chill.
It’s been 11 days since I last blogged, so I thought I’d chuck a blog.
It has been quite relaxing after the exams, and I’ve tried to make the most of the holidays.
Firstly, I bought the classical guitar that I wanted. Pretty nice guitar. Nice sound, and just sexy looking. It was $319, so its pretty cheap. I was one of the first things I did after my last exam haha. Picture is attached.
I finished on the first two days of the exam period, so there was really nothing to do. Everyone else were still on exams.
Tuesday was alright. Johnny finished his last exam, and we basically went to Allans music to check out some guitars, and spent like 3 hours in that sound box, testing that blues amp. ITS fking crazy sounding. 15watt, but more powerful than a 50watt. Mainly because its tube based. But yea, killed so much time. We then went to play some pool, and went home after that. It killed my day basically. Oh and that night, I decided to download Twilight and watch it, since its such a ‘big hit’. Wasn’t that bad to be honest. More of a chick’s movie, and it was a little too mixed, like too rushed a bit. Meh.
Me and Sean decided to go Canberra a few days ago. It was pretty awesome, considering Canberra is an apparent ‘hole’. The bus tickets were $15.00. Pretty damn awesome. That was probably the main reason. Also, Frank provided us with accomidation and all that. So money saving! and yea. Lets say, I blew that money I saved @ the casino. $110 :@.
Roulette and Blackjack. I don’t get how the dealer can get a perfect blackjack like 4 times in a row. It pisses me off. Oh well.
So first night, we arrived @ 6:30 ish, and basically dropped our stuff off and went to dinner. Frank shouted us dinner @ some Korean restraunt. Preh good. Then we hit the casino, which yea.. dw.
The next day, was Questacon. It was awesome I have to say. It may be the childishest place I have ever been to, but it was interesting. It feels very weird to be hanging around like hundreds of primary school kids, checking out shit and going WOAH!! But whatever. It’s an interesting science museum. We then trekked our way over to Parliament house, and took some pictures. Pretty cool.
At night, Frank cooked dinner and we went clubbing after that. I didn’t actually drink much that night, so I was sober most of the time. Frank and his friend Sam took 25 standard drinks. Fucking crazy.
After all that clubbing, it was 5AM, and as soon as we got back, there was a room party going on in someones lodge. So rofl, we crashed there. free wine, drinks and ciggys. It’s pretty cool down at ANU. It’s like really free, and like people do the randomest shit there.
Friday was tiring. After that long night, we woke up at 12 and trekked to Subway to have breakfast. Frank bought Scabble and we decided to play that when we got home. It was damn interesting for some reason now. We actually wanted to watch a movie, but there just weren’t any good movies. Gonna wait for transformers lol.
At night we went to Dickson, this food suburb. Taxied our way there, and ate chinese. Then hit the casino again. FUCK. I lost $30.00, so it’s okay. I need to learn these tactics in the casino. Roulette and Blackjack. I shall read some google articles on how to play this shit.
Anyway, after the casino, we back to lodge, and played a few rounds of pool. I went to sleep because I have work on Saturday, but they were all downstairs drinking or some shit.
The next morning came, and we woke up at 6AM to catch the bus back to Sydney. Home sweet home. Got home, changed, and went straight to work. And.. I’m sick again. How great. I think its because of that night we went out. I wore only a shirt, and nothing else. I had a few drinks, became mega warm, and walked out into this 2 degree weather. I dunno. Right now, I have that really painful cough, and a headache lol.
But anyhow, these few days have been damn hectic I have to admit.
ANU is a damn awesome place too. Theres so much that you can do there. In the lodge commonroom, theres like a net cafe, TV with movies playing on it, pool tables, foozeball, pingpong, and like, mega chill out place. And the rooms are pretty awesome.
I shall visit down there again. Canberra is more interesting that I thought 
Yesterday I had work again, but after I finished, I decided to pop down to KrispyKremes for some donuts. Well also to say hi to Richards brother, but yea, I wanted like 2-3 donuts, and hes like, dw, and started filling up boxes, and gave me 3 boxes of KrispyKremes. DID not expect that at all. I was like.. O.O. Crazy indeed.
Gonna get mega FAT.
Anyway, off to work again now.

