So this is going to be a long one; so grab your self some popcorn or something. My 7 and a bit day stay in Mount Barker was wonderful. At first i was a bit hesitant because i would be staying in a house where i only knew one person. But the Lawson family was beyond nice. The temperature was awesome. It wasn't ice cold even though it hit the 30ths but it's when you don't have to deal with Queensland's humidity it just becomes so perfect. There's nothing more wonderful then sleeping with a doona. Everyones houses were huge in South Australia, non of the roads were straight, they all had these beautifully landscaped backyards. South Australia had like minimum traffic lights which freaked me out a little, i don't think i could drive in those conditions. Also everyone was a bit more green there, South Australia has implemented a plastic bag tax, you wouldn't believe how many people i saw with those green bags.
We went to the Garden of Unhealthy delight which was like the prelude to the fringe festival. I wish i could've planned my stay a bit better that way i would've gotten to see Tom Gleeson and Hannah Gadsby. I could've also hit the South Australian Soundwave but oh well. I met a lot of people, made a few friends, had the most horrid experience on public transport, went clubbing in Adelaide and rode on bumper cars. I was sad to go. Though i am most deffently going back.
Soundwave.
Another thing i didn't initially want to go to. I was to tired and wasn't expecting the day to turn out as well as i wanted. I saw about 10 bands. I'll never go into another Paramore mosh pit, i couldn't even focus on the performance because of the amount of drug infused bogans, overzealous fat chicks and gay emo kids fighting around me. All Time Low was just amazing, moshed like a 14 year old girl on steroids, up beat lyrics and song's that i just sing a home. Though You me at six took the cake. They've been my favourite band for a while now and i was kinda getting pissed off that no one knew them. Randoms kept on asking me who i was there to see and they were like oh, i was like so what if I'm not here for fucking Trivium. Most pit was kinda eh, too many fuckers who didn't even know the lyrics around me, i really wanted to get up to the front. Though when Save it for the Bedroom came on, everyone went crazy and that was most likely the best song i heard there all day. I got to meet them, i waited in line for like a hour and ended up getting the second last ticket. They signed my Soundwave ticket and that's now in my room awaiting lamination. I think the most exciting part of the day was having a conversation with Max and his really really British accent. I also discovered a new song that wasn't in the albums i downloaded and it's pretty fucking amazing.

The scene is dead
I think it's time for a Dejan update.
Saturday: Epic, pure win.
Sister and four friends just talking, laughing, throwing dildos at each other. A fun time was had by all. Conversations lasted until 3. Went through Christen's porno collection, a lot of magazines. I choked and cried after finding a page of middle-aged obese hairy women. Everyone laughed, no one helped. Condom balloon animals. Walked in on things and giggled. Played Tekken, a lot of Tekken. Me and Christen are both stubborn and went rematch after rematch.
Sunday-Monday: Alright.
Things confused me, certain relationships confuse me. I had the most horrid night. I didn't sleep well the night before. Dexter (the dog) would not stop sleeping on my face. I was like fuck off. Changed sleeping locations a few times the son of a bitch still went after me. I broke the curtain handle by accident so i was like /oh fuck. So had to repair that in the morning. I knew at that instant regardless that i was 3 am that i wasn't going to have a good day. I did he best i could to stay positive but it was hard. Teppenyaki people fucked up my order, didn't cook the chicken properly. Dad was pissed when he got home from work, i don't know whether it was because he had a shit day at work or because he was pissed i didn't come home on the weekend. Either way it didn't impress me. Training didn't go much better. Training day changed to Wednesday. I set up my uni time table to be able to attend training. This meant putting most of my class's on Wednesday. I have like a hour break from 9-5. Then they expect me to come home straight away get changed and go. Like i can do it, time really isn't a issue but I'm just going to get tired and i won't feel like it and I'll want to quit. Grading still to be confirmed but it appears that it'll be the 13 of march. I am so not ready. I know it's hard to fail a grading at this level but still i hate the whole grading process and being judged.
Friends: Surprised, pleasantly.
So i have to go back to the clinic for a follow up examination and to get my Hep B vaccination cause i apparently missed out on it in school. The needles i can deal with it. It's just the location that i don't like. It's supposed to be a open place for everyone to come to. But the white corridors and judgemental staff scare the fuck out of me. I've been putting it off cause I've been ashamed to ask most friends to take me and those i did can't. Though today a friend from uni offered to go with me, it caught me off guard. I don't know this just isn't the kind of thing i would ask of a male friend, just the whole ego thing; it's just really shameful but I'm glad about my choice in friends. Also would like to thank a very special lady who agreed on dropping me off at the air port, even though she judged me when i offered to put out for her. You really are a lesbian, but i still heart you.
Cobra Starship: :Q_____
Pretty sexy. I realised I'm going to their concert in march and i haven't downloaded all their albums. The early stuff is like eh. The Hot Mess album is pretty epic. I can't wait to hear a few songs come march. And Owl City too =D
Soundwave: Soon!
I don't know what to expect. Like I'll go weak in the knees at a few bands and spend a fuck load on merchandise but oh well. You me at Six ! You me at Six ! You me at Six! You me at Six!
Stocktake: Wednesday.
I know it's not generally a pleasant experience but i look forward to it. It'll just be 4 hours of laughs, granted we'll have to do work but oh well.
South Australia: This week.
$415 return. 8 Days of fun. Valentines day will be horribly awkward as i will be third wheeling. Though i hope i still have fun. I need to buy new clothes and find my god damn PlayStation portable.
Karli Fletcher:
I've read that Edward will be changing your password so i don't know if you'll be getting wall posts or how that whole thing is going to work out. Regardless I would very much like to hang out with you when i get back from South Australia (21/02/2010) and get my pillow back; have you named it yet? Also i refuse to allow Uni to steal you this year.
University: Closing in.
Only like two weeks away, and life will once again change when it starts up. I can't say that I'm looking forward to it, it really just kinda scares me.

Distrait
So I'm starting to become a little more self-sufficient. I pay for my go card, i pay for my food. I bought my plane tickets to South Australia, I've saved enough spending money, I've got enough for my uni text books and I've got enough for my Playstation 3.
Work on Thursday was, well something. I laughed a lot, store room conversation about blow jobs made me cry from laughter. Though post closing a philosophical conversation was rough. It was about the topic i hate most, the realisations i never want to face, and i started to shake somewhat. It reminded me of my grade 12 English speech, the topic i couldn't talk about, cause i freaked out, i felt judged and i sped through though I'm pretty sure few people have forgotten it, much to my dismay. I dislike getting close to people to fast but i like the people i work with. It's just nothing something i really enjoy talking about nor do i intend on talking about again.
You know that facebook group that's titled something along the lines of 'Once i learn something about someone, i can't look at them the say way'? We'll it's true. It's not always a bad thing but it's like i wish i didn't hear this, i don't want to know about this. Now when i say anything around you i feel like utter shit. It's not about anyone that's reading this blog. I know that much for sure. I just wish there was a process for un-learning.
I leave for South Australia on Thursday, shall be exciting, though if only i could find my PSP.
