Thursday seemed like a very good day to start studying hard and properly and like a proper student should… which meant one thing… PROCRASTINATION TIME! I am absolutely amazed at how much stuff I can get done when I’m meant to be doing something else.
So instead of I don’t know, going through my Asian Studies readings, I wrote my speech for Friday. I KNEW that I didn’t actually needed to write a speech because no one else was going to and it wasn’t a formal speechy thing. It was for a talk I was doing with Pippa, Abbey and Jason (all ex-BDSCers) about going to Auckland Uni… I was REALLY good at procrastination in this time because I spent 2 hours doing it and wrote more than an astounding 1000 words! YEAH! I should make procrastinating my part-time job.
Then I of course wasted more time by hanging out with Sian and Lud in Starbucks instead of going to Chinese… Yup. I’m a model student. Perfect to talk about Uni to the year 11s and year 12s at BDSC.
So on Friday went to talk at BDSC and I actually got a laugh outta the crowd
woot! And of course I didn’t use my speech word-for-word like I wrote it.
Saturday was my 5 HOURS MUST STUDY ASIAN STUDIES!!! But… of course I only did 2 and a half hours of really crap, really slow, not really real study… about nation-states in Korea and Indonesia…. RIVETTING STUFF!
I mean I DO have a vaild reason… Genie and I were at Botany (I needed to buy a pen and a new toothbrush) and Jono’s New Show was their… starting to set up their busking challenge thing. Cool, cool. Genie wondered out loud which NZ band was doing the busking today when we see the two guys from Autozamm chilling with the producer/director-lady by the fountain. “Oh my gosh!” said Genie. So then I convinced her to get her Autozamm Drama Queen that I got her for her birthday signed.
After running (Closer to) home and getting Docie to come along with us we got to Botany to find that they had already started filming. Genie’s one objective: DO NOT GET FILMED. After a very awkward dancing around the cameras we finally got Docie (with her cute baby face) to get their autographs. They thought that she just bought it then (as though she were a poser) and Docie had to pretend that her name was Genie. She said that they were really friendly and I totally reckon Genie shoulda gone to say hi BUT the cameras were still everywhere. They wrote: HELLO GENIE THANKS HEAPS, squiggle, squiggle. It was quite the adventure…
I was meant to do more study today and I did… until I needed the computer to get the readings for Asian… and then I checked my twitter … and my gmail… which of course led to facebook… need I say more?

Hey novy! omgosh havent talked to you in ages! sounds like you’ve been very busy procrastinating, if you need any tips dont forget i perfected it last year :p
I thought i would update you on what ive been up to lately, like i said i would ages ago lol.
I’ve been having the time of my life lately, working 6 days a week (was at the cafe for 12hours today, had to get up at 4am for a bloody function), going home and being stranded in hobsonville.
soooo tired right now.
The one thing I have been enjoying however is all the movies i’ve been buying/renting. Bought Singin’ In The Rain and Brigadoon the other week, to go alongside The Great Escape, West Side Story and The Sound of Music, im fully into movies from the 1950s/60s right now…..
Ooooo also, shelley and i are going to see Mark Watson (the comedian from the uk who is on always on Rove when he visits aussie) this saturday in town, quite excited about that….
was going to start planning to go down to christchurch to visit jono and do a south island roadtrip these hols. But im not now coz i realized that i need someone to drive me around and Matthew doesnt want to go down there and theres no one else with their full…well except henry but hes already done it so i doubt he will want to do it again.
yeah so that about it……..what an exciting life i have…..well of course i do have other stuff going on too, because of course im never allowed a quiet life.. always has to be filled with issues.
anyway, try not to be too hard on yourself, miss you,
love nessa
