blackboard!!

So, for the first bout of exams, I think I over-studied. So for the recent second bout, I got murdered. Ah well. I think a mini HSC is in order. I had two consecutive 3-hour pracs on Monday and another prac on Tuesday, with a 2-hour lecture straight after until 6pm. Kind of practically had enough of pracs. But I'm back on track (mostly) now, so it's all good. I have a 1:48 model of a F-15 Eagle to build for when I get bored of both Naruto and Mastering Biology. The model's kind of huge, around 35x45cmx10cm-ish.

When stir-frying meat:
Slice meat into thin (like, thin thin) strips or slices
Add some meat tenderiser. Add more of this stuff if you're cooking lamb or beef (especially beef). If out of meat tenderiser, use bicarb soda.
Add starch (a bit more than the tenderiser), soy sauce, salt/chicken MSG unhealthy crap to taste
Add a bit of raw oil
Mix it up
Dump onto heated frying pan with very heated layer of oil, stir. fry.

Or if you adding soysauce/salt/msg crap, stir-fry the meat and dump like the sauces you can buy in glass jars from Coles onto the meat in the pan when they're cooked through, and cook a bit more.

Or if you really cbb, buy the canned soup. Or pull a cadets, buy some freeze dried stuff.

The Goreng is the last resort, don't abuse it.

The CBB complex

The CBB complex is a condition where one just cbb doing anything. It's responsible for around 98% of wasted time across the world. The other 2% are when one does not exhibit the CBB complex, but has it anyway.

If that made any sense.

The last time I tried to draw something, I couldn't think of anything to draw! Usually I don't even think of what to draw, I just draw randomly and decide while I'm drawing on what I want the picture to turn into. So, from that mental blank that made no sense, I intend to draw a sense factory! A factory where sense is made. Because everywhere else does not make sense anyway. I was drawing a minecraft picture detailing the usual habits of the inhabitants of the Hao368 server, but for some reason I couldn't finish it, I'm not sure why. By the way, does anyone know how to photoshop? I need to learn photoshop!

So yes.

The second half of the first semester of uni. Biol subjects are still my favourite right now, for some reason. And chem is still my least favourite. Next semester, I have to take a stats subject, which is compulsory for a Bsc degree, which I didn't take this semester because I wanted a break from maths haha. I guess I should have taken it this semester like everybody else, so that I could choose what to take next semester. Ohwells.

I'm bringing my laptop pretty much every day to uni now. It's faster typing up notes on the laptop during a lecture, than writing stuff down. Though, a lot of the stuff I write down are actually diagrams etc., and you can't really do that effectively on a laptop. So I guess I'll print the notes when I need to study for the finals, and draw in the diagrams then. I have an awesome speaker system in my room, but I can't turn it up because, yeah, lol. I guess not being able to be as noisy as you want is a disadvantage of living away from parents. But in reality, it does not feel that different. I don't know, but I don't remember having to really adjust to independent living. Also, I've been levelling up my cooking quite a bit.

My printer's out of ink from printing the 50000 pages of articles for biol earlier and then psych. I'm going to the city after I'm done with uni for today, to get some ink, do shopping, maybe get a new model to build, get lunch. Sorry for this very uneventful blog post haha.

Frickinggg reading 20-something-page psych articles is so mindbogglingly intensely boring if you're sleepy! Also it's about the most ineffective study ever, because you have to read every sentence three times to realise that you're reading a new sentence, then three more times to get the meaning and move on to something new about analysis of variance (something along the lines of F(2, 45) = 16.23, p < .001, MSB = 56.88). Supermassivemegarant!

Anyway. I got myself a model Messerschmidt BF109G, and an Eurofighter Typhoon (with RAF livery) from an ownage toy shop I found in Bris city. Building models is extremely fun, however one mistake and, depending on how important that part was, you be somewhere between gg'd and GG'd, inclsuive. I didn't paint them because yeah, I figured that if I used paint, my room will smell like death for the next few days. Tattoing on the decals is very frustrating at times too, but its mostly fun and its all cool when you have the end product. So now, on my table (which is getting dangerously close to critical density and ready to explode), there's a Qantas Airbus A380, Luftwaffe BF109G, and a RAF Typhoon!! I think I'll get more next time I go to the city. I can't bring the tanks from Sydney here though. Because yeah, being plastic and all.

At the airport, I lost my parents' old Swiss Army Knife. It was from like ages ago when they worked with DuPont. I think they got it when they were on business in America. Feeling bad about it. They gave it to me to take to Bris, but I left it in my hand luggage, having forgotten to transfer it into the guitar case I was checking in. So the security screener people got freaked out, and then chucked it away. -.-.

Anyway, I've done 2hr30mins of work today! Which is quite productive by my standards, I'll have you know. My room's a mess at the moment, there's paper everywhere due to my printer running out of ink halfway through printing out an article. Ah wells. Means I don't have to read it today! (Also means I have to go out tomorrow and grab ink, because the assignment is due on Monday).

A bunch of high school kids got off their buses at UQ on Thursday, for some unknown reason. Probably a school excursion to see what uni's like? They were a girls' private school, and they all had to wear ridiculous hats as part of their uniform (rofl). Thing is, their uniform (aside from the hats) was exactly the same as the ruse uniform. Yeah.

Anyway, I think I'm done for now. Only a few more episodes of Naruto to go until Naruto Shippunden. Yeah, I'm slowing down on the Naruto lol. GLHF!

In the bioscilib using the spare battery life of my laptop before my psych, because I finished my biol1020 test with 35 mins to spare. Actually now in my psych lecture, during a break because this is some super-long 2-hour lecture. Man, 2-hour lectures are kind of unbearable. Also, did you know that 1 in 5 people will experience/is experiencing a mental health illness sometime in their life???? Yes? No? Also, did you know that while Australia has the third highest HDI (or is it second now? or something), on subjective ratings eg stress at work, happiness, work satisfaction, it ranks quite a bit lower? (Mexico comes first, while Japan comes second, for those.)

Assassins' Creed 2 is a fun game. Except that it's not a good time to game, but hey there's never a good time to game. Basically you run around and assassinate people, and while you walk to your targets you pickpocket the hell out of the general population and be a general terror.

Would anyone like to read a bunch of psych articles for me? And somehow transfer their knowledge/notes/references by virtual neural osmosis or some whacko thing? I bought a humumgous architecture book at Parra Borders (12bux dude) when I was in Sydney, but it was too heavy to carry so hopefully my parents are mailing that to me soon. I'll somehow find the time to read that. More like I'll just pore over the pics, and try (and fail) to build some of the stuff in Minecraft. Or I'll get Simon to build them, he likes major projects.

Yeah, I think when I graduate and I'm like a resident or something (freaking long way to go!), I'll go to some megacity or some ridiculous metropolis like NY or Seoul or Shanghai or something. Hopefully I can do my specialisation in like, America. 

Louisa Zhang! linked me to the best parody I've seen for this year. Youtube form this way - Minecraft parody. I would embed it here, but the link I paste keeps directing to a Rihanna video -.-
