OMG I THINK MY BROTHER HAS THE SAME SENSE OF HUMOUR AS ME!!

this was from a while ago, and he told me this joke his friend said which he thought was really funny. well it's not really a joke. anyway. he has a friend with really small eyes, and someone once said to him 'omg why are you so smart?' and the guy was like 'i use less of my brain capacity for seeing, so i have more brain space to think'

GET IT?!?!?! can totally relate to the small eyes thing :L

and and and recently my brother told me this thing he saw on the Internet and it went like this:

steps on kellogg's cornflake on the floor. gets labelled a serial killer.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA we spent a while laughing about it. well. yeah. i have a weird sense of humour.

27/04/2012

My brother is throwing another tantrum in the living room by slamming things and screaming and stomping because my mum told him to get off the computer.

First blog post in a while :) what a great start ...

30/11/2011

i dont actually remember the exact date for this so i'm just gonna average the current date and the date of my last post lol :D

okay. so we're watching our asian drama during dinner. and even after dinner we continue watching the episode. so my mum and i are watching while jason's playing on my ipod cause he doesnt watch asian dramas with us anymore.

finally, we finish the episode. so i'm about to walk into my room but i realise that i havent fed my goldfish for the day! (i usually feed them dinner time) so i get the fish food out to feed them. then i begin to since sing Moves Like Jagger. and i was up to the bit where i'm mooing musically when my mum and my brother begin to burst out laughing. so i walk up to them and go HEY THAT'S HOW THE SONG GOES! and they keep on laughing. so i laugh with them. thinking that they were laughing at me.

so yeah, it was awkward. because it turns out they weren't laughing at me at all. isn't that awkward? when you think people near you who are laughing are laughing because of something you did so you start talking to them about it but then they tell you that they weren't laughing about that? yeah. that.

turns out that my mum had just given my brother one of those dried plums to eat (those really sour asian snacks):

it looks weird in this photo ... but i hope you guys know what i'm talking about ...

well apparently it was so sour my brother made that cliche face hollowing eyes twitching sour face. except his eyelids also flipped. it was so sour his eyelids flipped by themselves.

and i thought my mooing was funny!

25/11/2011

So I was using my brother's computer trying to make something for my kris kringle ... and hehe I took AGES. cause I suck at computers and even now the end product is ... yuk. But it's the intention that counts right? >.>

Well I finally finished! My brother was playing on my ipod (it's as if the ipod is his after I refused to but a password on it since it stuffed up last time ...) check out my blog for that story with the music so loud the neighbours would've heard it. So I shouted "I'm turning the computer off now!" I usually just wait a few seconds and if they don't reply I assume that they're okay with it ... but due to recent complaints I waited for a response.

Then HE SHOUTED "YUP" and then I turned the comp off ... so I was all like cool. THEN HE CHUCKS MY IPOD ON THE COFFEE TABLE AND STARTS STOMPING AND TELLS MUM THAT HE WAS WAITING FOR THE COMPUTER FOR HOURS AND NOW I HAD TURNED IT OFF! obviously he does the whole whip earphones around, slam into seat, bang hand on table, whole typical tv 'frustrated' face. so I was like what the hell I asked you and you said that it was fine but then he snapped back with NO I DIDN'T I WOULD KNOW IF I SAID.

Me: (that emoticon that Katherine uses) sheesh it's not my fault if you unconsciously answer my questions!

Jason: I'M NOT UNCONSCIOUS! (Fully shouting) I know that I didn't say anything!

Me: but I knew you said something! Who's problem is it that you turned the ipod so loud you didn't know you talked!

And it goes on. I know what I said didn't make sense but that's cause I can't come up with good comebacks and I didn't want to appear to lose to my brother ...

But then while I'm walking in he does the whole muttering thing saying "I'm never gonna let you use my computer again ... lalalalalaa" and I get that whole I-want-to-slap-your-face feeling that most older siblings understand ... sigh. He's so annoying at times.

Oh and I forgot to mention I apparently closed a file that was unsaved :/ but I don't recall there being an open window (my paranoia about closing all Windows before shutting down the computer tells me so) and anyway, the moment he turned in the comp he just began to watch yugioh so I doubt there was anything important anyway :)

06/11/2011

i really need to post the yugioh LCGX post but i cant be bothered editing the video and finding a way to put it here (cause the file's ginormous) yet ... so im sorry about that :( probably next weekend ...

walking out of my room and into the living room, i caught my brother staring intently into his computer screen. i immediately began to draw closer, eager to see what he was doing.

the screen was blank. it was black, but it emitted a soft glow which meant the monitor wasn't off. perplexed, i turned around and asked jason what he was looking at ...

and at that exact moment the monitor flicked to his favourite game - powder toy. turns out it was just loading.

so ... several hours later i casually strolled out again. mocking myself, i decided to see what he was doing on his computer this time. i took a double take. why? probably cause he had this image almost fullscreen-size splattered across his monitor ...

those are his eyes on a photo he took of his rubber
he calls it 'Annoying Orange - Jason Version'

you know ... the Annoying Orange on youtube?

