The Year's Close

So it's already been a year since I was desperately trying to wrap up the past 10 years before midnight ticked over. Luckily I am gifted with an extra 24 hours to do so this time. Hooray for pre-posting!

Only 99 ÷ 3 days until Christmas! And if the pre-christmas sales weren't enough holiday saturation already... It's only the end of Spring, after all...

Playing It Safe

After the last post managed to get a strong enough response from anonymous viewer (which is cool, spooky, and conserning all at the same time), I am going to avoid talking about my life in the past week and instead... um...

When One Door Closes, It's Hard to Wedge it Open

So in between assignments I've realised that I haven't done a post for about a week now... admittedly I was considering one for last Sunday but never actually got around to it. But I went back home over last weekend to visit the new house, which in a way felt rather weird since I've never actually 'moved house' before.

What Not To Do At University, Volume 3

It's back! The guide that I should've read before I got here... no seriously, since everything in here has happened to me in some way or another over the last few months. And so the awkwardness continues...

The Week in Review

Been rather busy this week... A number of assignments managed to creep up unnoticed, luckily they've been contained for now so I can get back to my non-schooling life... if I have one, that is...

Palmerston North - After Hours

I am not a socially comfortable person. Just thought I'd get that out of the way, in case that point was missed during the last post. But a slight un-adventrue from Friday makes up the basis of this post, so let's get started.

Just Another Philosophical Bus Moment

So lectures have started now and the whole process of getting back into lectures has started, with a couple of assignments right off the bat, and some students are even dealing with mid-term exams after a day or so back. Yikes.

A Lax Weekend

Since my last post, there has been absolutely nothing happening that could be considered interesting to write about, so I'd better just skip ahead to the-

Birthday Season 2010 - Wrapping It Up

With my sister turning 16 on Sunday, we now conclude Birthday Season for this year. Oh, and I'm back home.

Birthday Season 2010 - 18 and Still Getting Used To It

WHAT. A. WEEKEND. And what makes it even more amazing is that I was in no way made to consume any alcoholic products of any kind. Which is good.

Birthday Season 2010 - Too Much To Handle

So with the days left as a 17 year old entering the single digit range, funnily the emphasis is not a my upcoming birthday, but rather dealing with the absolute logistic nightmare of dealing with all the work due afterwards.

Birthday Season 2010 - A Sweet Ending of a Weekend

This week ends with me recovering with sickness, and my sister getting a possible sickness from over consumption of a redo of the other sister's previous chocolate birthday party theme.

Day 133

It's been an interesting half of the week so far. Let's recap.

Moving On Upwardlyish Again

Too much change in the last week for me to handle!
Residency, Relationships, Revenue... it's all explained inside!

I Don't Think I Like Public Transport Anymore

You know, when I first arrived at Massey I thought having free buses into town and back were a great idea. That was the first semester. Now... enh.

3½ Days of Contrast

So rather embarrassingly, the last post I did resulted in me actually losing a subscriber. So this tells me to try and make my life sounds less depressing. Let's attempt to put some positive spin on the last few days.

The Key

So it's the end of my first week back. There've been no major surprises, and I'll say that everything seems to be going rather well.

All Things Revisited

Hi everyone, time to get back to another post here on the interwebs. And as a common theme today, it seems that I'm just repeating myself.

And The Results Are In... Part 6

Hey everyone! I'm back now after a much needed break from campus life... after relaxing a bit at home I'm getting back into the swing of things up here in Palmy.

Me vs. The World, Round 1

Ever have those days when something great happens, then something bad/unpleasant happens, then for some reason it just keeps alternating during the day? It's hard to decide on a verdict about whether the day was a success or not, so today (June 24) I decided to keep score. Let's see how the day played out.

How It Came To Be (A Fanboy's Story)

I feel inspired to write another one of those filler posts.
Chances are this one'll span a few nights writing to get all the dates right, but I'm sure I'll be happy with the result. And I hope you will be too.
So without further ado, here's my story.

Prologue
First released back in 1991, the Sonic franchise has been going strong for 19 years now. Since then there have been numerous titles in the timeline, spanning countless consoles, earning a spot in the Top 20 best selling video game franchises of all time, not to mention one of the first spaces in the Walk of Game. Who knew that a new mascot for SEGA would create such success?
Many people will realize by now that I am indeed a Sonic fan, but on a scale of 1 to 10 of fandom, I'd probably just give myself a 5 at the moment. Today I'm going to go back in time and see how parts of my previous years have seemingly slotted together without knowing.

And Now For A Post About E3

For those in the loop, the latest installment of E3 in Los Angeles took place over the last few days. And if you didn't know that, where were you???

My Thoughts on Exams, Among Other Things

Hey everybody, due to the long trip back yesterday, I was quite tired to do practically anything, so here's the lowdown on my last week at University this semester.

Sunday, 6 June 2010

Centuri-day

Day number 100! And here's the prize: you get to do four exams in the next six days! Yay...

What Not To Do At University, Volume 2

It's been 82 days since I first got here, and in conjunction to the first set of happenings-to-me that have already occured, it seems like I haven't learnt everything socially yet, since I'm still making mistakes. Lets continue from where we left off.

It's All Downhill From Here

Coming up this month: More exams, more studying, more problems, more things you shouldn't do at University but I ended up doing them anyway! And more great videos, assuming YouTube can still provide.

Day 75

Been a while since I first got here. Not much else to say, really.

The 4th Empty Mother's Day

It's pretty sad and implied that Mother's Day is one of the three days of the year that rank low on the happiness scale, although as with any day, you just have to stand up and dust yourself off.

Multitasking is The New Black

Happy Mondayitis to everybody!
I must admit going to sleep earlier last night was great - I actually woke up when my alarm went off!
Today's post features a story about our groups' Statistics assignment. Not much else happened during the weekend so that's all you'll be seeing today. Ooh! But let's not forget the weekly video!

Current Status: Recovered

Hi everyone! Luckily my recent cold wore off today otherwise I wouldn't have been able to post. But it's not as if much happened in the last few days, just the usual, so lets round it off quickly.

And The Results Are In... Part 5

Hey everyone! It's me again, back from another week of absurity in Palmerston North. Mid-terms are over, and the nervousness of how well you went in said mid-terms has passed, so I guess I should reveal all on how they all went, as I'm sure my supportive family would like to know. It's not all bad news you know!

Sunday, 18 April 2010

Back to Where I Was

So my university lectures resume tomorrow, plus our statistics class is lucky to know that we have our mid term tomorrow evening. I'm not considering this a problem, because for one it's multichoice and it covers all the stuff I pretty much covered in high school.

Picking Up the Pieces

So I'm going back up to university tomorrow, after a week and a bit of relative relaxation. And by relative I mean less than what I and many others would consider ideal. In a way it didn't feel like a holiday at all; just an extra long weekend, which I guess is a holiday...

Sweet Smell, Paraparaumu

You know, it's funny how you sometimes notice that when you go into someone else's house, it smells unfamiliar for a few minutes or something. And how when you return it still smells the same. In a sense it's the same here - this time though my room is vaguely unfamiliar due to mass rearrangement, and the trademarked family smell has been mixed with 'Eau du Scotcher'. A lot nicer than previously, actually.

And The Results Are In... Part 4

It's actually been a while since I've had some of my assignments handed back; personally I'm pleased with the results, although the amount of red ink on my Japanese essay was a little concerning...
