New Years! [02 Jan 2007|03:09pm]
[ mood | happy ]
[ music | Not sure what the song's called, but it's Mattafix ]

Ok so the last week was pretty interesting.... Nothing much happened up until about friday, so i'll start there.

Friday - Shopping, and consequently - new clothes, good ones too I hope! I like them at least. Friday night was a night out, which was great fun, too many drinks at the newport to start off with and then too many drinks at harbourside, stupid dancing and off around 4. Issues arose at that point, but nothing major, just frustrating i guess.... But it shall be fine!

Saturday - just hanging around and marvelling at foxtel, I watched more episodes of will and grace then than I think I ever will again and saturday night was the first i've spent at home in a long time, although I didnt really spend it at home, I wandered back to my place around 1030 then went for a drive up to doubleview and then came home through the city via sin for a few minutes.

SUNDAY - Ok, this day was awesome, just deadset awesome, woke up around twelve, lazed for a bit and got dressed, went into freo to meet the gal then headed off to jeremey's place to hang around for a bit before driving alllll the way to upper swan, which was a lot more painless than I would have thought. Arrived at about 630 and stood in line till 7, before being spear tackled by both hanson and jamie and soon after let inside. Belvoir is a great venue and i'd never been there before, having arrived while it was still light I got a chance to have a look around, and it's nowhere near as big as i thought it would be and very steep! but somehow they managed to pack around 4000 people in before the sun went down. Most of the people i'd want to be spending new years with came and it got absolutely amazing very quicky, great music, amazing lighting rig and all up about 5 hours of absurdly bad dancing, off around 2 unfortunately, but an afterparty at plav's went on for a while and was a good way to bring the night to a close, a fantastic 12am countdown, fireworks, absolutely amazing kids, and an easy trip there and back weren't marred by anything, it was all in all a great night and the best part is I felt fine afterwards!

Monday - also spent lazing around watching foxtel and I didn't even feel that bad! Aside from an awful taste in my mouth that just wouldn't quit and the expected cut up mouth I felt fine, hung around a bit then headed home, got conned into going to bar open to see a DJ set by the Rapture which was great, but by the end of which I felt dead inside and just wanted a bed.

Tuesday - So far? i've woken up and had lunch at little creatures! something i've never done, but was great, mainly because of the Johnny D sighting, i'm hoping to track down 40 bucks between now and tonight so I can go see him, but really, I shouldn't be going anywhere right now and I think i'll probably just stay home.

Right now the only concern i've got is my complete lack of cash, thats right, i'm flat broke! but i think ill go job hunting tomorrow after I have lunch with karen, and hopefully find something that won't make me want to quit in a fortnight.

Hope everyone else had as great a new years as I did!

Jeebus.

Ok so I just woke up.
Last night I (rather stupidly) went to dan's birthday party knowing full well that I had an exam at 830 this morning, and I had a fantastic night, although around 3am lying in the front room trying to sleep while seriously bassy dnb is being pumped into the room on my left and oasis singalongs are happening in the room on my right I realised that I really wasn't going to get any sleep, and didn't.

So I went along to my exam, and goddamn if I don't think I did really well at it somehow compared to my other efforts, although as easy as it was I just wanted to get out of there. Just over an hour and a half later I powered out of the exam before the wave of exhaustion hit me and walked off to the bus station, nearly fell asleep there, and on the bus where I got many strange looks for my sunken eyes and pale complexion.

I got home. I slept. I woke up.

I've finished exams for this semester and goddamn if life ain't peachy, summer, here I come. Life is good.

P.S. Was staying out all night really that bad an idea? I don't know why but i felt fine until around 1030 when I left, but everyone I told about it on my way out looked at me in a really horrified manner.

It seems I've actually managed to get my shit together and organise a party, I havent had a party in at least 3 years, but its a good feeling when you actually pull it off and everyone enjoys themselves, so I hope they will this time, and with any luck it should be a lot of fun, small, but nice. Its happening on the 14th of October, and if youre reading this you're probably invited, drop me a line and let me know if youre interested in coming, sorry if I forgot you.

I've always had this strange ability to be able to just forget about shit, like just get over anything within about 24 hours of it going down, parents splitting up, getting kicked out or even past relationships, these kind of things just don't seem to really bother me (I know they should). Lately however, for the first time, I'm still regretting and feeling bad about something that happened weeks ago, and I can't stop thinking about it, and I've got no idea what I can do about it either, aside from continue to be fairly miserable about the whole fiasco, it's a bit shit.

So I picked up Lesser Matters by the Radio Dept. today, and it fucking rocks, it is by far the best album I've heard in months, amazingly fantastic. I couldn't recommend it more.

In other news I got some news that I wasn't expecting, It's good, but I'd prepared myself for bad, so I'm not quite sure whats going on with me there. But by this time tomorrow night I'll have a pretty good idea whats what I think, maybe not though, given my degree of certainty lately.

It would seem that after all my stressing and shenanigans I might just actually have a relationship in the making. And goddamn if she isn't just amazing.
