So I was lying in bed this morning (I really had to pee but I didn't want to wake Lindsay up since it was a bit early) and I was thinking about all the people who have written me who I haven't responded to. Or maybe who I have responded to but in my ... Read more >

Tuesday Lindsay and I went to the Comedy Night and it was DREADFUL. One of the comedians had such a thick Australian accent and used SO much slang that it was impossible to understand him. It was like someone stuffed my ears with cotton and then started ... Read more >

As it were Ellen, there ARE Australian girls. It just so happens that few and far between at Uni. are very cool and un-slutty (sorry Australian girls). Our other housemate, Paris (who IS Australian), moved in. She's basically one of the most fun people ... Read more >

Moni: Italian food is sub-par. They don't make meatballs like you. We did find a nice little restaurant that is called Michelangelo's and has a bistecca salad and delicious lasagna for a good price. I LOVED your Brio gossip column. I'm pretty sure ... Read more >

Really tired. Today was the bbq with other residents of Burwood Student Living... good food and good people generally. It was a nice day. Not hot at all and breezy. Warm if you stayed in the sun but a bit chilly in the shade. Guaranteed nothing ... Read more >

Horrible news. We don't get "concession" cards. What's a concession card? It's what we SHOULD get for being students and cut the price of the tram in half. Not having one cuts your fun in half. Maybe even worse. I think it was the straw ... Read more >

It's 9:06 am and Lindsay and I are all showered and dressed and have eaten our breakfast of cold left over pizza and we're about to head out and try to find a grocery store. Can you believe we got up at 7:30? It's not even explained by jet lag...... Read more >

It's Saturday. Lindsay and I just woke up. We slept for about 12 hours straight and honestly I think the jet lag is officially over. We're pretty much a million miles away from everything. In a desperate attempt for Breakfast for the next morning, ... Read more >
