Things on the top of The Vigilante's to-do list: FIND THE F*****G LIST
Hey, readers
AVENGERS!!! I went and saw it with my mother and the Red Dwarf last night. Now, for anyone who doesn't know, I'm a massive comic book geek, so when I heard this movie was coming out, I was ecstatic. All of the gods of comic books (in one case, literally) on one screen, how could I not be excited? I'm pretty sure I was emitting some sort of high-pitched noise as we walked into the theatre. By the time I got to my seat, I was positively vibrating with excitement. You know, now that I think about it, there really isn't a manly way I can say that. I was up until about four in the morning because I was too pumped to fall asleep, much like A Day On The Green. I'm doing English homework now, I realised half an hour ago that I had to do a paper that's due in tomorrow. Yeah, that my homework habits; remember the day before, then speed-write something.

FOR LITERATURE STUDENTS
Just wanted to put up a note for anyone in my Literature class.
You may remember that a few weeks back, I mentioned getting Fanfiction.com to create a page for stories about Julia Leigh's The Hunter. Well, I succeeded, so anyone that was in Lit last year, drag out the stories that you did from the back of your closets, and put them on the website.

No ANZAC biscuits for me, just fried chicken
Wednesday, 25th April, 6:49pm
Current whereabouts of list: UNKNOWN
Hey, readers
Ah, ANZAC Day. A day which had unfortunatly become more synonymous with football than its actual meaning. I propose a twenty-line blankness in recognition of the day.
Rest in peace.
Now, onto what I actually did today. Seeings how I basically had nothing to do around the house (re. avoiding homework), I strolled over to The Kenster's place to see what he was up to. Turns out, they're moving houses, so they were cleaning the place up in order to sell it when I got there. Me being the nice person I am (shut up, stop laughing) I volunteered to help, so The Kemster and I ended up pressure-cleaning the pavement. I even got paid, too, though not in money. The Kemster's mum, an extremely tiny Philipino woman by the name of Rose, is by far the best cook I've ever met. Her chicken wings are the stuff of legend at my school. She makes awesome food, and she makes LOTS of it. So when we walked inside, there's two MASSIVE bowls on the table, one filled with fried rice, the other with some kind of deep-fried chicken, just for us. I tell you, walking back was a lot harder than walking there, I felt like a stomach with legs. Well, more than usual.

READERS!! Listen up! while I was forced offline by dodgy lines, I still managed to write, until I gave up. Here's the post that was meant to go on the first day of my Internet starvation:

Fun things to do in an exam, #24: Light the exam on fire. Try and convince the instructor it's the Olympic Torch
Hey, readers
First off, 1000 VIEWS!! YES!! Amazingly, I'm not as ecstatic as I thought I would be, back at 100 views, but that's still pretty awesome. Thank you to everyone who's taken a look at the blog, and I hope you continue to in the future.
Anyway on to the other stuff. I've actually had a really good day so far. Classes weren't boring, food was good, and I got into a Nerf war at lunch. One of my friends, who I haven't thought of a name for yet, decided to bring her Maverick to school, thinking she could ambush me. Luckily, Cripty B had a pair of blasters in her bag, so we happily pwned her. No, that wasn't a typo, and yes, I do know what it means. I am a gamer, you know.

Fritzy Interwebs
Monday, 23rd April, 4:52pm
Fun things to do in an exam: Lost the list again, I really need to make some copies of it.
Hey, readers
Egad! I'm actually logged on! My interwebs has been on the fritz for the last five days or so, which is why I have posted anything. But it's fine now, my trolling habits can continue. I was worried there for a while, I thought I'd have to start posting these by pigeon mail.
So, I had something really scary happen today. I did a Psychology test, and I walked out of it thinking "I really enjoyed that." Creepy, huh? I got to do a box plot graph to go with it, too. Don't know what that is? Go get some learning in you, you redneck hick.
It was wierd, but in Literature the other day, El Directore told me I need to "put more feeling into the blog". Da hell?! Dude, I'll do my best, but this is just a day-to-day blog of my life, not some diary of emo poems.

