Wednesday Film Night


So last night we had a movie night.. I think Wednesday film night may become a tradition. We watched two films the first was a really bad indie film about a cult that lived in the sea, I can't remember the name, then we watched a really cute anime about a cat bus and a giant rabbit/friendly animal, I can't remember the name for this one either ask Fionn though!
We started watching Ponya but Alice only had the Japanese version (no subs) which meant that Fionn had to translate so we gave up on that one.
I forgot to take photos so the picture above will have to do. It's from the website 27bslash6 which is hilarious, my favourite is the party emails.


I'm applying for jobs one is working for CYFS and the other is for the YMCA, I think I will prefer to work the YMCA.

Dice and Tuesday and Fortune


I got this book from the Smith's 3$ book sale, dice night will never be the same.
This coming Tuesday (29th) we will play dice and determine our futures!

Everyone should come along.

Some exploits

On Wednesday we had a movie night, it was fun and I played guitar.

On Saturday (today) I purchased a head scarf, it is excellent and camouflage. I wish my moustache was darker.

p.s. I was denied by teachers college, life is much different now that I have no future.

Glacier Trip

So this past weekend Talia and I went to see the Glaciers and Hokitika!
We stayed at a hostel right next to the Hokitika clock tower, there were only a handful of people staying there. We played Monopoly and Scrabble, I won Monopoly by capitalist wit and Talia won Scrabble by superior skill my biggest word was trifle!
It rained lots on the west coast.

We saw lots of rainbows and mystical country side.

The Glacier was magnificent.

Graduate


Maybe I should wait for my grades back before I post this... I don't care because I had, potentially, my last exam ever today. Have an essay to hand in still but it's pretty much done, I feel so good going out drinking with Nadia tonight in celebration.
I have work early tomorrow but I guess this is a pretty good excuse for bags under my eyes.

You can call me a bachelor now, I'm eligible.

Today was my unlucky day


I always feel horrible the night before an exam, I want to go out and spend time with people but I can't. Even if I did decide to spend the evening with someone I cannot think, for the life of me, who I would wish to torment with my pre-exam terror. I scour the internet for a suitable match but they're never there. Oh well at least the heat-pump will keep me warm overnight.

In other news: The picture I have posted is a brilliant example of top down cognition, although the central letters are vague our brain creates sense via the context. Essentially the phrase "the cat" only exists within your imagination, someone once told me everything is imaginary... I think it was Sufi.

We're destined to become our parents

I wrote a song in lieu of writing my essay (which I now have a weeks extension on).
This song is called Pols... I think you can download it from here

Nice guys finish last


Since Year 12 I have wanted to become a secondary school math teacher, I think it's my calling in life. I have just finished my degree in education and mathematics, so today I had my interview for Teacher's College. I was told that whilst I have all the right prerequisites/credentials I am on the waiting list for acceptance, the reason being that I am too nice. Its like a compliment that sucks.

I hope I get in. I will know by next week.

Etch A Sketch


Fionn drew me on the Etch A Sketch.
I was sitting on the couch with my computer.
He has really good Etch A Sketch skills.

Afternoon Tea



We had an afternoon tea at my house, it was so much fun and everyone brought along something to share. There was lots of yum baking, I really enjoyed Netta's savoury muffins and T'nealle's animal pastries.
Will Roud played guitar for us, his music reminds me of Sunny Day Real Estate, although it doesn't sound the same, I really like it.
Teke & Craig played as well, this was great they played some great covers and Teke is always laughing.
Frankenbear played last, I enjoyed playing even though I made a lot of mistakes. My hand got cramp because I played too many songs.

I have some videos which I may upload later.
I will definitely organise another tea party in the near future.

Dice & Vegetables



So last night was T'neale's last dice night for a few months, She crocheted a trophy cup for the grand champion.
My trophy cabinet just got a whole lot more full.
I also received a potato, I'm going to let it sprout then multiply. I am also growing an onion, she's very beautiful.


Who wants to start a guerilla garden club with me?
