My keyboard is really unreliable.

My keyboard is, yeah, ridiculously unreliable. Sometimes when I press a key, it just doesn't register it -.- Which is good, I guess, as it makes me write out more stuff with pen and paper. It's good for English HSC ahhah.

Trial results are backz0rs. This is actually the best I've done in a set of exams, like, ever, so I'm quite happy with them. My mod was really good, which is like o0wtrandom LOL. Looks like Inception and Starcraft the day before exams really helps. Even when you literally did not prepare for the exam. Sorry mod people =S=S

Anyhowwwww.
RICE (was sort of bad)
Was 21st August. Actually so was voting. I spent like an hour waiting to vote, and ended up being late to tutoring, and it turns out that my tutor didn't vote because she hadn't registered and the AEC doesn't know hahah. I voted Greens, because I think both parties will have a negative impact, in different ways; with Greens I was at least sure that the environment would be a positive impact... And, both hopeful PMs weren't born in Australia! Isn't there like some law that restricts PM candidacy to only people born in Australia, to keep the country's interests first or something? Oh w/e.
So back to RICE.
I think that was the worst Rally I've been to! Wow the people were so immature and disrespectful, like, chucking so many glowsticks around (actually it was pretty cool to look at initially) ! Also, some items were cliched. Steve Chong's talk was really powerful, though (as it should be, being the centrepiece of the night :) ), and New Empire, the band that played before the event, were good. I don't know; it just doesn't feel nearly as awesome as it used to be. It sort of feels like a commercial rather than a spiritual gathering now =S (Gene is that what Alan was talking about?).

ANYWHOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooOoooOOoooOoo
I'm platinum league in SC2 !! :D I'm currently like ranked 93rd or something, because I've only played the 5 placement matches, not a single league match yet. Oh well. Terran's pretty imba.

So I've finally cleaned out my room (well, sort of) (okay, I've started cleaning my room). I ended up throwing away like this whole massive pile of sheets and papers. It felt so good. Okay. Can't wait till uni! Whatever I get.

Cadets.

Eddie: "BERNARD tell her that she's not fat!"
Bernard: "Okay. Hey Tiff YOU MAKE FAT PEOPLE LOOK ... "

LOLhahahh.

I like being flagparty. Means you can run around and do random things such as spend 30mins looking for Mr Mcf4dy3n and then realise that you forgot to check English staffroom. But being in polys for the whole day was SO cold, like I'd literally pass out for passing out -.-. No seriously, I think people are going to die at the 7.30am practice on the day and pass out.

So we're going to do a post-cadet annual yeah? YEAHHhhhh!?!? riiight?

We gon' find you.

  I think that video Bravin linked people has gone and attached itself to EVERYONE's brain LOL. Somehow through 100 indirect referrals or something. I didn't realise until today when Murphy, Mike, Jeremy, Nik and stuff started randomly singing it at Romesh.

I can't wait `til schoolies. Like, seriously. Our (AlanX and I and maybe littlevictor and leslie) zX clan is going to fully destroy their MKGG (Michael Karthik Gounder Gounder, LOL) clan. In Halo AND sc. Probably not. But yeah, cant wait :D I realy dunno what we will do at Nelson Bay though, aside from beach and boating, it literally has a population of 3000, or something. But I think Murphy, Danny and stuff are figuring out cool things to do.

Our jerseys are like, the cool. I thought the design was really lame at first (sorry designer!), like, too much white, missing a yellow/green stripe vertically down the side or something, but it looks pretty cool now. I still think putting RUSE on the back is more dangerous and less child-protection-ey than nicknames, it's like an invitation to get shot or something zz. I don't really mind though. There's less than a month of school left; its kind of paradoxical, I think it`s too soon half the time, and think it`s plenty the other half. I've UAC'd, and applied at TISC and SATAC. Some interstate applications close at the end of August, so get those in quick people!

I hear people are going to play CS again; I SO want to join. Garena, anyone? And, oh yeah, since everyone else has a SC2 impressions blog post. I got SC2! THANKYOU PEOPLE. The amount of stuff I got still astounds me hahah. Like, the pen, 50 Physics Ideas book, Shantaram (book), ink for pen, SC2, etc... So much that I still feel really bad about it all, but really grateful :]. So SC2. I went on and got smashed by DrunkeNBoxeR (i.e. Murphy) hahah. I thought Marauders had the slow ability from the start, seeing it in videos, but apparently you have to reasearch it LOL. So his zealots obliterated all my marauders, and his stalkers the rest of my guys lol. But second game I sent reapers into his base and killed a bunch of his worker guys :D before he zealotted me again. (-.- ).  Its a great game. I've only played Terran, and haven't even used banshees, the flying science-vessel things (ravens?), BC's and ghosts yet, even though I've played like 10 1v1's by now. I played the practice league thing, the guys there aren't very good =S. Like even I double their score every game zz.

The prodigal roommate returns.

- Charles, A Beautiful Mind.

Someday I'll stop being a chicken hahah. Someday. Hopefully that will not be the day that it's too late?

So trials are over for me. I was looking forward to this day since last month, but now that it's here, it doesn't seem all that great. Mainly due to English speech being due on monday. I mean, who the heck sets an assessment due right after trials. Like, heck.

I think trials went well for me. Barring mod, of course. I found out we needed sources 10 minutes before the exam, and went to the library to scavenge a few names of historians loool. But then again, mod doesn't count for me so :D


My cbox got randomly spammed by randoms; will revive it after working out how to delete random spam.