Unrelief..
It’s been quite a hectic week. Mainly because of exams, and study. The studying wasn’t too hectic, as I was just laid off, still going out, still playing CS and yea. CS is an annoying problem. I quit CS since year 11? and.. dunno, I happen to pick up CS again, and get addicted to it, a week before the exams. Wonderful timing. This reminds me of the time, picking up facebook before the English exam in the HSCtrials. I can describe myself as an idiot, but its too harsh :). I also picked up blogging during my Term 3 exams last year too. It’s so stupid and weird. But whatever.
Last week was basically study study study study. Well, 30 mins of study and 1 hour of CS per session. HAHA. jks..
Seano and Jared came over last Wednesday. Took my mind off CS.. I mean.. study. Just chilled and played guitar a bit. Oh yea, and played 4-5 hours of GTA IV. They seem more laid off about the exams than me :D.
Last friday was pretty interesting. Met up wtih Ryan nd Jared. Went to that Lindt cafe everyone talked about. First time I been there. Quite classy. Drinking chocolate syrup was also orgasmic. I mean, I ordered Iced Chocolate, but it was literally drinking thick rich choclateeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.. I’m totally thinking about it right now. After that, we had dinner at Hungry Jacks, and headed off to Ryans church. Pretty chillout place, and just did that Friday night youth group thing.
Exams..
I have got nothing to say about exams. It’s over and all, but there is no sign of relief. My accounting exam was horrific. My whole accounting was a 78% Distinction Average, but this exam, I think I might have failed. Failed as in lower than 50%. I wouldn’t care if I failed and dropped my average to 50%, but on the guideline, it said if I fail the exam, I fail the unit, no matter what the fuck I got in the semester. ITS SO FUCKING worrying ARGHHHH. The test was a complete blur, 3 Hours of just shit. Argh, if I fail.. I don’t know what I’m going to do. I swear, it’s such a waste of time and money, this uni thing. If I fail, I don’t want to come to uni anymore. But then again, parents….
I’ve been having sleepless nights, thinking about what the hell I am going to do about all this.
Well, to take my mind off things “after” my last exam, I went to city, and met up with Frank. Played some pool and had dinner, and he set off back to Canbrezza. Then I went to UTS because Sean MADE me go, and wait for him to finish off his engineering, which he wasn’t even doing LOL. Sword fighting with cardboard with EddySon. How ineresting. So yea, after that, dragged him out and went home. UTS is pretty awesome. When you think about it, all of their stuff is RIGHT in the heart of the city. It’s so crazily awesome. I hope I end up there, if I don’t fail that FUCKING EXAM.
Well, holidays is up, and another 1.5 months of it.
Just schrillax.
I already have a list of what to do these holidays, and some goals of the holidays.
One of which, I’m going to Canberra with Seano next Wednesday. Hope it will be fun.

4. Catchup with people I haven’t seen in yonks.

Anyway, time to head off to holidays.

p.s I hope the fucken resuls won’t ruin my perferctly planned holidays.
Welcome Home.
Well, as said before, I planned to move the blog from blogspot to my domain, and here it is. Welcome to the new blog…, well not so new, just, all moved over here.
And its already getting spammed with these advertisment comments. Gotta firewall this shiet from the server.
The past week has been quite alright. Haven’t been up to much. I’m staying at home today, and STUVACing this week, so its pretty boring, and I’m meant to be studying 8-).
I’ve also recently been conforming to ‘twitter’, because of Ryan. Twitter is basically a stripped down naked version of Facebook, and I admit, it is much easier, and quicker to use. And many of the updates from teams, news, celebs, and everything are up to date. Quite love it now.
On Friday night, had a quick catch up Nick, Jared, Raymond nd JackieChan. Just basically killed the day. Rayman called me in the arvo at like 2:30 asking me to go state. So I did end up leaving home, but saw a nice guitar @ Steves, so I stopped by and tested it for like 40-50 minutes. Then caught the train, and ended up meeting Jared. We went Allans nd JBHifi nd shit, but it was like 5:10 already, so the State library already closed. So bummer, I had my books but didnt go study. Then went home at like 10, playing pool and dinner nd shit. Randomly bumped into Garmon at pool too, pretty funny. Anyway what an inproductive day.
This guitar is a classical guitar that I’m talking about, which has electronics and pickups built in, and a smooth cut away. It’s going for an amazingly cheap price, which Steve can do, which is about 300ish. Considering it for now.
Saturday and Sunday was just work. Same shit over and over again. I did overtime on Saturday, doing a stocktake for the Virgin store, which involved counting every single fucking item in the store. But there was a team of like 30 people, so it was quick. Got home at like 1AM, but I got driven by boss. Random to the max. It was damn tiring too.
Sunday was interesting though. Jared’s parents organised a surprise birthday party, and we went in the morning. Me and Sean rushed out at like 9AM finding gifts and buying them. Quite last minute, but yea, it was cool. It was like catch up with like people we haven’t seen since high school, like Kostan/ChristieAdam/Pat and all that. I left early though, for work.
Uni is digging into me again now. Tests coming up in 8 days. Horrible. Don’t know how I’m going to cope, but I sure hope things go fine. Procrastination is digging into me hard too. I’m sitting here writing this blog, instead of having an open book and reading it. Horrible isn’t it. And a big 1200 word essay is due in 7 days too. I can’t wait till this is over.
Anyways, I’m off the study…
