Well, I'm back. I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to write, so sry if this just ends up being a pointless and random ream of shit that achieves nothing except clogging up everyone's friend page.

Well, today was rather good, in spite of having to get up at 5:30 this morning to get to a class that I slept through anyway, then having no other classes until 4 this afternoon. Still, in between those times, I started my job tutoring a bloke named Nick in Visual Basic and Java for his TAFE course. It makes me feel smart tutoring a guy considerable larger and older than me. Apparently, he sees me at the 'road runner of touch typing' :P I just had to put that in, it was a classic line. Still, he's a good bloke and $20/hour is always good :D :D :D

During that 6 hour break, apart from meeting and working with Nick, I met up with some MedSocians, ate sausages and an off lasagne. We played some cards (I'm still the undefeated bullshit player :D) idly chatted then went inside, where Jen, Alla and myself watched some Dr Who, before buggering off to the library. I thought my wireless card had gone missing, so I panicked for a while before eventually finding it in a weird section of my bag that I rarely use :S Oh well, glad to have it back *hugs wireless interface card in a geeky fashion*

Yesterday was Odin day with MedSoc too :D :D :D Much fun was had, to be followed by the AGM. After Thyri got president (praise to the queen), I kinda cared very little and went half to sleep. The day before, some of us went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and got loaded on chocolate too :D. Best quote of the day would have to go to James the younger for "I'd like $2 worth of drinkage" at the candy bar. Go him. That's why I nominated him for almost every position at the AGM last night.

On a completely unrelated note, I am noticing that many people wish to use me as little more than a shoulder to cry on. Now, I want to clarify that I don't mind this in the slightest and want to help my friends in whatever way I can. However, more and more often, rather than approaching me like one would any friend and politely asking if they would care to talk to them about an issue that is causing difficulty, people are walking up to me and listing their problems in such a way that it'd be really awkward and crual just to tell them to fuck off, then leaving without so much as a 'thank-you'. I know, that last sentence was grammatically awful, but if you don't like it... meh. But anyway, back to the topic. It is really gratifying to help those and to think that people see me as being compassionate and helpful enough to want to help them in such a way, often dropping what I'm doing to do so (many people would object to what I just said, but there are some who know that side of me). However, it's just really irritating to think that a few people are starting to take that more caring side of me for granted.

Similarly, I am happy to announce that due to my concentrated efforts (and both ppl involved can vouch that it was because of me) over the last twelve months, my good friends RS and AS are going out :D go both of you. Now, here's the moral dilemma, how am I supposed to feel about this? I have contributed to the love lives among the closer of my friends over the years, while my own lies in shambles. Should I be happy and satisfied, a little bitter, or a mixture of both? I'm thinking the latter. Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those listless fools who believes they need somebody else to validate their existance, but it'd be nice to have someone there with whom to share my petty achievements and better moments in my life, and she could do the same. Damn, what the hell am I writing? *slaps self repeatedly* *regains composure*

Anyway, there was a lot more I wanted to say, but I just looked back at how bloody long this entry is thuse far. So I am going to leave the obligatory irritating quiz and bid you all a good night.

[EDIT]: I apologise for the pointless and soppy shit that I wrote in the sixth paragraph of the above entry. I realise now why I was so bitter about AS and RS. The fact remains that in spite of my efforts to bring them together, RS now seems insistent on tearing the two of them away from me. He has simply been flaunting her in my general direction for the last day or so, trying to drive me away as quickly as possible. I have on a good source (AS) that he sees me as "threat to [his] newer, happier life." What utter bullshit. I have been supporting them for years and was the main reason they are now together. Anyway, I am happy for both of them and have just realised that this edit was only supposed to be a sentence or two and that I've written too much again. Ciao
