Well im still without my car, apparently the bonnet they got to replace it was in crap condition, so they sent off to melbourne for a brandy newy. The problem is as of last week they had 'misplaced' it... hrmmm makes ya wonder really :|

Getting used to this walking around business, wandered down to harvey norman on saturday mornin, was cool. Fired up the iPod and before i knew it i was there. Ive got a list of stuff ive gotta do when i get my car back, general stuff from the shops and that. Also i reckon ill go for a drive down the beach... amazing how much i miss driving! :)

Watched the extended version of lord of the rings on friday night, the added bites actually add a fair bit to it, its cool. Cant wait for the next one to come out on boxing day. Hopefully ill get to see it, but i may be down south somewhere for chrsitmas, i dunno yet.. hrmmm as usual ill wait and see what happens :)

Still fixing up stuff for last terms results, seems that 83 final results were 'entered incorrectly in the database'.. humpf! so i had to manually go back and check EVERY mark :| Apart from that, i have started monitoring mailing lists for spring / summer subjects, its cool. Basically just answer outstanding questions that students have asked. At the moment i am trying to get up to speed with the assignments and stuff, also gotta get a copy of the texts and stuff so i dont tell them something that isnt right :| lol

Thats it, things are cool. Gramps is still in Brisbane hospital, still geting radiation treatment. I get mixed stories from everyone, so ill have to wait till i go down there again to see for myself. Pop is going good again, just sits in bed all day apparently and yells out every so often wondering if anyones around :)

righto.. time to find somthing to do... hrmmm spose ill watch this dodgy bruce willis / sarah jessica parker movie :P
