waiting list

Slang used by private schools to say "no" nicely. Few people actually get admitted from it.

For people who don't know, the waiting list is a thing (apparently) that they have that they collect people if it is too late to be admitted for the private school. If someone drops out of admission to a certain private school someone from the waiting list will be admitted.

That's what they say, but nobody knows.

"We'll put you on the waiting list."
"Ah shit the waiting list!"

(10+2)*5

One of the ultimate focusing tricks to use. Let's say you have five things you need to get done. Make sure they're startable within ten minutes. Work on them for ten minutes (10). Then take a break for two minutes (+2). Then do this five times (*5). If you are not asian and/or good at math, this equals one hour. You will be surprised at the amount of work you have finished in one hour.

If you haven't noticed yet as well, you notice that you begin to skip breaks. *sneeze* what?

I've got these things I need to get done.

I'll use (10+2)*5.
Do one thing for 10 minutes.
2-minute break usable for anything.
Do this five times.

Luther

Luther offers the warmest hug, funniest joke and is super capable in putting up with nonsense chat. To keep him alive, you just need to give him chicken breast. He loves protein as much as pretty girls. If you meet Luther and he is nice to you, you are the luckiest person in the world

My life is complete with Luther.
