It seems that november has snuck up on me and said: DO THINGS!

With this glorious directive I will now recount the things which shall be done!

-Apply to go over seas. All of teh paper work is due in on the 30th of Nov. Handy that.
-Go spaz first into the NaNoWriMo challenge and see how far I get. Best thing is I can keep what I make.
-Dig up a vegetable plot.
-Have a working bee.
-Help friends paint house.
-Help brother move his vegetable plot to the back of his house and make the front pretty.
-Start going to watch roller derby! This is going to my "do things that do not inlove bars" social life plan.
-Research and get into volunteer work as close to the renewable energy area as possible. have a few leads that I will be chasing but input is always good.
-And finally do some research/looking into how to plot a comic book arc as it would appear in a comic book. This has direct correlation to my NaNoWriMo project. More on that as well.

I think that is enough to keep me occupied along with some shifts at work /grin. At least untill November finishes will post more things to do when December comes!

Come what may, tomorrow at 1 pm I will be on my way to my old work for celebration beers as I will have finished Uni for the year! w00t.

This leaves applying to go over seas for a year, write my NaNoWriMo novel, help with another, start my own mediation business with family and take over my room from my clothes.

There will be more coming next week so bear with me (spelling intended)

Things. Things have been churning, sloshing and generally not like a concrete slab. I will try and explain, but this could also lead to explosions. You have been warned.

Uni:
Once again I study and work on my inability to do any piece of assessment before the week it is due. It is an ongoing thing but I am slowly working on the underlyeing reasons. Hopefully this will help with change bringing and more importantly being able to hand in something that is not a first draft.

Work:
I had my last shift of bar work last Friday. Normally this would be a break in between a another bar job. But this really felt like it was the END of bar work for me. I left this place while still in the good books, but I am at the pinnacle of carrier choice that does not involve me practicing something obsessively. So it is off to start up a business with my Mum and practice what I am learning at Uni.

Life:
I am finding more and more that I am the one that will be needing to make contacts and go places as I do not seem to be included in loops. This is my own fault, so I will endeavor to fix it. Finding things that can be done with other people but do not require money are good 'uns. If you have any suggestions that would rock. Hobbies could be a plan.

Pants: The ongoing war on pants continues, spring is here and so I have declared it shorts weather. OBAY!

That is all for me atm, you all stay sexy and I will bring you more morsels of awesome at a later date.

I'm Busy and
Your Almost
On Fire

on the back:

wait here

That line has been bouncing around my head all of today and yesterday, finally got the right words for it.

Besides that I am putting my self back into Yan Can Cook mode, getting excited about looking for placement (its the only way I can motivate my self it seems), getting my n3rd fix from www.toplessrobot.com and just mooching.

I am planing an adventure to Ikea, planning because I am not Ikea is one of the many places I cannot be trusted to go to by my self with any form of currency (would you believe that Ikea will not take other peoples children as payment? Disgusting isn't it?).

I am trying to keep all of my worldly goods confined to a space no bigger than one room because I plan to travel next year for study. So while having a 3 seater home theater couch with recliner, fridge and built in butt massage is a purchase I aspire to it is not something that is necessary now. Bugger.

The other factor in the is I still have no access to a car so once again I will be useing Older Brother Moving Co. TM for all my moving needs (and he is fantastic with stopping me from buying things, although booze does not fall under this category it seems). Which reminds me I need to get sake for consumption and enjoyment.

Stay sexy friends will see you soonish, maybe. If the ghosts don't get me first.

So it seems that my lappy (A dell) kicked the bucket and if I decide to get it fixed will most likely cost more than it is worth.... And its a Dell. Did I mention that?

So I am putting it out there to you my very sexy and knowledgeable friends that I am considering buying a lappy.

Some things that it needs to have.

-Low price. I am a full time student and need to spend all my money on coffee and more coffee and have no spare cash for other things.

