The country seems boring

I don’t know if I would like to live in the country. I think I would not necessarily enjoy how there really isn’t very much to do. People who have grown up in the united kingdom seem to enjoy it even so. But they again, those people like my mum always seem to manage a means to leave the country and transfer to the city so I suppose they can’t love it all that much really. It really is nice for a holiday, don’t get me wrong. It’s always quite beautiful and I enjoy green rolling hills and idyllic scenery. I would still manage to play sport but it would probably must be footy. If you wanted to play a wonderful sport like Volleyball I would imagine it becomes so much harder because it’s the united states, and there are not that numerous people who live there. What this means is you would often have to operate a vehicle great distances to attend different trainings and tournaments which normally would annoy me.

One of the bigger shocks I got was though, that when I is at Switzerland we stayed with a lovely lady in a big house. To my surprise though, half way during our time there I realised we were in fact living in a very country town. It didn’t occur to me at that time when we were living there for a long time but I did truly enjoy being in that small town environment. I think due to lacking space in Europe there isn’t lots of spare countryside so there are a variety of small towns.

Switzerland is lovely

A place I wouldn’t like to live could be Poland. It seems that it is constantly cold, snowing raining and overall not a whole lot of of a nice place to reside in. I feel sorry for of which country as whole though given that they have copped it from many different countries through the years. An example of that could be from Germany in the minute world war. Poland I think has not really recovered from that sad tragic event. I have been in a town called Myslowice plus it was quite depressing. It was a compact town with a big cemetery, bullet hole ridden wales, grey slimy sad buildigns which the inhabitants were equally sad and run down. On top of the true place itself though, I think the next thunderstorm wouldn’t help the overall circumstances either.

Switzerland however had beautiful buildings along with a wonderful countryside with picturesque mountain ranges whichever way you seemed. Again though the weather I think after a few years would get me down. We have never been in a European winter but I might imagine it wouldn’t be that much fun. Summer time how ever is a lot of fun in Europe. I think that I can get through a terrible winter but I don’t think I might enjoy it all that a lot. Once I got over the really cosy pubs and snow I think I would be a bit bored. I would like to go to the snow though however. I think I would really enjoy snowboarding however as long as I wouldn’t get injured.

Kids Parties


I can’t believe how much fun childhood parties were in primary school. From the very moment you received the invitation you knew that an absolutely massive and extremely fun event was going to take place.

My personal favourite kid’s parties were ones at Tim zone. You got to play as many free games as you wanted to and it was so much fun! Usually when I was with mum and dad I was only allowed to play one or two games at most. It was so rare and genuinely magnificent when there was a situation, like at a party where I could play unlimited games. I truly loved these parties. My favourite games to play were the machine gun game and Virtual Cop 2. Second to these I really enjoyed playing metal slug as well as Point Blank.

I also fondly remember ten pin bowling parties. These were always fun because I am a competitive person and half way through the games I would usually get the hang of it and be able to do pretty well. I also remember the food was incredibly tasty at these parties. I particularly enjoyed the hot dogs at these parties.

M.C. Donald’s parties were strange. I remember thinking that because McDonalds is a massive franchise that their parties should also be bigger than everyone else’s. I didn’t particularly like McDonald’s food or drink so I suppose you could say there wasn’t all that much point to me going to those parties. Of course there was – the lolly bags!

Pasta tastes good but its not great for you.

One food that I adore when I was a kid which i have decided that I don’t enjoy know is wheat pasta. While I still take pleasure in the taste of really nice pasta at a restaurant I don’t really have fun with this because I know that I am going to feel quite sluggish and slow straight when i eat it. I can feel it serving not very much nutrition to my system which usually doesn’t feel great. I emphasised wheat pasta because I still really enjoy corn pasta and that doesn’t help make me feel sick afterwards.

There are a lot of things that I craved when I was a young boy that I do not hunger for now. Lollies from a milk bar used to be something that I really looked forward to that you wouldn’t believe. Now a great deal of those cheap chemical filled lollies We would now not enjoy.

I also used to enjoy cheese when I was a young boy. I used to love stumbling out of bed early in Adelaide when we visited our grandparents and so i could make myself white breads sandwiches with big slabs of cheese and ham inside them. I used to love them much that Omi would then awaken and make me breakfast which could usually consist of a dairy products jaffle. I hope Omi is ok come to think of it. I hope she’s not too scared or lonely throughout her retirement home. I truly wish which i showed her more love and helped her more after i could. I suppose that’s something I could learn from and guarantee that I help and be more grateful to people who truly do help me.

