hey everyone hows things back home and around teh rest of the world? its getting pretty freaking cold here in strasbourg: generally about 1°C ouch. i dont think i would ever get used to it, thats probably whats making me miss australia the most, the weather and the beach: i cant believe im going to miss most of the last summer of cott! terrible, and i wont even have a vip card when i get back, such a shame.
**for those of you who havnt seen, i have changed alot about this blog, and added a bunch of photos, check it out starting back in september, if you look to the right of this page you can see the archives bit, click on september and you can probably work out the rest!**
things here are settling down a bit more, i think i am generally staying on top of this at uni, doing lots of hours of classes and i think im making progress. i met one of my neighbours properly, yannik from dijon, he's been really good, lent me his guitar and i copied heaps of music off him and stuff,. i havnt played guitar for like 3months so im pretty rusty... but i think i can get back into it eventually, even my fingers have gone all soft; its like starting over again, hurts so much.
i finally joined the gym here as well (speaking of being really sore) its really cheap but pretty crappy, very small and always very crowded. there is this one beefed up guy who is so classic, he makes teh stupidest noises when he does weights, sounds like such a typically french wanker, i guess you gotta be there.
havnt been taking alot of photos lately hence another one of me sitting at my computer, ill try to remember to bring my camera around with me more often when i go out.
been going out a little but not nearly as much as back in nice, maybe twice a week on average; probably for teh best, my brain is actually working a bit better now and i think i can get some work done. thursday was the armistice holiday here in europe so a bunch of us went out on wednesday night; first off to yannik's room for some serveuse (beer wine and lemon syrup) then a nice fresh walk into town (40mins at less than -4°) then onto a boat. there are a bunch of them moored on the river side and they are just like normal pubs really, kinda small though, was a bit of a novelty; music was good though, then met up with a bunch of polish people and went to teh club area to a place called seven, that was ok, but i was pretty buggered, first day at the gym and 8hours of classes, so ended up getting home about 3 and then just slobbed thursday, everything is closed so i didnt have much choice, dont think i will go out tonight, take it easy for a bit, try to get some work done and hit it hard tomorrow, but you never know with me do you?
so how is everyone? uni is coming to and end and so summer can really start properly, i hope you are all going to appreciate how lucky you are and go nuts, but save some strength for when i get back mid feb, thats when the real partying will start! i think im going to take advantage of my access to boats more often, so pencil that in for some heavy duty river partying, maybe even a rotto voyage or two, that'll do for today kids, hear from you soon. à +
