New Placebo Single: For What It's Worth [Apr. 21st, 2009|12:20 am]
[Current Music |Placebo: For What It's Worth]

The end of the century
I said my goodbyes
For what it's worth
I always aimed to please
But I nearly died

For what it's worth
Come on lay with me
'Cause I'm on fire
For what it's worth
I tear the sun in three
To light up your eyes

For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth

Broke up the family
Everybody cried
For what it's worth
I have a slow disease
That sucked me dry
For what it's worth
Come on walk with me
Into the rising tide
For what it's worth
Filled a cavity
Your god shaped hole tonight

For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth

*tetris music*


No one cares when you're out on the street
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
No one cares when you're down in the gutter
Got no friends, got no lover

No one cares when you're out on the street
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
No one cares when you're down in the gutter
Got no friends, got no lover

For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover
For what it's worth
Got no lover

Got no friends got no lover


There's no tour dates for September yet which is when they like to visit australia,,,,, here's hoping.

[Current Music |NIN - Ghosts I & II]

I've been working on my second last essay for undergrad over the last week. Slowly piece by piece its coming together in my mind.

In any other circumstance I'd have finished it by now. I rediscovered NIN Ghosts (Soundtrack to daydreams) and feel today will be reasonably productive. I have it all pictured in my head but maybe need to put something down so as to have a rough plan to follow.

Intro:
Introduce topic - Does cannabis cause psychosis,
Introduce popular belief - cannabis causes psychosis
Introduce argument - cannabis does not cause psychosis
Body - Argue various ideas
1 - cannabis can lead to a psychotic episode in predisposed people
2 - people predisposed to psychosis are believed to be predisposed to smoke marijuana
3 - people presenting with marijuana psychosis have also been taking amphetamines in the majority of cases
4 - marijuana doubles the risk of psychosis in these predisposed people, risk rate goes from 1% lifetime risk to 2% lifetime risk
5 - marijuana has been shown to be an effective antipsychotic
6 - rates of schizophrenia have been decreasing
7 - THC content has increased 10fold in the last 30 years
8 - if THC content increases wouldnt there be a surge in schizophrenia diagnoses? not the opposite?
9 - marijuana can be used to alleviate depression, a risk factor for psychosis
10 - marijuana can also be used to reduce harm to stroke victims
11 - marijuana is the least addictive of all drugs, 1/3 less addictive than tobacco and 5% less addictive than alcohol
12 - schizophrenia patients have an 80% chance of smoking cigarettes
13 - alcohol addiction increases schizophenia risk to 6%, 3x higher than marijuana - alcohol% content has remained stable
14 - the most at risk for marijuana induced psychosis are those that smoke first time before 15yo and have been victims of sexual abuse
15 - 33.6% of australians report having used cannabis yet schizophrenia rates remain at 1%

not bad so far, im presenting a pretty strong case against marijuana causing psychosis and would also like to talk about the risk of harms from alcohol being well above a 2% risk factor (6% risk for schizophrenia alone).

will also be presenting the case for decriminalisation of low potency bush marijuana to be regulated at a government level as those who want to use drugs will and if there is a safer option its the governments responsibility to provide it.

time to get busy

Today's Entry [Apr. 7th, 2009|10:37 am]
[Current Location |Uni GP]
[Current Mood | working]
[Current Music |Didnt bring any :(]

I am at uni with a bunch of lecture notes and books studying up for an exam this afternoon: Drug and alcohol studies- Harm Reduction.

I know I'll pass which is nice but I'd like to get all the points so I'm gonna keep studyin', also Marie is asleep and not answering her phone and I was meant to go to her place to study. I also thought I had an appt with my Psychologist but she doesn't work today so I'm booked in to see her Thursday morning, I will check now if there is a japanese class that day as I have to make up the class I'm missing Friday on account of Jesus being crucified. This is because he did not wear eyeliner.

I like that its the second month of autumn, it means that soon I'll be able to wear the hoodie in the picture, its my favourite. Even more favourite than my trenchcoat but less favourite than my sexy coat.

I hate being at uni, Damn you Marie, DAMN YOUUUUUUUU.

I'm gonna hit post now as this is a little distracting.

Supanova [Apr. 4th, 2009|04:16 pm]
[Current Mood | sleepy]
[Current Music |whirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr]

Supanova was awesome,  surprisingly some of the cos-gayers werent HORRIBLE. A couple even deserve description under the adjective 'Cute'. Not sure which ones, i just know they were there somewhere.


