I'm supposed to be studying '_';;; But I went shopping and bought clothes and games. so terrible =_=;;; It's Mum's fault! *points* I was all ready to do some work and she said we were going suit shopping..... so I have a suit now, it looks so strange. I look like a grown up ^^; Nononono I'm 21 but I don't want to be a grown up. I kept standing in the shop looking at it and going O______o With the shoes, the jacket, the skirt and shirt I just didn't recognise me =_=;; No photos will be posted, I look like an office lady!
I also have playstation games, for which I blame my brother =X "Go get me Metal Gear Solid" he said..... it's over $50 in Sydney he said....... I managed to find it in Game Traders second hand for $29, but I also stumbled on some games I wanted really cheap >_<;;; So now I have Grandia and Final Fantasy IX. I was just going to test them when I came home, but ended up sitting in front of the tellie for 3 hours playing FFIX T_T;; I shouldn't buy new games, I'm still in the middle of Vagrant Story, and until exams are over I won't have much time to play.
Yay, I've been semi good today and semi-studied ^_^; I study best in the middle of the night so I'm taking a break now and will resume at 11pm or midnight. I wish uni lectures during the week didn't start so early, so I could study from 12 to 3. ^^; Those are my best hours ^^;;;;;;;; Before 12 there are too many things distracting me. And during the day I can see the sun shining and the wind blowing and I want to go outside and play T_____T;; I never get anything done during the day.
Dum dee dum. That's about it really: study sleep study eat study afternoon nap study sit on the puter and lose ability to move away from it. Crap, I'm an internet addict =_=;;
Kekekekeke new layout featuring Kpop group Shinhwa ^______^ The cartoony pictures of them are taken from a shinhwa memo set that was released around the same time as their Gido Music video. AAAAAH they're so incredibly cute, I've wanted to use them for a long time XD Jun Jin had to be masked with writing though *points up* There's a big gap in his picture around his stomach because the person who scanned it put writing over him *pouts* I'm too lazy to draw the rest of him in with Photoshop. I've done it once before (for a Shinji picture)....... never again. It turned out well, but I took forever and a day n_n;
Ah, I'm such a procrastinator. I spent all this time reading manga, and making this layout and the Shinhwa Sarang graphic (because........ because I just felt like it). I haven't studied anything at all today ^^;
Gaaaah, I got roped into going shopping with my uni friends after prac today, and I had meant to come home and cram cram cram ^^; Poor Mary is so easily bribed with Boost Juice and a promised trip to Red Earth.
Oh, MA SMSed me with news about the job. She says the company has ruined our weekend ^^; They gave it to the PhD guy (I knew it la), and N's job is still up for grabs...... but I don't want it, and MA doesn't either. MA is pissed and wants to find work elsewhere as soon as possible ^^; I want out of the private sector and into the public ( getting foot int he door hard..... hard...... but apparently once you're in it's easy to move around ).
I should have applied for the job IMVS advertised earlier this week, but it's too late now >_>;; I heard the interviewer is really scary though. One of the girls in my class had her interview already and she came out crying X________X She did honors and he told her very bluntly that he wanted someone with a diagnostic background and not research, among other things. Apparently he was very harsh on her ^^; But the pay is so good..... $19 an hour T______T I should have taken a shot at it la. would have if my lab had told me earlier about the PhD guy =_=; Just a few days earlier would have been good.
I heard Gr*bbles are looking for people to work in microbiology, but so many people have told me that working in Gr*bbles is hell on earth ^^; The have such a high staff turnover, and everyone is so stressed. I heard they separate the lunch room by division too... Like the micro people have their own table and they all eat together. And the biochemistry people have their own table and they all eat together..... and you're not supposed to go sit at someone elses table X_____X;; That's so weird!
