Post Vacation

Here is a little update on what I have been doing since lecture recess. Midterms were technically before lecture recess but I had them all due after my break. I turned in my rabbit paper, handed in a lab paper, and took a psych stats test. This week I'm busting my butt to finish another lab paper and study for a final! So this is a sort of awakening that I have to do everything that I want in the next 7 weeks.

I celebrated by weekend by attending Groovin' the Moo, which is essentially this giant festival of music. It seemed like everyone and their mother from Northern Queensland showed up to this event. There were heaps of bands playing, various DJ's throwing down their best, and loads of people dressed in ridiculous outfits. Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures. Now I wish I had brought my camera instead of my flask :).

So I partied all day during this concert by dancing and throwing up my hands whenever the bands told us too. It was a lot of fun, but I was surprised how difficult it was to keep track of the group. I gave up sometimes, but I always just floated around for too long and ended up calling my friends to find out where they were, only for them to move/me take forever to spot them. If I ever go to an event like this again, I won't try to keep with the group; its too much hassle.

After Groovin' I took a special bus back to uni and went out to town. I figured it'd be a mess because people from the concert would be there. Instead it ended up being dead. The friend that I came down with just talked to a bartender for awhile, got a cocktail, and talked on the back deck of a bar/restaurant. To end our night we got McDonald's and headed home for bed.

Today was nothing really too impressive. Still attempting to get work done, I took a not needed break and threw my boomerang in a field across the road. I don't know if Uncle Rusty has magic or if just taught me so well how to throw the thing, but I was lousy. Going from almost catching my boomerang on my first throw with uncle rusty, to not having it return to me once on my own, was pretty discouraging. I quit after awhile and now its back to homework. Wish me luck!
