emmas health update #6
i would just like to add that my lunch today smells like cigarettes. like that nice smell of an unsmoked one. well... its nice when its in cigarette form. but not when i have to eat it for lunch.
although i am sure that there are many people out there whose lunch would only contain of cigarettes. like that chain smoker on NCIS last night.
i'd also like to add that abbey on NCIS is my hero. she is just so damn cool.
here is my tribute to her.
emmas health update #5
i woke up this morning and suddenly realised that we're free of all major heart pains! yessss! sometimes when i breath in really deeply i can feel a slight tightness in the chest. But other than that, i am feeling tops!
note to self: no more pounders.

emmas health update #4
i just saw an add for 'flora pro-active' butter stuff. i think i might buy it. it is supposedly good for your cholesterol, now that i have a malfunctioning heart, i'll need to watch my cholesterol.
having the heart of a 60 year old is such a drain on my social life too. hang on... red wine is supposed to be good for the heart?
emmas health update #3
as i was just lathering butter on my olive bread toast, i was reminded that heart disease runs in the family. my own father had open heart surgery not long ago. maybe i am destined for the big zipper one day too?
emmas health update #2
heart pains are still present more than 24 hours after eating the burger.
today i didnt eat much except cereal for breakfast, fajita's (nandita tacos) and some musksticks/big bosses/jelly frogs about 30 minutes ago.
if they are still there in 24 hours, i might think about going to the doctor. maybe. maybe i should eat some whole grained bread or something. or maybe some mylanta - it seems to make the ladies chest on TV feel better.
in other news, i'd like to be, under the sea, in an octupus's garden, in the shade.
emmas health update #1
i still have heart pains. and its the next morning.
i told mum i had pains. after 5 minutes of checking me out, she finally asked what i ate yesterday.
i went through the list.
- Bowl of Just Right
- Orange Juice
- entire Douceur du Matin fruitloaf from work
- Milo Bar
- Spicy Octopus Asian Rice thing
- Passionfruit Tiro
- 1/4 of Jons Chicken and Mushroom Pasta
- 3/4 Pound of McDonalds meat, with cheese, pickles, bun
- 390ml Sprite
- Lemon Tart
- Hot Milo
- Yogurt Top Musuli Bar
- Orange Juice
- Steak and little round things (unfinished due to severe pains)
I probably don't need to say that my mums expression changed as soon as i said 3/4 of a pound of McDonalds meat. I probably didn't need to continue with the list after that either.
At least I made it through the night.

hopefully i make it through to the end of this post
i ate a large majority of a mcdonalds pounder today.
i dont think it was a good idea.
during my attempt to eat dinner less than 10 minutes ago, i had to stop on account of the chest pains. is it possible by eating 3/4 of a pound of mc donalds meat, i have done severe damage to my health?
only time will tell.
let us prey that i make it through the night.
--------------------------
Upadate: 5 minutes later
--------------------------
i would like to add that before the pounder i also ate spicey asian octopus... stuff and 1/4 of jons pasta, which he eats every day, and im sure has also given him premature heart problems.
im in a lecture about MS Text.
in less than a minute, i will have a pounder from mcdonalds waiting for me outside this lecture. i have mixed emotions. but mostly i just feel sick.
the lime green chair.
according to the mystical chop-sticks, im a tiny splinter worth more into the relationship of me and jon. i dont think that sentence makes sense.
im in my computer systems lecture again. yesterday was the first time ever that i missed a systems lecture. i was very distraught.
according to jon and jo, it was the best ever lecture too. it was finished in 35 minutes, then sex-bomb nandita came over and started talking to jon and jo. i am v.jealous.
amy just came online, she is my #1 boyfriend by the way.
Anti-non-sexy
Mullet-loving
Youthful-spooner
ps. in case anyone thought i was being mean... its a double negative. so its a positive.

today
jon gave me a rose today. i still hate him. but its a nice rose... even if i did have to pick it out myself, and it was only $2.
no matter what he says... it is true. he will try to deny it. but it is true. i have photos and everything.

quote of the day
from the guy with blue hair and blue clothes in my FIT1001 lab at uni.
if someone gives you an apple and asks you how many apples you've got, they would say "1 apple", but you say "no, there is a step in the middle of you giving me the apple, and me reciving the apple."
i got soul but im not a soldier
dear diary,
i hate jon. that is all i have to say today. my mind is clouded with anger.
lots of love from me.

man with the gun
firstly, i would like to say that jonathan levin and his bro, ben, are the new junior australian rogaining champions.

