Going to the Colts game on Sunday for free!

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Went for a run, sweated like a bastard, but now I won't feel guilty for lounging around the rest of the day.

Didn't go for a run. Didn't get all sweated up and all that. Now I won't feel guilty for lounging around the rest of the day.

the malazan that told me to try Vegemite, cheese and bacon.... YUM! But I don't remember which one it was as there were a couple of Vegemite and bacon combinations I was supposed to try.... and I don't remember the other one!

Had a fantastic day at the beach yesterday. Friends, cookies and the best weather contributed to one terrific outing.

I made it home last night about 9pm. Today put a rent deposit on a rather nice 3 bedroom townhouse only about 6 km from my new work ... which will essentially cost me about $150 or so per week. Gotta love Rental Allowance - thank you again, you wonderful Aussie taxpayers! :hulk:

A few things in today's Haps Report. One, my first drama play ever is this Satdee. Two, my friend's birthday party just happens to include my new best girl friend (note the spacing). Three, the insurmountable Jap homework I mentioned...don't have to do it after all. So I'm a pretty happy camper. :hulk:

woke up at 1:30 today. I love having no classes.

also, finally got the huge pile of laundry that needed ironing done. My room is starting to look inhabitable again.

now, all I need to do is get the exam shopping done, to ensure I have enough food to sustain me for two weeks, and I'm ready to get down to actual studying. And since i'm well aware of the scope of the material that needs o be learned, i'm fairly confident I can get it done efficiently.

Just finished translating the Student Association of Agder's new web site, a brick load of work, and I'll hopefully get paid in time to buy Christmas presents. I've also finished a epic time-consuming Malazan painting, which I'll get money and a copy of Stonewielder for. I've gotten lots of compliments for the dress I'm wearing today, made it myself no less, and I'm going to Amsterdam tomorrow!

Originally I read that as you received many complaints about your dress, at which point I was confused. Maybe you enjoyed tearing them limb from limb for daring to insult your dress, and that blood spatter was just the right shade of red, I dunno. Now it makes more sense. :admin:

Will we get to see this epic Malazan painting? I wish I could get paid in Stonewielder too. :thumbsup:

ha, that would be more fitting for a Grimmybear, wouldn't it? But no, it was compliments, so no limb-tearing today..but there's always next week

Yes, you can expect it in a Malazan Art forum near you, as soon as I get the green light from the fellow who commissioned it. I just hope you guys like it as well...for some reason, what you guys think of my malazan art really means a lot to me :admin:

Now, that city is a clear waste of your time :thumbsup:

Assuming you haven't been there before: the red light district is nothing special despite its rep. Don't waste your time there, nor your money on the Bulldog (the most famous hash bar - if you do want to go to a coffee shop, ask your hotel/hostel manager/desk person for a recommendation).

Try and get a native dutch cabby if you absolutely have to take one, but cab-drivers are generally the scum of the earth in Amsterdam.

Quick word of advise where it concerns drinks: don't go the Leidseplein or Rembrandtplein. Yes, all the tourists go to the cafetaria or pubs there, but you pay way too much for a beer and both staff and clientèle suck balls.

I can personally recommend going to the Irish pub at the Max Euweplein (Aran, which has decent food as well at not too high a price) or visiting the Tara Irish Pub on the Rokin (expensive but awesome, plus you can walk it easily from the station, basically just a straight line). If you want something more quiet and authentic, go to 't Arendsnest (Herengracht 90). It is located on one of the canals and the view over the water is fantastic.
