RE: What a year

The last thing I’m going to do is complain about this last year.
I learnt invaluable lessons.
I learnt to be a president you don’t have to be bright at all, much less graduate. On a tad of a downer I learnt to get anywhere you have to be a good people person, which I am totally inept in that department.
I learnt you can start a war with propaganda, perpetuate it by not actually reporting anything but what your opinions and beliefs are and then lie to justify the blood spilt.
I watched a beloved franchise of mine turn to complete rubbish by overly digitalizing it, and then realize a short time after, all six of the films are a commentary of our modern history.
I saw for the first time in my life the things I consider “normalcy” fall completely down due to our own stupidity and over expectations.
And all of this contained in a reality that isn’t even ours, within a mind that doesn’t really even think.
Only one word describes this....pure wootage!
Well ok...two words.

Well, my year has been pretty good. I, like apparently everyone else, went back to University, studying a BEd in Secondary Teaching and a BSc in Mathematics. Also doing a Minor in Security and Counterterrorism studies, which is fun.
As such, I am on holidays until late February, so if anyone wants help on any productions, let me know.
Almost finished a Dalek I started to build, which should be done soon. Same goes with the R5 unit.
Be well, all.
Andrew

I got on a bus today, a regular bus, nothing fancy. Although strangely it was empty, so I sat, alone, listening to some music on my mp4 player until the next stop. Where an old man got on. Of course he naturally sits next to me (being the only space left on this empty bus) but I don't mind. Now, about 10 minutes later I realize that he's talking to me so I pop one headphone out, something about when he was in the army in 1962 or something. Almost always in-audible. Anyway, no sooner than I took my headphone out, he gets up and off the bus so I put my headphone back in and watch this man stumble away muttering something about how green it is this year. Which gets me thinking, 'why are all Transperth buses have green on them' I pondered this for about 5 minutes, coming to the conclusion that its one of 2 things. That being green will give it a more environmently friendly feel to the whole mass transport system or the second possibility that green is a colour thats very cool and calm. Which ironically is not what most bus drivers are like. They moan and groan and give the impression that they think that they're better than the rest of us because they control where and how fast the bus goes. Speaking of which, this bus was over halfway to the destination and still I was the lone sole passenger. Watching the streets go by I realized that buses really cant be making money, which is probably a bad thing in the long run, causing higher fares and giving those drivers more sense of power. With power costing as it does these days it's surprising more people don't use other means of illuminating their houses or entertaining themselves. Like that old favorite, eye spy. Why do Spy's bother, I mean really. Take a real spy, not one of these James Bond fantasies.. They cant tell anyone, cant reveal it and certainly cant fly off a cliff using a glider made of a used hankey and a half-dozen match sticks to evade capture. Heck, if you even attempt to defend yourself these days, you can be taken away by the authorities if you cause them any actual harm. I've never understood the feeling of purposly wanting to harm someone for no good reason. I guess its down to the personal definition of the persons morality that's in question. But that isn't enough, you can and probably will go to jail if you take the law into your own hands. Although, being captured and imprisoned must be one of the worst tortures I could imagine, I cant say I have a huge threshold for pain etc, but I think just being held in a cell, alone, hungry, dirty and probably going mad with boredom would be the end of me rather than conventional torture. Which is probably similar to the realization that I'm still on this slow, silver & green, totalitaristic people moving, anti-spy delusion busting machine.. and I've missed my stop. So I get off, alone still I realize that this rant possibly could sum up my year...
But if I look back at it, although all of those things, I still kind of had fun in a odd sort of way...

Are you a sock of Woody Allen?
I imagined that whole thing in a neurotic little Jewish new Yorker's voice!

Are you sure?
My year is beginning to finish the way it started!
And today I find out I'm being transferred to another store. Well, more like a long term relief, but still...
