O-Week has finally come upon those who chose to venture into the life of university. a week of pointless wandering around the campus, and wasting time and effort - getting up (early) to catch a bus to wherever.
Well, today, the buss came LATE! (surprise surprise - stupid public transport) and we got to swanston street around 9.50 - hmmm and we are surpose to meet at like 10. saw kathy, tamara, steph ims, gracia and cindy on the buss; and we pretty much all sat together.
so finally i get to melbourne uni, and get to the "lawn" infront of the old eng building ....
ITS COMPLETELY COVERED IN PEOPLE - males XD hmmm - ok i expected the males, but man it was like 1 in 100 people i saw was female- scary. so unsurprisingly couldn't find my host guy. walked around for abit, and could just feel people staring at me - it was weird. ended up sms-ing my person, who called me back. and told me to put up my hand (yes i did it, and yes it was embrassing) and hes like "look to your left" - and there, towering over people =.=" stood the guy. i SWEAR i walked past that exact place like two seconds ago too. anyways. i get there. and the guys are so freaken tall >_> liek tim robinson tall - so scary (well not really, it was weird) anyways. got my name tag. and luckily there was ONE girl in my group - phew. we like pretty much stayed together through the whole tower. the guys in the group all became "mates" in like two seconds, while we just watched and was like wtf. it was so awkward for both of us, being with ALL the guys. it was like a group of like 16 people, with 2 girls. hmmm
well pretty much walked around teh campus, walking into buildings, whilst they showed us where computer labs were, where most of our lectures would be, "secret"/new lounges were, and yeh. probably the funniest thing that happened all day, was when our host people decided they wanted to see if we would ALL overload a lift. lets say - the lift was like 1metre-ish wide and like 2-3m deep = SMALLL and had a 1000kg load - and considering most of the guys were like 6' and looked sporty - hmmm. so we all had to cramp in - NO MORE PERSONAL BUBBLE. it so was awkward. just imagine it, 16 people, getting into a TINY lift. not surprisingly the lift like "buckled" under the weight, and something started to beep; and everyones like "OKKKKKKK" and people started to jump out. XD it was so weird. but funny. THEN cause our host guy thought it'd be fun to make us walk UP 3 levels worth of stairs to the TOP level of the stupid building - we did it =.= then he expected us to walk back then. me, johanna, and miko(she randomly joined our group) and two other guys were like screw it, and took teh same lift we decided to overload back down to the ground floor :)
well when it got close to 12, they said we could go have lunch, and we were gonna meet back up if you wanted. so i ditched :) met up with lin li cause we needed to buy our lab coats and glasses and some lab manual and workbook and i also had to buy this text book which i needed for my "reading assignment" so stupid. well i ended up with a lab coat, glasses, my textbook, and sense & sensibility by jane austen XD ( it was like only $7.95 - i couldn't not buy it!)
after all that, we all split up. i went back into the city with gracia and her friend. and we had lunch at mekong - it was like 2PM by the time we ate; i was soooo HUNGRYYYYY! sammy came to find us at mekong, cause i told her we'd be there; and she sat and watched us eat XD when we'd finished eating, i actually wanted to go to adias to see if i could find a buy for uni and stuff - like big enough for books etc. ended up going into sportsgirl, and i found this nice, BIG bag for like $60 :) so im pretty satisfied :)
tomorrow im skipping orientation for work at eyetrend- they called me and were like "can you come in anytime this week to do some stuff" so i have no idea why im actually going in, but i guess their behind on something, and need me to do it. easy work i guess, does get boring though x.x ah well - money money money
and i had no intentions of going back to melbourne uni this week; cause tomorrow well theres meant to be some lecture about your course...cbf i'd rather earn some money just cause i need it. and thursday & friday are just clubs and societies day. and i dont intend to join any clubs - apart form teh eng studnets club or w/e. apparently they host the BEST stuff :)
so i guess my "o-week" has really been dialed down to
O-DAY,
and i could care less right now XD
