Good pulling.

What's up with your parents blocking the internet? I can somewhat understand their rationale when you're in school and you need to work hard, but now, you're just waiting around at home.

Thanks everyone, hopefully another 22lbs next week!

And Mindpower: you better get back into heavy heavy lifting old man!

I went to check out a place to stay today, it was pretty clean tidy, nice place, and the person seemed really nice, she was a 2nd year med student I think, probably a good influence on my studies haha, she must study alot, my mum liked the people and the place too. I'm gonna check out 2 more places in the next few days, hopefully I'll be out soon.

PA: so I think this means you still pull 1lb more than me... haha
What's up with my parents? well I'm not sure really, my dads all anti JP fitness, anti-doing weights, he thinks I'm gonna turn into a meathead haha, I don't really care if he thinks I'm becoming a meathead, I'm gonna stay in 181 or 165lbs weight classes this year anyway, hardly "meathead" sized!

Do your parents check this site to see what you post? Now THAT would be weird.

Haha, well they surely could check what I post if they wanted to, I'm not sure they would bother though, not that I really care if they read what I post, nothing to hide here, but it would be really really weird... I just tried to check facebook, and its blocked too, I think they are just being mean!

I'm just looking sharing a place with 1-2 others. The place I looked at today had 2 students there, an older med student(maybe 21) and her younger brother, starting uni this year, same as me.

The school would have dorms, probably all taken now, but I don't want to live in a tiny arse room, with toilet, laundry and kitchen shared between a crapload of people.

sounds fun, be sure to host wild parties/bring hot girls there/have intense world of warcraft battles there, as you're not under your parents' roof anymore.

and, it's kinda funny how your parents are "kicking you out", while mine are freaking out about me leaving in 7 MONTHS.

I got to the word 'intense' and (based on the first two suggestions, being host wild parties and bring hot girls) I just assumed the next word would be orgies.
Then I saw the next words were actually 'world of warcraft battles'.
HA
That was like the assumption song, you guys ever heard that?
It was exactly like that.


Simon! Nice pulling buddy. You going to get up to 400 soon or what?

Haha, I don't actually give a crap about the nice round number. I'm just adding 10kg(22lbs) each week to my single, although I think I'll add 5kg(11lbs) the week after I make 396lbs, to make 407lbs in 2 weeks time.
