All i need is a little resolve.

Ok this is the first time i've ever even considered new years resolutions. But given how ill i made myself feel today it's a good year to start.

Allow me to introduce the Fuck-up Jar. An adaptation of the swear jar. As alcohol is clearly my biggest problem and the reason for the resolutions most of it is to do with alcohol. From now on a jar will sit on my desk and every time I do something that is listed below, the associated fine is to be placed in the jar. I want to say that i can't ever have the money back.. like donate it to charity or something but i think thats asking too much of me. Maybe it'll sit in the jar until i've stopped having to put money in it and i feel it is no longer required. Then i can spend it on something useful... who knows.


Drinking "too much" (without a good reason such as 21st, st pats day etc.) - $50
Drinking twice that (like last night) - $100 (no exceptions)
Jogging/walking less than 10km per week - $10 per km less than 10km
Overdue uni work - $10 per day late (weekends count as 1 day)

Revisions and additions to ensue.

Happy new years everyone.

#9. Something To Be

Sunburnt. Tired. Hungover. Depressed. Hungry.

I drink too much. Thats it. I'm done with the pub scene... unless there is a big group going i'm not.... It's pathetic going to flannies every thursday and just talking to the people i know there and meet there. For the most part these people are freaks and losers.
Like me.

I need a more normal life. Working when nobody else is on weekends.. then not doing anything during the week....

Boredom breeds destruction.

virtual insanity

Went to kelly's in cranny last night. Saw kasie again for the first time in yonks. And dear lord!! Her freind was trying to pick me up! It was like gah... Then kasie was cracking the shits at me over it and im like wtf. It's not like i'm even seeing kasie so why get pissed. And she was calling her freind every name under the sun.

Oh well that's their problem now.

I wish i could sing...

we performed 'worse' by The Screaming Drunks

And I did Khe Sahn and Mr Jones... so much fun.

Looking back to find the way never seemed to hard

I'm sick :(... stupid cold. Feel like crap. Need to sleep now. Probably shouldnt have had a few cans and played poker, need for speed and tried to get diablo LAN working until 3am.. but you know.

I've resorted to such optomistic and naturalistic medicines: vics vaporub.

Still undefeated in volleyball. Brilliant.

We were young. We were wrong.
We were fine, all along.


I like stuff... do you like stuff?

Last night was rach's 20th, it feels like forever since i last spoke to her. I really miss talking to her too. We can talk for hours about nothing... well if we're allowed to that is. I tried really hard to get along with trav. And for the most part i think it went well. I even bought him a drink.

We left fair early.. like 1.30... tried to leave at 1 but then amy picked up :P so we got stuck waiting for her.

Rach called me when she got home, after i got dropped off cos amy was driving us all. And after 5 mins i called her back because she has credit and would run out fast... I was trying to keep the conversation to 10 mins because my last phone bill was over $300 :( ffs... which i havent paid yet... but anyways after 15 mins had passed i was like look i better go i'll talk to ya later, and conveniently enough trav must have been walking down the hallway and rach was like shit i gotta go bye and hung up... makes ya feel really dodgy hey.... so anyways i checked the last call duration to make sure it wasnt too long... and that 15 minutes was actually 55... :-o

On thursday two guys tried to steal my car when i was only away from it for 5 mins... confused and scared the crap outta me at the time. It was like 1-2pm at carrum downs shopping centre and absolutely packed... nobody said a word to the guys. I thought at first i left teh doors open and they just were looking for stuff to loot... and once i made sure they had nothing on them i let them walk because there wasnt much i could do
but then i went back to the car and noticed the window was broken, and so was the ignition barrel for that matter.. only a matter of about a minute before they woulda had it started... i went after them in mums car, called the cops and gave them a description, but they got away. cops fingerprinted my car though.. $130 to replace the window. Think it'll be a little while before i replace the tint on it though... sigh... kinda broke now

What did you hope to learn about here?

yesterday we had a bbq at mine and i drank a little too much for a little bbq thing... and then decided to go to the pub after... and drank a little too much again... so combined i drank alot too much and today i havent been feeling the best.

I'm reading a book again today. John Grisham's The Last Juror. It's pretty good actually. I might have to start reading... especially while i have all this tiem on holidays...

There's this chick at work on the front end who comes and talks to me most times when she works at the same time as me.. and a couple of people have told me she likes me apparently... and the other night she is like its my bday in two tweeks.. i expect a bday message
and me being busy and not paying attention to whats going on says.. i dont have you number...

