First week at my new uni is over. It went so fast and yet somehow it felt like I’ve been there for a long time. Anyway, piled with heaps of assignments is just great. But I suppose it was expected. I still have Friday off, though it’d probably be spent in the library or studio soon. I really should’ve gone today… but it’s the first week and besides I needed to go shopping anyway.

Things are so much different here since they have so MUCH more prac. I’m still considering whether that’s a good thing or not. It requires much more time and creativity and I go so blank. It is a bit more enjoyable and more free but it’s hard to think of something myself that I’d actually fully like. The tutors aren’t that much of a help.

Lol I can’t believe I’m doing the same history stuff again. I so will not fail this year!!! I will not fail History. I will not fail history. In fact, my goal is to ace it! The lecturer is a little bit better. Little bit. At least I know what he’d be talking about and the assessment isn’t too bad. I hope. And less distractions. And I think that’ll be my only exam for midsem.

Anyway, it’s really weird not seeing the people from my old uni… Like something would come up and I could just imagine what they would say or what I would say to them except they’re not there. People here also seems nice but it seems more disciplined.. well not disciplined exactly but more I dunno, mature, independent etc etc. Even the cute guy is not like what I thought he’d be like just from his looks. Maybe kiwis are really more reserved than aussies LOL Or maybe it’s just I’ve gotten used to Aussies’ loud obnoxious stereotype by nzers. Hahah okay I say that with endearment especially since most are not. I love how laid-back it is there and here. I don’t think I can live in a different atmosphere now.

Ahh! Everything’s due but I’m not doing anything probably until right when it’s time to hand in! I hate it. It’s just every time I’m at home too or with my friends. But I can do it, I mean today, I actually did some work at uni!

I wanted to stay later to be able to do more but what do I think? I can do it at home! I have my board and plus I can play music so it won’t be so bad. And I can take breaks anytime I want, maybe go on msn while working too. Then I did not do anything! I just surfed the net. Found some Twilight dirt- like the actors showed up on VMA something for some minutes. Taylor was cuuute. He is getting buff D: personally, not my thing on him. And like most people, I got irritated when they cut off Robert! He didn’t even get a chance. But I’m not going to go on that, this post is not about Twilight. Anyway, I was checking out my communities in LJ and damn so many updates! I wish I can catch up with all of it. My fandoms are getting wider. I also randomly went on bebo. Something I don’t do much, dunno why. And awww I suddenly miss all my friends in NZ. Oh well, time’s moving and everything’s changing. Ugh, see I’m procrastinating here even more.

I’m really pissy at myself. I can’t get anything I want and need done. It’s really time to change, and I gotta stop saying that and not doing anything.

English essay is due tomorrow, that means I only have a day to do everything. At least it is not too long, only 1000 words this time. Note to self: make sure I get my history essay started too soon.

The other works are due soon too. I really need chemistry done so I’ll do that straight after the English. Then History. Oh and Materials too. I must not leave that one to the last minute or it’ll kill me. Aw man the notes I still have to do! I’ve been putting that off really bad. There are all the other works too but I will stop there for now. Folio, I’ll worry next week. I’ll just try to do as much as I possibly can.

On a happy thought, my wigs are coming soon! Two weeks! I can’t wait. I wonder what they’ll look like.. I hope it’s like the photos and it wouldn’t look too bad on me. Man, if the wigs are coming soon, I really need a kick in the ass. I haven’t done my costumes yet! Three weeks until manifest. I’m so screwed.

I still need to go to the gym too. I went for a week a couple of weeks ago. Then I had my period, and stopped. And then, I haven’t gotten myself motivated again to go. So, gotta get back to that.

I slept over my friends house last night again. The aim was the same- to do some work and study together. Yet, yesterday we didn’t do much. It was only after some hours that I had to give in and do some of my projects or I’ll fail.

Of all the things I could’ve done, I did my hatching for freehand. Something that I could’ve done by myself, so what was the point of doing it there? But I guess it was better than doing something else unrelated to uni. I hatched for hooours. It started to look good, I didn’t want to stop but I was so tired and hungry.

We went to have dinner at some Chinese place. It was small restaurant and I could see only a couple working with one assistant. Apparently, that’s how Chinese’s usually work when I asked my friend about it. I rather thought that was kinda stingy. But to each their own. I ordered sweet and sour and we had to wait awhile. Some elderly Aussies came in and there were no tables bigger than two’s. A table was empty next to us and another next to some couple eating. The waitress or assistant or whatever she was, had the nerve to ask us to move! Okay, I wouldn’t have minded moving but we have been waiting for some time for our food and the couple at the other table was kinda annoying. Finally, the food came, and undoubtedly, it was pretty good. Not as much as I would’ve like but it was nice. I don’t know if I’d go there again. The food was great in taste but not worth the portion and the bad service. I prefer the other restaurants around.

On the way back, we went to Baskin Robbins for some nice choc mint ice cream again! I love that ice cream shop. One day I will buy a whole tub of choc mint from there! The we quickly went in safeway to buy some snacks and there were these crumpets thing. It was a weird little thing. It’s like pancakes except really bouncy and elastic-y. We got that too.

Walking back to my friend’s place, we began talking about the supernatural and stuff. Like god and ghosts and afterlife. I dunno how it came to that since we were talking about games before. Personally, I don’t believe in them but a little part of me kind of does, just in case. Anyway, it was a weird topic.

When we got to our destination, I was lazy to get back to work. My friend wasn’t much of a help since she wasn’t doing work as well. But I did continue hatching until late. I still wasn’t finished when I got really bored and sick of it.

