Yikes, I haven't blogged for over a month! I'm just lazy I guess! ANYWAY... In that time there have been many goings on, Christmas, fighting with my parents, a clean and tidy room as a result for the first time in a long time, a new year, and Sadam's brutal botched and slightly ironic hanging in the same torture/execution chamber he had built while he was in power.
Firstly, good ridance to the man, I think the world is better off without him. However, the fact his sentence was taken out so quickly was wrong, hence why it was so brutal. I think sticking him in a sealed room with a limited amount of oxygen would have been more humane. Theres no use in harping on about it though, you can't exactly reverse the whole thing. Iraq now faces an interesting phase, will it continue as a single identity, or will it fracture into several states? With the Sunnis and Shiites at each others throats its not going to be an easy road.
Onto happier things, I passed uni!!! I can graduate!!! weeeeeeeeee!!! About bloody time too, now comes the tough bit, finding a Grad job! I wish I had started looking earlier, although I did have an interview on Monday, which went quite well, so fingers crossed I'll get that! In case your wondering, I did a Bachelor of Arts (Graphic Design). The fight with the folks had something to do with that too, so I really don't want to get into it. Things are better again though, which is something. I still want to move out, so I'm in the process of gradually buying home wares and such. I went to Ikea the other day and bought a kitchedn table with a couple of chairs, and a little side table. It only cost me $130 all up, so I think I did pretty well! I need to pinch my Grandmother's cutlery set from my sister seeing as she doesn't use it any more! Plus a few other kitchen odds and ends. I still have a few things on my list:
• Fridge
• Couch
• Washing Machine
• Coffee Table
• Desk and Chair (I want a good comfy one, the one I have now makes my arse sore
• Glass Wear
• Kettle
• Toaster
• Linen and Towels
Probably quite a few other things too. I already have a set of plates and bowls and such, so I'm right for that. Have any suggestions as to what else I should need? Right, too lazy to type any more.

Huzzah, my first blog post!!!
aaaaaah, my first blog post... Exciting eh?! hehe
Right, down to business... I have never felt so sore in my entire life (apart from craking two ribs), after cricket training tonight. My shoulder, my back, my ankles, neck. I've discovered muscles I didn't know I had, or just haven't used for a while. God it hurts! But, I did manage to sort out my bowling action, apart from the occassional wild one. Few more practice sessions in the nets and I'll be bowling like a star! They're only medium pace mind you, I would like to bowl faster but self co-ordination isn't one of my greatest assests!!! haha oh dear... hmmm
That will do for now, I'm tired so I think its bed time!!!
