kool eh

The Producers was a movie based on a play based on a movie about a play.

OMG LOL and Sonny uz was rite, Nathan Lane = Timon. You know what's more surprising?

Matthew Broderick = Simba XD

Just watched The Producers. This is a historic event, because this is the first movie under the Denniesman Film Rating Systeme Internazionale, I give a A+.

I was just gonna give it an A, but I honestly had a smile/explosion on my face for about half the movie. It had great music, impressive visuals, lots of humour, and a Will Ferrell that didn't shout *all* the time. If you enjoy randomness and good Broadway music, this is definitely your thing.

And I'm not gonna apologize for the A+. I haven't given one out yet. This one is definitely deserves it.

I'm eatin subway.

Finished exam in like 1 hr lol

k bye

EXAMS OVER

EVXAMSAS OVER

Blah lol did you know that cheques have an expiry date of six months, so I technically lost $600?

LOL my Assignment 3 mark for CS230 (which I didn't do as last-minute as Assignment 2 but still worked my butt off because I didn't pace well and start early etc), went from a FAIL (43/100) to an A- (81/100)

Woo the power of emailing your marker and telling him he's wrong. It works! YOU'RE WRONG

What is a Chocobo?

The chocobo is a large, herbivorous bird with powerful legs and a sharp, sturdy beak. Its size and impressive speed make it the most popular type of mount in Vana'diel. Although too small to allow flight, the chocobo's wings assist in keeping balance and also function as a type of brake.
A species native to the La Theine Plateau, the wild chocobo were once seen racing across the plains in great numbers. However, as the people of Vana'diel began to realize the utility of this fleet-footed creature, more and more chocobos were captured and domesticated. A truly wild chocobo is now a rare sight to behold.
Adventurers mainly use the chocobo as a mount, but there are those who are skilled at using gysahl greens to have the animal dig holes, taking advantage of its natural instinct to bury food.

Domestic Chocobos

Elvaan have raised chocobos for use in farming, hunting, and general labor since before recorded history.
But once the practice of riding bareback was civilized with the invention of reins and saddles, the number of people using chocobo mounts suddenly soared. Merchants now preferred chocobos for long, overland journeys, and the military adopted the birds for use in highly mobile cavalry units. People began selective breeding programs as the chocobo craze spread to every corner of Vana'diel.
Recently, the chocobo races held at a local level have been elevated to the world stage, garnering unprecedented attention.

Chocobo Breeds

Destrier
These knightly mounts were bred in San d'Oria. They underwent training that allowed them to bear the weight of heavy armor and withstand the shock of cavalry charges. Destriers were characterized by their large, jet-black bodies and thick, powerful legs. With the decline of lance combat and improvements to ranged weaponry, destriers lost their place in battle to the faster coursers. These days, there are no remaining purebred destriers, but it is possible to see their proud bloodlines occasionally reemerge in the birth of rare, black chocobos.

Courser
The courser is a larger-than-average chocobo and is the most common breed found in the Kingdom of San d'Oria. They are characterized by their streamlined bodies, and long, graceful legs. They were originally bred for scouting duties, but their adoption into the military was accompanied by a general acceptance of the courser as an everyday mount. On extremely rare occasions, a red-colored courser will be born.

Palfrey
The mid-sized palfreys were bred to withstand the searing air and blazing heat of the desert. They are mainly raised in the Republic of Bastok and on Zepwell Island. With a relatively gentle demeanor, these chocobos are suited for those with who lack advanced riding skills. Palfreys are known to come in both blue and yellow.

Jennet
This breed of chocobo has been magically reduced in size to provide mounts for the diminutive Tarutaru. They have short legs when compared to other breeds, but like the Tarutaru themselves, jennets are capable of maintaining a rapid pace. Due to a request from the southern Mithra wishing to blend into the jungle, there are some jennets that can be found in a shade of green.

Rounsey
With its huge population of adventurers, Jeuno boasts more frequent use of chocobos than any other nation. The main type of chocobo to be found in the duchy is the mid-sized rounsey. The pride of the famous trainer Brutus and his family, the rounsey is the result of a lengthy breeding program involving wild chocobos. This program has produced a robust mount of somewhat unpredictable temperament that is suited for long, punishing treks.

OMG YES lol we get to ride our own chocobos we breeeeedddd WOOOOOOTTTTT
I want a Destrier :D

Garlic smells really nice.

Life is a melodic cell construction. You got your melodic cells, they can occur in any order, and the cells can expand and contract in a randomized and unpredictable way.

Or is it additive rhythm? A constant pulse, with accents in unpredictable places that don't follow a set order?

Or is it isorhythm? Is there an underlying structure to it all, and though you may not notice due to the harmonization of it and the different color (pronounced dumbly French), it's really all just the same thing?

---

From the etymological point of view, false friends can be created in several ways:

• Cognates. If Language A borrowed a word from Language B, then in one language the word shifted in meaning or had more meanings added, a native speaker of one language will face a false friend when learning the other.

For example, the words preservative (English), Präservativ (German), prezervativ (Romanian), preservativo (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese) and prezerwatywa (Polish) are all derived from the French préservatif. However, in all of these languages except English, the predominant meaning of the word has become condom, while the most common French word for "preservative" is now conservateur. Actual has a different meaning in English than in other European languages, where it means current or up-to-date, and has the logically derivative verb to actualize meaning to make current or to update.

First exam is over.

Now, due to that thing that we all signed today (for those of us hit by the powah cut), I can't tell you anything. Not even the colour of the examination booklet, or what colour I had to fill out my name and ID number on. I can't tell you the format of the exam or what topics may or may not be covered. I can't tell you anything... except that it royally screwed me over lol!!! I didn't even properly attempt 10/80 (that's 12.5%) due to lack of time, but I left that mondus question till the end cause I knew I was gonna suck at it anyway.

I also printed out the email which said I should print it out (the email, not the printout of the email, although I did print out the email which turned out as the printout of the email) but they didn't want it because YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED ANY PAPER WITH YOU AT YOUR EXAMINATION (so therefore they were like we'll take it, though we don't want it, and you won't ever see it again). This meant I spent $0.10 for jack all. Also, they were so stingy on paper that when I asked for more paper to answer my question on (cause I kept getting it wrong and crossing it out and then realising it was right and recopying my answer etc and soon ran out of space), the old stingy examiner lady just said "write on the back of your exam booklet". I really hope they are marking the multiple choice questions and formal answers together, cause if they separate them out, I'm going to find that old lady, and I'm going to make her listen to high pitched Mongolian Yodelling through her nose.

I'm really glad it's over though, cause it means I can now totally forget about everything. Everything. I'm just hoping like mad on scaling, since I've got stupid mondoplussage which is totally anti-whatIwant (since I got pretty awesome assignment marks, and actually passed the midterm)

We shared an examination room (all llike, five of us strange COMPSCI225 people) with History and Politics. It was like a swarm of arts students vs some computer nerds. Then again this paper is more like surprise-maths, but hey.

