I just counted the number of Metcards I currently have, and it’s at 558 (and a bus ticket and ferry ticket from when I was in Sydney). Melbourne is planning on bringing in a system similiar to Japan’s smart card system where you can buy a smart card and every time you use public transport, you can scan it and it’ll deduct funds from your account. While I like the idea of just having to carry one card instead of stockpiling a lot in your wallet (I have zone 1 and zone 1+2 tickets in my wallet – stupid WoW dinners and Charmeleon being in zone 2 >_<), the downside is, I might never get to 1000 Metcards. It has taken me 5 years to get 558, and now that I’ve decided that I want to walk to uni every day, I use public transport even less. Plus, I’m learning to drive, so once I get a car, that’ll mean even less public transport use. =(
TSD said that he can help me with 14 and 17, but in exchange, I have to help him with his list. One of the things on that list is a making a movie with a script, which I can do, only he wants to make a WoW movie, and my account runs out soon. It doesn’t seem like either of us will be able to write a script before that happens, but I don’t really want to add a game card just to make a movie in exchange for some Metcards (OK, but some, I mean a lot, as he says he has a lot, but is it really worth it?). Most of the other stuff on his list I can’t really help him with.
[EDIT 01/06/2007 10:02PM] TY to Kalg for pointing out that I had “Buy a car” twice on my list. So 20 has been changed.

I\’m curious as to why you want to learn Italian. Wasn\’t japanese enough for you? :D
As for 16, I do like a good stint in front of the computer playing Freecell. My best has been 23 straight wins, but I\’m pretty confident if I had an entire day during the holidays, that can be bettered. I usually need to get on a roll.
And I can also help with 17, if you don\’t want mind not really "earning" them yourself. I don\’t know why, but I keep mine. And they\’re building up. Let me count them…wah! 100 exactly! ^^
Anyway, keep up the study!
sumone has an italian fetish >_>
and wow u dont really have many expectations from life do u to have a list like this …
"and wow u dont really have many expectations from life do u to have a list like this …"
What does that mean?! Pulkit, you never make any sense. T_T
I learnt Italian in primary school and high school. I never really became fluent at it though (same can be said about Japanese). I am also a big fan of Italian food, pizza being my favourite. :D
It\’s strange, but I find that I\’m better at Freecell when I\’m depressed, and I\’ve been so happy lately that I can\’t seem to get on a good winning streak. :(
