One of the fun things about going to school is making new friends. Well, I was introduced to a new friend about 3 weeks ago. As you can see from the picture on the left, it's a vending machine placed conveniently in front of the toilets at the place where we have most of our lectures. Before you start laughing, please, hear me out. You have no idea how much a person like me needs a vending machine. Especially if said machine carries a large supply of Coca-Cola. It's just the thing to freshen up a dry lecture, or a hot day. For just one buck fifty, you can have a relatively lengthy chat with this new friend, depending that is, on how long it takes you to drink up 325 mils of carbonated liquid. Me, that would be anywhere between 5 to 30 minutes. Usually the former though, because hey, have you seen me drink? And there's nothing really that boosts up your cool factor quite as quickly as cradling around an ice cold can of Coke. Imagine the rainiest, coldest day of your life, and imagine me holding a freezing can. Wouldn't you ask me how I could drink that on such a cold day as this? Get my point? Yup. Nothing quite like a vending maching as your new friend. Cheers to future Coke-drinking days.

i'm sorry my 1 second wasn't good enough to have thought of a vending machine...
