Shooting bullets!

I never know what I'm going to write about, until I coerce my fingers to do that rhythmical tapping jig that they do on the keyboard. It is usually quite a task..getting my fingers to do that rhythmically tapping jig. And while they're doing that, most often than not, I'm usually hoping that, what's coming out of them will at least be vaguely readable. Since I have nothing in particular to bore you with today, I figured I'd resort to the ever reliable bullets to give you an idea of the random happenings in my life.

Disclaimer: Reader will probably die a fatal death of boredom during the course of this post. If indeed found dead, I am in no way responsible for the remnants of his/her body. His/her soul of course, is probably already on its way to haunt me.

  • Last week I was in the car with my mother when she stopped abruptly in the middle of the road, I looked up from the label of the tissue box I was reading, only to catch a chicken cross the road. A chicken crossing a road. A CHICKEN CROSSING A ROAD!!

  • Google reader happens to be my new best friend. I found her in November, and I've held her hand while walking around school everyday. Literally. Seriously, this tiny blurb does her absolutely no justice, she deserves a post of her own, which hopefully will find its way here sometime in the near future, if I can get off my lazy ass, that is. Translation: School being the Internet for people who didn't get it.

  • Writing an 80 page project report on your internship in the middle of nowhere sure can zap all the energy out of you. Wait a sec, I got that wrong, I actually meant, writing 2.00078 % of an 80 page project report on your internship in the middle of nowhere sure can zap all the energy out of you.

  • Last night I accidentally fell asleep at 9 pm, but got up at approximately 2:30 am and proceeded to sit on the internet for the next hour and a half. I can't believe I'm this addicted. When did this happen?!

  • I gave up the three C's for lent, chocolate, coke and chips. Thank God, easter's coming, there's a tub of chocolate ice cream in the freezer that's just waiting to be devoured.

  • My middle name is procrastination. seriously, I began this post sometime Thursday night!!

  • I own two sand filled animals, that are a couple of some of my most prized possessions. In addition to my insanity and my zero sense of humor, that is. Their names are Lizzie the Lizard and Fiona the Frog, and I keep them next to my computer monitor at home. They actually are a lizard and a frog, but I find that when you suffix a title to a name, it makes it sound a tad grander. Yes, I know that 'the lizard' and 'the frog' aren't exactly titles.

  • Just so you know, I have no clue what I'm typing out. For someone who's never ever gotten drunk in her life, I sure do a good job of acting it. Just wanted to make sure that we were clear on that.

I literally do that finger-tapping thingy everytime I realise it's high time I make a post to avoid losing my already imaginary reading community.
Yes, and I can sing a song of love to Google Reader, complete with an accordian and harmonica duet.
I too find college, mind numbingly, gut wrenchingly boring, and everytime my eye lands on another idiotic drone, I feel like jumping into the nearest lake (and remain there forver).
So, yeah you pretty much scored yourself another reader.

Man, you should have stopped the chicken and asked it why it was crossing the road! That way, you could have solved the most anticipated mystery, "Why did the chicken cross the road?". Damn yaar.

Google Reader is nice. I used it for a year or so but then shifted to a desktop RSS reading application because I didn't want to be logged into my Gmail account all the time. And I like to know about a post as soon as it is posted

You're not the only one addicted to the net my friend. I do that all the time. I go to sleep early sometimes, wake up in the middle of the night and start surfing the internet. It's better too because everybody is asleep and they can't scold you for sitting on the computer. Of course if they wake up halfway and decide to give you a visit and see you sitting in front of the screen smiling at something, they'll surely think you're watching porn. But that's one risk you have to take. :P

And I have a Lazy the lizard too! And it doubles up as a water gun as well. :D

Google reader? No way ... I tried it twice and just didn't find it as friendly as Bloglines.

And as for the chicken crossing the road? Holy cow. You only ever hear about that in jokes. :P

I can't see how anyone could possibly give up chocolate for lent. That would be torture for me.
