Hey there Melinda

I've got so much left to say, if every simple song i wrote to you would take your breath away, I'd write it all.

Ok so she doesnt actually read this, oh well. :) we've only been going out for 3 weeks lol it feels longer though.

Ok I planned on putting something far more constructive here, but im soooo fucking tired that I don't think i possible can... tomorrow

I just wanna stay with you in this moment forever...

My last exam is tomorrow. Haven't really studied unfortunately. I wish I got some motivation back. Seems like I keep trying to study then I get distracted and end up going to see Mel.

Gotta pick a project pretty damn soon too. I can either keep looking at the paper I did that essay on. Otherwise I'd like to look at doing something a little more original if possible. Though I have to make sure i dont bite off more than i can chew so to speak. Realistically I should be looking to optomise my marks, because I need "first class honours" to be even eligable for a PhD scholarship, which is kinda scary. While it is possible to do a PhD without the scholarship I don't think many people do because I don't think I could last another 3-3.5 years without an income. It turns out those scholarships are actually pretty damn decent too. From what I gather it works out to be somewhere in the vicinity of $350 a week. I can be happy with that :D

Anywho I should really look at some notes before going to bed and I should be asleep in 3 mins if i want my recommended 8 hours sleep prior to this exam.

If you could only see how blue her eyes can be...

It's another one of those nights... Got another major assessment due tomorrow morning.. worth an equavalent mark to that giant essay i had.. this one in the form of a take home exam. Like always I've put it off for ages. Now I have til 11am to hand it in. However it's a little less than complete. Fortunately for me, the other two people in the class are having similar difficulties.

Here is the fruit of my last (and prefferably only) 21 hour stint.

My Essay

Not very understandable... But you get the general idea. Also I have yet to read over it myself.. and it's well since submitted. It's likely ridden with typo's, poor grammar, bad spelling and maybe total nonsensical sentances.

For those who may not be aware, (I'm sure most people who actually still read this would know) I have a girlfreind. Mel and I have been officially dating for 2 weeks. Though unofficially for a little longer. It's going really well. Sorry if i've been a bit of a hermit recently. It's not entirely her fault. As alot of uni shit has piled up lately too. I will try to bring her out with folks sometime soon if anything is being done anytime soon.

As for now, back to maths.

Captains Log 21/10/07

Starbucks 9 approaching.
Ocean madness setting in. I cannae reach the control panel.

The world was our burrito.

Played it til my fingers bled

The deadline for my essay is approaching fast. I have one week to hand it in.. and Until thursday to do my oral which has to go for half an hour on the topic. Im boned.

In other news I have my guitar now.. And I also have slightly hardened, bruised and split fingertips. Ideally I should have an overworked brain instead but playing the guitar (trying to play the guitar) is fun. (sorry got distracted so no real post today)

Those were the best days of my life...

Standing in the spotlight

I bought myself a grey guitar
I'm never gonna be lonely


As the included lyrics from Mr. Jones suggest, I bought myself a grey guitar. Should arrive sometime next week. The sooner the better. I've decided I'm learning to play guitar. I dug out the old one which seems somewhat smallish and is missing a string and the remaining strings and crud and tuned it as best I could figure out how to, as as best as I could do for a 5 stringed guitar.

And so far I've kinda got the hang of californication, blister in the sun and the intro to hey delilah... Can't find many songs that I dont need all the strings for

Didn't go to uni today... I've been pretty fucking down lately

Just plain tired

This is the most recent comment on a post down a bit, I figured it's point I'd like to keep around for a bit:

""Jason said...
I both agree and disagree with Shaz; woman do tend to love geeks to an extent, but that doesn't actually imply attraction or anything that's particularly helpful for a guy.To take the Superbad example of Evan, pretty much every girl in the theatre had the same sort of "awww, that's so sweet/poor guy" style reaction to the scene where he goes off by himself to get drunk so that he won't be taking advantage. I'd be willing to bet a relatively small percentage of girls in the theatre would say that particular character is attractive to them or someone they would consider dating though.""

Shaz's comment for those who havent seen it can be read a few posts down, figured it was a bit too big to put it all here. But basically said, chicks dig geeks.

What I also must add, is that Evan from Superbad wasn't entirely your stereotypical geeky kid either. Mostly because his character was specifically written to be liked. Geeks are often the best freinds of girls, the ones who the girls think are gay and had no chance at all with them. But I'll leave that open to debate if you like
