When I was in primary school I was a gun at maths. Could have told you my times tables backwards. Then high school came along and all the maths I was good at was handled on a calculator. I only stopped failing senior school maths when I gave up the notion of learning anything, and just programed every formula and it's application into my calculator....

I don't have pets, I have a plant. It's a white rose bush and a vigilant thing too. It's survived level 6 water restrictions and a neglectful owner. This week it's had its first rose in bloom for months, until this morning anyway.
I hope whoever picked it gave it to somebody they cherish, or felt their own worth through it. I'd like to think...

I hope so too. On the other hand, it's a little heartless to come and nick the single rose on someone else's bush...
Well, I saw the Dark Knight
while sipping a Long Island Ice Tea
and later a Corona
and the universe did not end:
there is more awesomeness to be had.
Life is a beautiful and precious possession for which I am thoroughly grateful.

I've been pretty lucky with tips so far at my new job, come home with 10-15 bucks each night. Tonight I finished early so they hadn't been divided yet but I did discover that a jewel in my back pocket had survived the wash. It's a fairy tale I found last week written over a 'how to play KENO' card. It sounded like something one...

Good to see you got into SGAU! I must admit... I did pimp you out a little bit
Hows things? I see you got the job... Very awesome

Monday night I left home to buy dinner and came home with flowers.
Last night I watched a western movie and played a sci-fi game.
Tonight I'm putting together an argument for my lecturer that comics and graphic novels are a legitimate form of writing and something I should be able to use as my final piece of assessment before graduating at the end of...

glad to know that I'm not the only person that Batman has made an influence on
I think that's a legit argument. There are A LOT of graphic novels that tell amazing stories that wouldn't be half as interesting if it weren't for the illustrations.

Sorry to do another woe-is-me post but the girl who broke up with me about a month ago just called to inform me that we're not friends. I don't really want to dwell on this as I had a nice night in with tea, writing and drawing in mind, and I plan to stick with that and just get my current fear and confusion of...

Hey, sorry to hear about the ex- thing. You never know, she may come around. My ex- and I have been on-again off-again friends since we split two years ago... /solace.
I'd like to pump you for details about your Dark Knight @ Gold Class plans, as I'm considering doing the same with a group of friends. How much were the tix? When are you going? Where? What is availability like?

lexiphanic:
Yes! What he said ^^ about Gold Class Dark Knight tickets! Tell Rook all about it. AAAaaalll about it!
As for the ex --- it can take months for it to settle down. My ex and I had a very strained relationship for several months. It's only been in the past week or so that we've settled down a bit. Now she's one of my dearest and closest friends.
Rumour has it you've met ponderch3rry for coffee or lunch or something, yes? I've been planning to do the same for a while but I'm a slack bugger. Planning to do it this week though if you're free. Send me a PM.

Jehovah's witnesses came today, I thought they were just an urban myth. I tried to be as nice about it as possible after knocking their book back.
"Are you a spiritual person at all?"
"Yes."
"Right, what do you believe in?"
"I try not to. The word believe sort of says that I think it will do the work for me."
I'd recount the rest...

Hahaha I was hoping someone would notice the cow chimney! My hat is off to you, sir.
I give the Jehovah's Witnesses 1 chance each year to convince me. I've been doing this for probably about 8 or 9 years... so far they've all failed. They're never prepared for someone to start a serious intellectual discussion. Specially when they're sending 18 and 19 year olds to the door who have 1 or 2 passaged of the bible memorised and a little pamphlet.
Good luck with the new job.

I finished assessment on Friday and felt as though a creative block had been forcibly removed, consequently I wrote and drew myself into a severe case of writer's cramp. By the time I'd finished colouring this portrait of Harley Quinn (based on RizzoFord) I felt as though my two little fingers would drop off if I picked up a pen again.

Hey bud, ponderch3rry is fighting for you to get into SGAU and suggested we come and say hai! I must say, based on your profile and such I can't see why you've been rejected.
Always happy to see more decent Brisbanites so I'm jumping on the bandwagon.

My kettle always sings louder in the small hours of morning. I think it knows that it's purpose is to keep me awake. Diligent and dutiful like a red tin soldier, it does its job with a hiss and a shout.
An exam and a few hundred words away from being finished for another semester, I could probably get away with a little sleep, but...

The wall is in the Valley, in a bit of an alley-way near the Brunswick Street traino... It was so random and related so perfectly to my mind set at the time.
I heart your finger painting... One of my good friends has a similar, yet more violent, style.
Don't we still need to go for coffee?

Yeah totally, I would *kill* for that computer.

Every so often I go out on a limb and end up remembering exactly why I don't explain my tattoos to randoms.
Me: "Well, what is it to you?"
Random drunk: "A Rose amongst some typical tribal shit."
"Ok, but why is it a rose? Why a red rose? why is it on my right forearm? Why are all the thorns growing towards it while...

Good luck with the comic-ing! Post a link or something if you have any online.
Will we get to read it?
I could personify your corrupt detective like nobody's business!
And I think the work you're looking for might be 'handler'...
