Right, so now the holiday has ended. It is the first week of school as we speak.

 It has been a rather hard to describe winter break. There’s, of course, the events that made it more interesting such as the A-W-E-S-O-M-E trip to the Grampians with the Labsome kids and staff members (Brrrr, the pinnacle & flat rock and the lack of mobile phone reception anywhere cept on the highest peaks).
And then there’s the lovely weather (which has just caused some minor hailstones yesterday, strengthening my belief of the usefulness of The Age’s “feels like:” temperature), dropping down to a “feels like” temperature of about 1.6 some mornings.
Of course, there’s also people(FRIENDS!) coming down to visit and telling me how lucky I am to be in Melbourne instead of where-ever they are studying in at the moment (aka Perth, Woollongong & Brissy – I hear you people). Fact is, I do really like Melbourne already.

But that is that, the holiday has come to an end. It’s back to 14 weeks of intensive writing, reading, slogging, dying-over-my-work-and-waking-from-death-again because I need to get the thesis done up nicely by the 21st of October. Caffine, well-wishes and advice are much appreciate over this period.

Good luck, whoever reading this.

Over and out.

  1. I’m looking forward to hearing the stories from the roadtrip. I’m in denial about only have 11 weeks or something to finish my project. Aaarrrgh! See you during the week.
