Lurk Scheme Plot Mutter
Still lurking around! and finally dragging myself to blog. You know the irony doesnt escape me that as soon as i started writing a post about why I blog and why I will Continue to blog, started Blogging less and less.
Things that annoy me.
- People (a common complaint)
- People who spoil Harry Potter
- People who say Harry Potter is Evil. (thats a whole post in itself)
- Cars that force me to spend $850 in two weeks.
- Uni Fees (I'd be much happier paying them if i knew that massive amounts of it wasnt going to fund everyones election campaigns)
- People who are Anti-VSU and want to shove that down my throat
- Me, and my puny human emotions
- Emo. And me accidentally slipping into emo mode sometimes! argh. the devil the devil!
- People who will dismiss my opinion, or undervalue me because I have a differing opinion to them (church problem related)
- Working way too much as well as starting back at Uni and upping my Church Commitments
- Not getting much time to practice Piano (exam in September), Play WoW or Just Relax.
- Girls. (Again.. nothing new here)
- Not having enough time to hang with friends. although spending much time with church friends as a result of more commitments.
- "Welcome to my life" By Simple Plan. Dammit, everyone goes through crap in their lives. stop acting as if you're the only ones who do and that 'nobody understands" in short... Cheer up emo kid.
I change the radio whenever i hear this song.
Other than these things, Life is fine but hectic at the moment! And Im learning the Trombone! Huzzah! :D
Will Post Again Soon :)

Another post
SO its friday night here at party central!
Thats what I'd be saying if there was anything remotely like a party happening
But, alas, twas not to be! I am stuck at home here with Brother while parents are away on their anniversary!
This week was a good week methinks. much stuff done and sorted, but still more stuff to do. First Sunday School Lesson of the Term coming up this weekend, and a Youth calender to make pretty in powerpoint, as well as several other things that require...burning. Fire is good. obey the fire.
Anyhoo. made curry for our Thursday fun night group last night, and it seemed to go down well! Huzzah! you know what they say, a man who can cook... hey hey. Not that Im going out to impress the females or anything! no!
Not looking forward to monday where I have to pay off 350 excess and book in another service where I will need to get new tires as well :P argh. so much for any travel plans in the near future! Lucky it's tax time! which reminds me i need to get my group certificates!
Saw Clayton and Matt for the first time in ages the other night! was good! hopefully hang out with those guys again next week when we've planned to do something together.
Fantastic four.. hmm.. well, It was an OK movie i guess, but to me as a comic fanboy, I hated Doom. He was... so not what he should be. The real doom is cool, calculating, an evil genius who spends ages working together all the threads of a complex masterplan and then strikes! he should also have an accent, and no powers and be based from latveria! Anyway...
We dont talk about the Origin. Down a dark path it led us on Wednesday night! :P
Anyhoo, thats all im saying for the moment! ;)

Sitting here waiting for the bread to roll in
So here I am, waiting for Dad to get back from the store so I can make myself a Tuna/Greek Yoghurt sandwich for lunch. mm.. nothing doesnt go well with Greek Yoghurt.
hmm.. possibly donuts might not go that well... depends what kind of mood you're in
So anyway, Im wasting time by blogging! (yay! everything back to normal! Or IS it?)
Our family all pitched in Yesterday and bought an exercise machine! w00t! so many exercises I can do all in the comfort and privacy of my own home now! Spent 1.5 hours on it this morning! wonderful (yet painful) stuff!
It's not one with weights, instead it uses long Rods that bend. each rod has a different resistance. the littlest are 2x10lb then 2x25lb then 2x50lb. you can use combos of all of them, and there are more holes for additional rods when you become super-buff!
But yeh! thats news, so hopefully I'll be spending time on that each day preparing myself for...something... just generally trying to get some muscle!
Hmm... no bread yet... what else to say. Oh yes! Fantastic Four Movie coming out on Thursday! looking forward to that, hopefully its another success, but I have heard weird thigns about the plot :P oh well! (Fantastic Four for those who are uncultured, is a comic put out by Marvel) and even you male (and lesbian) non comic readers can appreciate Jessica Alba as the invisible woman! :D
And let me clarify this for all those gossip hounds who read this! (hey Matt and assorted others ^_^) In regards to my love life, I am not really 'Over' Relationships per se, but I am not actively looking. But if something should come along.. who knows :)
SO I'm just going to crap on for a bit now, because the bread still hasnt arrived and I'm really hungry.. so... yeh! how are you? Im fine. Very lazy days atm. both yesterday and today, woke up after 11am :) oh the crazy hedonism of holidays! (although I did go to sleep after 3 on both occasions! Go World of Warcraft!)
Oooh! i hear the bread rolling in!
w00t! lunchtime for Sam!

