This is actually really really really really bad

This is worse than my ExtEng poco thing. This is worse than viva voce thing. This is just worse. Bad. Baaaaad.

UND JEDES MAL WIRD'S SCHLIMMER
/random lyric which in context has nothing to do with what i'm ranting about

Oh and I have Pocahontas' Colors of the Wind in my head. In two languages.
And I'm gripped by the feeling that what I'm blogging about is colossally irrelevant/mundane, but whatever.
I've somehow... destroyed all my progress. Major remodelling that... destroyed what I have and... I'm now waiting for some awesomer-than-previous plot to rise, phoenixwise, from the ashes.

Mein Gott, sprich nicht mit mir über 4UUUUUUU

KABOOOOOM

Holy crap school.

FINISHED my 3u english.
FINISHED my belonging essay.

Now let's just leave it at that and not go into all the things I haven't completed. Haha. Haha. Ha... [trails off into deranged nervous laughter]

I just thought it looked funny, and, come to think, kind of like some weird fictional Elvish-esque language...

This is why you should actually look up at the screen once in a while when you're typing up stuff from paper:

" ... enriching his sense of belonging and by providing relationships in which he feels vomgotysblr snf sy homr ehilr dim"

Or, you know, realise that your index fingers aren't in fact on the home keys when they should be.

BUNCH OF TWEETS sort of

This post is going to be disjointed/etc. like a bunch of tweets. Except instead of tweeting these posts, I'll be writing them here, because more people read my blog than my Twitter... at least, more people I know, I think. Not to say that you care about this, but if you don't like reading my egocentric arbitrary rambles/rants/ruminations WHY ARE YOU HERE? [/somekindofweirdintroslashdisclaimer]

* 4U English is a weird subject.

* http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htmhttp://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm <= This is interesting. It has also made me decide that I probably won't switch to Linux any time soon because I have no interest in hacking software x) ...Because I don't do very much with computers. In fact, the uses I put my laptop to are pretty much confined to... Firefox, iTunes, MS Word, Photoshop, Paint Tool SAI, and Notepad. Not to mention windows explorer / photo gallery / etc. for flipping through stuff and scanning things. (Basically: I use my computer for really simple things, Windows already does everything I want it to, and I'm lazy. Put that together = me unlikely to change OSs anytime soon)

* And here's another link, to what is one of my favourite articles online ever: 7 Reasons the 21st Century is Making You Miserable

* I think I'm getting hungry to the point of it being distracting. I had a couple slices of pizza for breakfast, then skipped lunch for reasons I will only bother elaborating on if you ask me. No, no eating disorders. And be prepared for a very boring story if you do ask me.

* OMG DINNER BBL

* I've returned. And I now cbb adding more to this entry.

on multiple foxtrotting or something

I need to stop swearing.

Or at least, I need to cut down on swearing out loud because I might just accidentally let something slip while my parents are within earshot...

lalalalalala typicalteen+music=this

I kind of love finding songs that have lyrics that you really really relate to
As in "hahahah yep just fall right into my psychocardiac convolutions and make yourself at home, you know everyone and everything here"

PSYCHOCARDIAC
When I first used that word (consciously), I made it up, but I think that actually is a real medical term.

Matthew-Reilly-centric post that probably none of my regular readership will be interested in but whatever

Hello I'm in a bad mood
Imagine a stupid rant here

-
Okay I feel like I should actually have something of maybe slightly more substance so... here goes.

Hahah okay there is nothing I feel strongly about now that I can be bothered blogging. Nothing intelligent. Nothing more-than-iotically-interesting.

OH WAIT A MINUTE:
The fourth Scarecrow novel by Matthew Reilly is going to be called Scarecrow and the Army of Thieves.
This is what I saw on Reilly's official site: clickclickclick

The first draft is finished, done, dusted. And I can confidently say that this is easily the fastest Scarecrow book yet. It is also considerably more violent than any of my previous books.

I'm slightly intrigued/amused. Fastest Scarecrow book yet? Hmm... coolies. I wonder how fast. You know, after reading Matthew Reilly, nothing else seems fast-paced anymore... hm.

Also, of slightly more interest is the "considerably more violent" part. I'm kind of interested as to what this will be... seeing as the previous Scarecrow books are pretty darn violent. Area 7 with Lucifer Leary, anyone? Killian's freakshow in the third book... etc.

Sometimes I think to myself that if there was a Matt Reilly movie, I might not want to see it because it's sure to be reeeeally gory. And then I think, who the hell am I kidding, it's a Reilly movie, obviously I'm going to go see it.

Even though there's a part of me that kind of hopes no MReilly movies will ever be made... in case the movies end up being craptastic instead of fantastic adaptations that do no justice at all to the books. <== that's also the reason why part of me doesn't ever want Scott Westerfeld's books adapted into movies.