Well as you can gather now i do and she has mine lol... I didnt mean it i swear... But she is 17 and i go to uni with her brother so yeh... well 2 in two weeks i guess....

Hmm i have to go actually.. so i'll finish this later.. or tomorrow

[EDIT]

Ok back.
That chick i mentioned from work. Ash. She was messaging me last night when I went to the movies with meagan and was asking if i wanted to come to the movies with her and her freind... at the same time i was there with meagan... I think i'll try not to lead her on at all, because hell knows i'm good at that it seems. That is assuming she does like me. Which i'd assume so if she is msging me alot and asking me to the movies.

So anyways, as mentioned above. I was at the movies with meagan with meagan, well with meagan, sam and brenton. Whom are meagans freinds. Saw 007 in gold class... Gold class so isn't worth $30... but it was kinda cool. For anybody who hasnt been, you can order food and drink and they'll bring it out to ya at intervals during the movie and you have a little table to eat it on. The seats are big reclining arm chairs with buttons at the side to make it go up and down so you can decide exactly how reclined you wanna be... It's a wonder I didnt fall asleep.

We could be perfect strangers, won't you look in my eyes

I wish i was special. You're so fuckin' special

I don't know why i've started posting again heaps. I think it's more to pass time than anything. Also it's kinda cool to look back on next year and the year after and be like.. hah i remember that.

Last night myself and sean got a slab of grolsh... Now we dont have a slab of grolsh. Scott drank two of em though. So had 11 beers albeit they were only 250ml ones.

There's too much stuff i only want some people to read now... Dont want it totally public.. i should password protect my blog... until then i dont think i'll write what im thinking here

Beneath the milky twilight

Out on the moonlit floor...

Hmm I did promise an update on sunday or monday, although i'm sure nobody noticed it never happened. But here it is, better late than never.

So I did go to the movies with rachel on saturday... It was actually really cool, got along quite well. Then there's the awkward goodbye at the end. She followed me to my car basically when i had to leave cos she was hanging around frankston. I didn't know what to do, since it was like a date it's like obligatory to kiss at the end. But I am too scared for anything like that. And that would force an ultimatum upon me. Because once you kiss, it's kinda hard to go back to being just freinds unless you were already freinds to begin with. And then it's like your falling into possible dating and I dunno, I guess I'd just like to get to know a prospective girlfreind before the ultimatum.

And what reminded me to post this is that I went out with her last night. She took me to see the christmas lights about, I've never actually went around and looked at them. It was really nice. There is a house at the top of oliver's hill that let people walk into their garden and they have spent way too much time and effort putting tons of christmas lights around. Was cool that they let people come in and walk about looking at it all. After looking around we went down to seaford beach and ended up sitting at a bench at the end of the pier. Again it was really nice. But then when I got home I sorta hurriedly got out the car to avoid the awkward silence. And I realised I had so I messaged her once I was in bed just saying thanks for the night and sorry about the awkward silence (because we had spoke about it after last time)... But apparently it's "too weird" now...

I guess I'm still too me...

I think I'll give it a few days for the dust to settle before i post this post actually

That's just about as funky as you can be...

Well as you can see; I'm posting to a new blog. All comments, suggestions and (yes even) critisism is welcome... Except for from peg, cos she has no taste or understanding of the concept of lameness...

Also i'm 100% that at least 1 of you will have major difficulties with it... Because the new blogger seems to be extremely difficult to work with... and slight changes to the template cause things to just around all over the place... So while it looks right on my screen, I'm sure on some peoples resolution or just pc the text will overlap the JD image and/or the links will go somewhere else... maybe the JD image will jump on the title and title will try to break dance... Yes.. It has taken far too long to make this crappy page.

haha fuck... because i've replaced the title with an image the title on the browser window is an image tag.... yippee... I'll fix that soon. Maybe.


So what's happened since I last updated? Well it's not 3.21am. Though it is my friday morning blues post. And yes I am indeed hungry... Where was I?

Hmm i said last week i'd try to stay freinds with kasie, well I haven't seen her since. And only exchanged a couple of short messages. Though I blame her not myself. She did want me to go to hers to watch a movie on monday night. But I couldnt be bothered because why should I go to hers, she always told me to come to hers rather than coming here. Screw that. So I said she can come here cos I planned on watching a movie anyways and she didnt message back. Then I messaged her drunk on wednesday night just asking if she made it to the pub cos she usually goes on a wed but was starting a new job that week so probably wouldnt be out late on wed night. But still havent heard anything since monday night movie invite.



