Not Living

Well the holidays are over and I went back to school today. Nothing interesting happened as per usual except that we now have a French exchange student in our class. But what about the holidays, what did you do? Where did you go? Did you have lots of fun?
And the answers to those questions which you would undoubtedly be asking are nothing, nowhere and no.

The holidays go for two weeks. I have completely forgotten what I did on the first seven days (although I'm pretty sure there was sleeping, X boxing and the words 'I'm bored' being repeated over and over) but the second week I hardly lived. I read. I read WAY too much. I finished the entire Maze Runner series which are amazing books that I have recently discovered (also found out they're making a movie to be released next year so now I can spoil it for all my friends [insert evil laugh]) I still haven't fished the fourth one (or prequel) yet because it isn't as exciting and there's not enough mystery.

Last Saturday I finished the third one in the series just in time to go to the Wellington Show. That was fun, there was a spinny around octopus like thingy, a spin around and upside down thingy, a turn really fast stick to the walls thingy and a haunted house, which sucked, mainly because it does't have thingy at the end of it's name.

On Sunday a dead sheep puked on me.

But now, as soon as I was going to finish the fourth Maze Runner (which I would have) I am suddenly hit with an English assessment task on the first day of school. We have to have a visual and written response to a war poem. Most of my other class mates are doing dioramas but fancy pants mr show off here (i.e. me) had to come up with the idea of having a stop motion animation movie with Lego that I have to finish in two weeks. Do you know how bloody hard it is to make one of those! You have to take a picture, move the Lego guy a tinny bit, then take another picture and repeat for, like, 20 hours to get a three minute video. And I had chose a long poem didn't I. So far I have made an army truck, a plane and a few characters and that's taken me around six hours for some preposterous reason. Not one photo taken yet.

It is going to be a long, long, long time before I figuratively start living again.

100 Views + Complaining

Well, well well. Here I am on my blog and, believe it or not, the Boring Blog that People Shouldn't Read has over 100 views. Flabbergasted I am, truly and utterly flabbergasted. There were warnings you know. The title, the description and the very fact that this blog is boring. Do you want to know what I felt when I saw the count hit 100, pity.

Most of my pitiful viewers were from countries that don't even speak or read English such as South Korea, India, Ukraine and Germany. And I am fairly certain that at least half the Australian views were from me.

In other news, Doctor Who has finally being aired and I was HIGHLY unimpressed. So unimpressed that that the word highly had to be in capitals and bold font. They were just not written well. The first one was about people being downloaded into the Wi-fi, which I found quite stupid really, and the second one was about an alien girl being sacrificed to a big sun/god thing that got full on a leaf. The graphics weren't as good as previous episodes, there wasn't much to laugh about and near the end of the second one there was a massively over exaggerated speech lasting a good 15 minutes directed to the sun/god ting that  probably couldn't hear them on the account of it being a few thousand kilometres away.

But wait there's more I'm going to complain about (isn't complaining the main point of blogs nowadays).

My Wi-fi. Thankfully I don't get downloaded into it but I still just really dislike my wi-fi. It's a Telstra mobile one and should be 4G, it sometimes gets 3G and is usually always on DC (which sucks).

I am also going to complain about my room mate because complaining has suddenly become the theme of this post. My room mate is my brother and he has always being my room mate. The truly horrible thing about that is that he is a complainer. He complains if I'm on the computer, he complains if I'm reading at night and he complains if I wear something that doesn't go with something else. I am not such a great complainer (this post excluded) and so I let him do what he wants. His is playing his new guitar right now and hardly knows how to play so it's just horrible music. He practically forces me to turn of my light stuck to my bed so I can't read and then he listens to his iPod for an extra three hours (he does play Hamish and Andy podcasts but then I can't get to sleep because I'm always concentrated on it), he claims it helps him sleep.

I'm not expecting that you would read this blog post but I just needed to complain a bit, that's all.

Reasons

Oh Em Gee, a new post from the Boring Blog that People Shouldn't read!
You must all be so excited.

I haven't put up a post for over two months now and I have perfectly good reasons for that.

1. This blog is very boring, to make it more boring I just decided to not touch it for ages.

2. I had school and, surprisingly, a life.

3. (The actual reason) My Google account wanted to 'be more secure' so they wanted my phone number and I wasn't going to give it to them for three reasons:
A) They were going to spam me with Google websites and spam me with spam advertisements that nobody really wants to see.
B) I have a right to stand up to stuff. They will write stories about me because I didn't do what Google told me to do and I will be remembered in history books as 'The Guy who Stood Up to Google'.
C) I don't have a phone.
Only half an hour ago I realised that there was a skip option, it was a real 'face-palm' moment.

4. Holidays! And because the title of this post is 'Reasons', I'm going to give you reasons why holidays made me not blog.
A) My last post was in the holidays and the holidays are coming up so maybe this blog is a holidays only thing because most people get bored in the holidays.
B) I had a few weekends away on holidays.
C) I can't think of another reason why holidays made me not blog.

So now you know why I haven't being blogging. And now, for entertaining reasons (a bit odd on the Boring Blog), I have a photo of me in the U.S.A, at the White House, in the President's chair talking on the phone with Barak Obama beside me.