Achilles pain



About ten months ago I finished my first season of long distance running. Nothing professional but my ambitions have been serious enough that I got myself a trainings plan and actually felt bad if I decided to be too lazy today and did not train. There was no particular goal either, other than try and run a few fun runs. Once I had finished my last 14 km run for the season, I knew I would want to run a half marathon come next year. But my Achilles almost stopped me completely from pursuing it. For months I was unable to run. 

I tried to rest and it seemed to help, but as soon as I went for a slow easy short jog, I ended up with sore Achilles again. I stretched, but mostly massaged it. It did not help. It was simply not enough and did not treat the cause of the problem, as I found out in my first body assessment session with a clinical Pilates Therapist. My legs were not strong enough keeping up with my amazing running abilities. I was running faster for longer without giving my legs more strength. I had very bad balance in my feet, which when you put your body through exhausting runs, copped the impact of instable foot positions on hard surface. My muscles from my lower back all the way down to my feet were rather tied, because I did not stretch enough before or after my runs. All these rather obvious problems were treated and gone within 10 weeks. 

With consistent and targeted stretching, strengthening and massaging, my sore Achilles had gone. Within 8 months I was able to prepare for my first half marathon and managed to run it! Make sure to look after your greatest asset when you are into running, stretch, strengthen and massage it often and consider clinical Pilates and remedial massages.

Why is ice cream so good?

Snow cream cravings sent me available tonight for a walk downtown to the petrol station. I knew they have got all those awesome ice cream using a stick. Don’t like the ice cream in the cone. Not sure why. Regardless, I walked down that street after dark and cold. Yes, it is winter, almost spring, but still winter.

Not at all the type of weather you want ice product, although the yummy spring oxygen blowing around my nose, did somewhat supported my urge to enjoy ice cream. Ok, now I bought myself a great almond magnum and every time I am about to possess a magnum, I am anticipating that first bite through to the crackling chocolate into your soft vanilla ice cream. We are in heaven! So I was walking at home with my almond magnum during my hand, indulging. Crossing a route, a guy passed me and watched me eat my glaciers cream. I could tell by means of his look he was very jealous of my ice product.

Thinking, how happy I am at this time, I smiled and kept ingesting. I didn’t need much more before jumping from the street like a little gal with two cute pony tales as well as a flowery dress on. Alright, dealing with it in a moment, because the reason I am writing all this kind of, well it is because I tried to do something good while having to provide in to my ice product cravings. I walked 15 minutes a good way to the patrol station instead of taking the automobile. At least that way I managed to get moving. That should not be known as an excuse to eat glaciers cream or any sweets for instance, but at least it is forces you to feel a little less guilt ridden eating bad, especially at night time.

Oh lets have a coffee

I don’t know why individuals are obsessed with coffee these nights. I think it annoys myself, but I don’t know precisely why it annoys me. Perhaps the coffee revolution just annoys me because I don’t like coffee much. Perhaps it annoys me because healthy people still drink espresso while preaching how good it can be for them and how the remaining of their lives are thus healthy. Whats in coffee? Definitely its just caffeine, milk, as well as sugar.

But im sure if most of us were out at breakfast which can be possibly growing on me because ive started liking omelets but before I haven’t really understood why people have enjoyed paying plenty of cash for bloody toast and sausage surprise bags, if I was sitting there and I had a mars bar instead of the coffee i'm sure they would examine me like what are people doing? That’s so irresponsible! Imagine the children! And how obese everyone is because of people like me eating snickers irresponsibly in front of children and not responsibly drinking coffee in front of children like they would end up being doing. ITS EXACTLY THE SIMILAR BLOODY THING!!!! They even top off coffee with bloody chocolate sprinkles. Its even a similar bloody thing as ice lotion! Perhaps its even worse when you get addicted to caffeine.

I have no problem having people drinking coffee but providing they realize that eating candy with your breakfast is very much like doing exactly the same soft thing and all coffee will be, is a loop hole and reason for eating tasty treats each day.

Copic markers


I don’t know why I didn’t start using copic textas earlier in my design drawing scribble career. If I did half the colouring in I did as a kid with the copic markers I would have been like the best drawer in my class room. I suppose the reason I didn’t use copic markers was because they were really expensive which is slightly dissapionting but I remember I had to by them from the store at Swinburne university which was on chapel street in prahan which I always felt was a terrible way to spell that word. I also believe that a lot of words in the English language are thoroughly spelt incorrectly. I think that it would be an extremely hard language to learn because like university, nothing makes sense. 

