I need entertainment
Posted in General, University of Wollongong on March 13th, 2006Yet another day, yet another boring day. I’ve progressed all I can progress. I can’t do any more uni stuff until it’s met in the lectures. Oh well it’s better than falling behind. Anyway I cooked Satay Beef tonight it was so nice, I used one of those jar thingys and it tasted good. As you know our microwave broke down and we ‘will’ be getting one within this week. I doubt it…the cracked glass door got changed in 24hrs and our microwave will be on hold until further notice!
Dad is coming down soon to bring down a lot of stuff to make my life here just a bit more enjoyable. A TV and my bike most importantly. Now I can go for rides to places to explore the area without relying on Wollongong’s crappy transport system. Not to mention the exercise I would get out of it too. I remember myself telling me that I would try and get fit over the Christmas break. Well somehow it didn’t turn out as I tried to. I tried though, but I always got sidetracked and found ways to avoid it all together, and then tried to make up for it…usually too late.
Today, me, Matt, Gavin and Matt’s sis went to Hungry Jacks for lunch. We did go to Pizza Hut but there was no lunch works as it was being renovated. Always at the most inconvenient times. Same as the roadworks at the uni happening during peak hours. How dumb can people get?
Well I promised myself that I would make a change from Sunday (1st day of the week). And I’m going to try harder than before to make that change. I’m not telling anyone what I’m changing because that’s only for me to know
.
You know there’s one thing I really hate. People who annoy the hell out of me. They only hang around you if they want something or is forced to by an external force…lol. But seriously I hate being used, its happened too much but it’s because I want to make friends, and don’t want to give people bad impressions. I wish for once I could talk to people something besides work. It’s always work work work work work. If only there was more social groups here. I’d really like to make tennis a regular thing, like little social comps. But due to lack of funding apparently nothing is available.
Anyway I start uni at 8:30 tomorrow due to this crappy lab which I will probably be clueless again. So I better go. Might write something up tomorrow for myself to read again after I get out of my shell. Nite.
What to do with time?
Posted in General on March 12th, 2006“It’s 9 o’clock on a Saturday…”, well actually its 11:21pm. SUNDAY.
Billy Joel fans there’s your first and last thrill.
Anyway, I haven’t done much this weekend. Pretty much up-to-date with my work. I got out my backup Dvds just then and began looking at all the photos I’ve taken since I got a digicam. I even saw movies of my brother talking, and I swear I couldn’t recognise him. His voice changed so much. The photos bring back so many memories of last year and the previous years.
Now that I’m on campus, I sit here and think…Damn I need more friends! Sounds funny but it’s true. Come to think of it I have more aquaintances than friends. Friends are people who stand by you, know things about you and actually talk to you about stuff without using you. I guess after 2 years since finishing high school I prefer the close relationships between friends. Having had those close friendships being broken makes life hard.
Here I am just sitting in this room, no TV, no nothing. Just a computer connected to the Internet with ~120 or so MSN contacts who never really talk to you about anything interesting. I just hope my time will come, and I’m waiting…
Wollongong sux
Posted in General, University of Wollongong on March 4th, 2006I’m quite bored right now, I don’t have any ideas from this essay I have to write, although it’s not due until week 5, I’d like to get things out of the way. Nothing much has been happening recently, though I have been talking to my roomies lately. There are 4 of us all together living in this unit and it’s awesome.
They say that our unit is the tidiest in Kooloobong!
Wollongong city shopping is really really bad, especially when I lived in Sydney for all of last year, the variety of stores here is poor. Not to mention the amount of bogans laying around everywhere. I’ve only started to watch TV again and it’s wierd to see how the local news in South Coast news and not Albury…come back Albury news. Why can’t I watch whatever local news I want. That sucks.
I’m going to church tomorrow, getting some stuff for food during the week, might pop down to the beach to see the waves - after living with no beach most of my life and all. The only pitfall of living away from home is not having my piano and not having a social tennis group. They have no tennis groups at uni because of lack of funding. I find it hard to believe though by which the rate they charge for use of the courts per hour!!!
Anyway I better get a decent start on this essay, will try to post more often.
Bye.
