An Intensely Boring Blog in which we establish Australia's iTunes suck

OK so I haven't written anything in a couple days. Which means I am still failing to do BEDA... I had something to write about the other day but I forgot what it was. Hmmm....

So I've been listening to Fury by Muse a lot today. I haven't got the recorded version of it and today I finally looked it up on YouTube to hear what sounded like. Previously I had only a video of them performing it at their Royal Albert Hall gig last year. I wish the recorded version was on iTunes so I could buy it. I know it's on the American iTunes store but I'm pretty sure you can't buy things from the international stores unless you have an account with that particular country. Although I could always try... Nope it doesn't work. *sigh*

I have a lot of uni work I need to do. This blog is intensely boring. I shall let you go and do more interesting things with your life now.

Epic slightly (im)possible adventure planning.

Today is Monday!

What am I blogging about today?

JOHN GREEN IS COMING TO AUSTRALIA! But not to Perth (duh!), Melbourne. I now only have two options:
1) Convince him to travel the extra four hours to Perth
2) Go to Melbourne myself

Well there is actually three options, but the other option is the most likely to actually happen and this blog isn't meant to focus on realistic events. Fairies.
I've already looked and the day he is apparently appearing in Melbourne is the weekend after the last week of semester finishes. Of course we have exams; but there's an pre-exam study break after the end of semester so my theory/plan is that if I leave Perth in the morning spend a day in Melbourne, go to John Green's event, then fly back in the evening hopefully getting flights at convinient times and hopefully I can manage carry on luggage only flights which are the cheapest then is should work out. My uncle lives in Melbourne so if I need help I can always ask him plus I've been there a few times so if the venue is in the City I should be able to find my way around.

If I could actually manage that trip and everything went according to plan then it would be EPIC!! But I don't even know if I have the money to even afford the cheapest flight to Melbourne, or really even the time because after all I still have to study for exams..... But it's fun to think about....

Also today I think I will recommend a youtube channel --> http://youtube.com/meekakitty She's awesome. Check out Tessa + Caffiene = bad, video. Not sure it's the exact name but you'll find it.
"Is that an outlet??!!!" =D

It's Easter everyone. Let's watch a YouTube video with swearing in it!

Happy Easter EVERYONE!!! Even if you don't celebrate it; or if it's not quite Easter for you yet.

So today was Easter and we had a family lunch. It was pretty good, food was nice etc. My family is pretty small so it was not a big thing or anything. I've got quite a few chocolates that I will probably take ages to eat. Anyone want to come over and we can have a chocolate eating session?? =P

I've been invited to a party thing on Tuesday; and this is the theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7yfISlGLNU

Now I'm not a fan of hip-hop/rap and I first heard this song on Prosh day and I was like 'They can't be serious!!' and they weren't - thank goodness. It's pretty funny, but I don't know if I'm meant to dress up to go to the party or not...

Anyway I am quite annoyed that our break is only a week long. I'm used to two week breaks dammit! There's not enough time in a week to have Easter, do my many assignments, general study, catch up with my old friends, have fun with my new friends, talk to my online friends (hey this is making it sound like I have a lot of friends =D), watch tv, go to the movies and hopefully catch up on sleep. There just isn't enough time! I need a time turner like Hermione had. poof. But I suppose it's better than no break at all.. but that isn't much comfort. Although we do have a month break in June/July.

I think that is all I have to say today. <3

P.S Moffia chat tomorrow! Excited! =D

Recounts and Wizard Rock

So I'm a bit confused about how Blogger is dating my posts. I'm sure I wrote my last blog on the 10th (hence the sentence "I missed a blog for the 9th of April") but Blogger tells everyone I posted that blog on the 9th of April. =/ They must be dating them according to some timezone I am CLEARLY not in.... I could probably change this but I don't know how as of yet so I think it'll just stay wrong for the moment.

So today was a non-event really. We went to my aunt's house for our family gathering for easter. At the height of the party there was NINE people. We are SUCH a large family. Then we went home and vacuumed the floors. Then I mopped the floors. Then I went on my computer and typed this. Hehe, I just wrote that last bit with lots of 'then's. Like in Year 1 to Year 5-ish when we had to do a 'Recount' whenever we went on an excursion to anywhere, the next day we would have to write a Recount aka a page (or approximate) about what we did. So literally it would be like "On Tuesday the 5th of April we went to the Museum of Brightly Coloured Spinning Tops. First we saw...... Then we got to...... Then we went.....I learned that...... etc etc"
Everyone hated doing it. By year 2 everyone had already worked out what a fruitless exercise it was. I mean why would our teacher want to read 30 of the EXACT SAME THING?? And not only that but it wasn't as if the our teachers didn't know what had happened - after all THEY WERE THERE! I remember in year 3 we spent a great deal of time discussing these two arguments amongst ourselves about our excursion to the Police Academy. So much time in fact most of us had to finish the goddamn thing for homework. I always tried to avoid the phrase "Then we" or "and then we" or such like because it was terribly uncreative and repetative. But I often failed mainly because Recounts are terrible uncreative and repetative.

So there's a random story for you. I hope you enjoyed it. I tend to be not talking about my day at all in this blog.
Random thing #1: Go watch the Remus Lupins music video for Seven Potters. It is AWESOME! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UmPK3dGPck
Random thing #2: I just remembered how much I like End of Era by Oliver Boyd and the Remembralls. But I don't have a copy of it so I have to go to his myspace everytime to listen. His albums aren't on iTunes. And neither is Nevermind the Furthermore by TRL. Not on the Australia iTunes anyway. =(

Break and ... did someone say MUSE?

