2 Periods in the Office


Since Krishna never posts, I have decided that it time to do a post on him.

Well, today we came across THIS picture again, and I just had to take a picture of it and make a post about it. I'm not going to say any more, because it is pretty self explanatory :D



No, he didn't believe it. And for a guy who is always making jokes about people who do biology, and the fact that it itself is a joke, I will directly quote, that you 'do like biology a lot' I heard that you were disappointed in your ranking, (and so were your parents) SO I hope this motivates you to study :D

Speaking of which,

REPORTS!

Waiting ... outside etaghtaB's office. Watching people go in one by one, with anxious smiles across their faces, only to come out with tears running down their faces (okay, not really. I don't really think anyone cried) clutching a tacky and cheaply made booklet aka. our report (Why the hell did they make everything in booklet form this year?! First the school photos, and now THIS!) I waited and waited, and then Sid came out and it was MY TURNNNNN!

I walked in, and I tried to make a really nice first impression so that she wouldn't bee too hard on me, and I was like 'Hello Dr. etaghtaB's' MASSIVE SMILE. But no. I don't think it was a very good first impression, because I didn't get anything back, but a glare. A cold hard glare. 'Are you Tonia?' I reply with a yes and sit down on the chair. Then she starts looking through my report with an extremely concerned look on her face, 'You see, many people get through Year 10 very easily, but senior school is different, you actually have to study'. WTF and from then on, I just stopped listening, and watched her face instead. From my close observation, she actually reminds me a LOT of Lord Voldemort. If she took off her wig (or shaved her hair ... I'm not sure if its real though ... and then like cut off her nose, then she would highly resemble him.

Anyway, I am going to study now to prevent disappointment from my report next semester, so I will end with another funny picture I found in the office :D

Hawhaw, can you recognise any of the people?

" I see signs now all the time... "
Wednesday, May 26, 2010

Recently, I have developed the habit of going straight to the horoscopes section in Sunday Life Magazine in the SMH every Sunday. For some reason, all other horoscopes seem like a load of crap, but for me, just this one seems to be an accurate representation of the week ahead. Now that I think of it, how can some guy who doesn't know me, make an accurate depiction of all Gemini born people within Sydney, based on the position of extraterrestrial objects?

Does anybody else believe in horoscopes? star signs? etc?

GUYS

I don't think I've done a post about the opposite gender yet. So here goes :)

It's interesting how different things appeal to different people, and how some aspects of a person are attractive to others, while a complete turn-off for others. I guess that kinda shows that since everyone think differently, and has conflicting views on things, its not really possible for everyone in the whole world to like you, so don't get too cut down when you find out that someone doesn't like you, because its pretty inevitable. Anyway, that is beside the point. GUYS.

I've always wanted to define hot guy and cute guys. What makes a guy hot and what makes a guy cute? I don't think that there really is a definition, and that its more of a first impression kind of thing. I guess for me :

HOT : I imagine those models in those really dodgy advertisements at the back of magazines that advertise like dating sites and stuff, where the guys are like built and the picture's taken in low light, and they have like olive oil all over them. And they're like cocky and they're good at sport, and they're bad-asses

CUTE : I've always thought of cute as the 'boy-next-door' kinda guy. They're nice, and they do wise things, and appearance-wise they're kinda dorky.

I'm not sure ... what do you guys think?

I don't even know why built guys are appealing. I don't particularly find it attractive when a guy is like completely ripped and stuff. Its dangerous as well. I mean, he could be hugging you, and without realising his own strength, stop your circulation.

But yeah, Oh! I also want to clarify, that for some reason the guys in the grade seem to think that the chicks really like deep and thoughtful guys who like to talk about philosophical stuff. Well, that is not true. Sometimes when they do that it just makes them even more fake, and kinda try hardy. I think that if a guy wants to get a girl, they should just keep it real. And by that, I don't mean pretend to keep it real, but ACTUALLY being themselves, and not worried about how other people think of them. Oh! And they have to be really nice as well.