I want to make a new blog layout X_x I'm tired of the car up top and the darkness of the layout. I need something bright! Something to counter current exam stress ^^;
I think G's been knocked back down from his newly aquired scientist position to a TA again X______X;; He looketh miserable today and I consider it very weird to see G less than bouncing off the walls with energy. Rumour says he just couldn't pick up all that sciency stuff ^^; Poor G, it's because the uni course he did had nothing to do with medical science ^^;;
today was very quiet. I actually sat around and studied for almost 3 ours in the lab =X kekeke, usually I hate those nights where there's no work to do, but now exams are looming and I need the time ^^; I've been walking around in a very dazed, half awake state for the past week. People tell me things and I immediately forget them. I don't notice anything properly, and I don't feel like chatting with people because I feel guilty that I'm not cramming XP Not that any of that guilt is doing me any good. I still procrastinate 98% of the time and study 2%. =_=; As a result I am stressing when I go to bed and not sleeping properly. It's a vicious cycle I tell you a vicious cycle!
I'm modifying my resume again :D Because it is looking to me like that scientist job is not happening. It is still being strongly pushed at the americans, but someone else (and Primary Industries) is pushing for a Vetinary Medicine PhD guy. I can't compete with the PhD guy la! So I'm going to send out my resume to every Melbourne lab I can get the address of, and IMVS here in Adelaide. It's back to the original plan. Ooooh. Apparently that means I need a suit. =_=;; And here I thought I wouldn't have to worry about it. I want to work for a government owned lab. The pay is better and everyone is less stressed >_>;;;
If I was D I'd be worried. PIRSA are complaining that she's too young to be senior microbiologist and now they're pushing for this 50 year old PhD guy to be second in charge. She'd better not go on holiday, they might do to her what they did to C. C used to be senior microbiologist years ago, but then she went on holiday and when she came back they had promoted someone else to her position, and offered C a lower job =_=;;; I didn't know they were allowed to do that, but apparently they are...
geh. mary is at uni with Vachan working on the crappy Histopathology write up T___________T I have to compile all the pictures and notes into a powerpoint presentation too. I'm so lazy. I don't want to ^^; The proper report thingy is half written, I just need to elaborate and make it 3 times as long as it is now =X It's not hard, I can crap on, it's just so boooooooooooring T____T;; This project is killing my brain cells
Vachan has wandered off to find something in Reid Building, so Mary is sitting here swinging her legs and refusing to work right now. Why isn't mattie on the Tamaboards when I want him to be? I want to talk to Mattie yo!
Don't want to study, don't want to study, don't want to study, don't want to go to uni tomorrow n_n;; I got my hair cut today yay. And bought new clip on headphones to replace the dying ones that came with my ipod (the rubber broke. I've had them taped together for a month n_n;; ). If I remember correctly, they are similar to Miko's, but hers were different color with different caps? There was actually a different pair I wanted with a flexichord, but one look at the price ($99) deterred me, and these were quite cute.
=3 Still playing with the camera. I went and took pictures of my friends at Uni XD Some photos have been posted, but I don't have their permission to go tacking their photos all over the net. So you won't see sourpuss P*ter, supermodel M*ria or idiotic MA XD;;; Instead you get to see the hands of Mary, Vachan and P =D;; What fun for you. P turned out to be very photogenic actually..... And I kept closing my eyes in every group picture T_T;;
lol Yuki. You're a bit late for the shinhwa CD ^^; I already offered it to Joey-kins.
=3 They bought me a digital camera~ XD A 4megapixel Nikon Coolpix (4300), whaaaaa that was surprising *___*;; I've been taking pictures of everything. Go see the photo folder. I took pictures of all the thingies they brought back, as well as my doggy, fishies and my room XD It's so easy to use la. I love it to bits *_______*
The new Shinhwa CD turned out to be perfect man. so shall I mail it to Kins? =3 There is a BoA CD if Nahnah wants it and does Mattie want Garnet Crow (singles collection)? Mum brought back 3 CDs I already own ^^;
Mum is huggling me and being all proud because I was offered that job at the lab ^^; She keeps talking about how she's so happy. If the US section doesn't approve it though it's gone ._.''' Other people seem happier about it than I am. Mary fears the responsibility.
