So no one took any photos of the paintball.

I would post photos of my injuries, but that would just showing off sad.

Sunday, August 29, 2010

I tried on my year 12 jacket the other day. It looked terrible.

Anyway, paintball tomorrow. =)

Suit Up and a Federal Election - Day 17



I came, I saw, I voted. Then I went away and bought a suit. And shoes.

( backdated 22-Aug-2010 )

Please Vote!

The federal election: It's today.

Day 16

On the other side of the table.


The chips were very crunchy, the burger was so-so, but filling.


I would like to blame Tienyi for the lack of further photos. I'm also disappointed I didn't manage to explain the election to Paolo.

I've Made a Decision

This project 365 will from now on be 365 days of photos. That means, that if I miss a day, the project will go on just that little bit longer. Which isn't to say that I won't try.



That is all.

Also I'm a chronic revisionist editor. So that's something I should work on.

I think I should start a tech blog, somewhere outside the Blogger ecosystemgoo.

Dream

This morning I had a dream, or perhaps a day dream, I never can quite tell, but I can remember it abnormally well, so I'm going to write about it. (This is also a good distraction from my fail of a project 365)


In this dream, I was in a house with a bunch of other people, some of which were sometimes (it was a dream) cousins. Oh and HAL was there too, but I think the house had morphed into an orbiting house which I had started referring to as a space station. Actually, now that I think of it, the dream didn't start there, but before that is so foggy.

Anyway, obviously HAL has gone insane off camera and we (who?) were now trying to reason with him. I have no idea what HAL's mission would be on a space station, nor do I remember if he actually threatened us / showed any insane behaviour. Someone has this brilliant idea of assembling another HAL to convince the first that he's wrong, but that idea is ignored. Sad face.

Someone (maybe HAL?) opens a window. I'm shocked at how non-violent "decompression" is. Nobody seems to notice. A strange feeling. Slight panic. Leave the room, which has normal doors, which seem to be effective. Repeat.

At one point Keanu Reeves broke in through a skylight, forcing an evacuation of the room, and many rolled eyes.

Throughout I only noticed the lack of air when I remembered that there was supposed to be no air, which was a little inconsistency that was niggling at the back of my head. No wooshing either.

Near the end, I realised that I should get my phone out to record a video log/goodbye, but then I noticed that I had signal! Yay! but then... who to call? I settled on Dad, and got voicemail. Some (implied) time later I was talking to Dad, with an old nokia in my other hand, trying to convince him of something, occasionally the signal would break up. At this stage we break to a commercial with some older chick explaining how she prefers some type map and that she liked the  elephants performing at the tram stop.


Anyway, that's the best I can remember it,

Peace

Lunch, the most photoworthy of daily events - Day 14

^^ In case you can't tell I was being sarcastic.


Toasted mortadella, with "plastic" "cheese", on white bread.

Cascade, Grill'd, Expendables- Day 12

As often happens on a Friday, I had Grill'd for dinner, then saw a movie.

But first, a complaint. This drink:

Is terrible! it tastes nothing like the stuff you buy from the supermarket and mix yourself. I do like that their carbonated apple juice product is available however.

Now that that's out of the way, I had a "Front Bar" (IIRC) which is a "Steak Sandwich". It was very delicous (see below), but impossible to eat.. gracefully. Back to a "bar bar" next time me thinks.


The movie was "Centurion"...  Oops, turns out I was a week off. Centurion was last week (see what happens with all this backdating!)


What I actually saw was The Expendables, which, as I predicted 10 minutes in, climaxes... you guessed it, 10 minutes in. (I'm not going to spoil the best moment in the whole movie, even if the trailer almost did)

I really should've written about Knight and Day, Inception, or Toy Story 3 when I saw them. They were all good. I'm not just a complainer. Honest. =D

( backdated 18-Aug-2010 updated fixed corrected the same day )

Nawww.. filler post - Day 11

No, I can't remember what happened 2 days ago. This is why this blog exists. But I am committed to doing better, taking more photos.


Addendum: Really must hack the camera app not to stop music playback. It ruins my spontaneity having to choose.

Sunday - Day 8

Technically starts at 00:00.

This image is less scary like this. Normally sized it might... hurt my feelings.

Small? - Day 7

On this day myself and my father (grammar nazis, attack educate!) visited several car dealers. He was interested in evaluating the viability of "small" cars. He did not like.


I took a photo of some birds from a distance.

Nnnnnerrdfest - Day 6

This is the best possible angle of Paolo.

( backdated with brevity in the interest of getting things done 13-Aug-2010 )

Also today: Centurion, which is not really worth mentioning except to say that human heads are apparently easier to cut off than I had imagined, and that the UK seems to have run out of actors, as I keep recognising them from their other roles.

Panorama Day - Day 5

I'm lazy so have a teaser.

I find it amazing what we don't notice. Spot the flaws.
 This one didn't turn out so well.

There are Birds - Day 4

Went to uni, on a bus.
I'm amusing 'Maddy' is female.

Afterwards I went to a supermarket that had it's own flock of internal birds.
If there were birds here the title would make sense.
Birds are hard to photograph.

Achievement is Not a Zero Sum Day - Day 3

(and coming up with interesting titles is easier than delivering interesting/matching content)

Concrete has started falling from the sky and little fluro workers are running around directing it.

No amount of editing can make this cheery. I tried.

I actually missed all my scheduled doohicky's today. The library was very full too.

Starcraft II is a very useful learning related tool.

Back Into It - Day 2

I went in to uni today. Which was odd, and not only because it was a Monday.

pictured: Joy

After a quick headcount, I had discovered that there were about 25 people in with Thau. At least 1/3rd were wearing earbuds, intently staring at their laptops.

I have not had a single oral conversation longer than two stanzas today.

New August Resolution - Day 1

Today I woke up at 2pm. At 5pm I got a text, sent at 3pm, and I left at 7pm for dinner at 7:30pm.



Nom nom.
