Top Ten Best And Worst Movies of the Year

Best Movies:

10. Public Enemies - Johnny Depp AND Christian Bale, now THAT'S a movie.
9. Paranormal Activity - Scariest movie of the year (at least the scariest i watched)
8. District 9 - Awesome, except for the fookin' South African
7. The Informant - Weird, but in a funny way
6. Zombieland - Time to nut up or shut up
5. Inglorious Basterds - Haha Bear Jew
4. 500 Days of Summer - Best romantic comedy ever
3. Star Trek - Live long and propsper
2. Avatar - Best special effects ever
1. Up - Best Pixar movie ever. And that's saying something.

Worst Movies:

10. Terminator Salvation - Biggest disappointment ever. It had Christian Bale in a post apocalyptic world. But then it's directed by a dude who calls himself McG (Mac Jee)
9. Lesbian Vampire Killers - Just look at the name
8. Transformers 2 - Ruined the robot action with trying to make the robots funny.
7. Gamer - This was crap. Like Death Race, but without cars.
6. New Moon - It's a Twilight movie. Enough said.
5. Push - Had a good concept, but ruined it with a truly crap action
4. X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Completely ruined the Wolverine origin with too many characters and really crappy special effects
3. Hannah Montana: The Movie - It's Hannah Montana. In movie form.
2. Street Fighter: Legend of Chun Li - The only reason its not No. 1 is because i couldn't watch all of it
1. Dragonball Evolution - Perfect example of how to ruin something awesome.

thursday

apologies for not posting yesterday but i will make up for it with this. i had the worst day yesterday. i skipped breakfast (havent had breakfast in quite a while actually) because i slept in at 11, then realised that i couldnt have lunch because i had to go to the dentist so i went hungry for around 4 hours. And had to go to the dentist. Then i went to get a haircut (i hate haircuts) and when i got home i had to mow the lawn (i hate mowing the lawn). But i made up for it with migoreng noodles for dinner. :D

Office quote of the day:
Kelly: Dwight! Get out of my nook! (That's what she said)

AVATAR

On monday, i watched avatar at IMAXXXXXXX!!! It's about this cripple guy who gets to be this awesome amazing huge alien thing using mind control (avatar, not imax). The first half hour of the movie is the best, becuase ur not used to the 3d effects yet and it looks so cool. The special effects in the movie are awesome, because all the stuff looks so real. Sam Worthington is also really good in this movie, even when he's that alien and the motion capture is so much better than previous films, eg. Beowulf.
The story is a bit simple and its really predictable, you know what's going to happen half an hour before it actually does, but that sort of works, because you want Jake to ride that huge badass dragon.

An excellent movie with excellent special effects.

Rating: 4.5/5

Sherlock Holmes

I went to watch sherlock holmes on sunday and it is about the famously brilliant detective taking on a new case involving mysteries of magic and an event that could change the fate of the earth etc. etc. etc. This version is an updated version, and it looks a lot cooler. Robert Downey Jr. is awesome as Holmes because he's funny and knows kung fu. He sort of reminds me of House and Captain Jack Sparrow put together. Everyone else in the movie is boring. I liked the action even the bits where he explains what he's going to do before he does it.
Probably the only problem with the movie is the story. I really didnt like how holmes has to deal with magic coz you immediately already know that there is a logical explanation for everything. And he only does a proper deduction twice, once somewhere in the middle and once at the end. But the end explanation is so unsatisfying it doesnt really count.

So in the end its a good movie, but not a great one.

Rating: 3/5 (note 2 of those points are for robert downey)

saturday

muahahahaha, once again this blog is under my complete tyrannical control. You will now be subjected to lame boxing day jokes. Where does santa live in the north pole? In a box! (that's why its called boxing day, coz santa gets boxed in!). speaking of boxes, take a look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GkTu7JLLNk

Office quote of the day:
Dwight: The purse girl hits everything on my checklist: creamy skin, straight teeth, curly hair, amazing breasts. Not for me, for my children. The Schrutes produce very thirsty babies.

CHRISTMAS DAY!!!!! (friday)

YAY!!! IT'S CHRISTMAS!! i used to be really excited about christmas, but this year i almost forgot that it was christmas eve. probably because our christmas tree broke and we didnt put one up this year. i also think that it was when i stopped believing in santa. or just didnt like him any more. i think it was when "santa" gave me a maths book one christmas and i was like "santa you asshole, now i have to do maths on christmas". and i actually did. so that was probably my worst christmas ever. actually this christmas is kinda sad as well since im blogging.

well MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! (happy hannukah to falko)

Office quote of the day: Dwight brings a dead goose on Christmas
Dwight: I ran it over this morning. Christmas miracle!

