You whine like a mule !

2006-03-08T19:40:00.000-08:00

Alright i havent written anything in a while and apparently my blog
was whine fest anyway, so to keep in line with the whining, i
will whine somemore. Just to put this in context, im the middle
of a poker tournament, and my Aces got cracked by someone hitting
there K for a set on the turn. But other than that its been a good
day with poker.

Lunch should be partially democratic, not some person says i want
to eat here, and then get the rest of his minion housemates to tag
along, dont they eat every meal together anyway. Anyway perhaps
its bitterness, because I was living with some of them, and then
strangely i got evicted out. I guess it was like big brother, with
less cameras i hope and slightly less interesting. Anyway at the
exeter as i ate alone, the waiter guy said where are the others, i
said vego and loving it and he laughed, at least he understood. Or
i think he understood something by that, or perhaps he was just
laughing at me.

And also i went away for the weekend, and no one really noticed, i
may as well be invisible, perhaps i have nothing to say, perhaps
no one really cares, perhaps in a different surrounding i might
flourish a bit better. Its like that doris day song perhaps perhaps
perhaps.

May be ppl have used by dates in certain surroundings, and i have
gone off. Ks lost to a-9 and k-4 runs into Qs on board
q-9-4-4-K , im out, dang such is life sometimes...

Fears

2005-10-16T19:07:00.000-07:00

I used to think i wasnt really scared of much. Tho
i think i have this fear of some people not liking me,
not really not liking, but disliking me. May be
its not liking. Anyway, solutions to the problem are one:
- avoid these people , but they are usually people
i would want to hang out with.
- try not to cause them to have them dislike me, but
often i dont know what it is.

I think i start to feel physically sick. I also dont
think i function properly, and it affects my ability
to concentrate.

Someone was saying was saying my blog is kind of whiney.
And i was thinking grayte, even tho there are other
good blogs out there whiney in nature. And the comment
was just an observation, but then i asked everyone
else, and they all concurred. Its good to get feedback,
and interact with people in both a positive and negative
way, so im going to try and resolve this problem this week.
I mean u can just disregard what other ppl say, but thats
not good either...

Friday night

2005-10-16T18:30:00.000-07:00

Any one free on Friday night, thinking having the
footy tipping sponsered dinner/drinks. Wat
i was thinking was i just put the money won towards
the bill, i think the other 2 ppl agreed they
would put in, but if not im happy to put in
anyway as long as ppl are free. Should have
a few hundred dollars off, so not too bad.

You dont have to have participated to come along,
as long as ur name doesnt end in ad ur invited.

Only kidding. Register interest if ur free?

Offseason

2005-10-13T19:29:00.000-07:00

Wondered what sporting players get up to in the
off season ? Well obviously they get pretty
bored, crows player bock went and watched the local
netball team play. I dont think any boyfriends
or girlfriends even go and watch, tho at least
the team dominated, and apparently Biggsy was a
dominating force ! But cmon div 4 netball, i bet
he cant wait for pre-season to start :)

Quote of the day

2005-10-13T19:13:00.000-07:00

Things u wouldn think you would hear, biggsy on
not going to Adelaide united.

"Im taking a break from sports at the moment"

ok

2005-10-12T00:43:00.000-07:00

So may be i might write a post that people might
think what the hell was that. Did rk mean that ,
is he serious ? And the answer is probably no,
because sometimes i might write a post from a
certain point of view, a certain angle. For
example it could be similar to a character in
a movie's perspective. It might draw on random
things i have thought of, but not that I
necessarily believe. So therefore if you read
something in the near future, just imagine you
read a story and think nothing of it. Some
stories you will like, others might be boring,
and some might be interesting but could be
offensive. Anyway its probably not me...

Ha i showed those comments !

2005-10-06T19:00:00.000-07:00

Yes i have got rid of all those stupid comments.
Well actually i had no idea how to do it even tho
it was so obvious, dayle pointed it out(thanks). You
just click on the icon that looks like a bin,
and select delete forever. The question is
even a three year old with some computer knowledge
could have worked that out, but perhaps a monkey
may not have. Since i half deleted the comments,
that would put be somewhere inbetween on the specturm.