So once again I fail. I missed a blog for the 9th of April. That was mainly because I couldn't think of anything to write and I was quite tired yesterday, so I couldn't be bothered rambling on about the fact I had nothing to write about.

I have a week "study break" from uni starting today and ending in a weeks time on Monday. This break is probably going to be pretty busy seeing as it's Easter this weekend so there's all the going church, seeing family stuff that usually happens at these times of the year to do as well as my multitude of assignments and just general study that will actually enable me to past my units. AND I also want to catch up with my friends I haven't seen in AEONS.

I just bought two Muse songs from iTunes (Easily and Crying Shame) that I didn't realise they had on iTunes (iTunes Australia needs a better range. NOW.), and I was just listening to Crying Shame and it has at least one swear word in it which I'm only pointing out because I'm obsessive and out of the 87 Muse songs that I have that is the only one that has proper swearing in it. And because I'm weird like that I've always wondered why Matt Bellamy tends to write songs without swearing in them. I don't even know if that's a valid point to wonder about but I still do. If I ever get the chance I may ask them about it. They are touring soon, and are "special guests" at some of U2's American shows. Not that I care too much about U2, and personally I think Muse will upstage U2 big time but then again I don't know how good U2 are live. Apparently they are very good. But Matt Bellamy > Bono. To quote a YouTube comment about a video of Muse playing Showbiz in their earlier days when Matt had blonde hair and wore a hat.

"Look children, there's God ... in a hat."

That's probably blasphemy, strictly speaking but it's still funny. =) Also it's not a direct quote. In fact I'm pretty sure the person who wrote the original comment had some grammatical errors but the general jist is still the same.
Most Muse fans would refer to Matt as a god. I don't know if I'd particularly label ANYONE as a divine being because really they may be exceptionally talented and all but they're still human. However Bellamy is AWESOME times a million. Wow this blog wasn't meant to be at all about Muse but then again I didn't know what I was going to write when I started so maybe it was...
I was also going to gripe about how I couldn't go see them when they toured in North America and Europe. But I got distracted writing about the hat comment. So here's me griping...

gripe gripe gripe WHY DO I LIVE ON THE WRONG CONTINENT(S) gripe

Thank you.

Yay, We found Marzieh!!

So today I am actually going to post two blogs in a row! *happy dance* Another *happy dance* moment is that today Marzieh twittered for the first time in like, ever, saying she's back! Yay!!
She's been MIA for what seems like ages; I've no idea the real time but it's been too long. =)

OK, so I fail at writing interesting blogs at the moment. I hope they'll get better when I'm on break which starts on Friday. Let's think what I can write about. OH I know, my earrings....

In November I got my ears pierced and a few months ago the time passed for me to take out the training studs out and replace them with nicer, prettier looking earrings, so I went out and bought a pair of gold and red strawberry earrings. When I bought them I thought, oh yeah strawberries, EVERYONE has these kind of earrings, they'll be inconspicuous, but nice looking and ones I can wear everyday comfortably. Inconspicous? Ordinary? Apparently not! For some reason there have been SO MANY PEOPLE who have commented on my earrings. And it's not as if these people know that I've just had them done and they are merely commenting politely on something new; (you know how girls always seem to compliment their girl friends and guys too about their new haircut/colour even if actually in truth it is HIDEOUS! Or maybe I'm just particular about that sort of thing). I think I should have taken a hint from the saleperson who practically gushed every ten seconds on how cute they were when I was buying them. But a lot of people have been going 'oh look strawberries!!' as if it's something new and exciting. I am quite perplexed about it; my impression that everyone had a pair of cute strawberry earrings in their jewelry box was clearly not based on any logical proof. But on the other hand it could actually be part of this massive conspiracy theory to make me think they look cute and some how that leads to me accidently ripping a hole in the time-space continuum and destroying the universe forever.

So yes, strawberry earrings - an unlikely conversation starter. If you like short conversations. And don't get me started on elephant shaped paperclips.....

=)

Gobble Gobble Gobble.

OK so I basically fail at Blog Every Day April. Mainly because I haven't blogged every day in April and it's only the 7th day of the month.

Today I had my mid-semester exam for my earth science unit. I think I made half of the short answer part up, but hopefully I didn't do to dismally. Tomorrow I have a calculus test that I'm a bit worried about but that'll be over and done with by 9am so then I'll have the rest of the day free of the plague of worry assessments usually bring on.

So this morning I was reading twitter and came across a tweet by Tom Felton (aka Draco Malfoy in the HP movies):

"TomFeltonLong trips + Prodigy = Getting to point B in record time. (via @Spellvira)my thoughts exactly!omen,breathe and snack my witch up,tunes!xabout 17 hours ago from Tweetie "

Haha, Snack my Witch Up. If you don't know the actual name of the song he is referring to just search Prodigy and you'll probably find it. And you probably can guess anyway....

Today at uni there was a petting zoo on Oak Lawn (aka a grassed area with trees on it), and there was the CUTEST little white kitten. It was so small and so gorgeous. I want another cat. There was also some small sheep, goats (including one that was massive), an alpaca, ferrets, various rabbits, various chickens, pigeons, doves and a few dogs. Oh and there was a turkey. Now that was a sight to behold.

"Come on my army of midget friends" I've decided quoting people is a good way of making my blogs interesting (or is it?? let me know) and this particular one was said my a friend of mine as we were walking out of the Physics lecture theatre and is the most amusing thing I can remember from today. What he was refering was to my other friend and I who are both approximately 5'4" whereas he's a nice 6'6" (I think - something pretty tall, his head almost touches the top of the doorway out of the lecture theatre).

I need to study for my calculus test now Principle of Mathematic Induction HERE I COME!!!
