some good news
well, i got a quote on fixing Jose for about $4000.00
NO THANKYOU!
however, i was almost about to fork over the money when...
i was talking to jon who was at work (jon works with me... well, he used to. he's gone off to greener pastures now.) and he told tommy (another IT dude at work) about the quote. tommys like, "get fucked, i'll call my brother/cousin/relation/thing."
relation of tommy gives me a quote yesterday of $2900
THANKYOU TOMMY! (and jon.)
so thats a saving of either:
- a new snorkel, fitted professionally plus money left over for painting the front of the jeep where i accidentally ran into the petrol station and scraped some paint off the plastic bit.
- uni books for 2.5 semesters
- a computer with:
- Dual Core Processor (1.8ghz/core)
- 1Gb RAM
- 400Gb HDD
- 128Mb Graphics
- DVD-RW
- 19" Widescreen Monitor
- Cordless Mouse
- Cordless Keyboard
- Windows Vista (Home Basic)
- Food for my family for 15 weeks
- Food for a starving 3rd world country family for a lifetime. plus goats and stuff to spare so they can have their local king around for dinner. or queen. whatevs.
ok bye.

I can blog from MS Word.
MS Word '07 (and the entire Office '07 suit) can blog to blogger. I'm so amazed.
It fixes up all my spelling mistakes, grammatical errors and general stupidness (according to word, "stupidness" isn't a word.) and everything.
I just type it all into Word, and press the "publish" button, and hey presto! I've got myself a blog post published.
Ok, back to cleaning my room.
Ps. The reason I found this out was because mum and I were working out flights for our trip in June, and I needed to send the notes I made from OneNote (best program. Ever.) to her.

high
today as i was relaxing outside my house waiting for my mum to come home so she could let me in the front door, i got attacked by my crazy romanian neighbour. she works down at the beanery in church street with camilla, and i hear countless stories from camilla about how if camilla doesn't scrub the tables hard enough then no boy will marry her. i've never ever gotten the husband talk from my neighbour, as i was sure i was still considered to be a 10 year old child.
alas, i was sat down, with the bright lamp in my eyes, the interrogation began.
fifteen minutes later, and my entire life plan sorted out i was out of there (a tiny bit fatter.)
my life plan according to a crazy romanian woman:
- find a nice boy
- he has to be nice because:
- i have long eyelashes
- i am "very beautiful"
- i am "smart"
- i come from a "good" family
- he must also be "lovely"
- stay at home with my parents until i get married
- all good girls must stay home to help out with everything
- once they move out they have to look after their husband
- once married i should have lots of babies. especially boys
- boys are important as they bring in the money
- girls are almost as important as they are beautiful
- i have to stay with my husband forever
- i think this means that divorce is out of the picture
- as is marrying a woman
- or not getting married at all
id also like to add that my crazy romanian neighbour thinks that i am too skinny.
in other news today i played pokemon until midday, then amy called me up and we went on a sexxxy date down to church street.
also, last weekend i went 4WDing and managed to kill Jose.
i don't have any pictures of the death as yet. but i do have a few others from the weekend:
the convoy.

Jose's new colour
check out how high the mud flies
my bedroom was the blue one
changing room
at the present moment he is being revived over in avondale heights. (near keilor. (near the airport... kinda. (FAR!))) this is due to the fact that i can't afford to tow him to brighton (approx $450)
i'm pretty sure the crankshaft is broken. i could be wrong. anyway, it means $$$ to fix. and thats bad. the good thing is, im forced to get a snorkel now (reason why its broken = i didnt have a snorkel) which i've been putting off for a while.
i was kinda bummed by the weekend though. because sure, it was fun, but we didn't really do any fun trails. we just did muddy trails. the jeep is awesome at climbing those hills and finding its feet, but all it really did this weekend was get muddy. but it was pretty fun.
also, for all those worried about the length of jons hair, yes he has cut his hair and all is back to normal.
also, school is crap.
death to damminda.
and to microeconomics.
