Sharkghosts and their treasure

In first year of college, I did a class in Animal evolution and like diversity and stuff and one of the assignments we had to go to the zoo. I ended up doing the whole assignment on wikipedia, as all there was to it was like writing down and drawing some highlighted interesting parts of the animals, of which there are many. This meant instead of working in the zoo I could hang out with two guys from my class who had the same idea. This was the first time I'd been at the zoo as like, not a kid, and it really made me see how shit, as an idea, zoo's are. These guys basically live in a garden, and are put on show. People can definitely learn a lot from zoos, but the fact that I did everything in my assignment, which is everything I'd learn at the zoo anyway, from the internet kind of makes that redundant. Seeing animals in real life is cool, but living in a garden with people looking at you hanging out isn't.
That said, I went to the zoo on Sunday and had the most fucking exciting time ever. The day trip was Alice's idea, because on Sunday we were mots for a whoppin three months and thought we'd go look at inferiorly evolved specimen to reflect on our time together. I was a bit apprehensive at first, because of all the stuff outlined in the first paragraph, but I love Alice, and this was going to going to be a great big laugh.....only thing was, once we got there it started lashing violently. We were like well wrapped so we didn't die or anything but it was a bit of a downer. An almost immeadiate upper though, was when we got to the ticket box, and saw Ronan who was a boy I used to work with. After some quick chinwag, he gave us TWO FREE TICKETS!!!!! I thought it was really nice of him, and it's true what they say, that the best things in life come for free.
Somehow, the rain didn't seem to affect me at all. When I saw the little farm I started jumping up and down with excitement because I missed it last time and I want to look at the rabbits, which were totally fat. After looking at some birds and reptiles (There was a tarantula in the reptile house. Now I'm no zoologist, but Tarantulas are spiders and as much a reptile as I'm a Suit and tie. Bad form.) and elephants ,who actually came really close when I waved, we got some din dins. I definitely needed the rest, but Alice seemed ready to go home, mainly because it was wet out. I kind of understand not liking the rain and all, because I'm not a goth, but when there's like giraffes and Zebras and Oryxs less than a minutes walk away, going home seems kind of boring. I think after we ate we had the best fun anyway.
I saw a lioness lying in a box with glass in it and ran up for a closer look without realising she was in a fucking box, and she like darted up and I stopped like dead in my tracks because she was so scary. I walked up a bit closer and she just lay down looking fed up and I felt like an absolute dickhead for showing her that she wasn't scary. The big man gorilla was infact, very scary. Nearly all the animals were inside because of the rain, so they were like very close to the glass, and the gorilla basically had his face up to the glass which was terrifying. A baby orangutang eating lettuce was pretty cute. We went back to mine after and just hung out for a bit. It was the best three month anniversary I've ever had, and I'm sure the next three month anniversary will be three times the fuckin laugh.

I was having a bit of trouble sleeping that night which never happens, so I passed time by watching Stephen Fry interviews. I don't really know much about him, but I saw him on room 101 once before and I really like his hole thing he had going on. Here's the interview, it's like fifty minutes long though.

The interviewer makes me feel real uncomfortable though.
I watched a interview with him by that kind of camp guy from British sitcoms in the 60s and 70s or whenever the carry on series was going. It was so weird though, because Stephen is basically the exact same. Like he's 28 and hasn't changed a bit, all except for making a more eye contact and stuff. I think that's kind of stange, but maybe it happens in all people with a character like his. I really liked the long interview anyway, especially the first part.

I can't get interested in programmes for very long, as in when I start watching something like Ugly Betty or Skins or something I'd think it was great and was definitely going to watch every second ever broadcasted ever, but lose interest sometime through whatever series although up untill now I've watched all the skins episodes. It's kind of thick though. Anyway, lately, I've been mad for Miami ink. The main guy, Ami, seems like the coolest lad on telly.

College in a week. Apart from getting my results from last year, it's going to be really nice. I'm going to try keep a consitant mood, and gain inspiration from things like interviews with smart people and music videos like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmOwuwOSA-c

I'm ready for bed now, but I enjoyed this entry, and I hope you did as well.
