Uni starts tomorrow. OMG. Dunno why, but I'm shitting myself.
Why?
Probably because my last experience at Uni was just damn awful.
Why?
Ok, I was just so miserable - not because I was doing crap in my studies, actually quite the contrary, I was doing way good. But moreso the social aspect of it all. I hate to say it, but I was a nigel. There, I said it. I fricken was.
For those of you not in Aussieland, a nigel is someone who flounders around about by themself. In other words, a loner. Sad but true.
Why? I have no fricken idea why.
I remember those days, eating at the cafeteria, by myself, waiting for the next lecture/tutorial. God those days were awful. Saying that though, I could honestly say that it's the only time in my life I was in such a socially inept situation.
High school was no problem, I was known. For goodness sakes I even got the "Boyz II Men award" in year 12 because everyone knew me as the singer HA!
Last two years in TAFE has been awesome, I've met some really cool people within those two years. I've been mixing and mingling with people out of that environment and it's been great.
It probably didn't help that last time I went to Uni, I was a fat shit with big hair and braces. I looked like a fatter male version of that 'Ugly Betty' chick, seriously it was pretty bad. I look at my student ID card back then and it looks like someone used a fish-eye lens and blew my head up with a ton of fat. I looked happy but, but that was only to hide all the pain I felt inside LOL HAHA
Well, I don't think it would be so bad this time around, I'll make sure that I be more pro active this time around. I think I'm more mature, more confident and more importantly, more damn sexier...
BWAHAHAHAHA damn, I kill myself sometimes...
Why?
Oh shoosh, you!

Say My Name, Bitch!
(and say it right while you're at it)
In my 24 years on this green earth of ours, I am still amazed by the amount of times people get my name wrong! The most common mistakes are:
'Jew-ahn'
Warren
Mark
Ryan
Wayne
'Jun' (as in "June")
'Jhaun'
Weirder mistakes are as follows:
'Why-Nah'
'Wyone'
'Meow' (Yes, that's right)
'Kwan'
'Kwami'
And the list goes on and on...
For fucks sake, people - it's JUAN. If you want a pronounciation lesson it's
Huan
Yes people, it's a Spanish J. Everytime I hear someone pronounce or read my name wrong I just think how not "in the know" these people are. How can someone not have seen/read/heard of people like Don Juan DeMarco, Juan Samaranch, Juan Carlos Ferrero or places like San Juan or TiJUANa. Even things like friggin mariJUANa have my name and yet people don't get it right.
One more time for those who haven't got it yet -
HUAN
Wasn't so hard, right?

A blog out of boredom...
Oh God. I am so bored.
I haven't got a car because my dad borrowed it so he can take his car in for some detailing. So he's using it for work, I'm stuck at home incredibly bored as for the next two days or so. I did not realise how boring being home alone can be. I can just feel time wasting away and I feel so incredibly shitty at the end of the day. Here's the breakdown:
- I was on the computer for a good four hours or so. Either checking out my myspace, watching episodes of Heroes and Idol, blogging (of course), blog hopping, forum posting, car researching and well um... watching erm... educational stuff LOL
- I ate five times today. I ate: muesli for brekkie, tuna for lunch, chinese pork buns for afternoon snack, pigged out on some ice cream about an hour later, and some fish for dinner.
- I realised I've gained a good kilo since Sept last year. Yes, I am a fat shit.
- I slept about a good 3 hours today. Had a strange dream. Dreamt that I was sitting at the back of a airplane and an explosion and consequent fire broke out in the rear of the plane and these tribal African people came out of the back and started doing a tribal dance around the plane, entertaining everyone while we were plunging to our deaths. Weird huh?
- I even put the karaoke machine on and sang such classics as Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman by Bryan Adams; End of the Road, On Bended Knee by Boyz II Men; Let's Stay Together by Al Green and an amazing rendition of Can't Help Falling in Love With You by Elvis. I gave the performance of my life, too bad no one was there to witness it. Damn.
- Played some Warioware on the Nintendo Wii. Really weird game, the guys who made it must have been on crack or something...
- Oh and just for the record I took a shower, brushed my teeth and did a poo. Actually, in the reverse order.
I guess it's the same deal tomorrow.
