ROUND 2
Tis Wednesday now. three days after first meeting Monsiuer Mike! :) And, pretty much, thats been the main event of the week. Monday, Poker was called off, so Mike and I and another of my friends - Alex, a Muso - attended our weekly session of network/internet gaming in Toowong! Games played: Battlefield 1942, UT was attempted, but not enough CD keys, and a very very cool and macho fist fight in Doom 3! you should have been there! we floated like a butterfly and stung like a Bee! fists only makes for some interesting gameplay! :D (although SOME people felt the need to go around pressing buttons and activating the compactor when i was standing in the arena! :P)
After this session we had dinner at the 'Super Chicken' in Toowong, (what exactly makes it so super i have NO idea! :P) And, since there was nothing happening, headed to the South Saide ostensibly to check out Dicey O'Reilies at Garden City (an Irish Pub) but as it was only Monday night, that was pretty quiet too. (I swear Mike is gonna think Brisbane is a Hick town where nothing happens!) So we ended up going to the BCC Megaplex cinemas and checking out the Bourne Supremacy. decent movie that. but, as Mike said: One that could also be watched on Video!
Tuesday was the big 'tour of Uni day'. I had to have a meeting with an academic advisor in the morning to talk about changing degrees or the possibility of doing post-grad stuff. That was a total failure. the advisor wasnt there, i got transferred and it all end in tears. well, it all ended anyway! :D so went to pick up the Mikster, and headed back out to Uni! Walked around all the buildings, went through to the Engineering one, and Mike got some info there. Then arranged a meeting of mates at the Red Room (our Uni Bar). We got there, but as my mates had an Education tute in half an hour, we decided to crash the tute then come back! so, for the next hour, Mike experieced a UQ Education Tutorial! much talk about 'Teacher Socialisation' and 'Ethics of Teaching'. Hope you weren't too bored there Mike! but we got free Red Stress houses from these people at the Red Room, so we were set for the tute.
After Tute, went back to the Red Room, and ordered our lunch. Friends of mine were there. Clayton, Zoe, Matt, Sarah. They all do Educ too the poor fools! And I will be the first to admit it. I am a complete spaz. i have no co-ordination. at least i didnt that day! Because I ended up knocking my Half full Schooner of XXXX Bitter over Mike's travelling sack thing. *hides face in shame* soooo sorry Mike! unbelieveably so! if you read this before you leave feel free to take one free hit! or at least send me the de-odorifying bill!
But yep! Mike got to meet some more of my 'friends'. Who delighted in bringing up nearly every sordid detail of my past to embarrass me! :P With friends like these....
We retreated back to Wombee, which is the name for the house habited by the four girls (Zoe, Courtney, Sarah and Lorelle). Very much like Hermil i guess, except with more Possums! :D And formed a Quorum. (dont ask! :P) whereupon after much deliberation we moved that we go bowling! it was seconded and there was much rejoicing! So, we headed out to Milton Bowling alley, and played two games :) Mike is not too shabby. He won the first round! but i must claim championship of the second!
The main event of the Day (for me anyway!) was Smallgroup that night! :) which allowed Mike to experience a fully Luthrean group! :D poor boy! It was a very different night from usual, we actually watched a video for half an hour of this pastor guy. but what he said was very informative! And then had our convos.
Through these days Mike i know, has taken some pictures of my mates and I. this means my long stint at anonymity is nearing an end! and tis time to step out of the darkness and into the light! :D
today was Wednesday and i didnt go to Uni till late! spent entirely too much time on MSN ^_^ and just then had pizza for dinner! and thats the go so far!
******
On a more serious note, I will be posting on something else tomorrow to do with my Grandad. I had to get this out of the way before i forgot it, and didnt want to do two posts in the same day! :)
