Please don't last minute buy, literally. Coming to the register when it's 10 minutes till closing and when there is only one register left open doesn't help us close up shop on time.
Sincerly
Workers in retail who want to go home on time.
P.S we're not getting overtime.

The Train Station
Living on campus at university, I've no need to catch any sort of transport to get to class - I just need my own two legs. The train station is located, for a vast majority of students, at least a 10 minute walk away from their desired location, unless you're an engineering or architecture student in which case the time can be halved. The station is geographically in the next suburb over but on the borderline.
I've been at uni for four years and on Friday, I walked to that station which many thousands of students have done a hundred times over, for the first time. This piece of information was laughable and proceeded with a few looks of shocks and 'really?' Yes really and if I ever catch a train (which is rarely as the bus suffices) it's never from that station.

sore!
Yesterday I brought the entire year's worth of notes (4 and a half large binders) along with so me of the recommended texts to uni for a practise oral exam, (which is open book) and now my shoulders are hurting so much! I had to use 2 green bags plus my big uni bag and it took me twice as long to get to uni because I was walking extremely slow. Need to do some good stretches and have some nice hot showers and I should be feeling ok in the next few days. One more lecture until STUVAC time. gyah!

Productive
- Placement in the morning
- Lunch
- Booked my birthday dinner
- Went to uni to find out class was cancelled which is both good and bad
- Good because it meant I got to do groceries earlier and
- Bad because that means catch-up lectures will be scheduled soon.
- Did groceries
- Doing some laundry now and just chilling in the lounge room biding my time until dinner.

Winter Blues
After a brief warm spell a few weeks ago, I am unkindly reminded of the fact that it is, in fact, still winter. The weather has been slowly cooling down again, I'm wearing my coat again and it even rained today.
I am slowly getting back into my uni routine. Went and saw the Medicine Revue last night which was very enjoyable; funny jokes, lovely music and good dancing.
Ebay has been kind to me lately as well. Have bought 2 things this week :)
