That Funky Phone Monkey...

the first truly gruelling shift in the trenches of the call-centre, absolutely soul-destroying amount of rejections... almost. I swear I could hear one 16 yo girl blushing from adelaide at the sound of my voice (It's not worthy of it), and while there weren't as many funny rejections last night, there was an absolutely gold dude... I'm so answering my phone that way next time a friend calls. Too difficult to display properly... you'll just have to ring.

so yeah, justifying this immense delay from blogging.

last one on tuesday right? wednesday I was advising the defence government on which position it should take re: US request for additional troops in afghanistan (assignment). wednesday at uni from 8am-7pm, when I wasn't in class I was writing an appreciation of Three Kings's portrayal of Iraqis. two of these writing hours were spent waiting in a hallway so that within the month I would be an Iraqi Insurgent picking off Marines day by day. In a simulation. real marines would take me to the fucking cleaners.

I just got distracted for 2 hours or so by Steamboy pretty stunning anime, though I'll need to get dad to watch it to pass judgement on the Manchester accents. I'd like to sink a bunch of links into this post, but I've gone again.

two weeks to finish three essays and two presentations. pretty rough, so I better get some sleep now while I can. posted by Keegan at 7:49 pm
