lazy sunday

Nothing better to do today except just sit around and do...nothing. Classes ended last Friday, and final exams start on Tuesday I think, though I don't have my first final until the 31st - and it's a hellish one. Not so much in the sense that I'm not sure if I'll do fine, but rather that my grade for this class, Legal Method, is the final exam. Nothing else.

With that in mind, I decided it would be in my best interest to not try and bum along with Zack, his friend from home Cody, and the girls (Kirstin, Sam, Cory) on what seemed to be a impromptu "road" trip to Wellington and back. Though I really do wish I could have gone - it involves a 12-hour scenic train ride through the North Island, and then I think they're picking up a car and driving back via the West Coast. The cards were stacked against me though - the car only had room for the five of them, so I'd have to book a flight back to AKL (which I wouldn't have objected to); but the dealbreaker for me was that when I called the hostel, I found out I wouldn't have been able to stay in the same room as they were in - the sixth bed was already booked. And everyone here knows damn well how much I hate meeting people and dealing with strangers.

So anyway, according to "official" university rules, as of 12 noon today, no one is allowed to have alcohol or make substantial noise within student housing for the remainder of the semester. In that light, we had a end of semester / Halloween bash on Friday night - aside from beers we brought ourselves, there was a very large amount of drinks on the house. I went as a representation of white trash - so I had a torn and stained wife beater on and some tattoos painted by Kirstin - I think there are pictures of them completed...I hope, I really want them!

Other than that, I'm really bored today. I don't plan to start studying until tomorrow, as my brain needs a mental break from studying after a test on Thursday (which was essentially the final). I got hung up on one question which I believed had a typo in it, and as a result didn't finish the test. I was not pleased about that - I will probably pass, but it won't be pretty. Even if I get say, a C+ in logic and a C in Art History, I will hopefully have either an A or high B in Legal Method and History to offset those grades, and maybe keep my GPA decent.
