Personally, I Have Moved On…

I can now be found over at Nelliebolical. I have something pretty nifty in mind for this place and I will get on to it as soon as I’ve finished my lab report, and possibly every other piece of assessment I have due this semester.

Also, I have changed a lot of profiles to match the new website. I can now be found as nelliebolical at Tumblr, LiveJournal, Last.fm, Formspring as well as Facebook and Twitter (which I just renamed, so you may already have me added on those two already.)

Dr. McFail & The Information Sheets

So, it took three weeks, but I finally got some information from my hack of an ex-doctor about what showed up in my blood test. I have slightly high cholesterol, which is to be expected being that I CAN’T EXERCISE. But I also apparently have gout, or at least the high levels of uric acid in my pee to suggest I have gout. Never mind the fact that joint pain is the least of    [...] Read more »

Uni & ME Drama… FML?

I’m having a really hard time at the moment. The fifth week of the semester is about to begin, but I have not been in reasonable, functional health since the semester started. I made the decision to just keep up with lectures at home via the online classroom because getting to and from campus would just take it out of me, but one of my classes requires a minimum of four two-hour visits to    [...] Read more »

Man’s Best Friend? This Woman Loves Them Too!

I love dogs. The single most worst thing about moving out of home was leaving the family dog behind and the severe lack of pet-friendly landlords around this area. I was born into a family with a dog. He was a German Shepherd named Boz, and it was his self-appointed job to protect me. I’ve been told that he would lay beside my crib while I slept, and run off to get a parent    [...] Read more »

How To Automatically Lose An Argument

The following blog entry is entirely hypocritical, because I have done all of these things in the past and I’m likely to do them all again, despite being obviously more aware of them. But hey, I’ve never claimed not to be a hypocrite!

Say ‘I have being doing something X amount of years longer than you.’
Variation of this: I am X amount of years older than you.
The entire point of the internet, aside from porn,    [...] Read more »

The Inevitable Return of the Great White Nellie

It seems that I enjoy making things difficult for myself. When I decided to merge my sites back together, I wasn’t intending on making a new layout that also happened to be the MOST FIDDLY THING ON THE PLANET. I don’t know what possessed me to work with conditional tags for categories when I failed so miserably the last time I tried it. I succeeded this time, but it was no easy feat.

Obviously, I    [...] Read more »

8 Myths Surrounding Psychology

Due to my habit of deleting databases, this entry was written well before the date suggests. It is one of a number of entries I have reposted here to keep receiving feedback on… or because I just liked the entry so much.

As a psychology student, I often get asked if I can read minds (which I can’t) or whether I can fix someone’s problem within minutes of talking to them (which I can’t). Most    [...] Read more »

The Story Of My Godfather

Due to my habit of deleting databases, this entry was written well before the date suggests. It is one of a number of entries I have reposted here to keep receiving feedback on… or because I just liked the entry so much.

It was obvious from the very moment I was born that I was going to be brought up to believe that homosexuality was far from the sin I later learnt that many people    [...] Read more »
