Rainy Day in Sydney

[insert picture of rainy CBD, colourful umbrellas dotting dreary Martin Place as I trekk to work in the middle of yet another downpour]

[the above picture will be uploaded as soon as I find exactly 22 good reasons to capture the moment, and develop said pictures. That's right, folks, the digital camera is...confused ("lens error") and the DISPOSABLE camera is back in style. I was shocked that they made them still, but low and behold, 2 for $20! The lady at the Chemist (=pharmacy) informed me that they would be not be restocked, so "grab them while you can!" Wow-I feel old. Remember in 7th grade, when disposable cameras were the ONLY cameras appropriate for a class trip to Cedar Point? Even the summer before my freshman year of college, I must have gone through 6 disposables in 5 weeks while camping in Wyoming. They must fall in the same camp as CDs these days...old, outdated and soooo last week. Ah, technology.]




Today was a miserable (weather) day in Sydney. It chuckered down rain for the majority of the day, including but not limited to the forty or so minutes I spent walking from my house to the bus, the bus to work, work to the bus, the bus to uni, and the walk from uni to home. Literally every minute I spent outside was spent battling precipitation from above.

Work was great, however. I'm starting to take on more projects and getting more involved in the recruitment process, and I even get to use my writing heaps more than I expected. I'm a happy chappy :)

This week is a long one. Tomorrow (Wednesday) I have a media release due. Thursday an academic essay on sports and the media. Next week=NO PAPERS DUE!!! The following week, another media release due, and the week after that one exam and one large feature article must be submitted. So close, yet so far! 8 June, where are you?!

20 days away, that's where.
