today was spent running up and down. first had to go into uni to get my scholarshop commencement forms signed by the faculty research officer-person. website said they normally have lunch break at 1, so got there at 12. Office was locked, lights were off. ok. thought maybe they were at lunch. went and hung out in campus centre with dinesh and his friends. beef bulgogi for lunch, yummy! went back to office at 1:15. lights still off. wtf. hang around till 2. still no one. start to get pissed off. need to get form signed and take to MRGS before 4. sigh. finally someone shows up at 2.30. "Long lunch :D" she says. whatever. at least leave a sign will you!

hand her form, beg for signature. just one sign. "Oh I've gotta call your supervisor and ask her something before i can sign". Er. supervisor in meeting for 1 hour. FUCKIN HELL. taking form over to MRGS now delayed till Friday morning. sigh. Rush to bus loop to go to NAB chaddy for car loan interview

got there, was kept waiting for 1/2 an hour even though I made an appointment and I WAS 5 minutes EARLY. Get told I pass the interview, but "Please fill in more forms and bring them back tomorrow with copies of pay slips/ enrolment. sigh.

Gastro sucks

As in title: gastro sucks. I've only been in melbourne for 2 days, and already my stomach, she rebels! Anyway, landed on sunday night, stayed up all night because of jet laggyness, went into the lab straight away on monday morning because I wanted to get my schol payments sorted out (moniez!!!) - straight away bumped into H (one of the RAs and the scariest person there) "oh my S, you've put on weight!"

T_T

and here I thought I'd actually maintained/lost a kg or so. no matter. walk into supervisors office.

G: *gasp of shock* YOU CAME BACK!?!?!

Me: of course I did

G:*grabs my head and plants two kisses on each cheek*

me: *wtf face*

she prods me to go to other supervisors office. he *boings* and grabs me and bear hugs :S

seriously. its like ive been gone for years or something.

anyway, jumping straight into things i guess. still no clear idea about what my phd project is, doing a few more expts for hons stuff to publish in higher impact factor journal, so stuck with that for the next month or so. also have to look after/show Quiet Boy (new hons student) how to kill/chop mice up, and how to do other things around lab. woo.

dinner was chicken sausage, mashed potatoes and veggys. ugh. didnt really feel hungry so pushed everything around and then threw food away. Bad Bad S.

annd...since I finally started watching naruto during these hols (bandwagon? late? anyone?) and am waiting for the latest release from dattebayo, i thought i might as well start on bleach. why is it i watch insanely popular things loong after they show up?

upto episode 6 now. lol. long way to go

mood today: couldnt be f***ed

outfit today:organic cotton white "the future is green" t shirt (target buy, 5$!!!)
Lee bootcut jeans
black almond toe ballet flats
rust, red and brown scarf around neck
