"We are the engineers!
Who the fuck are you?
Smoke, drink, suck, fuck, nibble, gobble, chew!"
Yes, that is just a small taste of the amount of insane cheers we have here at Queen's. I am totally having the time of MY LIFE. These past few days were just so busy and INSANE, and I have loved every part of it (except when my glasses broke, NOT COOL, but super glue works wonders! =D). My frosh shirt is so insanely dirty; it's disgusting and I love it. There's the oatmeal-flour-water-mixture on it (what we called Thundersludge; it hurts like hell when it's being whipped at you), and the mud that we wrestled in today (yeah, that's right). Tomorrow is what our FRECs (our frosh leaders; more about them later) GAME OVER, where were climb the famous grease pole. I AM SO STOKED. I CAN BARELY CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT. So what if I get to wake up at 6:30 in the morning so I can meat with my awesome frosh group? SO GUNNA BE WORTH IT.
Anyway, I should really start from the beginning, when I first got here. I have THE BEST floor in the world. It's the SUBSTANCEFREEFLOOR. Yeah, it sounds so lame right now, but think about it. You get your study time, and if you want to actually have a few drinks, you go out to do it. What is the result? There are no crazy obnoxious people on your floor who will shit things up and make you pay for it. SICKKK. And guess what else? We are actually sober enough to get to know each other. And even though it's only been less than a week since we've met, we are already so tight. It's so unbelievable.
Another good thing about Kingston, besides having the awesome school that is Queen's, is that it is BEAUTIFUL. We're right next to the lake, and the water is SO NICE. And I have THE best view. EVER.
Anway, continuing on. FROSH WEEK. It is officially the best week of my life thus far. My EngCut was sweet. So hard to sleep in and so hard to get out, but so worth it (my hair still have spraypaint all over it). We didn't have our frosh week start as early as everyone else. And there were commie frosh leaders being so loud and such asses, that it freaked me out about how bad ours would be, seeing how engineering frosh is THE WORST. And believe me, they are, and they are so sick. Our first introductions were so scary. Like, they were HARD CORE. SO HARD CORE, and BADASS. Like, wow. But then they depurpled after two days, and we totally don't even listen to them now. =)
Since it's getting late and I have grease pole tomorrow, I shall summarize and expand later.
The past week was just so ridiculous. Not even kidding. We had a "standards exam" which was so fucking awesome. Didn't know a single answer, but who the hell cares? Thundersludge is freakin' amazing after you get over the pain and the smell. TNL is THE shit. I love my upper years. Especially my FRECs. We had our cheeroff against the commies (who suck for money, guys, always remember that) and totally scared them off. That's right commies. I will insert a cheer just for commies at the end of this post. Highland games were SOOOOOO awesome. There is definitely no better way to get back at your FRECs than in a tarp filled with MUD. NO ONE was clean. I had mud in my ears, and I swear, half the upper years were so intoxicated. Not the FRECs of course, they're not allowed xDDD. It sounds gross, but it's the best kind of team bonding here. It was also here, that most of us realised that upper years aren't as such big asses. They actually care. It's just they like to be totally wild and pick on us, because they can. We are just this hugeass family where you can feel at home with any of these people. Plus, it is so fun covering a forth year in mud. It is not fun, however, being picked up and having the guy attempted to throw you on the ground and get you covered in mud. Okay, I lied, that was fun too. =P
And now, I must go to sleep so I may have the energy to climb the TALL TALL TALL grease pole. And in parting, I share these awesome cheers!
Alpha, beta, theta, mu!
We know way more Greek than you!
If x is one and y is two,
Is x plus y too hard for you?!
Queen's once, Queen's twice,
Holy jumping Jesus Christ,
Rim ram, goddamn, son of a bitch, shit fuck!
If I had the wings of an eagle,
If I had the ass of a cow,
I'd fly over to Goodes Hall tomorrow,
And shit on the Commies below!
(singing:) Shit on, shit on, shit on the commies below! (repeat while dancing)
and the best one of all:
We are, we are, we are, we are, we are the engineers!
We can, we can, we can, we can demolish forty beers!
Drink rum, drink rum, drink rum, drink rum and come along with us!
For we don't give a damn for any old man that don't give a damn for us!
This is THE engineering cheer for everyone at Queen's. Sick, no? We're sposed to have our year cheer after we sing this, but apparently, I'm too lame to remember what it is.
Night! Wish us luck at grease pole! =))
