Well hello there.
Sometimes my life seems to move in waves. Recently, things have been happening that make me sit down and question myself, and the world around me. One example of such is 'coincidence'. Lately, I have been noticing a lot of things that appear to happen due to previous events. Mostly they are minor things. For example, I sat down to create this blog and decided to give it a Hitchhiker's GTTGalaxy kind of title. I don't know why, but it seemed fairly appropriate. Then, a few minutes later, I look up linkbacking on the help section of blogger, and they have an example showing Arthur Dent (the man from HHGttG).
One may simply put this down to coincidence. But for me it happens in 'chunks'. For ages I will go without having this happen to me. But then it starts happening ALL THE TIME. And by that I mean, 3 or 4 times a day something will happen that causes me to stop and think exactly what I'm thinking now. It is cyclic, if you will.
Saw Resident Evil: Extinction tonight. Pretty jumpy film, even for me. Seemed to be over far too quickly though. Lined up for a(another) sequel quite nicely. I was pouring a glass of water when I got home, and started thinking about what would happen if a virus or some such -was- to break loose and infect the human race. What would happen? What would I do? I doubt I have the confidence or leadership skills to be a survivor. But faced with a situation like that, would something be unlocked within me? Would a basic survival instinct override my psychological personality? And what is it like to be undead, anyway?
Nightmare journey on the way home from uni today. Ignoring the blatant screwup by the uni which resulted in there being no RM tutorial (meaning I had stayed for an extra hour and a half for nothing...), waiting for a bus, in the rain, for an hour and a half is not my idea of fun. These buses are supposed to run every 20 minutes. So of course, when one -does- show up, there are 50 people who are desperate to get home piled into this bus. Being 6ft 3, trying to sit on bus seats with no leg room, and squished in a window seat for a 1.5 hour journey home kinda makes me think 'is it all worth it?". At least I had my ipod.
Until it died 15 minutes into the journey.
I felt like screaming ARRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I want dinner. But I'm not hungry. But dinner. *runs*

That could have been a post on my blog! Seriously, I talk about coincidence a fair bit. My life works that way too, and it's truly bizarre. Man, I gots stories. ;)
Sorry I haven't emailed in a while, I was gonna talk to you on msn and then I forgot to reply... slack, I know!
Hooray you live ^^
I was just flipping through your blog actually and looking at a few of the tags, and came across a coincidence post! I was like 'Oooh', hehe.
Well I have added you to msn. My address is somewhat the same as my display name on this thing. I think I will write a song this very second...
