What's everyone up to?

My football team potentially has its final match today. If they win, they go into the Grand Final...I'm not going to think about what happens if they lose. It's going to be a close game. The other team got a week off last weekend, so they're all well relaxed. I hope that means they're less prepared...Cheer for the Roosters in 8 hours!

Thinking about the labour market is depressing. I'll probably earn 10% more to start of hourly with my degree compared to what i earn now without a degree.
When companies say the want well rounded people. Its bullshit. They really want the A+ ones who don't really do much other than study.
On a different note I hope everyone has nice weekend.
Got a 21st and loads of readings to do.

Just returned home, I went out with my friends! After 4 hours of extra studying sessions...

Regarding the drinking age (well, this might be a little irrelevant... xD) here, in Greece, the legal age is 18. But I've been drinking since I was 14 (ok, not much. ) It's just that noone is here to stop you. Everyone can buy. Even a ten year old.

Doing lots of uni work today. It's annoying, because the weather today was supposed to be really good, and I'm stuck inside doing essays...but it's actually turned out to be a so-so day, so I'm not missing much.
Very excited though, my football team won (32-6! We smashed them) So we're in the Grand Final next weekend. My dad was really happy. We came last in 2009 and now we have the chance to win the comp this year! We don't know who we're playing yet, lol...the qualifying game is tonight...but it doesn't matter, because we made it.

About to leave for Uproar fest I'm very very excited. Stone Sour, Halestorm, A7X, and Disturbed! woooo

It's been raining all day, so I did pretty much nothing, besides studying. Stupid weather...

Went to my cousin's daughter's naming ceremony today and a small party after, it was a great day with the weather and great to see the family again. My uncle gave me a CD with 4 of my cousins miming to Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen when they were tiny and had no idea what they were doing lol. I'm now talking to a friend that doesn't speak Welsh and only knows a few words of it, and I gave her a short sentence in Welsh for her to have a go at translating it and she's not doing a very good job at it and it's very amusing to me Is that a tiny bit evil of me lol?

I finally watched the season 2 premier of Glee and I LOVED it. I absolutely love their version of Telephone and Empire State of Mind was AMAZING. And I don't like the original song so that says something. I can't wait for the Britney Spears episode tomorrow. I've already heard the songs on youtube but it should be an interesting episode.

Congrats Kim on your team winning and going to the final! My footbal team finally won a game yesterday (Sunday) so hopefully they'll do better this yr.

Yay on your football team winning Kim!

Sorry i've been MIA ya'll. I've been out and about with dad and doctors and shopping and doing things for the house. I was out all day today and came home to make Halloween goodie bags and do laundry. I am drained.

Anywho, we stopped at a store today ( b.j's its a wholesale store for anyone who doesn't know) and of course i walked over to the book table. They have one of my series I read ( ranger's apprentice ) so i grabbed book 4, 5 and 6 ( haven't read them yet) and also Shadowland ( i got book one and two of that series a few weeks ago). While going to the parking lot it started to rain a little heavy so i grabbed my books out of the cart and hugged them so they wouldn't get wet. And my dad saw me and said " oh yeah, protect your books. As long as THEY don't get wet. The food doesn't matter"... lol. I was like "glad you understand dad!" . Tehehe. He bought the books for me which i'm way grateful for. I compiled a list of books to series that are coming out soon that I want pre-order. The total is 40 bucks which isn;t too bad but still kind of a lot of money. So i was happy my dad bought these books for me cause i still have money to pre-order my series books.

That was nice of your Dad to buy you some books Tasha. And $40 for books isn't bad at all.

I have finished reading the series I was on. It has made my top 5 fav series. Now I'm waiting for book 9 to come out in Feb. So I'm back to being bored. I feel kinda lost without reading this series. I spent 3 weeks reading the last 6 books in the series and it just feels weird not reading it. I suppose thats how it is when you read a whole series in a row and you become attached to it. I got a reply from the author on facebook when I asked her if the 9th book Pale Demon was the last or if there will be more books. She said that she has planned a total of 12 or 13. So I'm excited for that. Now I'm just rambling. Can't you tell I'm bored? I've caught up on all my shows and waiting for One Tree Hill. Glee is on at the same time but I'll record that and watch it tomorrow. In the mean time I am just sitting here listening to Paramore and singing. Ok enough rambling from me tonight...

It's a rainy rainy day today. We've got a tropical depression coming through today and the weather feels really good outside right now. Plus I had a yummy iced caramel macchiato coffee and an bacon egg and cheese bagel this morning so I'm a happy person today. Well at least for now I am

Tomorrow (Sept. 30th) is my Husband's and my 5th Wedding Anniversary. It feels like we've been married for 10 yrs not 5. And thats a good thing. We've been through hell and back and have finally figured out how to do it. It takes lots of communication and compromises from both people. Back in 2007 we came close to getting divorced but we talked and decided to try and work it out and now we are honestly happier than ever. It took a super long time for me to fully open up and let my husband in and trust him. And I'm glad I did. He's my best friend. I can go to him about anything and even though he doesn't understand me most of the time he's always there. I'm a lucky woman to have found such a wonderful man who works his ass off to take care of his family and allow me to stay home with the kids. And just to think I couldn't stand him when we first met lol Now I can't imagine my world without him

ok got all the mushyness out of my system lol

Awwww happy anniversary to u and ur hubby! Hope you have an awesome day.

