All is going relatively well in my world these days. Though I sometimes get frustrated/sad about not having a job, I am trying to make the most of it because I know soon enough I will be eye-gougingly busy and wishing I had this time back. Since I started seeing the girl Zohara introduced me to, that's taken up some amount of free time; since she ( Read more... )

As has become customary in my life, today was an interesting and varied day; I went to the library and took some books out, and then met Apter and Zach in Mel Lastman Square (conveniently located next door to the library) and read on the grass for a while. Then I went with Zohara to meet a friend of hers that she wanted me to meet. We went for ( Read more... )

Radiohead put on an incredible show Friday, but I think I am just boycotting the Amphitheatre from now on except in the most specific of circumstances. The lawn was muddy and completely packed, way more than I've ever seen it. To pay 60 bucks to stand in a crowd and see nothing is nowhere near worth it. Fortunately, we just moved up to the aisles ( Read more... )

I got back Tuesday from my fifth trip to Vegas, and fourth with Damelin. As usual, it was a good time, though it would have been better if I didn't run bad at the poker table. It was a bit depressing to have to come back and withdraw from my online poker account to make up for it. Still, we ate well, had some laughs and his friend Rich fit nicely ( Read more... )

It's been a bit over a week now since I got home, and it has been going very well for the most part. I've spent a lot of time seeing friends, and had a great birthday/welcome back barbecue Sunday that was well attended and a great time for all. It was really the first time I have haphazardly thrown together all groups of my friends, since I usually ( Read more... )

Since I was pretty well away from the internet for most of my recent Contiki adventure, I did not get the chance to update at all, so I will test the limits of Livejournal by attempting a massive update now.

As I am waiting for the airport shuttle and using up the last of my internet card, I figure it's a good opportunity for a few random notes I forgot to mention in my last entry:

-I had a Babycake yesterday, which are essentially tiny cupcakes that cost a dollar and are surprisingly tasty. My favourite item on the menu was definitely the "Giant Baby ( Read more... )

This entry is gonna be all over the place, pretty much because I've been all over the place. Let's begin ( Read more... )

As I have entered into my final exam period and ostensibly the end of my university career, I have taken to looking back over the last 6 years and thinking about what I might have done different (and by looking back, I mean my own pathetic version of nostalgia: fawning over Google Maps satellite images of Western ( Read more... )

Last night was a bit of an epic; Ross and I had discussed having one really crazy night before he left for the UK, and it was decided that last night would be it. Truth be told, his goodbye party will probably be on a similar scale, but I digress. Ross, Steph, Jaime and I went for a nice dinner at Parnell, a trendy neighbourhood in town, and went ( Read more... )
