Confusing stars for satellites

Note: This post seems to have no real structure.

This is now the 7th week since bball started and I'm about to play my second game. Hopefully. First game we played, 3 mins into the second game I had to be taken to emergency, Bye, Public hol, other team forfeit, other team was a no-show.
So freaking unfit too.

For a second I considered Amy's 101 goals thing, but I don't think I have the patience for it. But it might be interesting to have a crack at it over the next few weeks.

Been making a reasonable attempt to lose weight and get fitter. Kinda worked for a bit, but I think it's going to be a real struggle for me to keep weight off since I can't eat healthy, I can only eat less of the unhealthy stuff. Speaking off I might have my breakfast coffee now.

I was reading old blogs the other day out of interest. I came across the birth of the yoda (and chewbacca :S) among other things.

I've managed to cut back on getting drunk recently. Only time I've had too much to legally drive in last 2 weeks was singstar night, and I was far from being one of the drunker ones. Ah hangover how I haven't missed you.

The father, son and the holy ghost

Why is getting drunk so much fun? I really think I need to cut back on it. From now on I'm limited to drinking twice a week max... that sounds pretty bad actually. Twice a week is a goal to aim for. Hmmm, perhaps I should aim for once a week, either Friday or Saturday too. No more epic Tuesdays or Thursdays.

On that note: Singstar at my place this weekend? Either friday or saturday, what suits folks best?

It don't matter where I lay my head tonight

Well since I've last posted I've become single again. But everybody reading this already knows that. Also (almost) everybody reading this has been talking about it. Hopefully not too much though... I like talking about other people more :P

I'm really struggling to find motivation to get back into my PhD, unfortunately I've enjoyed all this time off far too much. There has also been a whole lot of recent epic. Which has taken a severe toll on my cash-pile and gives me more motivation to start this PhD to get scholarship money coming in.

Still looking for people to live with... Any takers?

Some conversation, no contemplation

Went in to uni yesterday to speak to prospective supervisor, since he is finally back in the country. Seems he went somewhere and would be back later so i waited 3 and a half hours and gave up and went home. About to go back in again today to see him.

Really quite scared about doing this PhD. I really don't know if I'll be able to motivate myself to do it. So far everything in my life has been cruise along into the next logical step. Sometimes it really amazes me how things turn out though. I nearly dropped out of school at the end of year 10 after passing three subjects in second semester with pretty crudalicious marks. I was also torn between law and joining an acting school and slowly over VCE I decided I was going to be a programmer. By some corny twist of fate (so-to-speak), the next logical course of action is to complete a PhD in mathematical physics. Who would have thought. Also really amazes me who we end up friends with and why.
