Hey Hong, how's your team in D/P looking?

Thinking of getting back into it if you're still up for a game when I get up to scratch.

So, Halloweeen

It has come and gone, yes.

I spent it on a Plane. Watching movies. Failing to sleep. Eating surprisingly good economy class food.

Went to the airport by train. It was an experience. Travelling light really helped with that. Yay for carrying a combined total of 17 Kg =) On the way to my platform, I was stopped by a girl who asked me to open her bottle for her, which I did and then felt really weirded out for a while.

Made it to the airport. Ate 2 double quarter pounders and regretted it. Waited for my plane to leave and started reading Heart of Darkness just as we were called to board.

On both flights I had no one sitting next to me. It was awesome =D

Watched 500 Days of Summer and enjoyed it very much. It was my favourite movie of the year. Then I watched The Hurt Locker, and I very much enjoyed it. It is now my favourite movie of the year and I highly recommend it.

So this is my second day in India.
First day was uneventful except for Facebook doing what it does best, pissing me off.

Today, I did nothing much. Started some writing and then was interrupted by a 45 minute long nose bleed. By the 7th blood soaked tissue I was hoping I'd just bleed out and die so I'd be done with it all, but that didn't happen and so 5 tissues and 2 ice packs later, I was whisked off to an ENT who told me that there was nothing wrong. That's comforting. On the way back, I had another nose bleed. I did, however, also get some interesting dress pants and shirts. All that's left to get are formal shoes and I'm set to go to events I'd rather stay away from.

Speaking of which, I found myself at one later that night.

I am finding two things particularly weird:
1) meeting people that haven't seen me since I was 3
2) The sky is blue.


Yeah, that was kinda weird.

So yesterentry I brought you sock puppet death.

Today I bring you bandwagon jumping. It seems to being blue is the In thing, so why not join the fold? Does it count if I were in some part there already, and annoyed at myself?

FALCON PUNCH


Sergio Leone's films are works of brilliance. Mother's reign on familial spending has not stopped me from seeing at least 3 of his films at last. Take that careful spending!

It's good to know I can still enjoy things, even if in the end it still feels like it was all for naught. Mixing with other people, now that's another story.

So we had a party at work at my manager's house. A going away party of sorts. Well, it kind of was considering two of our co-workers have left. That aside, the food was good. And that's about it, really. I could have done just as well going home and sleeping.

But I don't really feel like going back to work again. For that matter, I don't feel like interacting with people a whole bunch either.






So the following conversation took place at work today:

Hey Shaun, do you have a girlfrie-
No!
... are you considering it?
*awkward silence*


when deactivating facebook there's an option for "I do not find facebook useful"

it then goes on to say stuff about how friend finder will make it more useful to keep in contact with people when you find them and add them

Never does it mention anything about there being an "I don't like most of my 'friends' on facebook, and most of the rest of them are retards when using it, and therefore I am deactivating my facebook because it's absolutely useless for me" option


I should probably do something about my irrational hatred of humanity and socialising. Rationalising it probably won't help. It makes me feel like there's something wrong with me.

Then again, so does everyone who has had experience with psychology in some way, shape or form asking me if I'm depressed.

still <3 you Joce and others (to a lesser extent maybe)


I think this entry took 3 days to make.

So, I'm of the opinion that it would be a good idea to make sock puppets and wear them as socks so that you walk around with heads on your feet.

It would be more fun if you dress them up with gore so it looks like you ripped the head off of a fabric person, hollowed it out and used it to protect your feet.




There's an ad for "My Snoring Solutions" and it has a picture of a cat sleeping.


There is nothing good I can possibly write about, so I shall just write about the things that come to my head (within reason).


Napalm Death's new album is almost unlistenable because it actually sounds well produced. That is to say it's unlistenable because it's too easy on the ears.

There is a general consensus among the people at work that long books are evil. They are also of the opinion I have some kind of evil look about me when I'm not busy being innocent and helpful. No one there likes metal, the person who confessed to liking "rock" likes the foo fighters, and thinks they out class every other rock group on the face of the planet, and the only person there with a PS3 hasn't got it hooked up to the net and is transferring to another unit.

At least I've moved up from being told to make more noise to being called a Ninja.




I hate being simultaneously loving and utterly misanthropic. I wish I were one or the other instead of wanting to slit someone's throat slowly and bask in their terror, followed by hating myself for the thought and feeling enough dissonance to end up crying in a corner somewhere.

I think Xin will settle for me having cyclothymia.






Check My Brain sounds quite ok. I say this as someone with no prior Alice in Chains experience. Don't kill me, leave that to me.