According to an article in the paper, gorillaz
are using sticks as tools, and there is one
picture where the gorillaz is using the stick
as a walking support and to test the depth
of the water. This puts them approximately
2 million years behind human development,damn
monkeys are gaining on us !

My mum actually cut the article out
for me, how good is my mum, she not only brings a
bag of clothes, all washed and ironed, bananas/
food but interesting monkey articles.

The other day i came to the conclusion, "I am
either the smartest monkey or the dumbest
human". I might get cb to make a shirt for
me with that on it, and wear it to the poker
in vegas :)

Trees and other music ?!

2005-10-06T17:46:00.000-07:00

"This is a song i wrote called trees, about a
man trying to convince a woman to fall in love
with him"

Haha, this is the opening dialogue of that trees
song. Obviously this track wouldnt work on anyone
at talandoon, coz they describe it as the the
shittest song. I heard the song when i was over
there, but after a few weeks i had this craving
to listen to it again. I couldnt find it anywhere
on soulseek, so i went to the official website,
and went to pay a $1 for it. Except that failed,
and i found the entire album on a torrent. And
it has 3 amazing versions of trees on there.

"sing it if u know it" - opening dialogue to the
acoustic version.

Anyway why is he singing about trees in a romantic
song, it doesnt make sense, or do i just not
understand the sensuous nature of a tree, perhaps
i am missing something.

Other music
I havent been listening to the radio much, but i think
i need to if i want to hear some new music. Two
songs i have enjoyed a lot more than trees are:

Foxtrot Unicorn Charlie Kilo by bloodhound gang
Radio / Video by System of a Down, this song could
be the best song of the year. D
(also downloaded the ladytron and gorillaz tracks)

Please suggest other songs worth listening to,
else i will be forced to listen to the rest of
the album by marty casey or casey marty , whatever his
name is.

Blogger spam ?!

2005-10-06T17:37:00.000-07:00

Where is all this blogger spam coming from , I mean
it seems relentless. Everytime you make a post, 10
seconds after, there are 2 comments, with blogger
spam. I like your blog, come and read mine. Blah
blah blah. Also when you delete it, it still says
the comments are there, just the content is removed,
how do you stop that ?

Cmon give interesting spam, if you are going to spam me,
custom fking spam the spam. Its ruining the fabric
of the blog , one may argue its ruined anyway. At
least on tgs blog, her spam is more relevant. She
got an adult dating spam one. And her post before was
about getting chat up by the most boring person on
earth, and then she has a conversation about the
song trees, which is more than about trees.

Rain X2

2005-10-06T17:26:00.000-07:00

I still play the sound of rain whilst i sleep, it's so
relaxing. Long soothing rain, is my favourite track,
I used to play the tropical thunderstorms one, but
the rain drops are too big, and the thunder can
get pretty loud. However its disconcerning when
you switch off the track and you can still hear the
sound of rain. For all intensive purposes, you believe
by switching the track off the sound will stop,
but oh no nature has other ideas. And all my plans
for today have been washed away...

The house

2005-10-05T21:55:00.000-07:00

Posted this long post, about the house we're renting,
and ghey sleeping arrangements, etc. etc. and me
having to film , but blogger crashed,
so i guess it doesnt really matter. I suggested that
we should randomly draw sleeping arrangements for
everyone and if u dont like it u can sleep on the couch.
But i think the moral of the story is it will be all fine
anyway, whatever happens. Ill just need to bring sleeping
bag. Anyway it was a good idea to organise a tuscan style
house, i might have to wear my tuscan suit to match. Or
may be there will just be nude frollicking after all its
maslins.

Usually i live by myself and then there will be a house
of 16, where is the middle ground, the isolation might
be getting to me ...

Relief funds ?!

2005-10-04T17:18:00.000-07:00

In this day and age , there are always poeple in
trouble who need help. Whether it is a hurricane
relief fund, famine fund, tsunami fund etc. etc.,
it can be hard to keep up.

