as if you all needed to procrastinate more (although i admit i procrastinate the most), here's yet another comic for you to read!

nothing much happened today, but i did get told a couple of funny things that i thought i'd share. to distract you all from the lack of substance you'll notice i added colours =P

at lunch ...

stoo: audrey said this girl at her mum's school came in wearing nothing but a short jumper and tights.
me: um. so?
stoo: and no pants.
me: um. eew. skirt?
stoo: nein.
me: skank! that's nuts.
stoo: she said "yeah but all the other girls are doing it too". but they had pants on. or a skirt.

and on msn

" B* :

B :

so that's why it's here.

* name has been changed to protect the person involved

mitch hedberg is funny. in one of his shows he asks where sesame seeds come from. you get some stuck to big macs, they get turned into oil, invoking the great name of sesame opens stuff, and it's also a street. but what is a sesame ?! i posed the question to the dinner table last night and nobody knew.

aged auntie: it grows on a tree. a sesame tree.
no it doesn't =_=

ordery: it's like a fruit. and you crack it open and all the seeds spill out. like .. a seed fruit. thing.
lies.

so anyway, once again wikipedia saves the day, and all's right with the world.

oh my! it is my retorded cousin's birthday !!

happy buh-buh-buhrthday man ! th'art the best cousin a girlie could ever hope for.

ohhh item from japan (that can't be disclosed here lest recipient finds out what it is) .. why do you elude me so.

you know that thing that everyone (well ok, mostly i) like to do? where you combine 2 or more words into one really long funny word? it's called a portmanteau.

that's all really.

ok go!


tim nordwind luv!

and a whole bunch of other vids here

wah. two useless posts in one day.

this sketch by jasonshogreen is really cute. but it reminded me of the depressed tourist at carl's jr. last year. the one who said "y'all love american burgers" to nobody in particular and left without touching his meal. i hope he's ok.

mark your calendars folks! i will be terrorizing south east asian soil from 4th november till 6th jan.

Your walk is: Pirate-esque Take this quiz at QuizGalaxy.com

moo i dont know what's wrong with the .gif file, but as you can see, my walk is pirate-esque! although sometimes i think it's less johnny-depp-pirate and more vcd-pirate =P

confession: these chinese songs are growing on me. 五月天 (mayday) is actually quite a tight band ! but then i my computer doesn't read chinese file names, and neither does my itunes. so all the song titles read "squaresquaresquare" =(

anyway, my birthday is in about 2 months time. 2 months and a bit to be precise. sooooo anybody wanna get me 五月天 cds ?!

and who'dve thunk i'd listen to chinese music ?!?! o well, might as well embrace my heritage =P

and no, hell has not frozen over!

p.s. guan you is cuuuute =D

dont know how many of you actually read marriedtothesea. it's usually funny and always bizarre. but today's is especially chortle-worthy!

hey guys! video nite at sheepman's!

edit:
or else, check out the pictures at the andynator's (wikkiwikkiwow!) the fine arts dudes finally produced something decent looking! as opposed to the creepy shit they sometimes come up with. yes mr. half-shorn-latex-body-parts-sculpting-and-mutilating-man, i'm talkin' to you.

n.b. i realize i look quite terrigible but gimme a break yo, some peoples were at uni a veeeery long time. thunderthighsahoy =_=

so all of a sudden i have this craving for pistachio macaroons. they are so tasty! if only i had a macaroon fairy to conjure one up in whatever flavour i desired =P

o, putrid-looking-green-cookie-that-actually-tastes-really-good .. how i miss thee!

<

does anyone know where to get these in perth ? short of making them myself that is .. i'm no nigella lawson.

happy birthday, bboj!

actually his birthday was yesterday but i spent the whole day at uni ... so this is a day late in posting, although he did get a present! so i am not completely terrible =P

in other news, what's going on with blogger? is google taking over the world ?!?!

what have i learned from ATR so far? the golden section/rectangle/ratio can be applied to just about anything. like iPod for example! the proportions up to the tip of the screen form a golden section, and the centre of the dial = the centre of the square that forms the base of the golden section*.

see, iPods r cLasSy.

