Up to speed

Just to write it down somehwere because my memory actually does suck really bad:

Had spectra lunch on tuesday, was a blast, note to self, never eat that damn much burger ever again. Also, Kai's food doesn't take the fast and direct route from his plate to mouth. Small people eat more. You can order DTs for lunch; they show up on the chit. Also, don't dis DT's sausage lunch ever no matter how phallic it looks.


I have little more than 12 hours (most of which will be spent asleep)to decide what comic I will buy for my birthday. Oh the dilema!!

I'm almost old enough to legally drink, drive and buy cigarettes. Only drinking will shoot my liver in excess, really doesn't mix well with driving and I figure there are cheaper ways to kill myself than by smoking. More fun too most likely. Bladder cancer and the rest of my life having my pee collect in a bag really doesn't sound appealing somehow.


Smoking kills. Really. And if it doesn't, chances are you'll wish it had.


Won four straight games in Halo (slayer!)! Back in the zone!!)

New Computer

Cyanide and Happiness, a daily webcomic
Cyanide & Happiness @ Explosm.net

I wanna hatch a quater.


Well, after my last emo-ish random post, I have this to say:

SCHOOL LIBRARY NEW COMS OMGOMGOMG PRETTYSEXYNEWCOMSFROMACER.

Wait... Acer... oh. Hell, they're dual-core which means no more lag! Friggen yes! And I've sketched out the issue of the Spectra webcomic I was supposed to and the June hols are nearly upon us! Life looks good. :)

Except I deleted something like 70 hours of my Final Fantsy Tactics Advance last night by accident. Damn. And though they're faster, the school coms do still have the same old internet connection which won't let me get on DeviantArt because it contains "culture and heritage" (I kid you not) but gives me full access to blogger and is kinda slow (the way I'm kinda crazy). Still, fangirling over the new coms with Red was strangely theraputic. They have pretty blue flashy lights. :D


Wish I could get a 360 for my birthday... Yes 360, thou of the sexy clean lines, pure virginial white finish and totally kick-ass wireless controllers. Would that we might be together, playing countless hours of Halo together (because one day I hope to be able to kick Legendary) and waiting in eagre anticipation for a true god amongst mortals, Halo 3, to grace us with its presence.

I am fully aware I am completly insane. With me as grounded as I am though, I'm gonna count myself lucky to get Minutes to Midnight and watch PoTC The World's End for my birthday.

Everytime someone mentions my birthday, my brothe goes (in this incredulous voice): "18? You can't be 18! You're still so small!"

Damn boys; why do they have to be taller than girls anyway?

Meandering 1

Friday again, another week passed without event and man, I need another life.

Can I have yours? Mine's f***ed up.


Have to do a ton of econs reading this weekend. Red just had her econs test and it was bloody hard and she's taking an "easier" paper than me. And since we have the same teacher... Evil, the cool teachers are always the evil ones. Makes me vaguely glad DT doesn't actually teach my class...


If you thought I was a geek for Spidey, you should see this. See? I just wore my Spidey t-shirt and Spidey bag from Universal studios and saved my ticket stubs and had to watch the movie with a theatre of screaming little five-year olds...

So full of hate.


Remeber that one make traditional artist we have in Spectra? Yeah... I think the bunny girl's trying to turn him gay... crap. We're turning into a cesspool of decadence!

Anger management

Just found out that I failed my vectors test. Don't know how badly I did since we don't have the papers back yet but the teacher told me I flunked. Which is why I am now colosally pissed. Hopefully a little running with Steffi later will sort some of that out.

I don't even want to talk about the bio test today because I'll probably do hell of alot worse for it than I thought I did. Just like chem, the last bio test, the last econs test, the last math test... I don't know whether it's because I'm screwing myself over in karma by thinking They went well or if I'm really such a lousy judge of my abilities. I KNOW what the logical answer is (I always do. Sometimes I hate being bloody rational and logical) but I like to think it's the karma...

Now I feel bad because my blog is slowly being overwhelmed by the tidal wave of angst I swore I would never let engulf it. So shoo, scroll on down, pretend you didn;t read that last passage. Shoo.


I should be studying for GP but I've only got one passage left and I read the whole thing in effectively a day (twenty-four hours or so) so I'm feeling virtuous and lazy. Always a brilliant combination.

DIGITAL LIFE TODAY!!! OMG! HALO 3 BETA!!!

Only for XBox live gold members; f***ing prudes. I'm losing it for Halo though... My brother's beating me!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! My life is over! Damn evil little brother; I swear he's been practicing. I need to spend more time blasting aliens. I love how they bleed blue. And when they die, the Elites fire off a coupla wold shots that go in a pretty arc. I've never actually seen the Grunts explode though they're supposed to be carrying methane tanks to breathe... Pity. Maybe the graphics and physics engine in Halo 3 will ammend that.

I have $350 for my XBox 360 fund. Anyone wanna contribute? If I can get it before Halo 3 comes out, I can warm up for the 1337ness by wearing out my thumbs on Gears of War. A wonderful opportunity to fall in love with the chainsaw I'm sure...

Funnily enough, the main character's MarcusFenix... Tis a sign I tell ye!


I feel vaguely guilty for having done so much fangirling the main reader (Steffi)of my blog won't get but it's better than the angst, right? Right?

