I had my first day back at tafe today. It was good, but sort of weird. We’ve got a quite a small class, which I like because there’s something about a smaller class that’s a bit friendlier. Even so, there were only 7 of us, which might be just a bit too small! Our teacher said that there will be a couple more on Thursdays, because some people alternate between a morning and night class. It’d be good to be able to get paid time off to do the course, but I don’t think it’s exactly relevant to my line of work.
Anyway, class went ok, but I think it will take a few lessons to get back into the swing of it. We have a different teacher this year, who I knew before, but it’s like when you started a new grade at primary school and had to get used to a new teacher. She’s really nice, and I think it will be a good year.
On another note, I’m stopping with the eBay for a while. There was something I really wanted, but the auction finished while I was at tafe, so I didn’t know whether I’d bought it until I got home. Before I left for class, I put a bid on it, hoping that I wouldn’t be outbid. As it turns out, I ‘won’ the item, which I’m really pleased about - it had better be as good as it looks in the pictures, else I’ll be slightly pissed. The downside is that I don’t have much in my bank account any more. So I am taking a forced break, which is probably a good thing!

I know, Dawn, it sucks
On the other hand, I’m looking forward to getting the rest of my stuff!
Heh, I’m not that much of a suck, JR
Although I did buy my chocoholic teacher a block of chocolate last year.
It would be fantastic, Jessica… eBaying all day with no cares in the world!

Online shopping is fun, Saphiryn, but sometimes it’s hard to stop
Nice work, Rich!

I hear ya! I’m getting a new wedding ring and it’ll cost me a pretty penny so I’ve asked him to wait to order it so I’ll have the $ to pay for it. Sucks being poor.

A new wedding ring, Yaya - excellent! What’s it like? It’s awful when there’s something you really want, but you have to save for ages to get it. I know all too well what that’s like
I love eBaying too, Dawn - a little too much I think! And it’s so much easier to shop online. Once I know what I want, I can often get it cheaper online than in shops anyway.