This guy who I met in the maths help room smelt totally like cigarettes when he said hi randomly to me today to find out what room we were in (cause he couldn't read OR didn't have the brainpower to realise I would be sitting pretty close to the examination room anyway) and I'm sure I rose his exam mark by like 50% cause he had a look at my awesome 5 page condensed course book (half of which turned out to be really pointless and irrelevant). Man I'm banking so hard on scaling; I know I'll definitely pass but I need a B. My pass is B. Let everyone else pass at C-, I need my B (I'm too poor) (even though I am now getting teh moneiz off the government)

I am still annoyed that 90% of academy don't have a clue what swing is. You'd expect musicians to know at least a little bit about all of the fields (classical, modern, etc) and to not know swing is like...horrible. Horrible. No, it's not really "that thing that Irish soloists do". No. I couldn't care less if you mucked up the rest of my piece, but swing? You need to ask that? You need to listen to more music my friend. (specialists are people who know a lot about very little)

TWO MORE TO GO. TWO MORE.

Okay, maybe it's best that my pieces never get played ><

I'm sure all the players of Academy think I'm some sort of crazy lunatic after what my piece ended up sounding like today...

I guess Sibelius is as good as it gets, eh.

Yes. My free bottle of sunblock is waiting.

Once there was a man
who had a little too much
time on his hands.
He never stopped to think about getting older.
But when his night came to an end,
he tried to grasp for his last friend
and pretend that he could wish himself health on a 4-leaf clover.

He said: Is this the return to Oz?
The grass is dead, the gold is brown
and the sky has claws.
There's a wind-up man walking round and round.
What once was emerald city's now a crystal town.

3 'o' clock in the morning,
You get a phone call from the Queen
With a hundred heads
she says that they're all dead.
She tried the last one on, it couldn't speak, fell off
and now she just wanders the halls
thinkin' nothing, thinkin' nothing at all...

She says: Is this the return to Oz?
The grass is dead, the gold is brown
and the sky has claws.
There's a wind-up man walking round and round
What once was emerald city is now a crystal town.

The wheelie's are cutting pavement
and the Skeksis at the rave meant to hide,
deep inside their sunken faces and their wild rolling eyes,
But their callous words reveal
that they can no longer feel
Love or sex appeal.
The patchwork girl has come to cinch the deal

To return to Oz, we fled the world with smiles and clenching jaws
Please help me friend from coming down
I've lost my place and now it can't be found

Is this the return to Oz?
The grass is dead, the gold is brown
and the sky has claws.
There's a wind-up man walking round and round
What once was emerald city is now a crystal town.

Haha. Have you figured out what scissor sisters really means?

Here's a funny story for you today, a culmination of a couple of things.

1) I sneeze rather often in the mornings. It's not that it's cold, or that it's dusty (although...then again it might) - I just sneeze in the mornings and stop somewhere about 10pm.

2) I was trying to go for a record of how long I could wear the same pair of pants without anyone noticing. I don't think anybody cared.

3) I often have cereal for breakfast, and I often eat in front of the PC holding the bowl in one hand and using the keyboard with the other while I'm not actively eating due to a lack of tablespace since we're untidy creatures.

---

Okay so this morning, I woke up, got my cereal, plonked down in front of the media computer, and all of a sudden I sneezed so violently, that half of my milk in my bowl and cereal went all over my pants. I started cracking up laughing, and then I heard the milk trickle through and drip onto the carpet and it was even funnier.

I obviously had to change my pants.

In Greek mythology, Charybdis, or Kharybdis ("sucker down", Greek Χάρυβδις), is a sea monster, daughter of Poseidon and Gaia, who swallows huge amounts of water three times a day and then belches it back out again. She takes form as a whirlpool and devours anything within range. She lays on one side of a narrow channel of water.

On the other side of the strait was Scylla, another sea-monster. The two sides of the strait are within an arrow's range of each other, so close that sailors attempting to avoid Charybdis will pass too close to Scylla and vice versa. The phrase between Scylla and Charybdis has come to mean being in a state where one is between two dangers and moving away from one will cause you to be in danger from the other. Between Scylla and Charybdis is the origin of the phrase "between the rock and the whirlpool" (the rock upon which Scylla dwelt and the whirlpool of Charybdis) and may be the genesis of the phrase "between a rock and a hard place".

Charybdis as portrayed in The Odyssey (1997) TV miniseries; Odysseus's ship can be seen falling into its maw.

The Argonauts were able to avoid both dangers because they were guided by Thetis, one of the Nereids. Odysseus was not so fortunate; he chose to risk Scylla at the cost of some of his crew rather than lose the whole ship to Charybdis. (Homer's Odyssey, Book XII).

Traditionally, the location of Charybdis has been associated with the Strait of Messina off the coast of Sicily, opposite the rock called Scylla. The whirlpool there is caused by the meeting of currents, but is seldom dangerous. Recently scholars have looked again at the location and suggested this association was a misidentification and that a more likely origin for the story could be found close by Cape Skilla in north west Greece.

Charybdis was originally a sea-nymph who flooded land to enlarge her father's underwater kingdom, until Zeus turned her into a monster.

Today, we all got a glimpse of what the world would be like if it ended.

My exam got cancelled. They were selling sandwiches cheap. There is surprisingly little to do without electricity...I was mucking around on drums and piano.

Ah. music.

Today I condensed our 150 page Course Manual to 5 pages.

This is how much I care about the exam tomorrow: <->

This is how much I *should* care: <--------------------------------------------------->

I am unmotivated, but at least I made a cheatsheet you know that's always a start etc

Can't wait for the holidays.... or can I...

Lol, now I'm a failure as a student. I just handed in my composition 3 1/2 hours late, because I remembered the wrong hand-in time...I thought it was 5pm but it appears it was midday.

Classical music really is great. Waltz #2 from Jazz Suite by Shostakovich. Man. That's some great orchestration right there. Oh. Oh man. I want my pieces played. I want to hear them like that. Like that! Full blown performances, not Sibelius. I hate you Sibelius, you sound so bad. I want brassy brass, earthy strings and playful winds I want the rhythmic drive of real people, not electricity and circuits and zeros and ones and assembly code. I want my music to turn from black and white to human and from human to eternal. What good is a picture if nobody's around to see it? What good is my music if nobody ever plays it? What good is a melody from a speaker, not from the heart?

Until I actually get a piece of mine played in public, I'm really a failure as a composer.

Clothespegs suspended in mid-air or so it seems on the lines in the cold winter backyard
The white moon half-full or half empty staring down shining down
I got the strangest feeling
Of how large everything is
And how small some things are

What was I doing outside?

I was pissing in the garden cause we only have one toilet.

lol but honestly the clothespegs looked cool

Just watched two movies, Broken Flowers and Primer.

Broken Flowers stars Bill Murray in his predictable "lets sit and look slightly dazed and sarcastic" pose, although in this movie he does a lot of "lets wear sunglasses a la Jack Nicholson (sp?)" too. It's a really ambiguous arty film that moves much too slowly with too many shots of a journey and not of a plot-point or critical moment. I guess if you enjoy watching scenes of random road movements and irrelevent shots of Bill Murray, this is your movie. It was still alright, nothing really gets resolved though. I say... B-.

