MARY HAS A PLAYSTATION =D

I didn't mean to get one. This is really bad, I had planned to study. Geeeeeeeh =_=;; I cut through Harris Scarfe to get to my bus stop and lo and behold, giant game sale! All PSone, PS2 and Gameboy advance/color games were half price. They had the PSone for $99 but the guy made a mistake when I bought it. All the games in the store were 50% off and I think he got confused. He gave me 50% off my PSone and I didn't notice for ages ^^; So I have my console for $50. ya! What am I playing? My brother left his Final Fantasy VIII game here, and when I phoned him he said I MUST play. So I'm playing that ^^; I got Vagrant story cheap, but all I've done with that so far is watch the intro.

Mmm I had an old modified Playstation before, but it was my brother's and he took it to Sydney with him. boo. At the time it was here I wasn't interested in any games though, so I didn't think it mattered ^^; Now I want to play cheap second hand RPGs yo!

This is bad. Very very bad.

Gaaaah, I've been here long enough. Mary go home now. Home home home............ riiiiiiiiiight after I visit Red Earth.

[I've become a cosmetic queen. Nah has gotten sick of me ^^; You know there was a time i hated makeup........... and it was only at the beginning of this year]

Geh, what am I doing at Uni on a Sunday morning (oh I remember. Haematology research). I had hell making my security pass work. I just kept running it through the card thingie over and over. And it in turn kept beeping angrily at me over and over until some nice boy took pity on me and buzzed me in. =_=;; *glares at evil card* Why you no work?! I hope it works well enough to let me out of the building, or I'll have to loiter about waiting for someone else to leave and then sneak out while the door is still open n_n;;

Cha~ I haven't really got anything to blog today. I've been wasting my time at Tamarket's Forums (look at this fellow shinhwa fangirls =D Kins, Miko, go register, we must flood them with Kpop goodness) and studying. My george have I been studying. =_=; I'm halfway through virology and now that I look at it all rewritten and nice it suddenly makes sense. I had no idea what was going on during the lectures, but now it's so clear ^^;

I've been having terrible terrible sushi cravings (raw tuna with cucumber to be exact). My uni notes are all littered with little drawings of sushi =_=;; I dragged Nahnah out to eat it for lunch today and then bought more on the way home so I coul eat it for dinner. This is terrible ^^;

Hrmm what else did I do? Studied with Nah for a bit, bothered my cousin with nonsensical speech when I saw him, went to YL's house for my very late b'day present ^^; I meant to stay there only 15 minutes or something like that but stayed 2 hours talking =_=;; I met her brother la. He looks exactly like her but male. She left me with him, so I tried to talk to him but he just smiled and nodded his head and....... stood there looking akward ._.'' I asked about his Uni course and blah, but he just nodded. Was very anxious for YL to come back. I suppose it must be like that when I'm all quiet na ._.'' I don't do that so much anymore (I think......), I'm more confident than I was 2 or 3 years ago. I'll never be a socialite or anything, but I think I get by ok.

oooh I almost showed Nahnah the Fany guy today. When we were walking to Bubble point he was walking down the street in the opposite direction. But I couldn't point until he was past us because he was looking at me >_<;;;; I was looking at him thinking "QUIT LOOKING AT ME, how can I point you out to Nah it you're watching me?!" *shakes fist* He must recognise me from the bus or something, we catch the same one almost every day. Damn him. (he runs funny BTW, this morning he ran to catch the bus and he runs like a duck =D;; it was a strange little bowlegged half run na =D;; ). So by the time I told Nah, he had walked around the corner and was crossing the road =P; Boo, maybe another chance will come.

This just makes me dislike microsoft more than I already do =_=;;

*_* I had my job interview this afternoon. it was actually quite fun ^_^; But maybe that's because the panel bailed and the only interviewer was D. Only me and MA were interviewed today, I think D was using us as practice, because everyone else is tomorrow ^^;;; It was quite informal, we each went into D's office and she sat there reading her questions at us off a sheet of paper. When I was in there MA said she could hear us laughing and decided I wasn't doing too badly XD;; D answered some of my questions herself O_o;; When she asked me about my computing skills I said I could do imaging (ha! ^^;), word processing, excell etc. And she asked me if I was good at it and I said "I think I'm competent", she started laughing and nearly whacked me over the head with her paper XD;;;; D thinks I'm some kind of computer genius who can do anything. She's so very very wrong but I'm not going to correct her >=D

So I have everything I want out of applying for this job already na. I can quit worrying. I am not fussed if I don't get the scientist job or the TA job (the interview was suddenly for both O_o; ). I've been through the application process and an interview. I j ust wanted to see what it was like so I'll be better next time ^^; Actually I'm hoping I don't get them because then I can run away and find something somewhere else faster XD; I want to run away from Adelaide la (*pats Nahnah* there there I won't be going anywhere so fast)

Mary is receding into the deep dark recesses of her bedroom, where she had turned her desk to exam mode, and shifted the Hi Fi so near to the desk that she does not have to get up to change CDs. She will be living in this room for the next 5 or 6 weeks, dilligently cramming for exams and only leaving to go to Uni and/or work. Or so goes the plan.

