I have a Fender Electric. It's a pretty good guitar. I remember when I first got it, I had no idea I was going to get an instrument as good as this one. It was the particular one I had been looking at for a while. I was [i]so[/i] going to save up for it. I had half the money saved up, and then I get it for my birthday. :drunk: I haven't played it for a while now, though I intend to get started again soon.

Does he have a brother called Luke? If he does, I know Matt's brother. :) There's always Broome in Western Australia. :toothy: I love that place. We went there once before to see a relative of mum's, and when we left I missed it for ages. I wish Dubbo was like it. It's a bit hard though, seeing as Dubbo isn't even close to the coastline for New South Wales. -_- -
[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by AzureWolf [/i] [B]Are you kidding? It'd be great to live another life. Besides, you'd be refreshed from a very long dream. You would have slept like a rock, and ready to take on "reality!" In all seriousness, though, it's impossible to believe this life is a dream. Really, there are too many things in "my dream" that I would have never come up with myself. [/B][/QUOTE]No. I've gone through things in this "dream", so be it, that can turn one's whole life over. I'm not saying it could turn your life over, or that dude standing over there, but these incidents would sure as hell change my life onto another path if I went about them a different way to what I did. If I went into my "real" life, you never know, I mightn't face problems as big as the ones I've faced in this other dimension I [i]could[/i] be living. And knowing that, I couldn't live, or atleast face myself, knowing that I kind of [i]earned[/i] the life I was at in my "dream". I [i]earned[/i] it. I couldn't just chuck away this life and go live in a brand bendin' new life all shiny and silver. I may aswell live [i]this[/i] life to the fullest, and [i]then[/i] go live in that shimmering life waiting by. ....or, I suppose, I could forget the dream when I wake up from it. :drunk: That'd be buggered.

I can hardly ever remember any of my dreams, though there is one I had a long time ago. I mean a [i]long[/i] time ago. And ever since it's just stuck in my memory, and I always seem to remember it. I was walking down Thompson Street (this was the street that we lived in for most of the time when I was young). I walked into the driveway that our house had, and walked up through the gates. Then I notive a long wide path going straight ahead, with a row of thick green trees on the right hand side. I couldn't really see what was on my left hand side. I was walking down the path, and there were these huge dogs on either side of the path, just barking as I walked down the path. They were Huskees. I was walking, taking steps, though I wasn't really moving. Everything was blurry, as if my normal vision was like it. Not blurry, clouded. I kept walking, but not moving... Then I awoke. Funny how this dream occurs when we've since lived in something like four houses after the one in Thompson Street. That it was based around the house I lived in from when I was born. Hmm..

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by enigma [/i] [B][COLOR=blue][I]Did someone mention my name before, my ears are burning. It hurts so much. Does anyone around hear live in Wollongong in NSW? I seem to be the only person to have been born there and many people haven't even heard of the city. Yes, CITY. It's not just a little town like Toowoomba, but a rather large, Brisbane like city(I think). Most of my family lives in Wollongong and Newcastle, but I am yet to find someone who was born or still lives there.[/COLOR][/I] [/B][/QUOTE]I've lived there. It's actually quite bigger than I used to think it was. The surroundings in Wollongong look more like an urban megacity than anything else. Kind of what it looks like in Central Sydney. I only lived there for two years at the most. My dad had a job with Telstra, and was moved from Brewarrina to Wollongong to work. What a hectic lifestyle it is to live up there. The main reason I think this, is because of the nights in Wollongong. There's no peace and quiet at twelve midnight in [i]that[/i] city, like the rural towns in Western New South Wales. It honestly took me a few months to get used to sleeping with what sounded like a freeway outsde my window. It had its advantages, alot, if compared to Dubbo. Amusement facitlities, just a few kilometers away, or down the road, anywhere really, was a great change to my life. Laser Maze, Skirmish Paintball- all these awesome activities I have no chance of trying out again here in Dubbo. I think I might move to Wollongong, or around there, when I've got the money and older, just for the entertainment. -
For me, headaches tend to calm down when they're faced with the cause of them. I usually lay down, and put on some loud music, and the headache settles down and lets me go to sleep. You know how if you're run down, wornout, overdone, you can feel a headache is going to hit you. Then you sit down, and it hits you full on. And you're for the rest of the day paralysed. If you kept going, running around, whatever you were doing, while taking a Panadol or two at it, it wouldn't have hit. Just stayed around until you took a Panadol, and it's gone after a while. If you can feel it's going to hit you, take some medicine before it hits, and it's gone. If it hit without warning, don't try and relax it off, or it'll hit even harder and stay longer. Take some medicine and keep doing what you were doing, it'll go away. ...:toothy:. Sorry man, got this advice from a counsellor a week ago and it's worked for me.

