:)

So it started on Tuesday, I guess. Bao was back in Aus and he and the gang were supposed to hang but they couldn't make it so it was just me and Bao and we just met up at Capitol Starbucks, caught up and then we ate at Grill'd. After that, we went to Manning at USYD for this welcome party for international students that Bao had gone to the year before. It was nice. I drank beer and cider and danced to Drunk In Love and Cinema and then I got really sleepy and the guard took me out of the room to say, aye, you can't sleep here, lol. Anyways, I lost my portable phone charger and headed home from Redfern at around 11. That was the night before O-week and I was supposed to fill the goodie bags before bed, ready for the early morning. But yeah, I was intoxicated (from beer and ciders lol) so I just slept, hoping to wake up five hours later to do the bags. Buuut, I woke up at 6:30, half an hour before my EVP was picking me up to go to USYD so I ran downstairs, threw everything into the bags and I had to skip my morning shower. Anyways, O-week was great the first day. We had about 90 sign ups and a lot of photos with the Instagram frame.

Photos of me because I'm too in love with myself.
After that, Tammy took the things home and I went to eat with Jess, Nini, Thomas, Chris and Bao. And then we chilled and talked in front of Cold Rock. That was nice. I got home by around 8:30 and half of KIK came over to play board games. We played Small World and I came third. I slept dirty from the days before hoping to wash it all off the next morning. And then I woke up to a message that I didn't have a ride to uni and that I'd have to take the train. Chris thankfully was able to help me carry stuff and the day went well, but I was so dirty from the bar and O-week day 1. We signed up over 100 the second day. After a long day, we left stuff in the locker and I went home with Bao where we left some oweek stuff at my house. I showered off the dirt and changed into some nice hipster attire as an attempt to achieve Vic's "Kpop" dress code for the party she had planned for that night. I met a whole bunch of new people and spent the night getting lightly tipsy on cruisers and singing to pop songs with Bao and William. James, our ride to the party had to leave early, and so Bao and I made the decision to stay until the morning. I got Bao to sleep for a few hours while I tried to stay up all night as to not wake up late via not waking up or rather, sleeping at all. I ended up falling asleep though. I did manage to wake up at a suitable time so all good. I went to Bao's couch to wake him but he was already up so I ended up sleeping in his spot for a bit lol. We caught the 6:40 train to cabra and then to fairfield so that I could get back home to grab stuff and then head off to uni for the last day of O-week. I manned the stall and signed up our last 40 of the three days. The rain and wind had destroyed the frame from the day before and the morning rain was only going to kill it more. That was sad. Oh! Yesterday when the weather turned around and I got so pissy, my bad.

Anyways, me and the crew went to have that plant milk tea in burwood. It was pretty cool. We also had viet food and it just felt so nice. It really did. Anyways, Jem drove us all home in Vic's car and it was from there that Bao finally left. And then I uploaded the photos from oweek and after that, Jess picked me up to go to Kenny's. At this point, I was on top of the world. O-week went well, I was happy. I got to spend so much time with the crew, mostly Baowao (who i hate to admit, was pretty great to hang out with. His accent and charm make me so cheery). And after all that, I got to see Jess who I hadn't seen in soooo long. I really missed her. I didn't realise it before, but it was just really great when she picked me up. Also, strangely, it was really nice to see Hellbelle too. But yeah, by the end of the night, I was dead tired. What a weeeeek.

Anyways, today is monday. I was sad. For a moment this morning, I had a feeling of what crippling sadness was like. It was not fun. But I saw Bao on the way into uni and then I had cider and strawberries with Nini, it was v nice. Oh, and while I'm here:

NUMBER ONE BIGGEST PET PEEVE OF WORKING AT COLES:

THOSE BITCHES, THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS, WHO DECIDE THAT SELF-CHECKOUT IS JUST A SHORT LINE. LIKE THERE ARE THESE BITCHES WHO THINK THEY CAN GET THE WORKER WHO OVERSEES CUSTOMERS AND HELPS THOSE WHO NEED IT AT SELF CHECKOUT (SCO) TO DO THEIR SCANNING AND SHIT FOR THEM. I MEAN, YEAH, YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE IT, I'LL TEACH YOU. BUT THERE ARE THESE OLD MEN THAT UGHHHH. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON'T KNOW, SCO IS NOT A PLACE FOR YOU TO GO TO SO THAT THE WORKER DOES ALL THE SHIT FOR YOU, AND YOU GET OUT OF THE STORE QUICKER. YOU GO THERE IF YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF THE STORE QUICKER AND ALSO, YOU AIN'T INCOMPETENT. LIKE SHIT SON, LEMME TALK ABOUT THIS ONE LADY. THIS BITCH IS ALL LIKE INDICATING THAT SHE NEEDS HELP AND DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO USE THE MACHINE. SO I'M LIKE, OH THAT'S OKAY. ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS TAKE AN ITEM, SCAN IT, AND THROW IT IN THE BAG. THEN SCAN THE NEXT. LIKE SHIT, DAYUM. BUT THIS BITCH IS LIKE, "CAN YOU DO IT FOR ME" AGAIN. AND I'M LIKE, FUCKING FINE. BUT YOU SEE THE PROBLEM IS, YOU AIN'T THE ONLY BITCH UP IN THIS BITCH - OTHER PEOPLE NEED MY HELP. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO RUN INTO PROBLEMS WITH THE MACHINE LIKE BAGGING ERRORS AND RECEIPT PAPER JAMS. AND WHEN I WAS SCANNING THIS LADY'S SHIT I SAW THAT OTHER PEOPLE NEEDED ME. SO I'M LIKE, JUST CONTINUE, I NEED TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE. AND THIS BITCH HAS THE NERVE TO SHOOT ME A DEATH STARE LIKE I'M THE ASSHOLE. HUN, HOW DARE YOU. I'M ALREADY PISSED THAT YOU PRETTY MUCH CAME IN HERE TO AVOID A LINE AND FUCKING IGNORED ME OR DISMISSED ME WHEN I TRIED TO TEACH YOU. AND SHIT SON, THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE AT THE REGISTERS AND THE LINES ARE PRETTY DAMN SHORT. GET YO LAZY INCOMPETENT ASS IN THOSE LINES, HOE. MAYBE I'M GETTING A LITTLE TOO WORKED UP ON THIS. BUT LEGIT, IT PISSES ME OFF SO BAD.

MORAL OF THE STORY, THE SELF CHECKOUT IS NOT SOME PLACE WHERE YOU CAN BARGE YOUR ASS IN AND GET THE WORKER TO DO YOUR SHIT FOR YOU SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO STAND IN A LINE. IT IS SELFISH AND IT'S NOT LIKE YOU WERE FORCED TO COME IN HERE AND DO SHIT, YOU CHOSE TO FOR YOUR OWN SELFISH REASONS. OMG, FORGOT TO MENTION HOW AFTER THIS BITCH GLARES AT ME AS I GO TO HELP OTHER CUSTOMERS, SHE JUST STANDS THERE. THERE ARE LIKE TWO BROKEN DOWN MACHINES AND THERE'S A LINE AT SCO AND THIS BITCH JUST STANDS THERE WAITING FOR ME. SO I HAVE TO GIVE IN AND FINISH WITH HER SHIT FIRST. FUCK OFF, MATE. SMH, HATE THESE PEOPLE SO MUCH. CAN'T USE SCO? WAIT FOR THE DAMN REGISTERS. YOU AIN'T SPECIAL.

Okay, guys, thanks for reading! Bye!!!! <3
