I feel sullied and unusual

[ithika]

You know (Well. You probably don't actually.) how I watch a chosen DVD collection of mine over and over again during folio week? Well, my chosen play/repeat DVD set for this Semester's folio week was Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl and Dead Man's Chest.
"Mr Gibbs, I feel sullied and unusual..." is possibly my favourite line from Dead Man's Chest, although I'm not sure. It was however definitely the most appropriate one to sum up the whole folio week experience.
And how did it go? Well, well enough I suppose. My model was... well. I daresay that it may cause blindness, it is just that ugly. Which is a cause for concern for me. Oh, and watching Pirates of the Caribbean over and over didn't help ease the ache in my mushy fangirl heart that comes from STILL having not seen At World's End. As a result, I won't be reading my friends page (properly) or er, using THE INTERWEB until I have seen it, because damn it I've been diligently spoiler free for over a year now, damned if I'm going to let Folio Week open the gate to spoilers.
I didn't see it this weekend because I have a grand total of three dollars in my bank account at the moment. Tragedy of tragedies, I know. This is because folio cost me like 250 fucking dollars. That word being used for stressing the point here rather than implying anything else. >:( That is my look of disapproval.
So er, I won't be around much. OH RIGHT

I had a question for everyone.
Can anyone download past exams from the library at the moment? Because I can't download the past exams for my history unit (ARCT 2210 if you're intrigued, which I doubt), and this makes me a sad panda. Should I just call the uni and have a cry at them, or something? I don't know. I would really like it if things would just work, or if teachers would just do their job. Yeah. I really hope those SURF sheets are anonymous, you know?

I just downloaded a pile of awesome addons for Firefox. I love Firefox.
Um.
That's all.
Oh I caught Dialga. Sweet. I called it Tempest, because Maelstrom was too long. I'm not sure it's the right name for it yet though. And it doesn't fit with my trend of naming them all after appropriately linked gods/mythological creatures. Or stuff that's just linked to their name. Yes. Like my Empoleon is called Admiral and my Staraptor (Starmie) is called Celeste. Celeste as in Celestial. Yes. My Rapidash is called Epona, not only named after Epona from Legend of Zelda, but there was also a Celtic goddess called Epona. She was also a horse, so yay. Golem is called Tecton as in Tectonic, Luxray is called Sphinx, which was kind of a play on Shinx and it's catlike appearance. It's not really linked but it'll do. I did have an Alakazam which I called Mavia, named after a Greek goddess of dreams (minor deity), but she's been ditched now in favour of Dialga. I never liked the Abra-Kadabra-Alakazam chain anyway, it was just there because I needed a psychic to balance out my team. Now I have slightly too much Steel, but that's okay. Dialga is pretty badass so it'll make up for it.

Right I'm going to study now. Shhhhhhhh.

Sullied isn't that kind of dirty by the way.

They aren't there, but sometimes lecturers won't put them up if they are lazy and re-using last year's exam paper.

[bloodied-aura.livejournal.com]

:'( This makes me sad. I'm fairly sure they are using last year's paper though, but I can't donwload any of the others either. Cry cry cry. Do you know if the library keeps hard copies? (Totally downloading next semester's right now)

Has the unit code changed since last year? Many of my units have changed names every year since I started.

[bloodied-aura.livejournal.com]

No, it hasn't. But thanks :)
They're all there, but all of the files are corrupted or something. It seems odd.

And units changing their names also seems funny. Silly uni O_o

You know, I never read tags. I should, from now on. Maybe I'll read tags first, entry second. Why?

So, in your last big paragraph, I was reading all these things you caught/have and I'm like -- "What the hell? Is she an exotic pet dealer? Why have I never heard of any of these things?! I'm in PetSmart all the time! Is she foreign? Am I missing something? Ghaaaaaaaan!" ... *googles Starmie* ... "*facepalm*

Duhrhrhrhr. I'm smart.

[bloodied-aura.livejournal.com]

Haha, well, tags don't generally tell you anything that the entry doesn't... It could just be my fault for being vague, hehe. :)

I only wish I was that interesting! That would be awesome. :D I always wanted a pet lizard... Ooo.

Hehe. Naww... I'm just crazy O___o

P.S "Ghaaaaaaan!" as in "Khaaaaaaaan!"? People keep making that joke so I'm curious >_> <_<

The library is a noob.

Nothing works in the library! They say they have books and then they hide the ones you want! They say they have exam papers but they deny you access!

You should be able to get them if they come up on the site. If it's just a matter of downloading then try another library computer! They can be temperamental. I'm going to get some on Friday. Hopefully mine work.

[bloodied-aura.livejournal.com]

YES. It is. A gigantic concrete noob. With a stupid cafe that you can't really get into or out of. Except by an amazing navigational feat or by a leap... of faith (or length).

They also wrap the coolest looking ones in plastic and stop you from looking at them at your leisure!

I'm on my home computer though :'( Atlhough I wouldn't trust library computers at all. No sir.
Try the ones on one of the secret study levels. They seem to be newer. Yess. Godspeed!
