Woke up, got up really early, nearly killed myself at the gym, went to a few uni lectures, for some reason went and nearly killed myself at the gym again, came home, did a couple of online lectures for uni, played rs, and have been mentally preparing for the sweet outdoor rave party I have at 4am tomorrow morning.

4:20!

Today, when I walked from the canteen back to my department, some random dude asked me if I spoke English, I said yes because I thought he was a tourist or something, he started casual smalltalk (how much coursework I got & how long till summer holidays etc), but soon enough he asked me quite straight if I believed in God (first time I've ever been asked by a complete stranger irl). What surprised me the most was that he didn't try to convert me or anything, but instead we had a great (if such discussions can ever be great?) albeit short discussion about laws of nature & the creator, wether some famous physicist were believers etc. It was kinda fun, but also creepy and weird. Then when we were at my department, he didn't even give me a leaflet or anything, just turned back to where we had came from :blink:

Part of my robotics team was included in a picture that's on Gizmodo. I feel popular now :3

 

Anyways, to whoever's familiar with USFIRST, my FTC team got 3rd place at the world championship. Was pretty cool. We definitely would have gotten first though, if the bluetooth for our alliance partner didn't drop for an entire minute :l

I'm still getting over my cold. I'm still very tired and weak, but besides that a good day. I have psych 101 in about a hour so I'd better get going on that.

I had to filter out all of the "420-Freaks". I also applied at Wal-Mart.

Today I did some rugby 7s practice with my friends, and also worked on my project report, ultimately a worse day than yesterday.

Left my USB cable for my iPhone at home, this is going to be a long day. <_<

Who the [bleep] thought up BYO parties. What a [cabbage]ty idea. Who the [bleep] even thought of BYO, I feel like stabbing them in the face.

 

Damned if I'm gonna bring MY own goon to YOUR party. :wall:

Just put it in a paper sack and drink straight from the bottle. Don't share.

I wasn't planning on anyway, but, if you're hosting a party, at least have the good decency to supply the booze. I'm against the philosophy of BYO itself. I'm all for chipping in $10 with 20 other people, so there's plenty for everyone, but BYO ? [bleep] that

I'd rather bring my own stuff than drink whatever terrible drink they choose.

All the parties i've been to have been BYO. Don't think i've been to a single one where the folks throwing the party supplied all the drink.

There's been whip-arounds for money for more drink, like £5-10 from each person, but thats only when the drink everyone brought has started to run dry.

Today at work we shut down at about 8:30, which left 2 hours and 15 minutes until I could go home. We did the cleanup in 30 minutes and then took 30 of break, leaving now 1 hour, 15 minutes. So the man in charge of labour distribution asks me to help clean up a chocolate spill that happened between midnight and 4am (from what I understand, it was leaking that entire time) the night before! Why it wasn't cleaned up by the time I got TO work, I have no idea. It spread across 7 giant vats (each one a minimum of 7 feet in diameter) and into the next room. Luckily it was almost done when they found me.

Why didn't you just get the Oompa-Loompas to clean it up for you ?

Same, since my friends ONLY buy cheap Vodka or cheap Beer, both of which taste terrible. I'll bring my own Bourbon thanks.

Last day as a minor today. My friend was annoyed because I couldn't buy him cigs today. Not looking forward to Tafe tomorrow, maybe I can talk mum out of making me go, I'm ahead anyway.

If it's just to get smashed, BYO alcohol is standard. If it was however say a BBQ then I would expect 1-3 cartons of beer and a number of bottles of Coke/Pepsi/etc for the people not drinking alcohol. The food is also expected at a BBQ.. when it becomes BYO meat, etc then you're just entering the world of a cheapskate host and should tell them to diaf. Back to a drinking parties tho, occasionally i see people pitch in for a better deal rather than buying multiple 6-packs, cartons, etc and just get a couple of slabs for less, etc. That's still BYO tho since they usually go out and get it rather than the host, so.. w/e.

 

Bringing your own booze ensures there WILL be something available that you enjoy. Leave it in the hand of the host and you might find the only drinks available cheap champagne or some wine that tastes like warm piss. Or 1 slab of cheap beer that provides enough drinks for 1 each..

Get a keg. Or two. One of Beer, one of Icebreaker. If someone still isn't happy then tell 'em to go [bleep] themselves.

The company couldn't get them to come to the ice cream factory... I think they went on strike, or something. The mess was massive, though. It was at LEAST 5000kg (~11000 pounds), and by the time I got there it was only about 10kg (~22 pounds) left. Pretty good timing, if I do say so myself.

Spent about an hour making a delicious breakfast (fried cod, cheese, fruit, tea, coconut bread and tartar sauce).

 

Spent a few hours doing schoolwork, then started stripping the branches off of a few trees we took down. Good day =)

I woke up, made some breakfast to my boyfriend, then I woke him up and after he was done with his meal I sent him to work.

Then I did nothing except registering to this forums because I felt sick.

Urgh. I hate mornings. 18 today, but I don't get any presents till this arvo. I'll probably get a text from my mate asking me to buy him cigs as he can't for 21 more days. Expecting calls throughout the day, so I better be prepared to step out of class a lot. (Most of my family calls me on my birthday.)

I found out that I was supposed to take teh test thing to get my license on teh third... Lovely :rolleyes:

A state-wide virus got into the computer system in schools of Kentucky today. I spent about 9 hours helping my high school go through 1200 computers getting rid of the bug. I am tired now.

 

Other than that I came home and ate a large pizza from Pizza Hut. Now I am lurking the forums.
