This week´s tasks are to make a tan tatoo, which I doubt I will succeed in doing, and to do the tasks on the benrik website.
Incidentally, my dear sister has found proof that I succeeded the task to worship unpopular gods greatly, as shown by this screenshot:
As of tomorrow I will be trying to commit one of the 7 deadly sins every day. Tomorrow is lust. Apparently I have to ogle an attractive member of the opposite sex. Nice…
The other task is to worship unpopular gods. I think it might be intended that I worship a few but I am too loyal for that. Instead, I have found a wicked goddess. Have a look:
Iðunn was, in Norse mythology, one of the goddesses. According to the Prose Edda she was the custodian of apples which allowed the Æsir to maintain their eternal youthfulness. She was the wife of Bragi, god of poetry.
As related in Haustlöng Iðunn was at one time abducted with her apples by the giant Þjazi, who used Loki as a stooge to lure Iðunn out of Ásgarðr. During her absence, the Æsir began to age without the rejuvenating qualities of her apples, prompting them to press Loki into the task of rescuing her. Borrowing Freyja’s falcon skin, he retrieved Iðunn from Þrymheimr, transforming her into the form of a nut for the flight back. Þjazi, displeased, pursued them in the form of an eagle, but was defeated by having his wings set alight by a bonfire created by the Æsir.
She has a wicked character in her name, she is the goddess of youth and I bet she’s proper hot. What more could you ask for?

UPDATE: I do still wish to worship Iðunn but I also like the look of Chimata-No-Kimi. He is a Japanese phallic god of crossroads, highways and footpaths. I live right next to a crossroads so I will be sure to pray before school tomorrow!
Ok a new week and 3 new tasks, even though we are a little late starting this week we will still be completing the tasks to our full ability. I am speaking for Callum as well as myself here as we are working through this book together. Last weeks tasks were: sell yourself on eBay, assess the evil in others, and lye pathologically.
This week’s are pretend your a doctor, insure your best feature, and plagiarism week: copy everything from others. As usual you’ll be the first ones to know what’s happening with these tasks.

I have completed another week of the diary. I explained my tasks here. I must confess that due to the lying pathologically task, I lied when saying that one task was to kill myself, when I blogged about the dolphin and finally about ending my blog.
Yes you can all rest safely knowing that my blog will be lasting a good deal longer.
And thus, the world is good. =)
I’m really sorry to have to say this, but I have just started college this week and I’m feeling a lot of pressure put on me by my school studies.
I have also got a job as a baker 5 evenings a week.
It is for these reasons that regretfully I have to stop blogging.
I’m really sorry but I can no longer find time to blog.
With any luck this will not be permanent, and I will be blogging again after my A Levels (in June 2008). Thanks for reading and please pop back within the next week as I will be making one final update.

What the hell!
I was walking home today, and everything was normal until I stepped foot onto my street.
Right in front of me (about 10 metres from my house) was a crowd of about twenty people surrounding something I couldn’t quite see.
I ran up to see what was going on and to my surprise saw a dophin lying on the road surrounded by water. A few metres up the road was a lorry with it’s back open, revealing a weird fish-tank like interior.
From what I heard from the people around me (who had apparently heard from the driver, who was on the phone at the time) the dolphin was being taken up to Edinburgh and near Bingham they had noticed a problem with the “door” to the tank and had been trying to find a place to stop when it had all come gushing out, dolphin and all.
I will post more when I know more. Unfortuately, the dolphin has died.
eBay has now removed my listing. Apparently my friendship and worldy advice doesn’t count as a product or servive.
Skank on me…
This week’s tasks are to sell yourself on eBay, to lie pathologically and to kill yourself.
I’m doing all of them.
Check out my wicked auction. For a very low price you could win it big!
I’m doing the This Diary Will Change Your Life with Callum. Basically each week there are some crazy tasks that you’re supposed to do. Check Callum’s blog for more info!
My task last week was to email a billionaire for money. Here is my email:
Hallo Ricky/Mr Gervais/Sir=)
I’ve been listening to your podcast since season 1 started. I know you’re a friendly and possibly wacky kind of guy so I thought you might understand my situation.
I’m currently reading a book called This Diary Will Change You’re Life from www.benrik.com. Basically each week it tells you something that you have to do. I got the diary late on so I need to catch up. One of them is to request for money from a billionaire. Now I know that you’re probably not a billionaire, (if you are congratulations!) but you seem like a crazy kind of guy so I thought you might like to give me a few quid to buy some dope or something. What do you think? If you like the sound of it (which you should!) just tell me and I’ll send you an invoice over PayPal. It will seriously be no effort at all. Honest.
Thanks for reading (if you have)
