Oh dear, it seems it's been as many days as I am years old since my last post here... oh well. Here I am again, and better than ever!!

Well, certainly, much has happened since my last post, and ALL of it good, I must say.

I won't go through all of it, because, like I said, it's over two weeks of shit and merryness, so I will start with last Wednesday which was O-WEEK OH!FIVE Day 1 (of three).

For those of you unawares, I'm going to USYD this year, and they start their years off with an orientation week, like most Universities I know about. They call their's O-Week... dunno why - it isn't like it makes sense or anything. Anyway, [livejournal.com profile] hydeist_ and I decided to go together, and there was the possibility of meeting someone else, but that never happened. So, we got our free breakfast of the second best bacon and egg roll I've ever had and some weird square!bottle of juice that wasn't half bad, sat down under the big tent, and while we were waiting for me to finish (because I only decided to get mine after hydeist_ had already finished his), Tim from Big Brother got up on stage and introduced us to the day and the day to us. After that, hydeist_ and I went around to all the stalls for all of the clubs and societies they have to offer... and I MEAN all. I joined the Musical Society which is actually just a big ol' choir, and Techno Zen, which is... well, not even the stall runners really knew what it was, but I only joined for the Power!Socks, so it's all good. And, because I joined, so did hydeist_.

Once we'd gone through everything, via everywhere and past everyone at least three times, including the Buffy Society, we decided to enter the iPod Nano contest, received $30 of free iTunes downloads, went and explored some more, then left. We decided to go to the City for some well earnt shopping, which will be especially needed now that we are going to be studying everyday for the next 4 years in MUFTI!!!!arg. So we shopped for a while, and though I found the all-but perfect pair of jeans in terms of style, length and waist size, they were just slightly too snug for my liking, if you get what I mean *wink wink*. So I ended up only getting one shirt and a CD while hydeist_ was there. However, after he was called away, I went back to the Galleries Victoria to look at some things I'd seen and promised myself I'd go back to to look at. I found them again, and this time tried them on, but realised that they made me look even thinner than I am (and for those of you who have never seen me, I am a 178cm, 48kg 18 year old, and am often mistaken for a broom handle), so I didn't get them. But I consoled myself with a DVD that I'd been looking for for a while, and drowned my sorrows in one of those Brekky To GoGo smoothies from Boost Juice (and DAMN! Can you taste the muslie or what?)... then I went home =D

When I got home I found out that my sister had gotten her Ps that morning. YAY!NESS! (She only just had her first solo drive last night, picking me up from work.) Also, I got my timetable for Uni, and found out that it completely sucked arse. Seriously, my little pineapples, it was screwed to teh moooon!

On Thursday, I had work... YAY! =D

On Friday, I went to Uni to see if I could get the horribleness out of my stupid timetable, and, guess what I couldn't! Yay for me! [/death!sarcasm] Apparently, the computer that gave me my times just expected me to attend two separate lectures at once, on two separate days! Bah! Silly computer! Don't you know of my anti-grav abilities?!?! Blasphemer! So really, I had just stood in a queue for an hour for absolutely NOTHING!grrr. I actually ended up having to change my enrolement, swapping a class I only sort of wanted for a class I previously couldn't get, so it wasn't too bad. Plus, now I don't have a 5 hour break between 11am and 4pm, just a 3 hour between 11am and 3pm... oh well, it could be worse. On my way home from that boring and almost hellish experience (seeing as the hour in the queue had been spent outside in the blazing sun), I decided once again to go looking for some more consolling consolation music. I went in to Broadway's HMV and was just looking around, when one of the guys from the store turns to me and says "Hey!" in one an unusual way. I'm not sure if it was just one of those heaped-on friendlyness kind of greetings that we as sales assistants are made to make, or if it was an "Oh, hey! I know you!", or if it was of the "Helloooo. How YOU doin'?" kind. I responded with a nice "Hi" and he disappeared, so I went on looking...and just guess what I found... Panic! At The Disco!!!!!!w00tness!!!!! I think I will be eternally grateful for my good friend Kaz sending me one of their songs and technically being the one to get me hooked on them. So I bought it (even though it was way over priced at $36! But seeing as it was an import and Kaz told me it apparently wasn't in Australia yet, I thought I should hop on it and grab me some disc), and I was served by the same guy that said "Hey!" - again, he was reeaally nice to me, smiling the whole way through and stuff. He even asked me if I needed a bag, instead of just assuming like "they" usually do, so I thought to myself "Hmm, this guy is either world-health-conscious, or he is smart enough to realise I'm wearing a bag... either way, it's a good sign of intelligence and good nature". Once I had bought it, on my way out of the store, I noticed the DVD of Labyrinth for like $15 I think it was, and I had just been thinking about it "the other day" so I thought I had to get it. I went back and the guy was still there at the counter, but he wasn't looking ('uz he was serving someone else by then, and was looking at his computer screen) so some other guy served me. I was half expecting an "Oh hey, you're back pretty quickly" or something similar, but I guess he didn't see me. One the sale had gone through, the guy that served me shoved the DVD in a plastic bag and gave it to me EVEN THOUGH I WAS OBVIOUSLY WEARING A BAG ALREADY!!! and I wished the other guy had served me again, though now more for the world-health-consciousness side of the situation rather than the "oh hey, you're back quickly *insert much laughter here*" side. Then I went home... =D

