Ding!

Well, first week into uni and I have attended every class… and…Cheazles and I have both finally reached lvl 60 in W.o.W. Took us a long time to get there, but we are now in the ‘lootwhoring’ business! hehehe… EPIC MOUNT HERE I COME!

Anywhoz, besides that things have been as usual. I’ve been sleeping late, getting up late and generally being a lazy sod.

Oh.. Cheazles’ younger brother, Gorbz has borrowed Dragonball Z from his friend… I hadn’t watched an episode of that in about 10 years! But it is still very entertaining, but drags on for so long! A single fight can go 10-20 episodes! They fight for a few seconds, then yelp at each other to fill in plotlines… then repeat… and repeat… and repeat… I find, it is quite an involved story for a kids show. The other thing is, I watched it all in chinese way back when I did, so I don’t recognize any of the names in the english version… and after watching 3 dvd’s worth of episodes, I still don’t recognize some of the names.

Well.. that’s about enough pointless drivel for today…

Ruh Roh!!

well… as I expected, the holidays are coming to an end and still I have not met my few goals I had set for myself.

I have NOT:

-Caught up with everyone I had intended to

-Started any sort of exercising in an effort to reduce my expanding waistline

-Gotten back to any sort of MA training

I HAVE:

-Gone to Sydney

So basically, I met one out of four goals.

This does not bode well for the rest of the semester now does it? Since I’m setting myself other goals… such as turning up to class.. and attempting to get at least 3 distinctions etc.

With this 25% success rate, perhaps I should hedge my bets. My hypothesis is that; IF I set myself a larger number of goals, relying upon the fact that I will succeed at 25% of the aforementioned goals, then if I’ve set 20 goals for myself I should indeed succeed in 5 of them!

Logically, I think I’m on to a winner!

Hmmz… now taking this further…if I set myself the goal of eating 3kg of Ice Cream before midsemester… and.. since I don’t think that’s likely to occur.. thus, it will likely be one of the 75% of unsuccessful goals… Hence, I have now further increased the likelihood that I will meet one of the other goals… such as achieving the rank of Yokozuna.. or perhaps those two Uni related ones mentioned earlier.

YEs.. yes… My evil plan is coming into fruition… MUHAHAHAHAHAAHAHahaha

1 Week Left

So… my midyear holidays are about to come to an end.

I have only one week left to enjoy my freedom before the grind begins again towards the end of the year. This semester I yet again have promised myself to work harder and to attend more classes and also to get back into training so that I can regain some fitness. Same old stuff… but I must endeavour to follow through. I think it is also time for me to improve and brush up on my chinese language skills too.

The week just gone by has been a mixed week. Despite me being on the edge of falling ill, there was the sad news of a couple of people close to the family passing away. My condolences go out to the families who have been affected. However these passings did bring my uncle and family down to my neck of the woods which was indeed a welcome visit and as always he has given me a little bump back to training… I guess his enthusiasm is infectious.

Now with this week to come to an end and only one week left of holidays, I should find some way to celebrate and enjoy this last week. No idea what to do though… *Yawn* … I do suspect that it may consist of more sleeping though

Disappointment after disappointment..

Well.. that is what I am for Cheazles.

See, Cheazles wanted to play W.o.W. and well, me being the lazy sod that I am, I’m feeling too lazy to play! *GASP* Sacrilege I hear some of you exclaim! Thus this is my public apology to Cheazles for disappointing her yet again.

Onto other minor affairs now…

World Cup is over… as I’m sure everyone is well aware, the Italians won the cup. I would have liked to see France raise the cup since it was the swan song of the great Zizou… but alas, it was not to be. I must however compliment Zizou on his amazing skills on the field, everything he did was of a high calibre, even his sending off was good. A very well executed headbutt! I guess the other thing that prompted me to support the French was that the Italians seem to dive a bit, but definately not on the level that the Portuguese do! Boy does Cristiano Ronaldo annoy the heck out of me! Obviously there are many players who exaggerate when there is contact made, I’ll admit it, even my favourtie Thierry Henry does that, but Cristiano dives when there is no contact made! It’s just pathetic to see!

Anywhoz.. moving on now…

After receiving recommendations from many to delve into a particular internet show, I took the plunge over the weekend finally caught up on the amazing world of Teh Pwnerer. For the unitiated, Jeremy aka Teh Pwnerer is the star of the highly entertaining show known as pure pwnage (pronounced as pure ownage). I am sure that those who are well acquainted with computers and the like are thinking ‘YEARS BEHIND N00B’! Anywayz, I must say the show is highly entertaining to those who have a basic understanding of l33t speak and computers, and surely must inspire all those who were tormented through their school lives for being nerds/geeks. Anywayz, if you have the time check out a couple of episodes and maybe have a listen to ‘Teh N00b Song’.

and…

Finally just something I saw that I found entertaining from the Ctrl-Alt-Del guys.

Time to go work on developing my Über Micro

Cleaning FTL!

So, today was my half yearly cleanout of my room and various other parts of the house and might I say that cleaning is tiring, boring and makes me sneeze! The only good thing is that now I do have some floor space available to walk on, and I have found a few of my wooden training sticks and swords in need of some oil, thus I need to go find my linseed oil now.

Other than that, today has been completely unproductive… but it has started to rain.. which puts me in the mind to climb into bed and have a nap. Napping is the greatest! If only there was time allocated to napping each day at work.. how good would that be? I know I’d work hard to get everything done prior to nap time and then be able to enjoy my nap without having anything hanging over my head. That would be an awesome work policy… perhaps not so awesome for pilots or train drivers… but still awesome nonetheless.

Anywhoz, perhaps I should go do something constructive for awhile since tonight I shall be enjoying the delights of Hot and Spicy chicken and finding out about where Superman has disappeared to since his last movie!

Return of the…

Hello All,

I’m back!

After a quick visit north of the border, I’m back to the mundane grind. I guess it’s not too bad since I am on holidays still! In anycase, the trip north was great… it was a very relaxing, quiet and laid back few days. Had good food and great company and it is very cool to find others who enjoy lazying about and the occassional midday nap.

Anywayz, I should sleep since I have work tomorrow and tomorrow night will be an interrupted sleep because of the world cup semi final between Germany and Italy.
