Long time between drinks

Massive void of not posting since life has been just been more interesting. You start to know your friends better, you start spending the occassional late night out, and have 3 drink too many. Good times been rolling.

Exams was the usual fuss and mess and sweat, except for our very first exam when the power went out. I'd finish the mcq by then and there was barely enough natural light to see the paper. So I just started making notes to answer the long-response questions. Then one of the supervisors came in and announced that the entire Lidcombe campus was blacked out, so will everyone please stop writing and wait quietly. So we wait. Then the news came that the entire Lidcombe/Auburn area had suffered a blackout. So exam cancelled. We had to redo the test an the end of the week, and it was pretty much exactly the same with minor changes in the long response. Still, I wrote heaps for the long-response and in the end forgot what to write for the last question so I shotgun'd it. Meh.

Clinicals start on the 7th of June but I'm heading to Adelaide for my clinicals, so I'm jetting off this Sunday. Nothing much to do except last minute frenzied downloading and repeated checking of all my gear. And I will forgot one essential item. That always happens.

Dunno if I can actually blog along the way, but 6 weeks is quite awhile. I'm sure there's a net cafe somewhere.
