Well, it's been a long time, but so much has happened.
I'm now living Harry-Potter style in the smallest room known to man - mostly because I had to escape this dude who was obsessed with me. He's this Egyptian guy whos lived in Oz for 20 years and has not intergrated at all, so I found myself explaining certain aspects of the Australian Male to him, including the simple truth that drinking, in most cases, does not instigate madness and that sometimes people are not monogamous. Strange times.

I'm also looking for some kind of a job - preferably one in which I am exchanged funds for serices, preferably in the retail or media sectors. It's a bitch looking at this time of year, though - all those other uni students looking for casual jobs and adding to my housing problem. I should probably just bite the bullet, get off my lazy arse and copy some reumes. But then, I'm not sure even my nearest and dearest wuld recognise me anymore.' Tis a conundrum.

As mentioned, I finally got into Uni too - and I'm doing a Bachelor of Media Studies, which allows me to spend a year in Edinburgh, so I can freeze my tits off walking the haunted castles and indulging in delicious home-grown scotch whisky. Mmm! The real reason I'm going to this tiny city is to indulge in the festival ambience - with huge events such as The Fringe, Comedy and city festival, this place is the second most visited in Britain. Not to mention no-one knows how to chuck a New Year's Party like the Scots - and before you go eeewww haggis is one of the most delicious things I've ever tasted. If you get a chance, give it a go (after all, animals use sausages to push shit through). Maybe I'll even get to work on the festival promotion commitee. Fingers crossed!
