Belgium, Laptop, Results, Birthdays, and other stuff...
It's been way too long since I last blogged, sorry everyone... Plenty going on, not a whole lot of it good, but hey...
First off, I headed over to Belgium with people for a week and was all set to have a great time which I did for the first few days (so sunny, so much delicious food, great friends, fun times, barbeques, relaxing in the paddling pool~) but then we went to this water park for a day and I got way over-chlorined, headachey, ill, and just generally 'meh'... There were still some good times to be had (watching The IT Crowd with people, giving Ling the scrapbook that was made to commemorate her year in London (she's back to Australia today :'( We'll miss you Ling!!)) but to be honest the whole trip was less great than I was expecting. Sorry to people if I was a downer or whatever when I was there :(
Aaaanyway... More depressing times ahead... I knocked my laptop off my desk and it's broken :'( It's been in the local computer shop for about a week now and they've basically decided there's nothing they can do so we're now trying to claim on house insurance... I dunno what I'll do if I don't get the insurance money, not having a laptop now would SUCK :( I love my laptop and I want it back! *sulks* Oh and on top of that just before I came home from London with my brother I managed to blow up my monitor so I am actually now computerless in London... Gonna have to bring a crappy 12" flatscreen back with me and survive on 800x600 for a while :'( Grrrrrrrrrrr bad timing! :(
Ok ok the last month hasn't been that bad, there have been some good points... Mainly this one: My results came through and I passed! I'm back next year~ :D Got the letter right here so if you're curious here's my results...

Wooooooooow. Those are AMAZING results .. well, to me they are. I could never hope to get results that great XD I'm sorry your laptop broke but I hope you'll get a new one soon... don't worry, things don't stay bad forever. What's gone up has got to come down and what's come down has got to go up sometime, right? XD So.. yeah. Look forward to some good stuff happening. ^_^ *hug*

not sure about "what's gone down has got to come up"... the "what's gone up must come down" metaphor relies on gravity in order to make sense XD but thanks~ *huggles* and of course you could hope to get results as great as mine! go pwn law! ^__^

Wasn't talking about gravity XD I just mean... life has its ups and downs. You can't have just ups or just downs all the time.

Haha I know, I just like taking your comments too literally because it bugs you so~ XD *pokes and huggles*
Can we meet up sometime when I'm back in London?

They don't "bug" me strictly speaking. It's just my job to clear up a misunderstanding if I think there might be one. XD
Yupyup ^_^
