Had usual pogramming lecture, then 3 hourtutorial on games engines, then the 4 hour meeting of the otaku society.

We continued watching Fate/Zero, Baccano, Penguindrum and God's Memo Pad.
I'm enjoying Fate/Zero and Penguindrum, but already own Baccano, and feel that Memo Pad both is probably just not for me and something lost in translation.

I've also been looking at my ebay bid, which I actually won a few minutes ago. I expected sniping programs since I was at war with a guy who kept setting his maximum higher, meaning even after adding the neccesary amount to beat him, his program already beat out my. I got Wind waker, since my brother owned it, not me, for £18. There was a whole page of them, and that one had zero bids when I started,meaning I woul've only hd to pay £1, if that one opponent hadn't shown up.

Also, I have slight pressure in my head and am worried about my health, since it's fresher's flu time, I became somewhat of a hyperchopndriac because of a previous ilness and am afraid of vomiting, and Im worried about the chances of food poisoning when making food for myself.

I asked a girl out, turns out she had a boyfriend.

Had to fight the boyfriend. I won, but I'm not proud of myself :\
In a similar vein, I had to break off a somewhat short lived relationship because it turns out she's a masochist, into S&M.

So...

Yeah.

We're still as friendly as ever, so that's good.

... I didn't need to know that, but now that I'm here, how did you find out. She flat out tell you or was it an 'in the act' sort of thing?

Watched Moon. It was pretty good.
Listened to Diamond Dogs. It was pretty good.
Exchanged nudes with the girlfriend. It was pretty good.
Watched a lecture about shemale porn and Edward Cullen. It was pretty good.
Opened a unrecieved birthday present for someone i'm no longer in contact with that had been lying on my top shelf for a good few months. It was a set of Lego colouring pens. It was very good.

I am weak and feeble so I have been in bed for the last 36 hours without food. I'm up now.
Why so weak? Maybe you should eat more.

Also, what I've been doing for the last 24 hours... Not much, I've eaten, meditated for awhile, read and responded to various threads here, slept, rinse and repeat, might practise with my bass guitar in a bit, or take a nap, or go for a walk, or something.
I was born weak and feeble. I get these spells were I don't have any energy or much of an appetite. I also seem to have a sore and achy body. On a plus side, when I go through these spells I sleep pretty much the whole time and usually I have problems falling asleep, so that is nice.

I blame my father.

I had class, finished next week's class presentation during the break between classes. Found out that my presentation partner is a huge 90s nerd. This pleases me. Finished classes for the day, went home.
Had a BLT for dinner, painted up some of my Khorne-marked Chaos Marines so I can possibly use them later this week. Listening to Spoony's Counter-Monkey series while doing so. Needs detailing though, that's my plan for tonight.

Today I went to class, bus was packed full of elementary schools kids. This was not as annoying as I thought it might be, on the whole they were fairly well behaved. <-- wat. Now I'm in class (for which I did not do the readings for) and waiting for the time to go home so I can relax for the rest of the evening.

Exciting times. -.-

Well I had to go to an Apple store today because my rabbit nibbled through the charger cable for my iPhone (which I haven't even had for three full days yet) and I needed a new one, especially considering how fast Smartphones drink their juice. This was also the first time I've ever actually been inside an Apple store, and let me tell you, the place was fucking huge. It always looks like they're having some kind of expo in there and at least twelve employees were running around, all of them busy with customers. It's like a whole other world. But anyway, I couldn't find the cable I needed because apparently the one compatible with the iPhone 5 is some special new shit and they've been short on stock. I asked one of the employees if they had any and he went in the back to check. When he came out, he was holding one out of the package in his hand; it just had a little plastic thing around it that keeps the cable wound neatly together. He hands it to me and hurriedly explains that the computer says they have four of the cables in stock, but he couldn't find any so I can take that one.

I didn't understand. He walked away and I stood there for like a minute trying to figure out why he'd handed the USB cable to me. Eventually he walked by me again and I must've looked totally confused, so he said "You can have that." It was finally starting to click, so I stuck it in my pocket and casually walked out of the store, half expecting someone to pounce on me and accuse me of stealing. I distinctly remember thinking, "Well then I'd better get out of here before he changes his mind."

I got something for free. FREE. Freeeeeeee. I'd almost forgotten the meaning of the word. I never would have thought that I'd get something for free from a retailer, no strings attached, much less from APPLE. Golly gee. I was still in shock for a good couple hours afterwards.

I might be losing my job for calling in sick.

Granted, I work at a place where I apparently need a doctor's note to call in sick, so I will gladly accept no longer working there.

That's too bad :(. At least you get to sleep a bit, I know what it's like to have a hard time sleeping, insomnia is a *****.
At least you have all of us wierdos to talk to here! :D That's always a good thing, got us an interesting bunch on the escapist.

General discussion as the relationship was advancing to the stage of sex, pretty much.

I thought it was a little playfulness at first, I mean I have no problem with that sorta thing, but it turns out that it's like... her big thing. Freaked me out a little.

Then I got a text in the middle of the night referencing a Fifty Shades scenario, and I was like:

I went and had academic advising for my next semester as well as getting an idea of where I should go for college next, then I started building a Gundam model I bought at New York Comic Con, then played Romance of the Three Kingdoms 11 and Borderlands 2 and went to sleep.

Well I've been feeling a little ill over the past few days and today it developed into a full blown cold. Spent most of the day in bed trying to keep warm and just generally feel awful. On the plus side I won't be going into work this evening.

I'm a bit banged up on the knee and I need a nap. What, oh, you said NEW?

Nope. Business as usual in that case.

I played Team Fortress 2 for the first time since...2009? I've been foolish for waiting so long. I've been playing for HOURS because I had no work today and MvM is now my favorite horde mode on anything. It's now 2:30 AM and I have to get up at 8. So good night to you all, and I know what I'm looking forward to doing all day at work tomorrow (today) : )

Over the last 24 hours and indeed the last WEEK I have been packing, packing and packing in preparation to move out of my parent's home and into my own. It'd be more exciting if there wasn't so much to doooo!

Finished a 3D piece of 3 sexy chicks, a warrior and 2 Elves reading from the magic "Eroticum Incantamenta". A book on erotic spells considered so filthy and indecent, younger wizards are not allowed to own a copy.

I also spent the last 5 hours evaluating the quality of the new coffee pot I bought. Will it keep the coffee warm?
Such suspense! Don't leave us hangin' man! Does it keep the coffee warm or not?!

i woke up, mowed a bunch of lawns(i work in grounds maintenance), then got home and had a shower.

After that i packed some stuff to stay at dads for the weekend, got to dads and have since been moping about on the interwebs and listening to machinae supremacy's latest album.

i'm hoping to work on painting some of my chaos marines soon but at the moment i'm kind of out of energy.

And now i must be off to help with dinner.

That's about all. Excitement and wonders abound!

Working, walking the dog, playing Hearts of Iron 2 again because my multibilliondollar supercomputer has frameratedrops in anything in a 3d engine. Yay.