THURSDAY

I will be away for 10 days starting on Christmas day on a trip to New Zealand. Once again I must ask you to make do with Louie's posts.

On another subject, my cousin wrote a Christmas card for me.


I wish you a fantastic Christmas and a happy new year.

wednesday

didnt blog on monday because I WAS ON A BOAT!!! but i made up for it by blogging on sunday. anyway, i hate summer. probably because its when the mosquitoes come out to sting you.
the most annoying places to sting you are:
your fingers
your toes
anywhere on ur feet because you cant scratch them when youve got your shoes on

the funniest places to sting you are (bear in mind that these are places where i find they are funny when they happen to someone else and not myself):
your balls, coz when ur in public, it looks like uve got an STD when ur scratching them.

Office quote of the day: I don't want people sucking up to me because they think that i will further their career. I want people sucking up to me because they genuinely love me.

TUESDAY

I am typing this from my iPod. Excuse that this is a late post. I am writing this a little past midnight. Went to watch Avatar and go to a boat party today. Both were pretty good. Nothing else to say.

END OF POST

sunday

Tomorrow, we are having a Booze Cruise. and it better be good. otherwise i will be very unhappy.

Office quote of the day:
Jan: I underestimated you Michael
Michael: Well let's hope next time that you estimate me.

SATURDAY

I'm a guy of routine and rituals. And so it is extremely disturbing that my routines were stopped for ten whole days. After coming back from annual:

• I had 4 unread xkcd comics and 10 unread Explosm comics
• I did not read my morning paper for 10 days in a row.
• I had not eaten any pretzels for 10 days
• my inbox had a lot of emails.
• I had not played any flash games for more than 10 days.
• I had not practised piano for 10 days.
• I had not read the word of the day on dictionary.com for 10 days.
  

And last but not least, I did not do my routine blog update for 10 days.

Good news, however is that most of these predicaments are being taken care of. Also, I got some other guy called Vincent Kong to add me on facebook. Excelsior!

thursday

extremely bored at home. So i sat at my window watching cars go by. have you noticed that most driving schools are run by asians? probably why we have so many accidents.

Office quote of the day: Twelve hundred dollars is what I spent on my whole bomb shelter. For that kind of money, this stroller, should be indestructible.

tuesday

YAY!!! it's the last day of school. time for the reign of the evil junior years to be replaced by the evil tyranny of the senior years. I am currently addicted to bejeweled 2 on my ipod and the office.
from today onwards, i will have an office quote of the day. and of course i will start this with:

Office quote of the day: That's what she said

monday

so today we had drama performances, which i thought went pretty well, and in typical louie fashion, i forgot A LOT of my lines, hence the awkward silences. Honorary mentions have to go to Leow, who did a hilarious voldemort (watch out, he'll eat your goosefeather pillow), pop for actually making the jelly with the stapler in it and also looking identical to dwight, and jessica aiiii for looking, sounding, acting etc exactly like Janice from friends. I don't even think she was acting at all! jk. Altogether, everyone did a good job, apart from the audience, who didnt do much at all except laugh and clap.

sunday

Forgot to blog for a while, and since Vincent isn't here it means that i am the sole writer of this blog. I am probably now also the sole reader as no one will read this since vincent is on annual and tim (who occasionally visits) also went. So i'll just sit here humming to myself. La di da di da.

intermission

I apologise for the lack of blog yesterday. To make up for it, here's an old Walter story. Please keep in mind I wrote this in year 7.

Farmer Walter

Farmer Walter was not a lucky man. He was a farmer and never grew anything. In seven years of farming, all he had harvested was two carrots, a cabbage and a potato he found on the ground. In fact, if it weren't for regular donations from friends, Walter would have starved to death a long time ago.

It was a normal day for Walter. He somehow set a fire alight, putting his house in flames. Using all that was left of his water for irrigation, he put out the fire. Then it rained. None of the water fell into his catchment because he felt the need to build a shelter on it to protect it from the elements. Feeling sleepy, Walter headed for his bedroom, only to realise his house was burnt down. So he slept in his empty dam catchment, which sheltered him from all the elements.

In his dream, Walter was walking around a fancy looking office in a fancy looking suit. He looked around and saw a framed newspaper article, with a large heading reading: "Lucky farmer discovers giant oil well." He scanned down the article and took note of where the oil well was.

