So I came back home early because the strike was on in usyd. They are very crazy people. I walked through the picket line the first time and everything was fine because there were cops making way for students to go through. Then I went back through it to go and buy uni jumper which I really like. I think I could sleep in it forever. Then I went back from the uni-mart to fisher library to study and this dude from the picket line who was really nice came up to me and started talking about the strike and if I know what's going on .. I said yeah pay cuts. You guys aren't getting enough money which isn't going to make you want to teach more until you demand a pay rise etc etc and he's like you have class? And I said yes. Tutes or lectures? Tutorials. You know you can miss them? I said yes but I don't want to have to catch up on stuff later. And he was really nice and let me go :) Then I got through the picket line and this guy jumps infront of me and says 'GO HOME. THERE'S NO CLASSES. JOIN THE LINE. STAND UP FOR THE STRIKE' and I said 'Nooooo I'm finneeeee'

And that was my first experience of the many strikes at usyd. I didn't go to uni last sem whenever they had a strike.

AND if you noticed, I went to the library to study. I NEVER DO THAT.

But before I reached Fisher I heard my uncle behind the fences of the new accommodation buildings he was building for students to live in. And I screamed out 'uncle' in chinese and HE CAME OUT AND WE TALKED. IT WAS SO NICE :) It made my day knowing someone who has the same blood as me was at uni :) We had such a nice chat :) Today was a good day :)

Happy smiles :)

Now I feel like watching a teen movie. Perhaps twilight. God damn. I got to admit Twilight was good. Better than the other 3. I just like the part when Edward is first introduced. He looked hot. Now knowing his character more through the other sequels, he kinda bores me.

Also I've been enjoying life lately. Uni hasn't been a pain.. yet. Work is getting a lil harder because I'm starting to see the flaws in working with customers but work + uni  = good conversations. I like talking to people and asking them questions, then throwing in a smile in the end. I like being friendly.
But normally when I see someone who walks into the store and knows what they're looking for and what to ask/ isn't afraid to approach you and demand things from you, I try to avoid them. They're mostly middle aged women or young mothers. They know everything and want everything and won't stop til THEY GET IT. So I hand it over to the professionals :)
