Yesterday when I was torrenting, I noticed that I was getting unusually high speeds. It’s kind of weird to hear someone complain about something that is in their favour, it’s like someone complaining about getting mark correct in a test for a question they clearly got correct and the mark is a matter of pass or fail.

Anyway, I want to know why my internet is faster than usual. I’m getting about 3 times faster on torrents and 5 times faster on http downloads. I do not like change, especially when I have no clue want is going on. I wish my stupid ISP would shine some light and tell me what was going on. I’m too lazy to ask them because they might do something about it.

This morning I was standing at the bus stop and just as the bus was pulling over, i reached onto my pocket to find it empty. Where was my wallet and bus tickets? Not where they should be at this stage. I then ended up walking all the way back home to find my wallet when I left it at night, on my bedside table.

I don’t get how I left it there. I had been doing the same routine for five and a half years now so how come today I forget to put my wallet and bus tickets in my pocket? I ended up have to catch the then bus and arrived to school just as the bell rang.

Another thing I have a problem with is groups of people, especially of the female specimen, take up the whole footpath and walk slower than an old grandmother. Why are they walking so slow? They piss me off so much. But there is something that is worse, groups of people that take up the whole footpath, or any walkway for that matter, and don’t walk. They just stand there and talk and not let people pass. That pisses me off more.

I wish I had powers like on Heroes. If i could fly, I wouldn’t have to worry about buses and if I could teleport, well thats all my problems of forgetting items and transportation sorted. Also if I had telekinesis then I could push the groups to the side and walk through them. Also if i could hurt them in anyway to teach them a lesson, that would be awesome too. Wow, what a wild imagination I have!

I was hoping that before I came home tonight that Tumblr wouldn’t have passed its ten millionth post so I could be the one to make that fabulous post. Unfortunately it was made before I got back.

For those of you who don’t know what Tumblr is, it is a Tumblelogging service I use for Yum9me’s Scrapbook. Its a fantastic service that I am very loyal too.

Congratulations to Davidville for its ever so successful service, Tumblr! I’m sure it won’t be long till the next major milestone of one hundred million posts!

Yesterday evening I had planned to watch the lunar eclipse. The 4 days building up to Tuesday were perfect, no clouds and warm weather. On the day of the event, the weather changes, rain and clouds! 30 minutes before the event I went outside to look for the moon. Lucky for me, I could see the glowing ball in the sky. I got the camera set up and took a few pre-eclipse photos of the moon.

Just before the time it was going to start, the clouds came in I couldn’t see the moon! About 20 minutes later the clouds cleared and i saw the moon, being slightly shadowed. I was hopeful of seeing the spectacular event. But no, thing couldn’t turn out right, the clouds came back. Why do the might gods smite me?

As time went by, the clouds didn’t clear. I though I was going to miss out. Just before I was going to call it a day and hit the sack, I looked out the window to see a faint red glow in the sky. It was the moon. As I watched, I could see the clouds around it clear and could see a clear sky, full of stars. I tried to get a picture but I couldn’t hold the camera steady. I needed a tripod. I didn’t get the picture I was looking forward to taking but I guess there is always next time, in 10 years or so.

Here are three pictures I took. Better luck next time.

• Pre-Eclipse
• Shadowed Moon
• Blurry Red Lunar Eclipse

This blog is attempt number five of doing the blogging thing. So far I end up doing if for a week and then either republish others content or just leave it because I can’t be bothered. Let see if this time is different.

Suggestions welcome to keep this one alive!
