I spent the day playing piano until my fingers were too cold to play properly and then I shuffled off to do something to warm them up... and then headed back to the piano haha... I've been trying to avoid the computer, because I ought to do my homework first... but would you look at that... I'm bumming online AND YET, my homework is still sitting there untouched D: Haha I think I've given up on my chair, I'm just going to be sitting on my heater from now on..... too bad it doesn't have somewhere to put my feet... and it needs a back..... the only thing that's warm is my bum [not that that's a bad thing though XD]. Those lazy heater-designers should get together with sofa-designers one day and create generous sofa-esque chairs with heater systems running through them =) hehe so that we can snuggle in and be toasty all over =) AND, while they're at it, there should be a compartment on the side to hold a flask of hot chocolate (with a marshmallow on top XD) and a cold platform on the other side to put chocolates on. Coz you know, eats and drinks are especially tasty when they're at different temperatures =)

Ahhhh it's so hard to find Meuka....! I have to give one of pets Sneezles or Neoflu, which is bad enough, but I can't even figure out how to do it. All the help sites are telling me to try the Wheel of Excitement or Misfortune, buut when I tried, I just won 500NP from the WoExcitement [heh heh not that I'm complaining ^____^] ..........and then the WoMisfortune took ALL my cash >_____<...... Luckily though (and smartly), I stuffed most of it in the bank beforehand. Anyway, long story short, I don't think I'll be getting the Mission 4 Trophy any time soon =( and apparently Meuka is DEAD hard (as in try and battle me and your pets = DEAD). Like omg, besides having 75HP, he also does around 50HP damage.. EVERY ROUND. Gahh! Leehliah has like 48HP.......................... need to train! Need more codestones and dubloons :O And I need to find an Earth Faerie so I can get Burrow [haha no I still don't have it... gotta catch up with the rest of human civilisation.... everyone else already has both Burrow and Sink]. Oh, but I beat the Cave Chia xD!

"The home page advertises multiplayer game play and interaction with other Neopet owners, but at the beginning the options are very limited. An owner starts off with a measly 250 Neopoints and is encouraged to earn Neopoints by playing a variety of games or simply click and refresh the Money Tree. Only then can they have enough Neopoints to purchase 3,000 Neopoint items and weapons to engage in multiplayer battle dome games."

The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a professional. Scroll down for each answer. The questions are not that difficult. But don't scroll down UNTIL you have answered the question!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door.
This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Did you say, Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the door? Wrong Answer.

Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This question tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your previous actions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend... except one. Which animal does not attend?

Correct Answer: The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator.
You just put him in there. This tests your memory. Okay, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you stil have one more question to show your true abilities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it?

Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across.
Have you not been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting.
This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

According to Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all questions wrong, but many preschoolers got several correct answers. Anderson Consulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four-year-old.

Send this out to frustrate all of your smart friends.
PS: Just the fact that I sent it to you should make you feel good.

Yay new layout :] in my increasingly favourite colour, green. And my other favourite colours, purple and orange, which you can find in the SKITTLES sitting above, yum yum yum!! Haha what am I crapping on about I like all colours. Anyway, this layout is much more my kind of layout, and it's probably going to hog my LJ for a good long time. Am currently feeling much more productive than I have for the whole holidays, after spending the afternoon making a layout. PRODUCTIVE procrastination ^____^ whut a novel concept. I now realise that the main reason I can't get any homework done is coz there's a sense of obligation tied to it. Like, if no one wanted or expected me to finish my maths homework, I bet it'd get done straight away =D. Haha orr not.. maybe it's just coz homework is BORING

Oh, and guess what the current featuring Headline of my life is :D
..actually it deserves its own line =D
the iPod NANO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<black shape starts dancing around insanely to insane music>

Although if you think about it, you can't really dance around as a black shape if you want the nano to be seen, since it's black [soo much more chic than the white iPod, eh?] but the cords are still white, so I guess I can't really be a one-colour block silhouette at all oO.... ah...? ANYWAY, I'm finding that the 800mb [meant to be 1GB but oh well] of space that my iPod offers is incredibly limiting (in our 5GB/DVD world) and I'm looking for solutions to survive without iTunes - right now I'm using vPod which is compact and speedy, only thing is, it doesn't support uploading photos or other random files, other than music. Then again, who needs pictures :] and PodPlayer for some reason won't install itself onto my iPod drive ><

Anyway [omg 3:46 should go eat lunch] the point was <FLAGS DOWN HTML SMARTIES> I can't work out how to make the background of the textbox above this halfway/transparent, coz there's all this graffiti background stuff being blocked by it, and it's be cool if I could somehow adjust opacity. Yeah. Not that I'm holding my breath lol - hopefully I'll find the coding somewhere online, because apparently anything can be found through google if you look hard enough =P

Oscar met Slimey when they were both walking on a beautiful rainy day.
Slimey's parents are Dusty and Eartha.