Primer was better for me though it was horribly confusing at the start and the end. Plausible sounding, the start was really bad because it was just four people talking non-stop for ten minutes. Peaked in the middle when it clicks what's happening and how it's "working", and then at the end it kinda explodes and you stop understanding it. I did enjoy it, but not greatly. B+

48hr film festival. Superhero one wins lol. nothin better than J.C and his sidekick, Holy Spirit XD

pretentious one had really nice visual effects + shots. lol dunno why found it very funny

Steve/Dennis/Simon's was alright. better music than the coming of age film, and actually followed the genre unlike the "action" one.

Today, I almost did something potentially lifechanging and really really important. It was like..."whoa"

But then I didn't.

Yes. My maths lecturer is very important because he knows all about "Halin's theorem for cubic graphs on an annulus", "Planar triangulations which quadrangulate other surfaces" and "Obstructions to directed embeddings of Eulerian digraphs in the plane".

I didn't even know quadrangulate was a word.

Why is flossing so hard?! I can't seem to co-ordinate with the mirror and stuff where the floss should go argh

This morning when I was leaving the house, I opened the front door and watched my bus (yes, MY bus) run past.

Luckily the next bus is cool enough to get to uni by 10 so I didn't miss anything.

Does nobody else find it poignant/insightful that the Science building is the freaking ugliest?

Hey Sonny, hows your crit lol

How is it that Dennis, who has had like less than six hours sleep in the last two days, manages to play his solos with superb accuracy today at the Academy of Strings concert?!

I have a theory.

It is only a theory, but...

I think he is a superhero.

:P

You remember that night I didn't sleep because I procrastinated so bad that I didn't have time to sleep and spent the whole night/morning doing the assignment?

I got my marks back.

Today I resewed (sown? sowered?!) a button that was half-coming off my shirt. It was very exciting, I suck at doing knots but I kinda pulled at it a few times and didn't seem like it was gonna come off, so I feel good.

Where would I be without google!

OSCAR ( Out of School Care and Recreation ) did a review on our afterschool care programme today. The lady said she was impressed, so yay!

Nicola's leaving :(

[hey sonny we should get her something]

Lol today I wore the damn "Matrix coat" again. All the kids were like "matrix" and so was steve :o

Can't do holiday programme. I'm not here.

Okay some guy I don't know on MSN just gave me a link to this video he made.

The Dental service at Auckland University. Well, apparently it is heavily discounted. I'd hate to have to pay for normal service, then. It cost $40 bucks for me to bite these things and have him point some scifi x-ray thingy at my cheeks, and another $40 for the guy to stick a mirror and blow air at my gums.

Apparently, my gums suck cause they started bleeding. -_-

I have a hole. I need a filling. It will cost like, $120.

---

The main reason I went is cause the back of my teeth (ie where my wisdom teeth will eventually be (or not)) was sore-ish. He did x-ray. He says they are there. He says they will appear like within the year. Apparently they are dangerous. I don't have enough room for them. They can impact into other teeth, cause infection through partial gum exposure, or what sounds worst, create cysts.

I must say. For intelligent design, this design isn't very intelligent.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - A- (maybe A) Self-referential, humorous, witty, sharp, sarcastic. Brillant movie!

Stravinsky's Rite of Spring - love the powerful sections with the driving percussion etc. I don't see how this caused a riot (cause it isn't that far from what Holst was writing but i dunno) and it's rather tame compared to what you can get nowadays, what with your microtones and stuff. Very exciting piece.

Lol so kyute

I just had the largest freaking battle with the WORST adware/spyware I've EVER come across. I think I've won. But. Can't be sure.

All this for Sibelius 4 lol that'll learn me to randomly click things.

My laptop got hit with this: http://www.xeromag.com/vx2.html

Ridiculously vicious. It hides itself in the process listing (so ctrl alt del won't show it up), you can't delete it, it calls itself system critical so it still runs in windows safe mode...vicious vicious bastard. I eventually found an uninstaller from the guys who made it, but you never know what else they put on there.

At least Adaware (google it) says I don't have anything atm so...hopefully it'll stay that way. I'm just glad I don't have to re-format my laptop.

Note to self: you have a Dental Appointment in Uni on Mon 22nd May 2006 at 11 am (after your Harmony and Analysis lecture.)

I am going to be Vesper Lind (the new Bond love interest). After the success of certain films this year, they have decided to "shake things up" this time around. And so Bond will be gay. I play Vesper Lind, a German spy who loves trip-hop and raves. I assassinate my victims by forcing them to drink the fluid inside of glow-sticks. James and I meet when our hands accidentally touch during a "Licensed to Kill" seminar in Dusseldorf. We were both reaching for an "Ain't Misbehavin" CD that kills an enemy after he/she listens to the Act One curtain closer. Not very effective as a means of assassination since the target would have to make it through some really mediocre numbers in the first act, and like I said, it only works on "he/she's" which aren't very common in the spy business outside of Thailand. Can't say much more it's all very hush-hush...

Tee hee Zach Braff is krazy. It's a pity half of it is like "oh go do this this is cool im a walking advert"

my teeth hurt.

what is going on here

Wow. Macintoshes are very very sleet and sneeky. I have been using the Architecture Computer labs (cause Music doesn't have their own) and they have a Mac lab and its so cool. It's just... a screen...the rest of the computer is inside it?! And it took me forever to find NetLogin...but. I did it eventually. Wasted a lot of time playing around with GarageBand (which I think I will try and, um, get) but yeah it's awesome and I also figured out how to use iTunes to copy things to mp3 and stuff and firefox looks really sleek and all the text is anti-aliased and stuff and whoa my blog looks smooth and so does yours and yours and this is a really long run on sentence it was a good day today yeah i was like in burning sun and that was very nice but if it stays cloudless like this it will be a very cold night hmm i want to sleep but i dunno when im getting home arck.

In the movie The Transporter 2, there is this bit where the guy drives the car and flips it in the air, unhooks a bomb from the bottom of his car, and lands safely. Needless to say, after seeing that sequence, I was just like "wtf no way". (Transporter 2 also has the most ridiculous lousy CG plane ever but that's a whole another story)

In Mission Impossible 3, there are like 20 of those moments.

Well, I only paid $5 so. It was good. And Simon Pegg is legend lol. And Tom Cruise can't pronounce Zhou kai but he can pronounce xiao xin.

Auckland weather is brilliant. Sunny to thunderstorm to hail to muggy to sunny in the space of 10 minutes. I'm glad I dressed for coldness even though it looked like a nice day.

Heat Vision: Jack says the Earth's shape is mankind's curse, becuase we can never reach our horizon. I say a round planet is a gift - we can move forward forever, find a different horizon every week.

SCISSORS

The two words I never EVER want to fucking hear from you, especially if you aren't exactly a paragon of maturity, are "grow up".

Why the hell should I? Because you said so? All of a sudden you can throw experience and learning into two childish words? Why should I grow up on YOUR fucking time-frame? It's not like you control the basic laws of physics, or have any *real* control over me.

I admit. I am immature. SO WHAT. What are you going to do about it, kill me? Go ahead, we're all destined to die anyway.

Growing up is so fucking overrated. Where are the damn advantages? Am I going to grow wings? No. I'm not going to get, x-ray vision. I stand to lose a lot. I like being innocent and naive and curious and ignorant and imaginative. I've probably never had any of those, BUT I'll do what I want, on MY timeframe. Selfish?

