Roy Morgan's Ultimate Survey

Okay so I was digging through some of my old stuff today and I found this computer program that I thought I had lost as I had not seen it in years and searched for it often, its called 'Ultimate Survey' and was put together by Roy Morgan Research (www.roymorgan.com.au). The game is actually enlightening and at times very funny... Basically you pick a season (summer, winter, autumn or spring), a character (female viking, alien, Guy in a severe amount of amour or an old man) and then the length of the maze you wish to complete (small, medium or large)... You begin the game and the aim is to complete the maze but as you go you come across question marks which display questions that you have to answer... anyways the results can be quite strange!!!!

Apparently I am...

mean, patient, antisocial, anthropophobic (fear of people), dumb, disliked, retiring, solitudious, courteous, browsing person.


so yes... I bet you totally want to know me now right?!?!!!! I have no idea why it thinks I am mean it may have something to do with the question regarding 'if someone made you an awful cup of coffee you would A) drink it anyway b) leave it there till it gets cold and not drink it C) cough and splutter and make a scene' and I said b! I think it also decided that I am 'retiring' cause I said I liked Classical and Religious music and go to church regularly. The disliked comes from the funeral question I think they asked how many peeps I thought would be at my funeral if I died today A)thousands B) close friends and family C) few hundred and I said B!

Oh well it is enlightening in a cutting and blunt kinda way!

SUBJECTS for 2011

This year at Uni I will be taking on a myriad of things!! Here is what I am studying...

first semester I will embark on a journey into the uncharted waters of Information and Communication Technologies and Education which is a) a mouthful and b) probably not as exciting as it sounds!!!! I will Approach literature that is written in English and be introduced to Creative writing while icing all these experiences with European History from the french revolution to fascism!!!!
Second Semester will force me to learn about education and go into the depths of cognitive development followed by a touch of war and peace in World history... I will then set sale for Modern Europe (although I am pretty sure I will be already located there) where I will entice my brain with religious reform and conflict! Once the Church has been sorted out I will then include myself in conversations about inclusive education! before jumping in my time machine to check out the Ancient world with a focus on Pagans, Christians and Jews that tend to reside in Athens and Jerusalem!

SO! There you have it! Much excitement! ;)

INVASION DAY

Okay... so Today it is the 26th of January... and cause I live in Australia that means it is a public holiday due to the fact that it is 'Australia Day.'
Australia day celebrates Captains James Cooks discovery of Australia...

I would now like to say I HATE 'AUSTRALIA DAY' I mean it celebrates the invasion of Australia where white people came and took over!!!!!!! (NO I AM NOT BIAS AS I AM A WHITE AUSTRALIAN)... It should be renamed ' INVASION DAY' in my opinion!!!! BECAUSE THATS WHAT IT IS SO TELL IT LIKE IT IS!!! oh and did I mention that Captain Cook was not the first to discover Australia?!!!!! after all the Aborigines were already here and not to mention the dutch had hit the top west side at one stage!!!!!

I MEAN SERIOUSLY!!! BUT wait there is more...we celebrate mateship! what it means to be Australian and blah!!!! HELLOOO MATESHIP IS a term from WWI used between soldiers it has nothing to do with our Cook friend!!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!! Not to mention it excludes half the population because it also has ZILCH to do with women!!!!! What it means to be Australian is also convoluted... as we are diverse and supposedly multicultural... it is true that 'from all the lands on earth we come.'

Why does this country celebrate a day that causes pain for indigenous peoples because of the history and excludes all people that are not WHITE with some sort of EUROPEAN decent!
And what does the day mean for people anyway??? usually equates to drinking way to much then traffic accidents from drunks... people acting like complete lunatics and bumming around!!!!

If we are going to celebrate something I think the day Captain Cook 'discovered' Australia is the wrong day! Why don't we celebrate the day we federated? or if not the day at least the year we federated... that was an important part of Australian history... and not as much of a sore point.

some people say but its a great day to get family together and what not... and okay fair enough but then why don't we have a 'family day' instead?!

That is my rant for the evening!

burritos


hello my trustworthy readers... At the moment i am hanging out with my chum Francesca. Somehow we got onto burritos...(it was all Francesca's idea!!!) and consequently I am now starving for a burrito!!!
I will now take this opportunity to tell you about my favourite types of Burritos

The BREAKFAST BURRITO is an epic combination of AWESOMENESS and BEAUTY wrapped up for the happiness of all mankind!!!!!
I have two favourite Breakfast Burritos...
The first usually contains:
  • Sour Cream
  • Sweet Chilli Sauce
  • 2 Bacon Rashes
  • Scrambled Eggs
  • Cheese
The Second:
  • BBQ Sauce
  • 2 Bacon Rashes
  • Egg
  • Cheese
Normal Burritos that satisfy hunger during the periods of lunch and dinner often result in containing some or all of the following ingredients:
  • Chicken
  • Cheese
  • Lettuce
  • Avocado
  • Sour Cream
  • Sweet Chilli Sauce
  • BBQ Sauce
  • Tomato
  • Bacon
  • Mince
  • Black Beans
  • AND MORE (nothing else comes to mind right at this critical moment of my life)
so there you have it my burrito rant... I am now officially starving for burritos... and the whole affair is making me rather depressed as I have not the means or resources of acquiring a burrito during this crucial hour of need.
