I only have one class tomorrow, albeit a 2 hour one. Journalism. Part of me is looking forward to it, and another part of me is dreading it. But I'm sure I'll be fine.

I hope that I know some of the people in my tute. I know I at least know one of them. I sure as hell Celeste isn't in my tute. Ugh, knowing my luck she probably will be. Oh well it can't be helped.

Mum and dad came down this morning, and getting out of bed was hell.

S stayed last night. It wasn't planned, and our whole idea of taking some 'time out' is still in firm plan. Starting tomorrow we're going to try and take a week break. It was supposed to be a 2-week, but we've been together a year already on the 9th of March. A year since we met and fell in love...gee can you hear those harps and violins playing. It's enough to make me gag.

But we're taking an exception to that night, since it's OUR night. We want to spend it together, and then go back on our 'timeout'. As he put it we're still together just not seeing each other, and not seeing other people.

It's kind of hard to explain but we've become so addicted to each other, and so adjusted to each other that we need a time out. I guess you could say we realised we'd morphed into each other. We act like a married couple for god sakes. We went out with some friends of his that were married and we acted more married than they did!!!

Damn I've been going through albums lately, albums I haven't heard in a while to prepare to review for my music site, and I'm falling in love with some again. Take Bon Jovi's "New Jersey" album. This is the album that really did it for me. It sealed my fate of loving Bon Jovi. I'd liked their other albums, but it wasn't until I heard bad medicine, lay your hands on me, blood on blood, and I'll be there for you....not to mention the passionate Living in sin that I knew my fate was sealed. I was a Jovi fan for life.

To this day this album just kicks ass. I'm on to my second copy of it on CD, but it's been a while since I listened to it. But damn it just tears me up.

But back to my parents coming down. Somehow S and I got roped into having breakfast with them, and dodging questions. I swear some of her questions could lead us to drink.

No, it wasn't that bad, although I can't say them showing up early in the morning; on my last morning before classes start again was a thrill. I so wanted to sleep in, we both did. Never mind.

I can't complain. We had breakfast with them, my mum bought me some groovy ankle socks and promptly took them back to Melbourne with her, dad gave me money for my concession and money for some groceries. All is good with the world.

That and I got an awesome leather jacket on layaway. It's gorgeous. $150 worth of gorgeous.

I wasn't going to buy it. Really hadn't planned to, despite the fact I had eyed it before and then mum said I should try it on.

I didn't see the harm in that. Tried on the 12 and it was HUGE on me, and then tried on the 10, and it fitted perfectly.

Still wasn't going to buy it. Honestly I wasn't.

Then my mum oohed and aahed about the perfect fit, S told me I looked sexy...God I love that man and his comments, and I admitted it looked good but it was still a little steep for a broke Uni student.

But my mum managed to convince me when she said she would slip me some money to pay for some of the jacket, and when she reasoned that I need a nice new winter jacket.

Needless to say I have about 7 already, including 2 other leather jackets. But she sold me.

So I am now the proud owner of a leather jacket on layaway.

It's gorgeous. But damn it I blame my mother for my spending habits. The woman is a shopping addict. And I may just have caught it from her.

I needed her to bring up a new clothes rack today cause well my wardrobe was full. That should be an indication that I need to stop buying new clothes, but nope I still buy. I actually have to have a good clean out of my wardrobe and see what can go and what can stay.

Actually I do need new clothes, especially for winter because I tend to live in the same clothes. I also need to buy some more 'going out' clothes cause well they tend to be all the same. Oh well.

But it was good to see mum and dad, although I kind of don't miss them much until I really see them.

My gramps is coming over in April too, so I will probably see him when I get some time off for Uni. We'll see. I'll also probably have a hell of a lot of assignments to be working on. I dunno.

There are only two of us here today, and have been pretty much all weekend. But that's cool. I've liked the nice peace and quiet.

I'm guessing everyone will be back tonight though for classes tomorrow.

It's going to be so weird going to Uni, and doing all this stuff again.

We'll see how it goes.