Or any of the books of my favourite authors, as a matter of fact.

Hahahhahaha yeah.


-
I FREAKING WANT THIS BOOK
There's a list of books I want actually
I should make a wishlist, haha
(:

FÜR EINE UNSAGBAR STÖRENDE PERSON. And be glad that German doesn't flip word genders depending on the person... much... I think...

GUTEN TAG, ALICE.

Wie schade, das dein Name kein wörtliche Übersetzung hat. Oder vielleicht könnte ich dich "Fröschlein" nennen... weil dein WLM-Avatar ein Frosch ist (:

Naja, was soll ich schreiben? Ich habe dein Blog auf Italienisch vor langer Zeit gelesen, aber für irgendeine Grund habe ich das dir nicht erzählt... ACH JA, du hast nichts dagegen, oder?

NUN, ich muss euch warnen... benutzt nicht Google Translate! Stattdessen, benutzt dict.cc! Viel besser, danke (:

Also, ich habe für ein paar Gründe beschlossen, diesen Eintrag zu schreiben...

1. Ich will nicht meinen Hausaufgaben machen. Dieser Eintrag ist Aufschub! Verzögerung! Welches Wort ist besser für "procrastination"? Ich weiß nicht, werde meine Lehrerin fragen, wenn ich zurück zur Schule bin.

2. Ich habe Alices "TOCCA A TE" gelesen und dann habe ich gedacht, "hmm ich könnte eine Antwort schreiben... warum nicht?"

Nun, vielleicht hast du (Alice) erwartet, dass ich AUF ITALIENISCH schreiben würde? NEINNNN. Ich habe alles vergessen! ...Fast alles. Wie schade.


-
ICH  BIN GELANGWEILT
ICH WILL NICHT HAUSAUFGABEN MACHEN
JA, ICH BESCHWERE MICH SEHR VIEL. Zu viel? MIR IST EGALLL~~~
//Gequake

-
Jetzt stehle ich Alices Idee, für etwas zu schreiben. Hmm, ist das korrekt auf Deutsch? "für etwas zu schreiben..."

Heute habe ich am... 8. Uhr aufgestanden... (ACHHHH mein Deutsch verschlechtert!!! Ich habe "aufgestehen" geschrieben. Eigentlich habe ich viele Wörter mit dict.cc gesucht... und jetzt will ich nicht mehr, ein Wörterbuch benutzten. Ich bin zu faul. Fehler, ich komme!)

Ich habe am 8. Uhr aufgestanden. Zum Frühstück habe ich etwas gegessen, das ich nicht auf Deutsch schreiben kann. Englisch: MILO CEREAL LOLOLOLOLOL

Bis zum 2. Uhr oder so hatte ich furchtbar schlechte Laune. Ich habe nichts getan, außer im Internet zu surfen und zufällige Sites zu besuchen... Ich habe keine Hausaufgaben gemacht, keine gezeichnet, sogar keine gute Bücher gelesen... Wie zwecklos/deprimierend.


-
Ich habe mich so oft gefragt: WARUM HABE ICH LEISTUNGSKURS-ZWEI-ENGLISCH ALS EIN FACH? WARUM?

Ich weiß warum:
I. Ich bin gut in Englisch. Offenbar.
II. Ich kann gut schreiben. Ich schreibe gern Geschichte... irgendwie.
III. Meine Fächer am Ende der 11. Klasse waren Englisch, Leistungskurs-Eins-Englisch, Deutsch, Biologie, Moderne Geschichte und Kunst. Ich wollte bestimmt mit Kunst aufhören und Leistungskursdeutsch lernen... dann hatte ich nur 10 "units". Ich wollte nicht nur 10 haben und so habe ich einen(ein?) anderer(anderes??) Fach gewählt. Ein Leistungskurs-Fach, weil ich nicht 12 "units" haben wollte. Die einzigen Wahlen waren Leistungskurs-Zwei-Englisch oder Leistungskursgeschichte.

WARUM HABE ICH LEISTUNGSKURS-ZWEI-ENGLISCH GEWÄHLT UND NICHT STATTDESSEN LEISTUNGSKURSGESCHICHTE ?!

Ich weiß: denn ich lerne nicht gern über Sachen wie "Was ist Geschichte?" und so.

ABER MIT LEISTUNGSKURSGESCHICHTE MUSS ICH NICHT KREATIV SEIN
AAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHH



-
Okay crap it's 9:21 somehow I've WASTED MY EVENING writing this semi-butchered-German blog entry and... MSN... AND NOTHING ELSE FRRRRRR

And yeah I count "evening" as "when I turned on my computer this evening", for some reason.

 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHH

Wow I think this might be the longest blog entry I've written in a while.
What a boring note to end on, so I'll stick something else here... hmm... I don't know...

