Halleluiah, my exams are over! (Did ayone else pronounce halleluiah as it is spelt when they were younger and therefore offend much of the Pakistani community? Umm, me neither.)
Download 1 Giant Leap's My Culture. You'll thank me.
A man speaks frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant, and her contractions are only two minutes apart!"
"Is this her first child?" the doctor queries.
"No, you idiot!" the man shouts. "This is her husband!"
I can't wait till The Osbournes premieres here tonight. Just so they'll stop playing that bloody advert.
It doesn't happen very often, in fact its very rare that I'll fall head over heels in love. It happened with Seal's Kiss from a Rose and its happened again with Hoobastank's Running Away. Sigh.
Unfair. How are we supposed to concentrate on the exam with so many fine looking invigilators around?
Did you know that I can stand on my head? Not actually stand on it but you know what I mean... I need a new party trick.
Typical. The book I requested from the library becomes available the day before the exam.
I have strange fascinations. I like seeing what people name the images they put on their web pages. So I'll right click on them and click 'Properties'. It's a whole new world I tell ya. And which folders they keep their images in, even more fascinating.
Just having one of those days yeah
Didn't know what to do
Then there was you
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music yoy were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight
'Cause baby when I heard you
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one
Was tired of running out of luck
Thinking 'bout giving up yeah
Didn't know what to do
Then there was you
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music yoy were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight
'Cause baby when I heard you
For the first time
I knew we were meant to be as one
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music yoy were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight

It takes a long time to realise that all those people trying to be different end up looking and thinking the same as each other.

Snazzy profiles.
"Is design a product of environment, or skill? Can you create originality in a fixed environment?
Is it skill that produces originality regardless of environment? We created nDecision as a fixed environment for you to test your hypothesis."
Views and observations of modern Japan.
To avoid your hair going green....again. (This girl's had more hair colour changes than I've had...umm nevermind.)
Jack Slattery, my new favourite illustrator. This one is my favourite.
This is where I'm going on my honeymoon. Next on my wedding checklist, find a willing groom.
I spent too many years thinking Michael Jackson had a thing for girls who worked in libraries.
Keyboard shortcuts for special characters is a pretty handy thing to have. But combined with the Inter font, it's hours of fun!
The irony. Most of the men on the Most Beautiful Man site look like big girl's blouses.
I thought we'd left 'teacher's pets' behind in infant school but apparently they're still allowed to exist at university level.
"But Dr. Flababa, wouldn't you say that this should be blah blah blah di blah blah?"
Yes, please ask more meaningless questions that you know the answer to and you're just asking so everyone will know how clever and all knowing you are. 'Cos that'll make us love you even more. Twat.
The Renaissance has been defined as a rebirth of knowledge and revival of art and literature originating in Italy in the fifteenth century. This revival led to the revolution in the arts, which had an immense effect on the “understanding of the world of nature”. A revolution in physics and astronomy changed Western cosmology and greatly influenced the development of modern science. “Measurement, observation, experiment and classification” were beginning to be used on a much wider scale. Debus states that the period between the mid-fifteenth and end of the eighteenth century saw an important growth in “cultural and political influence of Western Europe over all other parts of the globe". It can be said that science gets invented in the Scientific Revolution. The word scientia had long been in use, but it meant something like "knowledge." There was no notion of a discipline called Science, and no one described themselves as being scientists or scientific. By the early 1700s, there were Academies of Science, and the word "science" had the specific definition we use today.