I don't know though. I everyone likes different things. But yeah, if you like someone, you should ask them out/tell them you like them. Because you don't really have anything to lose. It may be a bit awkward at first, and slightly (or very) embarassing, but seriously. You never know if they like you back or not if you don't ask them. And like, if you get rejected, no one going to laugh at you. I mean, rejection happens to everyone. You'll get over it after a while. Time heals all wounds, and plus, you're probably not going to see most of the grade after 1.5 years. So don't be embarassed and start asking people out! (SEMI FORMAL IS COMING UP, SO GO GET SOME DATES)

Martin, this post is for you. Long and philosophical
Tuesday, May 25, 2010

The universe is infinitely complex, no finite logical system can cover all the problems that may arise, and so to solve new problems new ideas are necessary. The more people know about reality and the more ideas are generated concerning it, the more likely the problems facing humanity can be solved. Though the actual proof would be a bit more complicated, covering a few details, it is easy to see that such an argument would form a rational basis for ideas such as freedom of speech, outlawing government propaganda, non-rote or standardization based education, and in general that despotism is not an efficient way to continue humanity as by definition it is not adaptive. Though there is an addictive quality to basing arguments on fiery passion, rageful disgust, a strong sense of righteousness, or any other strong emotion that is fundamentally vague and so is the basis of vague ideas, a reasonable approach deriving what we should do from what is an effective way to continue humanity and search for truth, though has less flare, is capable of resolving details and forming the basis of actual consensus among those who think that humanity is worth continuing. Whether such a side would overcome the humanity is not worth continuing side (something else is worth while, such as personal comfort, power, apathy etc.), is yet to be determined.


Long enough? Thoughtful enough?

RE :

That post was not thoughtful at all Krishna. Sif you wrote that. It doesn't even make any sense. It was not a thoughtful observation. It didn't even make sense. But hands down to the fact that you just wrote the longest post that you have ever written (Y) -tonia

Tank
Sunday, May 23, 2010

WOW I HAVEN'T POSTED IN A LONG TIME!

Well this has been a good week :D Probably because I didn't have Legal Studies AT ALL! But nah, I'm just being silly. I don't hate Legal Studies that much. Everyone's complaining about work and assessments right now. Its like a mini - yearly or something. Assessments aren't that bad. People need to stop stressing or else they'll burn out before the HSC.

Atheletics carnival was pretty alright. Congrats to all those tank people who are tanks who tanked their events, and will then go on to tank their events again at zone with the other tanks. How do slang words like tank even come about.

I bet someone was like hey, that guy's really strong ... like a tank. And then everyone started saying it. And then someone put up a definition on urban dictionary... and then eventually it becomes integrated into our everyday language.

God I'm tired.

What kiwis do for fun
Tuesday, May 18, 2010

We all know kiwis are stupid. here is the proof




STUPID BIOLOGY
Monday, May 17, 2010

OMG! What kinda ridiculous BULLSHIT WAS BIO PRAC??? So much for practical exam. It totally wasn't a practical. It was practically (see what I did there?!) theory. I mean, seriously. QUADRAT SAMPLING? That is not even a proper practical! and and and like more than half of it was theory! WHEN KUKSAL CLEARLY STATED THAT THERE WOULD NOT BE THEORY -.-

I bet they made that test to cover everything that they missed out on in the half yearly because they didn't teach it fast enough -.- Seriously though, the science faculty is so lazy and stupid. I hope that they never read this. They never do anything ! There is not a single decent bio teacher. All they do is hand out a gazillion worksheets, and then read them in some weird accent from whatever exotic place that they come from, and then make you do all the worksheets at home for homework :@

Oh well. I don't really mind biology. It's such a bludge. I hate those subjects, where you don't do anything at all, but the teachers still don't let you talk. LIKE LEGAL. Nah, I actually have to work in legal. It's like the only subject that I actually do stuff in. That's why I'm dropping it.

