Moulting
Just because I pressed your 'On' button doesn't mean I made you real.
: James has been sending me daily Biblical stuff. Check this out:
[God] has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. 2 Corinthians 5:19 and 20
Wow. O.O I love Corinthians. The last line is especially important to me right now.
So.... I've been off being reckless, right? No, just more procrastination. The "work" that I am doing today is typing up my Extension History Proposal (which should have been done about three months ago), maybe finishing reading a book, but I doubt it. I love sticking to the Plan. Well, I love it when my Plans work, anyway.
By the way, the title is a reference to my hair. *blinks* Yes.
I'm going to set up a yahoo photo album mostly to make it easier for myself, and I think it will be quicker uploading and viewing.
Sorting that out now...
I made a somewhat hilarious movie on Movie Maker (old school) yesterday. Fun times. Stephen thought that it didn't make much sense, and perhaps there were a few too many flying random cats, but I had fun.
I'll tell you what else is fun: keeping Veggie Tales songs on 'repeat'. For a long time. :)
Oh my. *shakes head and sighs at self*
And I've decided that Sims 2 is a bit complicated. In my day, it was a bit simpler. I think the Hot Date relationships bugged everyone a bit, but things certainly were easier to manage. Still fun, of course.
My recent fling at DMAG has yielded much anime. I've been through 2 DVDs so far. I watched the ones I thought would be good first. I might actually consider buying the next of them (instead of doing my usual and dling). Actually, it might be difficult to find on the net. I may just find them in China. *Snorts*
There was an Alan Rickman movie I really wanted to see, but the person who rec'ed it had to buy it over ebay or something. I'm just worried about area coding. And there's that problem of needed a credit card. yeah, I can prove that I have a reliable income of an annual $15, 000. :
I want one for internet purchases, such as $1 computer games off ebay that I want, but also Koorong so I can get stuff like Veggie Tales On The Road CD without having to hassle the mother or making the trip to West Ryde. Oh, to be more independent.
I can't imagine working in retail again, though. And I think I would find Pizza Hut Call Centre (the family) distressing and stressful 'cause I can't remove myself from the horribleness of angry people. It's all a hierarchy.
Currently going to be another half hour until Semi-formal photos are uploaded. Sigh. I guess I'll get to work on that work...
Everyone buy March DMAG! Which comes out the... 17th (?) of February? It's either that or the twentieth. I'm just not sure of Feb. and March issue in-store dates.
Oh, and something you won't find in DMAG:
This was something I researched for the Weird Science section of DMAG. I think my editor decided it was too much of the strange-animal-doings section, so this was scrapped. So, just a sample of the kind of stuff I write. Well, the short stuff, anyway. Oh - I think the actual problem was that they didn't have any photos handy and they weren't able to afford pictures for this issue.. Hmm...
Sensitive Teeth
by Lynette Ohye (<--- Yes, she has a real name!)
Are your teeth sometimes really sensitive to ice cream? Well, check out the narwhal whale – it has a 2.5 metre-long tooth that comes out of its head, making it look like a unicorn. Previously researchers thought the narwhal whale used its giant tooth as a weapon, but the real function is to sense surroundings. The narwhal has millions of tiny nerve endings on the tooth's outer surface, which tell the whale heaps of things about its environment, such as water salinity and temperature. This means that the whale knows when it's getting into freezing cold waters; this tooth is a real life saver.

Thoroughly unedited, of course, so don't get your hopes up about my being a terrible writer and of course you could do so much better and why wouldn't they hire you instead of me? Well, my boss likes me. *pokes tongue out*
And I'm recognised by the Managing Director of Australian Geographic. *pokes tongue out again* So there!
Heheh... (*rolls eyes at self and gets over herself again*)
...
When saying to myself "I don't really want to invite these people to my party", to others it might not seem like a question at all. But there're some people I feel that I have to invite, even though I would have more fun with other people. And it's mostly because they think they're invited. Why wouldn't they be?
Hm..
And there's my 'I like/trust the people I don't really know more'. And the psychoanalysis of that is all obvious, don't worry. But the people I'm not super close to (and I don't feel close to anyone except my best bookend Michael) I find so much easier and more fun to talk to. Ettalong, for example. OK, so I guess I know Sarah and B-rad and Dave G. pretty well.. But my other school friends who I've known ever since Yyear Seven camp... Meh. *Waves to James, if he's reading this* You're one of those 'good pal' types.
I should post some of our fun-yet-crazy "rp"-ing. The role-playing is in inverted commas because it's not what I would really call role-playing as such. Still, - I have nothing to add on to this sentence.
Shutup.
^_^
And guess what - she still hasn't started typing up that research proposal! Hmm.. *gets distracted by the thought of going and getting a drink of illicit soft drink* It's not even illicit.
Ta, sorry for the long post.
