I wanted my subway toasted today but noo the toaster wasnt functioning
Was that the subway at uni, cos it's always conveniently 'broken'.

Protip: The management have never used it because it takes too much time and they think uni students being uni students will be impatient.

If only they used it! Fucking love toasted subs.

I miss university. I miss Subway. And getting off at Warabrook. And banana bread and chicken/avacado/sweet chilli/cheese foccaccias.
Did that today. Did that. Didn't do that. Did that. Didn't do that.

Will probably miss the place when i'm gone tbh. Progressing through studies to a point where I'm on first name basis with the heads of school and getting into the staff side of things too. Then boom, i'm gone and new kiddies take my place.

Would be a weird experience in the first few years of being a teacher I think. Putting so much effort into HSC students, and then they go, and you start with a new batch. Years obviously overlap for teachers, but still.

You've now stoked my desire to go in and everytime I order a sub from there ask for it to be toasted. First, at the bread choice bit, then again when they put the sauce on.

I will do this everytime. Will journal my experience and take note of the various excuses they give. It'll be the Dear Diary I never had. :)

What.the.fuck.
Why on earth do people still drive to uni? Catch a bus! There's plenty. Drive to a bus stop and catch a bus!!

And you people complain about the parking at Gardo! I would much rather try get a park there.

Anyway, my funny quirk of the day is that an old woman just yelled at me in my car through the windscreen.
....Wot?...I can't -?
:D

Haha. Sif a smoker would waste their smokes like that.

Have fun driving. Apparently this morning there was a car accident and it took a friend of a friend 50 minutes to get off the bypass. Eek.

Speaking of accidents, I just had a really bloody close call because I am stupid. :):(

I know right? :( I need to be more patient. I tried to get in front of a bus to 'save time', but now I think about it I would've only been behind it for 2 seconds before it turned the corner and I went straight ahead. Turns out there was a car coming down the hill behind the bus. Was.not.thinking. *drinksteadrinksteadrinkstea*

For once I'm glad I had an 8am lecture.

That said, I take the long way around the bypass in the mornings anyway to avoid the traffic.

i had this ridiculous woman sitting on 80 in a 100 zone this morning when i was trying to get to the station.
and then, at the time i would have overtaken her she decided it was time to speed up, so i was like "ok, false alarm. she's going normal speed now"
then, around the corner and wham. back to 80.
i was like @@^#(!@!

Oh man I hate that shit hey. Some people just can't handle speed limits or something.
Tbh I hate when people get on your tail when you're doing the speed limit (and I like to go a lil over anyway). Get on my ass if I'm going 10 under, fine, but geez. This is like, in 70 zones too. It's not that slow as it is..

then after like 10 minutes she came back and twisted again because they were not getting enough blood...

EDIT: lol, whatever that is above doesn't sound right....LOL
