I got me a job to be able to pay my college fees.. Today I get the message that since I'll be working soon I can't stay insured with our family insurance because I'm not blood-related to my mom's husband and now have to pay my own insurances. In the end this means I can't pay my college fees on my own because so much of my wage will go into paying the insurance stuff that I'll STILL have to ask my mom for money. So much for trying not to be a bother to anyone and wanting to sort my life out on my own.
Alternatively I could work more [being paid by the hour] and miss even more subjects every damn week and still only have enough money to pay the fees but not my train ticket. Excuse me for the emo-ness but sometimes life just sucks.

The obvious solution here is to live uninsured. That's what I'm doing. That's how I pay the bills.

EDIT: This is the worst plan ever.

I know that it's a stupid thing to complain about...but I'm bored. I tried staying at school past hometime to get more work done, and I did. But I still have so much junk time.

Oh, and I got reneged on with a sweet deal. Damn parents.

Work. Somehow. A combination of morally questionable things I have to do, lack of respect and low pay is making me Hulk-level angry. I'm dying to kick someone in the ribs and smash their face. I need a way to vent all this frustration but there's nothing.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Actually, that was my initial plan, but they won't let me. Damn

Anyway, I'll see how it goes, I want to keep that job in any case. I also finally have got all the papers I needed. Took me only three walks to the community center to get my tax card with my name written properly, my totally non-exotic given name, no less. Thinking positively.

One of my roommates is starting to annoy the shit out of everyone in the apartment. He's like a child that you can't give a time-out to because he pays a quarter of the rent. And because he's stoned.

I just cannot deal with this kid.

Haha. College student that is always high and only listens to the Dead? Are you living in stereotype land?

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 out to the pub tonight.
Discovered that a girl I was eying is seeing someone. Luckily I haven't made any moves.
Still it's fucking annoying when this happens. Because it seems to happen a lot.

Asked this girl out...been working up to it all week. Figure that the Cup Day long weekend will make it a shoe-in.

Wrong. Her schedule is packed.

I tried to take it with good grace, but I'm just getting sick of this. I look forward to this, hope that it works, and my hopes are dashed instantly. I could ask her out in a few weeks after exams are over, but what's the point? Probably just get turned down again.

Yeah, I'm done angsting now.

Maybe it was because you hadn't made any moves? He who hesitates is lost, after all. Not that I'm saying I'm a legendary pantsman, but if I don't do anything about it I also don't tend to lose sleep angsting about "what might have been". I add here that I'm not having a go at you about it, just pointing out differences in attitudes.

Just come to Australia and talk all Frenchy at our women and they will be on their backs faster than you can say "voulez-vous couchez avec moi, ce soir?" (spelling is only my best guess)

If their schedules are packed but they are interested, they will immediately come back with a counter-offer. If they don't, then they aren't interested. Move along, nothing to see here.

I haven't seen the GF for a couple of months now, and won't until around December 10th.

At least moving back to Brisbane will be a hell of a lot closer to Canberra, and only one 90 minute flight instead of that flight plus a layover of indeterminate length and another 4 hour flight.

Not the best advice seeing as I can't think of a single female I know that actually finds French attractive....though it is marginally better than French-Canadian....seriously? You CHOSE to speak French - WTF?

Considering I've known the girl all of 18 days it's not a lack of moves that hurt me here.
Taking too long screwed me over royally once. Just not this time.
