Post Exam Celebrations

While I had my last exam yesterday, today I had to go to this last assessment thing where I didn't actually have to do any work, but attendance was compulsory. Anyway the thing ran waaaay over time and I got so bored of sitting there. I made the mistake of not using the bathroom during the short intermission that we had, and because of that I was busting to go for the 2nd half of the event.

So last night I went to the end of exam party for our cohort- there were heaps of people and food was provided, I bought some drinks and thought I'd try to mix. I mixed well enough while the alcohol's effects lasted- I was loud and obnoxious (more so than my usual self) and I laughed with everyone even though I had no idea what the joke was- everything just seemed so funny.

For some reason though I stilled remembered to not drink more than 1 standard drink per hour- probably because I spend so much time studying the effects of alcohol- and while I tried to wait my hour out I actually sobered up. I felt that all my energy was drained in a single moment and I crashed down on a couch next to a girl who was playing with her phone.

I tried talking to the girl and she was pretty nice, then soon into the conversation she brought up the fact that she had a boyfriend and it was some guy that I knew. I understood then that she thought I was trying to hit on her. Whoops. I didn't know how to correct the misunderstanding but I didn't want to just blurt out "actually I'm not trying to get with you", so I just kept going as if the fact that she mentioned her bf was just another piece of info.

Anyway it's not as awkward as it sounds, I think she felt pretty ok after I told her I liked Pokemon and I'd pre-ordered the new ruby remake. Speaking of that- I could be at the midnight launch like... right now. Oh well I'm not that nerdy.... I think

Now that I think about it- I've spent a fuckload of money this week. I've eaten out almost every single meal and the bills are adding up. I'd watch my spending but I'm working almost right off the bat and I don't think it's gonna get any easier, so....

Might as well spend a bit more and make myself happy. Happiness is hard to come by these days, after all.
