Work and stuff

So yeah, work.

It's been pretty fun, actually. My team's really fun to work with, and the other vaccies are pretty cool as well. I've been working at the Hyatt for the last week, which has been pretty awesome. My buddy Daniel's been spotting tennis stars all over the joint, but none for me so far.

The only thing that's stressing me out a bit is the study that I have to do up until Friday, but other than that, it's all cool.

Something exciting happened! The rear end of my car got swiped off by an 87-year-old driver while my mum was driving it. First weekend I've had free for a bazillion weeks, and my car is out of action.

Typical.

Thankfully, nobody was hurt, including Michelle, who was in the car at the time.

It also made me marvel at the genius of Toyota engineering. The back of the car just came off at the joints, resulting in less damage to the car body as a whole, and less impact to the driver. It's also pretty easy to repair. Essentially, you just pop the rear back on, and away you go.

But yeah, kind of sucks.

Two more nights of study to go!

But it's provocative!



Been playing this with alarming frequency in my car for the past two weeks or so. Very catchy beat and pseudo-hookline. Oh, and Jay-Z and Kanye. On the same track. And random guy in the middle of the song.
I'm liable to go Michael, take your pick, Jackson, Tyson, Jordan
Awesome line.

In other news, my Week from Hell is going pretty badly. Stuff is turning out to be harder than I anticipated. The midsem test for Corp Fi was ok. Pretty sure I screwed up the last question hard, but did alright overall hopefully.

Time to soldier on. Or perhaps sleep. Sleep seems quite appealing right about now.
