10 Hints, Tips, and Notes to Ignore if You Feel Like It

1. Procrastinating means tight deadlines. Unless there are no deadlines. So if you're going to procrastinate, only do it when there are deadlines.

2. Wait that half-hour or hour. If it culminates in something exciting or interesting, then you will have got something good out of the wait. If it resolves in one darkening pixel, then you know you're patient.

3. Find the unwritten social rules. Write them down.

4. Radians are a measure of angles in fractions of pi. Degrees are a measure of angles that are not fractions of pi. They are both set ups on your calculator.


5. Always accept chocolate unless you have any reason to suspect that it is laced with drugs. And don't offend drabblers either.

6. You can manage to read over 400,000 words in a night. What you can't do is remember it.

7. Don't argue with that classmate about sarcasm. You're so obviously right about it, after all.
Sarcasm aside, you only notice it when it's about as obvious as a dancing giraffe in a brightly-coloured leotard doing the Macarena right up close to your face. It otherwise isn't there or just washes over your head.

8. You can write sarcasm without meaning to, so it's obvious that you aren't cut out for it.

9. "Who can't take a joke?!" when referring to yourself or anyone else should be countered with "Thousands of people really, from those who can't recognise one to those who just think that kind of thing stupid in the extreme," rather than silence.

10. You can make the future brighter or you can make it really horrible. Your choices determine what will happen. You can plan but that doesn't mean that those plans will ever be put into action. Your life depends on you for the most part.

International Woman's Day

Interesting...

I don't think there's a men's day, we should add one in so they can't whinge about it like little kids.

The most remarkable adults in my life excluding relatives have tended to be teachers. They say, well, write, 'If you can read this, thank a teacher.' and I will, if I ever become one.

If all of the males in the world died right now, then the women could still carry on life with sperm banks etc. and life would go on because the new males would survive and thrive. If all of the females died right now then goodbye humanity.

I have a female body. Certain parts of it are unlikely to be used because I really don't want them to.

Period.

(I have no idea what I was going to write next, oh well)

If I ever want a man it'll be one who can do all the home management while I go to work. But that is the question.

Ladies, you can be anything you want to be, whether it be a scientist, doctor, fisherman, well, women, or a housewife. You choose your role and if you want to be a housewife that is as good as if you want to be a neuroscientist, because, after all, it is your choice.

So choose wisely and let's, uh, celebrate?

A Spot of Music

I made this one earlier.

The site tool called Tonematrix is pretty cool and easy to use - all you need is your mouse. It's one instrument though, so if you don't like it's melodious notes I doubt it's for you.

Have fun!
