3 am

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 17:00:00 +0000

So it's 3 am and i can't seem to sleep, i have so many things to do that i keep running it over and over in my head and it is keeping me awake. I was told that at times like this all you need is to take a deep breath and get enough sleep but at the moment that seems really difficult.

I don't feel tired....

I had maybe 2 hours sleep at the most so far. When i try all i can think about is what i am meant to do.

Over and over and over

Its so repetitive, yet i seem to find some new way of looking at things or a new idea every time i start going to sleep

So what do you think?

Should i try to get back to sleep?

I'm Back

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 23:03:00 +0000

Did you miss me??

you may have noticed my absence or my gradual decay in internet use over the past month followed by my absence from the internet....

Well Guess What??

I'M BACK!!!! :D :D

What i was doing will forever remain Super Secret Squirrel amongst those who actually know me in the real world. The fact of the matter is that i am back and i am now not gowing anywhere for a while so i shall engage with you. Over the coming weeks i would really appreciate comments, just to let me know you read and so i can get to know you a little better :D :D

That way i can give shoutouts, like:

Munchkinhugs,

heya sweetheart, hows it been? planning on coming online anytime soon?

You see muchkinghugs is one of the "most awesomest peoples" i have ever met. and whenever i get the chance i will tell people about her works (not today though :P , you can look for it yourself if you want)

i would go into a bit of depth but for now i must go and tend to all my other bits and pieces

lookim yu :D

2 Out of 4 and an Overseas Trip to Go

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 00:02:00 +0000

So Today is my first day off in what is to be another exiting examanitation period. With 2 down and 2 to go spirits are high amongst the "study" camp tonight, with little to no work being done. All in preparation for the anual "Cram Til Exam" night, and this season is of to a great start.

Thats what i would sound like if i was to be a commentator for my own life

As i mentioned above it is exam time and i am very busy but i am taking today off because it is sunday and i don't have my next exam until thursday. Once i have finished exams i will be taking a trip to Papua New Guinea so there will be a preiod where i will have no internet presence....

But !!

I shall be back on the 19th of july, back in time to begin studies again but more importantly spend time with you guys

it's unfortunate that it has been a while, because i have been busy. When i get back you won't know what hit you, things like Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Blogcatlog and anyother places i Frequent will be totalled and you guys will have the chance to have input into what sort of things i do, and seeing as when i get back from PNG i will have ample time i wouldn't mind colaborating on a few things.

Soundspasms (though on hiatus now) will be up and running full swing with i hope enough time to bring you a few songs a week, If you guys want to read whati have done already i have written up a random blog post button that you can just click and it will take to a random post ^^.

Soundspasms

so now for the rest of the day you guys can comew join me at Blogcatalog while i put together some tracks and make a mash up and put it into my Dance mix

'Til we meet again

Stressed

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Mon, 18 May 2009 09:58:00 +0000

You don't know stressed until you have been called up by a frustrated truckie wanting to see you at 6:30 in the morning.

You see i am trying to ship donated goods out of the country

and shipping companies are used to dealing with other companies not a uni student with no shipping experience, now over many conversations with the reps at the shipping company they have become very lenient. Truckies, on the other hand, whom i have met once, was a little frustrated that it was taking me too long to do the paper work.

so he said bring it with me in the morning... in the mean time they have said it was going to rain and if it does my containers can't be picked up

So i have to wait until the morning

Stressed

Waiting

Stressed and Waiting

Sir Almo

Beds

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sat, 16 May 2009 00:28:00 +0000

I spent the last 2 days at @hot_chocers (from twitter) house, and i miss it.. it doesn't feel the same in my bed anymore

Yes its nice and warm...

Yes its comfortable...

but i missed having her next to me, i have never done this before. i have always come back to my bed and it has been awesome, so then what changed??

until thursday night i had not seen her for 2 and a half weeks so it was a very, special occasion for us i guess but we were both tired from studies and work and things so we ended up getting some canned soup for dinner....

YAY how romantic :P

but some thing kept us together, i didn't go and do the things i needed to do the next day and she did the same... we just hung out in bed all day and did the same the next day until about miday

i had to work XD (stupid work)

so now i am here at home... alone waiting for work to begin so that i can earn enough money to cover the clothes that i bought the other day

when will i see her again?

hopefully tomorrow, cause i'm going to strangle something if i can see her for another week or 2, because i will be going to PNG soon for 3 weeks and in that time i will have no access to her at all :(

we'll see

Sir Almo

It's so Early

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 03 May 2009 23:07:00 +0000

Today the plan is to go to uni and:

do an assignment,
email a few people,
listen to the twilight audio book
twitter
make a video for youtube

now making a video has been on my to do list for a while, but i need suggestions ... otherwise i will ramble

So tell me what you think should be in my video??

Sir Almo

Sideways / Sidewards

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 03 May 2009 07:46:00 +0000

So i have been told off about my use of sidewards....

to me... if you use towards, forewards, backwards

then... we should use sidewards

But!!!!!

i have been told off... because in english apparently their is no continuity / syncronicity in the words we use.

Apparently it is

Sideways

now that seems silly to me...

Sir Almo

I Love You

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 03 May 2009 07:43:00 +0000

It had to be said at somepoint and it was said this weekend.

i was very very happy ....

But i found out that because of our conversation (that i mentioned a couple of posts back) she didn't want to say it first.

She is being really shy about it all and because of it i am a little reluctant to say it

Which is a little awkward

Sir Almo and the City

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 06:15:00 +0000

Isn't it interesting that you can see something that changes your perspective on so many things, but you will never actually use it to implement change. I mean everyday you take in so many Bits of information waiting to be processed. And we will sit around and do menial things to pass the time, but what if we were to pay attention to everything that was happening around us, the other day i was on the bus on the way home and i pulled out a book and wrote down things that i noticed around me. on a 15 min journey i had written 2 pages of notes on observations of happenings around me. Now it doesn't take a genious to know that that is a lot of information of minor details over a short period of time, and it definately doesn't take much to tweek it to tell a story.

