Scotty O’Brien

Tis has been a good night tonight. I finally got a few chapters of my book read, that I unfortunately didn’t get to last night. It’s going to be a rather sad book I think. Often Edmond seems to find happiness (or degrees there of) only to be yanked away from underneath him. In the movie, his first fiancee Mercedes, he ends up getting back together with in the end and living the remainder of his middle age life out with his wife (or, so we assume.) In this book, apparently his going to try and destroy the lives of all who have wronged him and Mercedes ends up realizing she is destined for a lonely life of solitude (personally, this is what I envision to be more or less of a living hell)

I hope the novel turns out to be a good one, hopefully not too dark and dull.. we all know how Scotty likes his happy bubble he builds. In other news, I think I’ve decided that I’d like to be a teacher.. a high school teacher. The more I think about it, the more these students could be learning fundamental concepts of computing at an earlier age, like, high school. I’d like to see the educational systems moving further away from things such as Microsoft Visual Basic, where you have no idea what’s going on behind the scenes, into much lower level languages such as C++. On the topic of C, one of my mates was telling me about Boost::Bind and Boost::Function (Still trying to get my head around them). Basically, it’s a hell of a lot nicer then creating a static function wrapper and using that as a callback to the member-function of an object… which without some form of templating I can’t seem to get my head around yet, this wouldn’t reduce coupling at all . I think I might have to enlist more help from Parkesy in this matter.. it’s really got me thinking.

In even more other Scottness related news.. I really need to start changing my habits, I mean, the past week have kind of been only days where I’ve been eating one meal per day without any form of snacking.. gawd that’s bad.. my shortish blue pants that used to fit seem now to be very loose, and my belt needs an extra hole punched into it I think. Tomorrow, I’m writing a meal plan for the week to get back on top of these kind of important things. I mean, today it wasn’t even a healthy meal, deep fried chips, potato scholaps (nooo idea how to spell that one), and a beer.. what the hell? That’s not like me (or what am I turning in to?)

I try in this life, I may never amount to much, or get any form of recognition for my efforts, but at the end, when I stand before God.. I won’t be able to say I’ve been a good christian, I can’t say I’ve ever taken a weak interest in the bible. I can’t I’ve lived a good christian life, but I think I try to make people happy, and would certainly not like to harm anyone.. I hope my moral system is enough for him, and I’m not lying to myself about it…

Just a blog post to write how tonights plans did not go as planned…. Thanks a lot! .. hahaha, nahh, it was fun

Two cows are standing next to each other in a field. Daisy says to Dolly, “I was artificially inseminated this morning.” “I don’t believe you,” says Dolly. “It’s true, no bull!” exclaims Daisy.

I post a lot at times late at night when I’m feeling like crap, but now it’s time for a new post, a post made just around the corner to the old one, a post of happy feelings. I am feeling pretty darn awesome at the moment. Just had a night where I can relax, I’ve decided to take the night off to just sit and read my book. I’m up to a good part in it as well, Edmond Dantes is talking to his prisoner friend a great deal and have just spent a year on education. They are now talking again of murder and escape to win their freedom, and using their study of philosophy to justify it ;P

Now why was today so special? I really don’t know. Perhaps it was just the sun having (literally) finally come out again? I guess I just kind of enjoyed today.. and I felt good before heading into my class, and I’m sure I’ve said how good and how much I’m on a buzz after I teach, but yeah, I’ve been awesome. My walk home reflected that I guess. ‘Messages’ from Xavier Rudd came on shuffle with my iPod, a little bird joyfully flew out from a tree as I was walking past. The light was shining through pollen over the mountain making it kind of look a bit magical (I’m going to miss not living near that mountain after the year.) the little flying bugs were dancing in the light, then I ran into someone on campus who also happens to share my last name on the way home. It was good, had a good chat for a good 10 or 15 minutes with her.. it’s funny how when you’re in a happy mood, other people seem to be happy too . Ooo, and some happy news. I have someone to go to Little Birdy with! . Mullers sister said she wouldn’t mind if I tagged along. I’m sooo immensely looking forward to seeing Little birdy

I’m going to have a good night sleep! Promise to be in bed by 9:30pm and catch up with some good habits. Time to give home a phone call I think. Catch ya’s soon, hopefully not on the flip side
