Task rundown spectacular!!

Circle of Life

Did this one on Thursday. I got woken up because I left my window open and some retards came past shouting and I couldnt get back to sleep. That was about 4.30am. I sat on the sofa with the dog and watched at about 5 min intervals as the sun came up. Later on, I went to work where I fortunately caught the sundown. It was inbetween 6.30 and 7.20pm before it went fully dark. Done.

Blog it

I failed, I just couldnt think about anything worth blogging. Thinking now, I could have blogged through my adventures in task land. Ah well.

The year ahead

Here it is, Its not this small in reality (its A4) but in the process of changing from PDF to JPG it shrank. EDIT: I just re-read the task. I do have an A4 version of this, This is just the digital version for purposes of displaying here.

I was watching Edward Scissorhands at the time. Om nom nom.

Cabin Fever

Yesterday, I was locked in my bedroom from 0:00 till 0:01 the next day. I thought it would be boring, But it wasnt really. My brother was helpful with a steady supply of tea and I ordered a pizza in for my dinner. I kept busy on my 360, Playing FIFA and Fallout 3, But no laptop. I left it downstairs :fp:

Thats not the best bit, I had a friend.

Dave is a laugh a minute, Although he was hogging the xbox most of the time, I dont mind though, Cus hes bald.

He just got all the Bobbleheads, Still wont let me play!

Banjo: Week 5

Easy

The Circle Of Life
I attempted this on Friday and was halfway complete when the weather took a turn for the gloomy, runing my cahcne to see the sunset. However, i managed it the next day, during my Cabin Fever. Was rather lovely, never seent he sunrise before, always either fall asleep or look away and forget.

I'd say that's a different style to my usual posting. Tomorrow, who knows, maybe some fiction?


Second day.

I'm rather enjoying this now.


Day Final

Is that this Task GET!, Tasky? I'll need to know by today, so if needed I can write up enough new ones.

I realise that the day the year starts is incorrect, thereby misplacing the rest of the year. However, I reckon it suffices, and I'm generally not very good at the drawing Tasks.

I completed this during Cabin Fever, in order to keep me occupied.

My room for the 24 hours.

In that final picture you can see my days entertainment. While I was never bored, there were a few times when I felt eager to stretch my legs. I also took the time to write some of an essay due in two weeks time, utilising this time solitary wisely. That computer has no internet connection nor any games, so there was no contact with the outside world save for my mum. I enjoyed my day, I also rewatched The Land Before Time adn was pleased to see that it genuinely is brilliant, and not just nostalgic feelings.


Different Day
Banjo wrote:Different Day (Wednesday the 7th)

1. Got up the moment my alarm went off, always reset it for ten minutes later and go back to sleep.
2. Toast and Tea for breakfast. I usually have cereal and lots of cold milk, helps wake me up.
3. Brushed my teeth before I had a shower.
4. Made my bed before departing.
5. Wore bag over other shoulder.
6. Gave my mum a kiss on the cheek before leaping out of the car Starsky and Hutch style.
7. Did my morning GRcade catchup on a computer in uni (not the best place to stumble across the MCN thread)
8. Swapped the mouse over to my left hand. Didn't like it.
9. Didn't check for any porn updates (out of habit I'l check for updates,even if I have no intention of having a toss)
10. Went to see my nan at 11am, instead of 3pm like usual.
11. Had lunch. I skip lunch, am never hungry at that hour.
12. Did some course related research (watched Ossessione, interesting but far too long).
13. Watched said film downstairs ont eh big tv, as opposed to in my bedroom whilst lying in bed.
14. Had a gooseberry fool in the downstairs toilet.
15. Went for a walk in a direction different to my usual path.
16. Didn't ask around to see if anyone was going out (it's a given that wednesday is a night for drinking, I thought not tonight)
17. Changed into pyjamas instead of dressing gown.
18. Didn't put on a familiar film for comfort later in the evening, instead watched Generation Kill.
19. Didn't go down to use the computer after my dad had gone to bed.
20. Had a coffee. Wish I hadn't.

Cabin Fever
My cabin fever started at 12am this morning, it is now 1:37pm! Less than 12 hours to go. I may take my first trip into the kitchen in about an hour to obtain the ingredients for a rather hefty sandwich, providing the breads not mouldy again.

Cabin fever day complete! And with only 2 trips to the kitchen :]

Blog it

Failed, thought that saturday was actually friday, so I left it too late.


The Year Ahead

Made 5 three month calenders starting from this month all the way up until the end of 2010. They combine some of my favourite things, I especially like the first one as that combines my love for classic muscle cars, animation, and a clean environment.

I've printed out the first three month one, but unfortunately I've noticed that I'm running out of ink. I like it enough though that I might actually go to a professional printers and get it done on some nice glossy paper.

Wilson

Meet Post-it Pete, the friend of many faces...

Right now those faces are indifferent and surprised.

Cabin Fever

Not done, too much work to do this week to try something like that, unfortunately.


Different Day

Rightey wrote:I'm working on different day today, haven't completed it yet but I just want to make sure I don't forget anything...

1. Didn't go to the bathroom at night (very rare for me, I normally always make one trip at least).
2. Had a larger breakfast then normal.
3. Walked in backwards into the kitchen to get said breakfast.
4. Put my plate in the sink after I finished eating. (normally I just forget it there until I come back from school)
5. Brushed my teeth in my parents bathroom, instead of the one right next to my room.
6. Fixed my hair before washing my face (Order reversed from normal).
7. Used Internet Explorer instead of Fire Fox to type this.
8. Watched a different T.V. channel then I normally do, which meant seeing NASA crash that rocket into the moon, which was a pleasent surprise, I had no idea they were going to do that.

And that's it so far.


9. I wore my watch today to school, which made me realize it was off by about 20 minutes.
10. Used a token on the bus instead of my metropass (by accident I might add, I wanted to just wait for the bus at a different station but was in a rush as I was late, and so basically wasted $2.75)
11. Used my locker for the second time ever.
12. Sat in a different part of the class.
13. Wrote in pen instead of pencil.
14. While going home, I got off at a different subway station.
15. Went into a different game store then normal to ask if a game had come in.
16. Bought my comics from a different store then normal.
17. Went to Burger King to get lunch, I haven't had Burger King in years.
18. I took a different route when walking home.
19. Moon walked from the bathroom to the computer just now.
20. I licked my monitor just now as I really couldn't think of a twentieth thing I did today.

21. Damn it I just remembered while at school I kept track of everything on a list, I definitely do not normally make a list of everything I did different in a day.



Please confirm these Tasks Get Taskmaster.