As for not sure about wether I want a relationship or not... I think that's was my drunk side coming out more than anything... Does anybody else when their drunk think that they are just SOOOOO cool... then wake up and go man what happened?? Oh yeh, I was pretty full of myself... Can be sometimes... Stupid alcohol.

The biggest thing that got me was that there is this chick from a little while back I'm sure she got mentioned on my blog somewhere but i couldnt figure out where. That i liked. You know how you see somebody and your like man, i wanna go up to her and talk to her but she is just gonna look at me and go wtf... Well a few weeks ago I did because i noticed she knew dave (vinnies/peg dave) and there was a little flirting here and there, you know me... But anyways last week when she left she insisted on giving me her number... saying something like "well are you ever gonna ask me for my number"... I think that was the highlight of this month lol. So I ended up meeting her at the beach the next day (got sunburnt) and exchanged far too many messages over the past week... especially over friday and saturday though.

She's really nice. I am so bad at this though... I mean how do you get somebody to like you... It's one thing to get people to like you when they only meet you breifly, but when you go somewhere like lunch and the movies (tomorrow) what do you do? I understand the act like yourself thing... But it's hard to act normal when you have to figure out things to say... So anyways, i'm sure you'll get an update on sunday or monday on that one.

Hmm still following last week comes to the entertainment section, which reminds me of another amusing anecdote, my right foot has mostly recovered from my toenail incident. However I tried my luck at skateboarding on tuesday... Seems I was unlucky. Twisted my ankle slightly, which has since recovered. But since I was stupid enough to try skateboarding in thongs i managed to graze a fair bit of skin off of my foot. That hasn't recovered and hurts like hell. Also, I wish i had pizza.


Uni results were released yesterday (or wed night via sms). And much to my surprise I passed astro... The subject I was sure I failed. Didn't waste any effort on the subject either.. got exactly a pass 50% on the dot... Kinda scary hey. Other marks were on the order of what i expected... maybe a smidgen higher considering how little effort I put in. Both physics' were distinctions but only just... 71 and 72 (70-80 is a distinction) Hopefully now that i've gotten the bad semester out of my system next semester will be a whole lot better... Thats all maths too. So I think it'll be less work :) maths dont do tons of assignments... And don't have to worry about all those freaking lab reports! BOOYA!!

I think i'll leave this post (which was going to be a short one) as is and go shower.

New Blog

This is Just a filler post so i can mess around with the template about it


The modern blog is a form of Citizen Media which evolved from the online diary, where people would keep a running account of their personal lives. Most such writers called themselves diarists, journalists, or journalers. A few called themselves escribitionists. The Open Pages webring included members of the online-journal community. Justin Hall, who began eleven years of personal blogging in 1994 while a student at Swarthmore College, is generally recognized as one of the earliest bloggers.[2]
Other forms of journals kept online also existed. A notable example was game programmer John Carmack's widely read journal, published via the finger protocol. Websites, including both corporate sites and personal homepages, had and still often have "What's New" or "News" sections, often on the index page and sorted by date. One example of a news based "weblog" is the "Drudge Report" founded by the self styled maverick reporter Matt Drudge, though apparently Drudge dislikes this classification. Another is the Institute for Public Accuracy which began posting news releases featuring several news-pegged one-paragraph quotes several time a week beginning in 1998. One noteworthy early precursor to a blog was the tongue-in-cheek personal website that was frequently updated by Usenet legend Kibo.
Early weblogs were simply manually updated components of common websites. However, the evolution of tools to facilitate the production and maintenance of web articles posted in said chronological fashion made the publishing process feasible to a much larger, less technical, population. Ultimately, this resulted in the distinct class of online publishing that produces blogs we recognize today. For instance, the use of some sort of browser-based software is now a typical aspect of "blogging". Blogs can be hosted by dedicated blog hosting services, or they can be run using blog software, such as WordPress, blogger or LiveJournal, or on regular web hosting services, such as DreamHost.
The term "weblog" was coined by Jorn Barger on 17 December 1997. The short form, "blog," was coined by Peter Merholz, who jokingly broke the word weblog into the phrase we blog in the sidebar of his blog Peterme.com in April or May of 1999.[3][4][5] This was quickly adopted as both a noun and verb ("to blog," meaning "to edit one's weblog or to post to one's weblog").
