26/2 | IMB.....
first impressions People in my IMB building are awesome. Very smart
people, some already doctors, some PhD and a couple of honours students too.
Two of them, Michael (who's surprisingly shy around girls for a german) and
cheong-xin (who's the coolest Malaysian on earth - we call him CX for short)
convinced me to join a choir, and we've also done a couple of other fun things
together. Haven't robbed any banks yet, but I need time to corrupt these people.
:-P
23/2 | CX
- my favourite Manalysian CX rocks! Like me he can have fun and dance without alcohol. He also
has his own website {CX's
website}. What kind of nerd/overachiever has their own website! Honestly!
CX and I have a lot in common really. He's the asian version of me - it's
like looking into a mirror. We're already great friends and he's a good dancer;
the two of us have no problems getting up to dance in a club when no-one else
is up. I think we should make a pact that we both help each other find nice
girlfriends.
22/2 | Club
boy So far am member of: lego club, british humour appreciation club, latin
dance club (soon), discount club, and IT club. So much for forging a new identity.
<cough>nerd</cough>.
20/2 | Learning
guitar I'm learning guitar at the moment. Guitar is pretty
fun actually, not as complicated as it looks either (although finger picking
could take years to learn).
15/2 | Back
online - now with cable I have Internet again!!! Woot! Somehow I survived without it for over
two weeks, but cable was worth the wait. You might see me boasting about it
and msn messenger.
10/2 | Something
about a PhD As for uni, it's a bit hard to tell where I stand, but I think it's
going pretty good. They're not letting me tutor any subjects this first semester,
which kind of sucks, but at least I have a student card. I finally have a
security card and desk space in the IMB building .... and now I finally have
internet I suppose I better get working. Yer, I have no idea what I'm doing
yet. Something about a PhD, and the rest is scary.
5/2 | New
friends Have made heaps of friends. Even asked a girl out!!! Not that she said
yes, but ... well it's a long story, but the great news is there appears to
be plenty of great girls around - not like in Cairns where you're hard pressed
to find a girl with an opinion .... actually, in a computing degree you're
just hard pressed trying to find a girl.
3/2 | Who's
the turkey! Albert and I caught a baby bush turkey using a laundry basket trap
and sheer skill baby! Albert and I are a good team.
