Brendan would be well and truly finished his exam now....wonder how he went?
I'm soooo glad I've finished uni and big exams etc. I used to hate the feeling of driving to an exam, feeling sick and shaky because I've been awake all night and smoked 2 packets of cigarettes while studying.

Yeah......been thinking of him all morning....hope it went well. I sent him a text asking. He's prolly watching the dog trials now
The worst I had was one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and then one on the following morning
I used to always cop that shit at uni too. You'd have a 3 week exam block and I'd have 3 exams all in the same week!?!?!? And quite often a morning AND afternoon exam. Grrrrrrr....

What did you do at uni?
I did 1 year of Bachelor of Business before I decided I didn't like it and dropped out
Glenn was telling me something about the air quality there being really bad?? He said something about they've just set up a 14th and 15th monitor thingamajig that tests the air quality. Apparently the lead levels in the air is REALLY bad :eek: He said a local guy was saying it's so bad, he can wipe down his outdoor table every morning and it's covered in a fine black dust (lead) and that he's looking at moving, for the sake of his kids.

I got different results every time I did it....from 'Summer' (from the O.C, can't remember her real name?) to Marilyn Manson and Keanu Reeves :eek:

Have you heard about this?
It's kinda made up my mind NOT to move there :(
WHAT? NO! I've never even heard that and I've been here my whole life! ha ha Mum and Dad live in the suburb that gets a black dust at their house (Yarrawonga)...
Okay, I just did some research and found that they have set up new air monitoring stations due to a black dust. Townsville's air ranges from "Good to Very Good". Mt Isa does have a lead problem.

The black dust is attacking the absolutely RICHEST part of Townsville! They're probably just whiney snobs (bar my mum and dad -- they're awesome! ) haha
The lady in that article is from Edinburgh street which is right underneath mum and dad's street on Yarrawonga hill. Mum and Dad's balcony basically overlooks her street and not once have I walked out there and seen any dust at all. And we moved there when I was 10!
Maybe mum and dad's house is just lucky....don't know.

Well if it's just harmless dust, that wouldn't bother me 1 bit.....I'm used to red dust here, so would just be a change of colour and I'm not racist
So, you were considering MOVING HERE?!?!?!?!? :eek:
Glenns been trying to talk me into it since he moved there and I had said no way on earth!!!!
But......I'm starting to worry about the kids not having him around :(
Steven (our oldest) is 12 now and if Glenn is going to be there for 5 years......yeah....12-17 is a pretty important age (as is any really) for him to not have his Dad around :(
I realised saying he's got buckley's chance getting me to move there was thinking selfishly and I have to put the kids before myself.
Comments

The fact that someone is moving away from Townsville due to this black dust is a bit overboard! It's not THAT bad!