Most definitely.

Do I care?

Most definitely not.

Don't you for one second take away the only thing we truly have; our individuality. I'll do my share of growing whenever the hell I feel like it, no sooner just because it suits YOU. If it suits me to suit you, sure. I'd do anything for you.

...if it doesn't, sucks to be you.

I realise this a very cynical and "immature post", mr immature omg im so immature well SO WHAT. FUCK. It's MY post. I didn't drag your candy ass over to the screen and plonk you down. You clicked. It's your fault.

It's not my fault I'm not grown up or mature. It's yours for expecting me to be.

GREAT BIG MASS OF SEETHING HATRED AND REVULSION. THE ONLY REDEEMING FACTOR WAS THE BUS RIDE HOME. And frankly, it's depressing still.

After a long and dreary boring day, full of neighbour chords, hidden classes and MediaTracker, it is 4:48pm.

It is raining.

I am not looking forward to the bus ride home. I woke up way too early. Slept too late. Whatever. You know when you sit there and you know you should be working on, say, your assignments which are crazily due soon...but you don't do them?

Yeah. That happened to me this entire morning. I'm sorry Ajita. I tried to work on the Assignment I did, but helping Thomas made me feel better cause y'know I actually know what he's doing (CS101 harrr)

And then I look at my own CS assignment and balk. Yuck.

I have to download a 100mb file when I get home.

I'm sick of University. If you crazy psycho uni people are tracking my keystrokes, now you know the truth. I hate you to the core. I pay lots of money, to be annoyed.

Although I must admit, Java is rather interesting.

Fiona McAlpine, is another matter (if she was a programming language, I'd call her Logo (haha nerdy joke, WIKIPEDIA)

But would I pay all that money to do stuff I don't want to do when I'm lazy?

Maybe. Maybe not.

I think maybe the point of University is not really about the learning, but the experience.

No, not the stupid "wild parties and fraternities" like they do across the Atlantic, which are probably exaggerated anyway (movie vision is not truth).

The experience of sitting awkwardly in class when a tutor asks a really obvious question, so obvious that nobody can be bothered answering - that's legend.

But would you pay thousands?

---

You can obviously tell this post was created because I got kicked out of the computer tutorial lab after the tutorial finished (which is fair enough) and I moved to the info commons where I can't do any of that programmy stuff and really, I could have gone to the CS labs but then I would have to transfer all the files when I get home anyway and WHEN I GET HOME I HAVE TO RECORD MUSIC AND DO ASSIGNMENT AND DOWNLOAD A 100MB FILE. I'm just wasting time until 5pm.

Hey look. It's 4:54pm.

Sorry, I got the link wrong. It's www.folye.net or whatever - swap the l and the y. As to what it is, it allows you to load up the models and characters and NPCs etc in FFXI and move them around and view them on screen, if you needed to do that, you know, to draw them or something. You can also load it up for animations and record with Fraps (google it) and do something like the FFXI AMC Opera thing (google it)

Kingdom Hearts II is so legend. [spoilers] About the only letdown thus far is that they didn't seem to be able to get the rights to the Lion King music and as such a lot of the cutscenes are really bland and poo - just goes to show you the power of music :) Sora is really cute as a tiger..cub? Is that the right word? And then apparently there is some old-school as Disney movie called Tron or something, must wiki it sometime, and then there's Pirates of the Carribean...the graphics are rather spectacular. It's amusing to see Sora and his friends plus the heartness in all their pastely bright cartoon-style right next to a realistic 3d world with more muted colours, and pirates. Also, the graphics engine itself has obviously had an overhaul - manages to support 1000 characters on screen, and there's a nice "distancing" effect that's more noticable in this second installment. (is it mip mapping? I forget)

The addition of the "reaction command" has been a great improvement in the gameplay too, mainly in terms of being visually impressive and adding freshness to battles. Unique monsters have unique reactions and counters Sora can use against them, mostly to his (huge) advantage - eg monsters that shoot projectiles can be grabbed and used against the enemy etc.

Gummy ship system has been improved too, just gotta see it compared to the first to know what I mean - lots more 3-d feel. Yeah.

And limits! Drive! Both are cool combat bonuses. I can see where some people get annoyed that the game is too easy - there are lots of tools at your disposal to fight your way through the game, reaction commands, Drive (where Sora combines with Donald or Goofy or both to become stronger), Limit (where Sora and the unique party member from the world (eg Jack Sparrow or Mulan) team up for special combination attacks), Summons (where the non-Sora party members get replaced by a summoned ally (eg Chicken Little, Stitch or Genie) etc etc

Costume design for the FF characters is pretty nice. I like the clean textures of Cloud and Tifa's new costumes, and y'know how it is with black. :D

KH2. It's great. If you enjoyed the first, you'll like the second. And...it has Jack Skellington in a Christmas suit. Yay.

Dear http://angry-365.blogspot.com/ (a.k.a Mr Angry)

Who are you? What the hell? How did you stumble across my blog? Do you randomly visit blogs? Isn't that kind of creepy? What are you, some sort of word or thought vampire? What are the odds you will grace us with your presence/presents again? How's the weather in FREAKING AUSTRALIA?

Love, Henry

[For those confused check comments]

Sitting next to some freaky guy in the info commons. Ack. He is laughing. Arr. A moment ago he was listening to the backstreet boys and laughing ;_;

---

Haha, only one person has gotten it right so far. I'm so mean and secretive etc that you will never know the right answers. Even if you got it right, I won't tell you, cause I'm a downright bastard. Relish in the knowledge! (or perhaps your sandwich)

Okay now I'm just wasting time in the info commons typing really loudly on these clacky keyboards.

Final anecdote:

Did you know someone got told off at the Tamaki Campus computer labs by a demonstrator for typing too loudly? They got yelled at and told to "change their typing ways" ahahahhaaaaaaaaaaaahaha.

Good luck trying to type silent and swift on any keyboard.

ROFL. FUCKIN HILARIOUS I wish there was a non-lamequality version somewhere, other than www.youtube.com

But lol go watch it. This is the kind of humour i like. yes. screw your online quizzes, learn by examples biotch

Hey Sonny, thought you might be interested in this:

Have a look at the gallery as well, and some of the sample creations.

And then, to help you with your painting thing:

These were my new year's resolutions in 2004:

1. Study really hard for 7th Form.
2. Get a girlfriend.
3. Be so totally awesome and cool that people will shatter into ice cubes if they can't handle the cool.
4. Eat healthy and stay healthy.

In my eyes:

I've managed to hold one true.
Two are irrelevant.
One I'm still working on.

.

Which is which?

You decide.

Today what I learned in CS225 CAN BE APPLIED TO STREET SWEEPERs.

Why can't 01:02:03 04/05/06 happen next century?

So it was a late night bus ride, right...cause 6.00pm is night-time, now. There was this lady facing the otherway on those otherway seats (you know the one). Anyway. I thought she was sleeping (like a lot of people on the bus) because her eyes were closed. But then, about halfway through bus ride I looked toward the floor and saw something furry. And then, I looked at it. And I figured out it was a guide dog, for the lady siting the other way. ANYWAY my point is isn't it totally amazing how they can get around o_O Like. It should be a celebration or something, I know I certainly can't do it with my eyes closed. The blind lady even knew exactly when to press the stop button, and when to get off... either she was counting the number of times the doors opened, or she knows the left-right formation of the route, forwards AND back.

