insanity takes hold in the lab

1. Log on, wait a sec, then get a frightened look on your face and scream "Oh my God! They've found me!" and bolt.
2. Laugh uncontrollably for about 3 minutes & then suddenly stop and look suspiciously at everyone who looks at you.
3. When your computer is turned off, complain to the monitor on duty that you can't get the damn thing to work. After he/she's turned it on, wait 5 minutes, turn it off again, & repeat the process for a good half hour.
4. Type frantically, often stopping to look at the person next to you evilly.
5. Before anyone else is in the lab, connect each computer to different screen than the one it's set up with.
6. Write a program that plays the "Smurfs" theme song and play it at the highest volume possible over & over again.
7. Work normally for a while. Suddenly look amazingly startled by something on the screen and crawl underneath the desk.
8. Ask the person next to you if they know how to tap into top-secret Pentagon files.
9. Use Interactive Send to make passes at people you don't know.
10. Make a small ritual sacrifice to the computer before you turn it on.
11. Bring a chainsaw, but don't use it. If anyone asks why you have it, say "Just in case..." mysteriously.
12. Type on VAX for a while. Suddenly start cursing for 3 minutes at everything bad about your life. Then stop and continue typing.
13. Enter the lab, undress, and start staring at other people as if they're crazy while typing.
14. Light candles in a pentagram around your terminal before starting.
15. Ask around for a spare disk. Offer $2. Keep asking until someone agrees. Then, pull a disk out of your fly and say "Oops, I forgot."
16. Every time you press Return and there is processing time required, pray "Ohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease," and scream "YES!" when it finishes.
17. "DISK FIGHT!!!"
18. Start making out with the person at the terminal next to you (It helps if you know them, but this is also a great way to make new friends).
19. Put a straw in your mouth and put your hands in your pockets. Type by hitting the keys with the straw.
20. If you're sitting in a swivel chair, spin around singing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" whenever there is processing time required.
21. Draw a picture of a woman (or man) on a piece of paper, tape it to your monitor. Try to seduce it. Act like it hates you and then complain loudly that women (men) are worthless.
22. Try to stick a Nintendo cartridge into the 3 disc drive, when it doesn't work, get the supervisor.
23. When you are on an IBM, and when you turn it on, ask loudly where the smiling Apple face is when you turn on one of those.
24. Print out the complete works of Shakespeare, then when its all done (two days later) say that all you wanted was one line.
25. Sit and stare at the screen, biting your nails noisily. After doing this for a while, spit them out at the feet of the person next to you.
26. Stare at the screen, grind your teeth, stop, look at the person next to grinding. Repeat procedure, making sure you never provoke the person enough to let them blow up, as this releases tension, and it is far more effective to let them linger.
27. If you have long hair, take a typing break, look for split ends, cut them and deposit them on your neighbor's keyboard as you leave.
28. Put a large, gold-framed portrait of the British Royal Family on your desk and loudly proclaim that it inspires you.
29. Come to the lab wearing several layers of socks. Remove shoes and place them of top of the monitor. Remove socks layer by layer and drape them around the monitor. Exclaim sudden haiku about the aesthetic beauty of cotton on plastic.
30. Take the keyboard and sit under the computer. Type up your paper like this. Then go to the lab supervisor and complain about the bad working conditions.
31. Laugh hysterically, shout "You will all perish in flames!!!" and continue working.
32. Bring some dry ice & make it look like your computer is smoking.
33. Assign a musical note to every key (ie. the Delete key is A Flat, the B key is F sharp, etc.). Whenever you hit a key, humits note loudly. Write an entire paper this way.
34. Attempt to eat your computer's mouse.
35. Borrow someone else's keyboard by reaching over, saying "Excuse me, mind if I borrow this for a sec?", unplugging the keyboard & taking it.
36. Bring in a bunch of magnets and have fun.
37. When doing calculations, pull out an abacus and say that sometimes the old ways are best. 38. Play Pong for hours on the most powerful computer in the lab.
39. Make a loud noise of hitting the same key over and over again until you see that your neighbor is noticing (You can hit the space bar so your fill isn't affected). Then look at your neighbor's keyboard. Hit his/her delete key several times, erasing an entire word. While you do this, ask: "Does *your* delete key work?" Shake your head, and resume hitting the space bar on your keyboard. Keep doing this until you've deleted about a page of your neighbor's document. Then, suddenly exclaim: "Well, whaddya know? I've been hitting the space bar this whole time. No wonder it wasn't deleting! Ha!" Print out your document and leave.
40. Remove your disk from the drive and hide it. Go to the lab monitor and complain that your computer ate your disk. (For special effects, put some Elmer's Glue on or around the disk drive. Claim that the computer is drooling.)
41. Stare at the person's next to your's screen, look really puzzled, burst out laughing, and say "You did that?" loudly. Keep laughing, grab your stuff and leave, howling as you go.
42. Point at the screen. Chant in a made up language while making elaborate hand gestures for a minute or two. Press return or the mouse, then leap back and yell "COVEEEEERRRRRR!" peek up from under the table, walk back to the computer and say. "Oh, good. It worked this time," and calmly start to type again.
43. Keep looking at invisible bugs and trying to swat them.
44. See who's online. Send a total stranger a talk request. Talk to them like you've known them all your lives. Hang up before they get a chance to figure out you're a total stranger.
45. Bring an small tape player with a tape of really absurd sound effects. Pretend it's the computer and look really lost.
46. Pull out a pencil. Start writing on the screen. Complain that the lead doesn't work.
47. Come into the computer lab wearing several endangered species of flowers in your hair. Smile incessantly. Type a sentence, then laugh happily, exclaim "You're such a marvel!!", and kiss the screen. Repeat this after every sentence. As your ecstasy mounts, also hug the keyboard. Finally, hug your neighbor, then the computer assistant, and walk out.
48. Run into the computer lab, shout "Armageddon is here!!!!!", then calmly sit down and begin to type.
49. Quietly walk into the computer lab with a Black and Decker chainsaw, rev that baby up, and then walk up to the nearest person and say "Give me that computer or you'll be feeding my pet crocodile for the next week".
50. Two words: Tesla Coil.

