h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Good Evening.

Once again I have neglected my journal, and I am feeling penitant... I promise to never knowingly ignore the journal for more than a month at a time... and no you can't quote me on that. Now that I'm back I feel an overwhelming urge to tell you all of the nothing much thats going on in my life right now. Aren't you lucky!

In between dodging my coursework and other such important responsibilities I have found time to read and practice the bass and mess around with swords (not real) and expand my musical tastes. But enough about me.... how about YOU. What kind of person actually visits my page and why... please feel free to leave a message after the tone.

Hi... my name's Tone... *LEAVE MESSAGE RIGHT HERE*

Um... hello Tone. How come you always plague my life of call-making?!

Don't...t...t you know b...b...by now that an...n...nswer phon...n...nes make me st...t...tutter!

Oh, you're not the tone I usually get, ok then, that's fine!

Hello and good day to you HP! And Tone, sorry I won't forget you. It's been too long! What old places of the guide can we dig about in, you know, stir up the dust 'Addams family' style (should that be Douglas Adams's family!?! ).

What's been happening recently?
I'm Deputy Head girl and House Captain now. You can call me 'deputy' or 'captain'. Whichever you prefer! Or even IE if you'd rather! . Reply soon,

Captain Deputy IE sir!

I'm good, though graphics plagues my sad and meagre existence. I have a wodge of work to do and very little motivation to do it...*sigh*.. such is life. Its not all bad news. The band (working name 'Superband' until someone kills Eve, the vocalist) are going well. We're now a talentless four-piece instead of a talentless three-piece. We're writing songs (didn't mean it about the lack of talent, they good ) and other such stuff. Other than that life is boring and uneventful... Our YE company failed royally.. I think about five people out of twenty five will pass the exam... at least I hope so, because I'm not in that five.

Whats happenin with you sir?

Graphics! Art! Geography! Computing! Too much work! Don't they realise I have a life... ok, well, I don't, but that's not the point. I should have, but I can't because of the workload they're giving me!!!

Joy!!! Other than that, just turned 17. Going to London today. Tired. Want to go back to bed. I'm fine really.

>

I live in London! isn't that just the funniest coincidence....

GRAPHICS IS THE BANE OF MY ENTIRE EXISTENCE!

nuff said about that... I think

Happy being 17

I went to see Starlight Express and I have had the soundtrack on non-stop for the last two days. Listening to it now too...

Oops: know all the words. Even know all the mistakes: which is veryveryvery sad!!!

Yep, graphics sucks at the moment. And guess what I'm looking at doing at university... Design!!! What a pratt am I!!!
What are you doing for your major project?

>

P.S. Are you going to start up the Evil Genii (A433162) Page. I miss that RPG. We could probably make a better go of it this time, maybe not let it get quite as off track as it did last time...?

>

I saw Starlight Express! I was about 12 though... I can remember one line if I try.... Starlight Express, answer me yes.... see, there it is, probably wrong anyway

I'm designing an arena to go inside the millennium dome, I've got quite a bit to do. about 20 pages... in two days... wish me luck

I'm up for restarting the evil Genii page soon too

good luck

Well done! That's right. Except there's a please in there too, otherwise: quite right!

Wow! Did you get to choose? We're doing... guess what... don't hold your breath... it's so fascinating...
BICYCLE LIGHTS! Wow! How fun.
Grr. Boring subject if ever there was one!

I don't know how much I've got to do, but I'm guessing I won't actually do any...

Yes, let's start it back up! You'll have to go and update it though, because it comes up as needing to be moderated otherwise. I don't think we had any pictures did we? So it'll just be a case of checking it over!

>

I'll give it a look over

sorry about the length of time its taken me to reply... just lots to do not getting done

Well done on your YE stuff! We got Best Presentation and runner up for Best Product, for which I am quite pleased, but we didn't win *sniff*.. qué cera cera ... I may even do a guide entry for the design... I'm that proud , but it might actually be classed as advertising... so maybe not...

I sneakily found out I got a fairly low mark for my graphics coursework , can't blame anyone but me for that one, still have the exams to make up for it though! *fingers crossed over fingers crossed over fingers*

Which reminds me, physics practical tomorrow!! Lovely, shouldn't be too much of a chore, still quite nerve racking... so why am I so calm?? *feels slightly more nervous* ...this is better....

How are YOOOOU?! Tell me stuff!! I'm very bored...

[HP}=~~

Hello again. How are you? That's ok about not checking a while.

You read my YE thingy? Wow! Berkshire Area final tomorrow night... eek! Well done!!! And you said you were a bad company! Any pointers for our presentation [considering it's tommorow at 3pm, so any after that might not be very useful! ] as you won yours. We were 4th out of 9 for our pres.

I have no idea what I got for my c/w. I've got one of the only working bicycle lights though. Joy! Lucky me! My teacher told me that he didn't care if it didn't work, but I wasn't having that so I came home yesterday and with my Dad soldered all the wires etc! So now it works! Very very very little backup work though! Good luck in your exams. Got computing a week today! Yippee!!!

Now that it's a day after you said you had the physics practical, how did it go? Hope it was fine.

Stuff. Um... stuff? Stuff? Don't know. Can't think of stuff.

Ah, Evil Genii. Now, here's a decision: do you think we should;

1. Start it again in new forum etc: moderation of old conversations might take a while (congrats on being the first person I saw to have a conversation from ages back reinstalled on your homepage), they got a little off track, I was never on and so 3 people didn't know who Insane Endeavour was even though the group they belonged to was Insane Endeavour's Insane Endeavourers or whatever.
2. Wait for old conversations or continue from where we were: had a plot going [which is more than can be said for some RPGs], the old conversations will come back up anyway, people are already established in their roles.

Hmm. I don't know/quite remember where we were last time. Which do you think we should do. Maybe we could start another 'adventure' and consider what to do with it (merge it or discontinue it etc) when the moderated ones come up. Anyway, your choice, and I don't mind writing the first post again if you like.

Hmm, very long post here!!! Please don't get scared by the blabbering and not answer...!

Hi, I guess the sort of people who look around are just plain nosey.
I did`nt mean that really, i just like to read stuff that the common garden gnome type of persons have taken the time to write. Sorry to say this but you did`nt write enough to arouse the interest of a one legged flea. Come on now get a grip of yourself and entertain us with some of lifes mishaps that came your way.

Hello!

Ah, but I do always find it difficult to arouse the interest of one-legged fleas. I guess they just don't understand me.

There's not much more to be added to the above really! Not much happening in this corner of the world at the moment. Got more exams week after next, and that's about it!

What about you? How are you finding h2g2?

>

I don't have much to add to that... being in the same situation as IE... Much work to do and not much getting done.. the gnomes and the fleas baffle me..

Hardcore Procrastination Rocks!!!

(P.S. IE, if can get onto ICQ, do so NOW!!)

*Salutes*

Yes Sir.

*grins* I have several squadrons of similar IEs at my command.... and this red button *points to large flashing red button*... I'm not sure what it does... maybe I should find out.. *goes to press the red button*

[HP}=~~

Argh! Squadrons of me?!? That would be a scary sight!!!

Don't press that... [sound fades]

I have a big red button too, but I don't know where I left it!

Easy, I just switch on the computer, type in the url and there it is.

Ah! But what if you've lost the URL? ...
