Belated Birthday Present

Guess what I got today! Guess! Guess! I'll give you a clue. It's what the fifth little piggy did all the way home and I got the Legend of Zelda, Twilight Princess game to go with it.

I used to like to think that I'm not the same person I was in highschool. I've changed, evolved.

I'm starting to think I'm exactly the same person, it's everyone else who is less honest about what they think of me.

God Shuffled his Feet by Crash Test Dummies

After seven days
He was quite tired, so god said:
";Let there be a day
Just for picnics, with wine and bread";
He gathered up some people he had made
Created blankets and laid back in the shade

The people sipped their wine
And what with God there, they asked him questions
Like: do you have to eat
Or get your hair cut in heaven?
And if your eye got poked out in this life
Would it be waiting up in heaven with your wife?

God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him

So he said: ";Once there was a boy
Who woke up with blue hair
To him it was a joy
Until he ran out into warm air -
He thought of how his friends would come to see;
And would they laugh, or had he got some strange disease?";

God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him

The people sat waiting
Out on their blankets in the garden
But God said nothing
So someone asked him, ";I beg your pardon:
I'm not quite clear about what you just spoke -
Was that a parable, or a very subtle joke?

God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him

New Year.

It is now 2007 in Australia. This new Year started with relishing the new and remembering the old. I spent the night with some good friends I met last year, friends I feel I have become close to and I believe will last for a while.

Shortly after the New Year I saw the father of this guy I used to know on TV being interviewed. I was never really close with this guy, he was always nice to me although I sometimes got the impression that he thought I was a bit slow, but that could've just been me. He was hot, though.

In any case, I had known him since I was a kid. Seeing his dad on TV sort of made me miss those days and those people. Which is kinda sad, since I was pretty much a loner...

It's dad's birthday tomorrow and I haven't gotten him anything, yet. His fault for having a birthday so close to Christmas. My birthday's coming up, too, but I'm not really looking forward to it this year. I'm not really the type of person to dread their own birthdays, I'm usually excited about upcoming birthdays, but...

Well, I've got a feeling dad's gonna ruin it. He's been making me feel horrible for weeks.

Quiz.

I stole these from JoJo.




Pure Dork

47 % Nerd, 34% Geek, 60% Dork

For The Record:



A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.



You scored better than half in Dork, earning you the title of: Pure Dork. Like our friends Napoleon Dynamite & co.



It's not as though you were some whiz-kid in school. Oh, sure, you probably did okay in some classes, but were probably awful in others. Certainly most people thought you were smarter than you thought yourself to be. And it's not that you have some overriding passion, like computers or Star Trek that sets you apart for the crowd, though you likely share some interest in some of those sorts of things. You just like to be yourself, and want to express yourself for who you are.



And, really, there's nothing wrong with that. Being who you are often invites scorn, and so it's a difficult thing in a world that rewards conformity. Be proud of your dorkiness, for often it's just another word for individuality. (I'd vote for you!)



Congratulations!

Dork sounds about right.


C...Carbon

You scored 33 Mass, 29 Electronegativity, 52 Metal, and 0 Radioactivity!

Nobody understands you... no, not even organic chemists. The social individualist. You like your attention... but not TOO MUCH attention. You are able to form incredibly close relationships with many individuals, but you don't really get along with preexisting groups. You value equality in relationships, and don't deal well with overly submissive or demanding people. Well, whatever... thanks for making life possible... oh, and cut the global warming out.

Unicorn

You scored 30% Esotericism, 18% Power, and 4% Malevolence!

The unicorn is a legendary animal. It is usually portrayed as a slender, white horse with a spiraling horn on its forehead, although its appearance and behavior differs, depending on the location. In the west it was usually considered wild and untamable, while in the Orient it was peaceful, meek and thought to be the bringer of good luck. There it is usually depicted as a goat-like creature, with cloven hooves and a beard. In Japan it is called Kirin, and in China Ki-lin.
The word "unicorn" is based on the Hebrew word re'em ("horned animal"), in early versions of the Old Testament translated as "monokeros", meaning "one horn", which became "unicorn" in English. The creature is possibly based on the rhinoceros or the narwhal, a marine creature with one horn.

I ALWAYS get unicorn on these fantasy creature tests. So I guess I must be a unicorn.



A Childhood Friend

Your score was 39 in Unbelievability!

You are your author's childhood friend, and a good example of a fun character for fiction writers everywhere..


You're a pretty neat person- but still very real. You are a person of few extremes, but you have your moments of glory. When you're at your best, people can be wowed by you- but you're not always at your best. And that's OK. You're only human.


A novel with you as a character would sell quite well. It might not make the New York Times' bestseller list, but then again, it might. Who knows? Most people would certainly buy a book with you as a character in it. Well, they might wait for it be available in paperback- but they'd buy it eventually.

Benedick

Hark, Ye scored 70!

You are Benedick from Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing! Wryly sarcastic, but with a warm and loving heart, you look for love and happen to find it.. normally in the most unlikely of places.

You consistently need to assure yourself that you are not falling prey to love.. but everyone (including yourself) knows that you are.

A game with the Queen

I came up with a new idea for a game yesterday!

I was at the bus station waiting for the bus and I was looking at the change I had ready for the bus. In particular, I was looking at a couple of 20c coins. I was looking at the heads of the Queen and that's when I came up with this game.

What you need to do is get a whole bunch of coins (preferably all the same type of coin) all from different years. Then, without looking at the year of the coin, or covering it up or something, put the coins in linear order based on how old the Queen looks on the coin. This game'll work in Australia and probably England, too. I'm not sure who's head the Americans put on their coins but maybe they can come up with their own American version of the game.

Yeah. The games I come up with are riveting.
