She's A Rage Quitter

Blob blog blog. I'm grumpy because I can't find my Deathly Hallows earrings. =(
I am also grumpy because I can't play anything without getting disconnected.
I have tea though. I should probably start studying for exams. But my room is too messy. TOO MESSY!
Lol the first word of this blog is blob. That was supposed to be blog. Yeah.
LoL is also a game I play. The aim is to kill the other team's Nexus. What even is a Nexus? Apart from a thing you destroy in LoL and a dungeon in WoW. Google to the rescue!
It is also:
-A bi-monthly magazine (BI-MONTHLY!)
-something to do with wrestling
-a phone
-a popular name for bands and albums of bands
-several different software programs

Apparently the word Nexus is Latin in origin meaning:
–noun, plural nex·us·es, nex·us.
1.
a means of connection; tie; link.
2.
a connected series or group.
3.
the core or center, as of a matter or situation.

I guess 1/3. works for LoL, sort of. My goodness it's a bit cold. Doctor Who Series 6 is playing on tv at the moment, it is awesome. The last episode was really good (by the last episode I mean the Doctor's Wife).
"No, bunk beds are cool! A bed! With a ladder! You can't beat that,"
The Doctor has a point.

I'm so bored, I don't really want to write about designing a pressure vessel.

I love lamp


So good to see you once again, I thought that you were hiding. And you thought that I had run away, chasing the tail of dogma.


If you happen to read the same circle of blogs I do, you would be aware that many of them are embarking on Blog Every Day in April. I am not embarking on this particular quest as I simply don't think I have the motivation or the creativity to write something everyday for 30 days. If you don't happen to read the same blogs as I do than you are now aware of something I am not doing, and if this is the first blog you have ever read I first would like to apologize and secondly, like to reassure you that it's not all that bad, we have biscuits! of hopefully the tasty variety. And hopefully if they are those assorted biscuits there will be some chocolate ones left although there's usually only about five. I mean, who's idea was that, to put only five of the best biscuits in the packet. I bet they did that just so they could laugh at the poor people who have to eat the boring unflavoured ones. And watch them dip them into their tea just to make them taste OK, and then laugh at them when most of the biscuit falls into the tea (and you're just like now what, do I get a spoon?).

I'm supposed to be studying maths, for a test I have on Thursday. Instead I am reading the April Fools 4.1.11 WoW patch notes.

Rouges may now cast Stealth while Stealthed, entering the state of Double Stealth, which is not only stealthier than Stealth, but also causes the word stealth to cease to make sense to your brain. Stealth.

So stealthy.

We have to design a lamp shade for one of my classes. Then we have to draw it in Solidworks. I am not keen. This is an example of what our lamp shades wont look like. It's full of awesome, it's actually a skirt/petticoat from American Apparel. Although if I had this I'd probably wear it not use it as a lamp shade. So pretty (but overpriced in the Australian store - grumpy face). Our lamp shades will look very industrial and bulky as we have to make them out of sheet metal. The picture is from here.

Sorry, I was playing WoW

I haven't written a blog post in a month. Is that a long time? Is that not long enough? I just don't know anymore.

On Sunday it was the Big Day Out and the headlining act this year happened to be one of my favourite bands, Tool. I took pictures this year with my battered pink camera. It was awesome, I was on the barrier right at the front, couldn't get much more at the front than what I was. But I got a bit crushed by the thousands of people behind me. Just a bit.

So yeah, here's a few pictures of BDO Perth. The first one is a picture of Jim Jones Revue who played reasonably early on the Green Stage. They're a wicked band that play good old rock 'n' roll and were really awesome to see live. The second one is Maynard from Tool casually drinking some wine in between singing.




If you have never heard [of] Tool or Jim Jones Revue, here's a few exciting videos

Don't run into walls, or you will die


Hello blog reader(s)! Welcome to two thousand and eleven!! *dramatic music*

How is this year going for everyone? Good? Good. Not good? Oh. Well I hope it gets better, it has only been ten days so far.
Ten days! 10,000 days! Who are you to wave your finger? You must have been out your head! (See what I did there? No? Oh ok.)

I went camping recently. It was fun despite it raining a fair amount especially since it's meant to be summer. Here's a picture of me having fun while camping:
I don't have to much else to say but if I don't post this post today then my 10,000 days joke/reference wont work. So I shall soldier on, to display my awesome creativeness to the uncaring, judgmental world.

I saw the movie The King's Speech recently, it was a pretty awesome movie, Geoffrey Rush played an Australian speech therapist from Perth, Australia. It is the true story of how an Australian speech therapist helped the reluctant new King of England to overcome his stutter so he could address the country during World War II. You should see it if you get the chance. I have also seen Wild Target, which was a different kind of movie altogether. But it has Bill Nighy in it. Everyone loves Bill Nighy. It also has Emily Blunt and Rupert Grint in it.

Yeah. Well... that went well.

I want to marry Cedric


Cedric Bixler-Zavala. Because then I'd have a wicked last name. It has an X,V and a Z in it. How awesome is that? Bet your name doesn't have an X,V and a Z in it. Yeahhhhh.

A picture of Matthew Bellamy fell off my wall just then. Well guess what picture of Matthew Bellamy? I'm going to see the real Matthew Bellamy live. VERY SOON. In almost a weeks time.

I should talk about something else other than people from bands I like to show I have a diverse range of interests and hobbies and partake in activities of varying nature. Guess what?! I have a job! Well in January I do, until February. Which I suppose isn't a very long time but I still get money for it and money is good in this day and age.

