While taking the bus this morning I started to feel that squirmy stomach, flighty-hearted, uncomfortable nervous feeling. Today has got to be one of the most busy days, just for the fact that I have so much to do. I have four hours of work training, a French listening test, Torts law moot and a criminal law [...]

A happier story
August 18, 2010 – 5:22 am
We had a small dictation exercise in French the other day which made me feel really sad. This is weird, because, you know, it’s a dictation, but this was the dictation (translation follows):
C’est une vielle fille qui n’a pas de famille,
Elle est australienne et vit dans une ville tranquille.
Elle travaille dans une centre d’accueil depuis vingt [...]
Hormones. WATCH ME COMPLAIN!
August 10, 2010 – 6:58 am
I’m in such a reckless mood. How many times have a started a blog post with that? Gosh. I really put this down to my hormones. I got an overpriced Green Tea Latte from Starbucks because I’m angry and want to hate the world. Well not really hate the world, but do something to rebel [...]

This maybe a few days old before it gets published to Facebook.
It was noted by Lud, one of my few diligent followers of this blog, that the last post was actually worth reading. Funny that. Seeing as I do want you to read what I write, I’m going to try my best to control quality. Ok, [...]
This may actually make this blog interesting.

I must be having an identity crisis. Either that or I’ve become hormonal to the point of frustration, and the frustration is at nothing. Well, that’s untrue. It’s a combination of things that can all cause or lead to an identity crisis. Or perhaps identity crisis is a bit much.
Anyway: I don’t feel like myself. [...]
Barcamp Auckland 4
July 16, 2010 – 10:05 pm
I actually haven’t had any sleep and now I’m trying to organise Bartenders to meet the needs of Barcampers while I feel like I’m in a dream, there’s a visual/audio lag. It just doesn’t match. Omg, and Heino’s gone wandering. Errgh. Wonder what it’s going to feel like after lunch. I might just crash. Um, [...]

This last week has been possibly the busiest I’ve been ever, and I LOVE IT!
So after my giant spazz last week going to Wellington a day early I had an awesome time at conference. My lack of voice is testament to that! Meet and made heaps of new friends and got heaps of stuff done [...]
it never fails to amaze me
June 30, 2010 – 12:55 am
It never fails to amaze me about how you can wake up expecting one thing to happen and spend the rest of your day doing something that you had never planned on.
It also never fails to amaze me at how retarded I am. I thought I had learnt from last time that I booked flights [...]

I finally have my European100 and Chinese200 exams which I’ve been studying two weeks for. Where was I going with this? Nowhere probably because let’s face it, this blog is just full of my average-shitty life where I only occasionally write something of interest, something worth noting. This time probably won’t be one of those [...]