Saturday I worked, as I did on Sunday.

Then, today, I had my first lecture at Uni! Yay. It was my music subject and its the only one I have on Mondays for first semester. It was pretty good, though I was there 30mins early and I was worried I was at the wrong place because the building was named incorrectly on my timetable (which I didn't know until I got there and I was all WTF?! where do I go now?). Fortunately for my wallet, nothing bad happened today, so I didn't need musical consolling, though I will need to get my textbooks tomorrow... and the lines are fucking HUGE!ness-and-a-half for both the Co-op Bookshop and teh Copy Room.
Bleh -________-

Oh well, tomorrow will be good, and I will be able to use my four hour break to stand in line for both my books and hydeist_'s (really, I'm just checking how much they will cost there, seeing as we will have a 25% discount if we join soon enough). Yay for too much spare time.

Oh, and I HAD MEXICAN FOR DINNER!!!YAY!!!!

Now, I think I'll leave you with the lyrics to one of my new favourite songs, called Lying Is The Best Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off:

Lying...

Is it still me that makes you sweat?
Am I who you think about in bed,
When your lights are dim and your hands are shaking
As you're sliding off your dress?
When I think of what you did,
And how I hope to God he was worth it
When the lights are dim and your heart is racing
As your fingers touch your skin.
I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck
Than any boy you'll ever meet, sweety you had me.
Girl I was it, look past the sweat.
A better love deserving of exchanging body heat
In the passenger seat.
No, no, no.
You know
It will
Always
Just be
Me.

Let's get these teen hearts beating faster, faster!
So testosterone boys, and harlequin girls,
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?
So testosterone boys, and harlequin girls,
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?

So I guess we're back to us.
So, Camera Man, swing the focus.
In case I lost my train of thought,
Where was it that we last left off?
Just pick up! Pick up!
Oh now I do recall, we were just getting to the part
Where the shock sets in and the stomach acid
Finds a new way to make you get sick
I hope you didn't expect to get all of the attention
Let's not get selfish, did you really think I'd let you kill this "chorus"?

Let's get these teen hearts beating faster, faster!
So testosterone boys, and harlequin girls,
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?
So testosterone boys, and harlequin girls,
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?

Dance to this beat.
Dance to this beat.
Dance to this beat!

Let's get these teen hearts beating faster, faster!
Let's get these teen hearts beating faster!

I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck
Than any boy you'll ever meet, sweety you had me.
Girl I was it, look past the sweat

No, no, no.
You know
It will
Always

Me.

Let's get these teen hearts beating faster faster

I was wondering when you were going to update this thing again..

Glad uni is going good so far...despite your craptastic schedule.


...and yay for Mexican for dinner!


...and I tried to download that song, but was sadly unsuccessful. Booo iTunes.

From: [identity profile] phrasemuffin.livejournal.com


Don't just download! BUY! BUY! I'm listening to it right now, and in my opinion, it is totally worth it.

