The Ant



Couple of scribbles I did for Miss Eloquence's short story, The Ant. Just to double her word count, because, dat word count.
I like the first picture a lot better; the second didn't really come out the way I wanted it to. Ah well.

You guys (I'm not even sure who I'm referring to, because I have no idea who reads this anymore...) want anything drawn / any illustrations for whatever done? I'm happy to help!

Iris

Here's NOVA playing Iris by Goo Goo Dolls. Because NOVA was very cool.
UQ Red Room April 2012.
(I'm not in the frame,because who cares about guitar people, right)


(video from http://chee-seng.blogspot.com.au/) 



Back

Back! Took me ages to figure out how to even access this, lol.


Anyway, started actually using my tablet and Photoshop a few days ago, 'cause tablet battle. I've PS E10, and I still have no idea how to use it. CS5 would be way too much, lol.

Some results!


Yeah, that's a guild emblem thing from GW2. Finished version above, unfinished below


That's Anti-mage being a dork.

That's HiGene, which is probably the beastest band that ever existed.

humanity

Oh my god .
That news report about the girl hit by a van and left at the side of the road in China.
And the convoluted laws that resulted in discouraging people to help her.

So I was thinking,

Apparently it's possible that within the next 50 years, human lifespans could be increased to 1000 years. So if within the next 1000 years, human lifespans can be increased indefinitely (1000 years = a long time for someone to accumulate knowledge: technology is only limited by the amount of time someone has to advance it before they die (within that 1000 years, lifespans can increase further, and within that extra time, even further, etc.)),
-some people will be young forever, some old forever
-world population: GG resources, GG earth
-death will not be able to be dealt with - others will live indefinitely??
-old people can't retire?

Those will still apply to a smaller extent with any increase in lifespan?

Anyway, I have to go and do a genetics essay based on stats, which I haven't done before, GG. And I'm applying to be a PASS leader (which is like, a tutorial group tutor) and hopefully be a PASS leader next sem.

Postapocalyptic!

Week of doom is past. I don't have midsem break until like 24th Sept, but that means my next half of the semester will be short. Pretty good!!

Might go and crash UNSW, maybe.
It won't be a real "break" though, I'll have a bit of catching up on lectures and I'll have to read the textbooks or something. I've barely touched them except to reference them in assignments. On a somewhat related note, the turkeys at UQ are freakin hilarious. There's two just chasing each other like 2 metres away from me right now.

Hm, I have to present this journal article to my prac group. The whole article's based on stats, and I haven't done stats before, so I guess I'll just wing it.

Friday, September 2, 2011

So tired.

Prac ran 20 minutes overtime :/. Woken by a crow outside my window at 5am, so got 3hrs of sleep >:\/\/. Missed bus like 3 times in a row due to inability to think straight. Carried textbooks and laptop around uni all day, trying to finish off an assignment so I can focus on the exam on Saturday :/ after which I will have around 1 day to do an assignment by Sunday (most of these I couldn't start before this week, because I need results from my experiments, or group contribution from other group members, etc. before I can start). Then, afterwards, going to let looseeeee! Study hard play hard live hard? Maybe. For the foreseeable future, anyway. /endrant.

Actually, that's all I really wanted to say I guess. Don't have much brain left to think about other stuff, been (and still is) a most hectic and epic week. Oh, and if you windsurf with garbage bags, you're pretty cool.

Return!

My current PhD hypothesis: You are an bactercocciamoebacrobialgus!
Proposed methods: I will dissect you! Using a diamond pickaxe, a TV remote and a stuffed James Ruse sheep!
Estimated results: I will take all the items you drop, and auction them off!

So in addition to that, I just wanted to express how good having internet back is. Though it's very inconsistent at the moment. Still, prettygoodprettygood! The downside is that I can't do any bludging or anime-watching online because I have a ton of research papers, 4 lectures, 3 assessments, and 3 exams to read, Lectopia, complete, and sit, respectively (or not), next week. One of the exams are on next Saturday, too. UQ has something against me I think. Ahwells, bring it on!

