Engineering and physics so I guess to be expected... Yeah that's really true, the time since that post I've kinda reflected upon things more and I now am getting more of a feeling for things I think. It's just so weird going from high school where you normally understand things as you go/can ask your teacher about it, to uni where most of the time you are in the "I don't understand" area. Then you have to go home and understand it yourself :P Talking to other engineering/physics students I have found that I have chosen a quite tough first semester as well, which probably doesn't help either :P Ah yeah all the major stuff. It's so hard to make a decision on stuff because honestly so many things sound cool and interesting to me. Like I think damn I miss doing chemistry but then if I did chemistry I'd miss doing physics... It is annoying too because if you don't have a plan for your major then it can greatly increase the amount of time you spend at uni because of having to catch up on different courses for different majors :P Planning out my day.... :D Nah but this is very true, I have forced myself to make a plan, honestly without a plan nothing works I found out. Not harsh at all, if I had my way I'd probably be studying so many different things. I find myself waking up sometimes thinking "you know what politics might be pretty cool". This doesn't stem from me disliking what I am doing now, rather that there's just so much out there to know but you are confined to a small section of stuff. But my degree in itself has so many restrictions with course choices, that I am forced to stay focused lol. Really good advice as well, especially with the ride my bike around town :') Yeah with test nerves I think it was all just a bit daunting for the first time around looking back at it. I think I know what to expect now a lot better, so hopefully I shouldn't get too nervous in the future. Yeah, yeah saving websites for sure. Microsoft edge has a new "save tab feature" and by the end of the day I usually have like 25 tabs and just save them all but don't really look at them again... Too true to get your priorities set and watching out for distractions. I'm sorry to hear about your mom though :( Thanks everyone for their advice it has truly been helpful and I have learnt more about myself and know more about what I need to look out for. Time to power through these last few weeks before end of semester. Then during holidays I can spend more time on here :)

Fixing up a car to drive in it again.

Yeah that's true but the world has definitely moved to a more peaceful state, it might not seem like it with all the media attention to conflicts and all. But right now is the most peaceful the world has even been. If you don't believe me then here's a video with links explaining the thinking behind this . Anyway I just thought I'd say this because we've made progress towards a more peaceful world already but there's still far more that needs to be done, hopefully if we keep pushing for peace and acceptance, wars will become fewer and fewer. But yeah I am grateful for whoever chooses music at my uni. I've heard more Coldplay being played there in the past 10 weeks than I have anywhere else... Like I've been hearing trouble and princess of china, songs that I have never heard being played on radio before. I am also grateful for other people. Like I was wearing my parachutes Coldplay shirt from the latest tour (pretty sweet of them to be selling tour shirts with their first album). Sidenote: did tour shirts from their latest tour cost you guys like around $50ish as well? :P Anyway continuing, I have just been getting quite a few people appreciating coldplay which is awesome. Mostly followed by "it's their only good album"... But yeah I was feeling pretty flat after a 3 hour physics prac and this girl I walked past complimented me on my shirt and it honestly made my day lol.

I'm a bit late but this interview is pretty interesting indeed. Especially when referring to Guy and saying that "it is always good to have a shopper in the band" :P I wonder what kinda stuff they've picked up from the random shit Guy buys ahahahha. Chris talking crap about playing in France ahahah and he tried to save himself afterwards before abandoning the whole thing...

It's a bit late but I am sorry about your dog as well :( I was just wondering how do you guys who are at uni/have been at uni balance your lives and cope with it? Because right now I've been going flat out and it is my first year and first semester. I can't imagine how much worse it must get... I am seriously putting in like every spare moment I have into doing project work/assignments/quizzes/pre reading/study all the endless assessment. Then it comes to exams which I feel so underprepared for since I am stuck doing assignments and stuff and get marginal time to actually study for them. The tests also being nicely placed on Saturdays at 9am doesn't help either :P Any tips to manage test nerves as well? I mean I can do this work because I do enjoy what I am doing but I just wish it wasn't draining my life at the same time. I thought year 12 was bad as well, it honestly was 10x easier than this.

Brilliant ahahaha. I heard "Princess of China" play at the uni food court which was pretty cool since I've like never heard it being played on the radio around here.

I'm so sorry I've been so incredibly busy lately with midsems :/ I'll try my best to make this next one though! :) I voted for a date and playlist, there isn't a time poll up yet is there?

I'll have to vote Strawberry Swing :( I agree with I ran away #SaveSquareOne

Spies has to be mine today, just love the feeling of it and reminds me of my time in Germany sooo much. I can just visualise the youth hostels I was staying in lol.

I'm sorry guys I can't make this time either :( I am doing some mountain biking early tomorrow morning so can't be up late. I hope it is still great and maybe we can have another catch up party later :P But I hope it turns out well in a couple of hours :)

I am starting to get sick, feeling the nice rough, dry sore throat and cough coming on. I am grateful that at least I am getting sick now instead of having to deal with going to uni whilst feeling terrible... Yeah I agree though, I'd love to meet you guys :)

One of my favourites What is this feeling that I can't explain? And why am I never gonna sleep again? What is this thing I've never seen before? A little boy lost in a breaking storm Things that I don't understand
