It's coming closer

France. :)

just a quick re-hash

this song reminded me..

of the guitarist playing "hit the road jack" on the steps of the louvre.. possibly one of the coolest moments..

and i found a video of it :D

I can't think of a good title.

So went out this weekend with plongy, conor, chris, liv, paul, harro, bigfella, angela, hhaannnnaa, harriet, chris and jade! had drinks and dinner at the rocks (at the oldest pub in sydney for some cheap 6 buck cocktails which went down nicely) got tipsy there then went east to another pub for a feed. Had a chat with the french waiters there - reminded me a lot of london <3.

Then a harro, bigfella, paul and I went up to brooklyn and the others went to another pub. We got there hit the d-floor had a jager bomb and then paul and bigfella left me and harro to our own devices. Bigfella and paul returned with most of the others (minus liv, conor and chris) to dance the night away. Bigfella got lucky 3 times haha and matty had a dance off with 3 guys and ate a blind. I just danced and drank. it was good fun. Got home at 4am after a good 'ol ride on the night rider!!

Apart from these shenanigans i have my first (out of three) exams tomorrow, history. I haven't started studying yet, I thought I should get this out of the way first :D

Epic Night in Sydney

I had a fucking GREAT night out last night! it involved the crucible, free wine, dancing, and german girls!


and more:

lee!
mattheo!
the brooklyn
free cigs
KICKING RATS
ANNNNd shit :D

Just as I thought I had seen it all,
A new girl comes in through the door,
Charismatic and beautiful,
Quintessential aspects of all,
Unlike any I have met before,
I am floored, such a woman, I can only but adore.

The beauty and mystery of the universe
pales in comparison to her beauty
and the mystery which surrounds her
like sweetly smelling mist.

She's more than just beauty.
Charisma flows from her,
and her intelligence is keen.
She's not just another trophy on the wall,
for that would not do her justice at all,
The beauty she possesses
draws me in,
and the charisma and intelligence
keeps me there,
she has me.

And this,

This she doesn't even know.

Airfares

I am looking at them!!!
So, since I am back in Aus... my plan is:
Study and get honors (ha ha ha)

big deal.

The big deal is that i havent blogged since i was in paris.. which was a while ago!!
since then i have been to lyon,
hated it
living in a boring shithole,
eating shitty food,
doing nothing all day,
no courses,
no help,
no accreditation,
it would have been a waste of 5 months.
On the 6th i returned to london via the TGV and EUROSTAR.
it's so great to be back at the clink,
ik hou van je, last night.
dee jaying,
dirty chicken,
super showers,
ice's,
TESCOS!!! fuck yes, tesco is my reason for living... :)
so on sunday night... i need to ring flightcentre and get a flight home,
should be interesting
fingers cross the flight is on the 1st or 2nd of march!!

voulez vous...

ok so just to recap...
the last few days i have been in france.. got here on the 28th. it's the 31st now.

stayed in a little hotel near montparnasse called the hotel delambre.
it was nice... had cheap internet... chinese near by..
but the suburb was shit... just full of old people.
on the 2nd day mum and i climbed the eiffel tower, it was awesome, beautiful clear skies, no rain no fog. no waiting in a line. just perfect.
after that we went to the little restaurant just down the road and got escargots and a diabolo.
which is exactly what i ate there in 2006

the next day we went to the sacre coeur and we walked up like 1million steps. i had flashbacks here from 2006 which was pretty cool.
once again the weather was far better, and the place was much more beautiful.
two american guys sang songs on the steps... one played hit the road jack and the other played maroon 5 she will be loved.
both were REALLY good!
today mum and i caught the TGV to lyon... Lyon has impressed me already...
had some trouble at my new place coz the receptionist is a fuckwit.
however, my room is really nice... cosy bed.. bathroom... fridge.. microwave.. stove and looks out onto the hill behind the place.
spending time with mum has been really nice..
even though i can't wait to move into the place and meet everybody there...
im excited :D

"it's not confidential, I've got potential"

Post1.

I hate blogging!