Just a little something
Tuesday, 17th April, 5:57pm
Fun things to do in an exam #23: Answer the entire exam as if it were multiple choice or true/false. If it is, try and spell out interesting things.;
Hey, readers
It's really hard to concentrate on writing this right now, because Red Dwarf and Cripty B are at my house, and having a Nerf war over my head. Cripty's got the Stampede, and RD's got the Vulcan, which is about one and a half times the size of her. We're meant to be doing homework. Yeah, like that was going to happen. It was a pretty ordinary day at school, just went to classes. So far this term, I haven't gotten any homework, at least none that I couldn't do in three minutes. So, yeah, that's pretty much I'm going to write. I know, it's short, sue me and get over it.

I'm back, bitches!!
Monday, 16th April, 4:54pm
Fun things to do in an exam #22: Turn in the exam approximately ten minutes after you've been handed it. As you walk out, comment on how easy it was.
Hey, readers
Aaaaaaaaaaaand we're back, live, with The Vigilante! Sorry I haven't posted anything for a while. The past week has basically been just been seven days of (pretending that I'm) doing homework. Still, I'm back at school now, so my usual routines are back. I'm kind of amazed that I made it through today without falling asleep, I only got three hours sleep last night. I'm still in my holiday sleep patterns, which means hitting the hay at four in the morning, and waking up at noon. So, bed at four, but then my alarm woke me at seven. I don't drink coffee, so I'm not entirely sure how I'm still running. They changed my classes around for the new term, so I no longer have Literature on Monday morning. I've got maths, which I can just cruise through. I thought I had English on the last two periods, which is my favourite class, but noooo, I had to have Lit then. In case you haven't figured it out, Literature's not my favourite subject. I would have dropped it by now if I could, but they locked in my classes at the start of the years, so no changing. Damn.

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!
Sunday, 8th April, 7:14pm
Fun things to do in an exam #21: Every five minutes, stand up collect your things, move to another desk, comtinue the exam.
Hey readers,
I want to talk about something today, and I'm sure that most of you are going to stop reading when I start. But that's alright, I just want to get this off my chest. It's my English class, I reckon it's bullshit. You know what we did in English last year? Identity and Belonging. I mean, what the hell? You do a French class, you learn about the French language. You do an Indonesian class, you learn about the Indonesian language. You English, though, and you learn about Identity and goddamn Belonging! The whole bloody thing was about Schindler's List, too. You want me to learn about Schindler's List? Teach me it in History, WHERE IT BELONGS. I dare you to try and remember the last English class you had where you actually learned about the English language. Go on, try. You can't, can you? Now, I love writing, which is one of the reasons I started this blog. But I had to teach myself my of the skills I needed to become a decent writer, because my English teacher didn't! You want to know a secret? You know how adults complain agout text language, like l8r instead of later? They can't blame us for jack shit. Want to know why? BECAUSE THEY NEVER TAUGHT US PROPER ENGLISH, THEY TAUGHT US ABOUT IDENTITY AND BELONGING. Now, I know that this isn't the teacher's fault. They're just teaching what the government tells them to teach. So, if anyone reading this know someone in the goverment, get them to send this throu th Peter Garrett. Let's see if the bald-headed bastard does anything about it.

Cooking with Drac and The Vigilante
Saturday, 7th April, 8:18pm
Fun things to do in an exam #20: Walk into the exam with an entourage. Claim you are going to be taping your next video during the exam. Try to get the instructor to let them stay, be persuasive. Tell the instructor to excpect a percentage of the profits if they are allowed to stay. (Found the list, it was behind the toilet. Don't ask me how it got there.)
Hey, readers.
Once again, sorry for not posting every day. During the "study break", I'm not really doing anything interesting, so I'm really only posting when I've got something to write about. As it is, I figured I might as well do some shameless advertising. There's a channel on Youtube called EverydayAlchemy that's run by a guy hamed Drac, who's my go-to guy for Nerf. But this channel's more based on cooking, so that's what I've been doing. I'll admit, I'm not the greatest cook in the world (I burn cereal), but I'd dare say that I can cook a mean caramel slice, thanks to Drac. I had to make the recipe twice as big, though. It IS me we're talking about.