* it was not me who thought of applying it to the iPod .. i was merely carrying out someone else's idea. so while that in itself is pretty nerdy, i am NOT, i repeat NOT a completely hopeless case.

wow .. just .. just wow ...

courtesy of mein cousin, check out this store! it has sleepwear, sportswear, t-shirts* .. and all other kinds of um .. garments.

no cover front & back can tear clip bikini anyone?

* sorry i'm not home right now i'm walking in a spider weD. *chortle*

being a wee waffle monkey who only works one shift a week, i told myself i'd only purchase one item of clothing this semester and save as much moolah as i can for my trip to singapore at the end of the year.

THIS is that one item of clothing! and it's finally on auction in my size!!!!!!!!!! ever since darryl hannah wore this coat :

in kill bill vol. 1, i've been pining for something with a belt printed on it, and this one has a belt and pleats and the whole shebang!

bidding ends in 6 days ... if it's meant to be*, then the price won't have gone up by that much and i will be the proud owner of this dress.

* this is the shopping karma theory i have btw.

the ultimate betrayal ...

is when your sister starts singing along to the worst song ever in the history of a band, after agreeing that it is indeed the worst song ever in the history of a band - not just ONCE, but MANYMANY TIMES in the car, in the queue, and at other various points while waiting for the gig to start.

BEDROOM SCENE

here's a music video for some guy called bedroom scene, directed by some other guy called dick thompson. i don't know those other guys are but the song is catchy and the video is nice!! and i just found it because one of the girls (tombflower) is the gf of the guy who created lenore, the cute little dead girl (roman dirge). not to be mistaken for the other guy who wrote about lenore first, and on whom the comic one is based on.

oh strokes, you did not disappoint us one bit! fab + nikolai are cute and it was just fantasmo =) a small part of my brain is panicking like crazy because the deadlines still haven't gone away, but i can't hear the alarm bells sounding because of the ringing in my ears.

the crowd was kindof shove-y even though the moshpit was only two-thirds full, and stupid underaged skanks kept trying to push their way to the front. but! the little miss loos aren't ones to be pushed around, hence many "accidents" befell them [evil laughter]

and thank god for stripey-shirted-mosh-pit-saviour-guy who helped us escape tramplings many-a-time. photos will have to be procured from various members of our posse but they will be up asap! now excuse me while i go wash other people smell off me!

wee hoo it's national day in singapore! if you want to give a gift to singapore, you may go here. but i do suggest having a sickbag handy. sheepman has nice national day vid you may like to check out.

also, since you know it's national day and we're away in another country *koff*quitters*koff* i was just thinking about the motherland and wondering why she calls herself the republic of singapore. technically she is, i mean there's elections but then most of those are walkovers and then we all know who's going to win so it's not really a competition (just like australia at the cricket), it's just a chance to wave their balls at the opposition and laugh. but then also it's not entirely an oligarchy because two people from the same family don't really count right? but perhaps this is only the beginning of an era. and maybe you can say dictatorship but that word is completely taboo and if i even say the word "tartar" i'm pretty sure somebody will threaten my family. so how? there's not an exact word to describe the state of government right now, so i'm creating one: repolitatorship. the repolitatorship of singapore. all in the spirit of combining 2 - or even 3 ! - names to indicate a union! brangelina, spederline, infotainment, edutainment, REPOLITATORSHIP! i think it has a certain ring to it.

it's not that singapore necessarily needs to be called a republic of something something because everyone just says "singapore" anyway. but maybe having an officially long long name helps cover up the fact that the country is a small small place? and "repolitatorship" has 6 whole letters over "republic", not to mention twice as many syllables.