Walter awoke, refreshed and excited. In fact, he didn't even notice the dam shelter had collapsed and there was a nice piece of shrapnel wedged in his skull. After crawling out of the dam, Walter ran excitedly to the place where he had remembered the oil to be. He then realised he had no shovel. So he called his dog. Then he realised his dog was died a few months ago, after he got the pesticide pellets and the dog food confused. So he ran to his tool shed- only to realise it was burnt down. Walter was then forced to dig with his hands. But he didn't mind. No. He was going to be rich. Even the germs spreading from the rust on the shrapnel didn't bother him. Now Walter could finally buy everything he wanted.

After several hours of digging, a black car drove up to Walter. It almost hit him, but luckily, it just ran over Walter's cat. A man walked out of the car, giving Walter a raised eyebrow as he stared at his pathetic digging.

"Are you the pathetic owner of this desolate land?" asked the man. "Because I'm willing to buy it for a small price."

Walter considered this for a while and decided to sell all of his land except the patch of land he was digging in. After doing this, he pocketed the cheque and decided to hitchhike to his friend's house to stay for the night.

The next morning, Walter awoke next to a highway. Being the lucky person he was, Walter got noone to actually take him on a ride. Walking his fat body across the roads, he reached the city in an hour, only to realise it was the wrong one, so he took a bus to his friends house.

Of course, this was when he realised he had no money. Sitting outside a television store, he looked at the televisions on display. A woman was on the screen reading a news bulletin:

"Oil has been found today on some land in a rural area."

Walter's heart lept.

"It was found in some land previously owned by a man named Walter."

Walter's heart sank.

"Strangely enough, it was found 2 metres away from the only piece of land that Walter had decided to keep."

wednesday

today we had the tsunami relief concert where me and tim thought of ways to do really retarded stuff like going on stage to tell the "How to save a life" group to fuck off the stage coz ppl tried to clap them off three times already, as well as trying to start claps and screams, and we just ended up clapping and screaming by ourselves. Oh yeh and tim wet himself today LOLOLOLOL WHAT A BABY CAN'T EVEN SURVIVE WITHOUT HIS NAPPIES.

TUESDAY

Faithful readers be advised. Today's update will be posted very late.

monday

Yay! My very first blog on this blog! So today, as everyone knows, we went to Luna Park. I personally enjoyed the dodgem cars and the wild mouse rides (which happen to be the only ones i went on). I learnt absolutely nothing about this experience except that the food was crazily overpriced ($12 for a crappy burger, some chips and a drink) but definitely didn't learn anything about physics, which was good. It was a good day, just wish that it was cooler and that i went on more rides.

Also, i hate how on hot days when you turn on your cold water tap, the water is hot. I didn't even need to turn on the hot water when showering today.

SATURDAY

I hate Apple very very much.

Well not that much. I just got everything to work now. I got an iPod touch, which I found very hard to put music onto because iTunes kept screwing up for me.

I would also like to point out that this is my 69th post.

THURSDAY

Today I got locked out the house so I had to break in from one of the windows on the second storey because all the ground storey ones were locked shut. My mum started shouting at me for this because she said I was demonstrating how to break into our house to any would-be burglars that happened to be watching me.

I seem to find myself looking forward to next year, even though I shouldn't, what with all the crap I'm going to have to do. There's all the stress of year 11 and my AMus, which I'm going to have to practise like crazy if I want to have any chance of passing in May. But optimism is good so I'll try to stay happy about it.

In bad news today, I think I'm developing a cold.

TUESDAY

It's meant to be that time of year right now where you can not give a shit about anything. Unfortunately that's not entirely the case right now which annoys me because I was really looking to doing nothing.

I watched Citizen Kane a few days ago and I actually found it very entertaining. I usually find older movies hard to follow, especially when there's lots of characters involved but I liked Citizen Kane from start to end.

Anyhow, those looking for some more things to read can go this site.

SATURDAY

I had the most amazing dream where the whole city was being attacked by massive aliens and I was one of the few survivors with a bunch of people and we went around shooting shit all day. Bad thing was that I woke up before I got to kick ass.

Word of the day today is rusticate. As in, being in an agricultural high school does not actually make me want to rusticate.

THURSDAY

My bored state of mind
is reflected in this crap
Japanese poem.

TUESDAY

Today I will write about things that give me the shits:

- People that like milk and cookies. Or strawberries and cream. It's not that nice, you just think it is because people on television do. Losers.

