there are like 275 smiles? but that's for ... for you know ... advanced

we especially love how she tries to make everything sound so bloody difficult

so i'm nearing the end of my first semester in sydney! and actually i think i'm doing way better here than i was at uwa. and actually, even if grades-wise i'm not, life-wise i am. i think buttons will know what i mean when i say yew-dub is one of those confidence-shattering places.

i think the lecturers here are more confident in their intellectual abilities than they are in small-town perth so there's no need to constantly put people down in order to assert their intelligence. like the only nice lecturers at uwa are either old/went somewhere fancy for their degree/are highly qualified.

anyway, a.p. reckons it's a perth-thing. who knows.

also, girls of sydney: a shirt is not a dress and leggings are not trousers. and you are not lindsay lohan.

purely for procrastination purposes, and also shits and giggles. provided by your friendly local sheep!

it started out with me trying to see if my mobile alarm would go off even if the phone was in silent mode.

sheep says:
isitringing?
i mean sounding

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
dunno
i set it for 2 mins into the future
1min to go

sheep says:
the...future...
hey did u ever realize right that we are all time travellers

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
oh it does [ring]
what?
forwards time travellers?

sheep says:
tt's right!
we travel through time...allll the time

(obviously pleased with herself. i could almost see the look of corny glee on her face.)

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
i thnk "time traveller" by default means um...

sheep says:
NO DONT SAY IT
SHH

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
back
or far forward
oh

sheep says:
don't ruin it!

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
ok

sheep says:
=(

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
sorry

sheep says:
u ruined the romance of it!

later on...

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
u shld bring it up to ____

sheep says:
...
!!!!!!!
ARE YOU COMPARING ME WITH HER

:: stupid loser girlie :: says:
no i'm saying u shld say it to her n see her reaction
"WAH SHEEP U R SO SMART"

sheep says:
more likely it will inspire ____ to write some post abt how when u are a time traveller isnt it nice to always be close to home (i.e. time travel with ur [insert degrading pet name])
so she wishes they both cld travel together in the tardis
as long as he's by her side
as they travel together in time
she's always home

so you see, dr. who can be poetic too. also, sheep is a big geek. also, the phone does ring even if it's in silent mode.

sheep sent me this test on facebook. and a week after getting my result, okcupid sends me this awful email that assumes i'm some kind of desperado!

apparently "Since [i'm] single and female", they thing i'll like their "matching system. There's no pressure and it's like one massive game of Q & A with millions of strangers at once. Try it!"

oh and "by the way", the fact that i "scored The Window Shopper on the OkCupid Test has caused a certain amount of automated commotion in [their] software. Nicely done."

why thank you okcupid. what ever the hell would i do without you to attempt to matchmake me with a billion freaks from across the cosmos.
