* whats that thing... u know... that thing... whats it called... you know the thing... *
Got my uni results.
ISO: D
Management: D
Marketing: C
Economics: P
It's pretty much what I had expected. I was kind of hoping for a Distinction in Marketing too but I knew if I got one it would be a very low one. Thank god I passed economics, I was gonna freak out if I had to do it again. Argh! I was thinking of going and just sitting in (i think it's called auditing) on the intro to economics lectures next semester, because it's probably something useful I should learn to expand my knowedge base of how the world works. But I probably won't do it. I don't know how to find out what time the lectures are on anyway, without finding someone doing the subject. I spose i'll look into it when I go back.
Hoping Rosie, Michael and my bro are all gonna come visit me in berra on the thursday of my first week back. I hope we'll all be able to fit in my room. If Ellen's going home on the weekend she might offer someone her mattress again, but it would have to fit two people and it would be rather cosy. I'm sure Caitlin wouldn't mind someone sleeping on her floor if we really had problems but it should be totally fine. Don't worry. =D It shall be fantastic!
Oh yeah, i'm supposed to be working on Jasha's blogskin. Oooops. I shall get right to it. See I got distracted yesterday with doing my own blogskin and now i'm just marvelling in my brilliance coz I think the skin is wonderful. Okay thank you to the real designer coz it wasn't actually me. Blah Blah Blah. But =P still. I did lots of editing and stuff. The only problem I have with it is that there isn't much room for text. I could probably fix that. But it'd take a LOT of effort, and major complications may occur and then my brain may explode. So I think I might try and do Jasha's skin first, and see if I decide it's less of a problem when i'm done.
Oh yeah and my profile page is complete rambles. I wanted it to fill up the page but not need a scroll bar so it had to be about the length it is now. So I pretty much just garbled. At least I didn't just write about PIE. 3.14159... etc etc etc
And i'm not particularly happy with my friends and credits page. I think I want to put more links on and get rid of the ~ marks. They kinda annoy me.
Argh we went out to dinner tonight and I can taste onions. Blergh. We went out to Chinese. I was completely exhausted but i'm trying this thing where I agree to go places and see people and do what other people want to do. It's strange but i'm trying my hardest to be nice. So anyway the conversation went like this.
DAD: "Do you want to go out to dinner?"
ME: "I'm really tired"
DAD & MUM: [other conversation]
ME: "Actually I'm happy to go out to dinner if you want to"
DAD & MUM: [other conversation]
DAD: "Well our daughter said she doesn't want to go out to dinner because she's too tired"
ME: "I said i'm happy to go out to dinner"
DAD & MUM: [other conversation]
DAD: "Our daughter said she's too tired from the party"
ME: "I'm happy to go out to dinner if you want to"
DAD: "Go ask your brother if he wants to go out to dinner"
So I went and asked Mitch. We went to the chinese that they all went to when I was catching the bus back from berra. It was really nice. It's small, the place is clean, the service comes with a smile. We had a conversation with the waiter. I drank wine which actually tasted good. The waiter laughed at my parents.
I think it's story time.
When I was a little girl I was out at one of those places like Old Sydney Town with my family. I'm not sure if that's actually where we were but they had those clidesdale horses pulling the cart that took people for rides. People could sit up the top or down the bottom and the driver sat up the front. I was standing there with Dad, waiting for the other people to get off and I told him that I wanted to sit up the top. He mistook my words and asked the driver if I could sit next to him and then he put me up next to the driver. I actually wanted just to sit up the top with the rest of the people.
I don't like fusses being made for me or anything of the sort. If something's wrong I try not to complain. So when Dad brings up something about sizzling steak after I asked for the Fillet Steak Chinese Style and then the waiter asks if we want it sizzling and Dad says "yes that's how she likes it" when I said nothing of the sort. And they're all pleased and i'm just trying to melt into the wall.
I sat in the corner of the restaurant. I will always try and sit by the wall facing as much of the restaurant as possible. I like to know what's going on. Oh and I kinda like to be secure.
Omg this post is getting depressing. Argh ARgh ARgh.
They're taking our Foxtel IQ box away tomorrow morning. So I was planning on staying up tonight and watching movies that i've recorded but haven't watched yet but i'm just too tired and kinda can't be bothered to care about television anymore. So I think i'm going to finish this post and go to bed. Or maybe have a shower. I'm not sure if i'll have one tonight or tomorrow or both... maybe I could do both... hmmm...
Well I have to wash my hair at some point and we're having people over on sunday so I really should straighten it before then so that means saturday night which really means I have to wash it tonight if I want it to dry before I straighten it. I know what you're all thinking right now...
... you don't care. But this is why it's my blog. With my rants. And my random thoughts. Remember, i'm very very selfish all the time and don't write my posts for you =).
I wish I could use big words.
* Money must be hahahahahahahaha. *
I'm not sure if I shall keep the new template or not. I think its purdy tho. And I was maybe thinking of changing the address since i've kinda gotten rid of the title now. Don't worry, I won't change it without telling you all. I'll post a link on here if I end up changing it.
