My stuff that I shipped over from Sydney FINALLY arrived! :) My beloved computer, clothes, books and shoes! ohhhhhh my shoes! Hehe, I’m very excited to have all my stuff back. I’m sitting here as we speak, wrapped up in a beautiful dressing gown that someone really close to me gave to me before I left. I had no space to pack it, so I had to have it shipped. I’m thankful it’s here now because it’s quite chilly at night, so it’s keeping me (and my Eeyore pyjamas) nice and warm. I didn’t really realise how much stuff I had, until I tried to fit it in a one bedroomed apartment. I have so little storage space left (this was the case even before my shippment arrived) that I have nowhere to put my books and DVDs (believe me, there’s a lot of them) and i have very little closet space (i have two shelves, which isn’t nearly enough, and the rest are racks.) which means that if I can’t fit all my clothing on hangers, i’ll need to go and get a small chest of drawers. Then I have the problem with space again, as I have very little space in the bedroom for one. I may have to get one of those fold-out storage racks that you hang in the closet. The canvas ones? You know what I mean. I’ll probably have to get a bookcase as well. Ugh, why didn’t I think of this before hand?
After a night of hacking away and murdering my throat, I decided to go to the doctor this morning. He doesn’t seem to think it’s a bacterial infection (unlike James’s) and so he prescribed me some nasal decongestant and a horrible tasting liquid for my throat. He also gave me a prescription for some Antibiotics to fill in a few days if i’m no better. I hope it doesn’t come to that though - Antibiotics are bad. Antibiotic resistant bacteria are even worse. :P Also, I don’t really want to be missing any more Uni. As it is, i’ve had to miss about 4 days in the past two weeks, and I certainly can’t afford to miss my laboratory sessions this week. Work is another problem too: I had to call in sick on Sunday because I could barely function (seriously, I sat on the couch staring at dark things all day because my head hurt so much.) I’m not keen on missing work because I don’t want to give my manager the impression that i’m unreliable…
Time for bed now, I think. Goodnight. :)
I decided to upload two new themes today because I got incredibly sick of the past theme. I’ll end up editing the colours eventually but right now i’m too damn sick to do so :(
Yeah, i’ll do a proper blog tomorrow
Saturday night was effing awesome! James, Vicki and I went and saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers whilst they were in town and tehy were incredible! :D They played a lot of stuff i’d not heard of, but it was still a lot of fun! :D As soon as James and I figure out why my torrents refuse to download, I’ll download the discography. It’s 400 odd songs, but hey, i have a 30GB iPod to fill up now.. Whats a Gig here and there?
I have been working sooo much lately. Good for: Money, Bad for: Test results. Yeah, I worked so much I had so little time to study and completely fucked up my Bio test yesterday. It’ll teach me that I need to organise my notes and study WAY before the test in future, because it was an effing hard exam. Thankfully, people I spoke to today in my lecture also found it hard (and I wasn’t the only one who had never even heard of a “restriction modification system” which one whole section was orientated on. I can’t help but wonder if the entire question will be ignored during the marking - I’m almost 100% certain that we haven’t even covered the question in our lectures and therefore shouldn’t be in a test. Oh well, we shall find out. I think I did relatively well in my Computer Science test though - Better than I was expecting, anyway.
So, I got my hair cut the other day! I have incredibly short hair now! I’m really happy with it and feel so much more confident at the moment because of it. Tell me what you think!

My skin has been shocking lately (Typical: I fix one thing i.e. my hair, and something else causes problems). I really need to find a skincare product which works and isn’t terribly expensive. I’m thinking of trying Proactiv because I’ve heard nothing but good reviews about it. Has anyone tried this product? If so, what did you think?
I still haven’t received my shipment that arrived from Sydney at the start of April. They haven’t called me to organise delivery and it’s not a matter of customs forms: I’ve sent them off. They’ll be getting a phone call on Thursday or Friday though. I miss my stuff! haha. I want my computer, my books and my clothes! Not to mention my precious shoes!
Mmm… Mid Semester Break. It’s so great to not worry about getting up in the morning. It’s so good to have time to myself and time to study at the same time! Although, I only have a week left, but still, It’s been great. I’ve been working quite a bit lately as well. I’ve earned about 300 dollars in the past few weeks! I have a heap of fun too - the other staff are really nice and quite entertaining. I have my first shift by myself on Saturday, so wish me luck!
Speaking of money, I spent my first lot of work money on an iPod. I’ve been contemplating getting one for quite a while now as my old mp3 has been slowly giving up the ghost. I gave in to temptation and went and bought one. It’s nice and shiny and the quality is surprisingly good. The only disappointment has been the earphones: I have really small ears and the headphones don’t fit well. I have a good pair of clip on headphones which i’ve been using and i’ve also purchased some earbud covers for my ipod which will hopefully solve the problem of the earphones not fitting well.
I finally got around to taking my prints that my dad bought me in Hawaii to get framed. I’ll have some lovely artwork hanging up in my apartment soon! I’m also thinking of taking some of my photography and getting it framed too, but we’ll see. I’m really looking forward to decorating my apartment so it reflects me, but it may take a while until I get a decent chance to do so.
Today one of James’s cows gave birth! Freaking crazy stuff, but the calf is so cute and small. It was standing a couple of hours after it was born. :) I’ll try and take some photos next time i’m at his house (I don’t have a camera on me right now.)
Time for me to go sit on my ass and watch television! :D
