SO BLOW ME

[quixotic]

- Got into Murdoch/Kaplan's Bachelor of Psychology! 

- Might also apply to British Council's teaching courses to pass the time.

- Need to get a job!

- Need to write more.

- James Cook University is having their open day tomorrow! sob so much for my free time this weekend.

- 66/100 icon slots filled!

- I said this on my lj, but I fucking love Supernatural.

- Watched Prince Caspian! Which I enjoyed! I really do like what the movies have done with the books, because face it, as much as I loved the books, character development/substance wasn't very strong in the first two (but great in the Dawn Treader, so if Hollywood fucks that one over, I'll never forgive them for it :D). Reepicheep was suitably badass, Peter the prick was delightful, Edmund was adorable and I really wish I could like Susan more but I just can't seem to.

- One of the things that I thought about recently and it used to crop up in fandomsecrets a lot was the argument about westerns playing eastern characters/countries/etc. And I talked about this with a few people about how bizarre it was to me. I'm from the East! I've lived my entire life in the Easter hemisphere! Yet, I am more inclined to playing Western characters. To be fair though, I had a strong anglicized background which ostracised me from my peers for about... a good twelve years of my life. I have lived a life being a part of both worlds and never truly understand either one completely. I wonder what that says about me....

- Gosh, DW giving me paid time was a great ploy. :( I want to update every hour because of my new icons.

Not the one in Australia, unfortunately. They have a campus in Singapore! Which is where I am applying! Buuuuuut if I get my bachelors there (or Murdoch in Singapore), I can come to Australia to do masters/education shit!!

Well, you wouldn't want to go to the one in Australia as it is in Townsville. You want to come to Brisbane, where the cool kids (aka me) live!

[quixotic]

Yeah, when I saw the locations list of JC unis, I was like, "Townsville doesn't sound super appealing to me..."

[batman]

I very nearly ended up working there, and to be honest I'm glad I didn't get the job. It got flattened by a cyclone shortly after I was rejected as a judge's associate so clearly it had it coming for me, and was just pissed off I wasn't coming!

COME TO BRISBANE we have three awesome unis and infrastructure and stuff. AND ME.

[quixotic]

You broke his heart, clearly.

And you being in Brisbane is clearly a bonus and something I will consider!

Poor little Cyclone ... whatever its name was. There are so many that annihilate Townsville, I forget what they're called. I know it wasn't Larry, that was the year before.

IT ALSO HAS BEACHES. AWESOME BEACHES.

[quixotic]

Pfft.

I tend to be terrible with beaches. I AM A JUNGLE GIRLLLLLL.

[batman]

We have rainforests. Close enough.

[quixotic]

That works!
