I am now the proud owner of a newly formatted "teletubbyland computer" - yes, that's right, I have upgraded to Windows XP!! It's pretty groovy, and the computer hasn't crashed since it was upgraded, which is impressive, since it normally crashes about 3 times a day. It's exciting....! *Thankyou Adam!*

I've just done an ensemble concert concert for the Music Department - playing in Purcell Trumpet Sonata and Milhaud "La Creation du Monde", which was pretty good, although the condustor wasn't easy to follow at all. There were a couple of points where we barely kept together because noone knew who to follow. Grrr. I have loads of rehearsals in the next few days, but I'm going to try to get out of the Tuesday one, because I want to go help Rich do next week's Barefacts. On Tuesday I'm meant to have a 2 hour rehearsal, followed by a 2 hour research seminar, then 3 hours of Orchestra. It's crazy - I'm going to try and get myself out of the first two. I want to have a life beyond the Music Deaprtment. I'm really enjoying getting involved in all the Union stuff this year. I figure I'm never going to ave this opportunity again, so I may as well try to squash in as many things as I possibly can this year. I'm loving it, and I hope the rest gets even better. :o)

It's Drag and Fetish Night tomorrow - woo hoo! It's the best theme night of the year, where almost everyone in the Union is dressed up, and it so amazing to see the different costumes everyone comes up with. Adam was going to go as a Netball team with 6 other guys, but that's fallen through, so I think we're going shopping tomorrow. It's going to be fun. I'm very excited! :o) :o)

Final note: there are two guys wrapped in toilet roll running around outside Rawson. I think they're trying to be Mummys. He he, Halloween can me quite comic!
