I was just looking up a whereis map and then copying it to put routes over the top of it (to work out how to ride there in the morning) when I realised, Camberwell isn't the closest station to me and I'm riding completely too far! (but still will ride too far because I don't really know this station well). Take a look for yourselves!

back to uni it is...
I've been back for a whole week and I am exhausted.

I have four days of classes a week,
one hour monday
three hours tuesday
day off wednesday
five hours thursday
three hours friday

and then I've been working as well.
last week I did
monday 12 til 4 sapore (4:30 - 5:30 lecture in between) and 5:30 til 10 spudbar
tuesday day off
wednesday 12 til 5 sapore and 5:30 til 10 spudbar
thursday 5:30 til 10 spudbar
friday 5 til 8 sapore

so that equals 12 hours work at cafe sapore and 13.5 hours work at spudbar

on friday Reece drove up and picked me and Tom up from the station/safeway, and drove us home. I then had to go to Sapore to work, so he stayed in Camberwell for a bit and then came in when I finished up. We both bought new shoes from the Converse shop at the DFO (they're awesome!) then went to Lord of the Fries for dinner. Then caught a train back to Camberwell and drove home. Stayed up for a bit then went to bed.

Woke up on Saturday and got ready, went to the Pixar exhibition at Federation Square. It was pretty awesome! We saw all the sketches and drawings and research and casts of figurines that have to be done to be able to make these amazing 3D films they make possible and realistic.

We walked around for a bit and looked at the shop upstairs with merchandise, then went to some burger place and I had a burger and we shared some chips. not the best burger I've ever tasted. =S
Then as we were walking out of Fed Square there was a street performer, on a UNICYCLE! I had to watch. He was pretty funny too. He juggled knives and yelled a lot.

Then we went and got a slurpee from 7-11, and caught a tram home. It was bloody freezing, Mum said it was raining in Geelong so the rain was coming. We got home and I packed my things and we drove home basically. Picked up Tom on the way and then had KFC, bummed around at Reece's and then got a taxi into town.

First stop was Chief's, where we found Matt, Hudgy and a few other people. Tom got me onto Frangelico and OJ, tastes like orange chocolate. awesome =D Watched the band we watched a few weeks previously, with the middle-age singer thinking she's still about 15. yuk. Pretty dodgy guitar playing, but oh well. We spent most of the time outside.

Then Jess & Beck (and Gerard) met us at Chiefs, and we headed to Bended. We sat ourselves down in a booth and Jess, Beck & me had a few rounds of Frangelico & OJ. Then Jess got us a round of fruit tingles, tooo purpley for me. =S Drank half anyway.

Next stop was KFC, yes again. Reece had a burger and I had his large chips. Leigh and Glenn met us there and we watched the drunken idiots and the massive amount of chicken bones on the floor. yuk.

Tom wanted a kebab so he went and got one of those while we waited at the taxi rank. Waited for about 20 minutes before we got a cab because the line was so long! Got back to Reece's, and Tom continued on to Lara. Got into bed and went to sleep straight away I was that exhausted.

Woke up this morning and got out of bed and ready to go to Jess's for a spa!! Went home to get my bathers and also petrol for Reece, then out there. Spa was awesome, nice and hot on a cold day! Then came home and cooked chicken risotto for dinner as well as Mum's soup and pies.

Sorted out my lecture notes and now I'm going to bed. I'm getting my couch tomorrow, and my computer fixed then training it up to Melbourne for my 4:30 lecture then back home. Back to another working week without Reece. Even longer this time...a fortnight... because I'll have to work the weekend at Spudbar.

Another bout of torture. See you when I'm alive and functioning properly again.

Work was fun. except for me being $76 out. I really don't know how that happened. I didn't have to give any $50s in change at all, and if it was a lot of money I counted it out aloud. So I rang Liz and we went through it together. I was so annoyed. It was a pretty quiet night, so that just ruined it.
I just got an email from her then too, telling me to be careful with change etc. Fair enough. I couldn't believe it was that much though. That's just insane.

