my arm hurts! :(
Feb. 9th, 2004 12:25 amwindge windge, bloody windge is what my trusty friend J would say to that! :) Lol! aaaah!
Well, the fact is this. My puter was playing funny buggers with me at 8.30 so I made the decision that I'd shut down after I finish downloading a song. So I got off and had a good chat to J and now I'm kinda back here!
I start Orientation week tomorrow and I have been a bit sqirmish, butterfliesh, etc. etc. and now my arm hurts. that stupid vein or artery or whatever which always causes that little bit of arm pain when I get nervous, especially upset and angry. Fortunately I have not much reason to be upset or angry tonight, just nervous! Guess I might be a bit upset and shocked with an email I snooped on but that's about all! JJ!
OK well I start classes on the 16th?! Wow, valentines day Saturday. Wonder if I will score this year?? I had absolutely no reason too in the past, but every year I must say there is a little ray of hope!
Well it's so hyped up. One turns on the radio, calls a friend, and can't get away from it! I have the majority of friends who have had at least one experience. *sob* Nah, my turn will come! But I was just saying to J before; always interesting to comtemplate, when, I open my front door, will there be a bunch of flowers and boxes of chocolates flying everywhere when I trip on them?! Lol ha yeah right Rachel; Keep on dreaming mate! Lol
ahem ... nah seriously I'm OK. I just remember that time last year I was in History and this woman came around and gave out bunches of flowers to certain ppl from partners!
I am happy to wait and see! Lol
OK well I said I'd write my timetable in here. Cos I can I will.
Monday 10.30 to 12.30 stories Cultures Tell Themselves.

1.30 to 4.30 .. Public Life Past And Present (yeahness ... not! politics :(
Wednesday off (catching up on work)
Thursday .. 9.30 to 12.30 Learning To Learn
1.30 to 3.30 .. word processing (don't have to do that one if I don't want too but I might learn advanced MS options. Will need to put Jaws on a puter though somehow)
Friday 11 to 1 .. Learning To Learn
1.30 to 3.30 Public Life Past and Present
so there it is! Orientation went well on the wednesday. I only did the one session. Everything is in my building which I am happy about - the DLO, Library, Capeteria, how easy!!
There are a lot of activities on this week which don't really appeal to me, so I probably won't go but tomorrow is compulsory as they explain all we need to know. and I think give us book lists, etc. I hope my DLO is back so I can hand it to her. Her office is on the same floor as the lecture theatre we'll be in, so will just check!
Thursday I had A over. As usual twas just great! Friday; what did I do?? Oh, think just stayed put here til about 4 when I left for parents. We had a roast, how nice! Oh, I had A and W over that day of course! We went to ForestHill to pancake parlour where stupid me got my card sucked in an ATM cos I couldn't remember my damn pin. so had to call to get another sent out! :( Gee I'm silly!
Yesterday and today did nofin! Oh, man I am forgetting things! I went to the Braille Forum discussing the UEBC etc. yeah yeah yeah. change is my enemy! stupid stupid stupid! How damn dare they change it all when I've learnt the former from a bub! do they do this to print? I don't think so!
I will not settle for anything less than braille this year!
Today was the day I did nothing! Twas true! I just mucked about on this puter all day. Watched American Idol whilst having tea tonight. I'd love to meet Paula Abduel! She sounds soo nice on there, and I love Rush Rush.
OK well, weirdo me just got on here but will be getting off now to actually go to bed!
Don't exactly have to leave til 12.15 tomorrow to get there at 1.30 but walking from Prahran station will be hard! I haven't done this new thing for three years! since I started at CAE. But yeah, i am looking forward to it, and of course meeting ne ppl/making friends is a big bit of excitement!
For every person that tells Heartly she's cute tomorrow is required too, well actually not tell her, but follow the instructions on her sign and place a chocolate in her bag I'll attach to her harness?! good plan yeah?! :) Lol
OK I must be tired now!
Night! :)
