Train of Thought *alllll aboard*

well, to start with I shall bring up a topic close to everyone who goes to ANU's hearts - webCT - that WONDERFUL invention invented by god knows who (if anyone finds out - email me and we will track them down) that just manages to waste more and more of my valuable 'study' time... It just makes me wanna smash my computer into my pristine green walls.
Yes that's right - the walls in my room are green - but hang on - if you look just a little bit closer you'll notice that ONE of them is WHITE!!! yes that's right - Fenner obviously thought it funny to MOCK me by making one of my walls white and the other three green. And the curtains - do NOT get me started on the curtains... argh they are bad - but hey, at least they blend with the green and white walls...
Speaking of things that blend with my walls, my foot hurts a lot today - well actually that's just totally irrelevant, but it does - and I want sympathy damnit!!!!
Hmmmn sympathy, interesting word that. Origins in latin or french or maybe it was greek, who knows, they're all languages I don't speak.
german, however, I do speak. In the rough sense that i can say hello and that's about it. But deciphering Rammstein lyrics is something i can do. mmmm Rammstein, that reminds me I have to buy some fireworks. One thing that I do enjoy since moving to Canberra is the legality of fireworks. It certainly beats risking life and limb by making your own out of sparkler dust and coke lids. You Canberra ppl really had depraved childhoods - i betcha you wouldn't even know what to do if I handed you three packets of sparklers and two coke lids. It would just be painful to watch actually, so i wont do it. I'll keep the sparklers to myself (when I go back to civilisation I will need them)
Oh yes - question (not in any way shape or form rhetorical)
why does Canberra have no tall buildings? It's like (heaven forbid) living in a SUBURB! oh no!!!!
I think i'll stop now before the natives crack down...
thankyou and good night
*alpha has left the building*

You have green walls??
I always imagined that would be quite offputting....

I thought feng shui was that stuff where you organise your couch in a particular orientation to maximise the flow of the room or something lol... Crazy hippy shit.

feng shui also includes colours and paints and window placement etc etc