Today was pretty boring. I slept until about 10:30, then bummed around and went into Camberwell to try and find that top from Jeans West, but then I realized Camberwell doesn't even have a Jeans West, Glenferrie does. So I went there, and they didn't have one in small. Then I went to Victoria Gardens and they had none at all. so damnit. But it was good cuz I had KFC =D Then I caught the tram back to Glenferrie station, (yes I didn't go to any classes, I just really couldn't be bothered using my brain today) then back to Camberwell and I bought a white/tan bra and another pair of bonds undies, green this time. Then to the supermarket to get some random shit. Then walked back home because the bus was going to take another half an hour...

It sounds like you had a pretty awesome day, back to school!!!! =D all that programming though....I guess you guys do it everyday, whereas at uni we do it like once a week so it really sucks. Oh and while I was at work I got a message from Glenn asking for Jess' number. I messaged her and said "hey so, glenn wants your number. yes or no??? ahh this is exciting!!" she wrote back saying "yeah, why not" and then about 20mins later asking what he said about her. I just replied saying "i'm at work i'll msg you tomorrow!" hahaha. =P

No other news really, Dad's coming up tomorrow to get parts of my bed, and he won't be able to get it fixed and back til the weekend so I'm going to be on the mattress on the floor for about a week which i don't mind! at least I still have the mattress.

I see you've been on the commenting rounds!! Haha Megan & Cassie were awesome. (is that her name?!) They're so funny. I cracked up when I saw Hulia written. hahahahha. It was a fun party apart from the me being cranky part of it. I really should have gotten my sleep before then. another sarah rule: get as much sleep as possible before hosting a party. =P

I've just been emailing Liz back, trying to think of reasons why I would have been so out. I don't know. I can't think of anything else that would have happened.

So I'm sitting here bored.

Reece was meant to come over after his enrolment, but he got there at 1:45 and I think it started at 1 and they ran him all over the place so he's not here yet. It's 3:55. He went and got a chair from Officeworks which is pretty kool, the old one is completely falling apart. He needs a new one badly! He sounds like he likes it so that's great =D

I got my external hard drive today, it works a dream. i love it!

I got a new laptop last week, so I have been transferring all my stuff and installing all the programs I had.
I just found DVDShrink, and it didn't work properly on my old laptop because it had a dual-layer dvd burner, and so does this one, but I decided to try it out. I don't know the outcome yet...

My sleeping patterns lately have been all over the place. I seem to be going to bed/sleep at around 2:30/3AM, and waking up near midday. crazy...

I found a new blog site, it's called wordpress.com. It's basically the same as VOX, I'm trying to figure out the differences..

I've been working weekends lately, I worked Tuesday night, Saturday night and Sunday morning last week, and this week it is Thursday night, Saturday night and Sunday morning.

Reece goes back to school on Monday. It will be a bit weird for both of us, we have been so used to seeing each other every day, and when I go back to uni in a month it's going to be even worse. I hate going back to uni purely because of the withdrawals we get! But I am excited to go back, to check out my new classes and meet some new people as well as catch up with all my old mates. I wonder what it's going to be like travelling to uni every day too. I'm so used to waking up and walking out the door to find I'm already there.

I've decided I'm going to get fit, and save for a car this year. That is my goal. I don't know how the get fit part is going to work, it might just fall over like a piece of shit, but I hope the saving goes well. I haven't saved anything at all yet, when my pay goes in tomorrow that's when I start. Oh! And I want to go to the Camberwell Market on a Sunday morning. That would be awesome. To see that car park packed full of stalls, I hope it's a good one. I want to go at least once this year!

I really need to clean my room!! Also my room in Camberwell, I need to buy some new sheets because I only have one set. Need to flip my mattress as well. It might start to sink!

That's all for now, nothing really new in my life. I'm going to the movies and lunch tomorrow with Beck & Shelley, and then Thursday working. I don't know what's happening after that. I can't think that far ahead!!
