Exam One Over

I finished my criminal law mid-semester exam with 15 minutes to spare. I left early but was a little apprehensive of doing so because no-one else had got up to leave. But I did it anyway. It was a pretty straight-forward test. One question in total. I had to decide whether the defendant in the case would be charge with murder or manslaughter and on what grounds. I think my justification for my reason was very good, although I am not very good at writing essays.

So, yay, finished that, now only a assignment due on Friday, and another mid-semester test on Monday. I don't have to work tomorrow so I will have enough time to do the assignment. And I have the whole weekend to study for the other test.

I need food now.

Mid-Semester Exam

I am so busy with assignments and mid-semester exams that unfortunately I have no time to update my blog. I've been studying for my criminal law mid-semester exam all day today, from 9am to 9pm (although with a few breaks to go to a tutorial at university), which takes place tomorrow at 5:30pm. Not good.

Damn Accounting Imbalances

I'm mentally exhausted. I spent all day at work doing accounting and after 6 hours I didn't end up getting anywhere. Damn those cash account imbalances.

Ooo, guess who I get to see tomorrow! It's Melody!!

Exhausted

I'm so exhausted. I spent more than two hours of my day mowing the lawns. They hadn't been done for 3 or so months, so the grass was fairly long, and now my hands hurt and I have blisters on them as well as a graze. I just want to rest.

I'm also pretty hungry but I do not have the energy to make anything, so I will wait another two hours and then go get some takeaway from Crown Pizza. I usually get the Crown Chicken which is so delicious and a huge meal for me. Check out my review for Crown pizza here.

My Creation On Wikipedia

I spent my time at work today. Yay :P. Although I did get a bit of Constitutionalism homework done which is a relief. But still so much more to go. *Sigh*.

Just yesterday I created a page on Wikipedia for the CSI: Miami computer game. Finally, I have created an article on Wikipedia. *sound of cheers in the background*. Basically I used the information I had on my website to form the basis of the article, minus the review part. There is so many more articles I want to create on Wiki. Mainly adventure games that no one else thinks are worth an article. But I'll show them *cackles insanely*. But it's so annoying, it takes me so long to create an article, where ever will I find the time to make all the other ones that are on my list of things to do.

By the way, my arm's not to bad now. It hardly hurts anymore and there is no extreme bruising. Probably no bruise in fact. Yay.

Finally a Blood Donor

Last night I was informed that I didn't have to work today. Which is really annoying considering I was counting on doing my homework whilst being bored at work. Alas, today has come and gone and I didn't do one bit of homework. However, on the spur of the moment I decided to try my luck once again at the blood bank. And hurrah, I actually was able to donate blood this time. Let me tell you a little about my donation session.

Well all was going fine to start off with. The needle went in and blood come out as it is suppose to. However, the lady told me to start squeezing this little ball because my blood was coming out too slowly. So away I went squeezing, and then it became like a race for me. For some stupid reason I was trying to catch up to a girl who had gone in a bit earlier than me. They use this computer thingy that records how much blood is in the bag. And I just had to get at least equal with her. Silly me. This was only for the last sprint however, but when the needle was taken out the shook hit me. I felt so sick, and hot, and like I was going to throw up. So I ended up having to stay lying down on the chair for an extra 20 or so minutes. It was ok though, the guy that took the needle out of my arm saw I was feeling ill and started to fan me with this wicker fan. I was so spoilt. :P

Anyway, I got back home, well rather to my boyfriends house and all was going fine until I decided to take the bandage off my arm. Silly silly me. I forgot about it for a while, then after moving my arm a little to much I felt a sharp pain; like the hole in my vein had popped open again. Not good. So my arm hurts again, though the pain is wearing away. But I still feel light-headed. Hopefully all is better in the morning. Damn, I just reminded myself I have to work tomorrow. Good one me.

LimeCat

On my way home from uni today I saw a petrol station selling unleaded petrol at 123.9 cents per litre. I had to look twice. I mean I don't think I have seen it over 120c but alas, doom has finally arrived, at least for car owners anyway.

