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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
