My name is Rhys. I'm overzealous, impulsive, and convinced of my own greatness. I'm studying engineering at University but am somewhat addicted to web design too. I like to keep it as a secondary career option. My blog posts are usually pointless ponderings.

Red Bull

Red Bull, the creator of all the cool events and sponsor of all the cool athletes. Not to mention they created one fine beverage! Also, they have a cool logo.

Last Week

So last week was “study week” or for some people, a week off. I’ll didn’t study that much, I’ll admit, but did 2 assignments (90% of one, 50% of another and prepared my lab report). I am now up to par with my mathematics too which is pretty good.I had to whip out last years lecture notes though, I’m not sure what that says about my lecturer but I have learned the content nonetheless.

So here is what I got up to last week:

Today (Sunday)

Slept in til 1pm, did some Fluids work. Generally mucked about. Planned to go for a long ride but was too tired.

Saturday

Went for a few rides, almost learnt a 180 degree stoppie (stoppie, then rotate). Did the 2nd last question on my math assignment. Did some more website work. I have a few ideas brewing.

Friday

Did my maths assignment, except for one question and a section of another. Mucked about on my website.

Thursday

Did nothing the whole day I think. Went to Jono’s house for a while during the night

Wednesday

Hanged out at Danny and Jonesy’s new place. Fixed up my dirtbike some more. Now I need another spacer to make it complete. also watched Nitro Circus 3 with Director commentary (I didn’t know it had this til then). Also watched Rhys and Jonesy grimace while drinking their horribly unproportionate Long Island Ice Teas. Took Rhys home at the end of the night.

Tuesday

Did nothing. Probably should have studied but sometimes these things don’t happen.

Monday

Don’t think I did anything. Probably did some riding, I can’t really remember.

Sunday

Worked on my bike. Rewired it, got it to idle and installed the kill switch. Previously we had to kill it with the choke (how fitting). Stalling it might not work since there was no chain/tyre

So that was my week. Pretty boring huh? Well I am pretty brief in my descriptions but you’re somewhat right.

Made Up Words

I was thinking exactly that as I skip watched The Shawshank Redemption. There is a part where Red says “To me, that’s just a made up word”. Now that got me thinking, what is a made up word? Every word is a made up word. Who was the person that made up the word ‘the’ or ‘and’? There are no words that aren’t made up by my reasoning, just words that aren’t familiar. Just think, humans have been on this world for over 50,00 years. At one point or another, humans have said every possible word and made every possible sound.
