  • A few weeks ago, I oblitherated the spider population living under the roof/outside my window with lots of sticky tape, bug spray, and my red Arach-narok.

    I am now full of regret.

    I wish I could revive all those spiders. Or catch some spiders somewhere and unleash them outside my window...so they'd suck the blood out of all those effing flies that invade the GAB after nightfall. You see, since a week ago, the act of opening a window at night is akin to unleashing the horror of the 10 Plagues into ones own room.

    Every night I have to swat at the ceiling like some madwoman and let dead fly carcasses litter my miserable cram notes, my apple juice, my dolly noodles and most probably my hair. I can't sleep unless all those winged horrors are dead, because if they continue to live inside my room they would probably start laying their eggs on my eyeballs.

    I have probaby killed over a hundred flies during the last few days. I have realised three things from this experience:

    a) This has discredited the karma theory for me...I don't think I could have had quite so many irritating enemies in my past lives. I would forgive them all if they would just leave me and my apple juice alone.

    b) The idiom "wouldn't hurt a fly" is really stupid. I don't think its quite human to allow these disgusting abominations buzz around you and die IN YOUR FOOD without doing a thing about it. I would understand if the idiom related to caterpillars, or butterflies, or ladybirds, or even moths. But flies? They're really gross and their legs are covered with bacteria.

    c) I have finally comprehended the fact that there is nothing remotely romantic about a moth being drawn to the flame. That sort of dedication (by analogy) is incredibly foolish and annoys everyone who cares/doesn't care about you. It's enough that you're wasting your life away surrounding a shitty lightbulb, but then you go and just drown in someone's precious apple juice. You will obviously recieve no sympathy from anybody, least of all the person whose apple juice was ruined by the presence of your corpse.

    I've probably mentioned apple juice a few times now. You see, its because I am a sad finalist who only goes to the supermarket once a week, which means I have a limited amount of apple juice to sustain myself with. And thanks to them flies, the levels of apple juice in my blood have just..plummetted. This makes me extremely sad, and extremely irritable.

    Dear Reader....If you see a fly, kill it for the sake of humanity. Smash it into bug paste....or else it'd just propogate and eventually a horde of pests will suffocate you...and then countless generations of horrors will continue to thrive in the pubic hair of your dead body.

    --

    Aside from flies....the Balliol Ball was okay. A tad bit overpriced but...it was nice in its own way. (apart from the various comments about by...unusual...hairdo, my tummy, and the fact that by the end of the evening I couldn't really walk much.)

    But hey, at least I haven't hit rock bottom yet - there was this girl whose hair was exactly like Mrs Lovetts! Another relation to Tim Burton, perhaps....

  • The dancing Filipino prisoners are BACK!
    Seriously, I think all that exercise is good for them. 

    Not as good as the Zombie rendition, though!

    Kokia's version > Sammi's version :)
    The clips are from a movie called "The Place Promised in Our Early Days" - depicts the lives of three friends and the pivotal roles they play in a parallel world, in which the political situation between Hokkaido and the rest of Japan reflects (somewhat) the split between North and South Korea in our reality. It's sweet without being sappy - highly recommended! (NB spoilers in video)

  • I’m 15 for a moment
    Caught in between 10 and 20
    And I’m just dreaming
    Counting the ways to where you are

    I’m 22 for a moment
    And she feels better than ever
    And we’re on fire
    Making our way back from Mars

    15 there's still time for you
    Time to buy and time to lose
    15 there’s never a wish better than this
    When you've only got a hundred years to live...

    I’m 33 for a moment
    still the man, but you see I’m a they
    A kid on the way, babe
    A family on my mind

    I’m 45 for a moment
    The sea is high
    And I’m heading into a crisis
    Chasing the years of my life

    15 there's still time for you
    Time to buy and time to lose yourself
    Within a morning star
    15 I’m all right with you
    15 there’s never a wish better than this
    When you've only got a hundred years to live...

    Halftime goes by
    Suddenly you’re wise
    Another blink of an eye
    67 is gone
    the sun is getting high
    We’re moving on...

    I’m 99 for a moment
    I’m dying for just another moment
    And I’m just dreaming
    Counting the ways to where you are

    15 there's still time for you
    22 I feel her too
    33 you're on your way
    Every day's a new day

    15 there’s still time for you
    Time to buy and time to choose
    Hey 15 there’s never a wish better than this
    When you've only got a hundred years to live

    100 Years - Five for Fighting

  • Facebook message recieved today:

    hi, mind if talk to man 41 yrs old?
    if not mind add my msn xxxxx@hotmail.com

    What the HELL. This guy targets 20 year old girls and tries to "talk" to them. This is "oddly" remniscient of the hordes of old men who used ICQ to hook up with little girls. It's really quite disturbing to see all this start to happen on facebook...
