One of those days

Aussie word for the day: Poofter = homosexual male, "He's cute, but he's a poofter."

We've all had 'em, bad days.. this is the first week when things are starting to not seem so good. I even cried a little. I looked for bikes on Monday and came up with nothing. Three bikes and none of them were good... frustration! It was so easy to buy a used TV, but a used bike, noooo! Monday night was good! I let off a little frustration by partying with my roommates for my roommate Frankie's birthday. We had 20 or so people over to our unit for drinks and nibbly's (snacks). Alcohol, food, and friends makes it all better.

Today, however, is another story. I couldn't get into the bathroom this morning because one of my roommates was in there every time I went to use it, I missed my fitness workshop at the gym, which I had to make an appointment for, because I forgot to turn my alarm clock on, then sat in an empty classroom for 20 minutes for my class to start and realized when I looked at my watch that my alarm clock had been reset an hour ahead of time, so I was an hour early for my class and could've made it to the fitness workshop afterall. I left the classroom and came back an hour later at the correct time only to find out that I shouldn't be enrolled in that class at all because it is a thesis prep course that only 2nd semester students should be taking. Aaaargh!!! So I spent the next 2 hours sorting out which class to add in it's place and then withdrawing from the thesis course.

After my day, I was in desperate need of a drink, instead I just ate some really fattening food. Everyone here says they've gained weight when they've travelled here before. I think that's the way it is anywhere you go, so look forward to some really fat photos of me to come. Just joking, I'm really hoping the gym will prevent that from happening.