Crazy.

Lol I got a whopping 90% exam 10% coursework for CS225 now. XD

Okay, if you even remotely know me, you'll know where I live. And where I live, pretty much across the road, is a small row of shops. At the current time, there is a cafe/restaurant, a takeaway, and a dairy. So my dad finished the last of the milk, so he gave me $3.00 to buy some more..

I walk across the road, and grab the milk from the fridge, head up to the counter, and the first thing the owner says to me is "Do you speak chinese?" This kinda threw me off guard. It's like, "what?". But I do. So I say I do. And then it turns out, the person at the counter (in front of me) is the owner of the cafe/restaurant. (Me william and my dad had lunch there yesterday. Sonny, you'll know this lady. >.> this is the restaurant I feel sorry for) Long story short I ended up being a translator, the owner of the cafe was giving information on her shop which she is going to sell (which I hope she gets a good price for because I feel really sorry for businesses that don't do stellar). It's selling for $48,000 and an agent fee of $7,800. She also gave info on her weekly takings...which I won't tell cause it's like, anti-privacy, but they weren't too bad.

BUT THE WHOLE POINT which I really wanna make is that the diary owner and I agreed that she should tell whoever ends up buying that store should TURN IT INTO A BAKERY. Finally, WE MIGHT GET A BAKERY. IT WILL BE RIGHT NEXT DOOR, pretty much. THAT WOULD ROCK MY SOCKS. (but apparently some indian guy is like, planning to open a restaurant or something.)

I only went to buy milk...

I have been offered a payrise of 4.5% by the University for my work as a CS101 marker.

How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Someday you will find me

Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams, she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye

Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide

'Cuz we don't believe
That they're gonna get away from the summer
But you and I will never die
The world's still spinning around we don't know why

There's maybe a way i can tell you
'Cos with everyday things continue
To get more compromised,
So who will fantasise
A new generation politicised

When things are done in our own name
Are we as much to blame?
Now it's become clear to me,
But only lately
And the ground is removed underneath

Shout it from the brink,
You're louder than you think

21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion,
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,
Could it be the greatest weapon?
Could it be the greatest weapon?
Your weapon

Nothing is certain except a memory
And that's soon washed away by a low sea
Now sit yourself down my one
And see what you become,
Ignoring a smouldering gun

The white dove's flown
D'ya think we're on our own?

21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion.
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,
Could it be the greatest weapon?

Okay, so compassionate consideration didn't exactly do what I expected it to do... the test I sat for CS230 was now rendered useless lol - instead of 60% 40%, the allocation is now 80% exam, 20% internal. I'm not sure which is better, I'm not sure if I still get plussage... lol. Well, at least I got a A- in the test so I kinda know at least some of the stuff ARGH

ARGH UNIVERSITY YOU ARE SO GODDAMN POINTLESS

Maybe I can set up a company where I just type up shit for people at $20 an hour or some sort of lump. I'll do it for you. Yes, you. And then, I don't have to go to Uni. I only like the CS papers anyway and I can type (relatively) fast.

*sigh* It's just money, and yet...

Yes, the guitar bass and violin is played by the same guy >.>

West Wave aquatic centre, not too bad.
Lifeguards >:)
I got paid to stand around for the whole day today, lol.
k.

If you want me to stop doing something, you don't want to approach me at hourly intervals, rub my back, make irrelevant statements and leave.

Just shoot me HAHAH THATS A TV SHOW HAHHA

Vietnamese Dinner.

Man, I cannot believe my dad paid someone $15 an hour to move all my stuff around into "tidy piles" (which basically means along the walls and corners of the rooms -_-)

Sonny and I had our pictures taken today. For some random pamphlet thing, lol yay

YEAH! i came home to FFXI expansion pack yay. I didnt think they would ship it until Monday o_O but they have.

um. work? today we made pizzas. with scone base. um. it was decent.

bye.

Tonight, I cooked dinner. That involved reheating curry from a crazy aunt (or something), cooking 3 cups of rice (I put too much water) and trying a new dish.

Diced chicken, mushroom and onion in a peanut and honey sauce.

Unfortunately, I used way too much peanut butter and didn't reduce the sauce with nearly enough water, so it wasn't as nice as it could have been.

Otherwise it was ok ok bye

Today I got paid $20 to watch Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire.

Also, to watch Cheaper By The Dozen 2. so cheesy and cliche, it'd be like having a perfectly yellow rounded cheese with holes. -_-

Just saw Saw. Rather clever I say. Reminded me of Crimson Room. (google it.)

But I find it implausible that characters suddenly remember stuff from their amnesiac states from teh beginning of the movie.

Observations from a bus ride home:

Arunim threw up. LOL.
Dumb bitch didn't know where she was going.
Cute Asians! >:)

Family Guy flashback: Black to the Future: LOL.

Most ridiculous test for CS225. I got my marks back for my CS230 test, 80.3 recurring...which I believe is *just* an A. I am not looking forward to my 225 marks, they will be low. No way in hell was I going to be able to come up with an answer for everything in an hour :\

Did you know, that in the info commons, if you bring along a portable hard disk, it will not let you create or write files into the drive itself unless you are sending to a subfolder?

file to E:\ ===> NO BAD DOG

file to E:\infocommons\sucks\thebiscuit\ ===> YES PLZ

I cannot think of why they decided to set these permissions.

The St. Patricks School is situated right next to a graveyard. A quaint reminder for fans of underage drinking?

ITS AWSEEOEMEM IT ONLY HAD 2 QUESTIONS LOLOLOL AND ITS AS ACCURATE AS well you decide

the Romantic
Test finished!
you chose BY - your Enneagram type is FOUR.

"I am unique"

Romantics have sensitive feelings and are warm and perceptive.

* Be a supportive friend or partner. Help me to learn to love and value myself.
* Respect me for my special gifts of intuition and vision.
* Though I don't always want to be cheered up when I'm feeling melancholy, I sometimes like to have someone lighten me up a little.
* Don't tell me I'm too sensitive or that I'm overreacting!

What I Like About Being a Four

* my ability to find meaning in life and to experience feeling at a deep level
* my ability to establish warm connections with people
* admiring what is noble, truthful, and beautiful in life
* my creativity, intuition, and sense of humor
* being unique and being seen as unique by others
* having aesthetic sensibilities
* being able to easily pick up the feelings of people around me

What's Hard About Being a Four

* feeling guilty when I disappoint people
* feeling hurt or attacked when someone misundertands me
* expecting too much from myself and life
* fearing being abandoned
* obsessing over resentments
* longing for what I don't have

Fours as Children Often

* are very sensitive
* feel that they don't fit in
* believe they are missing something that other people have
* attach themselves to idealized teachers, heroes, artists, etc.
* become antiauthoritarian or rebellious when criticized or not understood
* feel lonely or abandoned (perhaps as a result of a death or their parents' divorce)

Fours as Parents

* help their children become who they really are

Within the next seven working days, StudyLink will pay $3,000.00 to your education provider. This sum will go towards your study fees for this year.

