if it is born in flames

4, 4, 4 & 5. my GPA is shot to hell, but at least I passed every one of those devil subjects.

*sigh of relief*

Firstly, thank you to all who came to my place on Saturday night to help me drink myself stupid. Muchly appreciated. And may I say, mission accomplished. And who knew that a night of outrageous drinking was not going to help my immune system kick my already, slightly death-like illness? You learn something new every day.

Tomorrow is my last shift at woolies and it feels good. It's slightly embarrassing when everyone asks me how long I've been there and I have to tell them almost five years. >.< Oh well, freedom is fast approaching. This means that I have Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday off before I start the new job, so if anyone wants to do anything, let me know.

Hope everyone else's lives are peachy keen.

Watching six movies in one day makes me feel slightly awesome.

Eating my body weight in junk food makes me feel slightly sick.

Yesterday was the best first day of holidays evorz. Chillaxin', mocking the Bourne Identity and drinking malibu should be a regular occurrence methinks.

Today was slightly less awesome. I cleaned up a kid's puke. And another kid's urine. High five for the grossest Woolworths day on record.

Other than that, life is still boring.

I am turning into a boy! Last night I let Josh choose what dvd we were gonna get while I showered. He came back with The Condemned. I thought I'd hate it, I actually kind of liked it. Admittedly, at parts I cringed and felt perhaps a little bit ill, but overall I really did quite like it. And not even for mocking value. I was surprised. Moral to the story: sarah is turning into a boy.

In other news, freedom! let me know when you people are free and we can catch up. Miss you all tonnes and tonnes.

I am alive and updating!

I had a job interview with the Public Trustee and I got it. I start on the 7th. Nice job, pretty office, good pay, weekends and evenings back to myself. How exciting is that?!? (Hint: The answer is a lot)

I have one more exam to go and let me assure you, I am very, very well over it. If I pass this semester it really will be a miracle of the gods. Nothing else would be able to explain it = P.

Anyway, the next fortnight are going to be a social binge for me, so PLEASE let me know when you're all free. I would love to see you since I probably haven't in, oh, I dunno, forever.

love love.

Mon, 09 Jun 2008 00:05:10 GMT

hey boys and girls

i'm going awol for a while. just thought i'd let you all know i'm still alive though.

love love.

Fri, 06 Jun 2008 22:48:39 GMT

Okay, I'm really over this whole university thing. Seriously. I just don't care about learning. That kind of makes me sad, but I'm hoping that by stepping back a bit next semester I'll get into it a bit more. Haha, who knows.

Nothing much else has been happening. Thursday nights (pub & soccer) are becoming a little too regular for my liking. I'm feeling quite the bogan, really. Who am I kidding, I secretly love it. Plus I won $30 on the pokies the other night. AND, I'm feeling pretty proud of myself, I haven't had a drink in like 3 weeks. Shut up, that's a pretty big achievement for me.

In other news, how perfect is this weather? I wanted to lounge about in bed all day, instead, I dragged myself up and started studying. Man. 14 days until freedom. = ) = ) = )

Thu, 05 Jun 2008 21:51:34 GMT

Green tea has pretty much become my new favourite thing. It makes me happy cos it's caffeine free, and full of funfunfun anti-oxidants so I don't even feel bad drinking one zillion cups of it while I study.

Speaking of study, well, isn't that a disaster. I ended up going out with the boys last night instead of studying, and all I really did was sit there and think about studying. Man, that was a waste of a night. I really shouldn't have even bothered.

In other news: job interview next week. Public Trust Office, just general office-bitch work, but a pretty nice pay-rise, and I get to work in an office and wear pretty clothes and not ever have to go into woolworths again if I get it. *fingers crossed*.

Today I am just a little bit grumpy. That is all.

