Yoshies and Journals and Words, Oh My!

Today I move onto campus. Wish me luck, whoever the fuck reads this journal!

I'm off to Germany! See y'all there if you're going~

Right, so since my Wii got pinched, I went out and bought myself a brand spanking new Xbox 360! It feels weird - I've always been a Nintendo gamer since my N64, and it's like I've betrayed my people in some way o_o But I'm enjoying it! I finally got the Orange Box, and it's as brilliant as everyone says - I already suck at TF2! PM me if you want my gamertag and suchlike.
Also, on Tuesday night I went with my dad to see OMD in concert. China Crisis were supporting, and I'd never heard anything by either band, except for OMD's 'Enola Gay', but they both put on a most excellent show! I've been downloading the entire OMD discography as a result.
And this evening we went to see a play! 'Waste', a political drama thingy that was very, very boring in the first half, then only mildly boring in the second. Most of it went straight over my head.
And in showbiz news, Josh Freese will be leaving NIN after this leg of the current tour. I'm happy I got to see him performing with them back in August; he's a fucking excellent drummer. Makes nifty films, too.

My sister told me a few hours ago that she would be having a few friends over. It turned into one of those house-trashing parties you read about in tabloids: fifty drunken people, and me holed up in my room, apart from the occasional skirmish out to try and get people to leave. Thankfully the remaining few are doing cleanup, but the damage tally is: One door kicked in, one ballister broken, the wall under my desk kicked in (?!?!?) and my Wii, along with all the games, gone. I am this close to a nervous breakdown.

UPDATE: Two laptops, some iPod speakers and some other things are missing too. Yaaay.

Finally my A-levels are over...and so my schooling is over! OVER! AHAHAHAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I finished the last exam, Greek Comprehension, at 2:50 today. And now, officially, I'm on my gap year! FUCKING YAY! Plus, I'm seeing Radiohead tomorrow night, which should be uber. And now hopefully I'll be non-procrastinating enough to actually update my journal(s)...well, I might as well.

As of Thursday. I feel special. And also ill.

Blimey, I'm messed up O_O


My Personality

Neuroticism	100
Extraversion	3
Openness to Experience	75
Agreeableness	62
Conscientiousness	1

You don't usually get angry too easily but some things can annoy you, however you experience panic, confusion, and helplessness when under pressure or stress. You get overwhelmed by too much noise and commotion and do not like thrill-seeking activities. You prefer familiar routines and for things to stay the same. You can tend to feel uncomfortable with change. You do not like to claim that you are better than other people, and generally shy from talking yourself up, however you believe that a certain amount of deception in social relationships is necessary. You are guarded in new relationships and less willing to openly reveal the whole truth about yourself. You are not an overly cautious person. You will think about alternatives and consequences but make up your mind fairly quickly.

I saw Mindless Self Indulgence at the Astoria last night. It was brilliant! They played a bunch of new songs, and...yeah. I'm bad at this whole journal thing, but if you haven't already, check out MSI. Oh, and Robots In Disguise, who supported and were also uber.

Ahh, catharsis.

This is a pretty interesting article comparing Calvin and Hobbes to Fight Club...well, more than comparing. Worth a read if you're a fan of both, and don't mind massive spoilers.

Read them both, and take it all in.

Holiday greetings to everyone. Have a great time, eat lots, give and get lots, and generally enjoy yourselves.

It was my first con evar. It was glorious. I had an excellent time, met loads of cool people, got to perform a little myself (for which I am deeply sorry) and generally have fun! Huge thanks to everyone involved, especially Rapido and FoxB for organising everything. Hope to see y'all next year!

And stuff.

...I wish my life were more interesting.

I went to see MSI in concert on Thursday evening. It was fantastic. That's about it.

Edinburgh Festival at the weekend, NIN last night...Wow, my last week was just FUN!
How was yours?

...the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for the weekend!
...see NIN in Wolverhampton on the 30th!
...RBW!

Is anyone else?

Oh, and Rammstein's 'Küss Mich' is one of the best songs about a nymphomaniac I've heard.

Tonsilitis.

CURSE YOU BENJI! *Shakefist*

I need some ice cream.

Actually, it's not too bad. I have a great room (albeit up many, MANY flights of stairs) and the area seems nice...I saw Transformers the other day, it was awesome. Also, I got Pokémon Pearl! Yeah. Not really much to say.
