Moved In

Finally hath moved into my corridor of a room, huzzah.  It is kinda like a corridor, but it's not as bad as it sounds mainly cause you can practically jump on the bed as soon as you enter the room.  Things have been going alright, but I am tired right now and I'm only really blogging cause I overheard Dave was blogging so I thought it would be funny if I blogged at the same time as him.  Hi Dave!  Muahaha.

T Minus 6 Hours and Counting

Back to Dundee in under 6 hours now.  To be honest I'm not in the mood for it cause I'm not feeling too good, damn cold, but I'm sure it'll be a lot better when I get there and get settled and see everyone and start my course and stop dribbling saliva everywhere.  Wow what a long sentence.

I'd like to wish everyone who reads this good luck in this year.  Although the Fellowship has been split into three parties, we shall find our way back into Midgar, use the power of the Lucozady summon, and smote the evil villain known as -- Coursewerk.  You shall die again and again biatch in a death befitting at least 10 Chefs!

Everyone else, good luck with the bake sales.  Or not, just good luck anyway, I'm sure you shall make fine craftsmen.

My attempt at odd humor has gone awry, damn my running nose and saliva.  See y'all later.

Funny Picture

I totally forgot about this picture, but I took it that strange day we wondered into Ottokar's and instead of it being a book shop, we wondered into a Doctor Who / Book Shop crossover episode.  Luckily Ryan was wielding a poster tuber with the DOOM movie poster inside it, to protect us all from the Dalek menance.  Take that you bastard.

New Era Dawns

Well all of my crappy humor aside, it's nearing the end of the summer.  And as good as the summer has been (when I mean good I mean, some parts of it, not all of it, it was boring sometimes, annoying at others) I think I'm ready to get back to Scotland.  Mainly due to my lack of things to do.  That's not to say I don't have enough to do around here, buying DVD's is a tough job as many of you know that, but I'm ready to go back to uni and get stuck into 3rd year, and develop Tesseractris.  Yes you read right, and I'm not going to say anything more about that in order to purposefully create ambiguiety about my idea for a game!  Muahaha.

It shall be good seeing the whole gang again, Scooby, Fred, Daffney, Shaggy, not so much Velma though, the whole Magilla (not that stupid fucking gorilla).  But yes everyone and you know who you are (I shall not mention names as that would make me sound unmanly.), it will be good to get see you and shout Doom again, as well as talk about foul temptresses (is that temptressi?) and strapping ourselves in to feel the:

G! (imagine that to be very big)

A list of accomplishments, I uhh, accomplished, this summer

  • I got all four seasons of Futurama, but that hardly matters now cause they are bringing it back, great!
  • I got all three seasons of Black Books.
  • I got 6 seasons of Friends so far
  • I got a cool poster (Edward Hopper, Nighthawks, yes google it)
  • I watched Texhnolyze many times
  • I got a wireless router and at this very moment, I am surfing the net from the comfort of my own bed
  • I fixed my bed a number of times this summer
  • Yes, with makeshift tools.
  • I found out that the name of the Batman Begins sequel will be "The Dark Knight"
  • How cool is that?
  • I still managed to remember most of the Java I learnt
  • I just changed my seating position from straight legs to crossed legged
  • I am now much more comfortable
  • I managed to eat very little fast food
  • By comparison to what I ate in Dundee
  • I lost a stone again
  • I'm at 10 stone, maybe under it now
  • I wouldn't call that an accomplishment
  • HOWEVER THIS IS
  • I bought the Lord of the Rings: Extended Edition box set
  • And thought it kicked ass
  • FOR GONDOR!!
  • Light on the fifth day and all that
  • Another accomplishment that I just made was that I managed to put in elements that are not accomplishments into my list of summer accomplishments
That's all I can think of right now.  But looking back on it, all I really accomplished was an extreme lightening of my bank balance coupled with losing weight and lying about and pretty much doing damn all.  Well, I am a student I suppose.

Arighty, in 17 days time, the Fellowship shall return to the lands of Dundor, to unite with the remainder of the other Fellowship.  Indeed, the victory celebration in the Halls of Student shall be a glorious one.

Stay Alive

Me and G1000 recently went and seen the film Stay Alive starring a bunch of no named actors and Frankie Muniz (as Swink, I'm not kidding).  This film is about a video game, called Stay Alive, which kills you if you die in the game.  Yes, it's like we all feared, there are no continues, no green mushrooms and definitely no gore.  It sucked.  I mean it flat out sucked.  Me and G went into the film with the mind set that it was gonna be pretty terrible, and by God we were right.
 
The film was weird in the sense that at times in the film, the characters in the real world were moving in the same way in the game world.  But then this logic is ruined when Swink controls his character from the back of a van while he runs around him so mammoth house that looks ripped off from House of the Dead.  It's like, shouldn't Swink be running forward in the real world if he was running forward in the game world?
 
The whole game thing concept was based off of this old Hungarian Countess who murdered lots of people for no real reason, and occasionally took to her Horse and (Mario) Cart and ran people down that way.  One guy got killed by being ran down by Horse and (Mario) Cart, it was pretty funny.  I burst out laughing.  So basically this woman uhh, I forget, got killed or something, or sealed somewhere, but her SPIRIT STILL REMAINS *scary laugh* and is so strong as to burn itself onto a DVD and turn itself into a really cheese survival horror game played by Malcom in the Middle.
 
So it was kind of funny for me at times as to what way the characters were gonna be killed:
 
  • Mario was going to appear from behind and say "It's-ah me! Mario!" and jump on their neck till it breaks
  • Samus Aran was just going to shoot their stomach off using the Hyperbeam
  • Sonic was going to run past them all so fast that their skin would be tore off
  • Link would've swung in with his master sword and well, you know the rest
  • Sawyer would've called them all names
  • Quenten Tarantino would've made them watch Kill Bill Vol. 2 on his PSP
  • Solid Snake make them follow endless footprints in the snow till they make a "???" emote.  This emote will cause their heads to explode
  • A giant Tetris shape would fall on their heads
  • "G-T-A BITCH!"

A few I thought up while I was watching it, others just their now.  Amusing non?  I'd give the film a 3/10, purely for the well, nothing really, it was just mildly entertaining.

Evanescence

Out of curiousity of something new to download, I found that a new Evanescence track has been released called "Call Me When You're Sober".  I downloaded it and listened. It is shit. Just another 3 to 4 minute pretentious, emo, pseudo-epic streak of a piss.  Seriously why do they release this crap? Is every single child in the world looking for some band to express their feelings of lost love?  Westlife managed to write many songs on the subject of love and most "moshers" hate them.  I do to but that's based on their musical ability and the fact that well, they're twats.

I wish Evanescence would accomplish what their name means and finally disappear from the world forever.  Wow that sounded quite epic, I bet it's a lyric on their new album.