I've been doing a bunch of pracs on cane toads. Actually I've killed way too many cane toads (or not enough, as some QLDers argue). I had 6 hours of pracs today, with an 1-hour break between each 3-hour prac. Pretty fun and stressful at the same time. Throat is a bit dry from talking to groupmates in pracs. I never talk this much lol.

Some random stuff arrived from eBay, so that instead of keeping my housemates up at night with lousy guitar playing (they haven't complained about the noise yet because they've been up doing stuff until like 1am every night for a week), I can just plug some headphones in, and no one will hear me! /sad LOL. I actually realised that whether I like a guitar or not depends more on how good it looks than how well it plays/sounds. Shallow and pedantique! English!

Also tried making deep-fried apple. (Yeah, deep-fried apple, what the heck is that, I don't even what is this). Was a semi-success. coated apple in egg, bread-crumb-like flavouring/crusting mix, and starch, and put into hot oil. Kind of, I mean, extremely weird looking, but average-tasting. What I don't get is cooking chicken with coke for sauce. That will probably be the next retarded project I try to make haha.

EDIT
I forgot about this
There's the 11 deaths in the house fire in the headlines. That's actually very sad. And the father that lost 5 of his kids and his wife. In the photos, it looks like he's just given up. They're still investigating the cause and whether the house had a smoke detector (the inside being burnt out probably makes investigation that much harder). And this: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/nation/surviving-father-leapt-from-burning-home-believing-family-was-already-safe/story-e6frg6nf-1226122662414. That father thought his family had escaped, because he couldn't hear their voices anymore, so he jumped out. Must be so bad for him.

Makes you realise that you don't have it that bad. Yeah, you DON'T have it that bad. Makes my whinging sound like, well, just whinging.

Journal

Man, some journal articles are so complicated. Almost to the point where every third sentence will have you wondering why you're even reading it in the first place. But then, reading some others and actually understanding them feels kind of good. I'm not sure whether I'll have to write them in the future, I can't imagine the writing process to be much fun (having been through it quite a few times), but if you've actually discovered something, writing it shouldn't be a tedium, it should be exciting, I'm guessing?

It seems that whenever I make a plan for a day, or a week, a period of time in general, I never actually carry it out fully. I always have my hopes too high. I guess I have an exaggerated perception of my attention span and/or patience. Typical. And my memory, too, it seems - I think I left out the meat for two days before I realised I took out the meat to defrost, and so I've nothing to cook because I'm actually out of food and emergency rations. And chocolate, even. LOL

Oh well, here's to all the stuff that I'm meant to do and to have done! Rest in peace!

EDIT

Gosh chemotaxis is so confusing, anyone doing chem/know a lot about GTPases and PIP3/anything want to help? LOL.

No internet.

So we're currently upgrading our internet, and TPG takes 10-20 days to make the upgrade, so I have no internet at home. I'm way over the allowance for my mobile broadband already. -.-

So I'm mostly at uni these days, leeching the internet. I haven't cooked for around a week! It's either been kebabs, Jap food, instant noodles or raisin toast and breads, and salads.

Also, the Fender has arrived! Strat is here! etc. I'll link a pic


Yep, never mind, I'll upload one.
Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster (made in USA!!1@!), with um a maple fingerboard, SSS configuration.

.
So this plays very (I mean very) nicely. (Though, now I feel really bad.) It's been named. It has a cool tremolo system and locking tuners to mess around with. It came with the moulded SKG case, with all the goodies inside, like a leather strap, locking tuners, lead, stickers, everything. (excited!)

I still like the sound of my black guitar better though. But it doesn't play nearly as well and isn't nearly as nice as the Strat. I also wrote two new songs in two days just off this Strat. /prettygood

EDIT
made yoghurt-flavoured fried rice, but forgot to add salt. GG

Gosh

I've spent hours looking at those already, I think.

What is this

, I don't even.

All this weird ECG readings and etc. And wobble hypotheses.

UQ had 500mL bottles of DARE iced coffee for 2 dollars, which was quite awesome, but that ended.


EDIT
omg genetics is confusing.

Strat or Tele?

