Ah, life. You'd think that with my loooooooooooong absence from LJ that life would be exciting for me or something like that. Unfortunately no.
Four out of five exams down. Last one on Nov 7th...bah. If I don't fail anything this sem I'll be able to resit biochemistry for $72 plus an airfare. -_-;;
Since my birthday will come around when I'm in Wellington, these past few days I've been pretty busy...After my exam on the 28th we had a Pharmacy 2 dinner. Last night I went out to karaoke then played spin the bottle and tried to weasel secrets out of the secretive people. Today Tony took me shopping for a present D: Tomorrow he's taking me to dinner at a new Japanese restaurant and promised me flowers...but knowing him I wouldn't hope for the flowers. Helen gave me a bracelet and Wilson gave me 1k timezone tickets XD
Helen's birthday is also far away...December...so I got her something too. I enjoy giving presents. There's nothing like watching the wonderment on someone's face when they start opening a present turn into surprise and then joy when they see what it is. Anyway I got her a big dog plushie (Kmart toy sale ftw!) and lots of watermelon chuppa chups...cos apparently those are her favourite and put them at the bottom of an old, unremarkable cardboard box and filled it up with newspaper. Ha.
And also, suddenly, pictures! Thousands of them! For some reason I've started drawing and getting my creative urges again. I bought a bucket of chalk from the $2 shop and drew all over the concrete outside my friend's (yes, not mine) flat. I also drew a non-smoking sign outside the door of the smoker people's flat who make the whole place stink at 5.30pm every weekday. ARGH. I think Lydia took photos of me caught in the act so I shall post if I get my hands on them.
My latest picture is of chibi Dir en grey (ahahaha as usual)...to celebrate their new album (TBR November) and Toshiya's new....er....
haircut.... ^^;;
I watched the last few eps of House season 4. They made me cry like I haven't for a long time. It just reminded me how fragile life is, and that it's always been my dream to preserve life. That's why it annoys me when people wander about with no purpose or care. They're destroying the one chance they have at life without a second thought. It explains why I dislike smokers and gamblers and people who live off the government all their lives.
If I could change the world, I would. But we all know what happens when a human decides to change the world.
