Getting into a really good fanfic, only to find 'uh-oh! no more chapters! ... and oh look, it hasn't been updated since 2004!'.

*head-desk*

I wish I could write like this:

The Naming of Things

That is all.

second day of uni was ok, but Sarah is very... flighty. Is hard to be friends with her when she is always off being friends with other people. Selfish of me y/y?
Was quite surprised that my Creative Writing lecturer was male, as his name is Kari. However this is apparently a man's name somewhere, probably some part of Europe.

On another note, I <3 that Tim Roth and Harvey Keitel are both on TV right now (Lie to Me and American Life on Mars). :D

Was interesting.
And the lecturers are pretty cool, and funny.
I will still probably freak out.
O_O

It's been days since I was on lj last, and as a result my unread frineds list was two pages long. :S
Aaaanyway, about to start uni, so hopefully that will start the fic writing going, but on the other hand I haven't really been inspired by anything on Tv or in movies lately so... we'll see.

Also: new laptop has webcam so...

OH! ALSO: At Orientation Week I got a photo with Batman! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

EDIT: GAH forgot lj cut. Memory is baaaaad.

Going to University this year :D

I'm doing a Bachelor of Creative Industries, which should be fun - it's a very flexible course, so I'm doing Creative Writing with some Music and a little bit of Literature. Woot. :P

BUT I've been looking at the subjects and stuff for the Bachelor of Arts at UQ, and I think I wanna do that too - maybe after I get my BCI. Maybe I should take a year off after I get it and then do the BA. IDK.
It's got stuff like Classical Languages (Ancient Greek and Latin) and Linguistics and English Literature and Ancient History and OMG so much stuff. O_o
(Though I think I'm gonna leave Ancient History as something to learn about on my own - HATE ALL THE STUFF ABOUT 'SOURCES'!)

So yeah OMG TWO UNI COURSES!!!

Got a laptop!!!
It's so pretty!!!
And little!!!
And blue!!!

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Reasons why yesterday was good:

- Walked past work with the Bat-tatt in full view. Not sure if anyone saw it but I can hope. :P

- Got a taxi from Chermside to Boston's house, and the driver was awesome. He was this young guy, and he asked us what radio station we wanted, and when we said 'whatever you feel like' he said "Are you sure about that?" and proceeded to turn to a heavy metal station (which was fine). Then Boston asked him what his wierdest fare was, and he said "There's two - the first one was a guy who started taking his clothes off in the front seat - he was some gay guy, a friend of mine knows him and said I'd like it - and the other one was a trannie who tried to feel me up".
Me: OMG That's priceless.
Cabbie: For you maybe.

- Boston's new couches are very nice and comfy, and also his two cats are pretty. (Although I make fun of the funny-looking dog :P)

- When he went to make pancakes, it was with this statement: "No one can mess up pancakes"
Me: "Bollocks, my brother made mutant pancakes once"
I think I jinxed it, cos he then left them alone too long and the bottoms stuck to the pan so when he went to flip them they just came apart. They were mutants. And it was funny. :D

- Watched a vid on the internet of a guy playing "While my guitar gently weeps" on a ukulele. It was like Woah!

Finally I got around to recording this!
On my mp3 player no less.

Fic: Oi, by the wonderful  megmatthews20 
When I say I'm gonna do something, I do it... after a ton of procrastinating. :P
Not reallyWarnings:
1. Dubious sound quality, due to the nature of the recording equipment.
2. Leprechaun sounds somewhat like a pirate.
3. No matter how many times I tried, I just couldn't help saying "Pertrelli" instead of "Petrelli". *headdesk*
4. Various characters slip into Australian accents here and there.

*please work*

Keep messing up fic.
Reading aloud is evil.
I shall manage it eventually!

Procrastinating: it's what I do.

