So, I'm sitting in my room, listening to the wind howling outside, and feeling likes it's time to document my time in Sydney so far, which, has been really great.
Starting backwards, Last night me and Bon got on the goon, in preparation for... Dr Phil. Yes, we went and saw Dr Phil live, in the flesh, in all his yankee glory, and he was amazing.
I have never been one for talk shows. Since moving here I swear Dr Phil and Oprah have become staples. And we even bought t-shirts saying "Dr Phil". I really want to wear it to uni one day.
I've been seeing alot of this new guy lately, and he's sort of been a staple at my house, after numerous sleepovers, and I can't seem to form any emotional ties to him. He's fantastic. Really nice, funny, approachable, and chatty. I mean, what more could you ask for? And yet his fatal flaw, is that he is chatty. I feel everything is so one sided. Sure, I am getting to know him great because he never shuts up. And he is really intelligent and insightful and has something to say about everything, but I'm beginning to see what my housemate already has - that he's a little too full of himself. Because he isn't really giving me any chance to share myself, I can't make myself be more interested. When I'm out with his friends though, or I'm drinking away from home, its completely different. They are all so great, and you can just tell he fits in so well there. Maybe it's having him in my comfort zone, so quickly and so often, that's putting me off a bit. This always seems to happen to me, I know how to pick them, I just don't know where to go from here. Is it worth trying a little longer? I don't know. Something is just a little off, and I don't like that he assumes I'm "so into him" already. That just isn't how it is.
Anyway after that little rant. Had my xmas in july housewarming, which was great. Got trashed and ended up at sneakers, and then ended up coming very close to throwing up out the front of maccas. They don't open the toilets till 6am, how stupid is that.
Uni is going heaps better, everything has worked out, and I feel so much more positive about the direction in which I'm heading.
I'm loving Sydney, loving my new found independance having my own place, and loving the place itself. Life really, is not too shabby at all.
So, thats where I'm currently at. Me Bon Axel and Simon are going to some Drum & Bass thing tomorrow at Manning Bar, which should be intersting. Not my thing, in the slightest, but I'm open to something new.

sydney, I love you.
So, it's been two weeks since I moved to Sydney and I'm loving it.
I got on college, and it's insane. I think I've drank almost every night for 2 weeks, can't be doing anything good but it's all good fun.
My lectures started yesterday but I didn't go. I know, I'm lazy. But I was acutally sick.
I've caught up already anyhow, and it was good cos I had today off. So went and visited em in newtown, had lunch at sydney uni, met her boyfriend Marty whos fantastic and then went down to coogee to lay on the beach. It was a really top day.
Now I'm attempting to get ready for my "date" with a guy I met at sneakers last friday.
We ended up leaving there are 5am and heading to coogee and watching the sun rise. It was really nice. I'm surprised I followed anything up, and that I'm actually looking forward to this rather than making excuses why I cant meet up. which is what I normally do. So this is something completely new and out of the box for me so hopefully all goes well. I'm having a drink so calm my 'not' nerves so should be okay haha.
So, commencement dinner and to the cross on wednesday, start of session party at uni bar thursday, sneakers friday and the weekend to recover, I swear, sydney is the city that never sleeps.
Loving it.

Quickly, quickly
So as the title suggests, this is going to be a quick post as I have a little under 15 minutes to brush my teeth, get my stuff together and walk down to work.
So I got on campus. It's good to have somewhere to live but I'm not so happy about the arragements. And the fact that I'm not considered independant for another 3 months, despite earning over $25,000 in the required period. Centrelink do not make it easy. So, I need to work out a payment plan with my college as I'll be getting about $60 a week/fortnight as a depedendant. Considering my rent is $350, they needent bother, it hardly makes a dent. So, woeful money issues are weighing my 2 day countown till I move to Sydney.
Em moves tomorrow. Not to sure what craziness the weekend holds, with us all finally being down, but we'll see.
Ok, so I really am late now so that's all.

Woahh, Ahhh
Yes, as the title suggests I'm listening to muscles, getting psyched for NEVEREVERLAND!
Only 2 weeks to go! Can't wait. That also means 2 weeks to my birthday which is exciting.
So I'm working 7-4 today. I did not want to get up when my alarm went off, had a shocking sleep I was so restless. So tomorrow is C's birthday, unfortunetly I forgot to get her present yesterday in light of all the mayhem that is Christmas shopping (40 minutes to find a parking spot, anoying crowds and general unrest lead to us turning around and going home - empty handed) and so maybe I will be heading to the kings for some drinks if she decides to go out.
Thursday me and Bon are heading back to Sydney so I can have a little visit and generally wreak the normal havoc we do when thrown together ;)
Let you know how it goes.