Jhonen Vasquez was really interesting and funny to talk to / listen to. I asked him in my nicest voice "can u please make more zim" and he replied with "fuck you" i flipped him off and he spent the next 10 minutes explaining to me and everyone else there will be no zim when I pouted he mimicked it and then "gobbled it up" with a 'nyum nyum nyum'  and feeding actions... quite hilarious (Soooo cuuuuute), but there u go, no more zim, ever. was going to get his autograph but the line was too long and i couldnt be arsed.
other than that  i am still hungover from last nite and my feet are sore from today. I cant wait to get a hold of some of jhonen's newer work but im in no particular hurry,so i guess I can wait but  i think having heard him talk and having had him swear at me (and listenning to him talk about his work for an hour) i can appreciate his older stuff on a newer level. he is a twisted son of a bitch :P

blah blah blah


i bought some magic cards and sam bought I feel sick, walked around, spent the majority of the day looking at shiny things and trying to shake off a hangover.

more blah blah

the end...

And I, I, I won’t stop until I’m done, done, done,
You, you, you are getting in the way, way, way,
And I, I, I have nothing left to say, say, say…

I, I, I, I, I will brush off all the dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt,
And I, I, I, I, I will pretend it didn’t hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt,
You, you, you, you, you are a black and heavy weight, weight, weight, weight, weight, weight, weight,
And I, I, I, I, I will not participate, pate, pate, pate, pate, pate, pate, pate…

Dream brother, My killer, My lover
Dream brother, My killer, My brother

I, I, I will battle for the Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun,
’cause, I, I, I have stared down the barrel of a gun, gun, gun, gun,
No fun, you, you, you, you, you are a cheap and nasty, fake, fake, fake, fake, fake,
And I, I, I, I, I am the bones you couldn’t break, break, break, break, break, break, break, break…

Dream brother, My killer, My lover

[Current Music |A23: 30000 Feet.]

Tomorrow  I'm picking up some baby rainforest scorpions (Liocheles). I will have a few to give away. They fit on a 5c piece at the moment but will grow to about 10cm.

One already has a home. So depending on how many I feel like giving away theres still a few more. If you want one comment here. First in.

[Current Mood | awesome]
[Current Music |NIN - Gave Up]

So,

I got 21/25 for the calculation component of my statistics exam. On Friday I will find out what I got for the multiple choice. I need 4/30 to pass. *crosses fingers* I wonder whether my percentage or grade will transfer over to QUT? At QUT a credit is from 65% but at UQ a credit is 70.1%. I am sure I will have 65% overall but probably not 70.1 so hoping its percentages.

still, a pass means my Summer of Statistics Hell wasnt a waste of time ^_^; 4/30? piece of cake.

I win...

I just watched the "Ginger Kids" episode of Southpark. ROFLMAO. Best episode ever.
"This disease is called Gingervitis and it occurs, because, ginger kids have no souls."
hahahahha.... They got it wrong tho, typically ginger kids have pink-red skin, not pale. it actually goes a purpley shade if u get them angry!

anyways this entry wasnt intended to take cheap shots at gingers, rather it was to brag about my pass / possible credit for 2nd level statistics. Now i have 4 electives till graduation, this could be either june or november depending on whether or not I can be bothered studying full time. Following graduation of this course I will study one of the following:
* Master of Science
* Honors / Post grad in psychology
* post grad diploma in nursing
* post grad diploma in secondary school teaching
* nothing, I will take my degree and move to Japan.

Minasan ja!

[Current Mood | Fearful of Scorpion Undies]

Somewhere in my bedroom is a scorpion, loose running around. Its escaped its tank and this means every morning for the rest of my life i have to shake out my underwear to make sure there is no scorpion hiding in them. :S

This leaves 2 adult Urodacus Manicatus, 1 Adult Liocheles and 1 baby Liocheles. Somewhere (in my underwear drawer i bet) is another baby Liocheles.

Maybe I should just stop wearing undies?

this reminds me, the Liocheles I gave to my brother recently had 16 babies. Does anyone want a baby scorpion? grows to about 10cm. liocheles have a short tail and rarely sting but they have massive claws to shred other bugs. they are very friendly.

on another note I have my statistics exam tomorrow morning, ive been in overdrive the last few days studying like a study machine.

I better not put on scorpion undies tomorrow morning...

bye bye

Statistics Hell Attack Plan [Jan. 30th, 2009|04:19 pm]
[Current Location |Home]
[Current Mood | stressed]
[Current Music |DHT virus 12]

Right, Exam on Tuesday. Here is my plan of attack for the heavy load ahead of me:

* Deep breathe, just because I haven't done anything this heavy in a while does not mean I am incapable. Focus and find the capability that lies dormant and let it rise up and when ready read on. Any time the study gets overbearing read back to this point.

