Urggh
Now that Basic Design has been handed in (THE worst assignment yet) I thought I'd feel good, right? No, there's still a gazillion more things to do so I'm really ..urgh.. you know? And now my throat hurts like crazy so I know I'm coming down with something. 
The good thing about Basic Design tho is that we're onto a fun illustration project. I'm so excited I'm already researching ideas. But I'll port more about that another day.
I've moved into a new flat at the student flats (with Nicole). It started out better because I live Lily now and the place was tidier, but we have two indian girls, and I mean no risrespect, but they're very dirty and rude. And they talk about us in their language all the time, so they're quite patronizing. It's got worse since we complained. We wrote a note once for them to clean the elements on the stove (because their mess was burning everytime we cooked) and for them to stop using our plates and stuff without cleaning it afterwards. They got really pissed off and attacked me, saying it was "rude" to leave notes. What do the hypocrites do now? Leave notes for us. And they're so petty now - they won't pay for things like rubbish bags for the whole flat, will only use their own toilet paper (keeping their stash in their room), and the list goes on. It's almost as bad as the old flat. I hate being put in these situations because I want to have some revenge, but my Christian morals tell me to just leave it and not cause an argument. So I'm not, but it's still silly to have to put up with their crap. (Then again, I wish I had the wisdom of Jesus so that I could give them a whoop-ass comment that they couldn't even argue against. Thats why JC is so cool).
Anyway.
Did you hear that Warner bros. has pushed back the release date for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince!? From Nov/Dec to July 2009!!! I can't believe it. And the sole purpose is to get more money. I mean, December is my summer holidays! I guess July is my mid semester hols, but I can't wait that long! I'm getting a tad old to be so excited about Harry Potter these days....
YEAH RIGHT.
Lol.
I'm going now to see how Obama is going. And maybe watch that Obamagirl video. Haha
Man, if that McCain yokel becomes president, I (and the rest of the world) will never forgive America. Stupid red necks. Thinking they own the world.
Anyway, I'll post more later.

[EDIT2]Some more photos! Just a few, not all. These ones are from the small Opera Theatre in Wanganui. Yeah, it's me again.
[/EDIT2]
[EDIT]I took some photography today for my Photography assignment. We have to emulate a Photographer's work - I chose Cindy Sherman (her Untitled Film Stills work) and she usually has herself in it, so I had to photograph MYSELF with a similar theory behind the photos. I went to a graveyard for one scene - a really old one in Wanganui. It was really freaky! The top shot is freaky!
Oh! And I don't have the photo on me, but I found a grave of a guy called George Harrison! (For those who know the Beatles, that's pretty funny). He died 1921; 80 years before the Beatle George! And 1921 was one of the more recent dates too (freaky!)
[/EDIT]
Isn't it a lucky day?
Well actually, it's the 9th now, but hey. The rest of the world is on the 8th. I can't wait to see the olympics, but unfortunately my life is ruled by University 24/7. Design is time consuming! This is why my exciting new layout is.. not that exciting. I decided to change it on the spot really, I'm having an all nighter at school (yey.) but at 11pm I decided to do something about it. And now I'll get back to work (or not..)
But I hope to write a little more on this blog from now on, even though I'm really busy. I hope y'all stick w/ me through it!
BTW Visit Lily's blog. She's a girl in my class I've recently moved in with and she's really wicked. Go check her out 
Live your Digital Dream with Canon!

Be prepared
Hi y'all!
Please come back soon, for the new and improved QS.com!
I'm going to be "re-inventing" (as you can say) this site, so prepare for good stuff?
Haha don't get too excited. But I promise I'll be a round a bit more often, despite the amount of school work! Semester two is well underway and it's totally crazy!!!
Hope y'all are good! Remember to come back soon!

