I think I will drop out of Roman History. It sucks, and I can't find my tutorial room. That said, I spent fifteen minutes looking for it, so no, I didn't give up easily. I'm just too far behind. Oh well. This is a very depressing and dissapointing prospect, though.

In other news, my driving has improved vastly - VASTLY! I only made one major screw up, and okay, it was going from second to first at 40km/hr, but hell, I wasn't on a major road. Yes, I drove all the way to Rossmoyne from Midland, and it took me an hour because I went the indirect way. Rossmoyne is such a nicer suburb than Midland, but I suppose I could say that of any suburb. I mean, I fucking hate Midland. There, I said it. And I do, I really, really do. Well, not so much the suburb as it's inhabitants [not me/my family, but pretty much everyone else, with maybe one exception.]. Oh, I do. But enough about that.

I brought things. I brought passport photos of me - $9.95 from a Post Office, marxipan_xlii, so-as you know. They look funny, very funny. But I don't care. I also brought suction plate reversible L/P plates, but they only came with two suction caps [stingy bastards]. So maybe tomorrow some time we could find ourselves:
a. A Post Office
b. A licensing centre
And order us some ID. ^_^

I am angry with all the Coles/Myer places I have visited today. They did not have the product that I wanted. the_icon_of_sin, do you know where I would find something like this, within one of Coles/Myer's fine establishments...

[Yes, I want the fancy Logitech one, not the el cheapo DSE one I saw for <$20. Because my webcam is el cheapo DSE, and I want a funky looking Logitech thingy for a change... Shh, yes, I am materialistic.

I did, however, buy Donnie Darko the Director's Cut with the gift voucher that grey_assassin gave me. Yay!

Going to lone_one's and watching Futurama/almightybean, marxipan_xlii, im_the_end and Fripp play Halo [in left-right order from where I was sitting], with James-fighting on the part of Marie and patterns_of_chaos was quite amusing.

I will go read Psych book now. Then sleep.

Harris Technology counts as one of CML's fine establishments. :P

Oh, and according to their website, they should have 4 at Osborne Park. (Yes, I know it is a bit of a bitch to trek out there... alternatively, you could order it online)

Aww, Osborne Park.. that is far. But I lack credit card and have only gift voucher with which to make my pur-chase, so I must do that.
Thanks ^_^

Better plates to buy are the ones available at the licensing centres, which are thin plastic with lots of holes through them that stick straight onto your windscreen. No suckers (they always fall off anyway) and they peel off really neatly. I had mine stuck to the window of my car for almost the entirity of the time I was on P-plates and they never fell off.

(tried and failed to google an image of what they look like - but if you go into any licensing centre they're right there on the counter next to the "How to drive" manuals. At least, they were last time I was there (and last time my little sister was there, too))

Hm, I have some of those [L plates, I *think* they gave them to me at the licensing place], but mine won't stick :( I had to use blu-tack on them... but of course, I'm probably just doing something wrong >_<
So I will give the P plates that I think I'll be given a try, when I get them, thankee for letting me know :D
