Man, it’s hot.
What news is there? The real estate agents were cool with me going onto an ongoing lease, but this just makes it clear how soon I’ll have to leave. Which sucks, because I won’t just have to leave Perth but also think about packing up my junk, moving it to mum’s place, arranging to have the most useful bits of it moved to Sydney, finding a new place over there, booking a flight and a room at a backpacker’s and paying for all of the above. Man, what a drag. There is some good stuff about it though - I’ll be on the home stretch of the PhD. with a good idea of how to finish it, I’ll get to see Glen and James again and maybe even Misha or Shelley, I’ll be able to eat Turkish which is a food that Kicks Arse, and if I pick a less trendy suburb than Enmore (Blacktown perhaps? :P ) I should be able to get a place that isn’t completely microscopic. Maybe I can even move somewhere where it’s a bit safer to get out on the bike.
Any other news? Not really. Spent yesterday watching season 2 of That 70’s Show. Man that’s some funny shit. Today I will eat much.

I demand you choose Marrickville!

Western suburbs places are definitely a lot cheaper than the inner west. But… ugh.
So the move to Sydney is definitely going ahead then? Sucks kinda, I guess I know what it’s like to move away from family and friends.
D00d I’m always up for some of those crazy creaming soda vodkas.

Yeah, Marrickville is way less trendy - and yet so strangely close… I’d live there if I wasn’t so weirded out by closing the loop and thus eradicating my future/past/something.
I second Mish on the crazy creaming soda vodkas.

This weather is awful. I do not approve.
When do you leave? (I’m assuming after February 25th, right?)

Amanda - yeah, depending on prices and stuff. It is nice and close in, isn’t it?
Mish - Up for some creaming sodas? I know it buddy, just hold on a little longer.
Nails - You never say much about your past. Maybe there’s a post in that?
Liz - Like, late in March or something.

I love it when you suggest posts - it’s so funny!
You’re quite right, I don’t mention my past very much. Wonder why?

Maybe you’re actually someone famous and we might recognise you otherwise. That MUST be it.

Yeah, that’s it.

I reckon Randwick, Coogee etc. Close to uni, reasonably affordable and good for the fresh coastal air.

Yeah, you have a good point. I wonder about the expensiveness though. I’ll have to wait and see.
