Day 25 - Search Your Garden For Snakes

It was dark, cold and scary. We didn't find any snakes. So overall, it was a pretty wasted half hour. But we got a video out of it! 

If you think we could have found snakes, ask yourself this question. Do you often find snakes in the north east of England? Answered it? Exactly. 

Day 24 - Re-Record Your Answerphone Message

Answerphone messages are over-rated in my opinion, but yesterdays task made my phone think I was going to use it more, so I wasn't going to skimp out on this task (I hate it when phones cry). So here we are, me re-recording my answerphone message.

If your confused, it's sped up because it took so bloody long to get to the point where I could re-record it....

Day 23: Call Friends Beginning With The Letter "A"

Oh dear, this task was a rather tricky one. For starters, both us don't have many friends and only one of us has a working mobile phone. Still we tried and failed... Dismally.

Day 22 - Catch A Fly (Then Let It Go)

Were back baby! Tell a friend! Were back and in business!

In fact, not only are we back but were better than before! We have a fantastic new camera that will never ever break (fingers crossed) and it's easier to transfer to the computer! 

So today we celebrated coming back by making this terrible video. Enjoy!

Day 17 - Apologise

Due to sickness, camera problems and simply being too busy (and a Major lack of communication), we were unable to update Waste This Year beyond last Friday's blog post. But worry not! For we shall be returning next Monday with more videos than you can shake a stick at!

You see, we have just acquired the correct cables allowing us to now use Liam's super duper awesome camera!

So stay tuned, and thanks for your continuous support!

Day 12 - Play Chess Against Yourself

First of all, we would like to say that this image shows niether of us of anyone we know yet because of an unfortunate lack of an image due to an unfortunate lack of energy on the part of Liam who didn't supply a photo due to him not being here... what do you want from me?!? Me to do one?!? Balls to that I have slightly better things to do... if your that desperate make you own god damn photo!

Anyway, thats what it would have looked like if I had proof but with more hair and a slightly less pervy smile but beggars can't be chooses and all that jazz... God bless Google images is all I'm saying.

Day 11 - Throw Some Dice

Look at those throwing skills! If you ever need a lucky throw, just call Ryan Dewart!

Day 10 - Chew Every Mouthful Ten Times

This picture was taken of me when I was least expecting it. You can rest assured however that we DID chew every mouthful ten times.

Today Obama won by a landslide vote in the polls and although were both British, we would like to say well done. We were supporting him from the very beginning. So congrats Obama, and as seem as though your reading the blog, thanks a lot!

Day 9 - Collect Stamps This Day Only

Ahhh stamps. Those cheeky little squares of sticky paper that let you... send... letters.

OK, so were not massive fans of the things, but we obeyed our masters. And here's what happened. Liam got obsessed and went totally over the top and Ryan resisted his urges and kinda didn't try...

Day 8 - Study The Back Of Cereal Packs

We discovered something new from this task. That the backs of Special K and Alpen make us angry. Very angry. So angry in fact, that Ryan literally had to raise his fist, shake it and shout "Damn you Kellogg's! I'm not learning anything for this at all, it's just an advert!" 

Day 7 - Walk Around The Block

Look! We got a camera! A one that records video! Hoorah! It doesn't mean videos everyday but you know. We got another one!

Today's was rather boring, walk around the block. We did actually walk around the block. Honest we did! Can't you tell? It's a small block but we walked round it!

Day 6 - Research Your Family Tree

(Left Click on the Image to view larger)

Research your Family tree.... How boring! The last few tasks have bored us, and with a lack of recording equipment we've had to resort to pictures. So to compensate, here's a family tree of "Epic" proportions. Basically Ryan scribbled it down. We do wish that this was true of course. 

Oh we have a video for you tomorrow, we managed to borrow a camera to do a quick one. Watch this space! Well not this one, because it's a monitor. You may be blinded. 

Day 5 - Replenish Your Stock of Bookmarks

Right, Day 5 and its another 'exciting' one, replenish your stock of bookmarks. Its in the title really isn't it, grab thin objects and put them in any publication. Not much else to put really. Its been a slow day. 

Also it feels like today is important but none of us can quite place a finger on it, dunno why, just feels like a day when something happens. 

That's it! The something important.... today.... the 31st October! Its the day the Mirrors Edge demos released, HURRAH!

Day 4 - Change Your Pillowcase

OK, a rather pointless task today so we did it early to get it out the way (and to ensure that our Beds looked spiffing in the early morning sunlight!). 

BEFORE:

AFTER:

And there we go! 0-Gay in 3.45 seconds! Our bed looks delightful, fresh and rather feminine! All thanks to the Benrick bible! Might have a pit of a problem with "Get Laid" part of the book though... Oh well!

Fortunately it was our camera mans bed, and he doesn't know about it yet. Technically we changed one of the pillowcases on our collective beds so it counts yea? 

Day 3 - Recalibrate Your Hourglass

To be completely honest with you, we were rather stumped by this one. We don't exactly know how to calibrate an hourglass, and for some reason this task hinted that it had already been calibrated previously. 

Still, we tried and hopefully got somewhere. To be honest it was early this morning and we were sleepy, but we did it anyway. (Luckily we both survived yesterdays task even though Liam was convinced that his life was about to end in a sugary mess).

Tomorrows task won't be a video unfortunately (we were naughty and looked ahead), and to be honest it didn't need a video. Also our video camera broke today. Hooray for Sony Quality! 

Day 2 - Do Drugs

Day two, and our task was a rather debatable one. Do Drugs. Now we weren't actually going to smoke the ganja, so instead we sniffed the sherbet. Because were hardcore like that.

Previous to this video, we had already established that sniffing things (like mud) can be painful, and therefore took no precautions whatsoever to ensure we got the lulz. We did, we hope. Well we laughed. Afterwards of course. Although Ryan still has a blinding headache and Liam is blind in his right eye, whether that's because of the sherbet or the wild raccoon attack we're not sure.

Day 1 - Create A Blog

Right, here we go, Day 1 on our truly epic quest to waste one whole year of our lives. But then where are my manners, we haven't introduced ourselves yet so, first things first, lets roar ahead with the names and so on.

The 'famous' blogger Liam Richardson in the foreground with the confused expression stretched across his masculine face. The other is the completely gorgeous Ryan Dewart with his amazing comic streak and light, bubbly personality (no prizes for guessing who wrote this passage).

Next on the agenda is the explanation as to why this post and this blog exsist and like stated before its simply for you, the public, most likely bored school students, to witness the sectacular waste of one year of our lives simply by following a easy-to-use list from the book 'Lose Weight! Get Laid! Find God!' by the wonderful Benrick, which is the year by year guide of how to live your life so if you own the book or have access to it then please feel free to run along side us as we go or even jump in half way through. 

That's pretty much it. Please subscribe or follow us through Blogspot, and check every day for videos and images as we waste our life!