jon and ben getting their trophy... boot... thing...
this weekend was super fun. pity im so damn unfit tho. maybe not quite as unfit as the slackers that only got like 120 points. (wtf?)
it was a really good experience, i was pretty hesitant about doing it with some random man i'd never met before, not to mention doing it at all in the first place. but i like the outdoors, and im always up for a challenge.
i dont have much else to say, other than boris is awesome, i am not. team X111 (us) got 860 points i think, and we ended up walking/running/hiking/crawling about 40km in 24 hours. we got a fair amount of sleep in there as well, a bit more than expected, but i could have slept for 24 hours after the first days effort. (the comp started at midday saturday, and ended midday sunday.)
here is a photo from the summit of one of the super huge mountain things we climbed.

yeah, it was dark, and it was my camera phone. and basically it is a black picture with a white dot in it. the white dot is the moon.
in reality, there were also little lights of farm houses scattered around and campfires plus , you could see for miles.
here is a picture of our camp.
it was in the town centre of a little place called barkly. the town consisted of a tiny weeny church, a town bell and a town hall. the town hall for the event served as the hash house. yes, i got quite excited by the name too the firt time i heard it. however, its actually just a place where they serve food for the entire event, and its where you finish.
so yeah. jon and ben won. emma and boris didnt. but emma and boris had fun. jon and ben did not. the end.

rock of gibraltar
this weekend i'm going somewhere... i'm not exactly sure where, but i'm competing in the australian rogaining championships. no, a rogain is not a type of hair re-growth drug (as i'm sure most of you would agree i don't need any form of hair re-growth) it is infact
a sport.
this competition happens to go for 24 hours straight. yes, i know i am stupid and crazy for running around in the bush for 24 hours looking for little markers on the side of the mountain.
i'm in a team with this guy that i don't know at all, except that his name is boris.
now, whilst i am away i expect
emails, blog comments and SMSs.
that is all.
tomorrow i have to get my mum a mothers day present, any ideas people? i also have to set up my grandmas broadband internet connection. oh the joy.

below the library
beneath the hargrave-andrew library at uni, there is a quiet study area, unlike the other quiet study area, this one is actually quiet. there are 5 guys opposite me playing some game over their LAN, a guy on my table with the biggest glasses i have ever seen, accompanied by an qually as large calculator.
behind me are some asian guys, occassionaly muttering something, but mostly it is muffled by their weird asian-moustaches. (you know the ones, it looks like they've been growing them their entire lives, they are like bum-fluff.)
before i came to the library, i went over to the campus centre to get myself some pasta - half cabonara, half spinach and pumpkin.
as i walked back, i ate it. this may not have been the best idea.
so i sit down in the quiet study area in the downstairs section of the library, i'm surrounded by giant journals on "genome research" and "embo journal" and place my empty pasta container down on the table.
after opening my laptop and waiting for everything to load i feel my stomache twist and churn... i could feel a really awkward fart coming.
i try my hardest to hold on, and hope that it will just be a silent one... but alas, despite all my efforts, it eventually escapes.
it was the loudest, most feral sounding auditory extravaganza i have ever heard. and most likely, the people around me thought the same thing (except maybe the weird moustache wearing asians... they probably experience this daily) and needless to say, everyone in the quiet study area either looked over at me in disgust or started giggling behing their books.
i have never been so embarassed (and proud! it was a ripper!) infront of a bunch of nerds before.

my dad
my dad just spoke to me properly for the first time in 17 days.
there was a time that i called home to talk to my mum.
dad: hello?
emma: is mum home?
dad: no.
*both parties hang up*
you see, somehow i randomly installed windows xp service pack 2 last night on the family computer... and it asked me to restart... so naturally i didn't.
when my mother restarted the computer late last night (why? i have no idea) all it did was show the BIOS loading screen, the Windows Loading screen... and then the
big blue screen of death - so naturally her first port of call was me.
i couldn't be fucked fixing it then and there, so i left it until today - and yes, it's still not done.
so today when i got home i went to the kitchen to see if there was any food, then came directly to my room... as is the usual protocol these days. a few minutes later my dad came in.
dad: how long have you been home? (in an angry tone)
emma: *pauses*
3 minutes.
dad: whats wrong with the computer? (in a nicer, but still angry tone)
emma: nothing.
dad: it doesn't work. (in an almost nice tone)
emma: i know.
dad: can you fix it? (in a what would be conceived as a friendly tone of voice to the average human being... but not me.)
emma: no.
dad: *walks off*
it was pure beauty.
but i hate it how the second that he needs me again, he is nice.
i'm not going to do anything what so ever for him until he apologises for being an asshole.
to those that have no idea what happened... on my 18th birthday i wanted him to come to my birthday party not to like... hang with me, but just to be there. anyway, before the party, i asked him to help me move some slabs out to the car, however it was during the time that he watched the 7pm news... after he moved one, he goes to me "move the others you lazy thing!" and storms off, and i say, in a nice friendly tone back, "i'll see you at 8 or 8.30 ok?" - and i get no reply, apart from a view of his back walking swiftly towards the house.
At the end of the night he hadn't turned up to my party, so naturally, i was pretty upset that my own father hadn't come to celebrate my birthday with me (oh, and during the day of my birthday, he was working for the entirity.)
In the morning, when James, my Mum and I were leaving the house, my dad gets all agro when he see's James, and was just generally really uncool and angry and... mean... not only to James, but me and my mum too.
so we haven't spoken since.that is all.