While The Count counts forwards, the Countess (naturally) counts backwards.
A favorite counting object of The Count is his bats (Batty Bat, Grisha, Misha, Sasha, Tattiana).

One of Grover's many identities is "Super Grover." He is a fairly useless Superhero.
When Grover is a waiter, the name of the patron whose order he continually messes up is Fat Blue.
Grover's birthday is October 14, at which point he continues to be 4 years old.

Snuffleupagus is 7 feet high and 15 feet long.
His full name is Aloysius Snuffleupagus.
For the first 14 years, Snuffy was Big Bird's invisible imaginary friend. Since Big Bird got a lot of teasing on the show, it was decided to make Snuffleupagus become real.

The first thing Cookie Monster ate on Sesame Street was not a cookie. It was the letter "W", in a skit with Kermit.
The monster was designed in the late 60s for a Potato Chip commercial. His name was Arnold.
Cookie Monster is actually eating rice crackers most of the time.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alas, you are about to be marooned by yourself on an island.
Which of these things would you rather have a lot of when you arrive?
- Rice
- Hope
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You scored 39% Organization, 58% abstract, and 50% extroverted!

This test measured 3 variables.

First, this test measured how organized you are. Some muppets like Cookie Monster make big messes, while others like Bert are quite anal about things being clean.

Second, this test measured if you prefer a concrete or an abstract viewpoint. For the purposes of this test, concrete people are considered to gravitate more to mathematical and logical approaches, whereas abstract people are more the dreamers and artistic type.

Third, this test measured if you are more of an introvert or an extrovert. By definition, an introvert concentrates more on herself and an extrovert focuses more on others. In this test an introvert was somebody that either tends to spend more time alone or thinks more about herself.

You are somewhat organized, both concrete and abstract, and both introverted and extroverted.

I bet you didn't think you were Snuffleupagus. Let's find out why.

You are both somewhat organized. You have a good idea where you put things and you probably keep your place reasonably clean. You aren't totally obsessed with neatness though. Alloyius Snuffleupagus (and all Snuffleupagus') is not sloppy by nature, but he moves so incredibly slowly that it is impossible for him to be totally organized.

You both are about equally concrete and abstract thinkers. You have a good balance in your life. You know when to be logical at times, but you also aren't afraid to explore your dreams and desires... within limits of course. Snuffy generally has very basic interests, but he explores his abstract sensitive side when he plays his snuffleflute.

You both are somewhat introverted. Originally Snuffleupagus was very shy and was only Big Bird's invisible friend. However as he has aged he has started to build new friendships with new characters. Like Snuffy, you probably like to have some time to yourself. However, you do appreciate spending time with your friends, and you aren't scared of social situations.

Hooray! I have designed a webpage ^^. I am feeling most accomplished (and extremely sick. I think I've sneezed more than twenty times tonight, and each sneeze is starting to become fairly painful T_____T) I probably ought to ditch my fruitless attempt to finish my economics assignment, and start work again tomorrow. [sigh] The deadline that I imposed on myself has come to nothing! At least I can be glad that I started. And that the uber-procrastination motivated me to photoshop an image & design a page, hooray!

Ah thank goodness it's Saturday. I love Saturdays :]

I go to an all girls boarding school. Sometimes girls can be so tough on one another. I know this for a fact. We were in a physics lesson once, and we were learning about static electricity. We blew up balloons, rubbed them on our jumpers, did the experiment. No problem. Till someone accidentally popped their balloon on a pin. Then everyone started doing it. 14 balloons popped all at once. A girl couldn't take it, she just couldn't. She screamed and cried. We didn't know what was wrong. She really screamed. We then found out that she has a phobia of balloon popping. Then some girls did it more just to pest her. How awful, I didn't know what to do, so I punched those 2 girls. Then I got suspended. But I feel as if I did something good for that girl.

AN INTENSELY SORROWFUL POEM:

Thrice had I something written here
One was inspired, possessing nuance
The more recent wavered to a similar pattern
As this one doth sing.
But they one and all returned
To their original keeper
Cursed editing system, thou hast
Left a broken shell behind in thy dance of
Havoc.