BE PROUD OF ME!!
Thursday, 5th March, 8:07pm
Fun things to do in an exam: Um, here's the thing. I kind of maybe might have lost the list. I know, I'm sorry, but this part is put on haitus until I can either find the list, or come up with something else to put here.
Hey, readers.
Okay, so another day in Albury today. Well, to be precise, I was out with my dad for the morning, just kind of cruising around as he checked on some of the houses being built that he's supervising. After a breakfast of pies and coffee, we headed into Albury. He had a job to do over in Chiltern, so I jumped out and decided to hang around the city. I ended up talking for two and a half hours to a friend of mine, one of the guys who runs both Bear's Old Wares in Yack, and The Buddhist Shop (Yes, that's actually what it's called) in Albury. I did a good thing, too. I saw another Nerf blaster on sale, and my hand automatically reached for my wallet. But I was like, "No, V, one per week is enough." So, yeah, I'm proud of myself. No one else seems to be.

Busybody? More like LAZYbody!
Wednesday, 4th March, 8:00pm
Fun things to do in an exam #?: Beats me, I can't find the list.
'Sup, readers.
I've got to admit, I'm having trouble coming up with things to write about. All I'm really doing during this "study break", is believe it or not, studying. I know, believe me, if there's anyone who thinks of studying as a mythical thing that couldn't possibly happen, it's me. But I figured that if I'm not doing anything useful, mainly because I finished all my Playstation games, I might as well be doing somrthing that will get me brownie points with the teachers. Although I didn't do much studying today, I only woke up at about one in the afternoon. Now, this definitely isn't the first time that'sd happened, but it's usually because I went to sleep at four in the morning. For the record, I usually hit the sack at about two. But the reason I was confused today was becuase I went to sleep last night at midnight. MIDNIGHT!! The sun was practically still up!! Well, obviously not, but you get my point. Why the hell wasn't I up at the crack of dawn?! Did my body just decide, "Screw this, I'm feeling lazy. I'm shutting down for the next twelve hours"?! What if something important happened, and I missed it?! What if someone made cookies, and I didn't get any?! IT COULD HAVE BEEN ANARCHY!! Ah, screw this. I'm going back to sleep.

I think my ceiling is made out of ten year old paper.
Tuesday, 3rd April, 9:49pm
Fun things to do in an exam #19: As soon as the instructor hands you the exam, eat it.
Hey, readers.
Sorry I haven't posted anything for the last couple of days. To tell the truth, all I was doing was staring at my ceiling, wondering what colour it was. For the record, I decided it's the same colour as ten year old paper. Hmm, maybe it IS ten year old paper. In a three year old house? Oh. My. God. TIME TRAVELLING PAPER!! You get the picture. I didn't do enough to post anything decent. So I didn't bother. But I went into Albury today. I know, some of you are like "V, you were out during sunlight! Are you okay?!'' And to you I say get stuffed, I'm not that much of a nerd. Anyway, I had to get a present for my mother, whose birthday is coming up soon. In case she's reading this, I'm not going to say what I got her. But afterwards, as I was shooting the shit, waiting for the bus. I noticed a Nerf blaster on sale. Me being the sucker for sales that I am, I was like, "TAKE MY MONEY!!" and then proceeded to run out of there, giggling like a little girl. Yeah, I know, not exactly manly, even for me. Eh, whatever. I spent the rest of my time at the library, looking up Nazism for Drama class. Trust me, there is ALWAYS an awkward moment when you ask the librarian for books on Nazism.
