So, today marks the third day in a row i've been truanting from uni. To be honest, the first two days I skipped were due to a cold, and today I really just didn't feel like it. Apathy ftw.

Thinking of migrating over to Blogspot. I'm pretty sure everyone there is quivering in anticipation!

As a last-ditch attempt to weasel my way into 2nd year Law, I am taking an extra paper next semester, making my timetable a regular cornucopia of useless BA subjects - one of which I will have to major in if I don't get into Law (which is looking extremely likely). So bring on Law, English, Anthro, Linguistics and Politics!

Damn it, I really wanted that one free day in my week.

So yesterday I lost my house and car keys, meaning I couldn't go out last night. Also, upon destroying the house in a futile search for the aforementioned keys, I decided I would ask my friend who I had made plans with to pick me up, but realised my phone was missing too. In a second, more desperate search in which the house was further torn apart came to me a realisation of epic proportions. I had left my phone.. in my car.

It was EXCEPTIONALLY HYSTERICAL!

NOT looking forward to uni starting again. Well, they always say the first year is the most stressful one right? It's a good thing i've been moved up to Diazepam. All Oxazepam did after a few weeks was make me sleepy and completely emotionless, and also completely killed my libido (which ex-boyfriend was not happy about. But that's a story for another time, kids).



P.S - Still have not found keys.

First public entry in ages, brethren. Appreciate it.

Sinead is sleeping in my bed, and i'm exceptionally bored because it's 11:40pm and my usual sleeping hours fluctuate between 12 ~ 3am. So here I am!

Law: B+
English: A-
Logic/Computer Science: Let's not talk about that

This semester break has been exceptionally lovely, much of it having consisted of watching stupid movies, and scoring an obscene amount of free alcohol (most of which is consumed between the hours of 10am - 2pm, which is when Sinead works the bar). Also, I am still in that post-breakup haze where i'm undecided as to whether my loneliness is deriving from his relatively notable absence in my life or me just wanting someone (ANYONE) to snuggle with. He took it pretty well, better than other guys have in the past. Must not have liked me that much! Haha.

Well, this year has definitely been one of recriminations and mended bridges. Everything's looking pretty fantastic, except for the way my career path is headed - down the toilet. I mean, it would be alright if it was just my mark for law that counted, but fact is my overall GPA is shocking, which is pretty much what decides if I get into the second year or not. Muchas gracias LOGIC101, you merciless sociopathic fuckwank.

This break from uni is doing wonders, the frequency of my anxiety attacks is definitely lessening. Don't know whether to thank the Oxazepam or there not being a need to study. Also, I am turning into such a nana. Tonight me and Sinead decided not to go out because we wanted to stay in and watch Ratatouille, and yesterday we ditched plans to go to town because we felt so knackered after having a spa. When did we turn so boring? ..and i'm a bit sick of parties to be honest.

I Love You, Man was really good fun. The Hangover was good too, and Bruno was a bit of a lol. Listed in the order of which I enjoyed the most.

I will end this entry with a photo -



In the box is not a dildo or a bong, but a $500 Samurai sword, and of course I am the azn girl pulling the deviantly sexual pose.

Hope everyone that reads this has a great week, and tomorrow I will try not to get trolleyed before 12, can't promise before 1pm though.

P.S - Have been considering whether I should unlock my private entries, I don't think anyone reads this anyway. It will probably set off my paranoia though, hrm.

Also, my dad has friends over tonight and one of them is really good at singing and guitar. He did some pretty nifty versions of House of the Rising Sun and Tears in  Heaven..all's well until my Dad starts to sing along really drunkenly, and let me tell you. He is not fluent at english, nor is he particularly good at singing.

Don't know why I didn't just write everything in one long entry. Oh well. Here's some things I did last week in chronological order -

Monday - Nothing important?

Tuesday - St. Patricks day, hardly anyone at Uni was wearing green! I was in a pretty festive mood..wanted to stay around campus to have a few drinks but my only class that day ended before noon, and i'm a pretty impatient person. Ate some weird green food that night, and hung out with all da boiz. Me and L were over everything that happened (that I talked about four entries back) but things aren't completely resolved with L and S yet :/ There's always something preventing them from being all good with each other, argh.