There are so many stupid words that are spelt even more stupidly. I mean phonics is what the study of the English language is and the way it sounds and the very word phonic is spelt with a p and a h which individualy sounds like what an f is supposed to sound like so there is no logical progression for a p and h to sound like an f which is absolutely ridiculous. I'm sure there a lot of other words that sound like this as well and I've thought of heaps in the past when I have had this conversation with other people but right now for whatever reason because I have just had food I cannot for the life me think of anything.

Damn university

The ultimate way to get through university is to be sure you do not attend college or university. The only thing attending university will do will turn you into a jaded pawn wallowing absolutely need misery which will result in you awakening every single morning and looking within the mirror questioning not only why you might be attending and giving money for the single greatest scam in a history of the world, but all your existence and purpose in life!

But unfortunately the way society is defined up people have become used to needing a bit of paper which says you attended university even though 90% of the course was an entire and utter waste of moment. So we find ourselves confusing in a constant battle of how much do I need to do to pass every topic and walk the constant fine line between failing an interest and passing a subject. The trick is so that you can pass a subject without retaining from any of the information as it will only interfere in real life jobs. Yes, I know precisely what your thinking, there are several jos/university courses that university is relelveant for, medicine would be one of these. But, Every single other course could be condensed into quite literally half the time.

So the trick to receiving through university is to learn what you should for your specific area of work which in turn comes down to perhaps 1 from every 4 subjects per semester and as for all of those other subjects pass them, but realize when you've got a deep desire to attempt to get a good mark therefore you don’t know why, DON’T. For they are those extra subjects your university has put there to make your one year course right three year course. Ps receive degrees!

Into the Dead



Into the dead is the greatest iphone game ever and I haven’t decided whether to tell you or not why. I haven’t decided whether I want to play it right now instead of writing about it. I really want to but I think I will write about it instead such is my love for this great game. The key to any great game that is specifically designed for a phone is that they know one of the biggest reasons for playing games on your phone is either to procrastinate at work or play on the toilet. The key to procrastinating is finding jobs that may only take a couple of minutes so you feel that you will be back to the work you are doing in no time. If you had to set up a console, you know you are locked in for at least half an hour, it’s not a quick 2 minute game. If it was a quick two minute game they probably copied the game from a phone styled game anyway but I digress. I was procrastinating in the last few sentences because I couldn’t be bothered about writing what I was meant to be writing about because I love procrastinating.

Into the dead is great because it tests your skill and reflexes in terms of dodging and shooting zombies. Shooting zombies is not actually hard because you just have to tap the screen to shoot, which means the skill lies in dodging the zombies. But if you pick up a gun you can just plow right through them. Which really annoys them. Do the zombies have feelings, can they really be dead when I kill them in the game or are they just lying there asleep? I don’t know, perhaps they are just tired and having asleep, or perhaps me shooting at them hurts their feeling and they are sad because they don’t know why I am shooting at them. Perhaps that’s what the creators of the game have aimed for, wanting the players to spare a thought for zombies in video games because lets face it, nobody gives the much love or thought.

My favourite color



My favorite color when I was a kid growing up was black. But then I went to school and ended up having an argument with my art teacher in which she proceeded to tell me that black wasn’t a color. I then proceeded to tell her that she was completely wrong because how could black not be a color? If it was not a color then how come I could see it? Wouldn’t everything you see be classified as color.

Black was in so many of my favorite things! Collingwood, computers, cows, my favorite cars, my favorite socks, alcohol, drink bottles, my list could invariably go on literally all day but that would be a waste of time, probably roughly the same waste of time it would be if you were reading this article right now. But research shows once someone says that something is a waste of time to read, people almost every time will continue to read the article because they feel like the author of the article really understands what the reader is going through and sympathizes with the reader because even the author realize what he is writing is complete and utter crap…or is it crap? Who knows you will most likely have to read on because in roughly two to three sentences you will find out the conclusion to my life long battle with the art fraternity regarding my obsession with what I still refer to the color black.

So in conclusion, I have been told by many proffers whose phd’s revolved around researching whether black was actually a color, they have said that black is the absence of color and therefore is not a color. But they are wrong. Because I said so. And my grammar is heaps good.