Mushyness is totally allowed Wilda. Happy anniversary I'm very happy for you.

Had the best sleep last night, unlike the 2 before it. I think it was because I finally finished/handed in 2 essays and the essay for another class got extended a week, which made me really happy because I'm pretty much wasting my weekend this week. We've got a long weekend, so saturday I'm hanging out with friends in the city, sunday is the Footy Grand Final (and there's like 2 games being played before the main game so my dad and sister will want to turn up to all of them.) and then monday I've got a friend's 21st birthday party. So I'll feel less guilty for hardly doing any work knowing I have an extra week to get the essay finished.

Hope everyone's day is fabulous!

Thanks Tasha and Kim

Glad you got a good nights sleep Kim. It sounds like your going to have a fun weekend

It's such a beautiful day today. Not too hot and just cool enough that I have the air off and the windows open right now. Gonna turn up the music and clean the house here in a few.

I have been ill this week and was sick today, so I haven't eaten anything all day, so my dad is going to give me bread and butter later on.

I'm sad. My sister was supposed to be coming home today, but her car broke down, so now she's not coming home until tomorrow with my parents. The only good thing about this is that I was planning on decorating the house with Red-White-Blue streamers (football colours) so now I have more time to get that done. Going to do some uni work and then plait some streamers.

Same. Feeling awful. My mum diagnosed it as hay fever at first then it turned into a cold with the works. Made worse by the fact that I'm really behind with study.

My saturday plans just changed One of the friends I was supposed to be meeting is really sick, so she cancelled and the other has to travel on a train for over an hour so we decided it'd be better to reschedule, but it means I'll have to find something else to do tomorrow...I'll probably end up studying for half the day and when my sister gets home we might go shopping...that'd be fun

Had an awful day. I realised that I hate all my classmates, my homework load for the next month increased, and bought contact lenses, but I can't wear them....

I don't know what I'll do on sat. I guess I'll spent the day trying to apply my lenses...

Sorry you had to change your plans Kim. Hope you ended up having a good time anyway.

Ela and L.Dragomir I hope you two get to feeling better soon.

Christy I'm sorry you um dislike all your classmates. Hope your school year gets better.

Aw, i hope all that are sicky, feel better ASAP!

And Christy, I hope things with your classmates lightening up. And good luck with the contact lenses. If it makes u feel better, i can't even apply eye drops to my eyes.... i just can't keep em open- i can only image trying to put lens in lol.

Hope you all have a good weekend. I'm slightly grumpy cause i woke up to have my morning cup of coffee and bowl of cereal, but someone got to the milk before i could. I mean seriously there was ALOT of milk last night and i just had a enough for a cup of tea ( i put milk in my tea, i've been told that's weird so i felt a need for this disclaimer lol). So, i'm a lil grumpy over that. Also, i want to shower and go outside for a bit but i have to wait for my brother to wake up and go shower because he's taking my dad out to play some lotto and bet on the horse racing. And my brother will have a hissy fit if he has to wait for the bathroom. I'm just avoiding all that confrontation.

Had a 21st last night. It was fun.
Spent this morning watching reruns.
Did some tutorial prep as well. Have to start a massive assignment tonight. Been putting it of for a few nights now.

The cooler weather is coming! The mornings are absolutely wonderful. Right now it is 63 degrees F. I've got the air off and the windows open. Too bad come 3pm it'll be in the high 80's. Can't wait until the highs are high 60's/low 70's. But for now at least the mornings are beautiful

Daylight savings started up again this week, and from the moment we changed our clocks the weather has been so freaking humid. It's ridiculous. Last week I was still considering wearing winter clothes, this week all my summer stuff seems too heavy/hot to wear. In a way it's nice, because I missed the hot weather, but I would have liked it to be a gradual change.

Sad news, my football team lost the final Been mourning for a few days now. Not cool. I've picked my last course for uni ever, a summer school course that lasts 7 days (over 3 weeks) so I should finish my degree on the 6th of December...very scary. Trying to do uni work at the moment, but I've managed to lose my course guide so I can't remember what reading I have to do...silly me. I had it on monday and now it's gone. It's the strangest thing.

Hope everyone's having a good week.

Its turning to be an intense semester for me. Really need a break. Still six weeks until freedom. At least if I'm thinking about uni I'm thinking about LS. Which will be less than a month away by the time I finish.

We had daylight savings 2 weeks ago and I got really hot and humind after but things have cooled down again. I hate it one day you need a thick hoodie the next a light cardi.