If you've already paid your fees from your Student Loan, we'll still pay this amount to your education provider, and they'll refund the sum back to us. We'll then credit your Student Loan account with that sum.

---------=========================----------

In summary: I am $3,000 richer.

the Comic

(42% dark, 38% spontaneous, 63% vulgar)

your humor style:
VULGAR | COMPLEX | LIGHT

Yours is the most versatile and also the most popular kind of humor. You'll crack a joke about just about anything, but you're not mean-spirited or intimidating, so you can get away with it--even when, for example, you bust on Mexicans.

You appreciate a good dirty joke as much as next person, but, over all, you've got a brainier approach to humor than most. Now just go out there and write up a routine; it's likely you'd be good at it.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Dave Chappelle - Rodney Dangerfield

Yesterday, my watch randomly stopped working at noon. It just stopped, exactly at noon. Freaky! But it turns out a simple battery replacement will do. Actually, two batteries. Which is why it cost me $21.00...Went to um the Auckland Watch company or something along those lines, it was just a small corner shop off a side-alley-thing on Queen St. All three people I asked about watch battery replacements today told me about the "place near Wendy's" so I found it. Quaint little shop really, with lots of old antiquey looking stuff on the walls. Their clientelé would probably be:

a) students
b) tourists
c) old people looking to repair old clocks

The guy was like, voltage testing batteries and stuff though so at least it looked like it was professionally done or something. This watch was given to me by my mum so I guess in that light $21.00 is still worth it.

Signed up for Online banking. They asked me the freaking randomest "security questions", like who the other beneficiary of my account was (I don't have a clue, I guessed my mum...I think they were referring to my term deposit of 10,000 with my dad.)...and who my Banking Rep was or something. A whole bunch of questions I really wasn't prepared to answer...but I got it done anyway. HAY DENNIS IS IT FRE?E?

I transfered $1000 from my Goal Saver to my current and I'm planning to move that to RaboPlus. I can only do this once a month otherwise it actually costs me money. I found out I actually have two grand+ in my goal saver a bit too late...gotta wait until next month -_-"

I got $400 for marking my last assignment for CS101?! Or at least that's what I believe that payment was for. Crazy...it just says UoA Salary. $400 for the easiest code marking ever. Woozah.

I feel good and accomplished. Today, I talked to people I know (which means I am not a recluse), got shit done (like online banking registration which I was supposed to have done like, months ago - this means I can now transfer money to like Sonny or Dennis or whatever if I owe them) and, blah. Stupid Assignments over the holidays. STUPID PEOPLE WHO ASK FOR ASSIGNMENTS OVER THE HOLIDAYS YOU'D BETTER NEVER LET ME FIND YOU

ToAU - 20th April.

Laboratory now. Good bye, good luck for all your tests!

Stolen from Kuura. Har har.


The Laws of Anime

By no means all-inclusive and sometimes not even remotely instructive, the following is an enumerated list of semi-empirical islands in an ocean of conjecture. It is my hope that you find them worth a good chuckle. Have Fun and enjoy. McCracken________________________________________

#1 - Law of Metaphysical Irregularity
The laws of physics do not always apply. They can change at random and with out warning.

#2 - Law of Differentiated Gravitation
Whenever someone or something jumps, is thrown, or otherwise is rendered airborne, gravity is reduced by a factor of 4.
First Corollary If the airborne entity exceeds an altitude equal or greater than three times the height of the entity, gravity is decreased by an inverse coefficient relative to the upward momentum and mass/weight

#3 - Law of Non-Atmospheric Sonic Amplification
In space, loud sounds, like explosions, are even louder because there is no air to get in the way.

#4 - Law of Constant Thrust
In space, constant thrust equals constant velocity.

#5 - Law of Mechanical Mobility
The larger a mechanical device is, the faster it moves. Armored Mecha are the fastest objects known to human science.

#6 - Law of Temporal Variability
Time is not a constant. Time stops for the hero whenever he does something 'cool' or 'impressive'. Time slows down when friends and lovers are being killed and speeds up whenever there is a fight.

#7 - Law of Dramatic Emphasis
Scenes involving extreme amounts of action are depicted with either still frames or black screens with a slash of bright color (usually red or white).

#8 - Law of Inherent Combustibility
Everything explodes. Everything.

-First Corollary
Anything that explodes bulges first.

-Second Corollary
Large cities are the most explosive substances known to human science. Tokyo in particular seems to be the most unstable of these cities, sometimes referred to as "The Matchstick City".

#9 - Law of Energetic Emission
There is always an energy build up before Mecha or space craft weapons fire. Because of the explosive qualities of weapons, it is believed that this is related to the Law of Inherent Combustibility.

#10 - Law of Neo-Tokyo Omni Destruction
If Tokyo is ever destroyed it will be rebuilt and destroyed again.

#11 - Law of Photostatic Emission
Nearly all things emit light from fatal wounds.

#12 - Law of Inverse Lethal Magnitude
The destructive potential of any object/organism is inversely proportional to its size.

-First Corollary -
Small and cute will always overcome big and ugly. Also known as the “A-Ko Phenomenon.”

#13 - Law of Munitions Inexhaustibility
No one *EVER* runs out of ammunition. That is, of course, unless they are cornered, out-numbered, out-classed, and unconscious.

#14 - Law of Inverse Accuracy
The accuracy of a 'Good Guy' when operating any form of fire-arm increases as the difficulty of the shot increases. The accuracy of the 'Bad Guys' when operating fire-arms decreases when the difficulty of the shot decreases. (Also known as the Storm trooper Effect)

#15 – Law of Protagonistic Wound Reception
Whenever a 'Good Guy' is actually hit by enemy fire, it is in a designated 'Good Guy Area', usually a flesh wound in the shoulder or arm, which restricts the 'Good Guy' from doing anything more strenuous than driving, firing weaponry, using melee weapons, operating heavy machinery, or doing complex martial arts maneuvers.

#16 – Law of Overwhelming Antagonistic Formations
Whenever a 'Good Guy' is faced with insurmountable odds, the 'Bad Guys' line up in neat rows, allowing the hero to take them all out with a single burst of automatic fire and then escape.

#17 - Law of Transient Romantic Unreliability
Minmei is a bimbo.

#18 - Law of Hemoglobin Capacity
The human body contains over 12 gallons of blood, sometimes more, at roughly 450psi.

#19 - Law of Antagonistic Militant Unreliability
Huge galaxy-wide armadas, entire armies, and large war machines full of cruel, heartless, bloodthirsty warriors can be stopped and defeated with a single insignificant example of a caring/loving emotion or a song.

#20- Law of Tactical Unreliability
Tactical geniuses rarely display actions that merit their position

#21 - Law of Inconsequential Undetectability
People never notice the little things.... Like missing body parts, or wounds the size of Seattle.

#22 - Law of Juvenile Intellectuality
Children are smarter than adults.

#23 - Law of Antagonistic American-thropomorphism
The really nasty 'Bad Guys' are always skinny Americans.

#24 - Law of Americanthropomorphistic Intellectual Inferiority
The stupid 'Good Guys' are always big Americans.

-First Corollary
The only people who are more stupid than the big dumb Americans are the American translators. (Sometimes referred to as the Green Line Effect)

-Second Corollary
The only people who are more stupid than the American translators are the American editors and censors.

