Parade gets RickRolled

Epic. The most annoying of internet memes springs to life when Rick Astley himself makes a surprise appearance and breaks into.. Never gonna give you up… Wonderful.. :)

We won!!

Just in the door from my debate. We won! Went very well. Everyone said their speeches perfectly and I managed to get over my hurdle of inserting rebuttal! I just had pre-written cards: “You may be tempted to believe ________ and the other members of the proposition when they..” …and then just filled in the [...]

Debate Tonight

Yes, today is the day. Tonight, we are debating in St. Joseph’s Secondary School in Newcastlewest, they’re proposing the motion that College Fees should be reintroduced. We’re opposing the motion. Today’s been pretty mixed up. Doing Young Scientist work this morning, then going into school for two classes but doing debate practice, then having 3 [...]

Somebody loves me!

Well, not exactly I migrated from using G-mail online to Mail.app and it got every mail my Collison.ie account ever got. All 3352 of them. I just wanted to feel loved… :( :)

My respect for Pat Kenny just got +10 ed

OK, so it’s kind of fun and cool to slag certain people; Pat Kenny is one, I met him back in April when the langers were interviewed and the camera got turned on me. That was a horrible question to get asked How do you go about answering that without appearing to have an ego [...]

Tommy and John took me for my first real walk tonight and I asked him I may share it on the blog tonight. It seemed a pretty normal day. [...]

Drumming 4.0

So, boredom last night led me to do another drumming video. I had never been ridiculously happy with the other two, but the Snow one was alright. I’m happier with this one though BTW, that joke about donating is actually, y’know, a joke. I’m not actually going to add a PayPal link in the sidebar..

Yay!

Epic thanks to Alexia for fixing up the problems with my theme – namely it’s refusal to allow images anywhere but on the left. Also thanks to John for reuploading the CSS file as he was trying to watch the match :)

Desktop

I’m not ordinarily a messy person. My room is pretty immaculate because it has to be. Bed, wardrobe, drums, desk and shelves all have to live in harmony. My laptop’s desktop on the other hand is a complete dump and if I didn’t have spotlight (Apple’s uber quick search facility) I’d probably go bananas. Today [...]

Friday Project :: Family Values

Right, just leafing through some folders in a cleanup of my laptop. Found a very old story I wrote in April. It’s a James Bond short story. Anyway, I though you might want to see it, so here it is: :: Prologue :: There was a bing! bong! noise over the speaker and a cool [...]
