    Irby Says: not so much cause this freaking Javascript isn't working!
The nightmare called "School"
09.29.04 (4:14 pm)   [edit]
Stupid, damned, freaking, (plus a whole lot more) Maths!! I hate it! Wish nobody ever invented it! Who did invent Maths actually?

We had this maths test today. Didn't really go as planned. Well, actually yesterday's Chemistry test didn't go as planned but this maths test just didn't go. We had to little time and I thought the questions were far too difficult. (I complain now, but I do think I'll get a sufficient mark) Still I hate maths (sure that feeling will be gone in a few days as well)

About that chem test we had yesterday. It definately didn't go as planned. We were fortunate (we thought) that the other class already had the test on Monday. One of them "borrowed without returning" (stole) a test paper. That evening that test paper went through our whole class. (God bless the internet) Everybody was happy and learned that test. But.. (and you can already guess) when I got the test yesterday a saw a strange test lying in front of me. And I didn't recognise it (certainly no good sign) It appeared to be another test!!!:? Ow am I screwed now! But it gets even better. It turned out that half of my class did get the version we already had at home. So dubble screwed. I thought that the whole classe would get a D or something. But now half will get an A and the other half D!!

NEwayz.. got some physics to make for tomorrow. Can't really focus now, I'm in a really bad mood!!! (when can I ever focus :?) Dunno if I make it to Peking like this. I mean you have to be mental strong as a sporter as well:? Like one can achieve that with school!!
 
We accidentily rule!!!

Last Saturday we had a hockey match against the 2nd in our poule (we're first 8) but we've only played 3 times so far. And we've won all 3. Didn't know what came over us. We even won from Epe, and we always loose from them) And we didn't really mean to (of course we had hoped to) win. It was like a very big surprise. Something you dream of for years. And suddenly it was in reach and we just did it!!

Having won this match means we're very sure (not 100% but almost) to go to first classe :D :D Something we've never achieved before!! Happy Happy Joy Joy. And then to imagine I wanted to go to another team, I'll take back everything I said! (not that you guys know what I said)

Actually this is the first step to world recognition 8) We're here, we're good, and the world knows! Here we come, Olympics!! (well, not exactly, but maybe once...) CU in Peking

BTW: Martijn, Caro and the others, congrats on winning the Dutch round of the European Youth Parliament. Good luck in Norway!
 
How to annoy people
09.12.04 (11:10 am)   [edit]
Found these on the internet. I just had to place them. I thought they were kind of amusing.


How to annoy people

Annoying people can be both fun and profitable! Well maybe not profitable, and well hey, everyone will think of you as a jerk, but then, perhaps they already do! So give them reason to talk behind your back. Your reputation will precede you!

1. Adjust the tint on your tv so that all the people are green, and insist to others that you "like it that way".
2. As much as possible, skip rather than walk.
3. Ask 800 operators for dates.
4. Ask people what gender they are.
5. Ask the waitress for an extra seat for your "imaginary friend".
6. Ask to "interface" with someone.
7. Ask your co-workers mysterious questions, and scribble their answers in a notebook. Mutter something about "psychological profiles".
8. At a golf tournament, chant "swing-batatatatatata-suh WING-batter!"
9. At the Laundromat, use one dryer for each of your socks.
10. Begin all your sentences with "ooh la la!"

16. Construct elaborate "crop circles" in your front lawn.
17. Construct your own pretend "tricorder", and "scan" people with it, announcing the results.
18. Cultivate a Norwegian accent. If Norwegian, affect a Southern Drawl.
19. Decline to be seated at a restaurant, and simply eat their complementary mints by the cash register.
20. Deliberately hum songs that will remain lodged in co-workers' brains, such as "Feliz Navidad", the Archies' "Sugar" or the Mr Rogers theme song.
21. Demand that everyone address you as "Conquistador".
22. Do not add any inflection to the end of your sentences, producing awkward silences with the impression that you'll be saying more any moment.

25. Drum on every available surface.
26. Finish all your sentences with the words "in accordance with prophesy".
27. Finish the 99 bottles of beer song.
28. Follow a few paces behind someone, spraying everything they touch with a can of Lysol.
29. Forget the punch line to a long joke, but assure the listener it was a "real hoot".

37. Inform others that they exist only in your imagination.
38. Instead of Gallo, serve Night Train next Thanksgiving.
39. Invent nonsense computer jargon in conversations, and see if people play along to avoid the appearance of ignorance.
40. Invite lots of people to other people's parties.
41. Learn Morse code, and have conversations with friends in public consisting entirely of "Beeeep Bip Bip Beeeep Bip..."
42. Leave someone's printer in compressed-italic-cyrilli c-landscape mode.

We won!!
09.11.04 (12:13 pm)   [edit]
Yes!!! (*good mood, good mood*) Just had a hockeygame (like 8 hours ago) and we won!!! :D
We play second classe and if we go on like this it'll be first classe!!:D

We had to play against Zwolle, and it's kind of a big club compared to our minuscule, unimportant, just-for-fun hockeyclub. So I'm in heaven right now.
And I didn't have to be goalkeeper. I played in the field, and it was soooo great again!! :D

Next week Epe, we always loose from them. But not next time!! C U when the Saga continues...
 
Cogito Ergo Sum

Today weekend!! Happy happy, joy joy. Finally time for relaxing. Except for the hockeygame this afternoon and some boring familyreunion tomorrow, I'll have time to relax :D

No school, just free time (although it only last two days :?) No thinking, just doing. "I think, therefore I am." Wasn't that what Descartes said? Well, I don't know about that. I just planned not to think really much this weekend, does that mean I don't exist any more? Why isn't it: "I am, therefore I think"? And why the thinking part? Can't I just be, whithout thinking?

Well, wouldn't want that either. Being able to think makes us just that little bit human we need to seperate us from animals. And actually, I think we are all just animals. Why should we be better. Only because we think we are?

And when we say: I think, therefore I am. What about people who aren't thinking at that moment. Don't they exist? When someone is asleep or in a coma or something. Does he or she vanish from this earth for that time? And reappear when they think?

And a rock is. But does it think? And do plants? :?

Anyway, the one thing I know for sure is that I'm thinking too much now. (Does that mean I am more than other people? :?) And I'm thinking about stupid lame things. I mean, who would start some blog about what some Greek or French or whatever man said thousands years ago? Should get my mind thinking of usefull stuff (school :?)

I'll go now to that hockeygame. In the mean while: think, then you should know you exist according to Descartes.

I havent blogged for ages I recently noticed. And when I say ages, I really mean ages! I guess I was just too busy. Holiday, school, taking the dog out for a walk (like that takes months) and hockey.

I just started school again 2 weeks ago and I must admit they make it tougher every year. I have trouble keeping up. I have only 7 subjects left this year, but they're hard ones and some I have for over 5 hours a week. I'm thinking of dropping some, cause I'm really freaking out. And it's like teachers at last found out what homework is (we tried to hide it from them for over year :?) I've already spend ages on it and it doesn't seem like it's going to be less soon.

And I don't even have time to do homework. This hockey season I hockey a bit too much I think. I have keeper practise every monday. Every wednesday and fryday I also have practise. I join my dad with his practise on thursdays and I train a team on teusdays. Plus the game on saterday and sunday I'm on the field as well, makes 7 days a week I'm playing hockey. Not that I mind, but I'm really busy with it. And I don't think it's doing me real good.

And besides hockey I still have friends and social contacts. But I don't have time for it at all. If this goes on, I'll be lonely and friendless by next christmas. I will be rotting behind my schoolbooks or at the hockeyfield, or else in some psychiatric ward cause my head is getting a real mess.
