So it's been a week since my last post. It would've been a longer hiatus, if it weren't for Jay and Katy (*salutes them*), and the fact that classes start tomorrow and so everyone's been given a day off to sober up.

And since I cannot pinpoint anything specific (the brain's still a bit sluggish...might be withdrawal symptoms), I'm just gonna give you random tidbits. Unless you'd rather I give you a minute-by-minute account of making my own bed for the first time (and that's a whole lot of minutes, my friend).

__________________________________________________________


I'm going to start a toilet rating system soon. Over the past couple of weeks, I've gotten to know some pretty well...too well, as certain people have pointed out after having to forcibly separate us. Points will be awarded for proximity, ease of access, comfort (e.g. bathmats = gentler on the knees), hygiene, availability of tissue/toilet paper, and traffic.

__________________________________________________________


Spiders are not your friends here. And you should always check the walls and toilet before you drop your pants.

__________________________________________________________


I wake up with a fresh bruise every morning. And I don't know how I get them.

__________________________________________________________


The washing machines and dryers should be clearly marked as such. Really, you can't blame first-timers for loading washing powder into the dryer.

__________________________________________________________


One annoying thing about being a small female in a land of rugby lads is that I tend to get treated like a stuffed toy. I've lost count of the number of times I've been picked up (literally), and tossed over a shoulder or carried around like a kid. And it's not like I can run away, since they have the advantage of longer legs. Granted, it's nice to be carried to my room when I'm too pissed lazy to walk. But dammit, drunk guys are not the best at judging spatial distance! Those walls/doorframes/pillars/tree branches hurt!!

__________________________________________________________


The on-campus accommodation's got a good location. Just a four-minute walk from the supermarket and pub. Which means that at the pub's closing time (midnight, can you believe it?! Aussie slackers...), there're always a number of shopping trolleys lying around, waiting to cart intoxicated people home. The important thing to remember is not to let an equally intoxicated person do the carting. It's a good thing there was grass at the bottom of the slope when Paddy decided to push me home one day.

__________________________________________________________


Actually, I think I have a pretty good idea of where these bruises came from.

She's alive!
My best friend at university worked behind the bar. I couldn't work out why I was permanently hungover and unable to stay awake in the afternoons until she revealed that every time I asked for a vodka and orange at lunchtime she was giving me at least a double.

Rugby lads. Rugby lads. Lemme stop hyperventilating for a while. I am so visiting you. Pick out a few for me, won'tcha? I remember OZ boys. They are good. Paul

goddamn, you make me turn green with jealousy. i need to party hard once i'm done with whatever i'm doing. i had to turn one down on saturday. damn!

How the heck did you manage to confuse the dryer with the washing machine?! The dryer doesn't have a drawer-type compartment thingy to put the detergent in!! At least the dryers I've used didnt ...

G'day lassie!
Hey Lady! Great to see u updating again. Well, hope to see u online in msn soon cos I'm gonna send you the photos we took on my last nite in KV. Do drp me a mail soon! Cheers!
» Jeffrey (165.21.21.38) on 2006-02-26 06:55:16

I also want to get manhandled by Aussie rugby players! Get bruises also never mind (in fact one or two in the right places, like the sphincter, would be quite welcome).
» Jay (82.69.108.126) on 2006-02-26 08:06:53

Katy: A vodka and orange at lunchtime...you do start early. :D Well, I'm thinking of taking a bartending course here, so if ever you order a drink from me, I promise to give you at least a double.

Paul: Well, I do have spare couches in the living room. ;) Mmm, but right now I've got my eye on a soccer guy. Choices choices...tsk tsk.

bUttsH4k3r: Why'd you have to turn it down? Pile of dirty dishes in the sink? (MUAHAHAHA, ok, I'll stop the Janitor jokes soon.)

Rae: Not here they don't. For the washing machines here, you chuck the powder in with the clothes. So the only difference is one's a front-loader and the other's a top-loader. :(

Jeffrey: Mmm yes, KV nights are fun, aren't they? Lol, especially when you've got a case of Smirnoff waiting under the table and more in the fridge. Thanks for those again!

Jay: You already get manhandling on tap from a half-Scotsman! Leave some for the rest of us!
» theZEBRA on 2006-02-26 10:14:26

bah.. couldn't be bothered to read this! just here to say that I'm glab you are far away from me! Why you ask? Because i don't have to entertain you anymore when you try to come over and stay a night without firstly informing me like 7 days ahead! muah hahahhaha!
» jase (130.220.79.99) on 2006-02-26 10:47:36

The Smirnoff is jst a small token of appreciation for ur flat to acknowledge me as one of you. Dun forget to link me to your blog k, Pretty Lady? Put me as the Crazy Lone Ranger... :p
» Jeffrey (165.21.21.38) on 2006-02-26 11:05:07

just. you. wait. i'll soon get horrendously intoxicated and wake up having more bruises you had. i'll thrash the washing machine while drunk too, so i'll never get anymore janitor jokes from you!
» bUttsH4k3r (62.252.224.16) on 2006-02-27 09:17:28

I am considerably more restrained these days. I have straight orange at lunchtime and save the vodka for the evening. I find I am more efficient during the day that way...
» Katy Newton (62.253.64.16) on 2006-02-28 05:16:41

Add me on MSN, woman! My hotmail contact is listed on my blog.
» Laynie (219.95.155.112) on 2006-02-28 07:27:48

jase: HAHAHA, but I may make a short trip to Adelaide during the winter break just to annoy you! And rest assured, if I do, I WILL insist on staying over without any notice! BWAHAHAHA!

Jeffrey: Ok, Lone Ranger, here's hoping you come down in July and that I'll be here as well.

buttsH4k3r: Hmmm...at least I've got an idea of where those bruises came from. Wouldn't you be just a little bit worried if you woke up with a massive hangover, no memory of what happened the night before, and bruises all over your body, especially around a certain area? Muahaha!

Katy: Not if I'm the one pouring your drink at lunchtime. ;)

Laynie: So's mine! *Clicks to add her anyway*
» theZEBRA on 2006-02-28 11:43:52

you can stay in freddy's or mindy's room! cause if you come into mine you can be sure that i will not be generous with my fist in your face!
» jase (60.231.195.42) on 2006-03-01 02:31:19

Ahhhhh. Now I see it. Well, thanks for adding me anyway :P
» Laynie (218.208.219.82) on 2006-03-01 05:19:21

Jase: Aww, we both know you'll be a sweetie pie. You'll be setting up the spare mattress for me like always.

Laynie: No problem. :)
» theZEBRA on 2006-03-02 10:38:33

Having fun, are we? don't drink too much, yeah?
» KE (219.95.135.33) on 2006-03-05 01:08:07

KE: Wokay dokay. I've limited myself to only Weds, Fris and Sats now that classes have started.
