Argh.

Been a busy couple of weeks:

Various society stuffs (RUMC and Neko mostly)
Work (Pracs are taking longer)
Admin issues with Kay and Zoe.

Although, that basically sums it up.

Last weekend Kay was away so I went out with Markles, Brad, Evol, Zoe and SJ. Was quite a lot of fun. Went to Champs where some drunk twit almost ended up with broken fingers for trying to feel Zoe up while Evol had his arms around her. Also had a random session at Steers: just talking rubbish for the most part. Which reminds me, I owe Evol about R20. *makes note*
Zoe was really tired, so Evol walked her back while the rest of us waited outside Champs for him and Markles to get back. After they got back, we figured we might as well just head back up to res.
Forgot to mention that we met up with Cathleen (from TP) and Dale. When we got back up the Hill, I went to fetch Pratchett books for her and then we sat and talked for ages.

Saturday night Brad and Markles decided to try and take SJ on in a drinking competition. I don't think I need to point out that Brad and Mark failed to win. Miserably. Swaying was very noticeable.... Anyway, a whole bunch of people I knew were on the mosaic, so I joined them. After that we went to the Old Gaol for a bit. Then we went back up the Hill, where I sat talking with Cathleen for ages again.

The rest of the week was pretty humdrum, but I got to climb a fair bit, so it's all good. Signed up for Goju Ryu, RUMC, RUCUS, Neko and ROCSOC. The last is sort of expected as a Geology student. The talks should be useful as well though.

Other than that, Kay and Zoe are really annoying me. Just for the record. Not going to go into it, ask if you really *have* to know. I'll decide if you're right though. :P

Right, more work now.

Updateses time again

Quite a bit has happened since I last posted.

First, I still don't know if I passed my supp, since I am now, along with everyone else I've spoken to, locked out of ROSS. Highly helpful. I don't feel good about it though.

Other than that, I spent the last weekend of my holiday getting high and sunburned at the top of van Reenen's Pass.

To clarify, there was a climbing comp which I entered with a friend's brother. We didn't expect to place, but we had fun. On-sighted a 20 so the weekend wasn't a total loss. If I had been able to actually climb a bit more in the holidays, I might have done better. Need to con someone into taking me climbing next year. Can call it training. ;) Any volunteers?

I also got to spin fire. [cue glowy eyes] That was so awesome! No photos, but I didn't burn myself doing it, so it's all good. Also, I was told by the guy whose poi I borrowed, that I "wasn't too bad" so I'm fairly pleased with myself.

Going back to Rhodes on Thursday. w00t of note that one.

Story time part the derx....

Story 2. (Not a sequel, although I am working on one, it isn't working how I want it to.)

Attempt to enjoy....

*goes off to read more Schlock Mercenary*

Story type thing....

Um yeah. Here we go.

Bear in mind that I managed to cut it down to 47 words from about 3k. It was an attempt to see how long I could avoid coming to a point....

Actual story.

Attempt to enjoy....

*goes off to read more Schlock Mercenary*

...

Not much happening, need to get the hell out of here for a while. Oh yes, going to see about applying for my German passport, just so's I got one again. We shall see.

On the plus side, managed to write 3k worth of totally pointless story. Not too much worse than what I've heard other people write too.... Might post a link to it at some stage.

For some reason I'm not sleeping. Only got to sleep at 0600 this morning, woke at 1600. Really annoying me, let alone my folks, who are now moaning that "they never see me despite me coming home to visit". Meh. Over it.

Justforthehellofit.

Just felt like posting again, mostly because I need to vent a bit.

I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF THIS PLACE! I NEED TO ACTUALLY GET AWAY FOR A FEW DAYS WITHOUT MY FAMILY AROUND.

OK. Done. Post over.

*returns to watching Ergo Proxy (It is Truth. Very good so far, which isn't very far, but anyway. meh.)