02/10/2011

it has been quite a while since i've blogged due to exams and a whole lot of activities lately (my excuse for being lazy) ...

my dad's still sleeping so i was going to use my brother's computer to blog a bit. so i turned on his nice Windows 7 computer (compared to my sad Windows XP one - but i still like it better ohohoho) and waited (because he decided to install every program he sees and etc.)

and so i opened blogspot.com and weirdly it redirected me to blogger.com (it's weird cause i think jenmonster.blogger.com doesnt work but jenmonster.blogspot.com does. yet the logo thing says blogger. i'm so confused.) and then when it loaded it said redirecting ... and then BOOM IT SHOWED A PAGE.

why did i write that in capitals? CAUSE SOMEONE HAD ALREADY LOGGED IN LIKE MY BROTHER and guess what his username was?

JaceMonster. I KNOW RIGHT. sound familiar to you? yeah, maybe cause his name is Jason and my username is jenmonster? does he not know the difficulties to overcome in finding a username? (i seriously have no idea how to come up with one ... experience after having HanaKimiAddict as my crunchyroll account and stuff since year 6 haha) i also dont really suit cuty-pie-jennifer or something like cupcakessss. hence i had to go searching for those username-generators and i typed in my name and it gave me like a page long list of things. and i was like hm .. reading until JENMONSTER came up near the end and i was getting tired and i was just like FINE.

:) yeah. he's a copycat. i better hope he keeps himself signed on and checking to make sure he isnt following this blog :)

the screen that blew my socks off

omg i can hear my bro getting up so i better leave this page soon :)

21/08/2011

the day before i made my brother pinky promise me that he'd finish his speech and his contract task by saturday. cause if he did i'd let him play on the computer as long as he kept his promise - proving that he could still finish his word despite playing games.

BUT IT WAS SUNDAY NIGHT, 11:SOMETHING AND HE WAS RUSHING HIS SPEECH. (it was about chimpanzees taking over the world and that he believed it would be possible - yeah, it was a free topic speech this week).

so when he was walking into my room i did that whole poof chest out i-am-really-not-bulliable pose and that whole pointing at his chest thing. like the bully in these:

yeah, all it took was a google image search of 'bullying'
it's an overrated bullying pose.

and so he walked back and walked into the walk behind him. and hit his head. so he said ow. but nicely, like how you say ow when someone pokes your back at school but then forget about it. and i was like 'i thought you said you'd finish your speech by saturday?!' and then that menacing glare ... a bit like this:

and then proceeded to walk into my bedroom to set my alarm clock for tomorrow. i was lying on my bed with my legs dangling when ...

OOMPH! yeah, my brother kicked the soles of my foot. like i was wearing slippers with hard soles (so it must have hurt for him too?) and he kicked me, sending my foot flying ...

into the air. no, not across the room :P

well yeah. it hurt. but not too much. just a spasm of pain like when you twist your ankle, nothing more. so i pretended nothing happened (cause that's what i always do - but joanna says dont do that :( im sorry, i forgot. its my default action) and my mum was like :D jason why you do that for?! and jason goes 'she hit my head omg AND IT HURTS LIKE HELL!!!! in that irritated, angry, exasperated tone that is so annoying.

and then he walks into my room. i prepare to hear my lamp fall, my chair to be overturned, my desk to be broken ... something.

and then i heard him turn on the computer.

and then some shredding.

me: ... is that my maths homework? no ... they're mainly sheets. it was the ripping sound of print paper, not sheets. and i couldnt figure out what it was. so i went into my room to get my clothes to shower. i didnt even try figure out what he ripped cause:

1. i had to try and look like i didnt care (mistake 2, i know)
2. even if i tried, i wouldnt find it. i wasnt wearing my glasses.

and ... later ... i found out what it was. cause i assumed he shoved the bits into my bin, and he did. it wasnt anything awesome, just a piece of paper i hung over my computer to try and be organised. the day i decide to be organised, the day my organised to do list gets shredded.

yargh. im gonna go check my sharemarket game now :)

the ebay bid.

my brother had been waiting for it for the whole day ... glancing at the clock every so often. the yugioh card he was interested in would sell to its highest bidder a little past 9.

it was 9. we watched as the count down kept counting ... 5 minutes .... 4 minutes .......

me: why dont you bid?
jason: im gonna bid in the last 10 seconds so then no one has time to outbid me :D
me: but what if you actually have to fill in something afterwards? and then you run out of time?
jason: hmmmm yeah okay i'll bid now

turns out that after you press place bid you do actually have to confirm it and enter the value, etc. so we were lucky we tried it out once.