shopping- a therapy or a disorder??

hey all!! Had a great weekend..hanged out with two of my closest friends here..sara and chrisandra..haha, we went for this annual fun fair called the Royal Adelaide Show..will post some pics if i have the time. Neways, they have all sorts of thiings under the sun and we were mainly there for the shopping. Hmm..wanted to sit for the rides but no one wanted to go with me, decided to be chicken after seeing those crazy rides...they had this ride, where a huge ball is tied to opposite poles and two people will be in the Ball, tied of course.. the minute ur in, the ball is tossed up in the air..so imagine ur a giant baby, playing with a ball with people in it...my stomach will just shrink and eject through my ass ok!!! crazy ride..apparently, that string to the ball snapped one of those years...how can ppl still go for it i don't understand.

Basically, we did nothing but shopping, things were extremely cheap, and i managed to pamper my ass off so i'm feeling so darn guilty now. Well, thanks to both of my friends for brain washing me into buying stuffs... but overall, it was a fun day...took loads of pics and we looked stupid taking them everywhere. But, heck it...as long as we know how to have fun!!! Oh, the dolls that u can win there are humungous!! played a few stupid games that we thought were easy but no it wasn't.. wasted almost 25 bucks throwing dumb bouncing yellow balls into some stupid bucket. Still can't believe i couldn't get them in...2 balls in and i can choose my DOLL!!! but i managed to get my own dolls...small ones..hehehe... for more pics, check out my site in multiply soon!!! Abel, i need ur help in this blog again..

Nways, baby, if ur reading this, i just wanna let you know that i'm missing you all the time...never once i leave u out of thought..well, that's the best for now right. We've had our ups and downs and we know there are things to work on and i know we will stand together for as long as we want...thank you baby...2 years spent with you is just an incredible journey in discovering this dream that i yearned for. the happy times, the rough times, the crazeee times, the boring bits, i'm still gonna stick through it for you!! Your cuddles and kisses are just exquisite and i love it!!! You're my catch and i'm your bait. Nothing else will change and no, i'm still me ok? You gotta stop being paranoid..and i gotta stop being paranoid too.. for you, always...

a lost being

How many of you are always in the utmost state of confidence? Always standing head-up, nose parallel to the ground, in a state of positivism even in times of desperate egress...well, can these ppl raise their hands? Can these ppl come upfront to the stage as i would like to present my award to them. Just how do you cope? In all forms of therapy, exercise, or meditation you can do, would these help?

My reasons are simple. Bombarded with issues in life, overwhelmed by the over-work of my little brain cells in my tiny little head, my purpose and goal in this forthcoming stage of maturation (not too sure about whether it's still developing), the uncertainties of life's simplicity or ambiguousness, my heart felt need of needing to contribute a majority of my nobility or morality back to the ones who sacrificed dearly and compassionately for me, but yet, so lost in wondering how, and overcoming pessimism in my thoughts and feelings, AND able to wear this exquisite mask created by 'the creator' for 'the creator' to still look strong, brave and everything in the goodness of oneself. Yet, that calls for some form of talent, wouldn't it? I see that I've mastered it well...

Yes, one would say it takes time to learn, ya de ya de ya de... how far, how long, how deep does it take to learn enough? Maybe I'm just sick of it...maybe I'm impatient..always driving myself to the edge and not taking time to r-e-l-a-x...does that work? does easing your mind, your body, your soul actually HELP??? Tell me how.. i would greatly appreciate your explanation. I"m not being pessimistic about everything, i'm just taking into account the BIG factor, R-I-S-K taking.. all my fallbacks.

Independence is a plus factor in growing, right? It takes one to adapt...not the world to adapt to you alone. That's right.. But i'm just one tiny soul that tries hard.. A shoulder to hang on to would be of great help at least.. Hmmm..not calling for anyone to do so. I'm a big girl..who should know what she wants..and knows how to get it..and works hard to get it. A big applause to myself because this girl here who thinks she knows doesn't know!!! Fabulous!!! Bravo!!! Super star!!!!
I know what I wish I want...

I want to be able to love. To go all out and save those unloved ones. My passion for dogs is one. I want to grow old knowing i've saved the lost ones. But yet, i'm cruel..and i cry out with revulsion to know that i can even fork out such thoughts... i'm analysing myself..always doing so. Notice, i have great hidden plans waiting to pertrude from within.. its black, dirty, unimaginable, haunting and unforgiving.. how's that sound? Its served for miserable people, individuals who have never seen what's love..those who take and never serve back, to those who take love away from others. i wish to do something in return. Don't panic, everyone has their dark side that can't be shared..at all.

I want to make everyone around me happy. To see their dreams come true, to celebrate, to keep friends, loved ones close at heart. How do i do that? be myself? That answer undermines the actual thing. How many of us know our very selves, inside-out 100%? I've got another award to pass on... don't pretend, be honest. We know shit..nothing but shitz about ourselves. Basic behaviour, everyday sttitude we possess are merely the tip of the iceberg. Try digging, our body and mind is a whole treasure to find..

My lists of what i wish i want goes on.. but i won't share. What a life to live in!!!
