Absolutely ridiculous. It's mid-December, in Melbourne, and my feet are cold, and I'm sniffling. And I'm wearing a hoodie already. I was actually shivering before when I was taking the dog out to pee. This weather is not only unseasonable, it's highly unreasonable.
I had something interesting that I was going to blog about, but I've forgotten most of it. So I guess it'll just have to be this video for today.
The ending. A truly beautiful moment in music.
For some reason, I got all into Coldplay again yesterday. Just started humming it for no apparent reason.
Just for the record, I like their first album the best. The end of this song kind of reminds me of those good days.
I just had a brilliant thought as I was about to hit the post button. A more appropriate Coldplay song to be listening to right now would be 'Shiver'. Oh (cold)snap. I'll stop making lame frigid-temperature-related puns now, even though they're really cool. Oh dear.
Maybe more Coldplay to follow tomorrow. Or, *shock horror*, something that actually makes sense. Like that thing I was supposed to be blogging about in the first place.
Currently listening to: Violet Hill by Coldplay
Word of the Day: Shiver

Witnessing failure
Last night, I was a witness for the witness examination thing. I was partnered with the great James Cheng. Or, he was partnered with me, depending on your perspective and your view of who is more important.
We lost. Hence the title.
Oh my, I am a pun machine. Pun after pun after pun.
At least he wasn't late this time. That would've been a debacle.
Anyway, back to last night. I thought I pulled off my part pretty well. I reckon I was a pretty convincing French teacher/non-stalker. Even though James was supposed to...um...protect me, there were a few moments when I felt an urge to defend myself. Damn stupid personality flaws.
But well done to Sammmy and Amy, henceforth known as the Dynamic Duo, for making it into the next round.
I thought we beat the other guy. But it's done on some dodgy point system. And our judge was like "I'm marking you guys more harshly than usual. And I don't know why."
I would also like to ponder about why all my assignments and tests seem to be due at the same time. Every single time. It makes an otherwise great semester a bit of a drag. Well, management does that too. But mainly everything due at the same time.
