The Unnecessary Prank

Time: 11:38pm
Mood: Tired..
Song of the moment: Gwen Stefani - Rich Girl

My sister Kathy is sick. So I was chatting with her over MSN this afternoon and she mentioned that she had a runny nose. So being the great big sister that I am, offered to stop by Shoppers to pick her up some kleenex.. but not just any kleenex.. oh no! The ones with lotion on them b/c we all know what rough kleenex can do to a nose :S So after school I set out to Shoppers to make this purchase for my sister.

As the bus pulls up in front of Shoppers I get a textmsg from Kathy, which reads: "karen..can u buy water??.yummy! -kathy". Flashback #1: yesterday, since I didn't go back to Markham this weekend and I hate drinking Hamilton tap water, I bought a 12 pack of 500mL Aquafina bottled water from Shoppers. So when I got this msg, I was thinkin "What?! She finished off all the water ALREADY??!!??". I figured, she was sick and when you get sick you should drink plenty of fluids! So I picked up the kleenex with lotion on them + another 12 pack of 500mL Aquafina bottled water @ Shoppers. Flashback #2: on thursday, since I had joined the Mac DB team, I had to go to this fitness training session which has left my triceps in excruciating pain (it still hurts.. I can't even tie my hair! It hurts so bad!). 12 pack of 500mL water = 6L of water = 6kg (at 4°C for those chem-eng geeks) of dead weight I had to carry in my backpack. So trudged home, with this weight on my back, slipping and sliding through the streets of Hamilton. I finally reached home, clumped up the stairs, went into my sisters room and painfully dropped my bag on her floor. I said to her "You're lucky you're my sister, and I love you cuz I just lugged 6L of water from Shoppers for you". You know what she says to me? "I was just kidding!" SHE WAS JUST KIDDING *sigh*

Kathy.. *shake my fist at you* I will get you back!
