I've had better.
Well, I got to crawl my lazy ass back to uni today. I had to rock up at the ungodly hour of 8:30. I took a good long look at myself and said "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING OUT OF BED AT 8:30!" True story.
I had archaeology, which, for most part was a very boring lecture. I fell asleep for some of it I think, due to the fact I have had about 3 and a half hours sleep in 2 days. Man insomnia sucks.
My inability to sleep did however give me the chance to read "Angels and Demons" by Dan Brown (The prequel to the much talked about "Da Vinci Code") It too is a FUCKING good book and you should all read it (Sitting down to read it all in one sitting like I did is probably ill advised) They are both well written and are really easy to read. Go to it children.
In other news, I got odd looks today as I walked around uni with a syringe wrapper stuck in my zipper. Not THAT zipper, My jacket zipper. Yes, they stared at me like I was some sort of desperate and deranged drug addict (its fun to be alliterative!). Anyway, I had a syringe wrapper from a Forensic Lab session caught in my jacket zipper, I didnt notice it and I got odd odd looks from people. It made for fun and laughter.
Is anyone out there watching Scrubs?
I love Scrubs. Anyone got feedback on my new sections? Or have you all up and died on me.

Danger! You are currently experiencing a car accident!
Howdy campers! What be up?
Just checking in to tell you that due to a whole heap of work done by me, the 100 things and Glossary links are now linked, working and full of info for your timewasting delight.
Got out to the movies to see "I, Robot" last night. Expect plot spoilers and other random postage later.
If you are lucky, I will do something real special for y'all.

This mans luck is not to be believed
Ok, so last night I played poker, and in an uncanny turn of events, finished up about 2 dollars under. (I was about 5 under, but I won the biggest hand of the night with an ace high flush, that brought me back some)
Anyway, I figured I was still up on my gambling fund due to the recent spate of instant scratchie wins.
Then, today, I have a $15 winning scratchie to cash in, which I do. Then after coffee with Julia, we went and bought scratchies, but this time Nick wins again. $50 bucks, Cash money. Based on my figuring, within about the last 2 months, I have won around $200 bucks on scratchie tickets. (And that is including the price of buying OTHER scratchie tickets)
That is also why I hate buying scratchies WITH someone else, because if one wins and the other doesnt, then you feel bad.
So, Thats my story. Sorry Julia.

Just Remember, There are hundreds and thousands of things in this world that you can eat that are not cheese.
I thought I would stick that up there just in case you all forgot.
Hi guys! It's been a while, but I have been too busy with my holidays and crap to actually keep up a posting schedule. Add to that the fact that my parents are both on long service leave for another 12 weeks and have hence been cleaning out the study for preparation for painting. (This computer is on a card table in the middle of a very empty room.) Other than that, life proceeds as normal. Exam results are in, and as predicted, I failed maths, but thats no biggie.
Blogger has had a bit of an update again, which means I can do all sorts of crazy stuff with my text like justifying it and so forth. It really makes you no nevermind, but for me it makes life that much easier.
This semester I pick up Archaeology, which sounds like it could be lots of fun. Given that people already think I am a jackass because of my message board post that reads "You call this Archaeology!" Oh well, such is life.
What have I been doing with my holidays you ask? Not a lot when it boils down. I have done a fair bit of drinking, spent a lot of time going out and the rest catching up with people. Had 'lunch' with Nic on Friday, and caught up with Sonya yesterday. Later today I am having coffee/lunch with Julia. That should fairly well take care of MOST of the people I havent seen for ages.
I pulled a random all nighter by myself a while ago. I stayed up and read "The Da Vinci Code" which, for all intents and purposes, is a fucking good book. I would reccomend you all read it. Given that I read it in about 4-5 hours while crippled by insomnia, I enjoyed it all the same.
Marty's boss blows contractors. Would you like to know more?
This room is empty, and I just got up. Plus I'm hugry.
See you in the funny pages kids!

