im feeling fucking great

After working Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday 12 - 930 I had hit rock bottom (oh yeah and my car breaking down inbetween there somewhere).  Yep, I wanted to kill myself, oh wait can't do that cause you have to do an assignment due tomorrow!!! So my Sunday night/morning was spent completing my "introduction to journalism" assignment.  You know, it really was not that hard, 650 words and a complete pile of bullshit.  But really, that just made me not want to do it anymore. I kept telling myself, 'oh you'll get it done', 'pfft its like such an easy assignment'.  But after about 3 hours on facebook I finally came to the realisation that I needed to pull myself together and finally just get this thing done.

If you are a somewhat decent student you are probably reading this and thinking to yourself "why didn't you just sign off facebook and get it done?"  Well if you are a university student you probably already know that that is impossible, at least for me. 

 Anyways, I got to bed at 4 after finishing le assignmente' (had a little nap around 2 just to clear my head) and woke up at 6 to print my assignment off only to find that both my printers are fucking idiots.  One left grey smudges all over my "probably a 7" assignment, and the other just refused to print. GREAT.  At this point I was stressing the fuck out.  Not only had I not printed this assignment out, I also had to make it to UQ by 10.. no make that 9:30 cause I had to get that shit printed and to UQ via public transport all the way from Upper Kedron.  Let me detail my trip to UQ: bus to Ferny Grove, Train to the Citay, walked around city for about 20 minutes because I did not know where the bus to UQ left from.  caught a bus to the cultural centre only to be there just in time for a bus to UQ.  Arrived at UQ at 930! oh god things are looking slightly hopeful.  So i ventured to the SS+H library no idea how to print oh and not to mention lost my wallet so I did not have my student id card to print. FREAKING THE FUCK OUT.  Thankfully I ran into a friend that I had made weeks ago when helping her find a book in the library who let me print off her account.  Then we both had to just find the building to hand that badboy in.  we did so without a minute to spare and both successfully handed in our assignments right on 10:00, and if anything probably a little after 10:00 BUT NEVER THE LESS THAT SHIT WAS HANDED IN. BOOM BABY.

okay so at this point I am a little happier now, but still sleep deprived.  I stayed at uni all day that day and then had to trek it out to St Rita's for my coaching job and then trek it back home via publico transporto.  It sucked.  As soon as i got home I passed out.  Woke up the next morning at 7 still exhausted. Went to uni for another full day. Car pooled today! played a bit of ball then passed out AND here we are, 8:44 Wednesday morning and feeling fanfuckingtastic!  and tonight i'm going to go see 'every Jack has a Jill' starring, Melanie Laurent at Centro tonight.  finally getting a chance to see a french film festival film, instead of serving for it which i hate so so very much.

old people and rude people

working with old people sucks... they don't do work, and ask you to do their work when they are totally capable of doing the work but you can't not do the work cause they'll make a scene and at the same time you can't tell them what to do because they are like, old... hahah

and rude people, what the fuck.  I'm not being rude to you, so why the fuck are you being rude to me.  It's like that episode of The Simpsons when Homer joins the navy and his drill Sergent is being quite rude to him.

it goes a little something like this (well actually exactly like this because I got the quote from imdb and imdb never lies).

Drill Sergeant: Look soldier, you don't like me, and I don't like you.
Homer: I like you.
Drill Sergeant: Well, I don't like you.
Homer: Maybe you'd like me if you got to know me better.

STELLAAAAAAA













Tonight I saw the QUT third year actors rendition of the Tennessee Williams play "A Streetcar Named Desire" at the QUT Gardens Theatre at Gardens Point.  I only really got into it after intermission however in saying this I thoroughly enjoyed the second half of the play.  Nothing beats going through psychotic episode and Blanche's was no exception.  It was was pulled off through the use of moving props and eerie music (a flanged and filtered version of the original piece of 'ny'orleans' style music used throughout), evoking surprisingly realistic recollections of an acid trip...wow.

Yep, that was definitely worth my 10 dollars (thank you student discount).  I think I will probably go see cheapo theater in the future.

BOOMTOWN



















Isabel Lucas came into work tonight, and I lost my shit however there were a series of events leading up to the special moment of contact.  There had been numerous Issy sightings around centro and even the barracks but I had never been there to actually interact with her.  Tonight was my lucky night.

She is in town shooting "A Heartbeat Away" according to one of our staff members who worked as an extra on the movie over the weekend.

Alright so at first I was making up the bags for the french film festival when all of a sudden Dan gasped and said "oh my god is that....no way", but I was not convinced until I got the heads up from damo.  perfectly on cue damo busts around the corner faliling his arms in the air and smile on his face,  BOOMTOWN.  There was like one of those like puffs of smoke shaped exactly like the moving object that appear when shit moves real fast after me as I hurdled a trestle table and gracefully slid underneath tensa barrier taping to catch a glimpse of her.  Then I pretended to stock up flyers secretly staring/drooling at her as she read a street press. Soon after her departure I reached sudden depression which was instantly alleviated when Damos proclaimed the good news that she would be back to see the second half of A Single Man, bang.

