Wymnz r cool!!11!!

drinking, less so. I've had a string of enjoyable nights, and when that happens I drink more when I go out, which ended up last night in getting to the memory gap stage. at least it was right at the end of the night, but man, wow. it's enough to make me skip tomorrow night anyway. don't wanna be out on the town draining my account when I've got a car to pay off, and a trip to save for.

annoyed at myself as well, for turning into a sleaze. get lucky once and suddenly drunk keegan thinks he's a ladies' man. the swagger is nice, but the behaviour less so.

A Day To Remember

Wow, Graduated today. And the Virginia thing happened, which I read about just before I left for the ceremony. going to be etched forever, that one, like 9/11.

Moment of respect.

And to think I'm worrying about not getting finance today for my car, and watched Office Space just now, and everyone's walking around like it's a normal day when something like that happens. an individual lets down the whole world, and destroys his fellow man.

And just because it happened in a university on the day I graduated, I for a moment imagined that it was some aberration, and that around the world there aren't millions of humans that have crossed the line beyond civil respect for the lives of others.

Hope that one day I'll be telling my grandkids these stories of the horrors that occurred in my world, and they'll live in a world that makes ours look like a fictional dystopia.

Epic

Buying a car has got to be one of the most difficult things I've done since I finished my honours thesis. the picking the car bit wasn't hard - it's a Holden Commodore VS, Green with a neat little spoiler.

The tricky bit has been getting finance from an online provider. I started the application process two weeks ago, chose the vehicle a week ago and put down a deposit, and been waiting for the process to come through. there was a sense of urgency for me, as the day drew closer to the point where I had to return the company car. Two months is a pretty good run for free fuel and an e-tag.
So panic struck this Friday when I dropped off the keys, called the finance company, and got told the check wouldn't happen till Tuesday. Graduation day. so turns out I'll be getting a car for my graduation. and a $5000 debt, but shhh. I can ignore that in the moment.
