Being for the Benefit of Mr. Fitzpatrick!

And thus I return from my internet slumber.

It's been awhile since I've last used the internet as the college internet is quite gay, people constantly looking over your shoulder, websites blocked, hows a bro to look up some porn?

Life without the internet forced me to find new ways to amuse myself at home, what a bloody hell that was I must say. Needless to say my whole exercise routine thing I said I'd undertake awhile back in this blog took a massive shot in the arm. However the results are starting to show! I have mostly lost all unnecessary body fat and the definition of muscle is starting to show, my aim (one shared by Frank) of a John Morrison-esque body is closer than ever, HURRAH!

Learning Piano has come along a bit too, however unlike exercise I find it difficult to gather together an hour or two of time a day for it. I have learnt a few songs though and I'm quite proud of my rendition of the Song of Healing, sadly nobody has come close to recognising it yet, these philistines need to pick up a nintendo 64 controller.

I have made time with no internet for some significant show watching.
Kudos must go to Cathal for introducing me to Adventure Time, such a glorious show full of magic, wonder and hilarity. Smallville has also gotten a lot of watching, season eight is pretty damn fantastic and I hear the ninth is even better, bodacious.
Dragonball Kai is also awesome, if you ain't seen Z check it out, it takes out most of the boring crap though it can feel very disjointed in places. I do warn though it may be my nostalgia that makes me like kai.
Earthworm Jim, now this is a show. I can't remember it being this funny but listening to Jim yell fills me with the happiness of a warm gun, mama.
Season seven of The Office, oh hell yes, this show could be about Michael sitting on the toilet for an hour trying to hammer out a difficult bowel movement and I'd still be in stitches, a pox on the next season with its new Michael.
JERSEY FUCKING SHORE, oh sweet jesus, this is quite possibly the greatest show I have ever watched. There's these 4 muscle bound dudes and 4 pretty unattractive girls and by damn it reaches all new kinds of hilarity. I especially love the episodes when (I forget his name) the guy that looks like he plays rugby goes out and finds someone to beat the crap out of.
Oh and there's this dude called 'The Situation' first off, when the hell did he decide to christen himself that and secondly why did 'The Event' or 'The Happening' not take his fancy. You see it's actually some sort of ingenius PUA technique though. This man goes up to women rubs his abs on them and says "Looks like we got a situation here!" and god bless him it works almost everytime, bros got style.
Then There's this annoying girl called Snooki, now I despise this chick and wasn't going to watch the show because of her but hell she knows how to throw a fist. I advise all to check out the show as it something that a pantheon of gods couldn't replicate at their finest hour.

Yesterday I quite possibly watched the greatest film of all time. Napoleon Dynamite! I'd never seen the film before as to be quite honest I'd never really heard of it outside of that dance in World of Warcraft. I'd also see those 'Vote for Pedro' t-shirts on someone once a month but I always thought they were some Mexican political statement, I be feelin' quite silly. Anyways, the movie was so ridiculously funny I almost spurted milk out my nipple.None of it made sense, the main charachter was a condescending, defensive asshat with the same facial expression all the time but by god do I want to watch it all again. I say we get a double movie night of Napoleon Dynamite and Ferris Bueller's Day off going. It would be extreme heat chilli sauce.

Music wise I haven't been able to expand my horizons very much without the internet as I refuse to buy albums which left me looping some of the stuff I'd been listening to since Christmas. Since the sun has started beaming in the past few days however I have started getting back into listening to the Beatles. I guess it's because I listened to all the remastered stuff during last summer but everytime the sun starts shining all I want to do is turn on the beatles and go outside and play some frisbee or something. I used to never appreciate the sun but by hell do I love it at the minute. Sunny days give the greatest feeling ever. Just knowing that I can go out and lie on the grass and relax is a bodacious feeling. I'm so tempted to take up an outside sport now but I digress.
Outside of the Beatles I've mostly been listening to The Beach Boys, My Chem, Panic!, Foo Fighters, 30 Seconds to Mars, Arcade Fire, Five for Fighting (under-appreciated to an ugly extreme) and of course my new favourite Vampire Weekend (who have the honor of having he only new album I've listened to in like a month, relish it lads, relish it).

College lately has become quite a miserable bitch. My lack of enthusiasm for working has come back to haunt me as my work pile continiues to stack and stack to the point I feel it pointless to attempt it but alas I'l give it the olde college try (do ho ho) soon enough. However my attendance has been exemplerary so far and today has been the first day I said sod it and didn't go in, I feel this may trollop off a bit though now that the nice weather is here. I'm not going to waste such nice weather listening to lecturers winge about cinema and cameras, this is relaxin' weather, summer cannot come quite fast enough at the minute.

Huh it seems today is Valentines Day, I had no clue it was today, I thought it wasn't till Friday, Happy Valentines Day to all I guess? Carrying on, I shall be doing some themed blog posts very soon, possibly one out tonight so keep an ever vigilante eye out, till then, Adios all.