Michael's party was last night. Had a very good time, drank some, but not too much. It's nice to be able to put faces with the names and email addy's of ppl on the mailing list thingo.
Saw Stick It today. Argh, absolute crap. Blergh. But it was nice to go to the movies for the second time this year. Saw Janani at the station on the way home, havent seen her in yonks. I told her to say hi to her sister for me.
Pillow is sitting next to me. Tempted to just kinda slide down in my chair and fall asleep. But I shall resist. I shall finish this blog post and then check the group site and then either clean up my room or go to sleep on the couch in the family room.
Stuff is too confusing. Actually it's not really confusing at all. And i'm glad that life doesn't let you have everything that you want. It would just be too easy if it was like that. There's something I want. But it's not allowed and I know where the line is so I plan on suffering in silence. And i'm saying 'suffering' like it's a big thing, it really isn't. Well it kind of is but I plan on ignoring it forever and ever so it helps if I think of it as a small thing. A miniscule thing. A non-existent thing. A nothing. It helps.
Spent a lot of time at Mikey's party sitting on the trampoline discussing orgasms. Yes orgasms, I did not misspell organisms. The problem with the discussion is that nobody had...
I don't like that paragraph anymore. I have decided to stop it right there and instead of deleting it I am just going to leave it where it is. To sit in silence. Unloved and unwanted.
The title of this blog - the inconstant moon - is from Romeo and Juliet. It's the whole "swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon" kind of thing. I thought it was rather approproate because i'm fairly inconstant. But I can't say i've ever mooned anybody before. Yes Katharine, make a crap joke for a few laughs, but just remember, they're not laughing with you, they're laughing AT you.
Third person works wonders. We got our tax packages in the mail recently. Argh. I hate doing my tax return, it's not like it's even that difficult, it's just that I don't like doing it. It's so proper and has to to be right and everything. Hopefully this year i'll get a tax refund.
I need a job methinks.
Didja like your monkey michael? I really had absolutely no idea what to get you and it seemed that everybody had got you alcohol so I figured it was appropriate to go in the absolute opposite direction. Remember, his name is Cluedo but you are welcome to change it if you like.
Slept at Megan's last night. I woke up at about 4amish and was going to roll over when I found a cat sleeping with me. But I scared her away coz I rolled over before realising that she was there. Unfortunate, she was very warm.
Tom's stopped sleeping with me. Ever since I slept out in the lounge room on sunday night, I haven't seen him since.
This is strange. Even though I'm writing small paragraphs I can't seem to stop typing. I'm writing things that mean nothing and have little literary value whatsoever, but I just can't seem to stop it. I like the rhythmic sound of the typing I suppose. Argh I with I could type with more than one finger. It's weird and unnatural. Actually I lie. I use one finger on my left hand. And three on my right. I use my pinkie finger to press the enter key. My pointer for half the keys and my middle finger for the other half.
So tired. And i'm a bit cold. I have to go for a bushwalk one day soon. But I promised mum I would finish her photos this weekend and we've got people over on sunday, picnic on monday, camp wilson on the weekend after this one. I have to fit the Dentist in there somewhere, getting my hair done on wednesday. Have to find time to do something with Alicia and I want to get more photos developed for my wall but I don't really want to pay for them.

There are a number of blog skins I fell in love with just because of the font. I mean the layouts themselves were great but the fonts used were just amazing. I know, i'm pathetic, falling in love with a font, but its fantastic. *sigh*

I have mood swings. They are annoying. I got exceptionally "down-in-the-dumps" as my mother would call it, last night. For no real reason. Well I was majorly pissed off at peter and still am, but that wasn't the soul reason. I was just feeling weird. Dad dropped his phone into the ocean on Sunday when we went sailing so he had to get a new phone, so he used my plan (which had run out ages ago) to get a swanky new phone like my bro has. I'm annoyed at that because with the change in my plan I lost my 'after 8pm call any phone for under 10minutes for 30cents' deal which was fantastic to call canberra with. Now i've got 18c/30seconds and 18c texts which is alright but not that great. Oh well, now i'll just have to call canberra on the home phone.
Worked out my budget. I spend around $150/week apparently. It seems like a lot I know, but it does work out in the end. It's alright coz that's about how much money I have coming in so i'm not eating into my savings. I really should get a job though.
My brother bought a car. A ford conquest sport. I havent actually seen it, we test-drove the ford conquest which was perfectly fine. It arrives on friday I think.
I watched Miss Congeniality 2 this afternoon.
I was actually seriously thinking of going back to canberra on Monday (the one just passed) and coming back to sydney on either wednesday or thursday. I chose not to because a) expensive, and b) it's impractical because I would have to buy groceries and probably half-finish everything before I had to leave again. But I was seriously thinking about it.
This isn't much of a blog post. I just dont feel like i'm really in the mood. I don't know why. My posts have changed because there are things that I just cannot share for reasons not-to-be-disclosed.
