[19/08/08] In which I discuss verbs.

I know, it sounds terribly boring. But here is a twitter update I just made.

'Verb' (verb) - to turn a noun into a verb, ie Google; "you Google it"

Because at school, if one is going to the tuckie (canteen), which reminds me I need to get another form for my testimonial, we say "are you tuckieing?" and if one is catching the bus, "I'm bussing". That's all I have to say. We get lazy, so we turn things into verbs - we 'verb' things.

I'm catching up with someone from primary school who I feel really bad about not keeping in touch with on Friday, so that's exciting, and I'm fucking terrified. There's not much else that's new at the moment.

There will be an Ice Age 3, which I'm sure is a joy to Em's dad. He loves the first one, and I have heard stories about him watching it more than one time in a day.

There's an ad on the radio for the Deakin Uni open day, which is this Sunday. I don't really want to go, as it's hard enough to find time to do homework in August, as everyone has about 500 SACs a week, but I should. Oh that's a funny story. The careers counsellor at my school is a family friend, and she tries to get everyone to go to Deakin. So at the funeral on Thursday, I was telling my cousins this, and they said "hey, isn't that *insert name here*?" and I was like, "yes, that would be her."

Rocky Horror Picture Show ad on the radio! I need to talk to Megan and Byron to see if they're still doing a group booking for that, and then tell Laura. I should give Laura her birthday present. It's only 2 and a half months late.

Oh, the Hot 30 Countdown is crap mostly. Last night the top song was by the Veronicas. Urgh. And they're doing this thing where they try to break world records. Last night the guy tried to get four different countries to hang up on him in 40 seconds and tonight the girl had to break up with her boyfriend in 20 seconds. This is a horrible show. I don't want to go into radio. Or at least host a show like the Hot 30 Countdown. Or Kyle and Jackie O. I would be fine working with Hamish and Andy.
