Today is Hallowe'en. I'm rather depressed that nobody came to my house to ask for candy so I could traumatise them with my creepy grin. However, that's pretty normal, seeing that Hallowe'en was an ancient Celtic ritual/festival/holiday/et cetera which was merely so the animals could survive through the Winter. In Australia it isn't Winter, so we don't really celebrate it. I remember when I went trick or treating two years ago. It was awesome. All the free lollies and that stick of ice cream
Although it is rather unconventional for someone to post two blog posts in one day, I've decided to do exactly that. Why? Well I'm merely saddened by the fact I can't even mine in Dwarf Fortress. For those who do not know what Dwarf Fortress is, it is basically a simulator of fantasy life created by one guy and his brother, just like Runescape, except that this game is much more complicated than RS and probably works on a smaller budget. However, the graphics are, well, ASCII. Anyway, I can'
And again I put up a random blog post for no real reason, this time because I've ran out of ideas for my comedy. Oh sure, I have some random plots in mind, such as making references to Spaceballs, the return of PIZZARISONIKA MAKULIANA EXCEPTIONALPERSONOFAWESOMENESS, who is actually a real character from one of my old comedies, and something about declaring war on the Shady Beings, who I still haven't incorporated into my story. However, I'll probably get off my butt and start writing up the ch
One of my homework tasks at school was to compile a list of the ten tallest mountains in Australia. I think most of my class got out an atlas to look for the ones on the mainland and Tasmania. I, due to being bored and deciding to look up the Heard and McDonald Islands, which are two uninhabited islands in the middle of the Indian Ocean that are Australian territories, found out that they have the only two volcanoes in Australia. One of the two volcanoes was one of the tallest mountains in our t
Melbourne (the one in Victoria, Australia, not the one over in Florida) has really strange weather. I mean, on Monday and Tuesday it was rather cold, then on Wednesday and Thursday it was boiling, which means more than 30 degrees celsius, which is about 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Today however, it started pouring down. And according to the forecast, it will tomorrow as well, but will be sunny on Sunday. Wait, why I am giving you guys a weather forecast?
Having recently discovered that I can make a blog, a miniature voice in my mind said: "Hey, we can make blogs! That's awesome! Let's make one." Obviously due to the fact that my subconscious wanted a blog, I couldn't actually say no. So here I am with this first blog entry. Now what to talk/rant about? Ah yes, I have recently gotten addicted to Discworld, and I am slowly working my way through the series. I've nearly finished Men at Arms, so there's about 20 or so more books to go. -Hube
