... for making new straight male friends. It's rather an unusual thing for me, my friends being mostly female or gay (though, oddly, not often both), but already there've been two this week. And Elmo Chris was even being nice to me today; it's not that he's mean, just that I'm easily ignored in more-than-one-on-ones.
Today, two big things.
One, I met Meg's Ex Boy. He's Cyn's Education partner for both presentation and the research project, and they met to work on it while I was with Cyn and Peter and Matt and Chris for lunch. He's a pretty nice guy, and he's apparently friends with Elmo Chris too. I didn't realise they were on such silent terms after their break up though; they don't talk at all, which isn't really uncommon, but what I've heard from Meg just made it sound as if they were over, not avoiding each other.
Oh well. Thanks to me, he's going to help us with our research project. How awesome am I?! :P
Two, I GOT MY LAPTOP BACK!!!! No more leeching! No more leech-related guilt! Proper access to things!! WOOOOOT XD However, I think I kind of screwed things up when I put my hard drive in my brother's laptop, because there were problems with drivers for the screen. It thought the native screen was "new hardware", and couldn't find the video/graphics/display driver that makes everything look proper-like. I've had to download a new driver for it, and it's a beta, but it seems to be working fine for the moment, so I'm happy with it.
In other news, I think I brought up Red Flags in the music department with how I got a hold of Inner World because, first week back, we're having someone come in and tell us all about Copyrights. Oh well, it was my "very illegal" method (in Dr Hindson's own words), or paying for it with a credit I don't own. The library didn't have a copy of it, Dr Hindson needed us to provide it, and the only copy that I could find via USYD was at the Con, but on loan 'til early October. So really, it's their fault, not mine.
And, yes, my Music presentation was today.
And, yes, my Education presentation is tomorrow.
And, no, neither are/were very well prepared. No focus this week. Damn repair people being slow and unable to do simple maths. *grumbles* They overcharged me, and quite obviously, but I didn't see the invoice when my dad picked it up for me this morning - I was at uni.
Still clueless about Peter. Must remember to talk to Cyn about this. And any ideas/suggestions/prompts are welcome.
:D
