So... I totally survived! YAY!
Actually, as soon as I got to the tram I was fine. I don't know why I was so worried in the first place.
So... I'm pretty sure none of you are interested, but I want to document my day somehow, so cyberspace seems as good as anywhere.
I apologise in advance for the length. I completely understand if you don't hang around.
Ok, so I woke up at 7.30am which I was thoroughly annoyed at coz I had set my alarm for 8am. So I lie there with my eyes shut for about 20mins hoping to fall back asleep. I was unsuccessful, so I got up and opened my curtains. I put on the "Today Show", got back into bed and watched the news.
After about 20mins of that I decided I was hungry so got up and made breakfast. Slight side note here, I'm really pissed off about the set up of the apartment, because I have to have to range hood fan going just to make toast or else the fire alarm goes off. Not happy.
Anyways, so I went and had a shower and got dressed. I had to empty my bins, so I walk all the way downstairs and when I get outside it is FREEZING, so a change of outfit was in order. I was much happier with my second outfit anyways. The first one was try hardy.
I had to go down to the newsagency to get a tram ticket, which by the way cost me an absolute fortune for a weekly pass. Anyway, I also bought an "Empire" magazine and I was all excited because they had put an extra issue in there so I was getting two for the price of one. So I walk up to the counter and go to pay with my card, but of course the don't do credit, which is the only one my stupid debit card works with, so I had to trot back to Westpac and trot back with some cash, but they were all very nice.
So then I head back to the apartment because my Mum and Dad want to see me before I go. Luckily I checked the tram timetable because the next tram was at 10am and the next one would get me there too late.
So I bustle my arse to the apartment to find Mum and Dad out the front. I explain I have to get going, but they want to take a photo of me before I go because they have one for every year of my schooling career. Major embarrassment. So I quickly smile, give them a kiss on the cheek and head back to the tram stop.
While I was waiting (stupid trams always running late) this guy comes and sits on the seat and he looks just like this guy I know from Shepp. Like, dead ringer. So now I'm trying to slyly look at him as we get on. It wasn't him, but it took me so long to work that out that he was started to look at me weird. Luckily we were at Deakin by this point, so it didn't matter.
I love the Burwood campus. It really felt like home. I finally made my way through the crowds to my host program and sat down. I looked around at the people there and I couldn't help but think "really? you want to do drama?". I know that sounds awful, but none of them looked the type. I dunno, but I met some lovely people. Everyone was so nice and willing to chat. Absolutely loved it. I guess that's one nice thing about us drama geeks, we're all quiet loud, open and confident.
We took a tour of the campus, which was pointless because none of us could hear what our host had to say. It was kinda nice to just tune out though. Made me feel really good. Like I was back in high school.
After that I had to get my student id card because I wasn't there for enrolment. Bastards took the worst photo of me ever.
I then went to check out the social groups and all that. None took my fancy... Well there was one...Yes everyone, I am a member of the Deakin Glee Club!! HELLS YEAH!
After that I got on the tram for home, but I saw a Macca's on the way so I stopped there for lunch and read my Empire magazines. OH! By the way! The universe is trying to tell me something! You might recall earlier I mentioned that I got a second Empire magazine with my April issue... Well... When I bought it I couldn't see what the second one was. I opened it up and was so excited to find it was the issue about Sherlock Holmes. Beautiful pictures of RDJ! It's meant to be! LOL!
Um... what was I talking about?
Oh! Yeah so I ate my McD's and I felt guilty for it, so I walked home. Which wasn't too bad actually.
So I sat around in my apartment and watched "Game 6" for about an hour and then it was back to Deakin for a lecture. Major boredom. I left after the guy spoke about Drama.
That's what I love about Uni. It's your own responsibility. You can do what you want.
So yeah. After that Mum and Dad came to see me. They had bought me a surprise from their shopping travels. They got me this lovely office chair. It is bliss! So much more comfortable than the shitty broken one that came with this place. They also got me a beanbag! Bless! That's why I love them.
So my rents stayed for tea, then Mum and I watched Vampire Diaries.
So all in all, it was really quite a good day.
I can't wait for classes.