Anyways, back to the topic. I sure hope that I get over 50%. Bloody cell organelles! I totally labelled everything wrong. And thought that the endoplasmic reticulum were the ribosomes and the grana was endoplasmic reticulum. How embarrassing. SIGH

YAY FUN PARTY :)
Saturday, May 15, 2010


Yay! Thanks for the party Jenny :)

I think you relieved a lot of stress from people. It was great fun, just going crazy, dancing and like replacing all the song lyrics with your name haha. Sorry for not playing pin the dart on the donkey. And I think that treasure hunt game was rigged and that Vicky shouldn't have won at all (considering they were all just hidden in the toilet) Jenny, you are great, and everyone loves you! Stop bagging yourself all the time! Alright? :)





If you are REALLY adamant on me taking them down, then tell me asap and i'll get rid of them. Alright? Please don't kill me! These are the more normal looking ones ... (dw, i'm not gna show anyone the lesbian ones ;) )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNY!

today was a pretty mad day. i am quite happy.


there you go. an emotional post from me haha

Nothing to post...
Tuesday, May 11, 2010

Man, I have completely run out of things to post about. Now I know why everyone's blogs die after a while. I can't believe I've actually run out :( I usually have like 46346 thoughts running through my head at once. And now I have nothing ... Well of course I have stuff, but like ... it's not something that I'd write here ;)

Yes. So what has been happening in my life? Nothing. Everyday, I just count down how many periods of legal studies we have left. Today I counted that we have 13 more doubles left (but my maths sucks, so I'm probably wrong). Yes (Y) I CANNOT wait to drop legal and never look at that subject again.

I suck at it so much its not funny. Today, when I was handing in my sheet to Barkas, she put her hand on my shoulder, looks me in the eye, and then,

'Now, we'll work hard on Legal this term won't we' *serious face*
'Yeah'
'You're not dropping it are you?'

(LOL WHAT A STUPID QUESTION!)

'Um, I don't know I might take up an extension or something...'

Stupid Legal. Its so silly. I do wish I were smarter though. I envy all those smart people.

Today I went back to my work experience place (the place where there were those freaky old men I had to have tea with) to buy an egg shaker (Y) THANKS GOD they did not recognise me. Those people are so scary. I saw one of the guys right, and I remember his name was Martin, and he was really dodgy, and after applying for work experience there, I went to the music store to buy a ukulele and he was like :

'You're coming for work experience aren't you?'
'Yeah, I am'
'Cool'
'How'd you know?'
'Can't forget that cute smile ;)'

FUCKING SLEAZEBAG

That's just rude and disgusting. I made sure to stay as far away from him as I could. Gross. Yuck. Thinking about work experience makes me want to die.

And omgggg, for some reason, Biology has been the class where we always end up talking about disturbing things. At the back of the room right, theres like this cabinet, and it has all these dead beetles and flies or some shit. I have no idea what they are, but they're pinned on a board and they're gross. Thats not the worst part. The worst part, is the real-life silkworm diagram. It is basically like, the five stages of a silkworm's like pinned onto the board. I was looking at it like normal and then Tina was like:

'OMFG! THATS SO BIG AND GROSS! BUT I CAN'T STOP LOOKING AT IT'

And then, I was like,

'Yeah! I know right'

Because I actually thought that it was pretty gross. And then, after a while of looking at it, I realised that the whole time, the big silkworm was actually above the one I saw, and as soon as the realisation hit me, I just screamed because it was so large. Its like this big plump fat white worm thats hairy. And I don't know how, but after talking about worms , we started talking about tapeworms. Now THOSE are the most disgusting things ever.

I mean, the whole concept of having this worm living inside you right now is already pretty gross. BUT WAIT, let me describe to you what those things look like. They are basically these massive worms that have no eyes or noses. Its just a long tube with one open end thats like round and it has teeth, and its SO FUCKING GROSS.

I hate worms. I hate them so much, I hate anything that does not have a head, or like eyes and noses. It just creeps me out. I am putting that on my list of phobias later.

DO NOT GOOGLE IT. Not even web search, because stupid google tries to make the job easier for you, but having some of the images even when you are searching in web which SUCKS because sometimes when I'm looking up something that is potentially disgusting, SOMETHING COMES UP IN THE IMAGES WHICH IS DISGUSTING

x_________x

I have done that so many times, especially when I am trying to relive my hypochondriac tendencies by looking up all these diseases and shit. And then some image comes up of some super rash, fungal growth or infestation. It is just DISGUSTING.

Hey look, I wrote stuff :)

So much for running out of things to blog about xD

Bye for now and go do some maths!