at this stage we had just put in a $1.75 bid. we kept waiting. 3 minutes .....

then, suddenly, someone placed a bid on top of us!!!!! at $2!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 more minutes to go ......

we were all hassled. dad and mum were crouching behind my brother, curious with what the commotion was about. i was kneeling beside my brother.

dad: someone outbid you!! quick, put in another one! $2.50, go $2.50!!!
me: OMG HURRY UP! OTHERWISE HE'LL GET IT! JUST SHOVE IN ANOTHER BID!
jason: OMG WHAT OKAY WHAT DO I BID? WAIT I CAN BID $2.25!

then he bid $2.25. for the next 1 and a half minutes nothing happened. in relative silence, all four of us were staring at the computer screen, waiting for something to flicker. i could sense my brother's excitement .... the card was his to keep! he had been long awaiting this card and needed it to make his deck stronger! almost there!

me: why dont you put $2.75 in the box. so if they really bid they're gonna go for $2.50 and we dont have to waste time typing out the next bid.
bro: yeah .... okay. that's a good idea.

then, with 10 seconds to go, i was the one who spotted the minor movement on the top corner of the window. the words 'you are the highest bidder', set onto a blue/green background had transformed into the words 'you have been outbid'

me (screaming): YOU'VE JUST BEEN OUTBID!! QUICK, PRESS BID! PRESS BID!
jason (presses bid): OMG WHY ISNT ANYTHING HAPPENING!!! OMG! (keeps clicking)

the screen changes to the confirmation screen. we click confirm ........ BUT IT BOUNCES BACK SAYING THAT $2.75 IS NOT A VALID BID! THE NEXT BID IS $3 MINIMUM! it redirects back to the item page. 3 more seconds to go. we're all screaming and my mum and dad are saying 'quick!' in canto over and over again while i'm firing directions and jason struggles to work the keyboard.

pressing bid again, the second of loading of the confirmation screen is agony. pressing confirm ..... all is silent. we are all anticipating the result .....

and the new window says, with red text, that the item had been taken off after its time period.

my brother: :( ................ what?! that's not fair :(
me: awwwwwww
dad and mum (canto): did you get it?
bro: the guy got in with 3 seconds to go!

then my dad goes onto a whole explanation regarding why that was a good try. because now we are experienced, we are equipped with the knowledge for our next ebay battle. you get the gist of what he's saying ...

so basically the guy on the other end waited up to the last few seconds to bid, so that even if we saw it we might not be able to bid on top of him in time. as an extra precaution, he sacrificed an extra 25c to place a bid of $2.75 instead of the next minimum bid of $2.50 ... just in case we had prepared ourselves to quickly overbid him. it worked.

BUT IT WAS A FUN EXPERIENCE OMG. im trying to imagine what it would look like on webcam ... two adults and two kids clustered around a computer jumping up and down urging jason to bid, holding our breaths until we found out that we had been outbidded. it was very enjoyable indeed :P

oh and in case this confused you: you have to go up by at least 25c with each bid

money figures may not be 100% correct, but i tried to remember as accurately as possible :)

06/05/2011

yesh :) sad how i forgot most of the details. well, there was a day when the dinner atmosphere was awkward. again. but it was cause of my brother ... hm. dont remember why? this is why i hate it when i leave something to blog later cause i never remember it.

WAIT I THINK I REMEMBER IT. okay one of our chairs are starting to break so my mum and dad blamed jason for it since he's the one who always swings on the chairs and sits on it back to front, leans on the back, etc. and the next thing i remember is him shouting 'YOU ALWAYS BLAME ME' and then he started crying and stomped away.

sorry but this blog post may not be 100% genuine in that i might have meshed some events together due to short term memory. the next time i told him to stop procrastinating cause i noticed that he had moved a lot of stuff around on his desktop, changed his theme, etc. then he did that muttering thing and got angry. then that thing where you slam doors, deliberately do everything a tad more violently. like slamming books, slamming drawers, etc. it's annoying. and some time or another, i heard a riot inside the bathroom, only to enter it after him and find his toothbrush bent at a 90 degree angle. literally:

and just then? shortly after i arrived home, my mum discreetly told me that before i came home there was another session. my mum told jason to stop playing games or something, and somehow that led to my brother taking out the mother's day present he bought her and cutting it in front of her. yes, CUTTING IT. (keep in mind this is a secondary account). it was only yesterday when he showed me the soft toy and beauty set he had gotten her. i caught a glimpse of the toy under his desk a few hours ago.

i didn't see him cutting it, and he's perfectly fine all other times. i've just been posting about extremities :( i'll post more unbiaswise next time :)
