Today I crashed my beloved little rave car.
I am very sad.
I actually didn't drive into that pole (I'm not that retarded).
I was turning (down the street on the right of the picture) and wasn't really paying attention (I was thinking about a maths problem, funnily enough!) and a lady drove into the front of my bonnet on the driver's side (where all the damage is).
My car then spun around on the slippery road, and parked itself neatly in front of that pole (probably the best possible spot my car could have ended up, actually. It was completely out of the way).
It's definitely a write off, and I will probably never see it again.
So I'm not dead or anything! Just been very busy with all manner of things. Like driving up mountains in my small car.
I will update this soon! But as this blog is mainly for me to post things about my life, I figured I should write this RIGHT NOW, as it is quite relevant to my life.
I'm moving out again!
In about 6.5 hours a truck will be here to move Spidey, Ian and I to our new house in Heathridge! It's an actual house (not a duplex), and it is much bigger. We even have a room that will be JUST for dancing games!
Also some girl called 'Shezz' is going to be living with us, too. I have never met her. It should be interesting.
We're having a housewarming party next month, so if you haven't already got the invite on Facebook and would like to come, be sure to hit me up about it!
There will be pictures and videos and all sorts soon!
Though, having said that, when we get our Internet redirected to the new place, apparently we will have no Internet for two weeks. Don't know what's up with that.
Right... so it's about 1:00AM right now, and I figured I might as well write that entry I've been meaning to write.
A lot of shit has happened since I first said I was going to write something... so bare with me as this will probably be a very poorly constructed blog entry.
I guess the best place to start would be with that picture of me and Andy looking like 'mad dogs'. That was a rather interesting night.
My friend Corrine (she works at Timezone, that's how I know her), had her 19th birthday on the 20th of February. It was rather insane.
It began pretty normally, a bunch of people standing around drinking beers and what not, and then it became one of those parties where people puke everywhere and are all very drunk (admittedly, I was also very drunk, but because I am a man, I did not puke). Check out these sweet pics from the night:
My brother taught me how to 'shotgun' drinks. This is me shotgunning a UDL.
Spidey, me, Andy and Michelle. Andy is sitting on Michelle. Poor Michelle!
This is Andy with Corrine's Mum... Corrine's Mum was rather drunk.
Michelle, Spidey, me and Corrine!
Spidey and Ryan. Yeah I don't get what is going on either.
So as you can see, the party was clearly rocking.
For some weird reason, me, Andy and Spidey all decided we should leave, even though the party was still in full effect. For some reason I thought I should drive (I really should not have), and the scariest thing is, no one stopped me! So anyway, I began driving me, Spidey and Andy home (Andy was spending the night at my house). Somehow I got lost, and Andy and Spidey got out of the car and decided they were going to walk back to my house as it'd 'be quicker'. I drunky protested this idea, exclaiming things such as "SPIDEY, NO. NO SPIDEY. SPIDEY GET BACK IN THE CAR- OK ANDY YOU GO WITH SPIDEY I'LL MEET YOU AT THE HOUSE".
Somehow, and I actually don't know how, I managed to drive back to my house without crashing or hurting anyone, but to my horror Spidey and Andy were not there, I called them and found out that they were at 'The pizza place'. Luckily I knew where this was, and I went to get them.
Upon arriving, I found them each with a street sign. For those that don't know, we have a small collection of street signs here at my house, and clearly Spidey and Andy thought we needed more.
Spidey attempted to get the sign in my car, but it didn't work, so we had to walk the signs back to my place. We managed OK! But then when we were about 10 metres from my house... a car pulled up next to us. I couldn't make out exactly what it said (my vision was really bad due to the wonders of alcohol), but I saw the words 'COUNCIL' and 'JOONDALUP'. So we all dropped our signs, and bailed. Somehow (and again, I don't know how), Andy and I managed to get inside my house, however, somewhere between dropping the signs, and being in my house, I must have fallen over, since I found myself with a chipped tooth, a bleeding lip, and cuts on my knees and hands. I don't actually remember falling over, but it must have happened.
So once we were inside, we realised Spidey was missing. This was AWFUL! So I called him and he told me he was 'at the construction site'. I had no idea what the hell that meant, but as it turns out, there is a construction site behind the school that we live next to, and he had somehow made his way there. He got back to the house and everything was OK, though.
Well, everything apart from the fact that we did not have our signs!
So naturally, we had to go out and get more. We scored ourselves a bus stop, and a CHILDREN CROSSING SIGN.
We later got rid of the bus stop, but we still have the children crossing sign.
Ah, what a fun night that was.
So after all that excitement, as you should know, I went to Lancelin for no reason. That was cool.
Not a whole lot happened for a while after that.
About three weeks ago now, I went on another magical adventure to a strange town. But this time I had a companion!
This is Jakki! We decided, pretty much out of no where, that we would like to visit this 'haunted' bakery in Nannup. So one Friday night, that is exactly what we did. We literally drove all the way to NANNUP (check out where it is on a map) and back in ONE NIGHT. What's more is, this supposed haunted bakery, WAS NO WHERE TO BE FOUND. We did see a guy passed out in the middle of the main street in Nannup at about 1:00AM, though! That was neat.
We passed through several random little towns on the way to Nannup, and because we're cool, we took pictures in front of them.
By the time we got home, it was about 6AM, and I had to go to work at 10! It was pretty awesome.
A few weeks later Jakki and I made a trip to a place called Gnomesville, which is east of Bunbury. It's literally a bit of bush with about 2000 gnomes situated in it...
We even planted our own little gnome!
We named him Bartholomew the antisocial gnome. See the video for an explanation
Amazing signage!
Other exciting things we have done include; starting our own blog where we complain about shit that pisses us off (we do this quite regularily). Check it out:
Jayce moved out of our house, and for a few weeks it was just me and Spidey living here, splitting the bills and what not two ways. That wasn't so bad, but now we have a brand new housemate!
This is Ian! Everybody say, 'Hi Ian!'
Ian is awesome. He cooks food. Nice food. He knows a lot about nice food. This makes him awesome. You know what else makes him awesome? He's a real man, like me and Spidey. I mean, just check this shit out:
HRRGHHHH! MANLY!
Yeah, so I think that pretty much brings us up to date... I've just gone back to UNI after a week's break, which is pretty cool.
OH YEAH, one other exciting thing. I have now got myself a job at Timezone!
I think we all knew that was going to happen eventually.
I'm going to be there at 10:30 today to help out James with a party, so that will be interesting... Wish me luck!
I'll try update this thing more regularly! Though I'd recommend you keep your eye on the Shit blog, I can see myself posting there quite frequently!

I don't use this at all anymore. There's some really old stuff of mine here. In the future, if I want to showcase stuff I've made I'll almost certainly make a page on this blog.
