Growl

Mirror's Edge is a really frustrating game I am finding!

In other news, this blog is updated about as often as VG Cats! Ba-dum-tish!

Okay so I'm full of curry and beer. Way too full T_T What a hard life I lead.

Contains 25% Truth!

*Sips Orange-C* Mmm, sugary sugary orange juice, with 25% real orange! It's vaguely annoying that something like that is a selling point. I want my juices to be 100% *insert fruit here* juice! But I suppose that's a premium I have to pay for and as I get Orange-C for free, I can't bitch too much.

Yesterday I was thinking it would be a good time to stop eating so much, eat smaller portions at meals etc etc, not diet but just reduce consumption where excessive. Then a friend invited me to get curry take away (from Chutney Marie's). We then proceeded to gorge ourselves on 3 different curries, plain and garlic naan bread, yoghurt dip and basmati rice. So much for the 'eat less' strategy.

Been playing a-plenty of Zero Hour, but that's about it. Went through the pain/epic mission to update Battlefield 2, to then have the game tell me that my local files differ from my friends, and thus we cannot lan. Despite the games both being fresh installs and of the same version. Sigh.

Work has been okay. I've booked myself in for a first aid course next month. The kids are making a good effort of annoying the crap out of each other, which is a bit disappointing. The school is still blocking to shit out of my network connection which makes me a saaaaaaaaaaaad panda.

Liam, out~

Scooby do wah-wah

Yeah so I haven't gotten around to pictures yet, but life will go on.

Life has been pretty good. As my flatmate put it, "this lifestyle isn't the most adventurous but fuck, it's good".

I've been getting used to the kids @ school, everything's pretty good.

..just a short post today.

About a month later..

So it looks like the private school has unblocked some websites for me - yay. This is related to why it has been a month since my last post, or around about anyway.

I've got a job at private school working as an after-hours supervisor for year 8 boarders.. I also live on campus in what effectively is an apartment. A fairly nice one I think, and 'rent' is good and you get access to good facilities. Most of which is great. Except for the internet :\ But I'll learn to live with that. Or harass the IT staff to unblock key websites (facebook/msn plz gais). Hopefully that's something they're willing to do!

So yeah, that's what i've been up to. Moving all my crap into the apartment, getting the place up to speed in missing appliances that the previous occupant took with him. Sharing with an old friend named Dean, so far things are all pretty sweet. This is good as just watched the friendship of two friends take a pretty tough beating as the positions of housemate vs friend conflicted. Most observers decided that it was actually the work of their girlfriends that actually stirred the problems from small into big issues. Oh well, women.

The boarders seem an okay bunch, but Oh-Em-Gee, trying to get them to sleep was a chore and a half. Only once the threat of chores had been made, did they start calming down. Alittle bit. Not much. Jerks. They're all new though, nearly anyway, so most of them are still excitable/about to break down. I've had one guy break down in tears twice now, triggered by what I thought was nothing. Like I asked him if he knew where he was meeting the nurse, he said no, paused, cringed and tears started. It was like woaaaah chill little buddy, it's not a problem. She'll be around here somewhere, just chillaxes. So yeah, I feel sorry for the guys feeling rough.

I'll probably put pictures up of my new room arrangment/apartment in the next post. Dean bought a nice new 32" lcd tv, and my logitech z5500's make a fine sound system.

Watched Judge Dredd last night, ahhh good times.

Got a guitar back from Red Octane/Activision. They didn't take too long replacing my broken one, and it appears they have sent a brand new one back. Either that or the old one is much cleaner/shinier/less scuffed than it was before.

Oh and I bought a kettle. Yay for having easy boiling water again.
