Dear blag,

The rest of my shit from Sitka arrived today, including my computer. Unfortunately, USPS fucked up my hard drive somehow. God damn it I even wrote the word "COMPUTER" in like 10cm capitals in like 5 different places on the box. So now I've gotta try doing a repair install of XP, 'cause it says there's a .dll file missing or corrupted.

In other news though I have my amp, and it's all hooked up. Gonna plug my gee-tar in and WAAAAAIL.

Love,
Me!

Dear blog thread,

So I'm looking for a job right now, without much success. Since graduating I've just been hanging out and partying and spending too much time online. I've been looking for a few weeks for a job in my industry for the year before I go back to do my Masters next year. As I'm still living at home, things are not too tough money wise, but though I can go out whenever I want, I feel bad because I should be concentrating on getting a job. But it's not like I can look at job ads all day, there's not enough of them!

Since my mum is in Human Resources, she's mentored everyone I know on job hunting and careers, except me. I think it's because we annoy each other, and she wants to give me space. I get the feeling she thinks I'm incapable and she's really critical. So I avoid talking to my parents about it. I go out weeknights and some weekends and spend the rest of the time moping around on the internet playing flash games while all my friends are working.

Please dream job, come soon or I'm going to go stir crazy! I hate being at home all the time, it makes me lethargic and bored and moody. I'm a top student and I work really hard I promise I'll do anything. For any money! Just give me something to do!

I am doing organising for events on a national scale in April, so that involves having initiative and stuff, but it's kind of hard to because I'm so lethargic. But basically that is all that's keeping me going! And right now I'm doing all by myself, which kinda sucks.

Anyway, if you got through that, chat with me online, I'M BORED. MOPE MOPE.



Edit: This is a great post >>

I am going down to the used bookstore and picking up The Grapes of Wrath because I got a quarter of the way through that then left it behind in Ontario and also I'm picking up Sanctuary because my friend said she is studying it in an english class and it reminder her of me for some reason. I will read those books at the cafe that is only open till 5PM and I will knit as well. I will eat fried rice for supper and drink wine and think deep thoughts about existence because life is beautiful and meaningful if so we make it.

I went, tripped, punched cones,  played Donkey Kong Country 2 and watched Human Giant. Had a grand olde time, no real "come-down" to speak of, felt better in the morning than I do even if I only had two beers.

I think I could get used to this lark. (to be fair I'm pretty sure it was a weak hit because most of the time I just felt like I was really super-stoned with only a few hallucinations every now and then)

Plus, had a really great time catching up with a friend who I hadn't seen since I was like 19, yet still have more in common with than most of the friends I see all the time.

EDIT to clarify: For the record this is the first time I had done acid

Lunchbox:
I live in a house with ViolentDove now! We had a party last night which was pretty successful! Also today we tried introducing my cat to his housemate's dog and it went as well as it could. They just sat there quietly staring at each other and shaking which was pretty funny and cute.
I don't have any furniture till Wednesday and I have no money at all until next weekend but it is all okay. Hooray!

Inlander:
Last night I went to a party at the house of some of the first Melbourne Friends I made when I moved down here. I've been to plenty of parties at that house but this was the most enjoyable one, partly because it was mostly populated by people I hadn't met a dozen or so times before at those previous parties. Some time into the night talk turned to possibly decamping to a warehouse party happening nearby, and after an hour or so of people talking about going there (and steadily getting drunker and drunker) some of us finally set off. Things took a bad turn pretty much straight away with some drunken falling off bicycles that spiraled into relationship melodrama between the girl who'd been the prime mover behind the "let's go to the warehouse party" scheme  (the warehouse party was being hosted by a friend of hers) and her (very drunk) girlfriend. Girl 1 marched off in the direction of the party with myself and a really nice Scottish guy I'd met a couple of times previously in tow (because she was getting stoppy and shouting at everyone to follow her) while a couple of other people stayed behind to try to get Girl 1's very drunk girlfriend into a taxi home. A couple of blocks down the street my party stumbled upon some house party, so Girl 1 and the Scottish being drunk, went in to check it out, while me, being sober and inclined to think that crashing someone's party is Uncool, stayed outside under pretence of waiting to see if the others were following.

After about ten or fifteen minutes I got fed up and decided to head home, but then Girl 1 and the Scottish guy re-emerged and we continued our trek towards the Warehouse party. By now it was past 2 in the morning.

Well, this being a scheme instigated by a drunk person, it will come as no surprise to any of you to learn that the warehouse party was much further away than previously suggested. After a very slow walk with lots of stops for drunken phone calls and random drunken conversations (and drunken alley urination) we finally got to the warehouse party just before 3 in the morning. The others arrived literally about 5 minutes after us, despite the fact that we had at least half an hour's head start on them. The warehouse party itself was pretty cool, but I really wanted to get home so I could at least try to get into bed before 4 in the morning, especially because I've been having a little trouble getting to sleep recently, so I only stayed at the party for about ten minutes before hailing a taxi.

I eventually got to sleep probably some time around 5, and got about 5 hours sleep which is much less than my usual, luxurious 8-9 hours, so I was pretty groggy all today. I had a nice nap around 6 this evening which perked me up no end, plus lots of chocolate and tea and coffee because (standard fuggy Sunday diet) and I baked some bread (yum!), and then tonight because it's such a lovely night (around 25 degrees C and still and full of crickets singing) I went for a bike-ride for about an hour along a bike path that follows one of Melbourne's suburban train lines. I found a tram depot! Which was pretty cool. Then I got home and found out that the Butterfly Effect with Ashton Kutcher was just about to start (and everyone knows that trashy genre movies are the best thing on a sleep Sunday night) so now I'm watching that. Then tomorrow I get to say in all morning watching the Superbowl and indulging myself with coffee and almond croissants!

Good weekend.