* R
ead each lecture's notes then read corresponding tutorial. write down any questions.

* Run practise calculations for each of the tests until it can be done without assistance from previous examples. the following statistics need to be calculated and any questions should be written down. Analysis of variance & Bonferroni theory. Theory and calculations for: Wilcoxin's rank-sum, wilcoxin's matched-pairs, Kruskal Wallis anova, Friedman's rank test, chi square goodness of fit, chi square for independence, sign test, cramer's phi, binominal test, pearson's r, z test for independent correlation coefficients, spearman's rho, point biserial correlation and regression (I'll spare livejournal the respective formulae).

* Read questions and write answers for any that can now be worked

* Email lecturer with any remaining questions

* G
o see lecturer on Monday to have a confidence advantage Tuesday.

Need 50% to pass so aiming for 80 = overall credit/ distinction

Contrast 2            
t'=  L / √ ∑aj2 Mserror /2          
               
L= (aj) (`Xj)             
= (3)(3.875)+(-1)(8.625)+(-1)(10.75)+(-1)(13.375)    
= 11.625+ -8.625+ -10.75+ -13.375      
= 11.625+ -32.75          
= -21.125            
               
aj2= 32 + -12 + -12 +-12          
= 9 +1+1+1            
= 12            
               
MSerror= 2.933            
n= 8            
               
t'=  -21.25 / √ ∑(12) (2.933) /8        
  -21.25 / 35.196          


So thats an excerpt from my Summer Semester Analysis of variance, orthogonality analysis, bonferroni test etc assignment. I have an exam on Tuesday that I am yet to study for. I have looked over the notes and I am confident I CAN calculate and analyse my way to a pass ;) Afterwhich the work situation will be sorted indefinetely as the above cleary demonstrates my ability to do monotonous shit on a computer.

We went to stradbroke last weekend, walked talked and we got to have a FIRE and a BBQ. my favourite part was of course the FIRE. I kept looking around the island for Soupspoon but the cat hadnt came with us. silly thing.

Ima think i will roll up a smoke and purge any remaining thoughts from my brain onto this page as I smoke it and then find peace amidst the pillows, blankie and girlfriends.

*currently creating a cigarette, please stand by |...................................................................................| complete*

ah yes, i shall be graduating this year, still not sure what this means...
I still havent enrolled for this semester... i guess i can take care of that tuesday after my exam, I have 4 electives to study, then my degree is complete. affirmative, 4 units=Piece of paper. I will of course be taking all year to complete this. You can't rush art.

I feel good right now.

thanks for reading.

You're a Mean Drunk!
People don't like to get drunk with you. You're the
drunk cursing random people, opening up old
wounds and starting fights. People get scared
of you and try to stay out of your way---or
start giving you nonalcoholic beers secretly.

20 questions to a better skitz [Jul. 5th, 2004|05:28 pm]
You are a WRDL--Wacky Rational Destructive Leader. This makes you an enemy of the state. You are charismatic and winning and a very dangerous enemy. You favor justice over compassion, and would almost rather see your opponent fail than you succeed.

You impact the lives of those around you more than any other personality. People remember your name and respect you. You are a tremendous amount of fun to be around and astonishing to watch. You are generally abstinent in your habits, and you like things tidy and ordered.

When picking teams, it is smartest for others to pick yours.

cool [Feb. 17th, 2004|05:37 pm]
SteelWings
You have wings of STEEL. No one's really
sure why, but at this point in your life you've
shut off emotion to the point of extreme
apathy. You are cold and indifferent much of
the time...or perhaps you're just a good
pretender. Next to impossible to get close to,
even those who do never see the real you. It's
entirely possible that YOU don't even know the
real you. You have a certain fascination or
attraction to destruction on a massive scale -
disasters, perhaps even death or the concept of
the Apocalypse. Because you hold so much
inside, one day you're simply going to snap.
Then the mask will fall away, and your true
wings will be revealed. Until then you will
deal with whatever comes your way in icy bitter
silence and acceptance. On the positive side,
you are fearless and immeasurably strong - not
much can crack through your defenses. You
intrigue people, who can't help but wonder why
you're the way you are. A loner and one who
spends much of their time brooding and
contemplating life and death - you are a time
bomb waiting to explode and create some
destruction of your own.