Also, on my journey home I saw a bus turning a corner and I swear it nearly tipped over.

Here's a picture that someone posted on Wikipedia a while ago that is so cute. It's name is LimeCat.

New Job as Mystery Shopper

Today whilst travelling back to Melbourne I received a call from a marketing company with whom I had applied over the internet for a position doing 'mystery shopping'. They rang back later on whilst I wasn't driving and I think I got myself another job. Although I don't know if you could call it that much of a job since it is very irregular work. Anyhow, I'll see how I like it and if the pay for each report is worth it.

Now, I must start my tutorial homework for Financial Accounting.

My Cuz's 21st

Last night I went to my cousin's 21st party. The theme, if you would call it that, was "Creative Cocktail", so I wore my newly bought clothes and my deb flower on my arm from year 11 (I think it was year 11). Not very creative, but it had to do; what with my lack of time in preparing my outfit due to working the few days before it. Although you could just say I was unorganised. Either way, the party, I felt was really good. It would have cost my aunty and uncle so much money to host though. They were serving free beer and wine to all the guests and when free alcohol is available people tend not to skimp. I happened to be one of those people, though I felt bad about it.

One of the most amusing events of the night would have to be the speeches that were made. They took forever but were quite funny, especially the one that my uncle made. Anyway, you had to be there.

So tomorrow morning I will be heading back to Melbourne for my afternoon lecture at university. That is all for now.

Chapters the Size of a Book

I missed a lecture today. Well, maybe missed isn't the correct term, rather I opted not to go. I was so tired this morning and didn't want to get up. I also had work today at 11:30am. I read heaps of my Criminal Law book, though less than a chapter. Mind you, a chapter of this book is like 70 pages.

Bruised

On Monday night I went to Steve's shop and bought myself a brown skirt and a real nice top. Technically my boyfriend bought me the top since he paid for it. He's so sweet. I plan to wear my newly acquired outfit to my cousin's 21st birthday party on Saturday night. More information regarding the party to come at a later date. I'll tell you what. It's so weird how buying a new outfit that you think you look really good in can boost your self-esteem so dramatically. I feel much more confident when I'm wearing my new skirt because I believe I look good in it. It's hard for me you know, because I can't really afford to buy many new clothes, but when I do, I always feel good. I also bought a new belt on Wednesday night that matches my skirt. :)

On Tuesday I had a two hour break between lectures and decided to finally go donate some blood since I'd been meaning to do it for ages. So in I go, all was going great until the nurse put the needle in my arm. Something went wrong because he took it out nearly straight away and called for assistance. Apparently as soon as he put the needle in my arm the area around it started to swell and bruise. So now I have a big bruise on my arm. It was so painful Tuesday night and Wednesday, it hurt to even move my arm. It still hurts now but only if I poke it, although occassionaly there is a pain down my arm. Not a good first experience. Not that the pain worries me that much, I was just really disappointed I couldn't donate my blood to help someone else. However, I won't let that get me down. I will probably go back next Tuesday to try again. Anyway, here's a somewhat blurred photo of my bruise.

Today I am back at work after having four days off so I could go to university. I now work Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Sigh. So much work, so little personal time. Well today whilst at work I have accomplished a little bit. I finished the first chapter of my Criminal Law book, which might not sound like much but it took me ages. As well as writing up a review for CSI: Miami on my website. You can check it out if you want by clicking on the "My Website" link.

Oh My God!

Oh my god! I just had my Intro to Quantitative Analysis lecture and the lecturer made three mistakes. Firstly, and not so importantly he spelt vertical as 'verticle.

Secondly he said that an increase in inflation would lead to a decrease in interest rates. Which is wrong because if there was high inflation the RBA would increase interest rates so as to slow spending and encourage savings.

Thirdly he drew the graph for y=a+bx wrong. At least I am very certain he did. Below on the left is a picture of what he did and on the right what I think it should be.
