"Early" Mornin Rant :)

Time spent in preparation is rarely wasted. That's a line I know all too well, I first read this line from the Tomorrow series by John Marsden. A series of books on the lives of a circle of friends living somewhere in the outback as Australia is invaded. I don't know if you have read it or if you will like it, but I was quite hooked on it. Mmm so it was umm kinda lame in some sense (like a game where the main character will never be able to die cause that just goes against all expectations), I liked it all the same. There were some interesting plot lines in there, Things I probably will never imagine happening to me. If Australia was invaded while I was out camping with my buddies, gosh I would have no idea what to do. Blow up a bridge did you say? How about an aeroplane hanger? Hahaha perhaps if I was the son of Rambo. I think I'd find a nice shady spot with all my buddies close my eyes and hope that when I wake up I find that instead of there being a war I just hit the jackpot in lotto! hahaha. Well we can only dream now can't we? I don't know if I could find myself to start fighting an unknown enemy, but I guess if war breaks out all rules no longer apply. He who strikes firsts lives the longest yes? haha

With exams coming up this Saturday what is a guy to do but blog about study? I've tried reading notes, listening to lectures, I might even go to a consult. I just wonder where is this all headed? Do we really need to know how confidence intervals work? I don't think so, but then again there must be some upside to this learning, is there not? Maybe the only upside is the reward of not having to do it again? Then again I quote another passage "The reward for work well done is the opportunity to do more" Did something just click in your head? Did you just go Oh snap! If I do this well I just get to do more? Did you just feel like kicking yourself in the head? Cause if you did then I'm pretty sure you're normal. I just want to know where this leads, but I guess that the thing about life, you never really get any answers just more questions. I mean really, everyone knows someone who went through uni just as I am right now (and if you're reading this your probably a buddy of mine doing uni too) and they do something like commerce and then they go out and turn into a fitness instructor. I mean WTF? Did you just say fitness instructor? I'm sure you have someone in mind that fits the profile. haha gosh.. what happens when war breaks out do we all just become survivors or casualties?

Gosh, talk about events outside of my control. I think I'll just let them flow for now. As far as I'm concerned I've got a small bubble to look after, family, friends and other material duties. Study would be Exhibit A. It seems that by getting my P's ( readers who are not from Australia P's are a reference to me getting my licence, and P is meant to stand for probationary I think) I have gotten some new responsibilities, Grocery shopping seems to have become a new chore, but that's ok. Oh and I think I just became an apprentice to the Mum's taxi service :) Life seems rather grand at the moment, smooth sailing and happy days are to come (after the exams that is).

Oh and if you happen to be binging on a song at the moment drop me a comment on what it is. That would be much appreciated :)

Happy Birthday Windah and Kev

Thanx