Getting Back into It Dammit!
Ok, no more procrastination! this thing wont post itself! (Procrastinatign about procrastinating? thats a new high! ^_^)
For my own records and for those who have been wondering about those photos, here is what I've been doing since oh, a month or so ago! (probably more than that!)
And since i've realised I can't really remember in any detail I'll just do a little point form thing!
1 - May 19th - Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. We (Friends from our Church group and I) went to the midnight Premiere of the movie in the city, and as our tradition dictated we dressed up as characters from the movie. I was Darth Vader! that costume was involved let me tell you! :P anyhoo, Movie? I loved it, a great improvement on I and II, Really emotional for a sci-fi movie. I like how it wrapped up very nicely. although there was a cringeworthy moment - Darth Vader shouting 'NOOOOOO" at the end :P ah well!
Ended up getting put in the Sunday paper as a picture, and having a recorded conversation with my mate Greg about going clubbing dressed up like that! (He was dressed up as Anakin)
As a side note too, I had a percussion exam at 8am the next morning, so I went along in full Darth Vader costume ^_^. Had at least ten people at uni wanting to take their photo with me heh.
2 - June 14th - Big jump there, and many things did happen inbetween, but i cant remember them in any real detail. June 14th was the date of my first exam, and also of my 21st Birthday! ^_^ woohoo! Got a digital camera from parents, which explains where the photos down below came from! but since my Birthday came in the middle of exam week, there was no time to celebrate it! but on the Thursday night of that week we had a combined party for two of my church friends, Manoli and Dan (pictured below also) and Me. We all have our birthday in the same week :) I got the soundtrack for the Episode III ^_^ mucho cool! as well as a Darthvader electric spin pop, a cool Yoda watch and a Peter Coombe DVD :) ah...childhood memories!
3 - June 19th-24th - CLW (Christian Life Week) Numinbah!
Another reason I had no time to celebrate was this huge camp! it was about 40-50 kids and 14 leaders in the Numinbah Valley near the NSW Border. Beautiful 'hows the serenity' place. Most of the photos below come from there! Our theme was 'Walk the Talk' about being Christians in our daily lives. The camp was cool. I could go on about it for a while, but you know... I probably will later!
The photos featuring the short shorts and bondsies are from our Olympics Theme night. Greg, Josh (a great bloke and good mate who I only met last year on CLW) and I decided to come as Ping Pong Players and thus... well.. anyhoo.
For the olympics night we were based in our camp small groups and had to come up with a country name and anthem and flag etc. The country of my small group was ZOLTANIA - Ruled by the benevolent dictator, ZOLTAN! (zoltan - makes 'Z' with hands). So that kinda explains the odd pose below!
CLW was great not only for the spiritual experience given to the kids, but to me. i felt that I have grown spiritually as a result of that camp :) Especially because of an incident during a game :P which i shall talk about later *shudder*
Only bad thing that happened on camp (which i honestly think i can directly attribute to the devil... more on that later). Is that while we were away at a day trip to Hinze dam, A freakishly strong wind blew up at the camp (so im told) and caught hold of a Tarpaulin (sic) in a trailer about 6 meters away from my car. The wind was so strong that it used the Tarp as a sail, and blew this trailer (which was quite large) into the side of my car, causing 1300 dollars worth of damage.
Luckily I had insurance. But unluckily, since there was no Third Party at fault I now have to pay the $350 excess, and Lose a rating. that sucks. but oh well. I laugh at the devil. Nice try foo!
SO that brings us basically up to now when I have three glorious weeks of holidays left! I will probably write more later because long posts are so hard to read sometimes!
Lets just put this down for the record before I go - I hate having good dreams. I would rather have nightmares, because you wake up saying 'Holy krap, wow! lucky that was only a dream!" rather than waking up and feeling depressed saying "I wish that was real". Especially when it involves a female! (not in that way you sus people!) :P dreams like that suck!
