9:49pm: But nothing much went down, so that's OK, plus I had to go to bed early so I could wake up and see the Physio, my neck is much better. :O) But I'm not sure if I should have said something because some of the things he did to my back muscles were fucking painful, I mean, like teeth-grittingly painful, should I have spoken up re: that? Things seem to feel much better now, though, although I have to go to one more appointment. LOL, those Physios, but it only costs $22 a visit and I can swing it, but I will mention about the tender joints and whatnot. I don't want to hurt myself!
Then, I came back home, got distracted and thus ended up late to the Pyschiatrist. I ran into Mum on the bus! Cool :O) Although she was most pissed off that I hadn't taken the car, it was Walk to Work Day today, and we weren't that late. But wouldn't you know it, he was on time this time...doctor's are never on time unless your late. Anywho, we discussed this issues re: lack of job and my inability it appears to tell whether I'm doing a good job or not. But he didn't have much advice, I suppose in order to find out why Outsource Australia I'd have to call the bastards and ask. But it's a bit late to do that. However, I finally got around to calling up one of those special services job find people, so hopefully I'll have more luck with them. Although, I don't like to leave Job Find 'cause Larrie's such a nice guy. Oh well, what can you do?
Alas, I'm very odd, the pyschiatrist mentioned that sometimes those special services job find people can do more harm than good and as an example he told me that a guy with a degree and an interest in computers or something was sent out to the airport to count markers and I was all "The AIRPORT?! Coool!" Heh...well, I do have my fingers crossed for the Boeing job...wouldn't that be cool...?
3X Thursday
Flavorites
1. What's your favorite 'chill' (mellow, relaxing, etc) activity? Why?
Hnmm, surfing the net, or maybe playing The Sims 2, aaah good times!
2. When you go out, where do you like to go? What do you like to do?
To libraries and bookstores, mostly, or to friends houses (ah crap, I keep forgetting to call my friend, I absolutely, postively have to do that tomorrow! Uni Holidays will soon be over, I'm sure!) Anyway, I like reading and buy books, of course and hanging with the friends.
3. What's your favorite comfort food? Why? Do you keep some on hand for emergencies?
Chocolate and Kraft Cheese Wedges. As to why, I think I've got some sort addiction to them, because they always cheer me up. :O) And I keep them on hand for emergencies to be sure!
Bonus Question for Comments: How's life? Is it treating you well right now?
I'm unemployed I'm afraid, so I'm pretty screwed... :O(, but I'm pretty happy (much to Mum's surprise as she mentioned today at the pyschiatrist), I really must see my friends more, though, because I'm a bit of hermit. I also have to clean this room...
Booking Through Thursday
Bookends
1. Do you own any bookends? If so, how many sets? If not, do you need or want any?
Nope, except the ones I made in Design and Technology in Year Eight, they were Angelica Pickles bookends, with Angelica cutouts made of very thin wood. I spend ages designing and making them, and they were very fragile and the asshole of the teacher BROKE both the Angelicas necks!! Even though I warned him not to be careful with them, I just about punched him in the face for that!
2. Which are your favorites? How long have you had them?
I glued the heads back on the Angelicas and kept them for some years and I thought they were great! :O) The finally gave up the ghost...although I still have the actually bookend part.
Thursday Threesome
::Clean Air Act::
Onesome: Clean-- as a whistle? Can you whistle? When did you learn? ...and with pursed lips or with that finger thing?
Sort of, I usesd to be unable to do it all and now I can sort of...but not for very long and not very loudly. I can't do the finger thing at all, I've got no idea how people do that!
Twosome: Air-- quality: an issue where you live or not? ...enough to move?
No, it's looking all right out there for the most part, although London and Mexico City sound pretty scary, both cities have had fog that's SO bad it's actually KILLED people! Yikes!
Threesome: Act-- Hey, do you 'act your age'? Sure, that's subjective, but what do you think? ...or better yet: what do your friends think?