I'd also take a moment to say hello to all those people in Russia who apparently read my blog. According to the stats I have on this blog the 3rd highest amount of views from one country is from Russia. I would put hello in Russian here but I googled it and the word scares me a little.
See what I mean?

Unit results come out very soon and this scares me a little. In a different way to how the Russian language scare me, yet it is a fear I possess all the same. I should probably stop writing. Here's a picture of Cedric. Although I think Omar is cuter. Yet he his last name is Rodriguez-Lopez.
His two Zs don't got nothin' on Cedric's X, V and Z.
Yeah, this is the kind of thing I think about in my spare time. I'm cool.

Cheesy clip shows

I was bored during exams so I copied and pasted what I thought was the least boring sentence(s) from every single blog post since I started earliest to latest. I was really bored. I had a week and a half break between my third and fourth which was my last exam. A WEEK AND A HALF!!!

Bye... wonderful, wired world of the internet

I'm not really sure who I'm saying hello to; after all no one except me and my sister knows this blog exists yet, however I'm sure to link to it somewhere on the world wide web of which I'm a proficient user.

Go buy Harry, A History, right... NOW. Only 12.95 at Kmart. And practically not in stores anywhere else in WA.

Looking back; if I had to liken this situation to a real life one; I would say that it was kind of like being in the same shopping complex as Muse without really knowing if they were there or not; and I was in the frozen food section, while they were on a different floor looking at novelty beach towels.

If you liked/disliked/thought it was stupid/like bananas/read it please comment.

Yesterday I made a little stop motion film using play-doh.

And in order to watch themselves on TV it would mean they'd cease to be fictional characters and become real and therefore can no longer be on TV as fictional characters.

Collectively they are so esteemed that Australia bookshops fail to stock over ten of their books at one time.

So on Prosh day it's not unusual to see guys wearing nappies or tutus waving newspapers in people faces, or girls and guys painted in head to toe in blue or green or any other such colour shaking tins in the name of a good cause.

This blog has not been particularly interesting and I apologize for this sincerely and hope I haven't caused anyone any distress if they had expected a thoroughly riveting blog and instead, read this boring piece of text.

"Come on my army of midget friends"

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.

But I got distracted writing about the hat comment.

They must be dating them according to some timezone I am CLEARLY not in....

(hey this is making it sound like I have a lot of friends =D)

"Is that an outlet??!!!"

I shall let you go and do more interesting things with your life now.

4)OK Computer is an awesome album but has nothing to do with climate change and the possible rise of sea-levels.

Sleep ins are overrated, sleepins are overrated sleepins are overated.... it might come true... one day.

The last half is a blatant lie.

*anyothersortofpartydance*

Aww poor Pilate, gotta feel sorry for the guy - well at least in the rock opera, I'm not sure what he was like in real life.

MATT: No, seriously guys, the microphone is stuck to my forehead...

Seriously Gerarda, why can you not write something sensible and avoid putting something lame/strange/weird/banana down every five seconds?

I have now completed my task of wishing her happy birthday on pretty much all mediums invented and made available to the common man

So instead I am going to talk about monkeys.

I lied about the monkeys.

A rather pompous git who acts way above his station, where the lab mice are the only things aboard the ship that is lower ranking then he.

i JUST WHOOPS CAPS LOCK.

I wonder if there ever will be time where the boys name Alex becomes a rare name simply because everyone will have stopped naming their child Alex due to the abundance of Alexs already in existence.

Stu is my friend.

Isn't that some impressive knowledge? I know what you're thinking... why did she eat all the lettuce?


I just thought of an incredible tangent I could go on about linking the end of the world with the end of the year but I've decided to forgo the telling of that story as it probably would need a tree diagram, a link to a wikipedia article and a piece of very long string to explain.

But I'm just imagining these cartoonish fluffy white clouds holding hands (?), with smiley faces that don't have noses while raining on Rob McKenna.
Have fun being dead. I hear it's like being on holiday with a group of Germans

University has commenced, and between devising ingenius ways to get rice across a crevice using only toothpaste, a comb and some old Neil Diamond CDs I am finding time to write a blog.
A picture of the Little Cat for Marzieh before she goes to dial up internet land.... <3

I really like this picture.

But woo! $50 I forgot I had! Win! I'm tired. Does anyone read this? I like you.

Social experiment: Ask someone you've never met before how they are enjoying their standard fast food. See how they react. Write a blog about it, record a video of your experience, or even be creative and write some poetry or paint a picture.

For one of the labs the required equipment includes a "computer diskette" aka a floppy disk. Old school. I hope they don't expect us to actually have a floppy disk...

In fact I'm probably a word sleuth ninja.

Exams are in a week. A lot of study ahead. Wicked.

You Just Got Cut...

I changed the layout of my blog! Look it's a Brian Molko! Mmmm.

It's a bit darker than before but I can't help the standard colour for curtains on stage is black. I took the picture of Mr Molko at Soundwave 2010. Also I had no idea what colour the font should be, so at the moment I'm just going with what looks the least bad. What are your opinions? I do value them, so feel free to let me know in whatever way feels appropriate, comment on this blog or on Facebook or send me smoke signals or send an owl if you happen to be a wizard or witch.

Exams are in a week. A lot of study ahead. Wicked.
is a musical. that I have seen.

CHOOSING TO BE HERE IN... THIS BODY THIS BODY HOLDING ME BE MY REMINDER THAT I AM NOT ALONE IN

Holidays are soon. I have not decided if I am looking forward to them or not. Enthusiasm evades me.

I need a new laptop, any suggestions?