I Am A: Chaotic Neutral Human Wizard/Rogue (1st/1st Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-9

Dexterity-11

Constitution-11

Intelligence-12

Wisdom-11

Charisma-12


Alignment:
Chaotic Neutral A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others' freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it. Chaotic neutral is the best alignment you can be because it represents true freedom from both society's restrictions and a do-gooder's zeal. However, chaotic neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it seeks to eliminate all authority, harmony, and order in society.


Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


Primary Class:
Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells, everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar- a small, magical, animal companion that serves her. With a high Intelligence, wizards are capable of casting very high levels of spells.


Secondary Class:
Rogues have little in common with each other. While some - maybe even the majority - are stealthy thieves, many serve as scouts, spies, investigators, diplomats, and simple thugs. Rogues are versatile, adaptable, and skilled at getting what others don't want them to get. While not equal to a fighter in combat, a rogue knows how to hit where it hurts, and a sneak attack can dish out a lot of damage. Rogues also seem to have a sixth sense when it comes to avoiding danger. Experienced rogues develop nearly magical powers and skills as they master the arts of stealth, evasion, and sneak attacks. In addition, while not capable of casting spells on their own, a rogue can sometimes 'fake it' well enough to cast spells from scrolls, activate wands, and use just about any other magic item.

So last Friday I was looking for random work related things on google and what should my eyes wander upon but a JLA google doodle (sans superman).

This then led to the highlight of my work week.

Turns out it was for Comic con or something of that sort, which I wouldn't really be following much being outside if the United States and not being too huge a fan of cons. Though my aversion to cons is probably due to the substandard cons we have over here. Calling Animania a convention is like calling Mini Gigantour an epic metal festival. Though I'm sure the Australian public is grateful to all three bands that chose to bring Gigantour down under.

So in other news, my brother is angry that I don't subscribe to his, or anyone normal's definition of worth or significance. And apparently I'm meant to care about my family name. My parents and my brother seem to think I have it in my head that I think I come from a terrible family due to the actions of a few of my relatives. This is not true as I couldn't really give a damn about the family legacy. Also I'm meant to care about myself because my parents and my brother care about me.

The amusing thing is his through line was that I should check the source of the information I gather about myself. So should I trust an almost objective individual's appraisal, or should I trust that of people who see me through the distorted lens of familial love.

Either way, I suppose I should do something about this if I ever want to live a productive life. Not entirely sure there's a point to trying though. I won't even be around to see the sands of time etch away whatever I've struggled to achieve.

Run down of Transformers 1 and 2:

exposition from the past --> Big action scene featuring the military ---> boring humans and shit humour --> Fight Scene in which Optimus deprives a decepticon of its head --> Boring human stuff and stupid humour ---> half an hour battle ---> End

More than meets the eye?


EDIT:

Your result for The Director Who Films Your Life Test...


Sofia Coppola

Your film will be 54% romantic, 34% comedy, 27% complex plot, and a $ 26 million budget.


With few films under her belt (The Virgin Suicides, Lost In Translation, Marie Antoinette) as a writer/director, she's already highly respected and connected -- her dad, Francis, directed all The Godfather movies and Apocolypse Now. Sofia's good at making the romantic drama that is your life with poignant sullen moments of introspection. You saw how she stylishly handled Marie Antoinette's life, no? And who didn't have at least a lump in the throat at the end of Lost In Translation? She's already won one Academy Award for her writing, now she'll be the first woman to receive one for directing -- YOUR FILM!

Kind of a let down.

But I did get pictures with Nurse Joker, Sonic, Naked Snake and Zero Suit Samus. I got a free Penpen much thanks to Aust!

Also bought myself an awesome old school batman shirt for $15 and The Bride with White Hair and Grizzly Man for $5 each. Then enjoyed the cosplay competitions.


And that was all the fun to be had really.

So that was the con.

Then there was nothingness.

And now I am spiraling into rage, so I quit.

music: killing in the name - rage against the machine

I go to work and hear people complain, I come home and hear people complain, I go online and read people complain, and then I complain about it all.

Somewhere in Sydney, a man got his legs severed by a compactor at work, and was conscious, waiting for paramedics to assist. Cold Calling for jobs for other people is a depressing exercise what with companies losing contracts and HR departments hanging up on me without letting either party get a word in. People bitch about how hard their life is because they have to study for exams, and some of them are suffering more than most due to their procrastinating.

My parents can't seem to get along, try as they might. Dad is stuck in his old ways, try as me might to change. Mum plays the martyr all too often, and it gets sickening to see an otherwise normal conversation in any other household turn into a moment of bitter silence and resentment.

If anything, their care makes me wonder why I hadn't stepped in front of a car like I had almost done last week.

Humans just aren't worth the effort. Nor am I. The one thing keeping me interested in life is a girl with no interest in hers, and I keep telling myself that I've failed her. God bless disorted cognitions
