Turns out, I do have other stuff to do
I thought that being a bum and not having a job and not being highly mobile would mean I would spend oodles of time on the internet, but no, it appears that I can find other ways to amuse myself. This week I have finished "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" and two Dan Brown books "Angels and Demons" and "The Da Vinci Code." So many people have told me Holy blood is fascinating and a great book, but by the time they got through all their history and research stuff, I'd predicted what they were about to tell me in the final few chapters. I'm too good at that game. I've just started another Dan Brown book 'cos Dad got all 4 of them for his birthday.
So what's happened? Well, since we last spoke many things. I think I saw Amanda since then. It was all good. She told me some shocking stories about Tracy and Sherie...well, shocking for me, perhaps not so shocking for some people. Lee-Burger and I went down to pick up Natalie in Palmerston North and mocked their airport 'cos it looks like it belongs in a red-light district. On Wednesday the father figure and I travelled down to Wellington for my audition on Thursday morning! AGGGGH! that requires a new paragraph...
So, Thursday morning arrives at the shocking hour of 5 O'clock. Not by choice though, I couldn't sleep. In total I got about 5 hours sleep that night, before the biggest audition of my life. So anyway, got up showered warmed up in the shower, while I was getting ready etc etc went to breakfast: No dairy, no carbs, no fruit. I was just gonna have the scrambled eggs but the juice was so pulpy and inviting, so I cheated on the no fruit thing (it's all about the mucus). I already was mucusy enough cos I have this hacky cough and snotty nose gross thing going on, so that was a nightmare. Then it was bucketing with rain, and we had to get from Newlands to the Uni. It had taken 10 minutes the night before. Good thing we left early cos it took us about 40 that morning. The previous night we had also thought we'd found where we were going. So we walked down there (walking with my leg thing remember) and the door was locked. The woman inside told me I had to go down the hill and come back round to the front of the building. So, with aforementioned knee injury, pouring rain, a huge audition approaching, discovering I was the first of the morning and my phlegminess, I was pretty Fucking stressed! Get down the hill and there's no way to get in. Dad drove the car around to the more nearby carpark while I stood in the rain and he went back up the hill to find the entrance. By this time the original door had been unlocked, I was in a fair bit of pain and then found out I had to walk halfway back up the hill again. Needless to say, I cried. I cried for about 10 minutes 20 minutes before my audition and reversed all the hard work I had done that morning with warming up and anti mucus breakfast and half a box of tissues. After all that, it went ok though. So that was my Wellington Nightmare
Thursday evening drove back home, got back 7:30ish, wasn't hungry until 10ish. Wasn't hungry mostly the next day, but ate because I felt I should with the whole Weight Watchers thing. Before dinner last night I ate a meat pattie left over from dad's work BBQ. I don't think I've had so little food in that sort of time period ever before. I'm still not hungry really. Don't know if I will be tomorrow. I feel down in general, no appetite, apathy, excessive sleeping. The Psychologist in me sees the signs of depression. It's 'cos I have nothing to do. I don't get to have surgery until after January 24th which is dumb 'cos I'm not gonna have long to recover after it before having to go back to uni. So, caught up, here's some stuff...
This summer I want to do these things
* Actually have the random LJ nerd party, but I first need to learn how to use the .gif making program
* Get a whole bunch of people to go to the open air cinema at Black Barn and see "Run Lola, Run" and sit there and drink and eat cheese or something. It would be awesome fun
* Get a bundle of people to go to "The Phantom of the Opera" movie with me, dressed as though we were going to the actual production ('cos it is LW's actual production, just on film"
* Have at least one massive awesome beach day with a bundle of people, 'cos they are so much fun. Weather is being stupid though.
* Go on the wine weekend (y'know with the buses) with some mates.
This Christmas my ideal gifts would be
*The most recent Strung Out CD (I've fallen in lust with it)
*To see Halie and Fi and Abi and Horn and Lucy and Dave and both Nickis and Kenzo and Smithy and Craig and Leah and Erin and Jeremy and Estelle and so many more people from CH that I can't just pull out of the air, and also other people from CHCH...I miss them all
*For Lee to surprise me and say "Hey, I'm actually gonna come and visit you this year" or even better "Hey, I've decided to shift my degree to CHCH"
*My family to be happier and less angry, especially my sister who is so angry constantly
*To not be hugely fat anymore (I actually seriously am, trust me, I'm technically classed as ObeseI)
*To not feel apathetic as per the past while
*For my knee to be magically all better and for money to rain from the sky and into my bank acct.
I don't think anyone can really help me with that stuff. Although if anyone wants to rain money my way, it's most welcome.
So, I'm going to go and sleep now and I will try and be more diligent from now on with my internet usage. No wonder no-one talks to me when I only come on here every 10 days. BTW: I got my watch exchanged in Wellingtone and it is all worky and shiny and great!
I hope Kylie is happy 'cos I updated before Christmas.
Luv and Hugs to all, Happy Holiday season, whatever you may be celebrating