And uni today was definitely a different story. I had a fucking 4 HOUR BREAK!!! in the middle of the day. I seriously considered seeing RENT by myself to fill in the time, but I wasn't sure how long it would go for and it started at 1 o'clock, and my next lecture was at 3. I seriously wished I had a) your number, and b) a phone that could sms you in America (I've tried it, and it doesn't work... though that could have just been my old crappy phone), because I wanted to ask... although, if I'd been able to call you, I probably would have skipped the movie and stayed talking to you because I was that bored! No one wants to talk to me and it is seriously depressing.
*is emo!dramatic*

From: [identity profile] yodallama.livejournal.com


Well I was trying to BUY it from iTunes, but they didn't HAVE it. =P

That 4 hour break sounds like it would suck majorly. That is why I only have 2 classes this semester, because I didn't want a 4 hour break in between classes. You wouldn't have been able to see Rent though in the time...it's like 2 hours and 40 minutes, so if it started at 1 you would miss your lecture at 3. And you most certainly can have my number, but I'll bet it would be expensive as hell to call me... it's 1-561-213-0328, but I'm not sure if that really helps anything, lol. I'm guessing sms is just text messaging...hmm...I don't know if that would work or not...wouldn't hurt to try it anyway...
And I'm sure EVERYONE secretly wants to talk to you! They are just afraid to because they are intimidated by your unsheathed awesomeness. Duuuhhh.

Why don't you just...go home during the 4 hour break? Then you can do things like get online homework, get online read, get online eat lunch, get online or watch tv. Or get online.

Beware - very long sentences ahead!


Well, see, I did the whole "I have to get my textbooks" thing for a "little" while first, and that screwed me majorly for trying to get home, as it takes about 30 mins by bus, and the bus doesn't come until about 20 past the hour. So, really, after teh abominable textbook queues, I didn't have time to go home - 2 hours just wasn't enough.

There are far too many digits in your cell number... well, one too many, but who's being dramatic here counting?

And today was much better for my social circles of Uni-ness. I met a girl (whose name I forgot! AHH! And she's the only one in my Education Seminar/Workshop group whose name I don't know, of the 11 or so that showed up, plus she's the only one I've spoken with [not just at or to], plus she's now my first official Uni friend!!!) and she's cool and we talked and tried using maps and mobiles to locate people and builidings, and I met her school friends (who we had to call to find 'cuz they weren't really where they said they were, but technically they were...) and now feel really alone on one hand because I don't have any school friends with me but she (and many others) does(do), but on the other hand I felt like they were being really friendlysome and inclusiveness and such, and the good out-weighed the bad. And when I told them I sing, they were all wanting me to sing for them right then and there... but I didn't because obviously I didn't want to scare them away with my awesome!ness talent... or something... yar =D


and yar - sms = text message... I just can't remember what it stands for :P

From: [identity profile] yodallama.livejournal.com

Re: Beware - very long sentences ahead!


Ohhh I see. Stupid text books. But on most other days you could go home if you wanted to..though if you have to wiat for the bus, and then it takes 30 minutes each way, it might be more worth it to find a nice bookstore or something near by you can just hang out at or something..

And my phone number only has too many numbers if your a crazy Australian. I think. Or something. If you call someone who isn't in your area code you have to dial 1, so thats what thats there for, then my area code is 561, and then the number itself is 213-0328...and I believe there is a country-code as well to call another country, though I'm not quite sure how one goes about doing that...hmm..

Very cool making a friend! See, you made a friend your second day. By next week you'll be so popular you'll have girls (...and maybe some guys) hanging all over you begging you to amaze and seduce them with your beautiful voice and mighty powers. I still haven't gotten that whole ..make-friends-at-school thing down yet. Yar.

Re: Beware - very long sentences ahead!


Yeah, but you have Sami. And you only have two classes this semester, and you don't seem to have huge periods of time between them which require you to choose between lonesomeness and friends.

That and you drive!

Or you could just get your Crazy American Arse Ass online and I can send it to you...

From: [identity profile] highlyeccentric.livejournal.com


so... my curiosity bugs me... why the talk about O-week Oh!Five when it's now 2006?

From: [identity profile] phrasemuffin.livejournal.com


Um... I'm not sure actually. I may have misread all the merchandise and letters I received, as well as the website's banner; I may have misremembered *insert above O-Week related items above*; I may have just had a brain spasm and just thought we were still in 2005, and completely disreguarded whatever the hell year those crazy university types think it is...

In any case, it's probably all my fault in one way or another, as it usually is.

*nods fervant-esque*

From: [identity profile] highlyeccentric.livejournal.com


the thing is, that's what they did call it in 05... so let's just say you were channelling the spirit of past Oweek conveners, or something.

From: [identity profile] phrasemuffin.livejournal.com


Well, I think I've channelled just about everyone I've ever met, so why not start with the people I haven't?

From: [identity profile] hydeist-.livejournal.com


Wow. I have completely missed this post.

More posts please.
