It turns out my car's coolant leak has not actually been fixed after all. so the problem evidently wasn't with the clapm that the mechanics fixed for me - or, it was only part of the problem. I managed about six days before the light came on, so I've topped up with water and am now waiting on Dad's verdict as to what to do with the car. And ( Read more... )

So, I just read in a news report that some moron proposed the government stop funding regional universities and make all the poor rural kids go study in the cities if they want any chance of having a tertiary education.

W.T.F?

( Herein lies ranting about stupid people, and much 'pity the rural people' type of sentiment )

Title is apropos of nothing; I just have Meatloaf on repeat in my head. Anyway, this is going to be a slightly messy entry, I feel, so I'll sum it all up for you in advance: real life happened, and I committed fanfic.

( RL goings-on, a.k.a the boring stuff )

...I just got a reminder for my own birthday. What, you think I'd forget something like that, lj? I know I have to work and all, but I'm not that scatter-brained yet. Sheesh.

( This entire entry is basically just boring blabber about my life. Feel free to skip it as you please! )

My life is boring and I am suffering writer's block. Thus this entry is about boring stuff in my life, like watching my brother perform at his first non-school concert (he is a bassist, and apparently pretty good according to people who know about stuff like that). I was so proud of him and recorded the whole forty minutes of their performance on ( Read more... )

Mental Laxatives.

( ...and other useless, unimportant stuff. But mostly mental laxatives. And Commonwealth games, wut? )

So, today was the last day of classes for the year. Bar the two exams I have in one and a half weeks, I've officially survived my first year of university! And my history tutor and philosophy lecturer are officially the best people ever - history tutor because he went out and bought goon and juice, and chips and marshmellows, for our last tute; ( Read more... )

So I figure I'm kind of due for another boring life update. Except NOTHING HAS HAPPENED since the last one, so this is kind of pointless. ( In which I am not really a terrorist (which makes library visits awkward) and I have several dilemmas (dilemmae? What's the correct plural form?) related to musiic. Oh, and there are pretty (old) photos! )

On that note, I gave blood yesterday. It was an interesting experience. I would definitely go and do it again, because I had warm fuzzy 'love everyone in the whole wide world' vibes during the whole thing. And also I'm lucky in not having any major health problems that would prevent me from doing it. I just have to be careful, because my weight was ( Read more... )

Because I got bored and made icons yesterday. So  figured I'd post them up here, since I won't use all of them. Be aware the screencaps came from http://www.seibertron.com/, and any manipulation that occured afterwards is mine. As such, I'm not including the bases, because you can find them all through the provided link. Instead, you just get my ( Read more... )