- 'This lame statement has been made cool by being a quote.' - Vincent Kong.

- On the same topic I hate one-liners.

- I hate it how people are so conservative with topping. When I want syrup in pancakes, I want to drown them in that shit.

- When people comment on Youtube videos saying 'This brought tears to my eyes.' DOES IT REALLY?

- WHEN THERE'S NO TOILET PAPER LEFT

- When you forget to bring your towel to the shower and gotta get some family member to grab it for you. Then ensues the awkward, half-opened door transferral of the towel.

- When a shiny new book gets bent.

That's all the shitty things I can think of.

SATURDAY

My expectations for the formal were somewhere between medium to good. Turned out the formal was great. I had a much better time than I thought I would. In fact I'll make a list of what I liked about the formal.

I liked seeing everyone dressed up for the sake of being dressed up.

I liked the weather, even though it was ridiculously hot.

I liked getting lots of photos taken, even if I'm not a photo person.

I liked the decorations.

I liked Mr Goggin's speech.

I liked the video, despite its excesses.

I liked the food.

I liked presenting the awards, despite the screw ups that occured.

I liked Vincent Tran's acceptance speech. It's good to sometimes not take yourself too seriously.

I liked many other things too, but that's all I want to write.

THURSDAY

LOL

TUESDAY

Because of bivouac, I was unable to post on Saturday. On Thursday, my scanner didn't work in the end.

So now here is a fresh post for all the faithful readers of this blog. (Hi Louie.)

Some of my favourite movies:

I was going to put more movies and actually write a bit about each one. But I really want to play Crysis now so screw that.

THURSDAY

This is a placeholder blog while I try and get my scanner to work.

In the meanwhile, you may wish to amuse yourself by looking at the old blogposts or something.

TUESDAY

Unusually early post today because I just drank the most amazing chinese medicine ever.

INGREDIENTS:
Fritillaria cirrhosa (bulb)
Prunus armeniaca (semen)
Snake taipan bile 6X
Menthol


I think the semen is just a bad case of Engrish but snake bile is still pretty weird. Tasted like honey but weird.

Anyway here's a pretty cool video.

SATURDAY

Had quite a bad night's sleep last night.

You may or may not know that I am taking part in some research study, where I gotta use night contacts for one eye and day contacts in the other. In return, I save more than $1000 because I get free hard contacts. Anyway, on Thursday night I accidentally slept with my day contacts on instead of my night ones, because I got my left and right confused. As a result, I got conjunctivitis. This meant that mucus would come out of my eyes and harden, effectively sealing my eyelids shut. During the night, I had to uncake my eyes at an hourly basis. This was quite unpleasant because my eye felt quite sore.

Anyway, this strange turn of events made for an interesting start to the day and at least gave me something cool to blog about. The doctor prescribed me these eyedrops to use four times a day. I also have to wear glasses now.

I really really hope that my eye problems and my cold clear up before the cadet bivouac next weekend and Peer Support camp the day straight afterwards.

Word of the day today is abeyance, meaning suspension or temporary cessation. As in, Futurama had fallen into a five year abeyance before being picked up again in 2008.

THURSDAY

Oh shit. My browser crashed while writing this blog. If I was clever I would write them all in Word and save them first but that reeks of organisation.

Anyhoo what I had written about before my window rudely closed itself was mainly about comics.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is probably my favourite comic series ever. Batman doesn't count because it's too big to call a series. Even so, the average quality of a Batman comic is much lower than the average quality of.. yada yada yada.

Calvin and Hobbes is the awesomest cartoon comic made. I haven't read much of Peanuts but this sure beats Garfield.

And my favourite comic of all time is Watchmen, which I won't put a picture of because this blog has already been made untidily longer than my usual posts.

With that thought in mind, I have nothing else to say today.

OH and there's this.

TUESDAY

I almost forgot to blog because I thought it was Monday.

So I was doing a shit today and I thought, how good is it to be human.

I mean, we're so smart that we've figured out how to wipe our asses after we shit. How many animals can do that?

I have a picture to share now.

Whether or not its scientifically correct, that made me laugh.

SATURDAY

I'm better now.

Thanks to a lot of Vaseline and Vaporub, which I apply like crazy on my nose when I have a cold, I got through my illness with minimum discomfort.

THURSDAY

Today was not a very good day.

