Dissertation Volunteers Wanted!

Read the title..

The fact that you are actually reading this means that you have willingly signed up to be a proof reader for my dissertation/project/lame-joke-book.. buahahaha
If I had the brains and talent to figure out how to track visitors then I can hunt you down and take you out and tie you to a chair and put toothpicks to hold the eyes open while you read my work.

But I have no idea how to track visitors.

So you can count your lucky stars and just send me chocolates to tide me through.
No, the chocolate profiteroles I have in the fridge are NOT enough!

My emergency chocolate is kept for emergencies only...
So is my in-case-of-emergency emergency chocolate.

Sunshine Doesn't Melt Me

Cairngorm Mountain, Balmoral

Contrary to popular belief, Scotland doesn't rain all the time.

I wonder where you got that idea from?

In fact, it is so sunny, you could sit outside and go a lovely bright red colour that will slowly fade to a brown tan...
Who needs to go South for sunshine when there is just so much here?
And since we are up on the mountains, the sun should be stronger no?

Ed Note:

This eternal sunshine thing is called the Fohn Effect, which is a weather system that makes Royal Deeside all the more appealing to tourists...

Broken Braces

There are some people who claim I am vainer than most...
I wonder why... Considering that my fashion sense is dire, my jeans 'hanging off my bum' as my mum puts it, and my t-shirts are an average size of age 8.
But I am attempting to be slightly more dignified and er, decently dressed...I mean, how else will old unsuspecting men with wads of money be conned by a scruffy 22-year-old? Buahahah..

I think it's just the braces. Just because i want Porcelain ones. I guess I'm hoping they won't show up too much in the graduation photos... My mum didn't know that metal ones were an option until er two days ago *hehe*

However, my orthordontist must hate me, even though he smiles at me nicely every time, and helps me with my jacket. I mean, who else has broken their braces, not just the wire but the whole bracket in a week? I have also successfully broken something again on Thursday. I am trying to hold off calling him as I am sure he will ask how I managed to do it again.

For the curious:
I broke it the first time eating candied almonds.
The second one I was eating a fishball... =.=

What? Did you expect me to eat oat porridge for the next 18 months?!!

Horrah

I have finally succumbed to the temptations of blogging...
This blog is going to be all about myself highly intellectual and we shall review very interesting and relevant topics ranging from sheep cloning to where to buy pretty and shinny things.

Feel free to lose your sense of logic and wallow in Denial.
Ed Note:
I wanted to post this up on some day that had some meaning ie; April Fool's... My Birthday.. the Fifth Sibling's Birthday... and then i checked the calendar.. and Friday the 13th was coming up! yay! valid reason/excuse to not work...
But then i started to worry*braincells working* what if... what IF..
Friday the 13th was really as inauspicious as they make it...
What if because i started to blog then, i break a leg, don't get a job, don't get enough participants in my dissertation(that is already true anyways) or even *shock horror* fail exams..
Who have i to blame then?
Imagine:
Mom : Why did you only get 60% for your March Exam? What was the highest score?
Me : 72% (looking sheepish)
Mom : Why didn't you get 73%?
Me : Well, i was nervous...
Mom : Really...?? *stare*
Me : *smacks head* i know i know.. MUST be because i started blogging on Friday the 13th!!
So... No risks..
