...And Anagrams Are Abounding Again

Okay so half an hour ago I came home from Kirill's place only to discover that Romel has beaten my Word Challenge score just like he promised he would. Credit to him for surpassing me fairly quickly and by surprise. Anyways, I decided to play just one game before calling it a night...



While I may be wasting my life on a facebook game, there's another kind of a game that I'm attached too. It's a game called Taboo which most of you will have already played at a friends house. Basically you are given a card containing a specific word that your team mates must guess by the clues you give them.

We had 5 or so games at Kirill's house and it was great fun, especially when Kirill made reference to that 'industry superfunds' advertisement. Freakish guesses from Toby came in plenty as well. One of the words on the cards was 'Ecaudor' and of all counties to name, he named the right one. Overall I was part of 3 losing teams and only 1 winning team. Oh well.

Apart from facebooking, I have my two mid semester exams this week, including Marketing on Tuesday and Economics on Wednesday. I'm not too fussed about Economics since it's comprised of 35 multiple choice question's only and I'm expecting the questions to be similar to the questions we answer on the weekly online quizzes. The marketing exam on the other hand will be such a drag ...

Anyways Yen set an alarm on my phone and I want to be able to acquire a sufficient amount of sleep before I'm woken by it. Au revoir !

...And Anagrams Are Abounding

How good was the Storm and Broncos game last night? As much as I feel sorry for the Broncos, I am so happy for Melbourne to be one game away from the big one. If it were up to me, I'd want a Melbourne and Manly rematch, however I'd be just as content if the Sharks were to win the grand final. In fact they're yet to win a grand final in over 40 years of existence.

Anyhow, I played a game of Word Challenge during half-time and managed to conjure up this score. I dedicate this score to Jasmine (yeah eat that), however this video goes out to the haters. I only uploaded half of the video because it would have been around about 20 minutes and total and almost 2GB !



Yen killed any form of happiness I gained from this score after blatantly telling me how Jade has over 150k.

...And An Airing #4

New camera. New vlog.



At uni on our way to programming - trying Adrian's epic fail shortcut.



I'd write a blog about the week so far, but Adrian has pretty much summed it up in his blog.

...And Amazing Applications Are Adored

At the moment, Jason is playing Tetris, Lenny is doing Programming, Adrian is being weak and Jasmine is blogging for Lenny. We are in the computer labs, being very happy about Programming because of the united feeling that is "screwed-ness".

But onto better things. Today we all bought cup noodles to eat for lunch at the I.T. lounge. It wasn't very filling so we had to resort to microwaving microwave popcorn. It still didn't suffice. Carribbean. Consumption. Hello Lenny.

Now for a bit of Programming. I will now create a script that will enable Adrian to stop being weak.


import Jasmine's.Strength.*;

public class Homo
{
private double guiltTrip;
private double weakness;
private double tears;

public void gainStrength(double strength)
{
if (guiltTrip < weakness)
gainStrength() = strength;
else
return tears;
}
}

Jasmine out :)


-------------------------
Today during programming time, a guy with a really weird haircut walked in. At the moment we are pigging out on Maltesers and Lenny's fave, Milky Bar. Jason told us he has AIDS, and is lactose intolerant, but is allergic to the malt in Maltesers. ............... But he was lying, as usual. So if he happens to have a random seizure and is squirming on the floor, we'll know what to do.... stand there and watch. :)

Now for some programming:

import awesomely.amazing.Adrian;

public class teamAwesome; //consisting of: Adrian. That is all. (edit: I'M IN IT TOO, I'M AWESOME - Lenny)
{
private boolean racist;
private boolean guiltTrip;
string truth = ("I am trash monster");

if (racist != true)
System.out.println(truth);
else
System.out.println("FUCK THIS PROGRAMMING. I LIKE FAT ARMS :)))) I'm kidding. They're not fat. Just muscles. :)");

}

Adrian out.
End.
kthxbye

...And Aquatic Appetites Answered

I went to the fish market today with the fam-bam. Went to Trixie's place first to pick up my birthday present and then we were off to the fish market in the city. I had never been there before and I wasn't expecting anything special but it was pretty good. I must have ate like 15 baby octupus' and an excessive amount of sashimi plus a whole heap of other unknown sea foods.

After hitting up the markets, I walked around aimlessly in Town Hall looking for potential clothing purchases that I should save for, until eventually heading home. Since there was train trackwork, I had to catch a bus from Granville all the way to St. Mary's. It had been so long since I had caught a bus that when I sat down, I actually tried reaching for a seat belt that wasn't there. And in other news ...

