To say it’s been a while would be misleading June 16, 2009
Posted by Sharny in : Life, Misc, USA Trip , add a commentI’m so well meaning with this here blog. I mean, it doesn’t really matter after all, I get 1 page view per day with delightful keywords such as “shiny guitar gear + opium”, ” search words biggest red back” and ” “the girl who” lundone”. I’ve got to wonder if any of the people searching for these things actually got anything like what they were after. Especially the first one, what the hell is going on there. This is the internet though after all.
I didn’t really even have a “I’m going away for a while” post so really if anyone was following this they would think it just died without explanation (which does happen, quite a few favourite blogs of mine have just evaporated from the intertubes much to my dismay) but in reality I was just in another country doing something different and new.
To be specific, I was in California playing grown up and being a ski instructor (although lets face it, we’re not the most grown up of professions). And it was epic. To say it’s changed my life would be a ridiculous understatement. Really, if I was going to go into details about it all I would need a whole series of posts and I don’t seem to be able to dedicate myself enough to writing quite enough to do that at the moment. Suffice to say that as an experience I recommend it and I really recommend trying skiing too, it’s the most amazing outdoor activity I think you’ll ever try.
So here we have this jumbled blog post, basically saying that I’m gonna try and write stuff again. I should write more, I know this. Perhaps it’s time to uninstall stumbleupon, it’s a real horror for my productivity. Yes, I think that’s what I’ll do. Actually force myself to do something useful. See, this blogging thing has helped me already, why didn’t I try it before…?
The Penultimate Day June 18, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Life, Misc , add a commentThis is the day before my last exam. By tomorrow lunch time all the worrying, the procrastination and sporadic work will be over and I must simply wait. Wait to find out my fate, to find out what I have the horrible feeling I already know the answer to.
I really don’t like this feeling…
ChrisH6 Woo! June 5, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Internets, Misc , add a commentMy chum Chris has decided to revive his blog which, despite its small number of posts, certainly beat this one in terms of outside comments. Of course, this was because he posted pictures of a “UFO” he saw on holiday and we added it to stumble upon. It’s quite entertaining reading the comments, I hadn’t actually realised that anyone had looked at it at all until recently. Surprisingly convincing.
As a side effect of his blog revival I will most likely mention him by name now when talking about general events, I tend to shy away from naming people on here but actually it doesn’t make much sense. This is definitely my blog (as in, me the British citizen with a passport and a bank account) and I don’t really hide that so keeping these names hidden is a bit silly.
Of course, now it’s on to see who can gets the most readers!
No, that’s silly. No one should read either of these blogs. Just go home. Unless of course you are our friends, in which case you are allowed to stay but you don’t count anyways.
Dream Onslaught May 28, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Life, Misc , add a commentI seem to be under assault from dreams at the moment. Everything from random and wacky through epic adventures to life lessons. It all seems to contribute to feeling really crap in the morning. Particularly this morning, where my dream was filled with things that I would love to happen and that when I awoke it felt a bit like having it all ripped away.
Of course, these dreams are pretty typical in that they don’t shy away from blatant references to things that I have seen or felt, for example whilst I was with some wanted fugitives adventuring from a pub in the west country we had tracked down enemy and criminal (who incidentally, had no arms) to a field when a load of police cars pulled up and I feared my companions had been caught but instead they all just rushed into the field to capture the person we had found. This is probably a reference to a video I saw the other day of some thieves running our of a shop they had just robbed and getting into a car when a load of cops appear and all rush into the building whilst the robbers calming drive away.
This post is pretty pointless, I have nothing to conclude from all these dreams happening, only perhaps that I am in a great state of emotional change as I shift between phases of my life. Of course, depending on your psychological viewpoint you could say these dreams mean nothing or they mean everything however that is part of module 4 and as my exam in 2 weeks is on module 5 I don’t want to fill my mind with such distractions.

Really now, I challenge you to find a single thing “the internet” doesn’t encourage. Go on, Mr Inquirer, this should lead to some very interesting Google queries.
