Something happened....

w00t!!!!one11!!!

I actually did something today. Admittedly not anything really productive, but something different:
Went to the beach.

That meant heading down to Scottburgh (about 2 hours away for them as don't know) to meet him. Had an awesome time in the waves.

Waiting for sunburn now....

Unfortunately I didn't get any photos, so you can't actually see what happened, but it was fun.
Plus one of my parental units (my mom) got to meet one of my Rhodent friends so it was good.

Anyway, I need to get some sleep, work tonight was hectic. Not much to show for it though. Grrrr....
More if something else happens, I'm hoping Mark can come visit some time at least.

Hmm....

It's not that my time has been limited, it's just that I've really done nothing.

And I mean that: I have been watching anime and poiing with little of anything else. But, on the plus side: I is getting to Durban on Friday to meet Tristan. So hopefully I'll be able to say a bit more then.

But, rest assured loyal readers (such as there are), your favourite Splat is still alive and breathing!

(So far)

Incidentally, try doing a search for paper planes on Google. Lots of fun actually....

Home!

Wow.

That took long enough.... The bus was late so I only left Grahamstown at about 11am. Instead of 9am. Wonderful start. Furthermore, we somehow managed to lose a grand total of three hours on the trip.

I got here (eShowe, for them as don't know) at half-past-two in the morning yesterday. On the bright side, I'm home.

It's good to be back, seen many of my old friends, went back to work tonight and remembered how much fun it is for me. Luckily we were busy. It was hectic, but I enjoyed it.

Now to continue making a dent in my anime list, unfortunately, I've forgotten Evangelion in my trunk, so that's a no go. Hellsing will have to do. I like it though, it's pretty cool. Lots of red though. Hehe. Guess vampires do that.

Anyway, I will be updating this, but less often. Have good day.
*Aston disappears in flash of light*

Goodbye to G-town

Well, I am out of here tomorrow morning. Intend to blow my internet cap first though (or at least make a serious dent in it)....


Another day of doing very little: packed up my room this morning, doubtless forgetting stuff, and then, after lunch: arb time!

1. went to go buy some munchies for the bus (jelly babies. mmmm)
2. trekked to FNB after the ATM swallowed Tris' card
3. waited around near the Arch for Jade and Jody.
4. went for milkshakes at Mad Hatters, which were awesome!
5. arbed around on St Peter's Lawn till 5

So it was a good day. I've unbooked supper so I am going down the hill to get an Olde's Burger. It deserves the capital letters by the way: they are really cool.

But that is for later, first, I need to say goodbye to Joe and take a shower.

My stuff is now locked in the boxroom, for better or ill. Hope I haven't forgotten anything too important. My room looks so empty without the clutter.... Will vacumn before I leave tomorrow.

Bus is going to be soo boring. Least I borrowed a book from Jody (I've finished all of mine) so I can keep partially awake. But knowing myself, I'll sleep a great deal of the way. Unless I meet someone I know. In which case I'll talk their ear off.

Then home! This time tomorrow, well, I'll still be on the bus but you get the idea.


To everyone reading this:
*listens to echoes of empty auditorium*
Have an awesome holiday, see you next term.

This will be updated, but not as often. Feel free to leave a comment to tell me what you are planning.

This is mine: extension cord, laptop, anime, music, e-books. (fill in the blanks :D )
Hope to go climbing with the Freers, depending on their plans.
Mark: I'll see you around!

Aston, over and out for semester 1!

Finished! (and post 20)

Wrote my last exam today(technically yesterday...)! I is now free!
The exuberance is not only because I'm finished, I think I did pretty well today. But we shall see. Doubtless I've made some stupid mistakes.

Free to sit in the garden and read e-books and watch anime. Yay!
Need to organise an extension cord.

I leave tomorrow. A lovely 12 hour bus trip. With another hour and a half after that. And the laptop only has a 2 hour battery life. Big whoop.

Will have to get a proper book instead. Or just sleep. I think I may do that.

Talking of books, Jim Baen, the owner of Baen Books has had a stroke. I'm hoping that he comes out of it alright: he's really trying to get good books out. And he has a very progressive e-book policy.

On that sadder note, I is outta here. I need some sleep before I tackle the ground-zero that is my room.

Yay!

I feel much better.

Tris, Geoff, Joe and I went to go play squash. So now, although I'm tired, I'm a lot less frustrated.

Tristan just did another poi show, just for Geoff and I. He got the chain wrap right. It's funny, because he can't do it with practice poi. Strange.

So, although I'm still dubious about the maths, I'm feeling way better. And I've made peace with the person I annoyed (will just have to watch my big mouth in future). *does happy dance*

Now to physics.
Yay!

What a wonderful day....

Not.

I think I did OK in the maths test but am not sure. Will have to wait and see.
My fears about intergration were fully justified but I think the limits and differentiation went alright.

And as if that wasn't bad enough, I managed to offend someone I would much rather be friends with.

All in all, a lovely day.
Going to play squash this evening so hopefully I can get some aggression out.

I need to do something physical again, but running is not going to be it.
Squash is good, climbing would be better but that's a no-go. Pity.

One more exam to go though! Monday evening all shall be right with the world. I hope.
That's if I manage to get through the weekend without alienating anyone else.
