Objection

It turns out that playing Ace Attorney in French isn't nearly as easy as I thought it'd be...darn.
It also doesn't help that half the characters' names have been changed (what's up with that? I liked Larry Butz being Larry Butz; not Paul Defes or whatever French name he's been given =__=) and now they scream "Ob-ject-sionne!" instead of "OB-JECT-SHEN!" Mind you, it's still pretty fun ;)

Don't even bother reading.

And now I'm wondering what kind of self obsessed narcissist has the urge to always read so much about herself... Evidently a book is not enough, huh, Alice? Maybe an entire library would do.... -____-

Darn you, technology

Just ignore the music player. I have failed to make it work, but I'm going to destroy it later because I'm currently working on a maths pre test. So just to let you know, you've not gone deaf, and it's not your computer - it's mine -____-

Aquium and Dettol

Those Aquium and Dettol hand sanitizers have got to be one of those backfiring inventions
Sure, they're a handy alternative to washing your hands when you're out at a picnic, and it can't hurt carrying it around in your bag (unless it spills everywhere- and Emily D is right: the stuff STINKS), but still, you have to consider that the main reason these no water needed handwashes are used, is to disinfect kid's hands right before they eat.

And any kid (or anyone, for that matter) who has ever eaten anything right after rinsing their hands in the stuff, will know that their food always tastes disgusting. In case you haven't already figured it out, it's when you accidentally touch your fingers to your lips when you're taking a bite, and then you can taste the really horrible soapy disinfectant taste. And then you get the disinfectant smeared over your mouth, so if you lick your lips, you can taste the strong soapy taste and it's horrible! And then once it's on your tongue the yuck taste can go over the inside of your mouth: your teeth, inside of cheeks....until your perfectly edible club sandwhich or Happy Meal starts to taste like a ghastly combination of chemical antibacterial agents and chicken nuggets (or whatever it is you're eating - either way, you can kiss it goodbye because food never tastes the same once you've got aquium/dettol on your hands to begin with).

My advice to you? Unless you're trekking through some deserted uninhabitated desert with no access to running water, then get off your lazy bum and just use the tap! Walking twenty metres to the tap won't kill you, and believe me, your lunch will taste a lot better! ^_^




That is all.

Oh, and by the way, does anyone know how to put music players onto blogspot? There are websites saying exactly how to do that, but I think I've signed up for 5 of them, none of which have worked. So somebody with a blog with music, please let me know how you did it.

The mysterious music pause

Today my mum was screaming in the car at my brother, and then she shouted "STOP" because he must have been doing something stupid.
Owl City's cd was playing, and just after she shouted 'stop' it glitched, and paused for a few seconds before playing again. nobody touched the controls, the cd has never had any disk problems before, and it was fine when i played the same track again.

she was quite happy with herself, and said that even Owl City was scared of her.
Umm....which was strange.
But I find this quite amusing (and somewhat "mysterious" eh heh heh

Nasty Business

Today, during maths, Alice kicked my seat. I turned around and she was rolling her eyes, head and flapping her arms around uselessly. And it wasn't obvious at all. Wonderful spy skills, she should like totally be a secret agent. It's funny because I mentioned almost the exact same thing in Anayalight (ah, damn Twilight.... -____- ) without seeing today's interesting display of weirdness.

NINJA!

Today "theinvisible Ninjaman" added me on facebook. No idea who it is, but it made me laugh. Ha. Ha. ha.

On a lighter note.

RIP Hypo!

After getting back from our grandpa's today, Daniel noticed that Hypo! had disappeared from his tank... Mum was quick to suspect Leo, but I knew our cat just didn't have the heart (or physical skills needed) to kill a fighting fish. Also, he'd have to be a genius to get onto the coffee side table, take off the lid, eat the fish and replace the lid without leaving a single bit of fur or drop of water.
I had a sick feeling that maybe Hypo! had jumped out of the small gap out the back of the tank, and fallen down the back of the table. As I moved his tank...there was Hypo!...right underneath it. Not moving and surrounded by wet, black sludge. And then he twitched. We put him back into the water and fed him. He was pretty weak. Apparently Siamese Fighting Fish have an organ that allows them to breathe atmospheric air, but we didn't know how long Hypo! had been out. It could've been anywhere from the time we left the house to go to school.
Hypo! died at approximately 8.30pm, 8th February 2010.

I never knew Siamese fighting fish jumped. I thought it was just Hypo! being...well, hypo. For all of you who own Betta fish, they do jump, and you should make sure they can't jump out of their tanks so this doesn't happen again.

