bread

I HAVE FOUND MY FAVOURITE BREAD!

Italiano Italian Slice Bread, or something like that. It's so soft and squishy and chewy and sweet and moist and so wonderful...!

This makes me very carbolicious, also very happy.

washing machines

washing machines are great. they are machines that wash your clothes for you, in less than a half hour!

no, i don't usually do my own laundry.

here is a list of other things that i think are also great:
  • airplanes, because they take me to places very quickly
  • electric kettles, because they turn off by themselves
  • rice cookers, because they tell you how much water to put in, AND they turn off by themselves
  • dogs, because despite being inferior they are happy

pearson kicks me in the face and laughs

greyhound: 8 hrs travel time with transfers
airways shuttle: incompatible service schedule
company taxi: beyond area of service
regular taxi: $$$,$$$,$$$
asking for favours: simply unethical
conclusion: there is no easy way to get from waterloo to the airport.

why does the toronto airport have to suck so bad?
why does waterloo have to suck so bad?
why do i not have a car?

this is exactly what the profs are talking about. in sprawled out, low density cities--the classic example being kitchener--transit is not feasible and therefore the population is car-dependent. you cannot function without a car. this never mattered to me, until now that i have found myself as a member of the impoverished community, handicapped by the system.

how upsetting.
