Things I Love Thursday

The Stanley Parable

An Indie game where you are Stanley.

You're at work and realise that there is no-one there.

You go to figure out where everyone is.

There is a Narrator who directs you, or you can disobey him.

You can choose which way you want.

It's weird.

It's hard to explain without Spoilers.

It's available on Steam for $US14.99

Cards Against Humanity

I ordered a set of Cards Against Humanity.

I don't know if I mentioned it before

but they don't ship to Australia, but in the FAQ it says if you ask nicely

they might be able to help.

So I sent off my nice email

and I got a reply 15minutes later

sending me to a link to a super secret international store :)

(shhh... don't tell anyone!)

They arrived during the week.

They're amazing and hilarious.

I really want to go through them all

but I want to be surprised when I play it

but I need more friends :)

*******

Bubblegum Cupcake.

I had my first Bubblegum Cupcake at work this week.

They were brought it by a parent.

They were super yummy.

Vanilla Cupcake with Bubblegum flavoured Icing!

So Good!!

:)

What are the things you love this Thursday?

Things I Love Thursday

This is it, the last day of the year, and the last "Things I Love Thursday" for 2009. It's been an awesome year, full of ups and downs and tears and smiles, and just awesomeness. So here it is.

"Seeya next year" jokes. A customer thought he'd be funny, by saying "Seeya next year" as he left the store. Honorable mention... tomorrow, without fail, my little sister (or my dad) will use the "I haven't showered since last year" line. =D

Moleskine Planner, actually any planners, shiny and new and empty, until tomorrow (except if you're my planner, it hasn't been empty since I bought it back in October)

Learning how to fold t-shirts. Check it out, it's only a 38 second Youtube video, and it's in Japanese, but it will change the way you fold clothes forever!

Twenty10 anticipation. Movies, Music, Concerts, just awesome things that will happen during the next year. Will I get to meet Ianto Jones (Torchwood)? Will Muse come back to Perth to perform a solo tour (because I missed out of Big Day Out tix)? Will I lose one hundred milllion kilos? Who knows, that's what makes it so awesome!

It's Not the End of the World But I Can See It from Here by Lostprophets. Ian Watkins is seriously channeling The Mighty Boosh in the first verse.

CUPCAKES... I badly want and need the plummer to come and connect up our new oven. We haven't had a working Oven in months, I'm seriously having cupcake withdrawls. All I want to do it bake pretty yummy things. (That probably isn't a Thing I Love Thursday.... but I need everyone to know what hardships I'm going through)

Star Trek (the original series) OMG awesomeness (I actually found an episode I remember watching as a kid) YAY!

LEGO. My sister made me this.

Thanks to everyone who reads my blog. And I look forward to reading your blogs in TWENTY10.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

3 weeks until my birthday

i wish i could make geek cupcakes for my birthday, but we don't have an oven =(

Untitled

The last episode of Doctor Who series 4 is on ABC on Sunday night. But I have to work so I'm going to miss it. It isn't a big deal because I have that episode on my iPod (but haven't watched it yet) but I would prefer to watch in on a big screen and in better quality. I may have to get mum to record it, or wait a couple of months until it's released on DVD.

Torchwood Season 2 is released next week. It's $99 but I will probably still buy it. I've already seen them all (on my iPod) but want to watch them in better quality.

Other than my dad (whose in the shed working) I'm the only one at home. Everyone else is at work. But I have today off. which is good, because I'm not in the mood to work!

Anyhoo, going to make cupcakes! =P

shopping, sites & sims

i did some more shopping yesterday, i'm afraid to look at my bank account! because i know there is going to be no money in there at all =(

i bought 3 geek tees (starwars, transformers & marvel heros), a denim vest, and a very floral floaty (slightly hippie) top to wear under the vest. (yes i know i'm turning into a hippie (^0^)) as well as the huge amount of clothing on it's way from america! 3 pairs of pants, a belt, and numerous tops & tees, and obviously, my awesome geek hoodie!

in other news... sims 2 apartment life is awesome!!! i love apartment life, and i've finally figure out the cheat to make my own apartments... I haven't tried yet, because i've been too busy playing with the sims! YAY! (^_^)... also we made fairy cakes (just thought i'd mention that)

My plans for tonight & tomorrow [UPDATED]

• download more item for sims 2
• watch The Dudesons Season 2
• watch Chapter 27
• Play Sims 2
• make cupcakes
• sleep in
• try not to die in my sleep (because i have a blocked nose and can't breathe)
• go pick up my little sister PSP memory card from Nigel
• try and clean my room... which probably won't happen
• rock out to LOVEX
• maybe drive past stanley =D (if I have the car)

can't think of anything else... i think i can make the next 24 hours fit all that (or less) hahaha!

bye-ee

Never Wanted To Dance

Nigel & Matt helped me set up my computer to download faster. Now I can download faster. Nigel also told me what sites to use... so now I can download... I've downloaded the entire new MSI album "If" and the Sweeney Todd Soundtrack... I can also download movies and tv shows... but it would take forever. Maybe once we upgrade to faster internet... maybe.

OMG... I'm loving the Sweeney Todd Soundtrack =D and the new MSI. I found some more songs that they sang at the concert. YAY! I love broadband!

I can't believe that it's 4pm already.

I'm quite bored... I think I'm gonna go make some cupcakes =D

We Made Cupcakes

cupcakes by me, originally uploaded by Princess Geek.

My sisters and I made some cupcakes today. They were yummo and so cute and tiny. I only manged to get a few photos before they were all eaten.

Then we went to the park and played on the swings and the spinny thing, I got so dizzy. I took some photos so I'll post them when I get around to it.

Brother by Yuzuha Ougi

Brother by Yuzuha Ougi, originally uploaded by Princess Geek.

*Yaoi Manga*

"Asuka Momoki, an employee at a major advertising company, has a secret.
He's 22 years old, impotent, and still a virgin. The existence of Asuka's
younger step-brother Yui has a lot to do with it. Asuka and Yui were the
best of friends until an unfortunate incident one summer's day. Ever since
then, Yui has avoided Asuka at all costs, even going so far as to leave
Japan and study in America. A successful tennis player, Yui no longer needs
a big brother, so where does that leave poor Asuka? What happens when
brotherly love transforms into something more?" - Review from DramaQueen

*Warning* In most yaoi manga the "male parts" are blurred or half drawn, in
this one, they're not. It's very graphic... I'm not saying it's a bad
thing... but be warned. It's pretty full on.
*Watch Out* For Asuka and Yui's cute as little sister. She is the child of
Yui and Asuka's parents. She is such a cutie, with big anime eyes.

4 cupcakes out of 5 (I'm gonna find some cupcake images to add soon)

woah... there was just a big crash of thunder!! O_o

Cupcakes

I have decided that I'm going to learn how to cook. Like really cook... real food. It started on Christmas, my auntie bought me a Pavlova tray that has the recipe on it. (My Auntie is big into cooking) since then all I wanted to do is cook. And yesterday while I was reading Gala Darlings' blog, she was talking about buying some cookbooks, and I decided I want cookbooks too. I've also watched Nigella on ABC. She's strange, but I love what she cooks... fast simple yummy food. What more can you ask for?

I want to make pretty cupcakes, with colourful royal icing (I love icing) with pretty candy flowers =D I kinda want to move out of home now so I can have my own kitchen, so I can buy all kitcheny stuff.
