Some Things Need Left Alone

Semester break has come and gone and uni started up again yesterday. This semester's break started later (week 9) than it usually does (week 7) and it got me really cranky by the end of week 9. I had completely lost my optimism for second semester. All my imaginary rainbows and sunshine were gone by then. So, I had 10 days to recover and rest up and say I would work on my assignments etc. I wasn't as productive as I had hoped.

The first weekend, I went down to Movie World with Tim, Karen, Eric and Sherwynna. Tim was visiting for the week so of course we went and screamed and filled ourselves up with enough soft drinks anybody should have in a year and sat on all the best rides after eating copious amounts of food and trying our best not to throw up after riding UPSIDE DOWN ON THE FRIGGIN GREEN LANTERN. It was a gorgeous day. 晴れですね!It really was a really good day. So good. :D

The next day, Amanda & I went about and visited a couple of thrift stores and explored Brisbane a bit more, but didn't pick up anything interesting. Our day was cut short due to storm warnings sadly. I wish it had stormed though. It would've been a good naptime. 


The rest of the week was a blur of lying on the couch watching various things, eating, attempting to make videos, tumbling and not doing any uni work at all. It was pretty wonderful. I regret nothing. Since there are no photos of me being a couch potato, here are some pictures of Chewie.










Riverfire is something we have in Brisbane every year to celebrate the Brisbane River. Basically, it's fireworks and aerial displays. The city and Southbank get pretty crazy on that day and this year, I had to work at a nearby Subway. It was crazy busy and people were rude and we were so unfamiliar with the new store and just <insert frustration here>. After work, we walked to Tommy's apartment in the city for his birthday gathering. Everybody was drinking and just talking most of the night. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I wasn't so tired.

I did manage to watch 4 movies in the cinema during my break though!
1. Total Recall
2. Looper
3. Beasts of the Southern Wild
4. Moonlight Kingdom

Though technically, that last one I saw earlier tonight. I still have not seen Ruby Sparks, which is very disappointing considering I've been looking forward to that for so long. :C Confession time! I'm only blogging because I have an assignment due Friday and I told myself I would finish it tonight. My procrastination is your gain, I guess!

I have to go work on my assignment now. Kbai.
