Good Times
my time at uva is drawing to a close, the only thing that will make my time sweeter is if we beat those damn hokies this saturday, then i will have closure- extreme closure, virginia tech must be humiliated.
This is my home now, and it will be sad to leave. I know everyone at college, everywhere i go i meet up with friends, just now we went to a bar then back to a mates house, he has 7.1 surround sound, not 5.1 but 7.1 and wow- it was marginally better. It's like you have 7 minute abs, then someone comes out with 6 minute abs and you're like wow, that is marginally better. I mean how much more can technology change while you still see benefits. Like a 60inch tv, do you really need bigger-perhaps images projected straight into the brain or something, anyway i digress.
This whole trip has greatly exceeded my expectations, it was so easy
to fit in and really feel comfortable in my dorm room. And there is always some place to be and some socializing to be done. People just come into the apartment and hang out or we go somewhere. I wish i could have some of these friends back in Australia, not to put down my aussie friends but to have them plus some of my american friends, its different than when i was just travelling around the country and meeting people for a few days, this is different, i have grown with these people, and i won't see any of them again. I won't be able to just walk out of my room, and hang with everyone. America has treated me well, minus an alcohlic incident with a bill attached. USA a-ok
I purchased my first copy of the new yorker from barnes and noble yesterday, the cartoons are brilliant. I hope to find it in Australia i am very impressed with the depth of the articles.

Kids, we just have to learn to accept this. Like one of those stories on Dateline where a family member suffers a horrible accident and becomes a burden on everybody. Sure, they pretend to be happy, but they're dead inside, they're dead. And that'll be our lives.

Hey Dan, don't get too depressed. When u get back to the merry old land of Oz i'll come and hang out in your room and we'll pretend we're on campus. And then we'll go hang out in the quad near the gymnasium.
yeah and we can tailgate at uni before footy games and go on panty raids in the girls dorms! And then go and drink beer and eat nachos at the sports bar. Wait newcastle doesnt have a good sports bar, i think i should open one.
Hey Dan Whats happening When are you returning to Maitland. I just got back from a trip to Ireland, it was pretty cool, and the Guinness was unbelievable. You should bring back some college jackets and we can all sit around playing madden and talking about the dam hokies.
Yeah you should totally open a sports bar. Either that or we would have to go to Wests but I don't think they have Nachos. And we're definately doing some tailgating when u get back and panty raids coz that sounds hot.
