So there I was.

Enjoying my blissful sleep miles away from any sort of consciousness for once, when I got rudely interrupted by our doorbell of doom. I proceeded to say with a somewhat loud voice, "What the ****". then rolled out of bed and stumbled up the hallway without knowing who I was to encounter when I had finally made the journey to the front of the house. As I fumble with the doorknob and lock, I make out a hazy figure wearing a brightly covered safety vest, and my mind began to wonder, "Is he here to fix the phone lines, or is he more dastardly?". After my struggle to open the door, I discover he's only a lonely courier, who has battled his way through the torrential rain supplied by the superstorm just off the coast, destined and determined to make his deliveries. As I look at the bag with the box inside, it hit me, that huge light bulb feeling you get when you know what to do, or what is happening. My brain exploded (metaphorically) in a sea of dance, no cares, no concerns, losing itself in an extravagant waltz. I soon regained my composure and had a delightful chat with the man about his travels through the tempestuous weather, and almost running into the damaged phone line hanging two meters above the ground (8 feet or so) outside our house. I signed for the package, sent him on his way with a cordial thank you, and bolted to the front of the house to open and set down my package, almost ripping and tearing to get to the contents. As I open the box, I slowly remove it's gem, a giant black one, spurting potential raw power and game-running ability, I was in heaven. And that's how I got my PS3 back.

Luck:

Something I don't have much of. Time for a rant/update I think. My networking class is going ok, not much more that I'm actually going to be learning in most of the course I think, but we'll see. The first term wasn't even worth me going to, but oh well you get that, I knew it'd be pretty easy anyway. Anyways, I've finally got my car ready for registration, frankly, it's lucky to not have any scratches on it from what's been piled in my way on the roads. For instance, I almost got hit 4 times in a day from people not looking as they pull out, another time at a roundabout, and one night some deer decided to take a stroll across the road in front of me. That was probably the closest event, missed by about 5-7 inches, would have written off the car too. Also, 2 days after I got work on the engine and axles done, a massive stone got kicked up into the windshield cracking it, so that had to be replaced, I have a nice new tinted one now. Hmm what else, oh I sent my PS3 down to the repair center in April, and still haven't got a confirmation that they even have it yet, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was lost in transit (not the first time something's gone missing while it's going to and from places >_>). Positives? Well I must have fast reflexes since I was able to miss all the dangers said above. The fact I'm alive and healthy is always reassuring as well. I hooked up my PC monitor into the lappy, don't know how I got by without dual screens before :P And nothing else has broken yet *crosses fingers*. I think that'd be about it, sort of quiet around here, 6 days of the Musical left, 4 shows I think. Friend's 18th shortly after that, with a band concert in between.

Well then.

We came third, pretty sucky, but oh well, did the best we could with what we had. Lots of people seemed a little nervous, they didn't show it, but it came through in the music. Hopefully we'll start on some better pieces rather than playing stuff from ages ago now. I've been back for a while but am just taking it easy and doing some mass gaming. Beat the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game, then managed to get Gears of War working well enough for an entire play through which was pretty fun. So yeah dunno what I'll be doing for a little while. Don't worry I have been reading blogs but a little to lazy to comment right now. See you all later.

Away, back, and more Away

Thanks to class, I got a nasty ass virus on my laptop, and I've pretty much rebuilt it in an afternoon and morning, spent an overnighter getting all the updates and crap going. Anyways, I probably won't be on over easter because I have National Band championships happening. I'll get my sleep on the bus trip down hopefully, I've had about 2 hours sleep since Wednesday and it's now almost 5am Friday here :P Anyways, will post results when we get them. Bye!

heh...

PS3 blu-ray drive failed. **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** Warranty expired. Don't have 150 bucks to get it fixed. **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** Not a good day. ------------------------------------------------------------- On another note blackrytonite, soulless4now and more recently, dj_pulserfan infected me. Useless infected fad is useless. No moar tags from me. Thanks for reading. P.S. Changed profile look again. Probably will keep changing every couple of weeks if I'm bored.

Hard Ground

Hurts my ribs when I sleep on it. I've been away for the past 6 days camping with friends. It was pretty awesome, although it was either raining, or 30-37 degrees celcius (86-98 F). Nevertheless it was nice to see some people I hadn't seen for a while, and those that I probably won't be seeing for a while. Sort of a goodbye I guess, for however long, until we all meet again, which most of us would like to do next year I guess. Just a short blog, I have sleep to catch up on, games to play and things to think about. Hi again GS :)

Over 2 months

Since I blogged, but it doesn't matter since I've done barely anything. I'm just sitting around at home gaming and whatever, doing the few casual jobs that come my way. January should be somewhat of a good month though. New Years eve shall be a musical one, spending the night with friends from band playing a few things and me probably humiliating myself trying to do it, but I'll probably be ok. Following that I'll have a few people over here a few days after for some fun since there's not much else to do right now. Then I'll have a break for a while, until the 24th when I go on a trip with my old group at school which will be pretty crazy I guess, I'm sorta pessimistic about it for some reason right now but I'm sure that will change after a few days hopefully. That's about it for news in my life. I dug up my PS1 and have been playing Driver all day pretty much. Even managed to salvage this video I made when I was about 8 years old. Enjoy, it's only short.
