Any Way You Want It
27th April 2010 with 37 comments
I just realised that Any Way You Want It by Rise Against is a cover of the Journey song. I can’t listen to the song without cracking up, because I think of this scene from TBBT.
I’m out of The Big Bang Theory episodes to watch. I’m up to date. I’ll have to wait a while to see the next episode though, because television is behind in Australia.
I’ll have to find something else to occupy my time (because I’m not watching the lot again, that would be overkill)… like my assignments! 
I’ve done about half of one of my assignments. I started pulling it together only tonight, though. Bits and pieces are done – I just gotta pull it together.
And I am meeting at least one of my group members on Thursday. This in regards to one of my other assignments. So many assignments! 
Another thing to complain about: my big toe. It hurts! I thought the nail was too long so I cut it, but then I cut it too short. Which my mum pointed out, and told me to put iodine on it. It’s so fat and red, ew. James would approve of the iodine though. 
My brother got a laptop today – our state’s government gives out laptops to some school students. (Apparently they ran out of money so not all schools got it.) But it’s not as good as it sounds – it’s only meant for educational purposes. The laptops have been custom made so that no one except the student can use it. My brother is the only one who can log in. If he loses the laptop, anyone who finds it will find it useless.
Also, websites like Facebook and Hotmail are blocked. I told my brother to download Firefox, and I started thinking up all these ways of hacking the system, even though deep down I knew it was bad.
My brother said if he changed any settings or tried to use it to his advantage, he could really be busted and they would take the laptop away. Because of the webcam in the laptop, he thought that they were recording us.
“What? No!” I exclaimed. “They can’t do that. They can take it and see if you’ve changed the settings but they cannot record you when you use it, especially not at home.”
“Then why is this here…? And why is there a microphone in it?”
“That’s just to set up the microphone. In no way are they allowed to record you like that without your permission. It’s an invasion of privacy. It’s in breach of the Law of…”
Damn, Lilian knows the answer to that one. 
Haha, I love your smilies!
The nails look so weird, almost like they are in grown. I buff them and paint them, and thats pretty much all I do to take car of them, as well as soak them in hot water every now and again. I’m not embarrassed by them, but they are really ugly. 
Except a glowing hand probably won’t reach out of your brother’s laptop’s screen and melt his mind. Hrrng. 33333
Brandon’s going to give me How I Met Your Mother. 
What a fail. I am missing quite a few RA songs anyway but that’s not the point! I’ll check it out soon.
in everyone’s minds. I don’t really see what they like in it.

Okay! Hopefully this comment makes sense because I am really tired
so I may make seeveral spelling errors and stuff and neglect to correct them on the count of being so tiredddddd 
Anyways!
(8) ANY WAY YOU WANT IT, THAT’S THE WAY YOU NEED IT (8) I love that song
It is AWESOME. 
The Rise Against version is better than the original 
And LOL @ that TBBT clip. I still can’t get over how bad a dancer Shedlon is 
Wow. You DO seem to have a LOT of assignments
Hahaha, I only have the one, which I HAVE BARELY STARTED AND OMG, I AM SO STRESSED 
Anyways, you did half of one tonight
So YAY! Hahaha. Take a break 
Woot! And I still can’t believe that someone from your group EMAILED you 
WOW. What a crazy revelation. I hope call goes well in your meeting 
Your poor Big Toe
I hate it when I cut my nails too much and then the nail bed gets disturbed 
Good call with the Iodine. Lucky you don’t have to go to ballet 
Otherwise that could be potentially in-the-way. Haha! Hopefully it heals soon 
Oh yeaaaaaah! I forgot about the laptops for school. Hahaha. I can’t believe we missed out
Well the laptops seem pretty…crappy anyways 
Especially with all that blocked crap 
At least they’re customised! Hahahahaha 
I’d get so annoyed if they blocked hotmail and facebook. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO COMMUNICATED WITH MY MOOTING TEAM OTHERWISE?! 
But then again, they are pretty distracting.
HAHAHA! Trust the Rudd Government to run out of money == HMPH!
Oh my god. No way. They can’t film you without your permission! Hahaha. That would totally be morally wrong. If someone found out about that. God. There would be uproar. They’re totally not allowed to film you or take any sound bites unless it’s there are extreme circumstances like you’re accused of terrorism or something. It’s a breach of privacy laws! They just CAN’T do that! They’d get into SO much trouble, if they did, unless Brandon signed something and there was a clause in that agreement allowing them to film. LOL. Did he have to sign something? Cos if he did, and it doesn’t mention anything about filming and stuff, they can’t do it. It’s illegal!
Hahaa, I actually have to look that up because I don’t know it off the top of my head
Bad me 
But I am 90% sure that it’s a breach of the UN Convention on Human Rights, and also a violation of COUNTLESS human rights laws in Australia, a breach of our right to privacy (which is a fundamental human right), privacy laws in general and I’m pretty sure it’d be inadmissible as evidence cos there’s been no warning about your being recorded.
And it’s SO unethical!!!

Aw! *hugs* You didn’t have to leave a comment, but you were first anyway after such a long comment.
I love that song too! Rise Against’s version is a lot better.
Sheldon is terrible at dancing… he as a character was not meant to dance, that’s for sure.
Don’t stress! You’ll get it done! And I’ll get mine done… me, being a lazy butt. Yep.
I hope we get at least some things sorted out; I don’t like having things lying around when it comes to a group assignment. Even if it’s just two of us, that’s half.
LOL very true. Last night I was in such pain when I went to bed that it was hard to sleep because I could feel my toe throbbing.
It’s crappy, trust me, it’s not worth it. The laptops are crappy. I’m glad my parents and I spent time looking for a laptop that would suit me and work for me.
There are apparently a lot of news stories about some schools in the UK and US spying on children.
It’s so wrong. There wasn’t an agreement but there were guidelines to follow about using the laptop. I don’t think I saw it, though.