Dramatic intervention

Uh, I don't know why the title's what it is but it is so... yeah. Been kinda stressed/busy/tired lately. Betwenn the painting (which was fun), helping my brother study for his exams, designing three mothers day cards, an anniversary card, a chem and a math paper, it's been... yeah. Man, I need sleep.

Okay, that was my little whine-out. Time for more... fun stuff... *maniacal grin* I love being crazy. But I think I'm still a little too out-of-it to be properly nuts. It takes a lot of energy I'll have you know. Coffee helps.


Dinner last night wasn't much fun; though the food was interesting. I'm not exactly a stranger to fancy restaurants but I barely recognized anything on the menue. And as much as I like him, I never want to sit next to my younger cousin for a fancy dinner again- or at least until he gets a little older. At least dad got some good photos of the four of us kids. Including my uber cute baby cousin. :3


ARGH, this post is pointless! I shall end it and not waste any more valuable internet space.

Ensemble

Well, I had my first guitar ensemble class on Saturday. While I love the way the whole thing sounds (it's so fun playing in a group! I like how if I get lost, I can sit there and be quiet and nobody notices. :p Don't play well under pressure...) The only thing is... Roachy and I are the oldest kids there and the aerage age is... twelve?

Dear God, I hope I was never such an obnoxious little turd when I was that age. I'm pretty sure I wasn't but just in case I was, I'm eternally greatful my parents never inflicted me on a guitar ensemble class. Hopefully I can switch to the Sunday class... though it does mean I won't get my usual teacher. Blargh.


Did my LAST 2.4 TODAY. 15:03 minutes. It's not brilliant, it's a C and I have a vague suspicion Cheng Jie can't understand why the hell I'm not aiming for a better timing... What can I say? Running bores me; though I really should get back to skating. Before my wheels decompose from lack of use- again. Just the five-items left now and I think I'll gun for a. "A" for all of them. Just to prove to muself I can and also because this is the last year.

Oh gawd, I'm blogging about my NAPFA, how wierd is that?

Then again "weird" is a very relative thing. And I KNOW I can't spell.


Do you have a zombie plan? Mine is to hide in a basement with lots of tinned food and go "glarghhhblarggghygragh" any time zombies come by. Also I will not bathe so as to smell convincing.

Speaking of bathing: Hikikamori. Probably misspelt that too but it was an interesting thing we watched for GP.

Zombie

I FINISHED MY INK SUBMISSION.

Now I just hope Estelle remembers to help me hand it in. Been a freakin' zombie at school all day on account on having stayed up till four this morning to finish the piece. And I found out after all that trouble, I might get disqualified because although it's monochrome, it's not in black and white. I'm tempted to say heck cares since last year's winning entries were in full colour but this year's INK people seem to have their act together better than last year's. It makes me think about how in clubs and societies (as in all organizations?) every new generation/cohort can improve on the last's. But at the same time, it's very easy to get complacent and back-slide. I mean, TC used to totally pwnzorz Spectra in membership and rep but now... it's plenty different. I'm not saying they're worse than us but they've lost ground and we've gained alot. It's the prospect of the CCA hand-over that's making me think this. Spectra's come so far in the last year (less than a year actually since someone handed over the reigns to us late.) and I really want to see it go further. At the same time I don't want us to sacrifice the sense of fun that prevails throughout the CCA. I think I can honestly say that everyone in Spectra enjoys our weekly meetings. Some more than others, true, but nobody's there because they just need a CCA and don't want to be there. (Well, maybe one or two of the J2s are but we're on the way out...)

Jano wrote a damn funny thing. If I can find it, I'll post it up. It's... it's Spectra fanfiction. I'm very disturbed...


I like Friday PE. Either we play games or we do... stuff like today. So the drama.

Neeta reminds me alot of my sec four English Literature teacher... 'nuff said.


When's mothers' day? I have one mother and two grandmothers to prep for.

Argh, no Spectra next week for me; I have to go for my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary dinner.

Statistically Gay

Cyanide and Happiness, a daily webcomic
Cyanide & Happiness @ Explosm.net


Well, alot's happened since the last post. Spider-Man 3 was fab. Bit draggy at some bits but the fight scenes were fab. I only wish they could have fleshed out Venom more. The whole movie was just too packed, so it got draggy and the character development wasd patchy in spots. but I shan't say any more so I don't spoiler it for all you people who DIDN'T WATCH IT ON THE FIRST DAY. Hah.

Favourite quote: I like being bad. It makes me happy.


DT says we have to step down from Spectra exco somewhere in term three. T.T I knew it was coming but I still can't imagine JC life without Spectra! It's been an inegral part of my ACsperience- even when you-know-who was in power. (No, it's not Voldemort.)

We did a quiz in GP class today to see how masculine or feminine we are. I had the least feminie results out of all the girls. Even Red got higher than me... According to the survey results, I'm statistically obligated to be gay. Freak-eh. I'm more "manly" than Cheng Jie! I don't think that's actually something to be proud of though...


Hmm, lots of emotional stuff on Monday but I don't think I'm gonna talk about that. (Other people emo-ing, not me. I'm nice and steady despite my lack, sorry, absence of sanity.)

I have a chem test and a math test next week. And an INK submission due. I'm gonna DIE.