I woke up with a cold today, which ruined my morning because my blocked nose and sore throat impaired my enjoyment of breakfast. At school, my cold also impaired my enjoyment of the maths exam. It also made playing gridiron unenjoyable too because I got that terrible hot-cold feeling by sweating under my jumper while shivering from the inside.

I really hate colds.

Maybe this could happen if I sneeze hard enough

In other news, the Word of the Day today is stentorian. As in, my cold produces stentorian sneezes. Expect more of these vivid vocables as I run out of things to say and flash games to review.

TUESDAY

Due to lack of interesting things in my life, I will review some more flash games.

Thing Thing Arena 3:
5/5: Really cool. All you do is shoot up random people, pick up lots of guns and make a big mess.

Straw Hat Samurai:
4/5: Controls are sort of clunky and gets repetitive. However, the visuals effect of a samurai slashing is really cool.

Amorphous+:
5/5 VERY VERY VERY ADDICTIVE.



It's kind of cheap doing this instead of making an actual post but I suppose everyone's too busy to read blogs anyway.

SATURDAY

Had a very successful Flash Game Friday yesterday. It ended up becoming Flash Game Saturday because we played for that long. Anyway, VT, Edwin and I went on Kongregate.com and played some flash games.

Seeing as this was the highlight of the past few days, I shall rate every game I played.

Clockwords: Prelude
5/5: Sounded really shit at first because it's a spelling/typing game. But it's actually really fun. You shoot letters from words you type in and you can upgrade letters and stuff. I know that still sounds lame but you really have to play it to see how it's like.

Pixelvader
4/5: This is a spaceship shooter type game and you can upgrade and stuff.

Toss the Turtle
4/5: Kind of fun but really slow.

Alice is Dead ep.1
5/5: Kinda creepy but really good. Very short too. And the music is great.

THURSDAY

I BELIEVE THAT IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER FASCINATING ADVENTURE IN THE LIFE OF ME.


I had an exceedingly good day today- I had bacon for breakfast, lunch AND dinner. Not so great today were these biscuits my grandma brought from China. They were these funny almond biscuits but when you bit them, there was meat inside. This was very screwed up. Who the hell puts pork in a biscuit?

Speaking of weird food.


You can buy this stuff from the internet from edible.com.

By the way, stop annoying me Neil and Falko.

TUESDAY

As promised, this blog will be about stuff I hate.

-I hate school. It's really boring.

-I hate it when people try to save a bad joke by making a big deal of it. I do this a lot but it annoys me when other people do it.

-I hate it when stuff doesn't work. It really really really annoys me. Especially when it's beyond my control, like a laggy computer. That really pisses me off.

-I hate these phrases (in ascending order of annoyingness):

• No offence.
  
• What a beast.
• Sentences that use weird variations of the word hate. Like "he's a hater" or "he's hating on me"
  
• i was bored (A customary note tacked on to a luvo or stupid internet quiz. Extremely annoying people may attach a ^^ )
  
• That is so true.
  
• That's deep.

-I hate it when people point out their own flaws so you can't. Not fair.

-I hate body maintenance. Will not elaborate.

-I hate cold.

-I hate getting out of the shower at winter. Or the bed. Or even a particularly warm chair. I just hate winter.


You know. I don't really hate a lot of things. In fact, writing this list just reminded me of all the things I like. But because this was meant to be a list of things I hate, I'm going to leave it here.

SATURDAY

I've decided to start blogging. I won't say again because all I've really posted on this blog before is dumb drawings.


To make this easy, I'll just write about all the stuff I really like.


This is Batman, as drawn by Jim Lee in the Hush story arc. He is very cool, because he's a dealer of lawful violence which means he can kick a lot of ass without being busted by the cops. He also gets to fight all sorts of cool villains.


My favourite villain of the all would probably be Harley Quinn, who's not there. Oh yeah, and I also like all comic books in general. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is pretty cool.

Anyhoo.

I also like flash games. It's a good way to waste time when you just don't feel like doing shit. Much more effortless than reading a book or even playing some real games. I can't really decide on a flash game but Bubble Tanks 2 and UPGRADE COMPLETE! are both good examples of very good games. Especially Bubble Tanks 2 because its still kind of fun the second time.

I like routines and rituals but only if I invent them. It's nice to go through the week and look forward to things like Flash Game Friday, daily pretzels, saying hi to Louie and telling Edwin and Arthur I'm not gay.

