"The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier is supposed to function: without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it."

"As much as we don't get on, we don't not get on. He's my brother, that's where it ends. He's the last person in the world I'd go for a drink with - the last person. Seriously. If there was Armageddon tomorrow and I was walking through the nuclear waste of the planet and I saw him coming towards me in the distance, I'd be like, 'Couldn't it have not been someone else? Did it have to be you?' And he would think the same thing." - Noel on Liam

Two quotes struck me today. The first is from a reading off the book, "The Glass Palace".
'Dolly,' repeated Rajkumar. 'Dolly'. He could think of nothing else to say, or as much worth saying, so he said the name again louder and louder, until he was shouting. 'Dolly. Dolly.
Reminds me of Napoleon, and his last words on St Helena. Now, whenever I think about this I get sad, because such a great man, the man who required a Battle of The Nations at Leipzig to bring him down, died in obscurity. But perhaps, it is better than being sent to madam guillotine.
The other quote of the day, is off a retarded conversation Alvyn and I were having.
Alvyn rambles on about what a cock his brother is.
Me: Are you sure neither one of you was adopted?
Alvyn: No I don't think so.
*You think it ends here.
Alvyn: At least, I know my brother's not adopted cuz I remember his birth, but I'm not sure about me, cuz I really don't remember much of my birth.
But because he gave me quite a gay, but lovingly written card today, I shall...ah nevermind.

It was much, much more than a nothingness.
It was a silence,
and in that silence,
there was us.
And I thought to myself,
if perhaps, just for that moment,
the universe was conspiring to slow time down,
to give us more time.
And I thought to myself,
this must be perfection.
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks,
I'll follow you into the dark.

Let me romanticise, just for tonight.
Today, I was sergeant Lipton. I held my rifle, and I shuddered. I saw my men, and I felt burden. I saw the enemy, I saw nothing. It is an empty desert, with imaginary targets, and I shoot them down one by one. An invisible stream of blood appears. I crouch behind the air, for I fear the enemy might see me. I drink, only to vomit.
I celebrate, because it is over. I contemplate whether it had ever started. The battle is over, the war is over. My war has begun. Fear.
For there she stands. Rebecca. Her face showing. I can see her. I am not willing to die for her. I will die for her.
A courtly love romance.

Sometimes, when I listen to Ashtar Command (especially 'Into Dust'), I get scared because of their background story. It's more like a curious fear that transcends this world, perhaps literally.
On another note, the past week has solidified my passion and commitment to RAG, so much so that I find joy in the planning and working. I was thinking about it, and at the end of the day, after the competition, all that's left for us is the dismantling of the float, down to every last screw and bolt. But I guess it doesn't really matter, and perhaps all the more meaningful of sorts, because we will be dismantling what we built, RAG, our RAG.

"'I have had my time at Man United. It's time to look forward and £80m is quite a sum of money. This deal is historic,'' said Ronaldo. ''It's flattering when two of the top teams in the world want you to play for them."

Manchester United is a club I love. And I would say things, things considered to be desecrating by any loyal fan, to preserve what I hold on to dearly. You say you want to leave. I say I've never wanted you here. It's not that you are a bad player, you are one of the best. You are not the best, as your encounter at Barcelona should have taught you well. You do, however, have a bad character, and that, for me, poses a threat to the integrity of the club. You are a compromise. This club is founded and maintained by people like Sir Bobby Charlton, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Roy Keane, Ole Gunner Solskjaer and Sir Alex Ferguson, who above all else, possess a raw commitment to the club that will attach them to the end of their careers. They understand the saying that no man is bigger than the club. Your heart is not in the game, is not in the club. You will be forgotten.
So yes, CR, so long, and thanks for all the fish.

Today's my first 'off' day from RAG in I have no idea how long. Feels kinda weird to be at home (the irony is that I'm on holiday now), think I've grown pretty attached to the central forum, along with the weird computing/programmer/hacker/nuclear scientist/maybe he's just computing RAG's spy guy, who's there 24/7. Currently, Raymond and I are speculating on where he bathes, or if he even bathes at all. Yikes.
Yesterday, I felt really inspired when I saw Rosie's structure coming into place, as well as the roofs. I'm not going to bother explaining what I felt. You had to be there, and you had to be involved to know that peculiar feeling of ecstasy (ah ecstasy). Watching last year's RAG's celebratory video on Monday, all I could think about was, "I want that." Pure. Simple. Raw.
Anyway, I'm waiting for episode 8 of Harper's Island to be downloaded. So, I thought I'd make a few guesses of my own as to who the killer might be.

Chloe Carter - Nah, I don't think it's her. She was away with Cal when some of the killings took place. Plus, she's too pretty.

Cal Vandeusen - He has acted in Epic and Date Movie. No.

Jimmy Mance - Too hot. No.

Danny Brooks and Sully Sullivan - I think they're going to die soon.

Trish Wellington - Nah. Too psychologically damaged.

Henry Dunn - Too goody-too-shoes.
And so, my prediction for the killer is...........

Abby Mills - I think she's the daughter of John Wakefield (hence, the blood percentage match in an earlier episode). It will be revealed that she has a split personality (schizophrenia) and that she is in fact, doing all the killings.
We shall see.

I don't usually bitch about things in such explicit fashion, but there are some things in the world I cannot stand. Photographers with 0 EQ levels is one of them. With the proper aid of (nicely-drawn) diagrams, I shall attempt to explain what happened that night.

For the whole night, mr 0 EQ was hogging the front of the stage. As you can see from the picture, it is hard for ANYONE to take any photo of the stage without including him in it. He would not move, and we're not talking about 10-20mins, we're talking about 4-5 hours. I had a headache, and had not eaten all day. Now him. Thus, most of my shots turned out like this.


And when they didn't include him, the photos looked quite uneven, because I had to aim my shot high enough to avoid his cap. Which leads me on to another point. How in the world do you shoot with a cap on?!
Okay sorry but there are somethings in this world which are just......ugh.
