Strawberry ravioli

So... I was supposed to write this oh....a good week ago...and i haven't because i've been REAL busy. actually i lie, i've got nothing to do and i'm just idle. well actually, i don't lie because i have to wake up at insane times to go to the hospital to do more insane unpaid work. i would tell you what i get up to, but somehow i don't hink it'll be the hot topic at anyone's dinner party.

'oh did you know this old dude pulled out his catheter the other night?'
'shocking, i kneow.'

oop. getting a little sidetracked here, all this catheter talk. anyway, lucie loo drove dondon and i to starf's big scary house (it could be haunted you know) and when we got there it was about half past seven. so i ate some of his (strawberry...haha!) ravioli (which tasted so friggin good cos i was so so in need of food) and we spooked lucie loo and donna a bit...and put up the 'juno is the best' msg on his fridge, just as a friendly reminder (sorry i took away your 'melanie' one mel) then we settled down for some priestly heath ledger. yes, i know, heath ledger a priest? on what crack addicted universe? but hey, whatever floats your boat man.

so we weren't really paying attention to the movie cos we were too busy ad-libbing the speech...well...ria and i were anyway...who knows, maybe the others were paying attention but one minute he was a priest and the next he was rolling around with some girl in the bed. priestly action? i think not. there was this scary bit where these 2 kids turned into scary looking things (my mind is racking thinking of synonyms for 'scary looking things') and i yelped...i admit it. but chocolate and peanut oreos made everything better. just like grosling does! yesiree.

so after the movie...which....i can't really pass a verdict on cos i wasn't watching properly, mel and pam left...so we were left to our own devices to scare the living shit out of each other by way of telling each other about all kinds of supernatural hoodoo...really, i've been scared too much these past 2 weeks. i guess that means no grudge for me man! unless you bribe me with some grosling or oreos or something. i might comply then.

so i don't know what time it was, but we left after about an hour of freaking each other out. hey that's pretty good for a week old ocassion. or was it it 2 weeks ago?

The Latest Terms of the Millenium

Yes! You heard right! Today was the day that "Games Day" (Hosted by June See) produced and announced the latest terms of the Millenium to replace the dull and drab ones that are "like soooooooooo 1990s"!

At the first annual "Games Day", Host June See, participating members, David Miu, Pamela Pinawin, Rachel Matthews, Ria Mapagu, Tanya Chan, and Wayne See proceeded to play various games and founded the new hip terms in the process. Games included Random Hockey, No-Rules footy, Vocab-expanding Taboo, 1-sec Monopoly, and Enemy-induced Simpsons Game.

Food and drinks were provided for the participants to sustain their energy for the duration of such an exhaustive day. 5-star meal of pizza, fries and cookies were laid out on the games field and proved to be both scrumptious and well-appreciated by players thanks to the mastery service of the host and Rachel Matthews.

During gaming of "Vocab-expanding Taboo", the issue of using Pamela's short-hand name "Pam" to replace the word "sheltered" came to the players attentions. This reason is due to the idea that sheltered seems to describe Pam. In the spirit of the new term, players proceeded to find a word that best describes what they are notorious for, which resulted in the following terms:

- June = Going out/To go out
- Tanya = Skeptical
- Rachel = Drive
- David = Alcohol
- Pam = Shelter(ed)
- Ria = Hair

After successfully applying these words into a semi-coherent sentence, "Games Day" had pronounced the new terms as the trendiest in the new Millenium!

So it is recomended that people jump on the "Term-tastic" bandwagon and adopt the crazy new words that will surely make you the trendiest kid in the playground and goes beyond being 'too cool for school'!

But it doesn't end there! You too can also make your name into a hip new term that can also double as a secret code among your friends! That's Right! All you have to do is find a word that describes or associates with your personality and just replace that word with your name. IT'S AS EASY AS LETTING YOUR RIA OUT AND JUNE-ING TO THE BAR AND GETTING DRUNK ON 10 Litres OF DAVID!!

So get Term-ing people!

