miscommunication is a weapon of mass destruction
my life has been riddled with angst courtesy of this place in the UK who im attempting to book a ski trip with. i got a letter in the post from them.. sent on the 30th dec.. and it said i had to pay my balance and post the form back to the within 7 days else id lose my deposit. i received this letter yesterday (5th jan) ... which gives me about 2 hours to post the form back to London... hrm.. complete with a cheque for 265 pounds.
they obviously dont often have overseas customers.. cos they totalyl handle their accoutns horribly.. they also dont answer emails.. and dont accept credit card.. basically i have to stay up till like midnite tonite and make an international phone call to them.. to hopefully get a coupla days extension maybe... as you may know i dont really swear.. but SHIRT SHIRT FLASK!!!

hrm... but other than that.. the rest of my week has been heaps cool =) been hanging out with some nice ppl ..
::monday, tenny's bday.. jsut a quiet lil dinner, but heaps fun =) we went to Tony Romas .. who are apparently famous for ribs.. well they are according about 1 millions signs in their store =p it was rather tasty though =) thanks go out to Amy for shouting everyone... it sure wasnt cheap. we finsihed up with a trip to Passionflower.. where david ate 5 scoops of ice-cream.. by himself =p
.... afterwards i ran to catch the last train
::tuesday went to Yakiniku (oiishi~) with some anime ppl .. but it was all the nice anime ppl.. and none of the suck anime ppl =p the food was mad.. they had these vents above each table which were supposed to suck away all the smoke from your BBQ.. but i dont think ours was working.. as our smoke was trying to go into the vent next to ours =p Annie was suffering pretty bad.. the smoke was going straight into her face.. it made everyone teary-eyed.. literally =p .. and of course we had to go to Karaoke after =) it was pretty bad (sound-wise) though.. i was singing horribly (moreso than normally).. and i think the other guys jsut werent trying .. it was still fun, it jsut mustve sounded terrible =p
.... afterwards i ran to catch the second last train
:: wednesday
i had to stop and buy a bday present for my brother.. so i was running a bit late to get to parramatta.. to go to rock climbing. there was a a bunch of us there more than i thought thered be.. so it was pretty fun.. and its always fun to catch up with lingy ^^; *waves* .. im considering purchasing equipment cos its totally expensive to hire. the guy at the shop was trying to convince me to buy these size 7 shoes.. by saying they should be tight, and theyll stretch a bit, but i couldnt even get my foot into it =p i was climbing better than last time, i think mostly cos i had hire shoes instead of dunlop volleys. but i got past the 3 that i couldnt do last time and a 4 which id never done before.
since it was ling's local area she took us to the most happening place in Norwest: maccas =p it was pretty much the only thing open.. so we went there and ate. for soem reasone everyone appeared to have ordered double meals or something .. there was about 10 ppls worth of food between 6 ppl =p it was fun to sit around and jsut chill out.. it sorta felt like uni again =)
.. i got a ride home.. w00t!