RIP Hypo!
I believe there is a reason for all things happening, and maybe God let this little fish die to teach us a lesson, to be more careful of looking after them in the future, or perhaps something else I haven't figured out yet. Hypo!'s death is small and insignificant to you, but remember that cute, tiny, funny, blue, hyper fish for a moment, and be nice to my brother if you see him, because he's kind of upset.

I apologize for this depressing post, but I thought it might be a bit helpful, and to remind all SFF owners to keep their tanks safe! I'm feeling a little sad right now, too... listening to Owl City. Like always, he makes me feel just that little bit happier and carefree.

Siamese Fighting Fish

Well well well. Our house now has three new pets... little sqiggley things in tanks that smell like shrimp and that dried fish stick stuff some people (by which I mean, people excluding me) eat at Chinese New Year.

So yep, last Wednesday we went out to City Farmers and bought 5 Betta Fish...or something or other can't really remember scientific name.
1 for Emily
1 for Daniel
1 for Hannah (happy birthday)
1 for Cindy (happy birthday)
and 1 for me!


And they were so named:
Nugget
Hypo!
Robby Patty
Princess Sparkles
and Phoenix

In case you were wondering:
Yes, Nugget is the biggest, slightly round and eats excessively.
Yes, Hypo! is hypo a lot of the time, and Hypo! is spelt with an exclamation mark.
Yes, Robby Patty was named after Robert Pattinson : for one vampire obsessed friend
Yes, Princess Sparkles is a male... pink, and kind of sparkly (renamed Prince Sparkles)
and Nick. Well...yes, it is a bit weird naming a fish after a bird, but Nick was named after Ashleigh's deceased fish Phoenix (umm. the first, I guess)

So yup, they're very cute ^__^

Click go the Scissors

I have a few things to say today. The first being that today is the last day of the sweet, sweet summer holidays! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooOOOOOO. I know I shouldn't be complaining, especially since we're going back to school pretty much 3 days after most of the schoolkids in WA, but I'm not particularly looking forward to resuming study mode again.

Yesterday, I got a haircut.
My sister reckons I look like a Kimmi Doll.

My brother says I look like Willy Wonka.



That's flattering :/

&& there's a special google today! Apparently it's Norman Rockwell's birthday. Who is that? I have no idea. Perhaps you'd best use google to find out.

February First

F irst day of Feb. Oh joy...it names means that we are pretty much 8 (and a half) % of the way through the year already! (Of course I used a calculator) Wowowowee it does go fast, doesn't it?
E veryone's looking forward to Valentines day (unless you're single or you've just been heartlessly dumped and the mention of Feb14 makes you donwright depressed) where you get showered with love, flowers, and enough chocolates to make you turn into a fat saggy bundle of flesh && CHINESE NEW YEAR (unless you're not Chinese)-the opportunity to become $rich$ and to eat yummy food & watch lion/dragon dances... woo.
B ack to school! (Daaaaaaaamnit -______-) It's that time of the year when we return to that ill fated place to be educated....for the better or worse, we all have to go. Except for those rare and lucky homeschoolies >.<>
R emember it's the last month of summer until December, so enjoy this beautifully blistering, boiling heat and dance around in the sunshine and get a tan while you can! But of course, I'm predicting that we're going to have a sunny March... anyways, don't forget to wear sunscreen and a hat! (I got burnt the other day on the Leeuwin... ouch >.< )
U nleash your inner awesomeness! Of course, there's no reason why you shouldn't do it any other month...but I'm really not the best poet and 'u' is not my favourite letter.
A nd it's a short month too (28 days this year) so make the most of it! And happy birthday to all whose birthdays are in February (there seem to be a lot of you too) in advance, in case I forget later on: Camille, Cindy, Emily, Hannah, Emily and Rin! If I missed yours, don't hate on me. Just let me know and I'll stick it in somewhere...
R elish (is that even a word? I think I meant 'cherish' but whatever...) the memories! You know, we'll never have another February 2010 every again after this, unless the entire planet reincarnates. (And let's face it, that's definitely not going to be happening.) So enjoy this February, and get something special out of it...... like a new friend, or un-enemize yourself with someone. I dunno, just do something good for yourself and the world (:
Y ou now need to get off your ugly backside, and get away from your computer and go do something!!!! Like exercise, or go read a book, or do some work, or go do the community a service like cleaning up all the rubbish because you should be making this FEBRUARY a better place for everyone to be. So there... you have your orders. GO LITTLE PEOPLE, GO!
