| 0645hrs | Alarm goes off. Oh man...it's dark and it's chilly - sif I'm working today - I'm gonna sleep a bit longer... |
| 0650hrs | Ok I'm awake. I'm up. I get ready - eat some Weetbix - leave note for Mum to return 'The Ugly Truth' today. |
| 0715hrs | I leave by the back door and say 'hi' to Miffy. She's happy to see me. But I'll let Dad feed her later...it's too early. |
| 0725hrs | I'm on the road - there's a detour at Burwood Hwy/Elgar Rd intersection FYI |
| 0726hrs | Arrive on time. Meet today's staff - excited to see Carrie, Sarah, Cheryl, Jodie & Maggie - they all give me huggles (Y) (AND kisses - AHHH!) I put on my new IELTS lanyard - it's bright red. I want to keep it, but Jodie says we can't. Sadface. Jodie asks me how was my trip. I said it was good and I'd go back. We talk about my final year and she says "back to the coalmines eh?" Totes. Jodie is a qualified OT (Y). |
| 0730hrs | Sarah starts her typical pre-exam speech - wishes us a Happy New Year because yes, this is the first exam for the year! |
| 0740hrs | Setting up the room and what?! Wrong desk labels given to us pfftt - manage to swap with Maggie's room. Plus had to do a bit of furniture arranging as room was not set-up how it should have been. |
| 0800hrs | Registration commences alongside my fellow worker Jun Li. Amanda arrives on time to help out. |
| 0850hrs | Ready to start. Forty-two FOBS looking at me (With about two Indians) Or make that forty-three as Jun Li is clearly a fob. Uncomfortable, much? |
| 0900hrs | Dude complains he is sitting too close to the doorway and will be distracted by people going to the toilet. Deal with it! |
| 0915hrs | Listening test has started. Man I'm sleepy... |
| 1030hrs | Reading test - now I can have my break - Nom nom nom muesli bar...Now I'm writing a draft of what I am now typing :P That bored. |
| 1100hrs | Writing test starts - we're on the home stretch now...Amanda and I trade looks - we are both gone. |
| 1115hrs | Hey look, it's raining outside... |
| 1130hrs | Doing a few lower back rotation exercises - bit stiff down there |
| 1200hrs | Written stuff has ENDED! Woohoo. Now for some lunch - but wait I go to toilet and camwhore first. |
| 1215hrs | After much camwhoring in the toilet, I'm back at the staffroom. Discussion involves our ex-boss resigning from her recent job, my Vanuatu trip, meeting on Feb 1st and how IDP sucks. |
| 1300hrs | Oh hey, it's Tara. Such excitement. |
| 1400hrs | Need a neck massage desperately! |
| 1500hrs | Cheryl cannot stop making me laugh. She's talking about how she likes tennis. But moreso "back in the day" (I suggest 20 years, she scoffs and says 10 years), she picked up a hawt Swedish tennis player at the Open. LOL. A "bronze body" apparently. She was at the tennis with her then teenage daughter. This coming from a thereabouts menopausal overweight short-haired lady with glasses. |
| 1550hrs | Finished marking. Time to sign off my time sheet so I get paid. |
| 1555hrs | Enjoying chatting to Carrie & Sarah. I ask how Carrie's going since she went through a divorce last year - she says she's going to try take up a Cert IV course and still live at home with her mum 'cos she still hasn't finalised financial and property settlements. She's in her 40s. One word. Messy. Sigh. |
| 1600hrs | On the road back home. WHY is this wagon driving so slowly... |

It's been a fairly packed week or so IMO what with 21sts, Australian Open tennis, Temper Trap, double dating, late night eateries and such. So much so I haven't really had time to be a bum and then get bored of actual holidays. And also realise I have less than two weeks of summer holidays before my final year as a physiotherapy student starts. Though perhaps more than ever I am excited about these 5 weeks at uni before placements 'cos uni > placements. Working life does kinda suck. Though speaking about working - back at IELTS this Sat which is somewhat exciting. I'm not sure how I'm gonna wake up at 6.45am when everyday the past few weeks I've been sleeping in till about 12. Ha! I desperately need the $$$ though...
In other news, I'm still in love with Vagus, the name of my lappie, given by some nana guy. Anagrams are the way to the heart, so well done :) *Applaud*

I think uni friends are officially crazy. Well, Mel is. I didn't think her voice could go any higher but it actually can when she's had a few drinks of Soho/Vodka. And her squeals are on a different scale. Plus Taboo is AWESOME. I'll let the photos do the talking now.

The New Year
Monday, January 04, 2010 // 6:20 PM
1 mLs of sputum
So 2010 hasn't exactly started off wildly. I wish I could go back and relive the 2nd January a bit differently :P But watching cricket and tennis (more so to catch a glimpse of AS in the crowd) at home and lazying around with Miffy is OK by me 'cos I know I'll miss that come February 1st.
Plus, searching for a laptop to buy :) Liking this one for $1,199 with free mouse & carry case?
Might chuck in some new year resolutions whilst I'm at it:
i) To finish the year as a qualified physiotherapist
ii) To put into practice what I learnt overseas into this year
iii) To keep my close friends close
iv) To find boy interest(s)
v) Get a bit more active
vi) Get on MSN a bit more
And I shall end with this from Mother Ng: "Well you won't have any friends anymore, 'cos they're all dating." Ahem. Friends - don't entirely ditch me...entirely. ;)
