Fumiu~! Hyper Panic!

Written on Wednesday 5 Oct 2005

Preparations for the Bunfight ticked along today, getting some things out of the way and giving us confidence. But in seven hours’ time, the real preparation will start. Two hours of setting up followed by six hours of event and an hour of cleaning up… Six hours in which there...

Too Much Money

Written on Tuesday 4 Oct 2005

Today, I spent too much money. However, I now have four new mangas, a Suikoden 4 toy, a belly full of Pizza Hut, and a mind full of really, really silly things. Life here is officially beyond fantastic. Also: You are CAROL VOLDEMORT! Who’s your Dary-verse alter-ego? brought to you...

Worrying

Written on Monday 3 Oct 2005

I just stumbled upon the phrase “Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn.” On the front page of Slashdot. The world went insane overnight, I think.

Tonight...

Written on Sunday 2 Oct 2005

Tonight, I will be mostly eating… Instant ramen. </jesse> I put this down to, uh, post-modernist irony? Something like that, anyway… Still, sometime in the next week or so I plan to cook some kind of uber roast dinner, so that should get the gods of culinary good taste back...

A Wish

Written on Sunday 2 Oct 2005

I’m here. I’m back. I’m home. So much to do, so much to say… If there is only one thing I do this year; only one thing I achieve, it will be this - I will indelibly etch every thought, every feeling, and every emotion that we experience together so...

Gravity

Written on Friday 30 Sep 2005

Already I’m feeling the irresistable pull… Tomorrow, I’m going home. I’m going to see friends again, and life will be full again after too many empty nine-‘til-fives, Mondays-to-Fridays. Each IM conversation, each ‘phone call, each text message, they all bring me closer. In only twelve hours, I’ll be up and...

As Above, So Below

Written on Wednesday 28 Sep 2005

The skies overhead are steel-grey and uniform, an almost perfect mirror to their concrete and tarmac cousins on the ground. Even the wind, blowing around me and through me and filling my lungs like ice, feels sleeting and grey. Car headlights, always on in the evenings now, reflect from puddles...

On the Genealogy of Videogames

Written on Tuesday 27 Sep 2005

Yet another day of high-velocity panic. Unit 01 is falling to pieces more and more rapidly, and it’s supposed to be delivered on Thursday… (People making Evangelion references will be shot. And posthumously applauded.) P.S. Someone needs to buy me this. And a new house to put it in. Cray...

So Yesterday,

Written on Monday 26 Sep 2005

I learnt two important things yesterday. Firstly, I learnt how to sew. Sort of, anyway. So that’s good! ^_^ Secondly, I learnt that whoever invented the hakama must have been a person who never, ever had to wash one. Such a pain! Glad I only have to do this four...

Sunshine and Mown Grass

Written on Saturday 24 Sep 2005

So today, it finally decided to be sunny again. My mission for today: Do something, anything, other than moping around the house. Mission successful! I managed to spend about seven hours at my Grandma’s, helping to sort out her garden. I still don’t really like gardening very much, but nevertheless...
