so, hi there

Aussies, has anyone returned goods to Amazon recently, using a prepaid shipping label supplied by them? I'm just a little confused. Sadly, my Kindle died, but the good news is that they're replacing it! My precious...

So, I'm kind of continuing to suck at this whole updating-lj-on-a-regular-basis thing. Happy New Year, I guess?

State of me:
- pretty stressed over work (so, same as normal for at least 9 months)
- pretty stressed over not being stressed enough over study (my hopefully-last exam is in March)
- not going to the gym enough
- films I've seen most recently (Harry Potter - okay, but dull in patches, like the book) and King's Speech (fucking amazing)
- tentatively planning a trip to South America with my sister for later in the year (omg!)
- reading a fuckload of Glee fic

Perhaps I'll set myself a daily goal of posting a picture that makes me happy? Though perhaps a weekly goal would be more realistic. Anyways, in November, I went to the zoo with my family and iibnf, to see the baby elephants (especially the new baby girl). It was the most gorgeous spring day - blue skies, mild, nice breeze, and crowds weren't too bad at all. Taronga Zoo is right on Sydney Harbour, and the view is a distraction from the exhibits :)

I had to return my first Kindle too, and I couldn't work out how to make the supposedly pre-paid label actually print out so it was pre-paid. I ended up just paying shipping myself, since my flatmate did kind of kneel on my Kindle in the first place, which killed the screen.

But then, to my great delight, Amazon refunded me twice for the replacement Kindle. Huzzah! Free Kindle!

I asked at the post office, and they said it wasn't pre-paid. I'll just have to fork out the money, though I swear the customer service person I spoke to mentioned that they'd reimburse me if I had to pay myself, so we'll see...

Yes, I can't get too worked up over having to pay (the fucking expensive, cause it has to be trackable) shipping, since I'm pretty sure I...contributed to the screen getting broken/frozen.
