Student Life

Filed under being a boy, daily, drunk, going out.

Three years of two minute noodles followed by decades of debt. That’s pretty well what university boils down to.

Well I am adapting to this new life of working part time, being poor(er), having some free time. It’s not all bad, I actually managed to go out on Saturday and Sunday night! Saturday night I went out to the 21st birthday of a chef I used to work with. If you think I’m strange you should meat her friends. Somewhere between being accosted by a caveman, a drag queen and a Samuri I decided to head into the Valley, Brisbane’s gay district.

I don’t remember much, but I know that there was a lot of drinking. Turns out those ‘double blacks’ are not in fact two life sized Omar Sheriffs, but rather double shot drinks. I know I ran into some people I hadn’t seen in years, my local grocer, two Brads that are dating each other, probably so they can both scream out their own names in bed, and a ’supermodel.’

I woke up for work the next morning, thankfully not hung over, but rather still drunk. It helped me deal with the day. So I went home and napped after work until I was awoken by my phone. My good friend Kyle was visiting from another city and wanted me to go out with him. How could I resist? So out we went again, this time however I had two glasses of coke and two glasses of water. It all went straight to my head. By 4am K and I picked up some guy called Adrian, only because he has the same name as me and after the way the two Brads were talking it seemed like a good idea at the time. MISTAKE. I won’t go into details, suffice to say my namesake was sent home, Kyle and I promptly showered and my nice Sheridan linen seems to be stained for good.

In the morning Kyle and I woke up and had pancakes, then after seeing him off I went into work to do some coffee training, stocktake and ordering.

Today however is much more mundane, uni lecture, followed by the purchase of several hundred dollars worth of books and a printer. I wish I could have spent that money on clothes, I need new jeans!
