Yesterday, this is what my mouth looked like.
($5,000)
Today, I did this.
($5,000) <--- $80
Next week, it will look like this.
($5,080) <-- $200
---
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.

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.

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...

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.

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

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.

These were my new year's resolutions in 2004:
I've managed to hold one true.
Two are irrelevant.
One I'm still working on.
.
Which is which?
You decide.
In my eyes:
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.
I've managed to hold one true.
Two are irrelevant.
One I'm still working on.

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.
Crazy.

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...

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.

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...

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

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?

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.

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!

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.

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.
Information and artistic inspiration for these laws was borrowed, some in full context, from these locations:

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~

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

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.

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.

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.

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-.

+ 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.

Happy birthday mum! We had a really nice cheesecake (this is the Malaysian style one, which isn't solid but rather crumbly, and is unmistakably cheesey) and it had fruits, chocolate pieces, pretty cream flowers.
Ah. Who knows...what the future holds....
everything is so mundane, isn't it?
"what flavour tea should i have"
"oh man imma fail this paper"
this is ranting again (stop it you bastard)
ok
bye

The worlds friendliest cat, I met last night during the warding night (or wahtever you actually call it...) Me and Kim played with it, but it left of its own accord, I musta been boring :P I don't blame the cat, I had lots on my mind.
McFunerals, eh? I guess it's economical and space saving as a Bhuddist thing, but then why are there over 100 million dollars worth of storage bits in that one room? Surely if they're economical they won't need that much money?
Who knows. ^^"

Somewhere, there lies an unkempt garden, full of weeds and not much else. One day, a kindly stranger passes by and plants some seeds. Over the next few years they lovingly and selflessly tend to the garden, removing the weeds, fertilizing, watering, taking good care of the garden. Sprouts begin to grow, from seed to sprout, sprout to sapling...but just as the plants almost reach fruition, the stranger is called to a very different place, and can never see the final results of their garden which they have put so much work and effort into.
The plants are eternally grateful. Thank you for everything.

According to the national bank, the Thoroughbred Goal Saver offers a premium interest rate of 6% or whatever.
I had $1500 at the start of February in the account. They say I qualified for premium interest.
1% of $1500, is $15.
I only received $8 dollars of interest.
That isn't even CLOSE to 6%.
Can some smart economics guy explain this to me?

A:
B :
- You should respect C's belief, for all beliefs are of equal validity and cannot be denied.
B :
- I deny that belief of yours and believe it to be invalid.
- According to your statement, this belief of mine (1) is valid, like all other beliefs.
- However, your statement also contradicts and invalidates mine, being the exact opposite of it.
- The conclusions of 2 and 3 are incompatible and contradictory, so your statement is logically absurd.

So you want to play "flatting"?
So you want to leave shit in the sink and pretend it will wash itself, eat my pizza and not defrost your own, then completely refuse to buy milk and claim that you don't have to because "you washed the clothes today" even though me and William load the machine up pretty often and wash your clothes too?
From now on, you can:
---
The power set of a set is a set containing all the subsets. For example,
If A = {0,1}
p(A) = { {0}, {1}, {0,1}, Ø}
Ø is the empty set (a set containing nothing).
The power set of Ø is:
p(Ø) = {Ø, {Ø}}
p({Ø,{Ø}}) = { {Ø}, {{Ø}}, {Ø,{Ø}}, Ø}
So for an empty set, you sure can get a lot of stuff.

Isn't it amazing how one simple act of kindness can just brighten your day? (stupid cheezy quote)
I was standing in the rain waiting for the 52 to come along...board says its DUE....five minutes, it hasn't appeared....ten...it's getting cold and I'm getting pretty wet: but then! Some guy from Macleans in my maths class pops up and offers to share his umbrella. Yay!
So even though the bus was being a bitch for showing up 10 minutes late especially when it's raining, I felt okay.

Got a free LiftPlus and some Microsoft software, and yet another stupid elastic wristband thing. I have a feeling it's gonna die out soon, but the companies will take just as long to catch off as they took to catch on.

Tutorial, say stupid things, feel like a dork. At least the tutor was nice.

If you didn't manage to get last week's Sudoku complete, you're gonna shit yourself over the one they gave out this week. I only managed to fill in about five numbers using logic, some of which was pretty tricky.
Then, I cheated, and there is only one unique answer.
What idiots play hackey sack right at the entrance to a stairwell?! Bastards.

Just came back from The Wedding, a Ballet which the narration was written by Witi Imahahehaehaheraerhararharaea. Bulletpoint thoughts:
Fight scene in ballet = lol. (You sir! I challenge you....to a priouette! EN GARDE~!)
Some bits were (literally) really gay.
GREAT music. Gareth Farr music. Some awesome percussive work, good study for Orchestration.
They had some really cool wedding suits. The samoan one was really kool.
---
And then I did my first night and highway driving back home.
---
Mentatz! Last time I had their noodles, this time I had their miso katsu-don - very, very tasty.
---
My mum's not here.
---
Academy : I cannot play all the solos and stuff. And I know what sonny means by like "hey Sonny can you play this piece can you cope" but lol I know it's true for what he said in my case. Handel (shift) position
hay hay

Firstly, hello, random KristenW person who left a comment. I know, I know, on google this blog is the first thing that pops up if you type blakomen and sudoku in the same sentence...but...
o_O I am just more puzzled than a 20 x 20 sudoku.
Samurai sudoku (http://www.samurai-sudoku.com/) looks kool though.
And also, http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:PhxUFN42a_QJ:sproutsearch.com/topics/internet+sudoku+blakomen&hl=en&gl=nz&ct=clnk&cd=2&client=firefox-a
WHAT.
EARLY tomorrow.
I just constructed a 2 bar rap beat for William .It features Reason presets (yay), castanets and a triangle.
