Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong
I have five day weekends now. Much like the end of last year, it's as if I don't even really go to Ucol. When classes finished for 2004, I didn't even notice. Anywho, you might recall last term I had some nasty things to say about the place and the people there. The program leader asked me to make retractions, I stood my ground. Somehow things are civil and cheery again. It seemed that at the end of every class, the scenario would be the same - he couldn't figure out a key issue (usually a hardware fault) that we needed to proceed with learning. So he'd call it a day and hope maybe the next day would be different. It was always different alright - just the faults, that it. The ending was always the same. Things haven't changed with the latest paper I'm enrolled in either, other than it having expired in 1993 so the topics are student-interest driven.
I want to go and take a holiday in Hamilton for a week. Get a change of pace. The Prof and Damelza have a spare room, and have offered it to me in any capacity - Rob's still very keen on having me move there fully. I definitely considered it, but I think it's better to see this year out in Wanganui and 'at' Ucol, push extra hard to get the Student Allowance (and vote Labour in the interest of eliminating interest). Keep things rolling with WYC'D and establishing a Youth Council. Interesting Side Note: The Mayor seemed very shocked and horrified at the notion that I might leave town next year. He also said he likes my website (what part - Anonymous Wrestling Comic, Subarashii: Eggsellent...?) so I don't know if I have any faith in his sincerity.
I've been trying to get back to work on Everyone Stupid Dies, but Sam's been too obsessed with playing Guild Wars to think along the hilarious lines he usually does when we sit down together, and I just haven't been feeling it on my own. Luckily Gary has started randomly stopping by and it's been good because I haven't had his perspective on things for about a month or so now - he's very loud, and with the house/family situation as it had been, he definitely would have exacerbated things. So with fresh eyes and ears on the newer stuff, I think I'm ready to dive back in. It's going to be a good script, and it's going to be a funny story.
And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
