Is YOUR brain working today?

Oh boi, coming back from morning classes has to be the worst. Hallucinations all over the place. I had to go and have a nap in the afternoon just so I could retain sanity for Girl Tv. Discovered this new children's show, Backyard Science. Amazing show, it's meant for primary school kids but even a science savvy mofo like me is still learning these cool new things.

Has anyone ever met someone whose smile just brightens up their day? There is a girl in my reporting tute who has this lovely smile who just makes me feel great even when I'm having a shite day. It's wonderful!

I got to watch my friends in broadcast journalism do their trial interviews in our studios and it was so tough. I don't know whether to take print or broadcast journalism next year. I guess we'll see how the end of this unit goes.

I like overcast humid windy weather!! It's like the world is coming apart! Lovely time to be outdoors. The outlook for the weather says it's going to be fine and sunny this weekend so hurrah!

Funniest dialogue occurred today. I have a friend that recently got a job in child care. He's 20 so he's a weird candidate. As a result of his job he must always be on his best behaviour. Hahaha a side effect of this is that when he's not working he's started swearing like a sailor or someone with tourettes syndrome. He says it's a good way of exorcising his swear demons before he goes into ear shot of the children. Today I said "remember to keep the profanity in check" and his swift reply was
"Fuck you" hahaha hilarious methinks!

I agree with the other, his take on Farenheit 9/11 was superb! I would have liked it more if I didn't come out of it feeling so pissed off. I'm hoping to go see The Corporation some time soon.
I heard today that Monday is a public holiday so I get a 4 day weekend thanks to having the luck to have Fridays off!

I dislike Avril Lavigne. I like some of her songs. I hate the "woman". She only sells records because try hard SCEGS are finally realising that all the time spent at the skate parks with their like minded bois has resulted in suppressed homosexual (although there's nothing wrong with that) feelings being able to be applied to Miss Lavigne. Let's face it, she looks like a guy (with long hair), acts like a guy, dresses like a guy. Basically something that is a guy in the guise of a girl so it's "alright" to think she's "hot"!

I've decided no more guitar till Fri so I can get my last assignment pretty much done before the weekend. Today discovered that I have garage rock band tone on my guitar so I'm happy! I can play for The Strokes or The Von Bondies, I feel so happy! Yee-haw!

Hok that's enough for tonight. Have a nice day folks!

What?? The land of the free???

Well, whoever told you that is you ememy. Fighting for freedom, blah thats all bullshit. Just finished whatching fahrenheit 9/11... Not that any of it suprised me, but still the reminder of the dumbasses of the world was one that infuriated me. to hell with these bastards. Lets make money of the poor why don't we?? I think I'll stop there on that topic, who knows whos reading this. But no matter who the hell you are,you'll agree that its sad that people are dying for the decisions of another. One thing though (this goes out to the Americans, don't vote if you have no goddamn clue, and if you want to figure out why and who.).

When did life become all about money. Have we lost all morality?? People live life these days with he sole intention to make money and it just makes me sick. The focus of the world seems to be going in the wrong direction, we will soon become the disese that distroys ourselves. I hope we can retrace our steps soon ang fix the mistakes we have made. Time for a second coming of christ?? I personally don't believe in a relegion, but the thought of a saviour sounds good.

Time to change the mood, so I'm off to watch Road trip...

Stupid weird weather!

One of the weird things about where I live is that it is renowned for being able to go through every season in a single day. It seems that we may have some rain due in the next few days, which is alright as long as it clears up before Friday!!!

I was astounded with the other's post about his exam blackout! Usually when I blackout in an exam all that's running through my head is "shit shit shit shit shit, you stuffed up, shit shit shit shit, shoulda paid more attention in class, shit shit, did we even cover this, shit shit shit".

So what is jack-ass in french? I've figured the best translation has to be Jacque Derriere! Hehehe hilarious methinks!

M-Biatch has become the self-proclaimed queen of Daytona. The last and only time we played, I was in a busted machine where 4th gear wouldn't engage and I couldn't get to top speed, yet I was able to hold her off up until the last turn!!! As a result, I have issued a re-match for this Saturday where I shall invoke my supreme driving skills (although virtually). When I'm in a car that works, I don't lose!!

I'm watching some ballet thing on tv, it's nuts! How the hell can anyone do stuff like that? So painful, such skill required!

So the plans for Saturday have been put in motion and all looks good. Les Femme Anomaly wants me to play something on guitar for her, which I am freaking out about! What makes it funny is that the song I've been attempting to write for the other is about Les Femme Anomaly! Hahaha, hopefully I can play it without choking. No singing required at least. Nice day people.

Damn early start with journalism today, damn it, damn it to hell!!

"So you've read Karl Marx and you've taught yourself a dance?"

I've noticed a growing trend in rock music lately. A lot of guys tend to wear makeup. This does not bother me (after all I do plan to paint my left fingernails pink as well as putting diamantes on them spelling GTV). Oh yes, I did manage to catch Girl Tv this morning and it was a lovely episode, even though I had seen it before.

But how futile is that male practice of wearing makeup? If you're going to wear it, at least KNOW something about it! It's meant to be used to accentuate certain features or cover up blemishes. It's NOT just meant to be worn just to shock people with how crap your application job is!

Have you all heard the song "Look Good In Leather" by Cody Chestnutt? There's a girl in my Comm class who looks good in leather interestingly enough! Not many people can pull it off, but she does it while still maintaining integrity and class and looking oh so stylish. This brings me to another topic. With the warmer weather, the fashion statements are starting to come out of the woodwork. I am not just talking about being fashionable and trendy as much as a young adult can be, but it's like being in freakin' Milan or something like that! Where the hell are these people getting money for these clothes from (let alone the clothes)?! It's insanity to the supreme. We don't live in Orange County people!!

