Maybe I'll start doing this again

I saw Bill Bailey on Monday. He was hilarious.

Mid-sem break

Today has been my first chance to relax since semester started really.
I rearranged my room to fit in the fridge Tez picked up for me, napped, went for a stroll.

My week has been hectic to say the least. Went out Wednesday night after a long day of drinking, ran into one of my friends I haven't seen or talked to for five year who was singing there and drank way too much. I got a text at one in the morning saying how lovely it was to meet me etc etc from a guy I had no memory of talking to or getting a number off.
Thursday we hit up Oh Snap, I remained sober as I had an assignment due the next day which I had hardly started and when we got back at like two I wasn't tired at all! Win, got my game back. I've been so tired the last few weeks, it's been horrible. Sleeping at every chance I get. So I was up until about 3:30 doing that and finished it off in the morning.
Friday night was Tav times, so I was incredibly drunk before 6, and we went parkour-ing round UWA with my uni friends and Tez.
Saturday I went out to see my sister, who is now living back in Perth after about 6 years in England. It was an early night.
Sorry, sounds like I back to just reciting drunken times.

I'm off to drink cask wine and watch Titanic.

Oh dear, it's been almost a month an a half.
I just read one of the American exchange girl's blog and it's incredible. I really need to pick up my game instead of reciting what I do on the weekend.

So, updates: I had a crazy ass rash for about 2 weeks, which started a whole rumour that the Upper Arney West bathrooms were unclean. But it was okay, I wasn't contagious! Oli just had an allergic reaction to something at the same time.
It's currently week 6 of second semester and all of my motivation is gone. Like disappeared, into the wind. Never to be seen again.
I was going to be proactive today and get lectures watch after Formal Hall (the formal dinner we have once a week here) but Firefox stopped working. So I got a bit stroppy and tried so hard to fix it. Didn't happen, I'm on Chrome for the moment. I go through phases of anger and like "fuck you, I'll deal with this tomorrow", then realise it's still going to be not working tomorrow and I have to sort out getting all my passwords again because I fail at life and had all my passwords saved.

I just realised I'm supposed to be at a tutorial right now... Mondays are hectic, I have 8 hours uni followed by Formal Hall and now I have a science tutorial afterwards. Although I skipped a lecture to eat chocolate cake in the sun with some friends this morning... How can you turn that down.
I was having a right whinge about Formal Hall last week to Tez, then realised how many first world problems I have: complaining that I have to not look like a bum once a week when I go to dinner so people can wait on me and we can have a nice 3 course meal.
Have I told you about Tez? I'm kind of seeing him. He is more than a tad egocentric, which is usually the biggest turn-off for me, but this guy is actually a very likeable person. Everyone in the hall approves and he's nice and friendly and does charity work and is so proactive.
Ehh, I wish I had motivation to do anything.
I blame Firefox.

The college ball was this Saturday just been. It was nice.


I managed to get sunburnt yesterday sitting around on the foreshore. It was nice, spent many hours drinking and just being social and outside in general.

I am so incredibly keen for The Lion King. There's a whole swag of facebook pages going around and people posting the songs. 10 days and counting. This is making me feel less betrayed by Firefox.

I'll try to do this more often.
That is all.

BREAK cont.

I'm now cooler than you...

Nothing truly noteworthy, apart from the fact that I should be at Oh Snap tonight, but I'm way too hungover and it's all rainy and thundery. So I'm gonna curl up in bed after I've done this and read.
Oh, I got my results back from first semester. Two high distinctions and two distinctions. Win!
Oh Snap is incredible, been there for the last 4 weeks now. So much fun.
Been watching skins, almost finished all 5 seasons. Cassie is the greatest character ever.


HARRY POTTER! Midnight screening with Hannah. It was a kind of spur of the moment thing. I spent almost two whole days of my life catching up to be ready for it. And then I was like omg Hannah lets go tonight, and got our tickets and everything. I shed a tear at only 2 points.
SPOILER ALERT (although shame on you if you haven't read the book)
When Fred and George are having a conversation before the big battle starts and I'm like :'( they're never gonna talk to each other again...
And then the bit at the end when the theme music came up I was like pfft, they just want you to cry now and refrained from bawling my eyes out.
It's so sad. It's like symbolic of my childhood ending. I was always jealous of Emmette for being the same age as Harry when the first book came out.

