Hello all! Sm'ee again!
well, today is a day off, and it's 7:01am cause i gotta finish some cleaning up and vacuuming before the dell technician comes over.
dell technician? ya what? well, you see, Monique decided to see if the Lappie would like the taste of tea....turns out it didnt. still works, but most of the left hand side of the keyboard works ( Read more... )

yeah, really puts things into perspective, doesn't it? action buses were awesome (i say were cause i understand their cutting services like a gardener cuts hedges), and having no bills made saving easier. still, gotta grow up sometime, right? ;)

I miss a "big night out" costing a mere $20. I also miss not having to plan weeks/months in advance for said big night out & being able to chat to a friend living on the other side of town at 7:30 & decide that we'll meet up at 9 & go clubbing - & both of us had plenty of time to get ready & be there on time (& sober up the next morning at Canberra College with a bottle of J.D. in my handbag, for some reason...). I miss being able to have a big night out every week if I wanted to. I miss everything & everyone being within walking distance from my house - or a short-ish bus ride. I miss paying $6.30 for a taxi home at 4am after clubbing. I miss the express buses & the number 36 Bus for it's awesomeness. I miss paying $1.30 for a bus ride, or *shock horror* $40.20 for a monthly (the last monthly ticket I bought was more than triple that!). I do NOT miss the number 38 bus, because it behaved like a Sydney bus & pretended that the timetables were more like guidelines than actual rules. I miss my Canberra-friends & family ( ... )

i never really got into Kingsleys...apparently kingsleys chips are the best chips in nsw, but i dunno.

now theres something i didnt add to my list though.

I Miss a Cheap Night Out

theres nothing close by apart form the odd pub, and i'm not enough of a yob to want to hang about in them drinking beer. pass.

We have 2 nightclubs & a pool hall near us, however both nightclubs are scummier than Shooters, but without the cheap drinks & good music - thus defeating their entire purpose. Also they seem to be filled with girls in short-shorts & high-heels (interesting combination :S) & guys with the fake-mohawk-&-collar-up look - both types of people seem to drink too much & have extremely low standards.

Rob saw someone using the bar as a urinal when we left one of the clubs last time we went out in this area. Needless to say, we haven't been back. The worst thing is, we live in a nice, family-ish area, so I don't get how the clubs are this bad! The only clubs I've found here that I like are in the city (about 45min - 1hr drive away) & they're no cheaper than the rest!

The pool hall is ok... but really quite boring for me as I don't find pool fun at all.

Re: Pool Halls veritor July 12 2007, 20:50:21 UTC

I seem to be cursed to live near the things you know. but i don't play pool except with friends and to make an ass of myself, which i don't particularly wanna do here. while the clubs are all in stumble distance, i'd be mugged, stabbed and possibly manraped by the time i crossed the park....(which is just a big wide open space with the odd tree and some tables)
