Hamsters and pi...

I've been attempting to teach Jarvis how to use a wheel thingy. He still doesn't understand the concept. I thought his new wheel might be easier to use than his old one, but nopes... it obviously wasn't a problem with the wheel. He's probably the only hamster in the world who doesn't know how to use one. Maybe he's just the thickest hamster in the world. I don't care if he is, he'll always be awesome and cute.

Since pi day I've been trying to memorize pi to lots of digits. So far I can only remember up to about 10 digits, but I'll get better at it. Yes, I have no life.

I spent ages trying to remember what that film with the Jewish boy with the pet mouse in the ghetto was called. After about 2 hours of frantic googling, I finally found out that it was called The Island On Bird Street. It's a really good film. Shame I can't find it online anywhere.

I've been pondering the future a lot recently and I realised yesterday that from Septemberish I'm going to be very lonely. All my friends will be going to uni and I wont be. Really shouldn't have quit college in 2007. Meep.

Gosh, I write boring blogs!

Updateyness!

I haven't written anything in quite a while... In fact, I don't even think I've written anything yet in 2009! I'm going to start writing more... if I remember.

I quit school just over a month ago. I know I have a habit of quitting things and I was trying to kick the habit, but I didn't succeed. It just got so boring! I wish I hadn't quit though. Not doing anything is all good for a couple of weeks but after that it just gets boring. Not being in school is pretty much fucking up my life. I hardly ever see any of my friends and I'm once again back to being completely nocturnal. Meep. My life is back where it was a year ago. I'll find something to occupy my time with eventually... But I want to go back... I really want to go back! I miss the vending machine with all the Red Devil in it.

It's my 18th birthday in 19 days. I'm surprisingly unexcited. I don't want to grow up! There's also that really awkward thing about recieving presents. It's not that I hate getting new stuff, I just don't like the thought that people could have spent the money they spent on me on something they needed and I know I haven't done anything to warrant recieving presents anyway. I guess it's a weird guilt thing.

I really want to go to a different country... even if it's only for a couple of days (and no, I don't mean england!). The last time I left the UK was when I was 14. I went to Ypres and The Somme with school. It was pretty awesome... I think... All I really remember is that there were loads of awesome signs (see picture ^ up there somewhere), I got really cheap candyfloss from a little chocolate shop, the teachers fucked up the vegetarian meals one day so they just bought us a load of chocolate and we went in loads of graveyards. I really need to go somewhere! I'm so tempted to just bugger off to Paris one weekend... I'd hate to go alone though, so I probably wont.

I'll write again later when I have something more interesting to write.

Pointless Boxing Day Ramblings...

Gosh... it's been months! Hoobledoop! =]

It's boxing day today and I have the world's worst ear infection. It fucking kills. I've had it since yesterday (yes, I was unfortunately dying on christmas day!).

It's been so long since I wrote any form of bloggishness that I have absolutely no idea what to write... But meeeeeeeeeep! XD

I have exams after the christmas holidays... I only have two (psychology and applied science) but It's still rather scary!

Anyway... I think I'm going to stop pointlessly typing and write and maybe write a blog when I have something to write about...

bye.

Prpductive Procrastination...

Meep. It's been like 6 days or something since I superglued my eye shut. It's still not open and it looks and feels like someone's punched it because i rubbed it too much. It's getting more and more open though. I have a feeling it'll be pretty much open some time in the next 24 hours. IT'S SO FUCKING ITCHY! >.<

Meep. I have psychology homework. I have no idea what to do, hence the usual procrastination. I have double psychology in like 5 hours... I hope it doesn't have to be in today.

For the last 2 days I've been watching a film called Cronos. I keep falling asleep during it though. I think it's mainly to do with one of my eyes being shut. It takes hoobloads of effort to keep the other eye open. In fact, I think I'll attempt to finish watching it when I've finished writing this. Might as well do something mildly productive as a form of procrastination... Wow... Productive procrastination, how paradoxical!

Wow. I have nothing else to say. Hoobletoodledoo!

beauty, glue and zen buddhism

This blog may or may not be coherent. I had it well structured in my head about half an hour ago, but then I kind of forgot about it and remembered it, so yeah...

A year ago things were slipping to say the least. Currently, nothing's perfect but it's a lot less unperfect than it was this time last year. I'm rather happy with right now. =]

A year ago I was living in Manchester. I miss it a lot and still agree that it's a better place than Wales. I loved it there, but I've realised that I definitely prefer not living with my mum. It's not because I don't like my mum, it's just that we're not compatible in a residential environment.
Manchester was beautiful. The buildings were a lot more interesting than the ones here. I liked all the variation in the structure and architecture there. I found all the graffiti and dark alleys and stuff beautiful (not that there's not any of that stuff here, but it fits in better with Manchester). I've always found beauty in decay, and the beauty in urban decay is no different. Wales is beautiful too, but in a more stereotypical way with the beauty in nature and whatnot and there's still a satisfactory amount of urban decay. Meep. I wanna say something about chav culture here but I can't think what to say... Fuck it, there's beauty everywhere!!

I've been learning all about Zen Buddhism (for sociology homework which now has diet coke spilled all over it) and it seems to make more sense than most religions/philosophies/whatever.

Ooohh... on Sunday, I was fixing a yoyo and got superglue all over my hands. Stupidly, I rubbed my eye and couldn't move my finger from it. I felt like a right retard sitting in A&E with my finger stuck to my eye. Eventually my finger got seperated. Unfortunately, my eye is still glued together. I have a patch on it and people keep making pirate jokes. The pirate jokes were funny at first (like the whole situation was!) but now I'm getting fed up of them. I'm also fed up of only being able to use one eye. I wonder how long it'll take for my eye to open. So far no amount of water, soap, salt, vaseline and other random crap has worked. My eye is so fucking itchy and annoying. It's gone all swollen and ick. Cyanoacrylate is evil! But still, LOL@me :P

In applied sciency biologyness I got 77% in a test about the heart, the cardiac cycle etc. I was rather proud of that, as I don't think I've got over 50% in a test without cheating for years! I also got 9/20 in psychology and that was without any revision, so yay! I keep doing better in things than I expect. =]

Must dash, need to tidy my desk! Hoobletoodledoooo!

coughspluttermeep

I should be in sociology right now. Instead, I'm stuck at home constantly coughing. Ventolin seemed to help for a bit, but I don't want to accidentally overdose on it or anything, so I'm going easy on the Ventolin.

I fucking love the postman! Today I got 2 bits of post... The most boring bank statement ever and Who Killed Amanda Palmer!
Who Killed Amanda Palmer is fucking amazing! =]

As well as having a hoobacious CD, I just had the best jam I've ever had on my toast. It was yummy yummy yummy.

Urgh. I hate having a lack of breathing properlyness >.< I actually WANT to be in school today!

Meeplemop. I guess I can have a day of Amanda Palmer, hoobage and tea...

stufffff

People are cocks I tell thee... COCKKKSSSS!!!! I'm so fucking sick of everybody and I don't even know why. =/ Gosh... Aren't I just a bundle of joy!

Anyway. I'm not going to pretend I'm against material possessions, but I do think they are the root of all evil.

Meh! I really can't be bothered elaborating on anything at the moment but meep.

I'm seriously considering dropping out of school.

Itchy itchy itchy.

Meep.

Hoobletoodledoo