I decided to get the amp out today and just leave it under my work desk so I can play whenever with some headphones on. I can't get a clean sound running through it! The only thing that sounds decent is crap loads of distortion which changes everything. It covers up the mistakes in your playing which is lovely, but you can't play non-power chords on them besides A minor as the rest just lose their tone. Solos sound so good! I should probably learn some long stuff in its entirety, not just a few notes here and there and some dodgy improvisation.

Well I've been playing guitar pretty much all day, which has led to some procrastination on the study front but today's quota has been fulfilled so I'm happy. I should be able to finish my tute q's tomorrow.

I'm watching The Last Days Of Disco right now. I've noticed that the only difference between disco and lounging (my fave group chill out activity) is the music and the dancing space is much smaller! How scary is that? It's a very talky movie, I like it. Full of inane but BRILLIANT chatter, much like a conversation with me. It tries to be too Tarentino but without his weird charm. Alas, it still has Kate Beckinsale who is an absolute goddess!

F1 is on in the early arvo today so I should head to bed. Nice day folks!

Within The 30 Seconds Of A Blackout...

Tick tock, the mind is racing. Body static, as if it were bolted to the chair. Makes no difference the mind is miles away. Has it left? Left me here just an empty shell waiting to be tossed into the blazing heat. Will I be reshaped into your toilet seat? What will happen to me. Useless fantasies of what we want our bodies to be. A little thiner here and a maybe just a little fairer. Are we nothing more than skin and bones?? Take a machete and slit your throat if thats what you make of it. We are nothing without our minds. Empty vessels without the air. Vacuum, complete notingness. So as it ran away, I stood there, stupified, completely dumbfounded, watching it leave. No control, no movement except for a tear running down the side of my face. A tear of dispair, the story of our lives. Are we even the same oragnism?? Or did the white lab coat psychos make a mistake. The mind is a parasite, more like a virus, controlling our bodies. Thaughts spent without any real change. Completely mind fucked. Senarios thaught up within the 6x6 inch blob, are ones that tell a story crazier than the most absurd movies. Lunatic. And in this same mind we determine what real and whats not?? Preposterous. As I think up all this in a black out during an exam, I realise that I wont be able to do anything without this mind of mine. So I will my head back in my mind as the thaughts start flowing back in, back in control. Am I the mind or the body?? Am I in control...

I wanna be sedated!!!

I don't think I have anything of real merit for today. Then again when have I ever had anything of merit to say? I really enjoyed the other's post, it's an excellent snapshot of life in a third world country. It's like no other place on Earth; beggars, people being shot, riots, all taking place to the scenic backdrop of pollution and gigantic mansions that put most affluent western suburbs to shame.

I've noticed that KC Collections and Timberline is closing down. Is Canberra suffering from a lack of pure wood based furniture? Then again, if one heads to Fyshwick one would realise that our market is over-saturated and that's probably why they're all closing!

Damn the tennis, damn it to hell! Because of the freakin' Davis Cup (which nobody cares about mind you), Girl Tv was rescheduled from its normal time slot to 11am on Saturday morning. How the hell am I supposed to wake up in time for that?! I'll try my damn best though, even if I have to resort to taping it again.

I've just realised that since UC and ANU are both back after their break, all high schools and colleges are on holidays! It's a blessing and a curse at the same time. While the young people are all out on the streets causing a ruckus, I shall be at university studying away. The bad part: there going to be young people around town at all hours of the day! I can't look out my window during the day anymore without seeing a bunch of teenagers loitering!! I honestly think this city needs a curfew, I assure you that crime rates would drop by at least 15%. Damn the younger generation, I shudder just thinking about them. Hehe and to think that I'm separated from them by only 3 years minimum (not to mention a good 50 or so IQ points).

My folks car has broken down today which is terrible! Hopefully it'll be fixed by Monday so I don't have to catch a bus to uni. Ohh how much would that suck? After catching 4 buses pretty much every day in college, you come to hate public transport! The time, the people (especially in this area), you start to see the brilliance in justifiable homicide! Barring that, it should be done by next weekend, so I can have Madame N, M-Biatch and her amigo Les Femme Anomaly (shite, I really hope I remember who I actually mean) over for a movie night.

Watching The Glass House tonight and they said that babies are attracted to beauty in people's faces. Haha, sounds a lot like a bunch of high school jocks to me! Anyhow this is definitely due to evolution! Great looks = easy sex for you = ability to spread genes.
What I'd like to know is whether intelligence COULD possibly be a genetic trait. If that's the case, could humanity ever give rise to a perfect person? I'm talking in terms of strong genetic traits for the survival and evolution of ALL homo sapiens sapiens, not some crazy ass aryan thing!

Ahhh, gotta love Michelle Branch, that's why I'm listening to The Game Of Love, where she was guesting for Santana. Such a beautiful alluring voice, not to mention a good ol' fashioned pretty face!

To finish off, I'd like to link to this blog I found while just seeing what I'd come across from pressing the "next blog" button a few times. I like this guy, his writing style is fantastic and he's giving a point of view that should be shared more often ie the truth!
http://tippingcows.blogspot.com
It's basically a list of political observations which (for once) rise above the individual to society at large. If you like that, you should also try out http://www.salon.com. Quite possibly the greatest news and current affairs site in the world.

Anyhow, I've got all my crap set up for a good weekend full of reading and studying so I should get a good night's rest. Have a nice day people!
