New things, old things and future things

During the school holidays I had the wonderful opportunity to do lots of things I've never done before. I turned up for my first court hearing, and despite how formal and respectable a Court of Law seems, the lawyers/magistrates/registrars were joking around before and during my hearing. Also, the waiting room outside was filled with bogans and crackheads which left me with no sense of belonging.
I'm also seeing a 'natural healer' who's clearly a gypsy trying to consume my youth. She makes me drink some weird concoction and I have to do acupuncture every week, which I've never tried before.
I also got a crepe at Mothers Crepe which was pretty awesome. PS I have coupon for their stuff, so ask me if you want one.
I also went jewellery shopping a couple months ago and went into one of those high class ones, where everything is white and only old people work there. They even had an old school scale used to weigh the diamonds and shit. Then I went to a more mainstream store and it suddenly seemed really cheap. Then I went to an accessory store and found the true meaning to cheap. After going to that super expensive store and realising one ring is worth more than me, it put perspective on value for me. And I've also decided to never get married cos that shit is waaaaay overpriced. I'll get a Burger Ring or something.

Lots of people have asked me where names/nicknames come from. Starting with 'Bob'. Quote A. Chin: "it was back in the first weeks of Year 7 on the Carlingford services. Think Fifi asked what your name was, and you answered Bob. Then Fifi introduced you to everyone as Bob. Think the name stuck ever since." This was after I asked him where the hell my name came from since I'd forgotten myself.
Gamers have also asked me quite often where 'tadfg' comes from. Well the first time I made a gaming account it was a Runescape account. Since I had no names in my head, I just mashed the keyboard and tadfg popped out. So I've used it ever since.

I saw an awesome quote by some junior on Facebook: "If you keep comparing today to the past, you will never improve. The only way to improve is to compare today to your vision of the future". His name is Bob so I'm not surprised he's so smart. I Googled it just to check if it was original and I found no similar results. Not bad junior boy, not bad.

I bet most people have been thinking over the last few months what they hope to do after the HSC. I too have been thinking this, and so I made a short list:

• All you can eat buffet with friends/eating competition
  
• Horror movie marathon
• Oddball marathon
• Start a new MMORPG
• Grow a moustache
• Empty out my anime 'plan-to-watch list'
  
• Find the seven dragonballs

One of those is obviously pretty impossible. Every time I watch something, my plan-to-watch list just gets longer.

My advice for those stressed during HSC, play some Magical Banana!

"Magical Banana! Banana reminds me of yellow! Hai!"
"Yellow reminds me of the flames on that day..."
