...And An Article About Attainment

The long easter holiday has commenced (for me anyway) No school for me until next Thursday; a whole week without university is definitely the break I've been waiting for, I can tell you that much.

Well I got back from Parramatta not too long ago and my feet are in excruciating pain. Who would have thought superfluous amounts of shopping would deliver unrelenting compassionless pain. Ok well it dosn't take a rocket scientist to realize I'm exaggerating, but just sitting down for 2 seconds releases a whole void of relaxation.

Similar to the Thursday two weeks back, I spent my Thursday night with Veronica and Shirley walking around all the clothing stores in Parra Westfield. These girls are the epitome of fashion - especially Shirley who always keeps me up to date with 'essentials' and 'in-seasons'. She showed me a great piece of Wrangler clothing at DJ which I'll purchase as soon as my cash from PayPal finishes transferring. I also managed to run into Karel at Glue and do a little bit of catching up which was good. On that note, a lot of catching up was done this week but I'll talk about that later.

Apart from shopping, we had dinner at Pho Pasteur which was amazingly filling. Though I do regret committing to Shirley's dare of consuming chilli flakes prior to meal consumption, the dinner was splendid. Afterwards, the three of us headed down to Blacktown Westpoint to waste money at PlayTime because that's what kids do. I also ran into an old friend of mine who I haven't seen in a long time, despite the fact that she lives ridiculously close to me. Nice seeing you Katie !

Afterwards I went back to St Marys with Veronica. Not that anyone in the would care, but today on the way home Veronica borrowed my PSP and 'accidentally' erased all my hard work and efforts on Ridge Racer. So if you're reading this Veronica, I would like to thankyou for your 'kind' acts. I told you I would mention you on my blog, so here it is.

Well that's my Thursday night. Let's backtrack a little and reflect over Week 4 of university. Monday was the usual start of the week with my Communications seminar and then a 5 hour gap leading to my Accounting lecture. At the moment, my mind is so preoccupied with upcoming assessments and exams that my mind refuses to reiterate the many events that happened during the week.

Wednesday was a great day of bonding with my group members for my Managing People and Organisations assignment. We had our first group meeting in the library and a lot of jokes and laughs were exchanged. Great stuff. With that said, I'd like to apologize guys for not showing up to the meeting we held today. I thought our meeting was at 11:30 and that our tutorial started at 12, hence me showing up late to class with a half-consumed hotdog and a carton of milk.

With Wednesday being a great day, Thursday could only be better. I've pretty much written a recount of Thursday at the start of this post talking about my day with Veronica and Shirley, but the highlight of the day would have to be me randomly bumping into my dear old friend Alyce at the UTS food court. Never in a trillion years did I expect to ever see her again, let alone in my university, but I'm glad I did.

I'm content with the week that has elapsed. A lot of old faces have renewed themselves and it only makes me look forward to seeing them again knowing that they're so close. I'll end it here because I have an imminent threat - that is my face falling on the keyboard at any given moment.

Actually just before I conclude, I'd like to thank Shirley for taking me to karaoke today. I sing Backstreet Boys to myself all the time, but I didn't think I'd be singing it in front of other people. Nice meeting your friends too.