#25 - Law of Mandible Proportionality
The size of a person's mouth is directly proportional to the volume at which they are speaking.

#26 - Law of Feline Mutation
Any half-cat/half-human mutation will invariably be female, possess ears and sometimes a tail as a genetic mutation, and wear as little clothing as possible, if any.

#27 - Law of Conservation of Firepower
Any powerful weapon capable of destroying/defeating an opponent in a single use will invariably be reserved and used only as a last resort.

#28 - Law of Technological User-Benevolence
The formal training required to operate a spaceship or mecha is inversely proportional to its complexity.

#29 - Law of Melee Luminescence
Any being displaying extremely high levels of martial arts prowess and/or violent emotions emits light in the form of a glowing aura. This aura is blue for 'good guys' and red for 'bad guys'. This is attributed to Good being higher in the electromagnetic spectrum than Evil.

#30 - Law of Non-anthropomorphic Antagonism
All ugly, non-humanoid alien races are hostile, and hell-bent on destroying humanity for some obscure reason.

#31 - Law of Follicular Chromatic Variability
Any color in the visible spectrum is considered a natural hair color. This color can change without warning or explanation.

#32 - Law of Follicle Electrostatic Placement
Hair attracts electricity in abundance, resulting in two outcomes. A positive charge begets the spikes-flying-everywhere-behind-me look. A negative charge begets the hair-cascading-down-to-the-waist-in-a-single-sheet look.

-First Corollary
The hair of a male hero will always coalesce into thick strands that drape his face in a dramatic fashion, regardless of wind, the elements, etc.

#33 - Law of Atmospheric Chromic Diversity
The Sky can be any color of the viewable spectrum.

#34 - Law of Topological Aerodynamics
*ANY* shape, no matter how convoluted or odd-looking, is automatically aerodynamic.

#35 - Law of Probable Attire
Female characters wear as little clothing as possible, regardless of whether it is socially or meteorologically appropriate. Any female with an excessive amount of clothing will invariably have her clothes ripped to shreds or torn off somehow.

-First Corollary
All anime characters are resistant to extremely cold temperatures, and do not need to wear heavy or warm clothing in snow.

-Second Corollary
Bikinis render the wearer invulnerable to any form of damage.

-Third Corollary
No sort of clothing, whether it be a leather body suit or full body armor will in no way encumber its wearer.

#36 - Law of Quintuple Agglutination
Also called "The Five-man Rule", when "Good Guys" group together, it will be in groups of five. The five basic positions are, which are the Hero/leader, His Girlfriend, His Rival/Best Friend, a hulking Brute, and the Kid/Genius

#37 - Law of Extra Dimensional Capacitance
All anime characters have an extra dimensional storage space of variable volume somewhere on their person from which they can instantly retrieve any object at a moment's notice.

-First Corollary
The most common item stored, for females, is a heavy mallet, which can be used with unerring accuracy on any male who deserves it. Other common items include costumes/uniforms, power suits/armor, and large bazookas.

#38 - Law of Minimum Corneal Volume:
Eyeballs may make up no less than one sixth of the face's total surface area. More so if the case is a blonde woman.

#39 - Law of Hydrostatic Emission
Eyes contain several gallons of water, which may be instantaneously released at high pressure through large tear ducts. The actual volume of water contained in the eyes is unknown, as there is no evidence to suggest that these reservoirs are actually capable of running out. The reason water tends to collect in the eyes is because Anime characters only have one large sweat gland, which is located at the back of the head.

#40 - Law of Venerable Comedic Interpose
Comic relief comes in the form of a short, bald, wise, dirty old man.

#41 - Law of Active Female Attraction
A male character's attractiveness to women is inversely proportional to how active he peruses them.

#42 – Law of the Hidden Persona
Any person who wishes his/her identity to remain secret will invariably succeed regardless of, or lack there-of, actual Disguise

-First Corollary
The difficulty of recognizing the individual is inversely proportional to the complexity of the disguise

#43 - The Law of Inverse Training Time
A person who has been training for 30 years is never as good as someone who has been training for 1 month.

#44 - Law of the Rushing Background Effect
Whenever something dramatic occurs, a survival instinct engages, thus rendering all incoming stimulus that is not directly and immediately important to the dramatic situation at hand a meaningless blur. Due to the increase in brain activity and adrenaline levels in the blood stream, the scene is played out in slow motion.

#45 - The Law of Instant Recuperative Measures
Whenever a character is injured in a non-lethal way, from a non-lethal combatant Band-Aids will always instantly appear on the wounded individual (and always in pairs, set in a cross fashion) these bandages will then disappear by the characters next screenshot.

#46 - Law of Universal Edge Defense
Any projectile attack, from a blast of magic to a hail of bullets, can be easily defended against by holding a suitably cool-looking sword or other bladed weapon between the attacker and defender so that the edge cuts into the incoming attack(s), causing the halves to go flying harmlessly past the defender.

#47 - Law of Celestial Lighting Factor
At a dramatically correct moment, a hero can summon a sun/moon/halo to appear behind him to cause a dramatic silhouette.

#48 – Law of The Next Season
No Matter how many times you have saved the planet/universe, there will always be another villain to replace the one you just defeated

#49 - The Law of Necromantic Power Increase
The hero will invariably not have the power to defeat the enemy in the first battle and thus will succumb to defeat or death. From this defeat the hero will receive insight and an exponential increase in power that will make him far stronger than the enemy. (This is known as the Sayian Affect). The Power increase will invariably be surpassed by the next opponent

#50 - The Law of Courteous Manifestation of Energy
Any character can spend an entire episode charging their energy for an attack and have no adverse action be taken by their opponent.

#51 - The Law of Ki Blasts
The time it takes a character to learn an attack is inversely proportional to its power

-First Corollary
The size of a blast is directly proportional to the time it takes to perform it.

-Second Corollary
The first time a character performs a “Ki” attack it can take several Minuets to gather the proper energy, but ever subsequent time it can released instantly

#52 - The Law of Dramatic Stare-Downs
Anytime the hero is entering a major fight with the villain, they will stare at each other for at least two episodes.

#53 - The Law of Exponential Damage Attraction Increase
Big bulky guys are exponentially more likely to be harmed for the sake of the girl or for the sake of the greater cause than anyone else

#54 - Law of Non-Repercussive Damage
Any damage dealt by a fighter-type character will not adversely affect him or his equipment (i.e., the character in question will be able to cut through stone or steel without damaging his sword, be able to punch through solid walls without injuring his knuckles, wrist or arm, and be able to administer several head-butts in quick succession with no ill effects, the latter of which being known as the "Kibagami Jubei Effect").

#55 - The Law of Universal Linguistics
No matter where anyone is they always speak the same language as the native people.

#56 – Law of Syllabic Destructiveness
The More syllables in the name of the attack is directly proportional to how impressive the attack looks and how much damage it causes

-First Corollary
Any Attack over 10 syllables will normally be unstoppable/undefeatable or guaranteed to hit/kill.

#57 – Law of Ultimate Attacks
Any attack that is specified as “The Ultimate Attack” can not be overcome by any means, no matter how obvious the weak points. If anyone discerns the weak point, a suitable “second stage” is then produced making the attack even better.