Yesterday i was watching sex and the city and and i noticed the entire idea of the series was that the problems carie was having in real life, were going into her articles followed by a question. This got me thinking, could someone really do so much reflection in their life to be able to analyse single events in their life and define them to one question??

Bringing life down down to its bare essentials like on the bus gives you information that you would have otherwise missed, analysing events and situations to developan understanding of why and how things happen are another thing, but with the time we have can we do this?

The select few who i would say would have had to be poor at one point or had a lot of free time on their hands.

I, for one dont...

which is unfortunate, but i got over it

So then what am i to do??

What am i to do??

Sir Almo

Hmm..... So....

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 01:04:00 +0000

So i haven't been around, probably due to the fact that that my project and twitter are taking all of my time

i would like to say that my girlfriend is taking up all my time but thats just not true... unless she is online... in which case the majority of my attention goes to her

i am "holidays" at the moment, and i am very tired, but everything seems to be very inconviniently timed at the moment

but thats ok i have chocolate :D :D

we had a nice lunch yesterday for easter sunday, we ate chicken rice and salad........ t'was awesom :D

nothing like the food you grew up with ^^

i got @mumchkinhugs into twitter, and now she is as addicted as i am

but at the same time i seem to be gettin more readers for this blog...

i'm not sure why... i think soundspasms is sooo much better

maybe people just like the idea that they can see what i am thinking... is it really that interesting??? maybe i should leave it at that tell me what you think??

Busy Times (CTU #3)

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 03:25:00 +0000

so it has been insane lately and i have been neglecting my blogs.

for that i am sorry

but i am here now for a few minutes ^^

i have been studying and spending heaps of time with my girlfriend.

i have been on twitter a lot though

my project is going well and i have started a new one, but the first one is almost over ^^ . shipping is going to happen this week which is awesome.

so yes lots of stuff to do... i shall be back soon

but i need to get back

so i'll catch you guys later ;)

She knows about us

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 12:55:00 +0000

I told her about this blog today, and she was cool with it, infact she thought it was healthy. but i don't think she is going to read it much, i think she will just forget

anyways i showed her SoundSpasms! and she thought i was pretty cool. so i gave her the link and she might read it i don't care... either way i'm going to keep writing.

have you guys read it??

So.... i like you ^^

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 12:56:00 +0000

I had that conversation i was talking about, and it was a little awkward.

She understood though, which was good, i think it makes it easier for me to say when i actually want to say it... i have already said it so it has now been said and i think it makes me lighter. I don't have this thing of what is he going to think when i say it, :D :D

i don't know ^^

the other day it was raining so we spent the whole day in a coffee shop talking

BAHAHAHAHA!!! i can't stop talking about her... i would say to regular readers you might want to expect more

I do have one thing though

she is a "career girl" and wants to do a whole heap of stuff before "life" things happen and i'm not so idealistic and i'm more sparatic and whimsical.

but you should hear her laugh :D , i like it... it makes me smile

alright now i was supposed to talk about some other things but i guess i'll leave it at that Because its getting late

if you are a new reader then you'll probably want to read through some old posts to see the contrast in what i'm writing and you will get to know me that little bit better ;)

I can't believe it

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 00:03:00 +0000

I can't believe i said "i love you"

>.<

i was just in the car and she was leaving and it just came out

i think it was a force of habit more than anything else

and you should have seen the look on her face >.<

she hopes it was a slip up, i hope it was a slip up

i hope this will all be good... but i can see this is going to lead to some in depth conversation

Just A Quiet One

formerfurface@hotmail.com (Sir Almo) — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 00:36:00 +0000

why??

why is it that when we say something like "going to get a couple of drinks" or "going to have a quiet one" does it end up like this.....????

time after time, without fail.....

at the moment it is 10:38am and i have now been awake for an hour... i got home at 5:10am this morning and stumbled around for about 30mins while i sorted things out.

i don't think the that is much sleep... do you??

maybe??

i don't know, because i feel fine at the moment.

this all started after gym yesterday, i was driving past a friends house and called him up to play soccer, he didn't answer so i drove home and just as i pull up he returns my call.... XD

hey come out for a kick around

and so i did, we got talking about all this stuff, and out come the famous lines "why don't we go out for a few drinks??" now this is usually a good line but it was shortly followed by "but it won't be too late, im only out for a quiet one"... so with the standard set for the night off we went

walking down the street and out of the bus stop, pops a friend... but it took a few seconds for it to sink in, and we did the whole double take thing, it was funny you had to be there. So after a short chat she decided to tag along, and she offered to get us cheap drinks at her place of work. and so we went :D :D , one of her work mates thought it would be a good idea to spike her drink with a little bit of something. XD

next stop was the valley.... time to hit the clubs... so we are running around like idiots i'm trying to find my friends and look after our tag-along because she was waiting for friends.....

and they arrived... only 2 hrs after they said they would but that was ok because they were here now it was all good. an hour later those guys smokebomb on us XD . at this point we realised the drink was spiked.... now we couldn't leave her alone, she was able to look after her self because it wasn't that much but it was enough for us not to trust that she would be alright...

so at 4:00am after visiting a few more clubs i decided it was time to go. so we went and got macca's and moved on to catch a cab and i got home sometime later

so now after all that i am going to study now with a mate on the other side of town, cause thats what mates do. but there is another party tonight

no drinking, and definitely an early night because i have to go to uni tomorrow

So... tonight it's just going to be a quiet one ;)