Alas, no. Which is a problem, because I'm supposed to be independent now, paying my way and what not. I act more like a 15 year old I dare say, maybe even younger, yikes!
FOUR FOR FRIDAY
Q1 - Sleep: When was the last time you pulled an all-nighter, and why? If you can't recall, then where's the most embarrassing place you've ever fallen asleep?
Well, I did stay up all night after reading the first chapter of the novelisation of Jaws, that scared the shit out of me and I couldn't sleep because every time I closed my eyes I saw the shark coming to get me! Man, was I buggered th next day.

Hmmm...I'll say Most to Least: Doctors, Clergy, Teachers, Police, Scientists, Bankers, Print Journalists, TV Newscasters, Stockbrokers and Members of Congress/Politicians.
<i>Q3 - Sick: When you’re sick, do you prefer to be left alone or do you like to have someone attending to your every whim and desire?</i>
Uh, it depends...if God forbid I think I might throw up (don't think about it!) I want to be with my mother and father because I'm really scared. If I've got a cold or something like that I just want to lie in my bed and have someone bring me some food once and a while.
<i>Q4 - Sidekick: If you could pick any cartoon character to be your very own personal assistant, who would you pick and why?</i>
Oooh, ooh...well, I love Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin, but I'm sure they'd manage to fuck up my life, royally...Soooo...I'll take Spider-Man, you can depend on Spidey.
<b>Friday Fun</b>
<u>Friday Furnishings</u>
<i>1. What is your absolute favorite piece of furniture you have and why?</i>
Well, I really like my couchbed because it's so handy! Plus it's two things, although I don't really use it as a couch...It's also a bunkbed if I was brave enough to put it up and sleep on the bottom!
<i>2. What would be your design style? Asian, Americana, country, contemporary, etc.?</i>
Err...casual, I'd say, but my mother says I dress like a Hobo, thanks, Mum!
<i>3. Are you of the spartan furnishing philosophy, or the more the better?</i>
Eh, probably spartan, but I'm so messy and leave so much crap lying around that it looks a lot busier in my room then it should be.
<i>4. My two favorite rooms are the living room and the bedroom in any house. What are your two favorite rooms?</i>
I only <b>HAVE</b> two rooms in my apartment! But generally I like living rooms and bedrooms too, interesting places :O)
<i>5. If money were no object and you were to redecorate, pick one room in your house and describe its decor.</i>
Eh, I'm happy with what I've got, but I would like a dishwasher and more shelves to put my books on. Plus more green, because it's my favourite colour! :O)
<b>Friday's Feast</b>
<i>Appetizer
What is your favorite herb or spice?</i>
Hate, hate, hate spices! I don't know why, but I can't stand them, make my poor tongue hurt, and I'm talking pepper here, never mind the harder stuff.
<i>Soup
Name a song you like but haven't heard in a long time.</i>
Uh...hmmm...well I haven't listened to any of <i>The Corrs</i> songs for aaaages, man I need to get the CDs out, they're all sitting neatly lined in the cupboard, I just have to get off my ass. :OP
<i>Salad
If you were to take just one minute to write down as many things as you can think of that you need (not want) to do, approximately how many things would there be?</i>
Get a job...that's about it.
Oh and pay the electricity bill.
And I'm gonna count contacting my friends as a need.
<i>Main Course
Tell something interesting about one of your family members (nothing scandalous, please, just something unique).</i>
My big bro is an overachieving arrogant twerp? No, no, he's cool :O) Heh an interesting fact, a friend of his made a doll that looks just like him! He left it here when he went to Japan and I take the Mike Dolly to family events to represent him. (Man, I can't believe I was surprised when Mum said I weird...)
<i>Dessert
What's the latest you've ever stayed awake?</i>
The <i>Jaws</i> book incident I would suspect. I don't pull all nighters :OP
<b>T.G.I.F</b>
<b>Red Hot Part Duex</b>
<i>1. What's been your most sizzling moment?</i>
Err...well when posing for the professional photos I was told to look sexy, LOL, can't say I did!
