of all the clubs available on campus, i chose those that were the most gratifying - the dessert club, the international cuisine club, the hispanic club and UMSA..UMSA was purely out of courtesy. the dessert club just sits around and eats desserts, the international cuisine club's card has the word EAT on it. fantastic no? and i just found out there's a meat club, where they have barbecues and the members eat all the meat they want. now that'll be something for next year.

tomorrow will be the summer shakespeare thing in the evening, which i'm looking forward to, and then we're checking out auckland's night scene with a bunch of other people. YAY!

i still cant go online in my own room, ugh. and quite frankly, its grown on me, this internet absentness. like period pain. its there, but when its not so bad, you learn to ignore it.

if they have a meat eating club where's the veggie club? there's no such thing. and i'll tell you why - cause vegetarian kebabs SUCK! i mean, there's only so much you can do with veggies. they're good for you and all, but lets face it, animal meat taste a world better than the stuff that grows out of the ground.

bought a nice new coat today. cooked again today. not bad.

ah the mundane things that make up life. like writing in this blog..or waiting for the traffic light to turn green so i can cross.

we keep eating mushrooms here. they're greeat.

if somebody could help me track and hunt down the moron who said "absence makes the heart fonder", i would be very grateful. if, however, that moron is already long dead, maybe someone could show me how i can bring him back to life so i can kill him at my own pace. nice and slow. i have been known to be somewhat masochistic, by the way.

i still miss iain a lot. there's so much to say about that, that i dont know where to begin. when i find something to distract me, i'll be fine. but there are times when..it just hits me real hard.

there's this one comic (the only comic) i've bought. its called Vampire Loves by Joann Sfar. its about the misadventures of Ferdinand the Vampire in love. bought it cause i thought the drawings were interesting and cause it was funny. weird lot of characters. but there's this story about these 2 automatons that i liked. there was a male and a female one. ferdinand the vampire's friend had the female automaton, and he bought it because he could beat her at chess every time. but the there was a problem - her eyes started leaking. it was as though she was crying, but that couldnt be. she's an automaton. she's not supposed to have feelings.

they soon figured that there must be 2 of them, and ferdinand's friend was cheated into buying one that was supposed to be sold as part of a pair. his friend was reluctant to track down the other automaton, but ferdinand insisted, saying it was bad for his carpet anyway as the automaton was crying.

long story short, they found the male automaton.

the female automaton ran straight to him from across the room and ran her fingers through her hair. he had been crying too, but when they were together, they both started crying and tried to kiss each other.

TRIED

but failed

because they didnt have mouths.

this frustrated them, and they started to get violent, as they were desperate to have an effect on each other.

so to solve the problem, ferdinand's friend got out a chess board and the two lovers started to play chess. this suited them well enough.

the story about the automatons ends there. its actually a sub-plot in a story, but i like it well enough. it goes on and on about ferdinand helping out in a murder case

"love isnt any easier when you're dead" - thats what the synopsis said about the book.

its not bad, you should ckeck it out sometime.

i think me and aud know queen's street quite well here in auckland.

i love peaches.

"peaches - i could eat a peach for hours" - john travolta as nicholas cage's characer in face/off.