-An ability to play DVDs with out over heating (yup my gaming lappy could not play a DVD from start to finish with out over heating cos the fan sat flush with the table it was on and only kicked in when it had hit critical heat, oh and would only stay on from a limited amount of time /shakes fist at Dell *grrrr*) this is not a huge thing, I just like being able to watch stuff where ever and when ever I liek.

-Really all it needs to be is a word processor, every thing else is a bounus.

Thems is the needs of the Ruu (besides hugs and coffee) I await your gifts of knowledge with baited breath and beating heart :)

Edit: Okies looks like Eeepc is the way to go. Have had some pump ups from peeps saying thems is good cookies.

So now the question is: I wonder where I would go about purchasing one? On line/personally doing it with another human the way mum and pop used to do it back in the day? Your thoughts?

hay folks I am in need of a hand with a little research. I am interested which advertises use "fear" or "peace of mind" to sell their product. I chose these because they both fit in to the same catagory, Peace of Mind implies that you do not have it or you could get more, while fear is making you think about the lack of "peace of mind" you have.

The problem is that am loath to watch TV unless its a DVD or snuggle time. And neither of those will help me concentrate on the ads. I also mentally blank them out any way so it gets worse and worse.

This is where you all come in. I'm almost 50% sure that some of you must at some point turn on the TV. I would like to ask if you do see any ads with those themes running through it to note what company is selling it and what the product is. I will then track it down over the internet. At least then I do not have to see the TV :)

Many thanks in advance my sexy and wonderful friends

Ruuha the Subtle

We all have one, the smelly chunk of brain stem that tells you to "cough" fight and be "amorous-even-in-the-event-of-fighting" and my lizard brain is kicken in. Its say frag boy frag, frag big and hard and when you canna frag no more..... its rocket time.

So I am putting a little bunch of questions out to you all:
-Fave old FPS?
-Current fave FPS?
-Any one have clans or the like that we could get into/ressurect for joint FPSing?

WoW is still treating me great and when I raid its tres fun. But I canna raid rull time cos of Uni, I can't really put the time in because that would take away from being bad ass at Uni and that is prime concern atm (besides going to Cons and picking up :P)

So yar, FPS baby, you likey me big rocket jump all night long oooooh yeah?

Right I think the time to set fire to all the internets has come. Facebook spams me with never ending ads about "hooking up" "sex" "finding a partner/friend/lover/goat/thing with sockets and a table saw".... which is kind of funny cos they have no idea about my idea of a good partner and the endless photos of large breasted girls with fake smiles and perfect skin is funny. But now LJ is starting it too. Live Journal. I know that people share their lives on here and if the internets has shown me any thing it is that there is always someone willing to drop their pants (hell give me a beer and chuck me in a social setting with the words "I bet Ruu wouldn't drop his pants" leads to friction burns surrounding me as my pants break the sound barrier on their way down).

This ties in with my current studies into the making of modern identity. What is our identity. Is it our Families perception of us? Do our friends know us best? What about the one friend who gets to know all of your secrets? Is the internet, covered by the anonymity of the screen you stare at the only time where you are truly who you are?

This is interesting as we look our selves and think about the photos up on the internet. I have a FB and ever since I have used the internet been rabidly against my image being on the net. But FB takes the power away. Of the 80 or so pics, 3-4 are taken and put up by me all the rest are from others. Which is fine, cos I have been able to choose a life where what I do on the weekend is work and my week revolves around study so no real repercussions from simulated organism all over a friends(male) face.

Another question around who we really are is: Do we buy into the stories told about us? Goibg back to my life atm, not much has changed, I still work in bars. This in its self gives you an idea as to what I'm like. Does that mean that even though I am a bartender I am outgoing, always up for parties and shenanigans? The identity of a bar tender matches those assumptions. What about that of the mature aged student? Smart, high achieving, intolerant of all people under the age of 70. Well yes that is me as well. although I am intolerant of any thing that is not a beer or coffee (this might be a lie).