Ho Hum... Middle of the year. No, wait, not really
Firstly, hello, I'm back in the meantime. My excuse for not writing regularly? Now that I'm away from home, I find my "diary entries" are my weekly emails to friends and family, so I tend to forget this damn site. So much has happened since I last wrote, I won't even know where to begin.
BUT what I was going to say is that in the last 10 minutes, I've been taking "Which Beatle Would You Be" quizzes. I know these online things aren't always correct, but I think that you start realising something when every single answer is the same! I'm not cheating either, because most of the answers I wouldn't have related to the people and I was totally "what would I be like" you know? Anyway, I kept on getting Paul McCartney! See: 1 (this one really described me perfectly!), 2, 3, 4, 5. I'm pretty stoked on this because I LOVE him! We're so compatible. Haha. Nah, I'm in a sort of Beatles obsession at the moment. It's great. Harry Potter and the Beatles tend to rule my life... You know All you need is love is both a Beatle's AND a Potter theme...
So anyways, I'm loving Uni atm. I may be in a small town (which I'm growing to love anyway!) but it's perfect for me, and is challenging (so many telented classmates and teachers that expect the best - It's horrible, but it'll get my butt into gear!). Plus I've made some good friends - the only downside is that once again, the guy I like "just wants to be friends". This last one was amazing too. I don't want to let him go! Only because I'd be the best person for him and no one else is better for me! But yeah, HE doesn't see that. stupid boy. Anyway, I don't want to go into great detail about it. I tend not to talk about my very love life on the net, I'm pretty personal on those things!
Crazy thing happened saturday night though. In our flats (which are run by the university, but aren't like, student residents because we're not a huge university) we have rooms with locks, and last night I accidentally locked myself out, with my key inside AND my heater on.. heating up everything. I was stressed out because it was the weekend so the manager was probably at home in bed by then and couldn't help me, I had NO money left on my cellphone and obviously was tired and wanted to get to bed without worrying about how my room was slowly turning into a blazing furnace. Thankfully the temporary flatmate had left, and her room was still unlocked so I slept on her bed (with blankets and pillows from a few of my other flatmates, bless them) and all the necessities I needed in the morning were still in reach (bath things in the bathroom and clean clothes drying on the drying rack in the living area). I missed church on sunday though, because I had to wait for the security guy to let me in. My room wasn't a furnace, but that heater had been going on for 14 hours! But oh! It never sounds so scary or worrying until it actually happens! I was worrying all night that something might actually catch fire and ALL my belongings (EVERYTHING I own from my wallet to computer and memory disk) might just be destroyed. I'm such a worry warts, but imagine if that happened to you!
Anywho, if anyone wants to see some photos and shizz from some happenings at Uni check out my facebook album!
See ya!!

I'm not really dead.
Buy, Create and Sell cool shirts here!
[EDIT] I always thought my twin brother looked really similar to Daniel Radcliffe, asides from hair colour and skin tone. So I tried to find pictures of the two of them that were as similar as I could be bothered to find (thus this was impossible) and this is what I compared. Not as similar as I thought (maybe its just the photos), but there are some major similarities. The thing that made me think about how similar they were was in Harry Potter 3 when Harry is talking to Lupin on that bridge and he scratches his neck... my twin does that all the time!! They're even similar in characteristics I think [/EDIT]
Man, It's been AGES since I updated - I really never have time for this, or if I do, I'm not in the mood!
But I'm on mid-semester break. Half a semester has flown by - and I'm loving it! Sure, there's the dumb parts of my course, but in general, I love it!
I visited Dio today - saw my old teachers and some old friends. Got a LOT of hugs. And awkward ones hahaha.
Oh and I found my classmate's website with EVERYTHING about my latest assignment and the people in my class (my uni has small intakes) - you can see it here. I'm Sam of course. Thats a HORRIBLE photo of me. Urgh Urgh Urgh. Don't you hate it when you see photos and realise that people see you like that everyday and you're like "ew, I'm hideous!" At least you can kinda see my new hair. Tiff from the boys' flat died it for me (she's not a hairdresser, but she can do foils). So it's blonde with brown strips - but now my hair looks generally brown. It's nicer hanging down where you see a twist of blonde and brown.
And for your information, Nathan is my church friend, and I hang out With Rebecca, Christina and Nicole (check the pics). Oh, and I can't forget to mention Tom, Morgan and Ben haha. Good times Great People. Hello if you're reading this!!!!
Other than that I've taken to the Hairspray soundtrack which I've just bought. I love that movie!!
[edit] Can't believe I wrote this entry before the awful Flash Flood deaths on tuesday. What an awful tragedy! And scary to think that that could've been a group of year 12's at my high school - my old school usually goes to OPC this exact week every year. My year group was the last to go (exactly two years ago) but we didn't go after that. Rumour was that our school was banned since some trouble makers in my year did something really innappropriate. I'd say it, but it's disgusting. I don't really believe that story though - I found it out from the apparent trouble makers own mouths. (But how awful for our school's name if it was true!). Anyway, yeah, scary to think it could've been my old school's year 12s in the accident instead!!! My condolences and thoughts go out to the family and friends of the victims. I can't imagine what they're going through! It's so sad!![/edit]
