| | Whinge Whinge Whinge! :
1) People who don't offer to repay you back after you accidentally printed off their work. It's not about the measly 24c, its about the whole principle. You don't just say, "oh i think that's mine" and walk off with it. you say "Please, let me repay you back a mere 24c for your kind act of generosity that is so sorely missed in this world today."
2) Tutors who don't die after they get bitten by poisonous spiders. (let me just confirm that is just a general statement and not any intention to go out and get a posionous spider to bite the leg off a certain somebody)
3) Tutors telling me to shut up whilst i'm talking. I AM NOT A LAW STUDENT THAT YAMMERS ON FOREVER!!!!
4) Old men offering me a bus seat then proceeding to attempt to speak to me in "ching chong"
5) Law students who enjoy the sound of their own voice.
6) Self Righteous Law students who think they're all that by informing all the volunteers that we were all cold-hearted bitches for apprehending a woman who stole $50 worth of goods from an op shop. Then he and his hippie girlfriend then stand in the middle of the shop demanding that we release the "poor woman who obviously cannot speak any English and doesn't understand our laws." which was counter argued by Barb (quick wits here!) "she just said she's from the middle east, don't they cut off their hands if they steal?"
7) Old people who come up to me and ask me if I can speak English properly and isn't it lovely that we're all assimiliating into the Australian culture. (yes i can fucking speak english and we're in Box Hill.)
8) Old people who think it's amusing to tell me they have mail-order brides from China/Phillipines/Thailand
9) Those mail order brides ordering me around the shop and getting all anal when I pretend I can't understand what they're saying.
10) American finance lecturers who think, since we're all asian, we surely are all international students, and thus enjoy making comments that clearly can be taken in only one way. "It's so nice to see that some of you have attempted to learn more about Australia and its' history rather then just studying all the time."
11) Students who snore when they're awake. I can't fucking hear the tutor/lecture
12) law students and laptops. i can't hear over their fucking typing.
Amusing little hummings:
1) Bus drivers who yell all the time. At passengers, at cars, at each other, at red lights, at pedestrians etc
2) Garbage bins in trees, dangling there like little christmas ornaments.
3) Bus Drivers running into signs that lead to the bus breaking down on the side of the road at peak traffic causing a traffic line stretching from miles on end.
4) Graduating students taking their photographs with their families next to the bookshelves in the law library.
5) Customers coming up and asking for a discount at the Salvos. I only find this amusing because i take great satisfaction from saying "Sorry, No discount" in a deadpanned voice. It only gets better after they go up to the senior staff because they don't believe me, whereby they cop a verbal beating. I wish people would just listen to me the first time round!
6) Customers who come up and ask for a discount on a toy truck priced at a high $1.50, then telling me it's for their nephew's birthday. What an awesome toy truck with a broken door that present will make.
7) Law lecturers musing about which child they love best based on Mother's Day gifts.
Things rocking my boat:
1) Enya- Book of Days
2) Eurovision
3) Matilda