Matt Taylor? Matt Scales? Dude... there's a heap of "Matt"s in Year 10, younger than 15.. I don't know if any of them went to an OzSpell thing though.. All my family is in Dubbo. My father's side, his parents, were always moving around in the Dubbo area, as his father was a sleeper cutter for the railways. Dad took after him, of course, so they were still moving around to towns like Mendoran, Narromine, Guerie, Galargahmbone, Gilgandra, Briwarrina.. till about 10 years ago, when dad's father retired, and they settled in Dubbo. Mum's side, her parents, are from Italy, so most of her family are Italian, her brother/s, sister/s, herself too. Though most of them are also all in Dubbo, except for a, or her only, brother and sister, who live in Merrygoin. Funny how all my family, despite its origins, are based in Dubbo. It's a shithole of a place if you ask me, I could live under a rock and make it better tha living here, though it's where I was born, so be it. Damn. -
My parents would tell me when I was younger, that the stars were windows in the sky, and that everyone that went to heaven had a star of their own. They said to look for the biggest star in the sky, and when I finally made up my mind on which star I could find was the biggest, they said that nan was looking out of it. That she was watching us. We used to call her "Nana". Ever since then, I've felt as if it's true. I don't know, I could ask her to leave something around for us to know, I just don't really feel the need to.

If I woke up from this life, being it a dream, I couldn't live my [i]real[/i] life. No way. I've gone through too much in [i]this dream[/i] to go live in another life, that could be absolutely nothing like this life I'm living, or supposedly dreaming, now. It's not it being a dream that I fear, it's waking up in a completely different life, to the life I'm in now.

I've actually started a car mechanics class. Pulling apart cars, researching, putting them back together, building, upgrading, etc. Five weeks into it now, and it's really startng to be a good class, I'm learning more and more information I don't already know. I'm glad I took it in the first place.

I'm from Dubbo, New South Wales. I haven't met anyone from Dubbo who posts on OtakuBoards. -
Rocko's Modern Life. Are You Afraid of the Dark? Gilligan's Island (Nick At Nite) The Adventures Of Shirley Holmes (really didn't like this show) Rugrats (didn't like this cartoon either) Clarissa Explains It All (absolutely HATED IT. [i]And I still hate it[/i]. Man... I'll walk backwards the rest of my life if I ever see something of it AGAIN (It's still on Nickelodeon if you haven't noticed)) There's more, I can't remember their names though.

"Stairway To Heaven" by Led Zeppelin is a good song. On the radio they've been playing a cut out version of it, and instead of going for 8 minutes, this version goes for about 4. They've ruined it. Also "It's Been A While" by Staind is awesome. "The Unforgiven II" by Metallica is also one of my favourites. "What It's Like" by Everlast, is the only rap song I've liked ever since it's come out. All these songs have been out for ages, and they're all good music. [b]EDIT:[/B] "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd, "Hazard" by Richard Marx, and "November Rain" by Guns & Roses are also great songs that have been out for years and years.

"How many windows are hit by birds, on average." In the paper a few days ago. I'm thinking, what the hell? And it had a result, like 2000 in Australia. Ha, I think it'd be more.

I hate being alone. I can't stand it. I'm alone now, in my room on the computer. I'm cracking. The only reason I'm online is to talk to you guys. I'm not alone online, you see. :whoops: Usually I can't bare to be at home, when I could be in town with my friends. I think that's why I hate home so much.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by RicoTranzrig [/i] [B][COLOR=darkblue]My Anatomy teacher told me the key to losing weight is to burn more calories than you take in...makes sense.[/COLOR] [/B][/QUOTE]Males 12 years and up need 1600 calories to sleep. Females from the same age need around 1400. It doesn't work out to be too good if you start burning off your "sleep calories". It's also good to stick as close as you can to the healthy calorie intake range. You can eat healthy foods, alot at that, to get to the intake range. Or you can eat a heap of chips and kebabs and go a crack and a half over it. For men, 3000 is the average calorie intake range, for women, 2300. If you want to lose weight, you can drop this intake range to 2000 (recommended healthy intake), or under. Your body needs [i]atleast[/i] 1600 calories to go for a day (sleep aswell), for both males and females. If you stay by this rule your body has the fuel it needs (metabolism, energy, etc) to keep going. It's better to [i]not[/i] burn off that intake (sleepless nights ;)). And it's better to get to the neccesary intake range (1600) with healthy foods. This can mean eating a heap of apples and peaches, and you still won't be there. There as, once you jog/run, you burn off around 160 calories of this intake every 20 minutes of running. The perfect range to lose weight. Every week of burning off that much, every day, you're going to burn off around 1000 calories (almost the neccesary intake range for a day!). That's approx. all you need to do to burn off 2/3lbs a week. -Just say... you're a male who took in 2500 calories for yesterday. Then you run for 40 mintues. (320 calories gone) That's 320 calories gone from the intake range (2500) for that day. Perfect. You got rid of more weight by [i]burning[/i] it off. It didn't go away by you sitting down all day. You [i]burned[/i] it off. Burning more than you take in is good of you want to lose weight faster than ever. Though if you're prepared to go without a smooth sleep every night, go right ahead... actually, I did for a while. :drunk: ...man, I feel like a teacher now. Sorry Rico. :whoops:

