So I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing that there are lots of things that I reckon I'm quite capable of learning and doing, but I'm too lazy to really put the effort into learning and doing them. Among this list of things is learning to dance, that thing where you roll a coin over your fingers, and a bunch of songs that I could probably learn the solo to if I really put in the effort. I'm convinced that this list could go on and on, but I can't be bothered thinking it up.
Actually wait no, I'm pretty sure it's a bad thing.
There's a foil Dove chocolate wrapper on my table and on the inside it says
"A diamond is a piece of coal that finished what it started."
If someone could explain that to me, that'd be good coz I don't get it.

Faceplant Pavement
Since my 'deep' blogs (COZ THEY ARE DEEP) are fail, I'm just going to talk about whatever.
I'm going to blog about the same subject as Stephen but give my own take on it. No doubt I'm going to make a lot less sense, but hurrrr.
Anyway, we had an afterparty at Patrick's. I brought my formal stuff so we could take photos and it'd look like an actual formal afterparty as opposed to a get-together at his house the night after the formal, but we didn't. Patrick said in his email that we didn't have to.
So yeah I got to Patrick's at about 8 30 ish, and by that time everyone was out of the pool and sitting around a table eating chips. So I sat down too and we just talked and yeah. Aw. There was a really stupid in-joke that went on through the whole experience, coz we got the feeling that Brian was bugged, and so we couldn't slip up any information about Patrick's secret hydroponic Cousin and WRX growing stash when we were talking to him. Turns out that he wasn't, and also that it was a really stupid joke.
After we ate steak sandwich thingies and cleared up a bit, we went back inside and settled down to play Guitar Hero 4 until we got sick of it, which is starting to become a sort of recurring theme with get-togethers at other people's houses now. After a bit I changed into my board shorts because I still wanted to take a dip into the pool before the night was over because I thought it'd be fun, but it was really cold and I got out pretty much right away, after swimming a couple rounds around to eat the Christmas beetles that were in the pool. After that, I went back inside and dripped on Patrick's furniture and big floor carpet while we played lots and lots of Guitar Hero. After we got really sick of it, we played a bunch of other games, I can't remember in what order. I think it was Guitar Hero, big blank where we sat there and did pretty much nothing, Halo 3, and then FIFA and Fight Night and I can't remember.
At about 2 20 Simon and Stephen tried going to sleep, while we started playing Guitar Hero again, HURRRR. Then after that Brian and Pat played that basketball game that I can't remember the name of. At this point (3:30) I curled up on the cool spinny couch chair thing that Patrick has and went to sleep. I woke up at about 5-something, and I was extremely cold because we didn't close the glass door to Pat's back yard after I came back in from the pool. I don't think anyone noticed because it was getting stuffy in the room and the wind was nice. However, not at 3:30. I was also really stiff because I was curled up the entire night. I figured, hey, this is how I normally sleep, but I didn't consider the fact that after I fall asleep, I probably stretch out a bit. After spending the entire night in the exact same position, it felt REAL good when I got up and stretched. I sat there for a little bit and then I think I went back to sleep, though I didn't fall asleep properly. Then everyone else woke up except Brian and Simon, and we just kinda sat there because we were tired. I think. Then me, Stephen, Simon and Pat went out to the pool because we thought it'd be a mad idea to jump in in the morning even though it was still really cold, while I went and got changed into my board shorts. I came back out and jumped in and it turns out it was actually really really cold (HURR) so I got back out. Then Simon jumped in, and he got back out too, and Simon and Patrick went back inside while me and Stephen sat by the pool (we didn't get in because it was too cold, but we were sitting in the sun) and talked about deep things. Then some other people came out and joined us, and then it somehow turned into an intense stand-off where if we let our guard down, we'd get hit hard by balls, or sprayed at menacingly with the water gun. That's actually a lot more annoying than it sounds. Then after a bit we dropped it and started drying off, though Patrick started trying to whip me with his wet towel which spurred Simon to smack me with his, which hurt a LOT. So we went inside and then decided to walk out to the park, and also stop by Quix to get some food, or Maccas, to get some food, or something. We walked to the park and walked for a while before coming to the conclusion that we had nothing to do. So we walked to Quix, bought slurpees, and walked back to Pat's, where we played Fight Night again, and everyone got pwnt by Brian. Then after that we started playing NBA again, where I got smacked by Brian, who then played Simon while me and Pat went on the laptop and tried to get a game called Enjoyable Horse Racing to load, which turned out to be the stupidest, shittiest game ever. Then I played Patrick in NBA and it was tight but he won. Then we packed up Brians stuff, and then I can't even remember what we did after that, because it's quite possible that me and Stephen got picked up by my mum.
I realise I left out a LOT, such as what Benguyen did the whole night. I think he was just watching, and sometimes played Fight Night and Guitar Hero drums, and he went home just before the pool in the morning. SORRY BEN! And yeah, that was pretty much the day.
This was an unnecessarily long blog. Maybe I should write more blogs where I go into little stupid details that no one really wants to read but they do anyway because they think there might be something worth reading if they read on, but then they get disappointed. HURRRRRRRRRR. This thing has no 'preview'.
