Category: random life & musings

again a pretty random list.
Things I am thankful for, things I am happy for.

George Lucas, we watched the Revenge of the Sith
today. I was not that excited going in but when those words appeared on the screen. A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far, Far Away. :big grin on my face: It was sad though seeing Anakin change, Padmé die, the evil Palpatine.
But interesting thing I noted, when Padme was in the medical unit at the end. Yoda said this

“Save them, we must. They are our last hope”

of course the first/episode 4 SW movie was SW – A new hope. coincidence? I think not.

Sean, happily going with me to the uni library and holding book after book as I searched through the shelves for research for my next essay.

Cat Stevens, discovering more of his works, reminding me that the world is bigger than my house, that no matter how bad I think things sometime are, they are not, there is something good, something better.

I really dislike coming up with post titles.

Random stuff
The new theme is made especially for MG.
Word count of assignment handed in today 2201. 2 weeks left and 2 essays to go.
There are still patches of ice around.
Need to go proof the hail photos.
It’s the weekend, tonight I scrapped, watched Serendipity and as usual I cleaned/re-organised my scrap area… again.
Tomorrow, Grandad is discharged from the hospital. YAY 🙂
Tomorrow I am going to the uni library to get books for the next essay (Why are the Chinese so dominant in SE Asian Business).
Going to go somewhere crazy with Sean tomorrow, somewhere we don’t normally go, somewhere the car will take us, I just want to do something different.

I am Jon. I am Sara. Sigh.

It must be the weather or my avoidance or impending assignments but sheesh my room and computer are looking good. In the past couple of weeks…

I have thrown out probably 3 armfuls of paper consisting of old paper work and junk mail that I had kept (I used to seriously collect junk mail).

I have cleaned out drawers, my wardrobe, my desk etc and taken out many bags of rubbish.

Sean made me a little bedside cupboard which I use as an entry cupboard at TAFE last year, the top was covered in my work gear, daily essentials etc, well I went through it all and moved it into the draw in the cupboard, the top is now reserved for my flowers and important, cherished things.

I have filed and sorted all my paperwork in preparation of tax time.

I finally organised my finances on the computer, now I can really track my cash purchases – where I spend/loose the most.

I went through the recent mp3’s I have gotten and filed them out.

I have sold my old CM stickers, got a good wad of paper to donate to somewhere when I find a place.  

I have sorted out my creating stuff.

I have put completed layouts in albums or sleeves, though I do need to buy more albums. 

I cleaned/put structure in my desk, removed all the piles of paper, scrubbed it clean, it looks fresh:)

I have started cleaning out my computer – an on going project. Renaming and filing files. 

Feeling good, Feeling more in control. Now if only those essays would start themselves. 

One Year.

A really fun night. 

do I need to scour the streets for a friendly or not-so friendly copper with an RBT Patrol. On the way home from work tonight I was waved into an RBT station. Such a short interaction, have you had anything to drink tonight mam? No, ok just blow into the tube till I say stop. I breathed and breathed and then he said you are fine to go. I had sort of been wanting to see how long I could go without an RBT but now I have had one. I thought of ringing Sean to tell him but settled on an SMS instead.

 But if I was drinking I think I would want to find an old Mac to make this. Apple G3 Beer Server, how very cool!
