Ah, uni students. They're so young and naive. My sojourn to Public Bar taught me 1) that "pub" is short for "public bar" and 2) university students can't conceive of me being 34. Turns out I'm 26. Wonder whether I should have corrected him and said I was 25. Anyway, with my new-found youth I drank a lot of $1 pots and accidentally stole some guy's ( Read more... )

I could get used to these five day weekends. Thursday night saw me out with the Melbourne Reddit crew at a pub in Fitzroy, and each and every one of them are wonderful... and maybe I've just pissed in their pockets to give them a warm feeling ( Read more... )

Really, are these words equivalent ( Read more... )

This is a little ridiculous. On Friday I withdrew $130 from my bank account. Do you know how much is in my wallet now? Well I'll tell you. It's $120. I spent less than $10 in cash over the entire weekend. I award me the cheapskate prize and accept your derision ( Read more... )

Woo! Care package goodness!

Thank you, fivealive. I'm stayin' inside, not leaving the house.

So Steph instant messaged me to find out why I'd deleted her number from my phone, and was hurt when I told her we weren't even friends.

I had mucho love from those on the HPGalleries, which made me feel really good. ( Read more... )

I'd like to stay longer, but I have to spend the rest of the evening at home.
You look so much more... different... than your picture indicates.

Muahaha!

I've spent the entirety of the afternoon/evening/night chatting to Catherine on ICQ. What have I learnt about myself? Well, one of my most treasured memories has been revealed to be pure selfishness again. I shed a tear in its passing. Thank you so very much, Catherine. Damn introspection. Damn truth.

Just spoken for an hour with someone who believes in Pure Love. At first I thought she was intelligent, being a psych major, but then it came to pass that her beliefs can be explained thusly

• You are a reincarnated god of your own being
  
• Love is a meaningless feeling
  
• Being a god is a learning experience
  
• You exist in the world but only learn from your ( Read more... )
