Golly Goo – Doo Be Doo

June 6, 2007 · 6 Comments

Gosh – it has been a dilly long while, hasn’t it?

 A quick update – remember that Bram Fischer Competition I was telling you all about? Well, turns out that Keval and I actually came third in the provisional round, and that third and second-place were really close. Second place pulled out of the competition due to the hectic load of work we have to do (which, in retrospect, was a JOLLY good idea), and so guess who was asked to take their place? Yes – us. :-)

So we took part in the final competition, and had to represent the defendants this time instead of the applicants, which was a far harder job. Anyway, I didn’t perform nearly as well as I did in the provisional round, and the judges munched me up completely. They were VICIOUS!!! *munch* *munch* *gobble*

I came stone last in the competition, and Keval came third, but because second place dropped out, he’s going to the All Africa in Dakar, Senegal! Kev kicked ass!!! :D

Other than that, I have been sooooooo busy. So much has actually happened, including arguments between two best friends, arguments between me and best friends, work-related issues (receiving a piggy bank for work well-done.. lol), varsity-related issues – the works, really. No need to update you on all of it. I shall just start off from today. :-)

Today I had my first exam, which was the Law of Evidence. I’m not going to say that it went OK, because then I’ll jinx it. All I’ll say was that I was able to pepper my exam paper with cases (this is a very good thing to do), and I think I managed to put down all the principles applicable to the facts of the various scenarios.

And then in celebration of me having a night where I could actually vegetate and do diddly-squat, I watched my recently-purchased copy of Dharma and Greg. I am in love with Thomas Gibson, aka Greg. He is sooooo beautiful and his smile is soooo lovely, and I feel really dumb saying this (and all mushy and idealistic and DO NOT judge me about it), but I want a boyfriend EXACTLY like him. He is the perfect fantasy. I just want to snatch him off the screen and place next on my bed and keep him there forever. :-) He will be added to the Hot Men of my Blog category in the next post.

And another thing I have found myself really enjoying lately is re-reading Harry Potter in preparation for Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows coming out on the 21st of July 2007. It’s been really helpful re-reading it all as I pick up on things I totally missed the first time round, largely because I FLY through the book to see what happens in the end. lol. I have found this particularly destressing especially when accompanied by a cup of tea. It clears my mind of all that Hollington v Hewthorn and Makin crap!!

Another way of destressing is to make videos of yourself being weird… I leave you on this note. :)