Wednesday - Hung out with Sheena which is always fun. Had dinner with EJ at this fancy Japanese restaurant in town - it was so crowded, but a small sacrifice to pay for DELICIOUS FOOD. It was so nice, mm.

Thursday - Yet again, nothing comes to mind. Mondays and Thursdays are the days where my classes finish late so I probably just came home and crashed.

Friday - Went to Sinead's flat and had a really random night, which concluded in us watching Edward Scissorhands, which we have both wanted to watch for ages but never had the chance to. We both LOVED it, until the ending. That completely killed it for me. 8.5/10 before ending, 5/10 after.

Haha, we scared ourselves silly when I was about to leave, and we thought there had been a car accident outside..it was just a car alarm malfunctioning. I nearly pissed my pants though..I have no idea what we were so scared about. Oh, earlier that night me and Sinead successfully jumpstarted her car 'Old Reliable' by ourselves..we felt really manly and independent because our collective knowledge of cars totals nothing, pretty much.

Today - Drums/band practice for AGES, woke up so late so didn't have time to put on my chucks, and ended up drumming in my flats. Man, i'm gonna be feeling the blisters tomorrow. Started my english assignment then realised I have no chance of passing anything this year so stabbed myself with a butter knife. Somehow I survived and managed to crawl to the computer so I could write in Livejournal :)

OH MAN, I am really starting to dislike the general populace at Auckland University. Most of the first-years i've talked to are really pretentious elitists, and - it might just be my jealousy talking - rich dickheads (or just plain skanky as hell).

EXHIBIT A:
I met this girl in one of my tutorials..and she just..renders me speechless. Nah, kidding, I've still got plenty to say. Anyway, it's one thing to be a know-it-all in front of the tutor, but PLEASE, I could not give a shit about your analysis of the text we're studying and how you think it's so 'multifaceted' and blahblahblahi'msosmartsuckmycockwahwahwah. This girl is studying law and arts (like me) and as fate had it, I ended up sitting next to her in one of my lectures. She seriously wrote down EVERYTHING the lecturer said. Why not just buy a dictaphone? Are you really going to look over everything you wrote? Most of it is useless! She was even writing down the stuff that the lecturer was saying that was printed out on handouts and passed around to everyone.

When I asked her how she was finding the course she sniffed and remarked that 'Oh..everything's really easy, actually. I mean, you'd have to be really dumb to fail. How about you?' - to which I responded, 'Yeah, nah. I'm finding it really hard, actually. I'm probably not even going to make it to second semester. OH WELL!'

EXHIBIT B: A friend of a friend..where do I begin. I'll be straightforward here, my family is not the richest family in the world. This has its benefits..I am eligible for Student Allowance, which entitles me to $120 a week (which I don't have to pay back!). When I had the nerve to ask this girl if she got a loan or allowance for Uni, she looked really offended and was like 'Oh, no, no, no! Hahaha, definitely not. Isn't that just for really poor people?'

So I told her that I get the allowance and I don't mind if people think i'm poor because i'm still the one getting free money. Then me, her, and my friend walked to a different building and the WHOLE time she kept going, 'oh, i'm not eligible for that, but that's good for you, you're getting free money. Yeah, my parents earn like a ton so i'm not eligible for that free money thing. My mum owns like two thousand brothels in South America so i'm not eligible for that, also I get free pedicures from transvestites - did I mention that because i'm so rich i'm not eligible for your poor people charity sponsorship?'

Then apparently I completely lost any semblance of intelligence and carried on the conversation by asking where she got her bag. She told me that she got it in Australia for $500, so you can't find it in New Zealand..but I can get a really cheap bargain knock-off for half price!

WHAT THE FUCK, $200+ IS NOT CHEAP ALRIGHT. STOP RUBBING IT IN MY FACE THAT YOU'RE RICH AND I'M NOT. OBVIOUSLY I DON'T HAVE MONEY LIKE THAT TO THROW AROUND.