I went home on Monday, the parentals got a new car. It's real nice. Our dog Snug is looking quite sickly, and sneezes and coughs a lot. Poor thing, she's ten now.


So that's all I've been doing really. Quite sad. Bioshock is amazing...
Went out last night and hit up the gay bars with Megan from down the hall. Very much fun... Does that even make sense?

argh, that is all...

BREAK

Till the 1st of August I have nothing to do.
I've finished my Resume and I'll half-heartedly search for a job around.
I went home for a week which was very nice :)
Wandered Bunbury with Allyssa and got drunk on a Monday with Cale.
Just had a relaxing time in general.

I now have Twitter (don't know how to use it) and Tumblr (DO know how to use it)
http://twitter.com/#!/JustHarleyRose (I think, I don't know how it works)
http://harley-rose.tumblr.com/
Not that you care really.

Not much has been happening, I've rarely left my room.
Oh, I went to Oh Snap on Thursday, I forgot how good it was. But that's been it really.

I've been playing Dragon Age and...omg Bioshock just finished downloading. F yeah!
I finished Fable III. I don't really have any desire to do it again, but be a tyrant instead. It was pretty disappointing overall.

Results come out on July 18th for my units. Hopefully did okay.

Been catching up on my horror movies, watched The Shining and The Loved Ones. Soon to be more.


I'm doing a 21 day challenge. It takes 21 days to break a habit apparently and I'm doing a whole 'not complaining' thing (as I've realized I complain quite a lot).
I haven't really been keeping check, so I thought I'd just start again. Starting tomorrow. So I have to keep those bands on the same wrist for 21 days. Every time I complain I have to switch wrists.

That is all...

Exams

Yes it it like 5am and I have been awake for over an hour now.
I went to bed at like 7 last night, like a nanna.
I'm totally okay with that, that means I've got more of today to do things...Like this.

Had my chemistry exam yesterday, it went alright.
Got one tomorrow, then one the day after. And then one on Monday. Still not too stressed, except for economics, ergh. Stupid essays.

The internet is fast this early in the morning.


Have I told you about Tom Milsom? He makes me want to hug kittens. I've been listening to his music for about a week now.
Why can't I find a guy that's musical, shy and relatively attractive.

Oli and I went for another run last Thursday. Ehh, so hard to get fit.

That's about it really. I didn't go outside for 5 days. I was totally okay with that though.




That is all...

You Hold Me Down

You're the echoes of my everything,
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You're the laziness of afternoon,
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom.
You're the leaky sink of sentiment,
You're the failed attempts I never could forget.
Oh dear, Motion City Soundtrack puts me in such a depressed mood. I love it


"Hows life Harley?" you probably aren't asking but I'll inform you anyway.

Exams... First one in one week one day 23 hours and 15 minutes. But who's counting?

No but seriously, I'm not that stressed out. I don't get too stressed out about anything really. Apart from social interactions and when assignments are due the next day that I haven't started. But even then.

Life has been fucking swell...Still. Just come off a four day drinking bender which went from Wednesday to Sunday. So many great memories. So many missing hours of my memory. So many things I've been told which I wish I remember doing. "You're faster than I thought""That's what she said"
Being a veloceraptor and generally not caring what other people thought of us on the d floor.

Studying is going great. I actually am loving chemistry. Maybe I should have done a maths major. I love maths and puzzles and shit like that. Feels good when you spend like half an hour on a question and get it. But equally as frustrating when you don't. Should probably start on another subject soon.

I've decided I like the sound of traffic up here, it's comforting to know you're not alone in the world. At home you can hear the silence and for all I know I could be the last person alive in the world laying in my bed. The sound of ambulances that pass by frequently remind me that no matter how shit my day has been someone is having a worse day and to be thankful I'm actually okay...

Oh, and last Friday Clare and I went to see Frenzal Rhomb. So good. We were right up the front. Like you couldn't be closer and the Doctor kept getting offstage and was playing his epic guitar like 30cm away from my face. He was loving us and came down for a picture afterwards. Clare got the set list and I got his pick. Win!
They were amazing live as well, but some utter dickheads were in the crowd and fucked round getting on stage and shit. Well disappointing.

I went for a run with Oli on Wednesday. It was great, I was actually hell proud of how far we ran. But I'm still a bit sore from it.

Haha, I just realized how much I swear. Do I do this all the time?
Probably should get back to study aka I've run out of things to talk about...
