21st - 22nd July 2005

My how the year is flying past me. Oh and how well it does when you are on holiday. I am poor again, awaiting cash from my slow to pay 'wait 8 weeks for your first cheque' employers (I hope I didnt give them the URL for this site). If so well fine - you should hear it straight. Who on this whole planet can afford an 2 month break in theri cash flow? I am surving it though. Regular private lessons provide me enough to subsist. In fact I am planning on buying a laptop soon. Just a Pentium One. Nothing fancy. It is going for Y9000 or about AU$110. I offered him Y6000 (AU$75). I am still awaiting for his reply. It will serve my purposes well enough, that is for pyhton programming and reading PDf's.

Olivia is working tonight. She and I have had a great realxing week. We have been able to spend more time together now that i am hime in the mornings. She and i are looking into studying at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) next year. It has this great creative industries faculty that encompasses performance and visual art. We would not be doing the same course and maybe olivia will try a join some Theatre Company (add name here). It is all speculation at this point.

Oh and I am beginning to play DnD again. I have found a group of x5 English speakers (x2 Canadians, an American, a Phillipino and an Irishman) who play regularly. I know its nerdy but i cant resist the opportunity to socialise with intelligent, creative, native English speakers and it gives me something relaxing to do on my holiday.
