Gardening
I don’t think anyone would have recognised me this afternoon – I was gardening. Serious stuff like transplanting plants, clearing concrete from around the plants, digging and watering and getting very muddy. Now the one section of the garden doesn’t look like a builder’s site.
Though, on second thoughts I may have been recognisable – I hadn’t gone out to do all of the above so I was not really dressed for gardening – white frilly shirts and stud belts aren’t really the thing to wear while grubbing in the dirt.
I’ve invented a new drink – Iron Brew and vodka. All it needs is a cheesy name like ‘Hard Iron’ and it will be hugely popular amongst people – only that ‘people’ would be me.
It’s amazing what people tell you if you pretend you don’t know anything.
Discovery
I discovered there is a UNISA exam centre in MB – I found this out last night through someone who studies through UNISA and writes here as well. It’s too late to change for May/Jun exams [and I want to go back to CT] but I’m thinking about it for Oct/Nov because they are so spread out [the exams] and then just staying in CT for December. I’m starting piano lessons and don’t want to miss those that I’ve paid for – you pay per school term.
And I’ve started Wu Tai Chi – it’s quite nice, I enjoyed it. Though, the instructor is also my dentist…
Pulled
The misshapen tooth can’t be saved so I’m having it pulled next week. But other than that I have good, clean teeth. This is good to know considering I last went to the dentist almost four years ago
Air Gear RAW
After some backwards and forwards on the Air Gear thread I managed to get the RAW for 235 and am attempting to translate it. However, the quality is very low and I’m struggling a bit to read it so I don’t know how far I will get.
I have a dentist appointment tomorrow to sort out some weirdness with a wisdom tooth. Luckily there is no pain with the tooth – it’s just really misshapen due to sudden gum reccession and I fear it’s a food trap that could become a painful problem.
Media studies is a crap subject.
Onion soup
Aki-chan will understand this.
I was meeting some of my father’s friends and we ended up talking about sweet chilli sauce and I said how great it was mixed with mayo, spead over chicken and baked to be served on rice. The woman then said oh, you should add – and I froze, sure she was going to say brown onion soup but she didn’t.
She said WHITE ONION SOUP!
Strawberry
I had a thought last night about Bleach 350… Shinigami are dead, Hollows are dead, Visored are dead and Ichigo is a bit of everything.
Unexpected
by the Fourth, that is – Naruto’s reaction made me laugh out loud.
Though having read them now, I have nothing to read tomorrow morning… Maybe Air Gear will be out.
Trust
People are very trusting in MB. They take your word on anything. You don’t need proof of anything – what you fill in on the form is obviously the truth. Though the library did take over a week to issue a card
I really, really get upset when characters I like die in books and I get really, really angry at some of the characters when they make silly mistakes. I’ve just finished The Last Kingdom by Bernard Cornwell – enjoyed it so much except for the dying and the silliness. Now I have to try and find the next one and I know it is on the bookshelf in CT because I bought it and stuck it there.
Drum
Doing something silly in my sleep, I hurt my neck on Thursday. But this time it was a lot more painful than before so I ended up going to a stress relief thing. I wasn’t exactly pressured into it but I wasn’t going alone and the pain was so that I was willing to try the crystal crap – but she’s not like that
I rather liked her. She did say that my lower back muscles were so compacted [??] that she could beat out a rhythm were I a drum. And she saidthat it would feel worst before it felt better. I think she should have said you will feel like crap – the agony. The only time I could actually tolerate the pain was to lie on my back with my knees bend. Even my jaw hurt. I had had a migraine on Friday and so didn’t want to take more drugs because then I feel like shit and can’t concentrate. So I spent the day on my back reading communication law – terribly boring and complex but alas, necessary.
Anyway I’m going for more on Thursday – you have to have a few before you feel well. Today there was a lot of pain but a lot more movement. Erm… we shall see.
Curiously, she said it was years worth of stress that had caused the muscles to compact so. Then I got thinking, I don’t [or so I believed] lead a highly stressful life – there are times that are stressful. But then again, last year was bad. Just bad and the year before I was still working in the Dungeon and that was bad so maybe… Though, I say this but while she was working on my back – the relief!
I managed to send off two assignments today but I’ve got two due on Friday… a bit behind but can make it. I’ll fumble through Japanese – eep!
