The One with the Quizes

My pirate name is:
Calico Davy Rackham
Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!
Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.

I was just surfing the net that day, and I chanced upon this quiz. I can't rmb how exactly I did.. Anyways, i was laughing out loud, when it deducted i was indecisive cos i couldn't even choose a fav colour. Quite true. Anyways, this was prob bout 1 - 2 weeks ago that I did it. I did it again (oh spare me the britney nonsense.. haha..) anddddddd this are the results.

My pirate name is:
Iron Davy Read
A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you a tough person. Even through many pirates have a reputation for not being the brightest souls on earth, you defy the sterotypes. You've got taste and education. Arr!

I've come to believe Davy is the common denominator. And my pirate name shall henceforth be Calico Iron Davy (II) Rackham. I'll drop the Read, cos I'm not a big fan. And the II does not mean The Second. It just means Davy X 2.

One more quiz. Or not really a quiz. Its a Johari Window. Hannah intro-ed me to it. So I got one too.. Anyways I'll prob get a Nohari Window too.. That's the negative characteristics version.

Ok, click here! So I can broadcast, or blogcast it from my blog, and instead of using it as my msn nick. It's not a nice nick. See, that's why you get blogs! So you can save your msn nicks for nicer things.

Ok. Nights World.Up, Up, and Away......to bed!!

The One With the Angsty Playlist.

That day, I was telling God what my wishlist was, if He ever asked me what are the top 3 things i wanted. Of cos, being the greedy person I am, I told Him, "top 4 please!"

The past few days I've been sitting in front of the comp, typing paragraph after paragraph, and yet nothing decent has come up all these times. And when I say nothing decent, i do mean nothing decent -- in the sense that everything i write seems abit too angsty for me. I'm way past the age for teenage angst. Yes, granted, I'm still eighTEEN, or A(eigh) Teen. But somehow, i feel abit too old for anvril lavagne and other teen angst singers.

Talking about that, I've actually been clearing up my music library. No worries, my fav singer is still in the library. In fact very once in a long while, he has his own airtime, that's undisturbed by any other artiste. Ok, except maybe Bethany Joy Lenz, or Oliver James. That's not the Naked Chef btw. That guy is Jamie Oliver. And to be honest, his show's quite good. Maybe its the name. Hmm. Ok, from now on, my middle name is no longer Shane. Its Oliver.

Anyways, i've been clearing all the rock songs from my playlist. The Julianna Theory is gone, some of my One Tree Hill songs are gone... all to make way for songs to suit a calmer me. Well, i do admit I'm not exactly calmer. But at this point in my life, rock songs are so not for me.

Its been said that a person's playlist reveals his/her personality. I dunno what genre means what; I dun even know what my playlist says about me.

But, changing its contents probably means something.

That day, I was telling God what my wishlist was, if He ever asked me what are the top 3 things i wanted. Of cos, being the greedy person I am, I told Him, "top 4 please!"

This was my last attempted entry. Part of it. I thot about my top 4, and I wondered what happened in my life, that caused me to place those things as my Wishlist.

I can guess abit for all 4, and i think i know why I've cut the rock songs from my playlist. But what else is gonna happen in the near future, that will affect my far future? I don't know.

Thank God, He knows the future.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know, I know,
He holds the future.
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives.

He holds the future. And life is worth the living.
Thankyou Daddy.

The One About the Tube q.u.o.t.e.s.

    "But every day that you stonewall makes you look more and more like a cold, calculating killer.."

    -D.B, DH.

    "Everyone in the world needs someone they can depend on.
    Be they faithful friends...
    determined advocates...
    or a loving family.
    But occasionally in life, the people we thought
    would always be there for us...
    ...leave."

The One With the Words of Wisdom.

The time has come for Uncle Desmond to share some pearls of wisdom. Bear in mind Uncle Desmond has walked the earth for 18 years. And well. Its not very long. But it is his blog. So he does get to write whatever he wants.

Don't you just hate it when people start talking in third person?? Haha, i know i do. haha..

Ok, let's get along now. Here are some things I learnt in the past few days.. Wise things that should be passed from generation to generation.

1.) Don't blow into a cup of tea leaves, with the fan blowing in your direction.
2.) If you bit yourself and got an ulcer, be careful not to do it again. Especially at the same spot.
3.) When travelling on public transport alone, do not think of things that make you laugh hysterically.
4.) When you are walking home, and you are singing out loud, always check to see if there are people around you. If caught, be cool and pretend you knew the person was there all along. Smile to the person, while singing, if possible.

Ok. That's it for now.!!
Till next time, I'm Uncle Desmond!!!
