The Holidays

Now with the exams over with the daunting task of how to occupy myself for 5 weeks pops up.
My friend and I are going to Melbourne in two days time (still haven't collected the tickets) for the one goal of getting Swine Flu but other than that I've pretty much got an empty slate.
My friend suggested that we go nocturnal for a couple of days/nights so that will most probably be down as well as film for our long overdue No Limits. What we have done is shown below:



However while recently conversing with my friend he decided to scrap that idea due to his camera dying and that would mean basically starting all over again as his new camera isn't compatable. So expect a massive fight scene by the end of the year.
If not well....I blame it on you.
Yes! YOU!
Specifically YOU!

Gah....

But I really don't know what else to write now except that I hope you are well (aww..)
See you on the flip side.

Does the Cock crow because the Sun rises or does the Sun rise because the Cock crows?

Well obviously the answer is the Cock crows because the Sun rises. I am sure there are plenty of places where we can witness the sun rising without a Cock crowing in sight.
Of course, there might be a Cockerel in the middle of the sun that crows and tells the sun to rise from the abyss that is the other side of the world. However it would have to be constantly crowing as the sun is always rising somewhere in the world.

Let us step away fromm incoherent rambling for a short while shall we?
Last night I went to an Eighteenth. T'was good fun.
Laughs were shared. Food was had. Feet were trod on.
Yes, we went dancing.
And not just that doomf doomf dancing but Salsa and Cha Cha and other dances that sound like ingrediants you need to make Nachos.
Although I got off to a shaky start, forgetting when to turn, not knowing how to walk, and don't even get me started on those Hip-Rolls *shudder* by the end of the night I was Cha cha cha'ing to the foreign tunes that sounded a little too similar to Acky Breaky Heart.
However although the invitation did say we were going to "Dance the night away" that sadly was not true.
After an hour and a bit, 23 parched throats later, as well as too many dances to count on one hand the night came to a close. After a quick plug from the Instructors we walked into the darkness with a feeling of content in our hearts.

However this did not last long as lurking in the darkness were Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys.
"Dance!" They snarled with suprising clarity given they would have been dead the better half of a century with German being their first language.
I looked to my fellow dancers. They knew what we had to do. We were prepared, we were ready!
The Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys ripped out their guns and started firing manically at our feet... but we were quicker. We started mambaing and Cha cha cha'ing resulting in a flurry of feet devestating the surrounding walkway. No matter how many bullets they were firing we were dodging them all. Our agility and mobility were far superior to their 50 year old guns.
However a little known fact about Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys is that they always carry enough ammunition on them to flatten a small village. Luckily I was privy to this knowledge but was despondent and disheartened to find my friends quickly tiring to the frantic pace they were focused on keeping.
I consoled myself. I knew what I had to do.
Leaping over a barrel I ran down a dark alleyway and left my friend's dancing with death. It was still a good 7 hours before the Sun would appear to scare off the Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys and we couldn't outdance them for that long. None of us would survive!
"Aha!", I exclaimed as I found my prize, "Exactly what I was looking for."
Jumping over rooftops I made my way back to the carnage. They were still dancing but fatigue was catching up on them, slowing them down. I noticed one or two beginning to slip in their daze narrowingly avoiding their moosey fate.
"Where the H*ll have you been!?" Exclaimed a friend, a rare lingustic feat.
"Don't Worry!" I said Jumping down to them. "Everything will be ok!"
And with that I banished my cock.
It blinked once....twice, obviously peturbed by all this commotion. And with gentle persuasion by yours truely, crowed.
And the crow rang forth. It resonated of the buildings, reverberated in our heads and hang in the air. It was as beautiful sound.

Then in the horizon, a gleam of sunlight beckoned forth. Yes! The sun was rising! The sun was rising to bansish the stereotypically evil Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys and to bring peace and prosperity to all. The golden rays filtered through the night sky bringing light to the situation and hugging us with its warmth. Yes, the Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys were bansished and the night was won.

We then said our goodbyes and headed our seperate ways content in the fact that we had survived the night. And as we grow old we will always hold to the fact that we danced the night away and bested the Zombie Nazi Vampire Cowboys.


Oh well, back to Chem study.

Exams

Well Exams start in two days time which is going to be fun.
The past week I have been 'studying'. This mainly consists me staring at my book for two hours without lifting my pen eventually convincing myself that I need a brake.
5 hours of youtube later I realised another day has been wasted.

In addition to my horrible study habbits I am noticing a correlation to my Game time and proximity to exams.
I went through a stage a month ago where I did not go near computer games ( I know....shocking right?) but as exams close in according to my Steam Id:

http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197994875041

I have played 28.9 hours of Team Fortress Two in the past two weeks.
Assuming that is spread out evenly in the past week I have played 14.45 hours of the addictive drug and minusing an average of 8 hours sleep a day is roughly 13% of my life.
That is a lot!

While we are on the subject of games;
During my diligent student I found this game entitled Scribblenauts and is by the same people who brought us Locke's Quest and Drawn To Life.
Anyway the main premise of this game is you solve puzzles how you want to solve them.
How? Using anything you can think of...

I'll just let that sink in for a moment.

ANYTHING!

You write what you want and it appears!
Now of course it isn't everything but it is damn close, they had 2 months where their team just looked up nouns in dictionaries and encyclopedias to add to the game.

Anyway, it says it is going to be out for Fall in America which of course correlates to Spring down here in Aus.
Of course one must take into account that the rest of the gaming community hates Australia so we will probably have to wait another month or two.
*grumble grumble*

Anyway, youtube it. It looks great, seriously, God Vs The Kraken.

How can it get better?


Ok I will now step away from my unpaid advertising and focus on my state of mind.
It is constantly flipping between the two extremes:
1) You'll be fine
2) You haven't studied you are going to fall

Curse you Logos and Pathos! Make up your mind!
But logically I only really need 30% to pass most of my units that I am currently undertaking. Of course this lulls me into a false sense of security and when I realise I can't ace the practise tests ( as I could do back in school) I get worried but Tallyho and Whatnot, hmmm.... quite old chap.

I'll be fine.




...right?

Well...

I'm meant to be studying for next week's exams but I figured one little blog entry couldn't hurt.

Not if it is as short as this one.
