welcome to transcription hell

why did i have to do so many interviews? why did i have to choose an interview-based research dissertation? blah to me! you all should have warned me how paintful it would be to sit alone in my room and type away tediously!

anyway, i'm caught in transcription hell. this means that i procrastinate A LOT by doing random things like: cleaning my flat, reorganizing all my papers, making too many cups of tea, sending e-mails and then cleaning my flat again. i also spend a lot of time reading the news. so, in a tiny segment i like to call 'one line each' here's my take on current events... (mostly canadian)

myrian bedard: so, just because you won an olympic medal it's somehow now ok to lie?
blair and gadhafi: i see, so some lunatic hippie terrorists are good for peace
gagliano: and the oscar goes to...
ralph goodale: sure, it was boring- but what did we expect from a boring wester politician? i also love the bird of paradise they made him wear to 'spice up' his outfit!
the stupid pyjama story in winnipeg: this is when i think there should be a test for parenting
john kerry: umm, the republicans called- they want their party membership card back
the mapleleafs: thank god, the aliens have given me back my team so maybe they can start playing the sport again!
the bid for a new canadian holiday... in february: it's kind of like a legislated snow day
microsoft and the eu: see, when you own everything that's what we in the economic world call a 'monopoly' ...

and with that, i'm outta here... back to transcription hell