a blog for later.
i cant access the internet here at the moment, but i have a big desire to blog - so here we are.
i am loving salona at the moment. she semi-introduced my new lover to me. his name is chris. we think he is possibly gay. but thats ok. i don't mind.
he seems neat... in a cool way - i can't say anything about his bedroom floor, but his handwriting wasn't the neatest. he has very large spaces between his words. his handwriting is like this.
at the moment i am re-ignighting my love for Chris Carrabba (coincidence that my gay IT-lover is called that too? I think not!) and the Dashboard Confessional boys. They have just announced a tour across the US with the one and only, Mr. Benjamin Michael Lee.
Ben Lee + Chris Carrabba = !!!
its such a great opportunity for both of them.
ok. how embarassing. i just realised that the reason i couldn't access blogger was because i didnt connect to the monash wireless network right.
it's not like im studying to be a systems analyst or anything.
ok. blog post must end. too many people are talking to me on msn now. and im now connected to the network.

its an hour fast.

on the 45
my bus theory wasn't proven today. quite sad. i was forced to sit next to some old woman on the way to uni today.
on the bus if someone gets on and there are no spare seats, then they are forced to sit next to the best looking person who has a spare seat next to them.
however... the reverse was proven yesterday afternoon, wait. no. monday afternoon. I got on my usual bus, and it was packed - i wasn't feeling entirely up to bashing through the crowd of asian international students so i was one of the last on, and was forced to stand in the isle. However, i then heard my name being shouted out, so i looked up and saw Simon Hall sitting there, with the last
possible seat on the bus next to him. However, no one wanted to sit next to him... on account of his severe creepyness. So people let me through, and i got an awesome seat on the bus.
The opposite of my theory being that, people won't sit next to creepy/ugly/unfortunate people.
Tonight i'm going to have dinner at one of my neighbours houses. It should be cool... one of my old mates from school is house sitting it. she isn't the best company, but its a free feed in a huge mansion house thing. so im set!
urgh. i have 42 minutes of battery life left. i don't think i'm going to make it through the lecture!!!
yey. this is a fun song. i really feel like jumping out of my seat and singing and dancing like a crazy fuck.
ok. i swear this song (crack cocaine ranger) isnt by the dandy warhols... well the instrumental part is very dandys... but there is no way this is courtney taylor-taylors voice. well... it is sometimes. but not others.
ok. im writing crap.
signing off.

my new love
ok. well... i left my tamagotchi at home today. and when i put it to sleep last night it had a giant skull above its head. so i wouldn't be surprised if i have a dead tamagotchi sitting on my bed-side table when i get home. and i semi forgot to feed it before i left home. not that its my fault!!! i woke up late because my radio-alarm was all confused... n stuff.
im in my systems lecture (the one with nandita as the lecturer) and i actually know what she's talking about... so my logic is that... if i already know it, i dont have to listen.
but onto my main point... my new love.
now that my tamagotchi is dead (the tamagotchi was to replace james as my new toy) i have to find someone new.
i dont know his name. but he is in 2 of my lectures. i saw him for the first time last week. and he is possibly gay, but that doesn't bother me (take james as a prime example. ha!)
i figure that right now is my best chance to talk to him because i've had a few drinks, however today Jon made me sit in our usual seat, so i couldn't sit next to my new lover. i think i might name him... Raoul.
yesterday salona and i sat next to raoul... but my lecture seat-table thing was broken, so i had to move down one seat, so i was one seat away from him. which i think may have been a good thing as (wow! nandita has some beautiful MSPaint drawn diagrams up on the screen! she is so talented!) salona wouldnt have like... taken my clothes off and then thrown me on him or soemthing if i was right next to him.
i have a note that i can give him.
hi my name is emma
0400######
wanna root?
i think it should work. im so totally in with a chance! haha.