<i>2. What is your red hot get-up?</i>
Err...I don't have one. Although I think I look pretty good in Albert the tuxedo dress or the tropical print red and white flowered dress! As long as I've had my hair done. :O)
<i>3. What is your burning desire?</i>
Err...to play <i>Sims 2</i>, LMAO!
<i>4. Favorite hot spot?</i>
The pool, or the beach, the pool mostly because I'm a bit scared of the ocean ever since I almost drowned.
<i>5. Who's the hottie of your dreams?</i>
Heh heh, that Mr. Darcy...Prince Albert is also hawt (funnily enough the men who played those two in mini-series were brothers! Colin and Jonathan Firth respectedly! LOL!)
<b>The (Other) Friday Five</b>
<u>The Boob Tube or You Tube!</b> (Why is it called the Boob tube anyway?)
<i>1) What TV show(s) do you find yourself watching the most?
Temptation
The Simpsons
20 to 1
Cold Case</i>
Various News'
Stuff on the Crime and Investigation Network
Stuff on Discovery Home and Health
Ditto Discovery Channel.
I'm addicted to TV I'm afraid!
<i>2) What if any TV shows do you own on DVD?
The Simpsons</i>
I also plan to get <i>Smallville</i>, <i>Diagnosis Murder</i> and <i>Futurama</i> at some point, or maybe one as a Christmas or birthday present cough, cough!
<i>3) Can you name your favorite TV show theme song (I would encourage you to make a phone post and sing it to us)?</i>
I actually like the Theme to <i>Gilligan's Island</i>, though I can't actually sing the words I can oly hear them in my head for some reason...And <i>Family Guy!
It seems today that all you see
Is violence in movies and sex on TV,
But where are those good old fashion values,
On which we used to rely?
Lucky there's a family guy,
Lucky there's man who positively can't do
All the things that make us laugh and cry.
He's...a...Fam..ily...Guuuuy!</i>
<i>4) Have you ever been on TV and if so for what?</i>
For two seconds at a <i>Fair Wear Campaign</i> where we called for better treatment and fair pay of garment workers throughout the world.
<i>5) What is your favorite YouTube video (feel free to post a link)?</i>
Eh, dunno, haven't seen that much YouTube, but I loved the video review of the <i>Back to the Future</i> Nitendo game, but the one that really made me wet myself was this hilarious Spider-Man interview. Oh man, I almost died watching that one! (Sorry, I don't have a link!</lj-cut>
Ouch! I just bit myself! Ouch, stupid carrot.
In other news, there's a weird noise going on outside, it sounds like someone is sweeping or hosing the pavement...I hope it's the sooner because the latter is illegal (seriously, if the Water Monitering board come by the can fine you for that.)
I've become addicted to this new site I found while reading a message board- http://www.funtrivia.com. Good stuff, I do enjoy some good trivia! But time has flown away from me! It's almost 11:30! Luckily I played <i>Sims 2</i> this morning for a bit, so I'm not that bummed.
I am tired though, having not gotten enough sleep over the past couple of days, so yawn, I think I'll be turning in soon...
Good night for now!

Then, I came back home, got distracted and thus ended up late to the Pyschiatrist. I ran into Mum on the bus! Cool :O) Although she was most pissed off that I hadn't taken the car, it was <i>Walk to Work Day</i> today, and we weren't <b>that</b> late. But wouldn't you know it, he was on time this time...doctor's are never on time unless your late. Anywho, we discussed this issues re: lack of job and my inability it appears to tell whether I'm doing a good job or not. But he didn't have much advice, I suppose in order to find out why <i>Outsource Australia</i> I'd have to call the bastards and ask. But it's a bit late to do that. However, I <b>finally</b> got around to calling up one of those special services job find people, so hopefully I'll have more luck with them. Although, I don't like to leave Job Find 'cause Larrie's such a nice guy. Oh well, what can you do?