EXHIBIT C: Every East Aucklander's reaction when you tell them you are from South Auckland: 'OMG isn't that like the ghetto! Don't you get raped and murdered every day?' It irks me so much for so many reasons..it's kind of ironic, because I grew up in the Eastern suburbs until I was 12, and then moved to Rewa. So I probably would have turned out snobby as if I had stayed there, which I am insanely glad that I didn't - living in South Auckland has made me way more open-minded. Also, South Auckland is not even that bad, there are only a few areas that I would go out of my way to avoid.

How could these people be so oblivious? I thought I was going to go to Uni and make all these great friends with the same interests as me, and study the things I love, but all that's happening is i'm burning a candle at both ends and surrounding myself 5 out of 7 days of the week with people I really don't like. And it's only been three weeks.

P.S - I wish 4chan and /b/ would hurry up and die. It is, to be succinct, the asshole of the internet. I mean, there are hardly any genuinely funny memes anymore.

You know that feeling you get after stepping off a ferry? When you're walking around and you feel disorientated, like you're still on it? I get that EVERY day after getting off the train.. it comes and goes. I'm getting it right now actually.

It's pretty annoying.

I was having lunch with Sheena yesterday, and we were talking about something extremely important that I can't remember at this present moment in time. Okay, it wasn't important. During our extremely deep and meaningful conversation I was thinking about my flailing love life, the need to empty my bladder, and the fact that I didn't know where the bathroom was. This whole thought process culminated in me telling my friend - "Okay..i'm going upstairs to look for a boyfriend -- I mean BATHROOM (holyshitihopenooneheardme)"

I mean, seriously. That word just came out so naturally, i'm so pitiful ugh. Needless to say, she cracked up for aaaages and of course I laughed too. Because what's funnier than embarrassing freudian slips?

I can't believe it's only halfway through the second week of university and my brain has already turned to sludge. How am I supposed to keep this up for a possible additional four years?! Sheet.

Back to studying. Something noteworthy is the fact that 10% of my grade for my English course consists of questions such  as - 'In Horton Hears a Who, the main character is an Elephant. What are the other animals featured in this text?'

Can't say the same about Law.

The clouds are really hair-raising tonight..wish I could say awe-inspiring, but in my current state of mind I don't think even the Dalai Lama walking in through the door proclaiming World Peace would stir me from my braindead condition.

I got a Toshiba L300. Not terribly impressive so far, but it does the job. WELL ACTUALLY, to be more honest, I am headed towards the opinion that it is a sack of shit. But that's what you get when you purchase a laptop for < $1000!

Still having trouble finding my way around the Auckland University campus but hopefully that will change soon. My timetable is blindingly ridiculous. I take Law from 10 - 11am, then it appears I have nothing to do until 4pm, my English lecture. That was moronic planning on my part. Like, really stupid. Like, so stupid I want to stick my head out the window and say 'HEY WORLD GUESS WHAT I'M STUPID HURR DURR PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE IT'

Yep. So if you folks want to acknowledge my general stupidity the past few days, GO FOR YOUR LIFE.

So, i'm going to start bringing back the capital letters.

Doesn't feel natural yet, but hopefully that will change over time. Maybe I will revert back to my shameless lowercapsnessity in my next entry.. I hope the suspense doesn't kill you guys! Seriously. I mean, if you were really desperate to see my next entry you need to get out more.

I'm starting Uni next week :/ Hopefully I will make some friends, but even if I don't it's fine because I already have great friends anyway. 




WHO AM I KIDDING, if I don't make friends at Uni i'm going to join a convent. Hopefully one where there will be sexy Priests who have come-hither eyes. I mean, not come-hither eyes like 'come hither and let me read you scriptures about mountains and suckling babies', but 'come hither and we shall reach spiritual enlightenment together as one body and soul'. NICE.

Yeah, i'm totally kidding..there is nothing sexy about Priests.

just a few random thoughts..

m.i.a is a BAMF

psycho!christian bale has infiltrated the internet and now i can't go anywhere without seeing the words 'IT"S FUCKING DISTRAAAACTING' and  'OHHHHH GOOD'

it's never good to run downhill for ages, because you forget you have to run back uphill FOR AGES and then die




maybe next time i will write something worthwhile, or MAYBE i will channel some kierkegaard and you guys will be so blown away by my existentialist theories that you will all take up philosophy majors and watch i heart huckabees with me on repeat until we pass out from lack of sleep
