Someone did my washing today

Seriously. I took all my dirty clothes down in a pillowcase before brekkie this morning, and someone had put their clothes in the free one already. (for some reason you have to pay a dollar for all the others…) So I just left my stuff on the bench above the machine and went to get some toast. Typical Char, I forgot that I’d done that, and went shopping in town for a good 6 hours before I even realised it was still sitting on the bench. But by then I was wandering around Woolworths eating nuts (because why pay for them when they have self serve…?) so there was nothing I could do. Fast forward a few hours and I needed a sports bra for rugby training, yes- rugby, and I remembered that my stuff was still down there, unwashed, chilling out with everyones OMO on the shelf. I ran down to put it through, and as I walked in the door, I saw all my washing piled neatly on the opposite side of the room. And yes, it was washed, I’m not that stupid. Some phantom laundry bandit had gotten to my clothes and done them for me. And if it wasn’t my Mum then who was it?? This needs to be investigated further….

On another note, I had my first training session with the Sirens cheerleading squad tonight. It was so much fun! I love it. We did a few stunts and I felt like i got the hang of it pretty quickly, I wasn’t scared at all, I love being thrown in the air Smile Oh oh! You should see the outfits, they’re classic! it’s seriously like something straight out of bring it on, and we are starting to train for nationals which are July, but I don’t know how that’s all going to work around my trips back home in June etc. Uh oh. I guess I’ll have to wait and see.

Hope everyone had a great day! Sorry for the horribly un exciting blog post, but that seems to be a trend in my life at the moment. Haha. Going to give “pretty little liars” a go tonight, see what all the hype is about. Will let you know. Oh and before I go, if you haven’t yet checked out the wildfox catalogue online, please do. But I warn you that your self esteem will take a nose dive. But they’re just SO AMAZING! jfgbjklf  xxx

Fireworks.

So today I reached a new milestone in my university career...I fell asleep in my first lecture. HA. I know, pathetic hey. But it was seriously only for about 30 seconds, one of those times you don't realise you're actually asleep until you wake up and they've moved forward about 4 slides and you're like "was I..? no, yes? Ahh yeah pretty sure I just fell asleep" *looking around awkwardly hoping nobody noticed.* But apart from that, the day was pretty uneventful. Clearly!
Just got back from the uni club, we went over for a couple of hours but no one was really there because there is some footy match on tonight or something. Shoot. Just spilled avocado on my dress. Fuuuu- It's the nice little linen one I got made in Vietnam. Like, pale pink/peach colour. Pretty much the colour of my skin and makes me look like I'm naked all day. But not like it matters, people think I'm weird as anyway. It's so funny. Didn't realise how much of a creep I am (apparently) until I got here. Oh it's so funny, you guys seriously wouldn't believe it. I wear things some days just to freak them all out. The other day I wore my bright sun-yellow jacket that I bought at a Japanese thrift store in Cambodia, and you could literally see people straining to figure out what the hell I was thinking. They have this need to say something, anything, about my clothes and they decide that they won't go as far as to offer a compliment, but will satisfy this burning desire by making random, obvious, pointless statements.

"Wow. That's a yellow jacket..."
"Oh! So it is!" :|

"You're dress is really bright...""Oh damnit, I was hoping I'd put the black one on today..."

"You like dresses" 
"I also like it when windows are so clean that you think you can put your hand straight through..." 


But mostly people are sweet about it, I do look like a weirdo some days (compared to Townsville's traditional dress of t-shirt, shorts, thongs) and I've decided that when people are confronted with something out of the ordinary they tend to react with the first thing that pops into their heads. Even if it is a completely useless waste of breath.

The funniest thing is that I have somehow managed to convince the entire college that I am this super straight, non-drinking, non-partying, hellishly feminist (??), potentially lesbian, hyper fit person. WHO IS THIS GIRL I HAVE CREATED? Haha if only they knew me like most of you do. Hahahaha. I kind of like that people think I don't drink/socialise. Oh god. I'm going to have a proper night out and they'll be falling out of their socks. Not that I have even seen anyone in socks yet. Ah to be 17 again. Or was is 16? :S

This weekend I am getting a group of Med girls together to go out for a mexican feast. It will be the best ever. Ummm I think that's all that's been going on really.  Oh yeah, had an hour lecture today on penis', balls and the perineum. That's the gouch. It was delightfully awkward. Especially since the lecturer is this super hot latino woman who always wears purple. Like, without fail. It's adorable. She goes today, "Ok so is everyone listening? ok boys, BOYS are you paying attention. Watch me. This," she shines her laser on the slide, "is the clitoris, don't forget." It was hilarious.

I bought tickets to groovin the moo also. So if anyone wants to come and spend the weekend with me and come, you can totally crash at college ;)

Oh my god. STILL HAVE NOT GOT CAMERA REPLACEMENT. CGU; what the fuck. I'm sorry, but seriously. :| on a more positive note, they have taken so freaking long to replace it that the 1000D is no longer being made, so they have to get me a 500D. Sweet. So hopefully I will be able to post some new pics of college and stuff here.  Want to share all my buys with you. Because there are so many oppies!  Woohoo!

Here's a couple from O' week.
After jelly wrestling. 

Pub crawl. The theme was "Hollywood" and in true geek style I went as Luna Lovegood and no one knew who I was. Hahaha.
