Quite a lot of things has happened and I haven't had a chance to blog them, so this one may be a bit long.
Foremost would probably be my exams and assignments. I do pretty well if I give myself time to prepare, and not so well in the ones where I'm cramming the day or hour before. That happens I suppose but I guess I just have to organise my time better. My assignments are going pretty well too, the marks are showing how much effort I put into them. But I really hate the group work, since there's always a person who's slacking off big-time, and the other people have to cover for them.
Well, on to the parties. Bob had a farewell party for his upcoming (now in the midst) holiday in Europe. He's only going for 3 months so I'm not too sure why he needed a farewell party but he got a fairly full reception over the duration of the night. I had my first drink of Baileys there. The first taste isn't very nice, but I like the milky aftertaste.
The week after (last Saturday) Liv had her 18th birthday party. Our present is a Hello Kitty DS pouch for her new DS, but that's not in stock until July, so she'll just have to wait. In the morning we went to the Coast and had Sizzler's for breakfast. The person leading the way to the Coast got terribly lost and everyone was really pissed off for a while, but then food made everything better. Afterwards we went to TimeZone, where we managed to get 665 tickets!!!! Someone got a power card where they can play x number of games within 2 hours, so we milked it with the Deal Or No Deal game. We played so many games, and we won HEAPS of tickets. The last game we won 400 tickets!!! No kidding!!!
After TimeZone we stuffed around on the beach and got cold and wet and sandy. Then we went to someone's house for a bit of a drinkup, but it kinda turned out a disaster, so no one really stayed over.
Hmm...well....maybe not that much as happened. So many things happen all in one day that sometimes the morning seems like weeks away. This is my first year at uni, and I'm really trying to have fun and enjoy myself as well as study hard and do well.
Work at a restaurant is proving pretty stressful, though I'm glad I quit my little cheapo store. There's so much more I can learn and can give at a restaurant, and seems like a better use of my time, even if the pay isn't glorious. In fact, I just got taxed 46.5% of my wages because they didn't put in my decalre my TFN. The people there are quite nice, though the guys seem nicer than the girls, but I suppose that happens too.
That seems to be about it for now, the only thing left are my oral presentations and my final exams.
Goodnight!