In other words, I will be on AIM very little in the next month (but will still continue to plug away at blogging). Not that AIM likes me anyway, it's still kicking me off every 5 seconds, I never get to say hi to anyone.

OMG the F4 "Ask for more" music video is such a blatant Pepsi advertisement. XD; Is it meant to be? I never heard of it until I got Vanness's CD. Girl asks for something, f4 boys run away to find her something special and the one she chooses is the one who brought her a box with little Pepsi cans in it ^^;; Pepsi logos are all over the place. I shall not be swayed though >=D F4 can advertise Pepsi all they like. Vaness can bathe in it, but Mary will remain a Coke fan. Pepsi yuckie, Coke yummy. And curse the people in resteraunts who give me Pepsi in a glass pretending it's Coke, thinking I can't tell the difference >=P

Hrm, but it was Jerry who brought the Pepsi compact. Ewwwww, Jerry T_T; Vic brought a bunch of flowers and Ken (yay!) brought a pretty fish in a bowl. Mmm, but Vaness brought a massive bunch of blue balloons, and he looked so freaking happy with them, I'd have chosen him na *_* But Kins...... more armpit hair sightings, Vaness no shave it either, I am much traumatised.

I love this video/song so much now ^_^ it's so happy, my new replacement for the ever addictive SM Town Summer Vacation. Is Ken going to release a solo album? I want a Ken solo album ^_^;

SH*T O_O My boss just called me [so late for a work related call O_o], interview on Thursday O_O;;; Interview la O_O;; Panel of 4 people asking questions. Oh, that I scary >_> I don't know what to say >_>;; I know them all, what will I say? >_>;; She also asked me if I want to apply for a new scientist position which just came up in microbiology n_n; F who was replacing NB (who is on maternity leave) has just resigned, so there is an 11 month position open now.

ARGHHHHHHHH INTERVIEW! *runs in frantic circles*

I'm back yo =D So what did I do in Melbourne?
  • We had so much trouble finding a hotel in Melbourne X_x We drove around for 6 hours (with dinner break when we got fed up) before we found a hotel. And they only had one room and were half an hours drive away from the city ^^; It's because the Masters Games are on and we didn't know =_=;;
  • Went to Victoria markets to wander around aimlessly. Someone was selling baby ducks! Oooh they were so adorable, i wanted one ^^; It could come live in my bathtub, I'll house train it so it poos in a dish =] In the end I bought....... nothing =D;; Well, no thing for me. I have something pretty for Nah.
  • I met Miko yesterday! Ooooh she's so fun to hang out with =] I made her take me CD/cute store/ anime shopping all afternoon XD I have a mass of CDs from Initial D *_* There were so many I wanted and I followed Miko's pricing advice. I have Vaness's "Body will Sing" (yay!, "Watch my body boooooooooo~dy......... shake your body boooooooo~dy" LOL XDDDDD The lady looked at my funny when I bought it, so embaressing =P;), Initial D Millenium Box (5 CDs *_*), Baby VOX special album (3 CDs, VCD and cards *_*), Kangta's "Pine Tree" (*drool*), Moon HeeJun's "Messiah" (*drool*), Dir En Grey's "Macabre" ('cause it came with a VCD and I'm curious). There were some gorgeous handbags in some of the cute stores and I wanted so much, but they were out of my price range n_n; Awww too bad I could not meet Kins as well.
  • Miko and I stumbled upon a manga sale (I told Kuya and Lami it was a manga warehouse, which wasn't quite right la >=D;). Some guy was handing out flyings and we decided to go, but it was creepy la *_*; They had to open the building door with a key and it was so quiet and the lift was shaking when it went up. It turned out to be a room full of very very old manga in piles all over the floor (we think they're from a manga library that closed down). All so old that Miko didn't know any of them XD; But very cheap la, 3 books for $1.
  • I was kidnapped and taken to a far away apartment complex where I was leeched for all my money in exchange for anime goods (4 Maaya Sakamoto CDs, manga manga manga, plushies, phone hanger ["if you can hang it on my phone I'll buy it"],can't list all, too vast), then sat down to see how good Mario Sunshine is and told I'm not the type to be playing Resident Evil *shakes fist*
  • The bubble tea in Melbourne in 10X 100X1000X better than the bubble tea in Adelaide. I bought 3 and drank them all the way through the 8 hour drive back to Adelaide >=D I feel sick la.
I HAVE SHINHWA'S WILD PHOTOBOOK! WOOOHOOOOO!!!