Mon, 26 May 2008 00:28:55 GMT

what the hell is wrong with me? how did i not know that my final exam for ADR was multiple choice? that makes me pretty happy. I've never had a final multiple choice exam before. it makes me feel slightly better that I have done . . . nothing for the course since the death-assignment.

other than that in my excessive, sleep-deprived, over emotional state yesterday I managed to almost cut my finger off. now it hurts like a bitch and I cannot type properly. go me.

Sun, 25 May 2008 08:24:55 GMT

I am so tired it's ridiculous. Yet, for some reason, my body refuses to allow me to sleep. I have no idea why. Josh, being his typical, egomaniac self, thinks it has something to do with him.

It might, but I'm not sure. I think I just have a lot of things floating around in my head that I'm refusing to process (for whatever reason)? All I know is that it sucks. Royally. I am so exhausted I'm crazy overemotional. I got sent home from work today for looking like crap and not actually being able to function coherently.

ALL I WANT TO DO IS SLEEP. WHY IS THAT SO DIFFICULT. grarghen.

Thu, 22 May 2008 03:19:35 GMT

My grandad is so sick I think I might cry.

Wed, 21 May 2008 02:40:55 GMT

Wow, I really haven't updated in a while, have I?

life has been going okay. I'm so over university that it's not even funny. I'm aiming for fours this semester, I only care about passing. Life Plan: Next semester go part time at uni, work full time, socialise to the max and live a little.

I'm feeling a little bit stagnate at the moment, but I'm hoping once uni's over that that will change, at least a little bit.

I kind of just want to disappear away for a weekend, get in the car and drive. I don't really care where to or who with (there would have to be someone though, or I might get scared), I just want to pack my toothbrush and some really warm clothes and . . . go. Alas, that too will have to wait until after exams.

Joshua-face and I are going relatively well. Except for the minor fact that within a month he'll actually be sales repping, which means that he'll be in the northern rivers area, which is around Armidale, which means I'll see him even less than I do now. Not the most awesome of outcomes, but hey, thems the breaks.

Woolworths is. . . well, same shit different day. It is getting easier to take now that I know I'm leaving so very, very soon. It'll be weird to leave behind what is essentially 5 years of my life though. I mean, I practically grew up in that store. Admittedly, there aren't many people left from when I started, but it's more just, I dunno, people who've seen me change and people who represent different stages of my life. Leaving it'll be a little bit sad. Then again, I just have to remember how many times they've made me want to stab myself in the face and it doesn't seem so sad after all.

Anyway, on a lighter note, everyone knows Qld's gonna win tonight, right?

Mon, 05 May 2008 22:07:35 GMT

Just a heads up to the UQ students that final exam timetablse are up on my.uq.edu.au

As for me: the 9th, 17th, 19th and 21st, so not a bad effort. Especially if you ignore the fact I have to sit an exam on a public holiday.

Now, back to the death lit review. fun times.

Sun, 04 May 2008 23:08:30 GMT

he brought my dinosaurs back.

Sat, 26 Apr 2008 14:44:21 GMT

I'm as drunk as humanly possible. At Armidale. With an assignment due on Monday that's barely started. Fuck I love life.

Long weekends rock my world.

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 13:08:04 GMT

I am a little bit sick of having to live up to everybody's expectations. If I have to hear one more time "Sarah, that isn't like you" I will probably punch that person in the face. Because you know what, this is me. If you think it's not then guess who hasn't been paying attention.

Why is it so difficult for me to just. . . be?

grargh.

Sun, 13 Apr 2008 05:27:47 GMT

So, I crashed my car. On the gateway. In the middle lane. That was awesome. I just ran up the back of a stupid Lancer, and my car looks SO much worse than hers, but hers was shinier so I'm pretty sure that that's going to set me back at least $1500. She had a towbar though, so the little corolla looks like absolute shit. Ash (josh's brother) straightened out my bonnet a little though, so now it doesn't look AS bad. That being said. . .ooh, still bad.