So yeah skip an hour and a half and it was 9:30.  Isabel had not come back and I was pissed off.  The whole centro crew (which also happened to be an all boyz crew), not going to lie, were in tears and felt completely and betrayed by our girl Issy.  BUT THEN as soon as I had given up all hope, she rocks up the stairs (change of outfit from earlier hehe) with some "dude" and aw shit son did my face light up.  Previous to this I had told everyone, including myself that I would be cool and that "I am always cool".  Wrong.  So not cool.  Infact biggest fucking loser.  I was trying to act smooth whilst drying off some washing but could not help the fact that I had a huge grin on my face.  I tried to hide this by putting my washing infront of my face. LOSER.  Anyways she walked off after we could not untie our tongues in order to direct her to cinema 2... or wait was it 3 FUCKKK for her to see the end of her precious single man. so all in all I think we did a good job...

she is smoking hot. yes, her hotness is smoky.
in discussion Dan proposed the question "don't you think she is a fox?" and I answered with "nahh, shes more like a .. lone wolf"

new follower!

yay sarah phelan is now following my blog

happy birthday mr smithers...

it is my little brothers bday today. heres a nice photo of most of the Cenita crew.

no.. not facebook.. eh

I am back on facebook. boom baby.  however this was not intentional.. 'sure..' you might say, however I truly did not intend to reactivate my account.  I was going to just log onto benny's account so I could stalk a couple of his friends but out of pure reflex I quickly and efficiently punched in my log in details and was signed in.  I was thoughtfully greeted by 'facebook' personally with the message "thank you for REactivating your account *smiley face smiley face hehe*"  At first I thought to myself 'aw shit fuck CUNT' but then after about 2 seconds I was more like "meh this isn't too bad".  Yes it is!  andrew, you tell yourself now that you have some sort of will power to keep yourself off "da book" but I'll give yourself about a week before you're addiction returns and all ability to study or finish assignments will have perished.

i will leave you with a picture of a puppy!














puppy says: "I have a big shiny bowl with my name on it, and sometimes i find crunchy food in it and other times i find squishy food in it.  Yay!"

new roll

in no particular order are some of the photos from my most recent roll of film.  there are some photos from phoenix, some of stuff around my house and some from one eventful sunday mornin'.  this might be the last developed roll of film in a while because rabbit photo at chermside and basically australia wide is closing down.  yes, a big aw over the fact that i wont have to put up with the incredibly bad customer service at rabbit photo, you will be sorely missed. so ill probably do the digital thang in the meantime.

boys noize on tomorrow night

I have a semi erection over this event tomorrow night.  I managed to get work off and sort myself out for the night so the night ahead is looking to be a good one.

I am going to be borderline homeless this week as I have to pay registration for ma vehicle and also have to pay a friend for the mbox mini that he sold to me. FUCK... I think I'm going to have to live off 20 dollars for the next two weeks.  It's just shit that I can't help.

new shoes

i bought these shoes the other week, and i was meaning to put a picture up but didn't ever get around to it..until now.  "the boss" andrew reynolds designed these shoes and i'm a massive andrew reynolds fan so i just had to get them (not only that, they are also dope shoes).


and i'm still trying to finish off this latest roll of film just so i can see whether or not i successfully took a close up picture of Thomas Mars the other night... but i just haven't been up to anything very exciting as of late so hopefully i will finish off the film on thursday night when i take on my arch enemy, sushi (if arch enemies came in the form of food).  a friend of mine suggested that instead of cooking dinner we head down to her local sushi train.  i was a little reluctant because of my little food poisoning episode with sushi not long ago but i agreed to it.  it was actually a while ago but it sucked.
i should take more photos of inanimate subjects.....

PHOENIX OMFG

i went to Phoenix tonight and it was amazing. i was situated dead center and 2 people back, luckily for me the 2 people in front of me were petite girls so it was basically like being at the front.... i missed out on a chance to jump up on stage with the band in their encore but oh well. however i am quite content with my 'hair ruffle' on lead singer Thomas Mars, god bless him. the set was incredible and the whole thing was a highlight, but if i had to pick a highlight of the highlights, Funky Squaredance would be the one to take out the 'made me jizz my pants' award. hopefully the photos i took with the lomo came out alright, i was under a bit of pressure to have to turn the advance wheel, arm the flash and then wait for the flash to charge before taking a photo because i was just having way too much fun.

hello to my friend Hannah from Ballina if you managed to check out the blog. the photos will be up very soon.