Running/jogging and dieting. Just build the running rutine into your everyday life, so you think you have to do it anyway. Make way for it. I started jogging about a quarter of a mile, walking half of it. Simply because it was too hard for me. But I kept pushing it, and jogging everyday, trying to lose weight. I can now jog about 2 miles without stopping. And I can keep going. And no matter how hard you try, you can never run full pace for a long distance... say 6 miles, unless of course you've been doing it for a lifetime or are a running athlete. If you're not losing weight too fast, you might have hit a platue. A time when you don't lose nothing at all. The exercising still does your body the world of good, but you won't lose weight, if at all, you'll put on weight. But once this platue is over, your weight will drop like a bomb. All the weight you should have lost in that platue, you'll lose now in about 2/3 weeks. Dieting with it makes it all better. Eating what you normally do won't really hurt if you're running/jogging, as the jogging your doing burns off some of the calories you put on, that you weren't burning off when you weren't running. ;) But eating healthier foods if you're not already, just adds to the results. I've lost now, around 11 kilograms (no idea how much pounds that is), and I've doing exectly what I mentioned above. I've now stopped for a while, though I'm going to start again soon. I still need to lose about 15/20 kilograms before I'm a healthy weight for my age. And I intend to. I play footy though, so the extra weight I'm carrying around does stand up for advantages. ...also, sit ups and all these "ab exercises" won't do jack **** to giving you abs, [i]if you've got a gut[/i]. If you've got some chubb around the stomach, ab exercises will make your abs stronger/bigger/whatever, but they [i]won't show[/i] while the chubb is there on top. You have to [i]burn[/i] that fat on top (jogging ;)). Once you've got rid of the fat on top, you're abs will start to show. Ab exercises don't burn fat, they're muscle exercises. "Muscle burns fat"... yeah, we've all heard that. But you'll find that they're not doing nothing [i]visible[/i] to your abs, though they [i]are[/i] making them huge under that fat. Ask a doctor, [i]every[/i] doctor knows it. ...hope I could have been of some help. :)

I lost a great friend a year back. I used to wish I could change that. But now I don't. If I didn't lose her, I wouldn't be where I am now... put it that way. Nothing at all. I couldn't change anything in my life.. my life is what I want it to be. Changing something, would probably ruin something else..

I don't have any plans for the future yet. I'm in year nine, I've been studying three elective subjects for two years, and I'm on the verge of failing two of them. The other one I don't get a report on. The thought has crossed my mind a fair few times. Especially in the circumstances I've landed myself in now. I'm just going about my life at the moment. I'll wait till it happens. [i]If[/i] it happens. May aswell [i]try[/i] and make a purpose out of your life. Living as a "no-body"- will only happen if you want it to happen. By trying to make a purpose out of it, you've already made a purpose for yourself.

I know guys who go around, going out with real hot girls, thinking they're [i]all that[/i]. Then a week later, they break up. *gasps* "Oh no! What happened?!". That's usually what they always say about a day later. If they had a good personality, this mightn't happen. Good looking girls are awesome, no doubt, though they're not always what they look like. Personality is the base building block. Without it, no relationship can happen. I do tend to chase the looks side of girls.. nearly every guy I know does. Though you have to crack that shell. Once you do, the personality jumps out. I'm not going to stay with someone who can't talk and a smile would crack their face. It doesn't work.

I get it sometimes. Not often, though usually when I'm doing something entertaining, it pops up. It doesn't really annoy me that much.
