Things are fun.

Playing Rock Band for a night is fun. However that was mainly on vocals, and so was quite throat-pain-inducing. Especially singing the first half of Run to the Hills at least four times in a row, and not actually finishing.

Castle Crashers is fun. Especially as I only paid £9.00 for the points. Good bargain, I feel. I also love this song.

The songs in Camp Rock are fun. However, the oh-so-obvious canned laughter plus predictable plot is not.

Signs in Burger King are fun. That's it.

Time Machine finishing backing up for the first time in five weeks is fun. Well, Mac-saving, especially if I have another kernel panic.

Pre-ordering Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts and discovering I get the free XBLA port of the original Banjo Kazooie is fun. Especially as I love Banjo Kazooie.

Something are quite as fun. Like kernel panics, Digicook.co.uk being spammed heavily, and not posting here in a week.

Still, all is good.

Rock Band on Xbox Live

is not so fun, actually, when you get half way through songs and then they quit, just beacuse they are losing.

Especially when you're 7 minutes into Green Grass & High Tides.

I mean, seriously.

Rock Band on Xbox Live

is quite fun, actually.

Especially when you're paired up with the same person for six battles in a row.

Not so fun when I have actually lost all but one of them, but hey.

Yayy.

I passed my Open University course.

Yayyy.

I'm happy with that.

And now I'm 1/36th of the way to a degree in science. Unfortunately, I don't want one of those.

Hmm.

I just achieved it, which could be better, but I'm still happy with it.

Congrats to Lawrence too. =)

Now I've just got to remove my SK185 references from my social networks. I just need to remember where.

My Fair Lady

should be fun. Really quite fun, I have to say. Singing-tacular.

However, yet another of my castors has snapped off, which means that I can lean quite a lot. I don't want to. But it's forced. MARKUS looks nice though, birthday maybe? Who knows.

Yumm.

That surprise meal + the meal + the dessert + some music was yummy/entertaining.

I'd do it again. =)

Yayy.

Being able to see text in Dead Rising is amazing.

I bought a Yorkie today. That was amazing.

I had a small, not big enough to be an actual Jelly Tot, but still a Jelly Tot none-the less. That was amazing.

I played WotLK beta without lag earlier today. That was amazing.

I preordered WotLK today. That was amazing. (Well, that's not strictly true, as that cost money that I really don't have. 'Twill be amazing when it comes out though.)

I wore some of my new socks today. People thought they were amazing.

Now I'm going to have a curry, sing a bit, watch some Scrubs and Friends, some WotLK beta action, read some Harry Potter, and maybe pwnt up some zombies in Dead Rising.

Hmmyeahh.

Well, that was good fun.

Drinking game was fun.

Drinking was fun.

Pesticide spray at people was not fun.

Ball games was fun.

Ten minutes of the Cha-Cha slide was fun.

All in all, quite fun.

Hmmyes.

If last week (well, 168 hours) was good…

Then the next 168 should be amazing.

Well, 16 free's probably won't happen again, but who knows.

Still, amazing week to go, yess.

Today, well, the past 24 hours, was good.

First I did some vacuuming to make my floor not coated in crumbs. Something productive in the morning, it's quite Oh My Gok.

Well, then it was school. Particle Physics to, erm, yes. Human Computer Interfaces to, erm, also yes.

Then I came home and now I have access to a HDTV in the household. I never believed gaming in HD was so pretty. It's quite a step up from a 17" 4:3 SDTV to a 26" 16:9 HDTV. It's also a very pretty step.

Then I got lots of email. I like email. Then I read through my feeds. That wasn't so fun, as I had 750-odd items. Some fun stuff in there, though.

Then we went out as a family for a meal for my parent's anniversary. Awh.

Then I come home to do some coursework, which is done, -ish, if I could access myClassLink it'd be sorted.

Then I started my homework, will finish it P1 tommorow.

Then I filled out my correct timetable for Jackie.

Then I downloaded three episodes of Big Brother USA, 900 MB of music and thought I'd preload the 3.0.2 WotLK patch through the background.

Then, quite weirdly, I had an email inviting me to the WotLK beta. Which means I can see Northrend for all it's prettyness for myself. Yayyyyy. =)

And then I went to bed. Maybe.