So we have many many ideas about who we are. We have, as technology progresses more ways in which to build our identity's. I could probably fly to the US/overseas and meet up with a person I muck around with in WoW and we could have never ending chats about things and be welcomed to their houses. Just because of computer game where I try to get along with people and enjoy my self. And get people to take off their pants.

I think this might be a good thing. Making new ways of forging an identity that is not wrapped up right from the get go. Because things that can change work better than things that don't. So my sexy friends take care and see if you can change, more to the point change your self to a non pants wearing person. It feels good and it makes erotic/sexual acts on a moments notice much much easier.

I have another house inspection to do in about 3 hours, wish me luck. If it works out I will have a house to live, love and play in! But not getting excited not getting excited, could be weird nerd hating dumb-asses.... who knows its all up in the air. We shall see. Stay sexy friends :)

It is b'day season once again oh and some holiday as well not that it is really important. I have just had 2 of my cousins b'day's yesterday (23rd) tomorrow will be my brothers (happy b'day bro!) and 2 days after that will be mine. Then on the 31st there is a very good and close friend of mines as well.

This is kind of cool cos I get to eat lots which is right up there on my things I love doing with sleeping, sex, coffee and kissing girls :)

The bad thing is that every couple of years my family (both my parents have remarried so is quite a large amount of family) goes through the miss-guided notion of trying to orginise things for my b'day. They get this wrong often cos 1, its not in a bar/pub 2, they know non of my friends so the same old things happen that happened 2 days ago at the chrismass breakfast/dinner/lunch thing. I love them very much but they have the party-planing-ability of a bottom feeding sea jelly (sea jellys do not party ever. Ever) But I have gotten that out of their system I think.

So I will do the do and thingy the thing, I hope your family times are good, if you get presents that they are thoughtful and warming/juicy. /Bighugs and kisses to you all!

Holy banana skins, this is a bright-glow-in-the-dark-bring-on-the-living-dead-strap-your-grandmother-to-a-tank-we-are-going-to-Vagas kind of a comp.

Now the next step is to pimp my comp, first I will need a stencil of "don't panic" from the original TV series of the hitchhikers guide, pink paint (cos nothing says kick ass like pink paint on a black box with blue LEDs)

I will also be splashing out on a keyboard, mouse and screen to round out the awesome! ahhhh life is full of the quiet hum of me having a comp that well hums....

/glee!

for quite some time now my plan b has been "go to the pub" while this is fun and engaging, its not really getting me any where except beer! (yes beer is a destination in my book) so I am changing plan b to "go for a bike ride" that should help I feel. Now for a new bike! why cos I can!

Right now I really want a flying salmon, in a battle suit, with lazers to be my side kick as I use awesome telekenitic powers to pick up and throw bank safe doors at any one really. And a flame thrower, I need a big fuck off flame thrower! Coffee, I'll need a battle suit that is part awesome, part chicken, part coffee machine and just a little armor tho mostly I will be protected by the chicken.

Some times I wounder abiout my study habits, all of yesterday and today I have studied Anti-discrimination law and yet the images going through my mind are of battlesuited salmon rescuing money from banks while I smash things with teh safe door..... Maybe I should start writing super hero stories as well.

Its good that I still have a brain that works like it should :)

edit: I have just spent an annoying half hour trying to DL some legislation for my exam tomorrow from a bugged server... says that the sex discrimination act does not exist. Ahhh well detatchable :)

Still I got what I need in my scone, wish my lappy had not died but thems the breaks, will update tomorrow after many many not thinkings

As it is the first day I have proper interwebs at home I must post something :) I have my first exam tomorrow, feeling good about it.

There is a maintain the rage party happening and I cannot be there as I will be in Queensland soaking up the every thing that is good in Queensland :D

Other than that, I live 30ks away from work instead of 20k so its getting interesting to see just how committed I am to riding to work.... 60ks + 5-8 hours of work when I should be asleep is bordering on the truly well I just don't have words for that atm. Will get back with results after some research and discovery.