Go the chooks ! After missing the finals series for 3 years in a row, the Roosters have returned to finals football, beating the Dragons 10-0 in an ugly affair at the Sydney Football Stadium. It's also the first time they have kept a team scoreless since 2004 when they thrashed the Tigers 56-0. Now that they've booked 4th spot on the ladder, the Roosters now have a home semi-final against the Broncos next Friday. I'm pumped.

Right, so I am very well aware not every one is a fan of rugby league. If someone talks league, I tend to get carried away therefore I'll stop babbling on here.

What else to talk about? Only a select few of you will care about the following, but the the new Metallica album leaked a couple days ago. The album Death Magnetic is their 9th studio album and the sound steers clear of the atrocity that was St. Anger (their previous album). While I don't enjoy the whole album, there are some songs that are really listenable such as That Was Just Your Life, All Nightmare Long, The Judas Kiss and The Day That Never Comes. Their thrash prowess returns to the mix in this album and so do Kirk's WAH WAH solos.

Oh and Mark, if you are reading this, I am a man of my word, so either keep reading or skip all the way to the end of this blog to find the goodies.

So how's life?

Monday: Woke up earlier than usual to pick Nikki up and go to uni. I went to the library and studied Economics for a while and then met up with Adrian. We killed time doing stuff I have since forgotten, and then I was off to my economics lecture. It's 6 weeks into the semester and I think I can say that its my favorite subject so far. After the lecture, I met with CJ and we were off to our tutorial where she showed me her pro web systems assignment.

Tuesday: A perfect start to the morning, which had me waking up at almost 11. I left the Marketing lecture after 20 minutes to do my own catch-up study on the subject. I eventually made my way to the computer labs where I saw Adrian and Jasmine who had also left early. For the rest of the night up until the tutorial, Adrian and myself played the typing speed application on Facebook. Competitiveness really gets you going.

Wednesday: I resisted the opportunity to have an extended sleep this morning in order to meet Adrian and Jasmine at Westpoint to catch a film. We walked around Westpoint for a while, leading up to me buying a table tennis paddle at Rebel, and then each of us buying lollies for the movie because we are too cool for popcorn. I saw Shirley and Jono at Zero who eventually decided to tag along. The movie we watched was The Strangers which was not bad. It reminded me of the movie Vacancy, but was much better and exciting. That closet scene got me by surprise, and I'm sure it got Jasmine by surprise who was still walking up the stairs returning to her seat during the scene. Funny stuff.

After the movie we headed off to our Programming lecture where we learnt about ... uhmm ... ah yes of course, as usual I have forgotten anything that was even mentioned in the lecture. The only thing I achieved in that lecture was solving all of Jasmine's word jumbles. On the way home, we confronted Adrian about why he takes so long to reply on MSN and the rudeness behind such behavior.

Thursday: I woke up early today to head to Town Hall to attend my Myer group interview session, which to my delight turned out pretty well. I was already switched and confident prior to the interview thanks to Yen's words of wisdom. Believe it or not, it was my first group interview but I had a lot of fun meeting new people despite the fact I'd never see them again. I'm not expecting to make it through the next round, but I've taken a lot out of these recruitment processes.

After the interview I walked randomly throughout the city until I eventually met up with Yen and followed closely in her search of a summer dress. I want an iTouch now.

Friday: Woke up early to attend my Web Systems lecture, however instead of going to the actual lecture, I went straight to my lab to just study the lecture notes. I had my multiple choice quiz and then a bunch of us all went to Pizza Hut for the buffet. Had my programming tutorial and lab at 5pm and then finishing at 7pm.

Saturday: Had nothing to do on Saturday until Jin decided to have a get-together at his place. Didn't get there until 10pm though because I had to teach my mom and her girlfriends' how to play the wii sport games, and then I had to do my weekly economic quiz which wasn't too difficult. I got to Jin's and I played Metal Slug until 2:30 in the morning. 15 minute repetitive boss battles ftw.

Why is Mark Kemp good?
For those of you don't know, Mark and myself held a bet a couple of weeks ago based on the Roosters and Sharks game. Since the Roosters drowned 20-0, it is time to honor our bet.

So why is Mark Kemp so good?

If you ever met this bloke, it would not take long to realize what a legend this guy is. If you're one to judge, you honestly wouldn't imagine him being the person he really is just by his appearance. Once you meet this person, you will be amazed by his intelligence and his knowledge and concern for global matters. Just take a read of his blogs and observe his appreciation for the small things in life. You'd think this guy would one day be Prime Minister. Yet outside this layer of intelligence lies a drunken pothead who studies under the influence and apparently shows up to uni baked.

Rest in peace.
