Hail Damage
Uni is cancelled today. The kitchen is out of bounds for fear of electrocution, therefore I had to make use of the free facon and soy sausages being cooked in the courtyard for our benefit. Last night I made use of the vending machines.
My car has hail damage. I am not happy Jan. You can't get a RWC with hail damage, and although unlike the peeps from NSW I am not obligated to produce a pink slip on re-registration, I am still pissed off, because my car was in fantastic condition, with a cut and polish, all shiny and new and clean and had passed a comprehensive RACV test with flying colours.
Last night I was happy, because thanks to Dan's 21st and $2 spirits at Mooseheads, I was completely off my face (I have no tolerance...) when we were forced to wade back through the 10cm of hail, debris and deep puddles. Sam picked us up at IGA, and the car skidded along the ice while I was dying to go to the toilet. This was made worse by the fact that when we finally saw the turn off for ANU whilst squinting through the haze, we were told by police to find another route (he was NOT helpful..."my best advice would be to go back and find another way in" - thanks Captain Obvious...could you tell us where we can find an unflooded entrance?) and had to circle the uni.
The whole college had been evacuated into central block while our rooms flooded and the roof collapsed in D block (apparently). Living on the fourth floor of C block, I had the pleasure of watching my fellow lower-floor C-blockers go to bed while I lay under emergency blankets with some Germans and a bottle of goon waiting to be allowed back in.
I've heard that 60 ANU buildings are damaged, and I have no idea how I'm going to make up the tutes or the seminar that I'm missing today. So now I'm going to find out what everyone else is doing, because I can't sit around here all day.
I still miss you all, and I'm getting 2nd hand goss - you HAVE to keep me updated! I'll see you all at Easter. Please tell me how law/vet science/music/arts/medecine/psychology/commerce etc. is going, it's your first week this week right? (except for Fi)