'There are hundreds and thousands of things you can eat, that are not cheese'
That title is very very good advice
By the way, I thought I had failed bio, but it turns out I probably havent. Hows that for karma?
Other than that I'm just waaaassssssssting time!
The template is giving me a fuck around, so things will be constantly changing until I happen to get it right.
Did anyone else know that there is an ongoing mud fight between Jennifer Garner lovers and Sarah Michelle Gellar fans? The mind boggles, I know. I'm definately a Garner lover, but who cares.
Ramble ramble ramble.
Peace out!

Slowly, Very Slowly
Posting is slow due to my social calendar which has seen me drinking heavily for the past few nights. If you have been paying attention, you would have seen some new "Site navigation" links over to your left. They are slowly filling up with content, give them some time. Currently the FAQ and the ABOUT section are completed, but there are others to come. Any linking problems and template problems are probably due to the slow reconstruction, but feel free to bitch about them on the tag board.

That convict shot my dingo!!!
Yeah yeah, Everyone outside the borders of this great reddy-brown coloured land of ours knows 4 main things about Australia.
1) We have Kangaroos and other weirdo wildlife. Like crocodiles, wallabies and koalas
2) We drink beer have knife fights with each other and above crocodiles.
3) We eat 'shrimp' on the Barbie.
4) The expression "A DINGO ATE MY BABY"
Well, For all those overseas who know the expression but not the story, essentially, there was a mother camping up in the Northern Territory, and her baby dissapeared. She claimed a dingo got it, the childs body was never found, she took the blame. This week; a Melbournian pensioner came forward and said that him and some mates shot the dingo, and found the dead baby, but were too scared to admit it due to the fact that;
1) They were carrying a gun in a national park.
2) One had been to, or was on parole from jail.
Turns out that the kid might be buried in a Melbourne backyard.
Case Closed.
But it brings about some interesting new expressions.
Anyway, as you know I lost my Hard drive this week, and consequently lost much of what I had done of HTML towards a blog redesign. I have decided to stick with what I have for now. BUT; those observant among you will notice small additions, changes and edits throughout the week. I'm making some changes, Stay tuned.
Especially note the new FAQ, IFAQ, About, and Music links to the left. New things coming soon.

Not dead, Just sleeping
I know, I know, I haven't blogged since the 24th. Sue me. If you readers think like most people I know, if I dont appear in webspace for anything longer than 36 hours; people start to do silly things; Like call hospitals thinking I am sick, the police asking how much bail is posted at and the coroner and checking the crawlspace to see if they can find my rotting carcass.
Well, needless to say, I'm not dead, sick, dying or in jail. The theory was posted that I might have gone out and got myself a life. Well, no to that too. Another contraversial theory was that I was studying for my exams, but what kind of stupid person says shit like that? If I didn't go AWOL for year 12 exams, why would I do it for first year uni exams?
The reality of the situation is, I spent the last week inside my computer, crawling around trying to figure out what le fuck was wrong with it. Long story short: Hard drive. Which of course means I lost everything, including some 1500 fully *cough* legal Mp3 files. But you know, Cest la vie. After many hours of frustrating re-installing Windows, Device drivers and all the rest, the bastard is back online.
Exams finished up alright. Bio was a good one. It was a fun exam. Maths, I failed. But who gives a fuck yeah?
Drunkedness in town on Saturday night was CERTAINLY a FUCKING WELCOME departure from reality. And I hope to see more of it happening in future. Everyone is welcome to join my on my roller coaster ride to inebriation, loss of equilibrium and later liver disease.
People often tell me to get my mind out of the gutter, I can't help it, its attached to my body.
I made no Greek friends today, when faced with a large crowd of (probably drunken) Greek revelers in Rundle Mall, I thought it wise to scream out "PORTUGAUL WAS ROBBED" and then gallantly run my ass down the mall screaming "The Greeks are coming"
I have not a lot more to say.
I'm back, I will be around, and I see you when you're sleeping.
Hasta