But perhaps there needs to be creation of a dual
relief fund. For example lets say there was a
really annoying person, u know X. Now the reason X is
annoying is because he has issues, and prolly
needs a holiday. Also everyone else needs relief
from X, so therefore the need for a dual relief
fund. So what happens is everyone puts money
say there change. You put the accumulated change
into a tin. After the tin reaches some amount,
you put a list of annoying ppl whom you may
need relief from into a hat. Each person who
has contributed to the hat, puts one name in
the hat, You the draw a name out of the hat.

1/2 the money in the tin goes
towards to the person who has been drawn out
of the hat to go on a holiday and the other 1/2
goes to throwing a party when the person leaves.
Everyone wins !

I have $100 in my tin, who else is in ??

Where is ur mojo ?

2005-10-03T17:37:00.000-07:00

Is it my imagination or people are losing there mojo.

Mojo - defn -
1. A magic charm or spell.
2. An amulet, often a small flannel bag containing one
or more magic items, worn by adherents of hoodoo or
voodoo.
3. Personal magnetism; charm.

I dont think im really referring to any of those definitions,
but perhaps number 3 in perhaps a certain field.

Three mojo vicitims i can think of
frage - poker
barts - soccer
dayle - general

Perhaps summer will bring it back ? On the positive note
for these people at least they had the mojo in the
first place to lose it. I lost my poker mojo in june,
but i re-disovered it in july, i think its actually
impossible to lose it , it just becomes repressed.

Spring / Summer

2005-09-29T16:20:00.000-07:00

Spring and Summer is coming , wohooo ! The only
downside is they changed the menu at the botanic
and got rid of my favourite crab pasta.

I wonder when daylight savings is coming, more
beach i say!

Sydney

2005-09-27T23:41:00.000-07:00

Went to sydney for 5 days. Didnt do much, mainly shopping,
help set up my brothers apartment, caught up with a few ppl,
scoped the place out and went back.

Things i bought.
1 pair of shoes
1 small soccer ball
1 limited edition stanley kubrick book
1 pair of sunglasses
1 french legionairre style hat
1 sony vaio laptop (+ bag)
1 vodafone card and mobile connect
4 DVDs (million pound note, kill a mocking bird,
Hitchock collection, Better Tomorrow 1-3)
1 CD (totoro soundtrack)
1 Mad comic
1 Empire magazine

Talking to nai trying to explain where i was, he said
can you see the UTS building, and im like , ummm, nah
cant see it. Then i look a bit left and im staring at
this big brown building opposite me. Its the UTS
builidng ! Ha, spaz. Anyway thats where simon works.
My brother's places is next to central bus station,
so close to everything. Walked to shops on george
st, walked to broadway, glebe markets, chinatown
and darling harbour. Will be spending mroe time there
soon, i reckon. Also his place is next to a pub,
that has coopers on tap, and live music. Like living
near the exeter.

Watched the footy at home, went out a bit
after, seemed like no one really cared, Definately
not like adelaide or port winning. Caught up with lap
monday, went down briefly to darling harbour.

Plane home tuesday , lining up to get hungry jacks.
Turn around, hey that guy looks familiar, its greg
matthews! Looked older in real life. He ordered burger
and chips, sat at the bar had a beer. Also there was
a baby just wondering around the airport floor. Well
the parents were kinda nearby, but still i reckon its
good when parents let there children wonder around like
that. Its good for the kid.

So I was with my mum eating hungry jacks, explaining how rebuy
tourneys work, and then look at watch its 2.12 ! Boarding
was at 2 , woops. Walk to gate, then on the loud speaker,
could the following passengers please go to the gate.
"Matthews and Nathan ! " Ha greg matthews forgot as well.
We got told off by some qantas lady about not checking our
flight details. They say they have too many flights to
anounce the boarding times for all the flights. Its a joke,
coz in singapore with so many more flights they anounce, yet
qantas domestic terminal doesnt. Leaving the flight, my mum
points out only greg matthews and i have our sunglasses on
inside the plane, hmmm, I guess he is trying to keep a low
profile.