Other than that, Hm. I was going to say life's been going okay, but it really hasn't. Uni has been sucking out my soul. I'm pretty sure I failed the exam I sat on Thursday. I really am over uni, I just, am sick of it. I don't want to have to be juggling things anymore. Doing that really, really bugs me. Grargh.

Work is going okay though, and Josh is still going pretty decently. Life's never dull, let's put it that way.

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 07:11:51 GMT

Wow, long time no update.

Life is pretty average, no dizzying highs but no plummetting lows either. I am starting to realise that my parents actually have no idea who I am or what I'm like, and that I can't even get mad since it's about 98% my own fault.

Uni is awful, but that's probably because I'm the worst student in existence. There are still two text books sitting at QU books that I'm yet to pick up. Fuck, I rock. Midsemesters are going to rape me. Violently.

Socialness is raging though, I don't remember ever being this happily exhausted with social engagements. It's kind of awesome.

Work is retarded and I can't wait for Renee to leave.

That is all. = )

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 21:46:10 GMT

Sometimes I wonder if I make smart life choices. Okay, so I know a lot of the time I don't. I'm impulsive, irrational, I can be insanely immature and I so often make choices with my heart rather than my head (my footy tipping would make that more than evident).

I guess I'm more just wondering, how do you all know if you've made a right decision? Is it just a feeling? Does the right decision always feel right, or is it more a case of common sense and using your head rather than your heart?

/ angst.

Sun, 16 Mar 2008 09:20:17 GMT

Life is topsy turvy right now and I ache. A lot.

Sigh.

Thu, 13 Mar 2008 00:01:20 GMT

I remember when children used to like me. When did that disappear?!

I stayed at Josh's last night and his nephew and niece (Lachlan and Katie) came over this morning. Katie's about 12 and Lachlan's only 2. They mean the world to Josh and they adore him. Apparently they aren't quite as fond of me. I made Kaitlan ridiculously uncomfortable and Lachlan screamed at me to "GO 'WAY". Yeah, I was feeling the love.

Is it wrong that I skipped another lecture today? I missed one yesterday for my job interview, one on monday because I felt like death and two last week out of sheer laziness. I'm going to the tutes though! I promise. I can't believe I'm slacking already. Worst uni student of all time.

Meanwhile, I'm totally going shopping tonight because I get to go to a cocktail party on Saturday and I have to find something pretty to wear. Yay. = )

Life is pretty sweet right now.

Wed, 12 Mar 2008 05:35:30 GMT

Today I had a job interview. It was for a firm at Indooroopilly and it was all exciting and stuff. Until the actual interview. He asked me:
1) How many hours do you work at woolies now?
2) How does someone manage to graduate mid-year?
3) What do you do for fun?

How can an interviewer ask you ONLY three questions, let alone those three questions? Blerk. I don't really have high hopes of this one, but that could be because all five of the women I saw working there were blonde. One was Russian. Need I say more?

Stupid male employers.

Thu, 06 Mar 2008 23:36:41 GMT

So I'm pretty happy these days. Uni's going decently (even if I did skip it on Wednesday, oops), work doesn't make me want to stab my eyes out and Josh & I are going spectacularly well.

I may be becoming a slightly excessive drinker these days, but as a general rule, I'm okay with that. Dammit. I also just remembered that at karaoke last night I told Kirst and her Josh that I'd do the dishes for a week if they both sang. And they did. So now I have to do the dishes. That's kinda sad. Mainly because I hate dishes.

In summary: I am happy, but now I have to go do dishes.

Sat, 01 Mar 2008 04:59:20 GMT

So I've been kind of slack lately. But lacking internet makes it hard to stay on top of things, sadly enough.

Not a lot has been going on. Uni's gone back and I have a lecturer that I'd very much like to bang. It's not my fault he's English and young (for a law lecturer) and cute! I'm only human!! My subjects kind of make me want to die, but I've heard that all of them are impossible to fail, which makes me a whole lot happier.

Life is kind of dull, really.
