Almost every entry was "School today, played with Lorraine". But even then it was amazing to read, and I saw her instantly as a ... human .. (of some sort). We get along great now and I've always said it was the diary that got us started.
What I'm trying to say is that parent-text rules, and that this is a good day.
*break*
So I'm doing a tafe course in business management as part of a government program called NEIS (New Enterprise Incentive Scheme) .cause I'm starting a business with my sister ... Anyway, five days a week, 9 to 3, Moorabin campus ... And it's bliss.
Well, it's not.. but when your daily schedule changes drastically and you do something different and meet some new people, life gets more interesting.
Anyway........
- There's this semi-successful comedian in the class, right? Was on Spicks and Specks twice and Good News Week twice last year, and whenever he talks about the ridiculous state of Australian comedy it's so fucking interesting. One of his tangents involved Shane Bourne crying. We're quietly keeping a tally of who leaves class to urinate the most, men or women.
- There's this new girl called Mileena which is handy cause one day we'll be in danger and it's like forward forward circle. Fuckin' easy.
- There's this super rich older couple from the UK (England and ... Scotland?) who are both repulsive and completely engrossing.
- We've got two naturopaths, oddly. And a specialist in Chinese medicine.
- And there's this mumbling boganic kinda figure called Yusuf who gave me a ride home today who I'm beginning to think can't relate to anyone in the class but me. I'm quite surprised that he'd think of me (with my rolled-up-at-the-bottom jeans and my little pink novel and my talk of canadian indie supergroups) as someone he can talk openly to but he does, and I think he kinda needs to talk openly to someone, so that's good. Just stories about cars and trouble with the law and stuff like that.
All the Australian cultural stereotypes are represented. S'good stuff... At lunchtime though I find that I neeeeed to go off campus and just read my book. 'Sanity time'.
*SEGUEWAY*
Hanna turned off comments on her blog ...
To be honest I find it a little annoying.
:P
All you guys're really good writers. For honest - I'm into it.