I want a high-nineties ATAR, as in ridiculously-high-nineties. I'm going about my preparations to achieve that in a REALLY GOOD WAY, aren't I? Frigging hell. The ONLY subject I've been working on for most days is GERMAN and that's because I can use it to procrastinate, i.e. reading comics on Bravo.de and doing quizzes on Maedchen.de ...

I really should be trying my hand at Spiegel.de articles instead, lol.

OHHHH and I've watched the German news a few times, actually, that's kind of nice because the third time I watched it, I felt like I UNDERSTOOD MOAR! YAYYYYY

But still freakishly fast/fluent.

HAHAHAHHA I sound like one of those obnoxious passive/aggressive nerds who are like "OMG I'M SO BAD, I'M FAILING EVERYTHING, I ONLY GOT 78/79 FOR MY EXAM, THAT'S SO BAD BAAAAAW, and you know what I've done nothing at all these holidays except write syllabus notes for every single one of my subjects and finish all my assignments and do some extra reading for this year's topics and print out five years' worth of past papers, which by the way I have completed all of..."

//exaggerated lampshading

Actually you know what, I bet if anyone from my German class read this blog entry they'd want to stake me or something. Because I'm such a German nerd... comparatively. AHAHAHAHHA. I wonder if I'll be able to keep my crown...

Don't you dare link this to people in my German class or I'll stake you (:



-
Lol it'll be so funny if everyone from my class had turned into swots far nerdier than I.


-
Yeah okay long nerdy post is endinggggggggggggggg


NAO


P.S. I think this is one of the most obnoxious things I've ever posted here.

VERDAMMTE ELLIPSE

Fucking hate this mood when I don't feel like doing anything

Hmmmmm might go watch a movie or something.

say something funny

You know when you're in a bad mood you don't feel like doing work
And now I'm like "fuck this I'm in a bad mood, I'm not going to do work, I'm going to do fun/happymaking stuff"
Self-granted license-to-slack-off

pshhhhhhhh

Did write abt 500 words of German yesterday though :D

AAAALSLDFJKLJFFFFFF~~~~

Sudden urge to swear for no really good reason
I'M GOING TO REGRET THIS SOON, THIS WHOLE DOING-NO-WORK THING
FUCK IT'S THE 17TH TODAY
MEANING
31ST CREEPING EVER NEARER
OMG



Come on, deadline, work your magic...

Scheiße////
Accidenti, d'arvit, etc. etc.

FRACKING SUNBURN

Last week I went to the beach and it was awesome except for the fact that I got a relatively (by my standards) horrific sunburn due to a combination of radiant Australian sunshine and my lack of sunscreen application on the day, which had resulted from an unhealthy paranoia that had been stoked up by learning of the sunscreen controversy.

FUCK I HATE IT WHEN SUNBURNS PEEL OFF
It's annoying and disgusting and
/spasm

It's worse than the tingly pain that made me inwardly flinch when my dad grabbed my shoulders as a joke and when my mum tried rousing me by shaking me by the shoulder. It's worse than having to take lukewarm/cool showers for a few days because hot water makes sunburned skin cry. I'd actually rather have a couple more days of tingly pain than this repulsive peeling.

It isn't, however, worse than the skin cancer which could result from getting sunburnt.


-
Yeah in the [approximate] wording of Alice, "screw controversy, i'm using sunscreen next time"

FAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA /froth

FINISHED FIRST-COLUMN DOTPOINTS FOR HSC BIO 9.3
WOOOOOOOOOOOO

I understood/can remember... everything except some dotpoints in the immune response section. The antibody/lymphocyte blah... yeah...

BUT HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAAAAA

-
Oh man I'm going to end up doing everything in the next two weeks. The Belonging essay, the ExtEng related text thing, figuring out a 4U plot and writing a few thousand words...

You know, it's a question I ask myself disturbingly often:
WHY AM I DOING 4UNIT ENGLISH

I know the answer though. But still. /froths at mouth

Change of plan

Had to go out today for a bit, and I feel like being more lenient to myself (read: I am lazy and procrastinatey and all this stuff about antibodies/etc. is too chem-like for my tastes and thus I am being really slow), so I'm altering my self-promise from "finish 9.4 first-column dotpoint notes by 4pm today" to simply "finish 9.4 first-column dotpoint notes today"

YEP

Yelling works. Also, thoughts on languages...

It appears that I only accomplish wonderful feats of nerd* when I actually say that I will do something. Preferably yelling it in capitals somewhere public, such as in this blog. As opposed to saying something like "let's see if I can do this..." <- That didn't work today! Instead, it has to be something like this:

TOMORROW I AM GOING TO FINISH THE REST OF THE FIRST-COLUMN NOTES FOR 9.4
I WILL DO THAT BY 4PM GAHHHHHH


-
Also, I will get up earlier. Might watch the 7AM German news on SBS1... been watching the 1:10PM news on SBS2 since Tuesday. It was/is horrifying in its fluency. Though funny, maybe I'm imagining it but today I seemed to understand more / find it easier to understand HAHAHAH YAY.