Alas, I'm very odd, the pyschiatrist mentioned that sometimes those special services job find people can do more harm than good and as an example he told me that a guy with a degree and an interest in computers or something was sent out to the airport to count markers and I was all "The <b>AIRPORT</b>?!

<i>Q1 - Sleep: When was the last time you pulled an all-nighter, and why? If you can't recall, then where's the most embarrassing place you've ever fallen asleep?</i>
Well, I did stay up all night after reading the first chapter of the novelisation of <i>Jaws</i>, that scared the shit out of me and I couldn't sleep because every time I closed my eyes I saw the shark coming to get me! Man, was I buggered th next day.
<i<q2 -="-" trust:="Trust:" who="Who" do="do" trust="trust" the="the" most,="most," or="or" in="in" what="what" order="order" would="would" you="you" rank="rank" your="your" level="level" of="of" trust="trust" for="for" each="each" of="of" the="the" following:="following:" clergy,="Clergy," teachers,="Teachers," police,="Police," doctors,="Doctors," print="Print" journalists,="Journalists," bankers,="Bankers," tv="TV" newscasters,="Newscasters," scientists,="Scientists," lawyers,="Lawyers," members="Members" of="of" congress,="Congress," and="and" stockbrokers?</i="Stockbrokers?</i">
Hmmm...I'll say Most to Least: Doctors, Clergy, Teachers, Police, Scientists, Bankers, Print Journalists, TV Newscasters, Stockbrokers and Members of Congress/Politicians.
<i>Q3 - Sick: When you’re sick, do you prefer to be left alone or do you like to have someone attending to your every whim and desire?</i>
Uh, it depends...if God forbid I think I might throw up (don't think about it!) I want to be with my mother and father because I'm really scared. If I've got a cold or something like that I just want to lie in my bed and have someone bring me some food once and a while.
<i>Q4 - Sidekick: If you could pick any cartoon character to be your very own personal assistant, who would you pick and why?</i>
Oooh, ooh...well, I love Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin, but I'm sure they'd manage to fuck up my life, royally...Soooo...I'll take Spider-Man, you can depend on Spidey.
<b>Friday Fun</b>
<u>Friday Furnishings</u>
<i>1. What is your absolute favorite piece of furniture you have and why?</i>
Well, I really like my couchbed because it's so handy! Plus it's two things, although I don't really use it as a couch...It's also a bunkbed if I was brave enough to put it up and sleep on the bottom!
<i>2. What would be your design style? Asian, Americana, country, contemporary, etc.?</i>
Err...casual, I'd say, but my mother says I dress like a Hobo, thanks, Mum!
<i>3. Are you of the spartan furnishing philosophy, or the more the better?</i>
Eh, probably spartan, but I'm so messy and leave so much crap lying around that it looks a lot busier in my room then it should be.
<i>4. My two favorite rooms are the living room and the bedroom in any house. What are your two favorite rooms?</i>
I only <b>HAVE</b> two rooms in my apartment! But generally I like living rooms and bedrooms too, interesting places :O)
<i>5. If money were no object and you were to redecorate, pick one room in your house and describe its decor.</i>
Eh, I'm happy with what I've got, but I would like a dishwasher and more shelves to put my books on. Plus more green, because it's my favourite colour! :O)
<b>Friday's Feast</b>
<i>Appetizer
What is your favorite herb or spice?</i>
Hate, hate, hate spices! I don't know why, but I can't stand them, make my poor tongue hurt, and I'm talking pepper here, never mind the harder stuff.
<i>Soup
Name a song you like but haven't heard in a long time.</i>
Uh...hmmm...well I haven't listened to any of <i>The Corrs</i> songs for aaaages, man I need to get the CDs out, they're all sitting neatly lined in the cupboard, I just have to get off my ass. :OP
<i>Salad
If you were to take just one minute to write down as many things as you can think of that you need (not want) to do, approximately how many things would there be?</i>
Get a job...that's about it.