I looked around the room, looking for a distraction. And I found a very nice one indeed. A book. Lately, I have been reading so much fiction that I have for a while. The book was “My Story”, I have heard of it from a couple of other people and they said it was pretty good. It was about a boy that was abused by his mother and was really sad. I wasn’t really much of the depressing mood at that moment but I read some anyway. It sort of reminded me of some really angsty fanfic. Lol, you know you read too much fanfiction when you think an original fiction is a fanfiction. Anyway, I read some until I was so sleepy to focus.

The next morning we tried the crumpets thing. Actually we tried it last night but we didn’t toast it so it didn’t taste good at all. It tasted like some sort of plastic! So weird. So we were going to do it right this time and put it in the toaster. Funny how different it was then than it were after it was toasted. It was crispier and had a some pancake taste. We had it with ice cream, ahh so sweet, and it was really nice.

Not much happened afterwards since we decided to do some of our work. I was looking through my projects, assignments and notes and I realised how much stuff was incomplete and how much more I have to do in two weeks! In two little weeks, everything is due! What happened to the time?? I swear I had heaps more time to do these but I didn’t. Not to mention, I wanted to do some of my drawings again because I didn’t like it. Ahhh the stress! I really wish I have powers to control time.

Ugh my week at uni was so boring. We actually got up on Monday to go to uni surprisingly. But I’ve gotta admit, I didn’t function too well. I was taking so long to do anything! It was my friend’s birthday on Tuesday lol though he skipped it. He’s having a house party on tomorrow, I don’t know if I should go there or go clubbing. Oh well whatever. So many birthdays this week. My sister, my aunt, my other friend, my dad…

But yeah, he was lucky to miss Tuesday because I was so not in the mood. At least we didn’t have history! I skipped out one of the CAD as well to finish my roof. Though, I actually didn’t get to finish it until we stayed back. And my roof was ugly. It doesn’t even sit flat on the surface. I should really take greater care on my work so that I can be proud of it.

Wednesday was a bore. Maths and chemistry are really starting to make me fall asleep. Not to mention OH&S. And we have the same teacher for all three! I don’t know whether that is better than having three different ones or not. Then, structural engineering… I was falling behind and some stuff I just can’t follow as I my attention has gotten really bad in that class. And in English, my attention dropped dead. The only reason I stayed awake was to draw some of my OC’s on my notebook. Gotta admit, one of them looked hot xD I need my scanner back.

Anyway, I gotta remember these for visual thinking:
1 - tea cup, red jaguar sportscar
2 - noah, blue borje bicycle
3 - may, size 42 black boots
4 - ray, green 4H leads
5 - law, 2kg yellow bananas
6 - jaw, black square-faced omega watch
7 - key, green case 50cm white measuring tape with brown lettering/numbers
8 - tag, $8,000,000 blue rotring rubber
9 - bay, 75cm aluminium T-square
10 - toes, orange clutch pencil

I should draw something for it to help me remember since my memory is the worst. A doodle should do. When I have time.

Hahah, today-er yesterday I got lazy and skipped it. I hope I didn’t miss too much. It were only two subjects… the two subjects which I’m really behind on and didn’t understand. Sigh. I need to get over this and concentrate on my studies!

We have a project and the first part was to report on five different components and so we went Bunnings. And so we woke up pretty early to catch a tram down to Port Melbourne since it was the nearest one I can remember. We walked around for a bit to where I thought it was, but then it wasn’t there! So we went back around to another street. Isn’t it fun being lost? Especially lugging around bags. We asked this random lady in front of a house and we were right! It was in the direction we first went except a bit further and hiding behind other buildings and trees.

Finally, we got to Bunnings. I got a look at pretty much everything in there. Though we were lazy to actually measure things so we found some that already had dimensions. Some have trade literature and it had everything in there so we took some instead of looking for other ones. We took pictures for reference to re-draw later and I actually traced some like the plumbing tube thing I forgot the name of. Oh well. Anyway, hopefully that was enough and we were tired and sick of Bunnings already.

It was raining while we were inside and thankfully it stopped when we finished. It’s not as if I don’t like rain. In fact, I really like rain. Although, it is just annoying when I have stuff I don’t want wet.

So we walked to the nearer tram station. We stopped at the further one when we came but it’s okay, we found it. On the way there, you can see the cold steam all throughout the asphalt from the cold rain and the hot sun. It looked really weird, like those misty crap on witchery shops and stuff.

Anyway, for lunch, we had fish and chips. It was sooo good. I miss the fish n chips in NZ though. Aw.

We went back to the city late afternoon and instead of going to the library we got distracted on shopping. I bought a long skivvy top. It looked really warm too! But I hate skivvies since they don’t suit me at all. Stupid damn boobs. Then we went around more shops. I wanted a fingerless gloves except the one I saw wasn’t the type I liked.

My friend had to work so I went home hoping for a nice relaxing boring night.

But my housemate’s friend was leaving and had booked out a room at a club and invited me to go. I was feeling really tired but I said okay. I mean why not? So we went. Her friends were driving us there but we had one less seat so we squiiished in to fit. We were just worried if cops were around. And there were lots of cops around- it was Friday night, in the city, to the club.

When we got there, I was pretty worried about my ID. I really shouldn’t be anymore considering I look older but y’know I don’t want to be stranded alone outside because I’m underage. Plus it was a private room in the club. So I got in.

Not as many people as I thought would be in there. Overall, it wasn’t that good and I would’ve preferred doing something else. But I know decorum and tried to have fun. We danced around and drank a bit. Okay so it was kinda fun but still. Plus my dress sucked and I need to keep pulling it up or down. But that’s beside the point.

I was shattered that there weren’t any, at all, hot guys. Come on?! Oh well, we left pretty early, around 3. I could’ve stayed longer since I wasn’t sleepy but the mood wasn’t what I wanted. When we got home, I still wasn’t sleepy so might as well update this.

I should really sleep.
