back & schoolwork

i'm back! did lots of shopping and wandering around and looking at things and being warm, which is generally overrated but quite nice for a change. i obviously didn't go overboard telling people i'd be away as four separate people sms'd me to meet them in melbourne.
however.
will shortly be panicking about the amount of work needs to be done before next monday...eeek, before thursday. crap. you remember those ads with a picture of the earth from space and the caption "ignore it and it'll go away"? turns out it's not true for schoolwork.