Oh and pay the electricity bill.
And I'm gonna count contacting my friends as a need.
<i>Main Course
Tell something interesting about one of your family members (nothing scandalous, please, just something unique).</i>
My big bro is an overachieving arrogant twerp? No, no, he's cool :O) Heh an interesting fact, a friend of his made a doll that looks just like him! He left it here when he went to Japan and I take the Mike Dolly to family events to represent him. (Man, I can't believe I was surprised when Mum said I weird...)
<i>Dessert
What's the latest you've ever stayed awake?</i>
The <i>Jaws</i> book incident I would suspect. I don't pull all nighters :OP
<b>T.G.I.F</b>
<b>Red Hot Part Duex</b>
<i>1. What's been your most sizzling moment?</i>
Err...well when posing for the professional photos I was told to look sexy, LOL, can't say I did!
<i>2. What is your red hot get-up?</i>
Err...I don't have one. Although I think I look pretty good in Albert the tuxedo dress or the tropical print red and white flowered dress! As long as I've had my hair done. :O)
<i>3. What is your burning desire?</i>
Err...to play <i>Sims 2</i>, LMAO!
<i>4. Favorite hot spot?</i>
The pool, or the beach, the pool mostly because I'm a bit scared of the ocean ever since I almost drowned.
<i>5. Who's the hottie of your dreams?</i>
Heh heh, that Mr. Darcy...Prince Albert is also hawt (funnily enough the men who played those two in mini-series were brothers! Colin and Jonathan Firth respectedly! LOL!)
<b>The (Other) Friday Five</b>
<u>The Boob Tube or You Tube!</b> (Why is it called the Boob tube anyway?)
<i>1) What TV show(s) do you find yourself watching the most?
Temptation
The Simpsons
20 to 1
Cold Case</i>
Various News'
Stuff on the Crime and Investigation Network
Stuff on Discovery Home and Health
Ditto Discovery Channel.
I'm addicted to TV I'm afraid!
<i>2) What if any TV shows do you own on DVD?
The Simpsons</i>
I also plan to get <i>Smallville</i>, <i>Diagnosis Murder</i> and <i>Futurama</i> at some point, or maybe one as a Christmas or birthday present cough, cough!
<i>3) Can you name your favorite TV show theme song (I would encourage you to make a phone post and sing it to us)?</i>
I actually like the Theme to <i>Gilligan's Island</i>, though I can't actually sing the words I can oly hear them in my head for some reason...And <i>Family Guy!
It seems today that all you see
Is violence in movies and sex on TV,
But where are those good old fashion values,
On which we used to rely?
Lucky there's a family guy,
Lucky there's man who positively can't do
All the things that make us laugh and cry.
He's...a...Fam..ily...Guuuuy!</i>
<i>4) Have you ever been on TV and if so for what?</i>
For two seconds at a <i>Fair Wear Campaign</i> where we called for better treatment and fair pay of garment workers throughout the world.
<i>5) What is your favorite YouTube video (feel free to post a link)?</i>
Eh, dunno, haven't seen that much YouTube, but I loved the video review of the <i>Back to the Future</i> Nitendo game, but the one that really made me wet myself was this hilarious Spider-Man interview. Oh man, I almost died watching that one! (Sorry, I don't have a link!</lj-cut>
Ouch! I just bit myself! Ouch, stupid carrot.
In other news, there's a weird noise going on outside, it sounds like someone is sweeping or hosing the pavement...I hope it's the sooner because the latter is illegal (seriously, if the Water Monitering board come by the can fine you for that.)
I've become addicted to this new site I found while reading a message board- http://www.funtrivia.com. Good stuff, I do enjoy some good trivia! But time has flown away from me! It's almost 11:30! Luckily I played <i>Sims 2</i> this morning for a bit, so I'm not that bummed.
I am tired though, having not gotten enough sleep over the past couple of days, so yawn, I think I'll be turning in soon...
Good night for now!