One last thing that I also really like is really pointless information. The more ridiculous detail the better. I think the reason I like it is because I feel good about knowing something that someone else doesn't. It's even better when I can use my useless facts to prove someone wrong. I once researched and memorised the entire history and culinary definition of the sandwich to prove to Raymond that an Oreo is a sandwich. Unfortunately though, he was right.

Well that's all about what I like. Those aren't all the things I like but it's a lot of them. Stay tuned for Tuesday's post on what I hate.

Bye!

vincentkong7@gmail.com
OR
alexander.c@live.com.au

There will be posts.

Perhaps in the new future.

The problem is not that I can't be bothered to draw comics. I've drawn 3 or 4.

The problem is they suck so I haven't shared them.

I guess this one is worth sharing though.

I don't blog much now because I think it's stupid.

But people seemed to like reading this so I will post stuff in the near future.

Most likely strange drawings.

Since my scanner doesn't work, I'll just draw Spidertran stuff on Photoshop. It looks better but takes a lot more time, especially since I don't know how to use it.

Update

Unfortunately, no SpiderTran. Just a lot of words in this post.

Like many others, I had my work experience week at Westmead Hospital. It was actually a pretty good week. The staff were all super nice people. Very helpful and so forth.

While at the hospital, I got asked a lot about what I wanted to do in the future. I just dutifully answered doctor and got a lot of info on what it takes to do medicine.

It is a pretty interesting career. The lifestyle seems great though it may just be that I haven't seen the long hours they work and the hard work that gets you there.

I guess now that people are starting to think what the hell they're gonna do with their lives, the things we think about are pretty daunting.

The doctor I followed around the hospital was really cool. Really, the doctors I met were all residents and registrars and despite what people might say, it really did look like something out of Scrubs.

Everyone seemed happy.

I want to imagine myself one day, rearranging someone's brain and saving their life.

Sorta busy but I couldn't help but draw this.

So I compromised and made a half-assed comic.

I still posted it because I liked it though.

The Amazing Adventures of Spider Tran

My holidays are so much pun.

Hahahahaha. Get it?

I'm in the middle of some disease where I constantly vomit bad jokes probably as a result of festering in my own company. I'm really self aware of this before my little sister has made a hobby out of pointing out every bad joke I make.

I know she's going to read this sometime so HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII :D:D:D.

In the Decembery part of the holidays, what with the Christmas and all I spent a lot of time at family friends' places. I also spent a lot of time with my obnoxiously cute cousin, who I can't call a baby anymore because he's going to kindegarten next year. The first thought on my mind as the New Years fireworks went off was to tell him to shut up with the dumb questions.

I've passed the majority of the hours at home passing the time reading and playing piano. My english tutor told me to read books by John Steinbeck and to my surprise, I've been enjoying them.

Ok seriously, I've been playing Pokemon. You can laugh but I bet you don't have a level 81 GIRATINA with like EV trained stats and stuff.

Somewhere along the lines I went to the beach. Wasn't that crowded, considering it was Manly but the seaweed was a real pain in the testicles. I tried body surfing and only managed to catch 3 or 4 waves out of at least fifty.



On the 8th I went to Cairns with family and friends. Stayed at a pretty cool 5 star apartment though we had to get an extra room because the hotel people didn't approve of our attempts to overcrowd the rooms so we could save money.

It was a pretty nice trip, despite the fact that it rained the whole time. Yeah that did lick balls but we still went on with stuff like scuba diving and snorkelling. I have a photo of me diving, it's pretty funny because the mask distorts your face so it looks like you're squinting while sucking a huge cylinder. I don't have the CD full of photos right now but I might upload later.

I guess the rain didn't make a difference once you were in the water. It woulda been nice to see the postcard perfect clear turquoise blue waters over a kaleidoscope of brilliantly coloured coral under a beautifully clear blue sky but I guess wavy dark waters under a looming grey clouds still did fine.

Scuba diving seems to be the most interesting thing I've done all holidays so I'll write more about it. It was pretty weird because I kept forgetting I to breathe because my nose was blocked by the mask and there was huge thing in my mouth. But once you get used to it it's pretty cool. The tank sorta pumps the air in your mouth so it pretty much breathes for you. The dive felt ridiculously short because it was just 20 minutes.

Oh yeah, and I got seasick for the first time. Ew.

I got back on the 12th. Nothing interesting has actually happened over the recent few days, though they will soon. My house got sold on Wednesday and I'll be moving to my new one in 6 weeks time. Yay! And I will also finally get a phone.

It's late (or extremely early) now, better go play some Pokemon and get to sleep.
