Wow. Another day at the random office. Another day to spend surfing the net while on reception. Today I looked into Masters courses at National Taiwan Uni and actually seriously considered how I would fare studying in Chinese. God it would improve like crazy. I considered journalism but you have to study theory and that would be hard in Chinese, and it goes for three years which is way too long to be poor. So anyway I think I'll just go on the language scholarship again. Well, I'm Officially Obsessed with going back to Taiwan now. Cool.
Last night I invited Rose and Marcin over for dinner and asked my flatmate to show me how to do a roast. Well, he fully took over the whole kitchen and insisted on doing it all his way so it kind of took the fun out of cooking. I would have been satisfied with a chunk of meat coming out of the oven cooked through on a plate full of roast vegies covered in gravy but he had to have a 'special way' of doing absolutely everything, like steaming the vegies before making the soup so the nutrients would be locked in etc... When I make soup I just chop everything up and boil it down to mush. It was fucking fiddly and he didn't let me do anything so I won't ask for his help next time. Marcin thinks he's weird, so did I when I first met him, then I thought he was nice/ok, but last night he kind of annoyed me.
Hm what else can I talk about now? Well at the moment I'm drinking a cup of peppermint tea. Rose might move to Canberra if she gets offered a job with Dept of Community Services oh my god I would die, but I could always visit her then Kate in Tumut all in one weekend!
Hm what else... thinking... thinking... about Taiwan... what will I do when I get there? Enrol in kickboxing classes so I can be mega hot all the time haha! Have a million language exchange partners etc... Get a scooter again and go down the east coast and swim at all the deserted beaches etc...
What else is new. Oh, I put up a sign at Mulwarree advertising for a language exchange partner (now that I've decided to commit to learning Chinese) and the next day it had been taken down so I felt a little but ripped off but then a Chinese guy came a visited my appartment after seeing the sign anyway and we are meeting on Friday arvo. i think I want to work from a textbook so I learn new vocab and stuff.... now that I'm serious about it again... so that when I finally get back to Taiwan, I can get into advanced classes. It's all happening man... in a year's time anyhow. I'm still sore from my complimentary kickboxing lesson I had on Monday. Would love to rush back and start building up my abs again but I'm waiting a couple of weeks to buy an unlimited 3-month pass when I have the mullah.
Still haven't heard back from that prospective job... teeny weeny bit scared I won't get the job but hey it was worth the risk.
What else hmmm I've finished my peppermint tea now. Might go to the toilet. I'll be back...
I'm back now.

Hey I'd like to advertise my sister's art blog, check out her paintings, they are really good. www.ktsart.blogspot.com

Oh the new guy on Big Brother, Max, used to serve me coffee at Ralph's Cafe at Sydney Uni. Claim to fame, man.

OK well I guess I'll just continue surfing now... I can tell when I'm not wanted!