CAMERA RANT!
Friday, May 7, 2010

WELL. LONG TIME NO POST, BUT IMPORTANT THINGS FIRST.

CAMERA!
I FINALLY GOT IT!

I was at home, bored and tired. And then my dad was like MATHS TIME and I was still bored and tired. And so I was like, moping and groaning the whole way through. And then my dad was like, 'What's wrong?' and then I was like, 'I'm tired', and he's like, 'I have something to wake you up!' and I was like, 'Is it coffee?', and then he said, 'No, do you really like coffee that much?'

And then I finished the maths question, and then he went upstairs. Then he came back downstairs, and he had like, an SD card in his hand, and I was like wtf, and he was like, 'SURPRISE!' And I was like (Y) (sarcastically of course)

Then he's like put open it! Put it in your computer! And I was kinda thinking wtf, because why would I want to open an SD card, there is nothing on it, and it makes even less sense to put it on my computer. So I didn't. And then he dragged me up to my room and put it on my computer, and on it were random snapshots he took, and he's like,' DO YOU WANNA TRY THE CAMERA?' and then, for like 5 seconds, I was kinda like 'What?' But then I realised, and RAN TO HIS ROOM, AND OPENED IT :D

Pentax K-x which comes with a 18-55mm lens :)

Yay! Win :) But yeah, its a pretty cheap model, but it has good specs in comparison to other models like Nikon and Canon and stuff, which are much more expensive for the same specs. Most other DSLRs with video recording capabilities usually cost over $900.

I actually knew that my dad got the camera, because I saw that the receipt in his bag. I knew that he wasn't going to be able to refund it because he bought it like a month ago, so I was going to be like, 'DAD! I DONT WANT THE CAMERA ANYMORE!' and then he won't be able to do anything, and I will sit there and laugh at him, as he tries to find a way to give me my $700 back :)

But then I was so excited that I forgot to do that .

SPEAKING OF CAMERAS, two weeks ago, my aunt gave me her old film SLR : Nikon FM. YAY! Its so awesome, its like super heavy, and its like got a metal body and everything, and everything is manual, and the aperture and stuff is like controlled in the lens, and it can even like function without batteries. SO COOL!

Its from like the 70s. I'm so bad at handling these things though. Just last week, I had the camera on my bed right, and the strap was on the ground, and then I tripped over the strap, and the camera went smashing to the ground (!!!!) and then, I was like FUCK and I picked up the camera, and I could hear that something was broken, and I took of the lens cover, and the skylights had completely shattered :( Oh well, still works fine :)

And yeah, last week I went ... places ... and I took some pictures with it, and its getting developed at the moment :) So I'll get the photos back tomorrow or Sunday, and then I might post some to see how they went xD




I am so excited. Like, superly happy :) I can't wait to go out and take pictures tomorrow! YAY!
ANYWAY, I think that is enough ranting for now. Time for me to read the 300 page manual :)

Help me

Does anyone know where to watch World T20 online? thankyou :)

Bloody Virus .
Sunday, May 2, 2010

Today I was sitting on my chair on my computer, when suddenly this thing pops up that says 'ANTIVIRUS SOFT' and then it started telling me that my computer had all these viruses and that I HAD to upgrade this 'ANTIVIRUS SOFT' or else ALL my files would be infected! :O But me, being the smart person I am saw that this was dodgy, and def wasn't an anti virus program at all. And then as I was wallowing in my self-pride I clicked the 'close' button.

LITTLE DID I KNOW, THAT JUST AGGRAVATED THE FUCKING VIRUS.

And then before I knew it, it had gone into my computer, and did something so that none of my programs would open! Whenever I tried opening anything, it would trick me, and a thing would pop up, saying that the program couldn't open because it was 'infected' and it only left me with two options : Go to their site , or leave it. I had no idea what to do, because whenever something popped up, I couldn't just leave it right? Because if I did, it would lead me to either the site to purchase the bloody program, or www.porno.com ==

In the end, I just left it there and looked up ways to fix it on my other computer. AND I DID FIX IT :D So I am again wallowing in my self-pride :) But yeah, the site looks like this :

So be careful dudes. Make sure that your anti-virus software is updated to prevent picking up this shit. Why do people even make these things. Sadists :@
