A Chris-in-the-morning inspired blog. Somewhere I can hypothesis on human nature and narrate my own journey of self discovery. That sounds so cheesy! Basically somewhere that I can just spill out the contents of my head.

 
Okay so three weeks in and I can't stand the cooking already! I've decided that as of next week I'm going to do my own cooking. I can't eat this way. All we've had for dinner for the past two weeks is sausages, chicken nuggets and fish cakes. I need real food. I'm going to break the news to the boys tonight. What I'm not looking forward to is Ivan nitpicking. He's going to ask things like are you going to buy your own vegetables and what about all the things like spices etc. I'm going to buy my own veges and I brought most of the spices with me and the things that are already in the cupboard I've already paid for.
I'm looking forward to next week already. The first thing I'm going to make is Butter Chicken! Yay!

Well Sarah is really nice. I've finally found out. We've got a bit in common too. Not the least being that we both have asian boyfriends. Actually she told me some horror stories about people abusing them when they go out. Kiwis, polynesian girls and older asian people. Lovely. But her boyfriend Peter is really nice too. And he speaks Cantonese like my Cloud. They haven't met each other yet, but Sarah actually met Cloud before I did! She met him when he was in town one day with Todd. Because she already knew Todd she said hello to them. Apparently she's always had a thing for asian guys too, and apparently when she first saw Cloud she thought he was pretty damn good looking. When I told her my boyfriends name was Cloud she said 'Cloud's your fella? Damn he's a good catch.' I told Cloud last night what she said and he was quite flattered.
Well as far as the flat is going, we are getting the washing machine tommorow after noon. I owe Damian $104 which is not too bad. Except I'm only going to be able to pay it back a little bit every week. He doesn't like that idea but the fact of the matter is that I don't have the cash. The guys knew that already. We've had a couple of arguments already. Too be expected with Ivan in the house. I was only involved in one. Okay so Ivan had made alist of things he wanted to bring to the landlords' attention. Light bulbs missing (oh no we'll have to pay $2 for a light bulb can't have that.) no garage door, lights that don't actually work. And also 'Water doesn't heat up adequately.' So the hot water is on a system where gas heats it as it's used. I honestly don't see what the landlord could do about it. It's just how it works. So I said as much to him. He said he may as well bring it up witht he landlord. So I said 'Well just make sure you make it clear to the landlord that it's you that wants this not the rest of us. Because I don't want him thinking I think that.' And so Ivan says 'Well don't bite my head of. I'm just trying to make things better for us.' I know this doesn't sound so bad from his point of veiw whens is written down like this. But Ivan is a real pillock I swear he thinks that it's his right that Higher Powers should change the weather so he doesn't have to get wet running from his car to class in the winter. Ivan never does_anything_wrong. Oh no. Even when HE backed into Todds' car he tried to make it like it wasn't his fault.
