Crying Freedom

Something I learnt today: Across the globe two barbie dolls are sold every second.
Something that made me laugh today: Corny Starwars dialogue.

Finally exams are over. I’ve managed to spend some time drinking and playing poker, watching TV, you know, things I *like* doing.

Today was my first total day of freedom, what with work on Monday and McHouse on Friday. But, I still found myself under house arrest for most of the day. Men came to replace some flooring, men came to install a hand railing and later on in the day a plumber came over as well.

Despite all this, I still managed to escape and see the new Star Wars film. It took me long enough, given my original plan involved a midnight session on opening night.

So, after all that jazz the exams went ok. I’m starting to be concerned about the fact that I maybe didn’t write enough in Microbiology but it is now somewhat out of my control and I really just have to deal with it, don’t I?

So…What have I actually done since the end of exams? Sarah’s birthday party. We all ate food, got drunk and danced about to Blink 182 and the Gorillaz all night. Friday I hung out with my sister and *finally* saw Team America. Saturday I worked and then went to Djaja’s place (I should note that I beat the man home…) where we all drank again and played poker using Marlene’s $3 per kilo dried banana chips as the betting chips. Sunday night I went to visit Gemma and ate souvlaki on a pizza for dinner while watching videos and chilling out. Spent 30 minutes asleep in her lounge room when at 3 am one of her clocks promptly reminded me of its presence, prompting me to move down to the front room.

Monday I went home and started moving furniture around so the floors could be done. Then I went to work (I’d like to remind you all I had a stick class on Sunday) and then went home to move more furniture, which I’ve now returned to original locations. My arms/back are getting just a little bit sick of this.

I like holidays.

hey, that clock only used to chime for the first 12 hours of the day. And then Jo insisted we fix it so that the dinging actually coincided with the hands getting to the hour, so now it dings 24 times a day. Soooo blame her. But at least if it must ding it dings on time now...

Love Gem
