So basically to summarize the list, its basically all the useless ftp clothing that no one in their right mind is going to be able wear beyond their bedroom doors. books for the learning impaired and all kinds of other useless crap with the only decent item being iPods and some kind of shitty cameras.
note: I actually brought a "velour FTP bathrobe" as well as an assortment of random items such as sunglasses, stress guy, ftp handheld fan so from first hand experience trust me none of it is worth the postage that they must be paying to ship this crap out to us.
So my initial idea of using the points and getting a Macbook for my sister is not possible, lame. I don't really understand the whole problem with being able to ship a macbook or even getting it delivered from a supplier here in Australia.
They do the latter (ship from suppliers here in Aus) for some of the ipods I've received in the past so I really can't see it being a huge step further to include the Macbook in that arrangement...
extra note: I DON'T like mac's, I happen to prefer pc's however my sister is female and likes how the macbooks look in their "pretty" enclosures and doesn't give a shit about functionality and the actual specs...
Anyway so the past couple of months I've spent genuinely giving University studies a decent attempt, and have a prop with karma and pushing4anal that I won't miss more than 10 hours of university this semester.
So far I've attended almost everything, I think the current tally is around 3-4 hours missed, every time I miss a lecture or a tute I msg luke and he'll count it up whenever.
Meh I don't think I'm going to be losing this bet, suckers and another plus side is my studies seem to be benefiting for the first time in a long while and really not at the loss of any sacrifice from myself except for getting up going to to uni and doing homework instead of browsing the forums/procrastinating.
But for some reason I'm up right now at 8.10am with Justeen sitting right next to me after we both finished playing sessions for a couple of hours that ended at 6am and I have a lecture sometime during the day...
life is good when my only worries currently are waking up in time to go to the lecture, bitching about getting items from the ftp store and deciding what to cook this weekend.
Yes, I've started cooking  My first meal that I prepared a day after Mother's Day (kind of a late gift/deal that I would start cooking randomly when I feel like it) was pumpkin soup and spaghetti bolognese which was pretty good fun. Crying like a little girl while chopping the onions and having my parents laugh at me was hilarious and the end result was a pretty solid first attempt at cooking.
This weekend I'm juggling between roast lamb and potato mash or garlic prawns and some sort of rice dish?
Trying to stick with the simpler recipes for now and every time I cook something I chuck the recipe into a folder with notes, ie bolognese, evaporating the sauce note that it keeps evaporating even AFTER you take it off the heat...
So sleep beckons and I really need to be able to wake up in time for my lecture, so i'll leave it here for now.
I really need to make my blog posts more interesting, will try harder next time but for now my excuse is its 8am stfu

ftp store does kinda suck. plus they deduct shit from your rakeback so its not points plus rakeback. one time i had rb left there and it felt like a pleasant surprise all of a sudden next day i even owe them for getting some stupid shit i ordered a long time ago. sick. |

your sister is female... wow, that did surprise me.
would be kind of strange if your sister was male, wouldn't it? |