So for some unknown reason, I really want a Strat or Tele now. Fender probably did some inception on me.
So, Strat or Tele? I already have a Les Paul, and I really like Les Paul's freaking buff sound, but it's pretty ordinary for playing with low gain or for a bright sound. But, I don't want to play like, Texan country music either.
I have no idea how to implement a poll on a blog, so for now, "lol" = Strat, "wtf" = Tele. Or just leave a comment :D. I want a white Strat or Tele, preferably with a black pick guard, if I can't find one with a black pick guard I'll probably just install one myself. Or a Cherry Red guitar, but those probably only come with the more expensive models. I'm looking at the lowest tier of Fender, the Mexican-made Standard guitars. Though at the moment I'm trying to resist the urge to rush out and grab one.
I'm going to go try out Strats and Teles on Thursday with David after uni.

Heavy+Medic

So TF2 is hilariously fun, but the peeps have stopped playing now :/
Anyway, I'm in Brisbane now, uni started today for me. So I'm currently lugging around 15kg's of textbooks from Co-op and other stuff around in some random blue shopping bag. It's quite ridiculous, but the line at the bookshop is even more ridiculous, so I bought everything today. It cost around 400 dollars ._.

Sydney for a month was very nice, I just went to the city when I had nothing else on (which was very rare lol). We never got to do the Macquarie thing, though, and I was planning on doing some laser tag or paintball which also never happened, but yeah. It was a very good break. My cousin came over from China, she's going to do masters of accounting at ANU, she left for Canberra before I left for Brisbane. I tagged along when she was looking for accommodation in Canberra. I still think the city/town's not extremely interesting or lively, but it's well structured and orderly. ANU is like inside Canberra's CBD, which is quite cool.

I went shopping in the city (Queen St Mall is actually pretty cool.) on Saturday, I had to buy all this food. I still have some things I need, I mean want, to buy, but I'm not sure how I'll carry them onto the buses and into the house. Oh well. UQ still is undergoing randomly massive constructions and renovations and whatnot, there are trucks and workers everywhere. I've no idea when they'll finish, but yeah.

I can't wait to play Deus Ex 3, though I don't know how good it would be, Square Enix stuff has been pretty dodgy lately. And I shouldn't have enough time to play it anyway. I'm doing three 2nd year courses this semester and a 1st year chem course, apparently the second year courses require much more input. I think I've said that before.

Anyway.

In the summer holidays, I want to go to China. Roam around HK, Guangzhou, Shanghai, probably go to the ice festival in Harbin. Anyone care to come with?/Can I tag along with anyone? I actually forgot quite a bit of reading and writing Chinese, so I actually have no idea what to do lol.

Wednesday, July 6, 2011

So like

Uni grades are out for me, UQ is kind of fast. BIOL1020 7, BIOL1040, PSYC1030 and CHEM1030 6. A Queensland 7 is approximately a UNSW/USYD HD, 6 D, etc., which are alright. I mean, they're pretty good >D (But I thought I did better in the exams, enough for a few more 7's. Ahwells.) (Which doesn't even make sense because I ended up with a 88.44% for psych, and 7 requires 85%+, so I have no idea -.-).

But more importantly, it's great to see people again. Bad luck the people who start on the 18th. Looking forward to more bumming/talking/gaming in general. Still haven't been ice skating yet this time around. A bunch of people are holidaying in Queensland .__.

My cousin, who is from China and is going to do Masters for accounting at ANU starting this coming sem, is over at my house, so my family got to show her around the city etc. Because Sydney > Canberra.


EDIT
NUU OMG. 7 for psych is 89%+, so I was 0.56% off a 7, What is this I don't even.

IS IN SYD.

So after my flight getting cancelled, I managed to transfer to the last flight to Syd for the day, because apparently that wasn't cancelled.

And so now, I'm in Sydney! Can't wait to get out and bum around.
Really.

Parents went into my room and ransacked it (i.e. tidied it up to an unbelievably tidy state). Which is cool.


Anyway, sorry for the one month without a blog update. End of semester exams and stuff.
Which incidentally I think I did quite well in! >D. Especially considering how slack I was throughout the semester. Hoping to get 6's and 7's for all my subjects.

Off to bum around. Will update later.

Also, I want to play Skyrim already! Also Deus Ex Human Revolution, and SWtOR.

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.

ahhhmg

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!
