What is it about people that sometimes some of them can annoy you so much...and you try your best to mean well. ?

Is it a lot to ask from a friend to catch up on some news ? But then again, I should understand that they might have their own busy lives....but from someone I consider a great friend, it can be disappointing. YBear..I guess as you said, you will not be visiting here...but if you do, you are great, a great friend of mine...and maybe we can catch up properly sometime...hope you do not get too depressed !!

But as fast as you can lose friends, it is so comforting that you can make friends too. Like JeffBear. Happy 21st Birthday. Haha...sad that we will only get one semester to actually know each other. But maybe we can become good friends too and who knows ? Can always chat on MSN too.

NiqBear's birthday last Friday was fun ! It was a pink and white themed party and we all had to dress up in pink and white.. !! Again lots of fun and again the whole gang was there...I really feel that we are starting to reminisce more and therefore find excuses to hang out again before the end of the semester...only LuciBear and SoBear were missing this time. But we got a sort of addition of DinoBear and AndBear even came ! Great fun...as he was more interesting and happy that he has been in a long time....in my opinion anyway.

ReidBear broke his leg playing soccer for IH on Saturday..a tragedy and will miss his witty sarcasm...he gets to miss Derivatives Midsem though lucky thing...although I have to start studying for it tomorrow cause I might get a three day week then. Hope he does not feel too much pain. Ekiden was also done this weekend as well as Soiree. What a very busy weekend it is !

Also spent two nights in 401 already...with the 401 family...incidentally pronounced...foi...and my very own apartment is called troi I guess since it is 301. Had some food and fondue !! Yum....again....then a bit of bridge and then poker with my new poker set, a birthday present from FredBear..it was really fun playing with chips...I probably should not mention this but I won 15 dollars...beating out KaiBear, WoobyBear and HigginsBear. Guess all that work at pokerstars really was worth it after all. Could it be a career though ? I wonder.

Wonder if should go to Tasmania and Sydney for a holiday break. It will not be expensive since will be going by car..and in a group..still....cause if I stay in IH I have to pay anyway..am still thinking though...it is a lot of trouble...and I do have that REF assignment....Pondering...

And all that trouble taken to know about cricket paid off...you see KennyBear had to design a programme based on cricket and I had a fun ten minutes explaining it to him. I guess being full of trivia is fun after all !! It takes me back to the time when I was on the houseboat in Easter and we joined a trivia quiz at the local pub....

The Australian way of life is addictive......

However I surprised myself one day when I thought..."Since I cannot really actually stay here anyway...I should not worry or think about things that could have happened had I been able to stay and instead just enjoy these last few weeks". How very wise of me.... !
