Me, Myself, and I - That You Don't YET Know

2 more hours and 7 more minutes

Mm.. have quite a bit to write today...
Starting from the news that I read from the age dot com dot au just now... A man found $10,000 on a street (that's ten thousand dollars and not the stupid me writing ten dollars plus putting three zeros behind the comma instead of two... so that's ten thousand dollars) and giving it to the police station to return it to the Russian owner (who btw doesn't speak English at all that the police needed to call in an intepreter to well.. obviously interpret what he was saying) and... he didn't ask for a reward. A quote from the article - "We get wallets containing small amounts of money handed in. But to have a sum of this quantity handed in just renews your faith in people." - Obviously does!!! And I mean it.. I mean.. I just lost my wallet recently.. and was devastated about it.. I thought I wouldn't get it back.. I mean.. i thought 'hey.. what are the chances of people finding it on the bus and giving it to the bus driver instead of keeping it for themselves?' and you don't need to be a freaking genius to know that the answer is 'pretty slim'.. I was crushed... all my id, license, bank cards were in it.. and i just bought the wallet at the end of last year.. loved it so much.. That night I even dreamt about finding it and getting in back! The dream felt like it was real.. I mean .. I even thought to myself .. in that dream.. 'hey.. is this real or is this just a dream? ' and pinched myself to make sure it wasn't a dream.. and finally I was pretty sure that it wasn't a dream.. only to find out that I had really lost my wallet when I woke up in the morning.. (This shows that you can't really pinch yourself to make sure that something isn't a dream.. it just doesn't work like it does in TV) Anyway.. Then I called the 'lost & found' thingo for the second time.. and wallaa... they have my wallet.. Well.. I don't know if the bus driver was the one who found it or some other person did and gave it to the bus driver... but it sure renewed my faith in people :) :) :)
And this guy said "Put it this way - if I had lost 10 grand, how would I feel? I would be devastated. I wouldn't like someone else to be in that situation. I just wanted to return that money to whom it belonged, that was all. I feel good that I did the right thing . . . he must have worked a lot of years for that money" - You sure did the right thing mate! Good on ya! God bless you!

Mm.. moving on... I signed a petition with D yesterday.. to bring troops out of Iraq and not sending anymore.. anyway.. this girl who was holding the thingy came up to me and said "What's your perspective on bla bla bla war bla bla bla democracy bla bla bla" and I was like 'shit.. what should i answer.. i mean.. i dunno anything about those stuff and thought that she should ask D instead of me.. coz she's the one who takes international studies.. and australian international politics or something like that.. not me... definitely NOT ME!'
So I'm like.. "mm... I just don't like war..." And she's like "ooh.. ok.." Then she went on and on about democracy, government's bullshits, bla bla bla...

Next topic.. I read from MX yesterday that some people get impatient after 15 seconds in an elevator, whilst most get impatient after 30 seconds... I guess.. in a way.. it's true

Next one.. I watched Australian Idol concert at Fed Square yesterday.. It's free.. so why not.. Saw Guy, Callea, Casey, and Shannon.. plus the top 13.. I was only interested to see the ex winners & runner ups plus Anne from the top 13.. Go Anne! I like her coz in a way, she's like Paulini.. Btw.. Paulini's new album is coming out this month.. or her new single.. I dunno.. but anywho.. Yay!!! Back to the topic.. I wasn't standing at the front front.. but quite close (a bit more front than the middle) that I could still see their faces... So it was a good show.. quite worth it.. hold on.. it was a free concert.. so I can't really say it's worth it huh.. mm.. it was great..

Gotta stop writing now.. My sis wanna watch House on the computer coz my bro has just finished downloading it...

And by the way.. IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TOMORROW! Hahahaha.. Finally 18.. Legal age for everything!!!