#58 – Law of The Universal Greeting
“Bah weep granah weep ninni bong”. It works every time.

Flash - Ah - Saviour of the universe
Flash - Ah - He'll save ev'ry one of us
Seemingly there is no reason for these
Extraordinary intergalactical upsets (ha ha ha)
What's happening Flash?
Only Dr Hans Zarkov formerly at N A S A
Has provided any explanation
Flash - Ah - He's a miracle
This mornings unprecedented solar eclipse
Is no cause for alarm
Flash - Ah - King of the impossible
He's for ev'ry one of us
Stand for ev'ry one of us
He'll save with a mighty hand
Ev'ry man ev'ry woman ev'ry child
With a mighty Flash
General Kaka Flash Gordon approaching
What do you mean Flash Gordon approaching?
Open fire all weapons
Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body

Flash - Ah
Gordon's alive
Flash - Ah - He'll save ev'ry one of us
Just a man with a man's courage
He knows nothing but a man
But he can never fail
No one but the pure in heart
May find the golden grail oh oh oh oh
Flash Flash I love you
But we only have fourteen hours to save the Earth

Had a good bus ride home today. Only took 40 mins. Handed in CS and music assignments.

The bus driver was speedy as! If i was old and weak etc i would have hated it but because I'm a young thrillseeking person (lol) it was very cool. I swear he got to 100 down the pakuranga highway lol

And he also checked stages! Don't throw away those ticket stubs~

Don't have a clue whether it works or not.

Just watched V for Vendetta.

SPOILERS (highlight only when you have seen the movie)
When the little girl in the V mask gets shot it's so sad...
The V idea multiplied. Haha, kinda like a virus. Great visual image :o
I personally think he has a lot of really kool artsy hey lines. Or maybe it is just his alluring voice.

Similar to Equilibrium (crazy fighting, totalitarian oppression government based upon fear, rebellion) except 92,123,842 times better. Surprised at the lack of action, more of a thinky exercise. This movie can come close to The Matrix, except maybe even better in the case where you can't make rubbish sequels out of it. V died. Neo didn't.

I obviously do not have to say "this is just my opinion", because this is my blog, and I can say whatever I damn well feel like saying.

Under the Steve and Dennis Film Rating and Classifications Guide, V for Vendetta gets: A

Here is the chorus from a song called Girls and Boys by Blur. Yes, this is the same band that did Song 2.

Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they’re girls
Who do girls like they’re boys
Always should be someone you really love

The Drinking Horn is really sad.

Jason Feuerstien is in like, half the pictures.

The Drinking Horn involves senseless acts of nudity and projectile vomit.

How puerile.

NAUGHTY PRINCE HARRY

HOW DARE YOU VISIT A LAP-DANCE PLACE OR WHATEVER

DONT YOU KNOW YOU ARE ROYALTY

YOU SHOULD SIT AT HOME AND SIP TEA WITH YOUR PINKY OUT

I DONT CARE IF YOU THINK YOU ARE A YOUNG RAVING TEENAGER

I DONT CARE IF OTHER STRANGE OLD MEN FROM ALL OVER THE PLACE GET TO ENJOY THE PLEASURES OF LAP-DANCE PARLOURS

YOU ARE NOBLE SO YOU CAN'T

I TELL YOU.

NEXT TIME YOU DO IT I SHALL BE VERY ANGRY AT YOU

AND ALL THE NEWSPAPERS WILL MAKE IT A HEADLINE

Wheelchair rugby is actually a sport.

IM SORRY RAYMOND it must have looked like we stole stuff but I can promise you we didn't. I will explain fully tomorrow.

IM SORRY DENNIS I didnt have my mobile on me so I only got your txt that you and Ajita would be late when I got back home.

IM SORRY CHERYL for being mean to you all through dinner. You can say tomato however you like.

IM SORRY KATHERINE for making you second guess your decision to buy deoderant.

IM SORRY ANT because your name is shared with an insect har har

Today for lunch, I had a ham and lettuce sandwich, with buttered sesame bread and a honey mustard dressing, with a cup of juice and some cheesecake.

The delicious (but messy) shepherd's pie has been finished. We have some strange savoury cake thing now.

There are carrots in the fridge.

In a few minutes, I will have a shower. This involves getting naked, because I don't like wetting my clothes unless they are in the washing machine. I am going to use the random Dove shampoo, which contains urea which is present in your urine.

And then, I might decide to use the red Egyptian Cotton towel to dry myself. I am not very good at drying my hair. The red towel likes to molt and leave strands of fabric over my face.

It is 1:28pm.

I still miss you. I hope everything is nice and warm and comforting.

LOL.

For those of you who were too lazy (haha which should be everyone)

The video below basically is of the following thing that happened:

World of Warcraft. Some person died in real life. They had a on-line funeral within World of Warcraft. To be respectful everyone attending the funeral is unarmed, and only wearing black robes. A bunch of guys come along, crash the funeral and kill everyone.

SURREAL SUBTEXT OMG

Sad, hilarious, and depressing ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

Haters guide to Supermarkets (Craccum #4): GOLD.

I know know how to solve linear homogeneous recurrence relations with constant coefficients.

My life is complete.

Dove Revitalizing Shampoo contains Urea. This compound is also present in your urine.

Okay so maybe I got it wrong, $25 per exam. Tests are free.

Counsellors are a weird bunch. It must be hard if you've been desensitised to stuff, to have to fake sympathy. Or something. How do you really know anyway. I sat still and said nothing, and neither did she.

It looks like I only have two tests though, one of which is multiple choice AND true or false. OH SNAP. The other one is hellishly hard and I'm gonna screw over so bad, considering I'm looking at the Assignment right now and being confused.

Also, Fiona (for Music 200, Harmony and Analysis) marks like a devil. I handed it in yesterday and got it back today. I got A-.

o_O

+ I saw a rather large monitor in a recycling bin.
+ I saw Cherry and Dickson (and yes, business as usual.)

You know that thing you do with people walking the opposite direction to you where you both spaz out? Yeah, I was involved in one today, only that the other person was on a bike and I managed to make them fall off their bike.

I also felt really independant and powarful until my foot caught on a bit of concrete and I almost fell over.

I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

Compassionate Consideration is expensive -_- $25 per paper.

:( I don't know why but it just seems rude to be annoyed at having to wake up a little earlier and spending a little time for someone you really liked, and not see the stupidity of plate-destruction.

MCSO CONECERT. Not too bad, random band KICK (who apparently perform at Sky city if i remember the posters along the bus route home back properly) (they are a cover band that would explain all the covers) and the MCSO play together, not too bad, non...surprise of the night was the reperformance of Twist and Shout when the conductor plays WITH the drummer and they duo a solo. If that made sense. Well, maybe you had to see it to believe it.

And then met this person called John and then went to Rios and the counter guy was a dick, it was rather funny standing there listening to him swear in Taiwanese and Mandarin whilst I imagine he thought I was oblivious. Non.

Anyway. This is rambly and wasting time so I will stop now, thanks guys (you know who you are)

Did you know the word Guy comes from Guy Fawkes? Bet you didn't.

Here is a picture of Dragonfruit.
