Yurkos song of the day: Take me Home - by Phil Collins

Ahoy hoy and welcome to post numero 21. I have yet to been issued a court order by the greater people of the world to stop doing these blogs so here i go again. Where im going though is probably no where very far considering that not a lot has happened to me since the last post so this is gonna be a short one. But hey at least the posts are still coming nice and regular just like the guy who ordered the beans at the Ex-Lax convention.
...
weeeeeelll thats enough highbrow humour for one day so on to the short and sweetish description of events of late.


hmmmm well the basis of my last week has been "studying" for the second parts of the two exams that i have coming up. Thus far i have opened my binder up and looked at one page of chem, and that took me a bloody hour to do! SO yeah the jist of that is that i have no work ethic and are a lazy bastard but meh im sure ill study the night before or something. That or hope that i remeber enough from when my teachers initally taught it. That might work for math, chem on the other hand though i have my doubts (stupid mr lawrence)

Ive decided to start reading this prequel book in the Harry Turtledove series that ive ranted quite a bit about. The reason behind this is mostly because i really cant wait till the latest book comes out and i didnt even know that this one existed up until now. its actually a pretty good read mostly due to the fact that it helps to flesh out alot of the stuff in the latter 6 books (like why Custard is so pissed about losing his brother, why Lincon becomes a socalist, who jeb stuart senior is etc). of course for all of you who have never read any of the books all those points will be moot but if you do wish to read em i reccomend getting this book that im reading now (Called: How Few Remain)before starting on the behmoth of good reading that is the rest of the series.

well other than avoiding the studying and reading books that only i know about the rest of my time has been spent trying to find one god damn little peice of lego that would allow me to finish this stupid project. Incidentally if any of you have a little round grey lego peice with 4 of those circular dealies on top lying around i would be more than happy to take it off your hands considering that it would prevent me from going insane and finally finishing this. On that note of me delving back into my childhood (either due to the stresses of diplomas or that im bored and all my old stuff is around my desk) the other project that im beggining again is my attempt to fully aquire the entire "life and time of Uncle Scrooge" comic series. Back in the day when these were first being released i almost got the entire run of the series, much of that having to do with the fact that these were comic gold. If your able to look beyond the disney setting this stuff was hilarious and still is for that matter. But the main reason that ive started this up is that after going through various old boxes ive realised that a few that i am sure i had have gone missing and that saddens me. So thusly the quest begins! (cue cheap sounding trumpet fan fair).

Hmmmm yes well i r done for today. All i have left to say is blowing 100 bucks in one store on one shopping trip, on junk that you reaaallly dont need, ever, is not a very fun thing to do (contrary to popular belief)

Till Next ramble

The Amazing, Boring Yurko