Hope your all sexy and well :)

-Moving house today :D

-First exam on tues

-Assignment due thurs

-Going to Queensland thursday night

-next exam on the 19th

-blah

-Profit

It has come to my attention that I like gaming. In fact so much so that I spent a sum of money just so I could game over seas :) It has also come to my attention that I should prolly upgrade my desk top for pwning action.

Things that are most important:

-New mother board. I need some form of dual or quad core beast. For no other reason than I need a dual or quad core :) I would appreciate any ideas, web sites, pros/cons of various mother boards. Scientific rigor is appreciated but not necessary.

-Graphics card/s. I will find out what type of graphics card I have already, to provide comparison to see if 1 more will be enough or is it time for 2.

-More Rams. I know about this one and will be getting more DDRs Rams thank you very much. Prolly rock somewhere between 3-4 gig :D

-5,000,000 fans. Dur.

-New case and lights. I will be getting a Big fuck off black box. With a bright pink "DON"T PANIC" on the side which may or may not light up depending.

Yeah, first and for most mother board. Then graphics cards, then rams then others. Trying to convince family that getting me a new mother board is the perfect christmass/birthday present. So while all advice and random anecdotes are welcome, give me the mother board ones first!

Many thanks and hugs in advance to you all my sexy wonderful friends :D

ps edit: as a tempter to get things rolling I will be offering Real Life hugs to any one that posts with helpful information about computer building or dinosaurs

update on hugs for infomation:

I had a moment of consideration about a week ago, about how I spend my cash. A night on the town is easly $100 where as a night in with WoW even with teh booze is somewhere around the $5 mark. The next thing I considdered was going out is loosing its spark, prolly because I spend all my time in bars any way, so going out for "drinks" or a "praty" is well ..... I can do that at work and there will be people I know and cheep food and beer. This is not to say I don't want ot go to bars with friends and chat and drink but the chatting is getting better while the drinking is well still drinking.

And so with those thoughts I went and bought a game card for WoW and DL'd the patch proior to the expansion. I got ot tell you it was worth it soooooooo hard. The talent changes for Warriors has stripped them down and built them back up to awesome! Especiaslly prot. Well I have not played any other spec besides prot cos prot is sooooo kick ass!! I am never shifting out of definsive stance. It is that good. I am having a ball smacking peoples faces in with my shield and the damage.. oh the damage that I do now is sexy! Blizz stripped all the "high threat" out of all our moves and slapped in ass loads of damage. Revenge used to do 200-300 at lvl 70 before AP and the like. It now does 1000-1200 dmg and scales with AP alot more.

There was one other thing that I came across, fun. Yup Fun. I was back to my old glory days of doing dumb things and yelling at stuff and still killing things! It made up for any crap that I may of come across in the 2 odd years that I have been playing. The ammount of fun was great. I cannot wait to finsih exams check out Warhamemer and really see if it stands up to the changes that the new Expansion for WoW has bought.

Mmm excited about games and the playing there of. I hope your games are good and bring you joy or fun :)

Ruuha the Subtle. Prot and loving it.

mood: excited

Brain fail, rebooting from start, insert coffee error.

Bah feeling really crappy, uni is goiing really well, life is all over the shop but that is life, living and learning in opperation will be back with brain after monday night. BAH! Hellfire and profit (that is my new sware word, which I am very partial to)

Well once again its that time, time for me to move house. All I need is a place to move too. To that point does any one know of a place that needs some one to move to? That is about it atm.

I am hung over and pissed off. These things are not related. I am hung over because I was trying to win at yelling at a zombie poet night thingy.

I am pissed off because Mythic decided that giving away 1 freaken month free game time with out a game-card/subscription was a bad idea....wtf?!?! Enough of that.

so I got drunk, had fun yelled a lot. I call that a big fat good old fashioned night of fun. Maybe I can do more of these....

edit: life is good, I had a sandwich and coffee, head has stopped hurting, there looks to be a night of study and port drinking followed by a day of yard work and a night of bar work hooray for 20+hours of waking and work!!!
