I didn't have any scheduled class today but decided to head to Uni anyway to attempt to fix my classes. For the first time I actually found a department that understood what I was looking for (Land and Food Resources) and we scheduled the appropriate courses and it looks like this will finally work out nicely. I went to Brunswick for a bit in search of a pet fish to keep me company but didn't have any luck as the selection was small and the fish bowls were $30 a piece! I figure I can try down at Vic's Markets tomorrow because there is a much larger pet shop there. I did pick up some school supplies and some pants for my costume. The college is throwing a welcome back CRD (Common Room Dance) with a Time Warp theme and I have decided to go as a mummy. After dinner I joined a team for a Trivia Night and we had a good laugh at the questions. We didn't finish too badly but got points deducted for cheating because we may or may not have placed an illegal phone call to find out the Capital of Fiji...
Day 17
Today I thought I had a night class but it turns it out it was actulally last night - oops. So after learning of my failure I finished my book and decided to go for a run in the cold - brrr. I then headed down to the markets in search of a fish. I found fish but the equipment was just ridiculous - I just can't justify putting out 30 bucks for a 2 dollar goldfish. I have some people checking their homes for spare stuff so maybe I can knock down the fish cost. I started filling in my schedule so I could plan some trips about Australia - but I am still waiting for an email from one of my professors to let me know dates - so I didn't get too far there either. After dinner I had help preparing my mummy costume for the CRD - lots of toilet paper. The dance was a lot of fun - unfortunately I made a HUGE mess. I started shedding as soon as I walked out the door and soon everyone had toilet paper stuck to their feet. Mental note - mummies used bandages - who knew toilet paper was so fragil?? After the dance a bunch of people went down to the local pub in costume and I tagged along as well (leaving a trail). I was tired so I didn't last long before coming home (leaving another trail) and getting into bed.
Some fellow CRD attendees....
Pop singers, Marsha Brady, 60s, and Cleopatra
Never did I think I would be somewhere dressed as a mummy and then dance to the song - "Don't you wish your gilrfriend was hot like me"
Cleopatra and Cleopatra 1,000 years later....

Awesome costume. How many rolls did that take to create?
