Not Much

Not much happened this week, I have just been moping around the place….

I was thinking about going to heaven / timewarp next week, however I discovered, due to some ‘bitch fight’ between the owners and government, that they are closed for what almost looks like an indefinite period. (They are holding it somewhere else, but I don’t think it will be as good as their original location)

I got my graduation photos this week, and I do know I promised that I would put them up on the net, but at the moment my pc is away being fixed, so I promise they will be up when all is back in order (even though I look like a complete idiot in the photos)

I have a scary amount of uni work coming up, but I always see my uni workload as scary..

Yesterday I decided I wanted to clear my head, so I went on a walk, and before I knew it I was back at home after a 2 hour period of exercise in which I cleared out my head. It was cool, I was not exhausted, but that was probably due to the fact that I trundled along.
Anyhoo, not much else to say on my blog for the moment…. Cheerio

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Hmmm… I miss my dog…….. I have not been ok writing about it all up until this point in time, I might just write a couple of things, you’ll don’t need to know the whole story, so I will not..

Since his death I have been thinking allot, however it has been hard. I have felt a wide range of emotions, happiness that he is now no longer in pain, that he got to live such a long life, that we could have lost him when he was a puppy and my sister jumped on him; Guilt that I did not sped much time with him over his last weekend, that I had not been nicer to him, that I am portraying him in my times of happiness; Sadness that he is no longer with me, that he has missed some nice spring days, that he was not his ultimate former active self in his last couple of years.

It has been hard, I miss him so much, I keep on feeling like going outside to go and let him inside, because I miss him, and a fraction of a second after that thought, I remember he is no longer with me.

But all in all, I guess this all part of life. My dog lived a relatively nice life and I was special in his life, he trusted me allot (I was the only person he trusted to go to be let outside to go to the toilet, as I was the only person he trusted to let him back inside.)

Anyway, enough of that.

On Saturday morning I went to get 2 of my wisdom teeth pulled out. The anaesthetist came across as a little agro, oh well, that’s just him I guess, the dentist was quite nice, and that’s what counts I guess) The operation was fun, one moment I was breathing in gas, and the next minute I was wakening up form a dream, how cool hey…

I was going to keep my teeth, the dentist asked me if I wanted to keep them, and I said that I did not really need them and I would understand it would be a bit hard for them to collect them if they were cut into 50 pieces, well after I woke up he said that he did not keep them as “I said that I did not want them if they were cut into 50 different pieces” Grrrr….

I was actually told off in the recovery room as I was looking around too much, medical people are just no fun at all. It was so interesting to look around, and I cannot remember being in recovery in my previous operations.

Anyway, I'm recovering slowly, I’ve had a numb left side of my tongue (and part of my chin) 12 hours after my operation (this scared me, I though I had a damaged facial nerve. This cleared up though). Since I cannot eat hard foods, I have to eat soft / mushy / liquididy foods. To my happiness, today I discovered that Caramel Cheesecakes from the Cheesecake shop fit this description, Yum what a nice diet.

Anyway, I guess I’ll keep you all informed, cheerio.

Showtime

Hey, WOW…. Yesterday was crazy!!

I went to the show yesterday with my friend from high school and his girlfriend. It was cool, we walked around the show and saw a whole heap of things. I was amazed at what the show was like, it is much better that I can remember it being (However, the last time I went to the show was about 10 years ago) It has been cleaned up and modernised a whole heap.

At about 5 pm my friends Tim & Khun came along and met me, and my other friends departed.

Usually I'm not a rides person, However I did not care what would happen to me yesterday, so in my “fearless mode” I decided to g on a fair few rides. Yep, my first time at riding crazy rides..

I was fortunate enough to go on rides with both Khun and Tim.. They were brilliant, I would probably say that I should have gone on them before, but I would have been too scared to enjoy them, and probably not enjoyed them that much.

The fireworks were also cool, by the sounds of what they were like previously, they were not as commercial as they had been previously. Now, I have not mentioned that Khun’s niece accompanied us to the show, and I should have. She was soo cool, full of fun, and so funny full of cool reactions.

Ohhh, I just noticed that I got a bit of a tan yesterday from being out in the sun, cool. Another cool thing that I have been up to was to attend my second cousins first ever birthday party. It was really nice to see him on his first birthday, and his 2 year old brother, they are so cool!!! They were on the go the whole time, however they took a couple of nocks but rebounded without issue. My proud moment of the day was when they were playing with some really cool, but loud toys, My cousin said she was going to take out the batteries to get a little bit of silence, but I suggested that they could take out the speakers, so yay, they now still have really cool toys, without the sound though, but still cool.

anyhoo, enough from me for now,
Cheerio

Graduation

YAY, Today, I graduated from my Undergraduate degree. So, now I have my Bachelor of Business (Management Information Systems) degree.

At first I though I would have not been at my ceremony with many people I know, however there were quite a few people there, so I was happy as I got to catch up with some old friends, and did not have to spend a whole heap of time alone :-P

However, I have to include my little complaining slant on life, and well graduations are a good target for this. As I am aware, university graduations are meant to be very prestigious and ceremonial. However my university tend to destroy all of this with their usual lack of detail, clutching for money, and ability to deal with people in it’s tight & bulk natured procedural manner. I say, bring back the pageantry and prestige to graduations, make a huge song and dance about it, make people feel special about the graduation, and tell people the story and meaning behind graduations.

However, This is just me complaining, I was, in fact, so excited / happy / nervous that when I went to get my award I was in an auto pilot mode that I did not realise what I was doing and therefore cannot remember much of what I was doing.

As I am continuing on my studies at university I guess the ceremony did not involve the normal amount of excitement that would be usually experienced at a graduation ceremony, celebrating the end of studies. Although this also links back to my previous issue concerning the lack of pageantry, If I were to graduate at the start of the year, I would graduate some 4 ish months after I finish my coursework.

Anyhoo, here comes the spooky part of my graduation, I decide to pay a somewhat exorbitant amount of money to have my parchment framed (The frame had the universities logo on it, cool hey). Specifically, I decided to have it framed in what I thought was tortishell wood. However I went to the Hogs Breath Café at Glenelg to celebrate my graduation with my parents (they also went to the ceremony), there I had a Stake (medium rare, I was good and did not destroy it to the usual level I have it overcooked) with a Hickory Smoked Sauce.

Now, I was amazed when I was eating the stake, I felt something very familiar, extremely familiar, then it hit me, the stake tasted like my parchment frame (no I have not tasted my frame, but the scene of smell and taste are closely linked and I had previously been dreading the pungent smell the frame was giving off.) After a little research, I found out that the wood is actually advertised as a walnut wood, not a hickory wood, I was upset. Astonishingly, when writing this, through my research I found out the Hickory Tree belongs to the walnut family, So there is a strong link, and maybe the frame is actually made from Hickory wood.

Anyway, enough gabbling from me for now…. Pictures shall accompany this blog soon I guess.

Cheerio

Ohhhh…

Ohhhh…

I graduate tomorrow, Although this is not a huge celebration, I am still at uni completing the rest of my studies. Tomorrow, I will be getting my Bachelor of Business (Management Information Systems).

Now, I also have my mid semester break coming up, however It will be destroyed from the start, I am having two of my wisdom teeth out on Saturday morning, the first day of my holidays.

I think that’s how everything is going at the moment though, downhill, oh well....

Cheerio
