    Default Happy Australia Day / Chinese New Year

    I'm posting it now, in full awareness that Australia day is like, 12 hours away (in AEST).

    So happy australia day to all the Australians out on TPM for the 26th January, and to those who wish they were Australian (which you all do.)

    What you all doing???

    My Australia day will be the usual, chilling out at a barbecue with mates. Probably go for a swim in the pool, drink a few beers, and just absolutely make love to the public holiday. Woo. Good times.




    Also happy chinese new year I suppose.

    Happy year of the Ox!

    I suppose I'll be honoring Australia Day this year by freezing my butt off and wishing I was in Australia, where it's summer right now, lucky Aussies.

    Usually we have a barbecue, listen to the Triple J Hottest 100 and drink some beers. However most of my friends are going to Big Day Out this year, leaving me alone with nothing to do.

    I get to go to school. Music theory, piano lessons, cello lessons, and choir in one straight four-hour shot, then an hour and a half of concert band after a two hour break. In recognition, though, I'll put down "Waltzing Matilda" for my solfege journal. That shouldn't be too awful hard.

    Ev'rything's swingin',
    Long as I'm singin' my song...

    Well I went out and rank last night, then I am going out again tonight for a party and then I will probably be drunk all tommorow.

    I prefer winter. My dream is to have a summer cottage in the southern hemisphere, I'd go there when it's summer in Finland.

    Anyways, Happy Australia Day and Happy Chinese New Year! I'm an Ox, myself, 24 years old this year!

    Is anyone sick of me talking about work yet?
    That's where I'll be tomorrow - 10 am sharp, dressed up and talking as bogan as I can. We had a choice of dressing up all Aussie or Chinesey - as one of the few white guys at my work, I'd imagine me donning some Asian garb wouldn't go down so well.

    Worst part is dealing with holiday schedule public transport, confounded further by work on my train line adding 30 minutes. Will probably have to leave for work at 7.30... And I'm still not home yet from tonight's shift. Stupid buses replacing trains. Aargh!!

    Anyhow, it's past midnight now, so happy Australia Day/Chinese New Year!

    Never noticed Chinese New Year until this year. Because I have an Asus laptop which is currently suffering from video card breakdown, but Asus is based in Taiwan so all their tech support has the week off for Chinese New Year >.< . Fail.