On a somewhat related note, I've decided that for foreign languages, this is the [descending] order of difficulty of.. doing stuff. Yeah, that was coherent. But yes:

1. Speaking: You have to nail your pronounciation and grammar while maintaining a normal talking speed (which becomes horrifically speedy when you're not yet fluent), which involves THINKING FAST. On top of that, if you're going to be reeeeally good at speaking, you have to sound natural/native with your diction/etc.

2. Writing: Your grammar/etc. has to be awesome. You can't hide any grammar mistakes in writing.

3. Listening: You don't need to have perfect grammar/etc to understand what people are saying... the difficulty here is understanding the language as it's spoken... right, that was coherent. And I cbb to elaborate...

4. Reading: You don't need to have perfect grammar/etc to understand something that's written - also, when you're reading, you can work at more of your own pace than with listening, and seeing the word written out makes it easier to guess the meaning than if it were spoken... sometimes, at least. E.g. "utile" is Italian for "useful" ... I'm pretty sure it's not impossible to guess the meaning from seeing that written out (link to ''utilise'', anyone?) but if you heard it spoken, it wouldn't be as easy to guess. I think.

...That's how I find it, at least, haha.


-
*by my standards of how effective I usually am in the holidays when I don't have anything urgently due...

Fiery prion-fuelled nerd enthusiasm

HAHAHAHAHHA
Just finished making syllabus notes for 10 first-column dotpoints of HSC Bio 9.4 'The search for better health'
THAT'S HALF THE FIRST COLUMN DONE
HAHAHAHAHAH
And I understood everything I wrote, unlike when I was note-taking for 9.2... a few months ago... wow, that feels like ages ago. The whole pseudo-Year12 thing kind of screws with my time perception, I think.

Yes, I like the disease topic :T

-
Okay yeah who needs horror slasher films when you have this topic? PRIONS, ANYONE? What little I know about prions sounds like the premise for a horror film, seriously. Not a slasher, but you know.

Assuming I have everything right, prions are the smallest pathogens size-wise. They are proteins. Apparently we all have normal prion proteins living in our brains or something, where they're innocuous and non-evil. BUT THEN comes a mutation [in the genes that code for these prions] that causes the normal-prion to flip into a disease-causing form. And these pathogenic prions, despite having no nucleic acid, can reproduce. It's thought that they do this by getting in contact with a normal-prion and turning it into a pathogenic-prion (HORROR MOVIE MUCH AHAHA)... and also, pathogenic prions can't be killed by heat or chemical treatment.

ALSO, DID I MENTION, prion diseases are called 'spongiform', apparently. Because the brains of prion-disease sufferers have holes in them. Just like sponges have holes in them.

...Such nightmare fuel, these little proteinaceous infectious particles.


-
On another note, I'm proud of myself because everything up there was written from memory, except for the part in square brackets. And I checked it against my books and it seeeeeeeems to be correct. Probably. Haha. Don't trust me 100% though just in case I somehow botched something. Though why you'd trust a highschool blogger 100% on info on infectious diseases... //dodgydisclaimer

-
On another note, I'm not proud of myself for not doing any 4U English at all today.

-
Okay that's such a downer note to end this post on. HAHAHA. OH WELL.

Someone threaten me with a Maghook.

TOMORROW
I will not go on Facebook, Tumblr, Cracked, etc. etc. etc.
I will not go on deviantART unless I have something to upload


I WILL MAKE SYLLABUS NOTES FOR AT LEAST 10 BIOLOGY DOTPOINTS
I WILL ... SOMEHOW ... WORK ON 4U ENGLISH ... ... ...


If I do procrastinate, it will either be by drawing/painting
Or it will be on Bravo.de/Maedchen.de/someothergermansite


/flail

I think I'm in this mood where I'm actually not bothered / too tired/dead to think properly.

time for one of those ... pseudo-nerdy posts ...

I FINISHED READING THE SHIPPING NEWS
YEAHHHHHHHHH (Y)

/dancedance


-
I think it's quite a good book. Not one of my favourites, and not one that made me go "OMG WANT TO KEEP READING" while I was reading it, but still a good book.

2011 is upon us.

We are going to rock this year hard OKAY

-
Yeah, happy new year everyone (:
Hope this year is a great one for you, and I wish you the best for everything unless of course you are attempting various things unethical/diabolical in which case --

Anyway, yeah.

To my friends, thanks for being awesome!
To my readership, thanks for reading my procrastination!rambles/etc.

And to all the '11 peeps, WE ARE GOING TO OWN THIS HSC (Y)


-
Reflection-y/resolution-y post later, perhaps :D