although judging by some of the other countries on the list of republics, maybe people know it's all kind of a sham .. afterall it's all just words anyway right?

strokes to-mor-row !! i'd be more excited if my mind wasn't already filled with:

1. being a bit upset that dad threw out my lego bucket before we moved. my poor figurines! i had people and a hippo and a fox. not to mention windmills and flowers and all kinds of things. the only thing that remains is this castle that my sisters made for me once. and i kind of want to try making a mass model out of lego for the cancer centre we're doing for studio. he's said he'll get another bucket =P but it's just not the same without chaochao and his gf chaobek (stinky and stinkyrebecca)

2. this ArchitecturalTechnicalResolution unit is really shitty =( even if you keep telling yourself "architecture students learning to hand-draw ees just like a chef learning to chop veggies. eet ees a necessary skill" in this italian voice coming from a man who looks like hairy version of pingu, it doesn't help. can i please hone these hand-drawing skills some other time? thanks.

3. i decided to do my research paper on the port bouvard phenomenon because i thought it'd be fun to drive down to have a look and knock on doors etcetc. but now i am lazy. but i can't think of anything else to do. does anyone out there live or know people who live in port bouvard? i would very much like to interview you and take pictures of your house if you don't mind. or maybe you do, then i'd just like to interview you at least.

whingewhingewhinge. so anyway that's it. pictures tomorrow !!

waaaah guess who is procrastinatey!!! 3 posts + 1 picture update in 2 days?! after a year and a bit of that same ole samurai bunny, i've replaced him! if you're feeling the need to know about the background on this guy, read on. otherwise, skip the bits in pink.

" kurahashi zensuke takeyuki

kurahashi takeyuki was a fine hot-tempered swordsman and performed well in the attack on the kono mansion. he had studied the floor plan of the house, wchich the yazama brothers ahd secured from yasuemon, the chief carpenter. so he knew that there were certain hidden details in its construction.
he hacked his way into moronao's bedroom just after moronao had fled, leaving a rumped bed. takeyuki felt the bedclothes and found them still warm.
he knew moronao could not have gone far, so he snagged the scroll out of the alcove and pushed on the wall it had been hanging on. it was a secret door into the garden! he charged through it and on seeing the storage shed for the garden apartments knew moronao must be there.
yazama, senzaki and takebayashi circled the shed and poured arrows into it from their hsort bows. two men ran out, and takeyuki took them on. "

now you may or may not know, but these bunnies are based on a real series of prints by kuniyoshi. the original intention was to have a collection of all 47 ronin + their wives + their chef + extras. not all of them lend themselves well to bunnification, but then if i keep working on them at this rate, i'll have the complete set by the time i'm 64! look forward to that!


on a completely different note:
dad [walking up the stairs] : hello! realtyone rookie of the year is home
mum : what prize did they give you?
[dad passes mum a box]
mum: stainless steel forks? what the ..
dad: ya what do you think they're trying to say ah?
mum: fork you lah.
[both break out into giggles]

honestly! sometimes they're worse than us =P

once again, from marie the queen of ebay...

apparently she is searching for clothes by the brand "body"*, and always ends up with weird fetish items** ...

* but i don't quite believe her. hehehe.

** note how on the auction page it says "new condition never worn" YET there is a fat hairy man modelling the thing. unless there are many of it. but in any case, EEEEEEEEEEEEEW

today's pvp is great! i lurve scratch fury. so evil, so neurotic, so easily distracted.

also, happy birthday nick ol' buddy ol' pal !!

this is it! the moment i have been eagerly awaiting for the past two weeks ... *drum roll* my melbourne photos! i think i've used up this month's flickr allowance too hurhur. but oh well. it's not like i'm going for another holiday anytime soon.

in other news, da's got a pretty racy postcard up on her blog. trust uni to distribute things like that.

o, my ridiculous flickr account. will you please reset yourself?! *kick*
