Broken, left ashamed, bare

Daisy blogs her poetry. Read some here. We wrote a poem together a while back, taking turns to write a few lines. It was like a dance, or maybe a battle.

Broken, left ashamed, bare,
open for the world to see.
To judge,
to try to understand,
to love, to help.
Reaching for a moment
pure enough to have meaning.
Untainted from the world.
Thankful, clean, Awake.

The cocoon ripped open.
That ray of light,
blinding, peeling our eyes open,
making us face the truth,
maybe too soon.
Painfully beautiful.
Now restored, now healed,
it’s a joy to be
broken, left ashamed, bare.

Some Google searches that have lead here so far this year:

  • dust floating in a sunshine – poetic…
  • how to write crazy scentences - Ironic. Should’ve started by searching for ‘how to spell scentences’.
  • the crazy man i met – do I know you?
  • practising conversations in the mirror – Whatever floats your boat.
  • my girlfriend shaved my lehs – I’m sorry to hear that.
  • beware of false prophets who smile a lot – good tip!
  • who are australia’s weirdest people? - check the comments section.
  • savage chickens repeat until death

How’s that last one? I’m speechless.

Channel Surf the Internet with StumbleUpon

If you are still in school, are busy, have a job, or have a life, do not read this post.

My family hate the way I watch TV. I channel surf, and I’m very good at it. I haven’t watched an ad while in control of the remote for a long time.

Stumbleupon.com is a way to channel surf the internet. You download a toolbar and tell it your interests – then, any time you feel the need, you just click the ‘Stumble’ button and it will take you to a random site ‘stumbled upon’ by another user. The sites are usually pretty cool because someone else with your interests has to have liked it for you to see it.

Be careful not to waste your life though.

Stumbleupon – 21st century procrastination.

[Note: all the posts on this site have 'Share This' links at the bottom. If you one, you can use that to 'stumble' it and share it with other people. :) ]

They Didn’t Study

I’m getting back results from my trials this week. It reminded me of this great collection of answers from students who should have studied.

The End of The Internet

Addicted to the internet? Wondering where the last few months of your life went? Always telling yourself “Just one more click“?

It’s time to end it. Click here.

These guys have got balls:

[Okay, okay, I promise never to resort to such low humour again, happy?]

The World is WEIRD! (Part 3)

The World is WEIRD: Part 1; Part 2; who cares?

This is the final installment of this series – I think its the weirdest of all. If you need any more proof that the world is weird, you need to spend more time on youtube.

Weirder than time, weirder than waves and particles, weirder even than Dr Quantum himself:
Its a poodle (human?) exercise video!

I love it that she acts like there is nothing strange going on at all!

What’s the weirdest video you’ve seen on youtube? Leave a comment! (Links are better than embedded players)

Not a Review of Harry Potter

Harry, Hermione, and RonIf you are at all like me, you were probably sick of reviews of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows before you even read a single one.

So this is not a review. It is an opinion:

Its good. Very good.

It was delightfully suspenseful, astonishingly emotional, cruelly exciting, and, best of all, deliciously satisfying.

 And that is all I have to say about it. If you want to know more, start on page 1.

The most infuriating part of the whole thing is that I want to discuss every intricate turning of the plot with everyone I know, but of course no-one wants the ending spoiled. Its driving me mad in a curiously fun sort of way.

Have you read it? What is your opinion? (Anything remotely resembling a spoiler will be stunned, chopped up into tiny pieces, and fed to the Crumple-Horned Snorkack, and its owner will be told, on no uncertain terms, that he or she is not a very pleasent person!)

Coming up on TheCrazyAustralian.com:
A crazy aussie turns 18, more summer-loving, moody weather, the ressurection of the joke, and almost definitely more. Stay tuned.

Hungry for Harry?

Harry PotterI spent most of the day today avoiding a few guys who had read the photos of the stolen Harry Potter (stuffing your hands in your ears and singing loudly also works).

But if you, like me, absolutely cannot wait the 16 hours left until the next book comes out, this site (which is 100% spoiler free) has some interesting ‘conspiracy-theory’ articles about things like:

  • How could Snape use the killing curse if he didn’t hate Dumbledore? (Yet was it the curse that killed him… or the fall?)
  • Is Harry a horcux for Voldemort?
  • Is Fawkes a horcrux for Dumbledore?
  • Is Neville really so clumsy?
  • What’s so special about the invisability cloak?

Also tomorrow: my 18th!

There is no Dawkins

I’ve got some sweet posts coming up this week, but in the meantime, here’s a wonderfully clever skit that uses Richard Dawkins arguments against God… to prove there is no Dawkins. Enjoy!
