Considering that I do not have a serious hobby and I do not spend large amounts of time getting drunk and partying and that I do relatively little work to obtain my degree, I have rather a lot of time on my hands. This time lets me think, and I think a lot about life, and what it means. Maybe I enjoyed Philosophy too much at school, but I find the topic of life and what it entails to be interesting, and the topic of who I am is just as interesting. So much so, that I have been exploring who I am of late, and finding out new things along the way. Last night, I believe I found certain solutions to many problems that I have, and while not a complete be all and end all to my issues, could be what I have been looking for for the past few weeks.
More on that when I learn more about it.
You know what blogs are for? It's the whole sharing of links, sharing of information, stuff like that. I have been reading about how sharing of links has lead to con-men and dishonest people have been brought to social justice by their technical ineptitude, and it's quite beautiful. I like to think that if I were to ever stoop to levels of deceit and dishonesty, I'd be able to cover some tracks and not give the person I was ripping off ample ammunition to take me down.
Stolen T-Mobile Sidekick
A very classy and charming young lady comes into possession of a lost phone and struggles in choosing the right thing to do.
eBay's Broken Laptop
An honourable and decent gentleman sells his laptop on eBay, and of no fault of his own he forgot that the laptop did not work and forgot to clear the hard drive.
This is hardly a torrent of visitors, but it gets its share of regulars every so often, and I hope that they amuse themselves with these websites that thrive on people's sense of justice. They kinda make you feel angry and feel good at the same time, and some people have equated it to an internet mob lynching, with no real death or anything like that.
Kiana moved in to my house two days a go. She has a lot of stuff, and I hurt my back with it, but it's good to have her close. I'm looking forward to next year when everyone is back and a routine begins again. Though I will miss Housei when he's gone.
Speaking of which... I have to say hello to Natasha. She keeps complaining that I'm missing her out of my blog. Well, I care about you darling, so don't you worry. I'll mention you in the next post or something.
Oh, oh... I do get to update you on Carlos and Stacey and Mandy's house situation. I saw Carlos and Mandy at Southlands yesterday, and they informed me that they are no longer living in Kingston, they are now living across the road from me. I have to say, this is excellent news. I was worried for a bit, but this makes things a lot easier. It's only a shame that Sam is now missing out. Hopefully it all won't be too disruptive. I should find out what's going on though.
I don't know what's happening. Things haven't been this vague since... like... ages ago.
The other day, Kaori gave me a big bag of goodies with presents for everyone inside shipped directly from Katou. I got a Gundam model! Which, although I haven't built any models in many years, not since I was in Canada, I am excited to have. It should be fun. I also got this little snack called Nerunerunerune, and I swiped the Ramune flavoured one. You mix this dust with water and stir then dip in candies, it's all so sugary and delicious. I am very grateful to Katou and Kaori for those wonderful gifts.
Tonight I met with Ellie for the first time in over a year. We keep bumping into each other but we never get to talk, and it's so tragic. But we went for a meal and we ate sushi (my first sushi in over 6 months) and had a long decent chat about what has happened to us in the past year. It seems the same thing happens to many people when it comes to housemates, and she is also moving out of her house to go to new accommodation. Not on campus though (shock). It was good to learn the fate of my last years flat mates, and to know what has been going on around Whitelands.
Half Life 2: Episode 1 was released. I love everything Half Life. I played and completed all the add on packs for Half Life, and now I am seeing these new expansions for HL2. I'm playing it on the Normal mode as well. I almost always play on easy, but this time I'm going the harder way. Anyway, I've started and I'm finding it pretty frightening. Long dark corridors with an ever fading flashlight and short fused flares, it's tense. I don't pay for software often, but I find all my purchases to Valve have been worthwhile. And for $18 or something, which is about £10, I'm having quite a bit of fun. I daren't look at a walkthrough, but I'm so scared of the endless bug attacks...
Zombines... get it?
Anyway, I think I'm overwhelming people with how often this is updated now. Don't let your hats spin too much.