• So, I made this after reading Tara's inspirational blog. http://unpetitpeu-deparis.blogspot.com/
• Been in london since the 29th, slept through new years!! How exciting. The next morning I made a new years resolution to have the best january ever (to make up for my lame new years).
• I have taken androids advice to heart.
• Only been sober about 3-4 nights this month.
• I don't get hangovers anymore!! Or maybe I do, but I just don't notice them :).
• Vodka, is like, so good.
• Clink Bar is fucking so much fun, too bad the prices went up a bit... but i certainly got my moneys worth!#
• The Clink, well, this definitely made this trip worthwhile!! I have had so much fun here and I don't want to leave.
• When I got to the clink on the 1st, i originally planned to only stay a few days to a week. That quickly changed though. I met many of the "regulars", the longtermers, the family, here at the clink. And I simply couldn't leave them!! They are really cool, fun and laid back guys and girls.
• Plus, hostels in paris seem shit.
• I don't want to be kicked out at 11am and let back in at 4pm.
• Paris est tros cher aussi.
• and there have been and continue to be so many french people here it's like a mini-france sometimes.
• that being said my french has been put to good use, after a year of inactivity.
• The first few weeks i really tried to speak good french, and i had great feedback.
• I love it when i can convince somebody i am french with only a few words!
• But ugh lately, i have been too lazy to try my best to speak french, so my accent is um...
• well my accent isn't entirely australian apparently, a few girls at the bar told me last night.
• and well when im lazy my accent isn't entirely francais quand je parle so i have no idea what it is. it must be original then.
• I hope i find the motivation to speak parfait francais when i get to uni in lyon.... otherwise... hmm i dont wanna think about that!
• Hmm im heaps excited about uni in lyon... so many people have told me that lyon is a great place full of friendly people! And the uni sounds like a pretty cool place as well, there's 3000 french students and 1300 international students, so yeaaa partying will be so much fun!!
• My aspirations for study aren't too high... i just NEED to pass, that's it! Though I am hoping I can do better than that.
• Fingers crossed i find a friend who can help me with french studies.
• Anyways enough about France, lets come back to england.
• Since I have been here I have been to a few clubs.
• Florian, matthieux and I went to Fabric a few weeks ago but it was closed so instead we went to "The End".
• It was fucking intense.
• We waited out in the sub-zero temperatures for an hour, in the fucking line!
• Then when we got in it was packed like a tin of sardines.
• the music was not really to my liking
• it's the sort of music that's only good if you are fucked out of your mind on drugs.
• and most people were!
• I left early and got a cab back... i think... can't really remember!
• The next time I went out was to a place called Madame JoJo's in Soho.
• JoJo's is usually a gay-bar but on a wednesday it's full of straight people, because wednesday is it's biggest night, oddly enough.
• It was so shit.
• Firstly, everybody had a fucking fringe like me. WHAT THE FUCK. haha... nah but seriously, everbody was a metro fuckhead, dressed in super tight pants with little vests on and jackets. Ugh. Worse than me.
• Secondly, nobody could fucking dance. They just stood there bopping to the music.
• Thirdly, the music was fucking abominable. The dj's could not splice the beats smoothly between songs which pissed me off - If i pay to get into a place i want the place to be fucking good, and the Dj's AT LEAST have to know how to DJ!!!
• Ugh. Well. I didn't pay to get in, a spanish guy called Chris (i think..) paid for me. He's a champ. Studying medicine, hope it all goes well!
• Fourthly, (back to ranting) if the people in the club weren't doing their shitty dance they were just standing/sitting around talking.... ughhhhhhhhhh who comes to a club to fucking talk?!
• Fifthly (?) the venue was so shit. Period.
• The next place I went to is called KoKo's. Now. This place is so fucking cool!!
• It's a renovated opera theatre and holy shit it's amazing. Simply breathtaking. When you walk in you walk straight up to an elevated area over-looking the stage. I was blown away.
• This place goes off with live music, the atmosphere is electric.
• However, Dj's don't really work well here, nobody can dance which really sucks. The dance floor is big, however it's always full and squashed and smells like shit from the 4000 moshers who moshed there for the previours four hours.
• That being said however, the place is still really great, with one big bar on the ground floor, and many little bars spread out over the different levels.
• There are some really sweet places to sit, away from the music and the revellers, if you want a nice place to chill with friends and some drinks in a nice venue.
• The last place I have been to is called Barflys, it's just a small indie bar located in Camden.
• Went there with some spanish girls, french guys and some spanish guys.
• I had a lot of fun there, mucking around with this guy who was fucked off his vagina on MDMA.
• He liked my fringe? Yay.
• Once again i felt like i fitted in at this place too much!! Everybody was indie, had a fringe and wore tight pants. hahaha I hate that!!
• But yeh had a good night and some good chats with the spanish girls and some french guy....
• went and got a bacon burger and chips and started a conversation with this total stranger, a young english guy, had a pretty fucking funny conversation about the steak burgers and shit at this random food joint in camden. That was fun.
• then the spanish girl, blanca, divorced me, married the kebab seller, divorced him and then married her french lover. Typical.
• 2 minutes left on the internet for this session, it's 2:10 in the afternoon and I need to go get my lunch and dinner, it's australia day WEEKEND!!!! GET PUMPED!

"i'm so paid"
