Like an asian gambler with their child in the backseat of a car in the Crown car park, I've neglected this little old place. One thousand and one apologies followed by some nice prawns with one thousand island dressing.
Last week I completed my final university exam ever, five years of biff, bang and kazzow. It was quite fitting really, for my last exam I decided to get caught in traffic and end up being 9 minutes late, having 1 minute of reading time and then 3 hours of writing for Advanced Taxation Law, well 2 hours and 40 minutes of writing because I managed to finish it early. What that means in terms of how I went in the exam is unknown, either I understood everything or I missed an entire question worth 60% and now have to go to summer uni in order to graduate.
So what happens now? Well after surviving five years of university I will have a nice double degree in Business Systems and Law. But more importantly I get the letters; 'BBSys, LLB' after my name. Because that's what more important, getting as many letters after your name as possible. Next will probably be a 'CA' but I'm also keeping my options open towards a 'MBA', 'PHD', 'OA' or 'B/AR/CR'. But I have some graduate big boy work coming up in 2007 but in the meantime, I still have kiddie time to mess around in, 4 months of it in fact.
With 4 months of summer holidays, I really should do something productive with my time. A list would be appropriate at this time. Indeed.
Summer To Do List
- Spend an entire day watching disney cartoons (blame this one on playing Kingdom Hearts 2)
- Finish Kingdom Hearts 2
- Spend at least a month agonising whether to get the nintendo wii, and then not get it
- Spend the summer looking at 24" iMacs and then maybe getting one
- Learn how to drive a manual car (I kick arse driving manual in my dreams)
- Swim the Lorne Pier to Pub in January (no really, this time i will)
- Get into shape so I can swim the Pier to Pub
- Play more squash
- Play even more golf
- Play good golf and not just hitting the ball into the water all the time
- Learn how to play something decent on the piano (can't even play chopsticks properly...)
- Go to Japan and learn what it feels like to be tall for once
- Go to Malaysia for a few days and eat, shop and play ten-pin bowling
- Learn how to cook something edible to people other than myself
- Move out
- Hang out with friends
- Get drunk
- Get drunk while hanging out with friends
- Get drunk while playing golf with friends
- Spend time with my girl
So that’s my to do list. Reality dictates that I'll probably won't get around to doing everything, but I'll be trying my bestest. True the past week has been three things; work, kingdom hearts 2 and tv, but once Lano & Woodley finishes on Saturday, I'll be free to play even more ps2.
Anyway, I'll be back soonish