Said I was gonna get my driver's licence this year.
Nup.
Said I was gonna get a laptop.
Nup.
Am still intending to read fic for megmatthews20 .
I am slow.
And you'd think with all the free time I've got that I would do productive things.
Fic written: 1 drabble. *headdesk*

Hot weather is hot. :(
*melts*

Because:
My manager = serious bitch. I was on the verge of just quitting on the spot (my thoughts: "Fuck you bitch, I hope you die slowly and painfully in a horrific accident". Apparently I can be quite vengeful. :S).
Enrolling at uni = problematic.
Flaky tattoo (I went back and the lady went over it (free)) = ITCHY. WAA. :(

SUCKFUL.

EFTPOS machines at work are extremely evil.
They are shitty and don't work half the time.
Sometimes they spontaneously turn themselves off.

Yesterday was especially evil:

One person - 
Machine: First try - declined
  Second try - turns off
  Third try - declined
Different machine: ok

Second person -
Machine: First try - declined
Me: Stupid machines.
Machine: Second try - ok

Third person -
Machine: First try - declined
Me: *headdesk*
Machine: Second try - ok

A few more people -
Machine: Fine

Another person -
Machine: First try - declined
Me: *sob*

So yes - much hate for them.

Could have sworn there was something I wanted to say first, but I forgot it. Sometimes I think I must have premature Alzheimer's.
Anyway, woke up at ten past eight this morning going 'what? why am I awake?' to discover my brother slept in and hadn't yet left for school. Turns out he got a text message at 3:30 in the morning, which is why he was tired, poor thing. Was funny though, cos he was so out of it he kept forgetting things. :P

Looked up Adam Baldwin (AKA Jayne in Firefly) just to see what else he's been in, and was surprised multiple times.
1. He's like 46. Thought he was at least a little bit younger than that.
2. Has done the voices of Superman and Green Lantern. Woo DC. :D
3. Was in the X-Files (briefly), Jackie Chan Adventures (voice), and a bunch of other good shows.
4. Played Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde in a TV movie. OMG that is so extremely cool. XD
5. Played Mike in a TV-movie-version of The Poseidon Adventure, of which I've seen both the original and new movies (just not the TV one, evidently). Major fangirling here: "OMG he played the Ernest Borgnine character (original) AKA The Guy Who Was Hot And Blonde in the new one?!". Yes, I like Mike, even if he is an ass.
6. Was in The Patriot - omg wigs and frilly shirts. :P

But my main one was "OMG Independence Day?!?!" because I love that movie, and have seen it multiple times, and yet I had no idea who he was. So I looked up the character and went "Oh yeah, THAT guy". Must watch that movie again.

Also? Must get Jayne icon. :P [/fangirling]

Had to get up at 6 for work. Yuck.
But I was out at outpost (which is now a bunch of Christmas stuff) so no Lisa (yay).
Was not boring for once as I had to open up boxes and price the little boxes of cards inside and put them up - until there was no more room in which case it was price them and put them back in the box.
Very productive. Woo.
For some reason I like doing that kind of thing, just pickinging stuff up and putting a sticker on it, put it dwon, repeat - also it meant I got to use a Stanley Knife which is always fun. :P
AND the sticker gun which is cool too.
Despite the fact that I'm now seeing a nice boy I still looked out for Dane when I went past the Coffee Club, and he was there and I was like "Aaaww so prettyyy".

The Downside of Today:
- When I'm out in random parts of the outpost cleaning or whatever people try to hand me the stuff they want to buy. It's like "What am I going to do with that, seriously? Do I look like a walking till to you?". Stupid people.

On the upside, going out with Boston tonight and I finally get to wear my awesome boots. :D

Started last night.

( They're probably not even spoilers anymore )

Finally, here it is: 
A picture of my way awesome tattoo.
The lady who did it did a really good job too, so it's gonna turn out great. :)



Well, the photo makes it look a little wonky, but it looks great in person. :D

I am now inked. O.O

It'll be a while before I can post a photo though, as I have to let it heal.

I haz a tattoo!

Three hours till I get my tattoo. O.O


Also, yesterday I got to talk to Dane again. He's so cute. ^_^