NOTE: "Games Day" is Tanya about drinking David and Rachel-ing. Best take Pam for the night at a sober friend's house!

Christmas songs

Ok... So when your mum wakes you up after only a couple of hours sleep to clean up, the last thing you want to hear is CHRISTMAS SONGS blaring in the background. Especially since it's only mid-November indicating there is still a good MONTH away 'til the big day. Now me being a Catholic, I'm just as excited as the next devoutly Christian person, but REALLY MUM & DAD, are the songs necessary at this time!? When one is half conscious and is dusting, Christmas songs doesn't exactly whip them up into a cleaning frenzy!

But more to the point of Christmas songs... after spending most of my morning dusting to the sounds of Christmas, I've come to the conclusion that Christmas songs are becoming a little depressing. Sure, you can throw in a few bells jingling and a santa "ho, ho, ho"-ing, but it doesn't disguise the depressing lyrics that are crooned with it!

Example 1 - "I saw mummy kissing santa clause..." Oh geez! What kind of lyrics is that? It's a bit disturbing for kids, and if I'm not mistaken, it has adulterous connotations! That's taking the whole, "Christmas Spirit" thing to a whole new level!

Example 2 - "Daddy, please don't get drunk this Christmas. I don't wanna see my mumma cry..." Well i think the lyrics speaks for itself. *cough*ALCOHOLISM*cough*

Are we replacing the traditional Christmas songs of Christ's Birth and Christmas cheer for Christmas songs that subliminally address depressing issues? Haha.. No! I think it's just the randomness of my hyperactive thoughts!

Blog?

Blog derives from web log, that's pretty creative.

Purple monkeys are cool

Yes. It's official. Purple monkeys are cool! They're the IN thing! so everyone, I URGE you, go out and buy yourselves a purple monkey today! (Try and get them real, too, it kind of adds to the whole 'exotic animal' experience.)

Speaking of carpets, my carpet smells good, even if it is an ugly colour (personally, i would have chosen orange, but hey, whatever floats the real estate agent's boat man). Must be all the stuff i spray everywhere to try and make myself smell pretty.
I so happy! because today was last day of exams and now i can do whatever i want! like tp-ing people's houses for extended periods of time! and wasting my eyes away sitting in front of my ps2 for hours and hours! Hahaha i was about to write 'horse' instead of hours. heehee! I want a pair of lime green chucks. 'Cos then i can compare my shoes to limes in the supermarket and go 'i'm greener than you!' and just feel like the world makes sense again.

Anyway, all this chatter has made me a little tired. Bye girls and boys!

A few thoughts...

Most of my thoughts seem to go out on the random tangent a lot of the time... especially if I'm sitting in the still silence of my room. Ergo, the creation of this blog where i can share all my random thoughts that happen to pop up.

The more i think about it, my random thoughts aren't so random. My thoughts are often sparked by one thing or another, whether it be that annoying fly buzzing around me (in which case I'll be thinking why did God create such an annoying speciman... seriously, WHAT PURPOSE DOES A FLY HAVE?!) or the fact that I haven't seen the carpet of my room in a couple of days... or have they changed the carpet of my room into my sister's clothes? Quite frankly i wouldn't care since my carpet is hideous. It's been through so much... trodden on by filthy shoes, drowning from the waters of a broken aquarium... and now, it's putting up with my mental abuse of calling it "hideous". Poor carpet. Is euthanasia illegal for carpets? I think it's suffered enough.

Hmmm... so that's what i mean about my random thoughts. But then is it really classified as "random" if something sparks the chain of events leading up to that thought? I guess not. Random thoughts is "Purple monkeys are cool"... Random thoughts are those thoughts that make people say, "What the...??". Well, while that may be the conventional connotations to random thoughts, i think i'll just redefine it so that it fits in with the whole theme of this blog.

"Random Thoughts" - Any thoughts that you want to express, that may seem out of character from your normal train of thought.... OH SCREW IT! Random thoughts is just any thought that you want to share! There! Now that that's settled I'm going to leave.

Happy Randoms!
