Knife wielding tomboy??...Me??.... NEVER!!

Another year older *sigh* and i find im always learning more about myself.... or did i already know it and was just in denial?!?!

Last satdy had a bit of a get together with some buddies and boy did we have fun!! It turns out i'm a "Mad angry Aussie woman!!" WOOHOO!! Well yea... Thanks Queenie for err putting that one together! You know you still love me though:D :P

The food was yummo (mayze can vouch for that i think ;) ) company was great (hey only special people came! :P) ANd once again we managed to stay up way too late playing mario tennis or mini games. HMm i guess my reaction time wasnt that great in the wee hours of the morning though.... Sorry jingles for not helping u win tennis!

It started early in the morning to the pitter patter of raindrops falling everywhere i could see... Thankfully though the wind came blew the clouds away and out came the sun and dried up all the rain (wait i feel a song coming on heehee)
ANyway so it was a dash to get food and get food we did!! I had never seen so much KFC chicken, didnt think it was really possible to get that much in a box, and im not talking just any old box but it was HUGE box!! At least we managed to eat through more than half of it, how we managed that i dont even want to know! I think im over the whole chicken thing now though...

Then it was dash home to make salad, do one last clean of the place, shower and make my beloved pavlova......MMMMMMMMMMM PAVLOVA!! Do you guys have any idea how much i love pavlova?!?! I had one piece that nite, the next day i ate it for breakfast (unhealthy i know) then morning tea, after that day i think i just ate the last two pieces cos they were crying out to me "EAT ME!! EAT ME!!" Hmm just talking about it makes me want to eat some more..... Alas theres none left! Oh and i nearly forgot we had a chocolate mudcake too, i think thats finally gone!!

But man there was so much food leftover, i finally got sick of chicken and fried rice still eating the crackers and dips though, empanadas hmm i think theyre just about finished and oh i still got two box of chocolates to get through. :) I wonder how many kilos il put on just because of this one event?...

SO wat the gang get me i hear you ask?? Hmm i got these funky fluffy boots which have been on my feet since then, well except for when i venture out of the house ;)
Some games, an interesting plant that ive yet to grow but apparantly it has a secret message (dont even ask me how ive no idea!) a necklace and perhaps part of the funniest present of all were the ones which are an attempt to turn me into a "woman"..... *sigh* when will they give up and realise im comfortable being the tomboy i am?!?! These girly pressies are pink!! Hello?! PINK?? So not my colour!!
Oh and theres also the bag of 100 Balls, seriously what the heck will i do with them?? True i could throw them at people but they hurt, i aught to know i was a target!

Activities went well too, theres the story of me bashing good guys faces... come on guys im not that bad. Theres the collage asking "Do you think it could be mental illness??" and "there's no need to get all psycho!"
And the sculpture which has a knife placed in "my" hand.... Am i seriously that scary?!?! Didnt think i was that err scary.... :D Heehee

But yea the nite was great and i Thank God that i could share the day with some cool people, you guys know who you are and i pray you'l keep encouraging me heaps in my journey to home, God bless you all and i know ive been blessed with brothers and sisters such as yourselves...

This satdy got training day yet again, it seems like theres something every week now, lifes so busy at the moment but i cant really complain. Work has been coming every week which im thankful for, i just pray il have the strength to do all these things that need doing and that i wont burnout.

So off to read an exciting book which mysteriously found its way to my bookshelf and i must say im hooked, cant get enough of the stuff!!

Happenings...

Hmm thought i'd make an entry cos i have that sudden urge to type away whatever is on my mind...

Recently had Cru leaders reunion... it was great to catch up with the gang again, even if not all turned up. Enjoyed a meal of pizza and as usual the left over junk food from camp. Hmm having said that tho there is still a whole more to get through.... thats how much junk food there was!!

So how did we spend the nite?? Hmm where do i start, played a bizarre game of Donkey Kongo, il admit its not really my thing, and it doesnt help having poor hand-eye coordination :P At least some of us were smarter than others and opted for the table tennis match!!

They say card games are relatively harmless but after that nite im beginning to think somewhat differently... Uno the game EVERYONE pronounces wrong was played tho this whole deal with intercepting is beyond me, either that or my heart wasnt into that nite. Then came snap. Ok u would think snap is a very harmless game but alas my hand was bruised beyond recognition!! It stayed tender for a day or more. Remind me never to play the game with guys who get a kick out of inflicting pain on others!

Hmm so not a lot was done really just spent the majority of time lounging around chatting and basically being silly!!

Since then not much has been happening, schools have rung me and i worked. Its all been good, been to a new school so thats another to add to my list. I guess i can say ive been blessed by all this work. It isnt easy beign a casual at times. THere are days when u think when will i ever work again?? And then there are moments when u feel like u need a break. In some ways it seems like there is so much tension, you have to drag ureself up every morning even when ure not working waiting for that call. The call that more often than not never comes through so u think well ok what shall i do with my day now. Basically its almost as if u put your life on hold until the clock strikes ten and then youre free until the next morning then it begins all over again.
One thing i do know for sure is i cant see myself doing this type of work for the rest of my life, the casual i mean, i pray that a full time offer will present itself in due time!

I had a pretty good week catching up with a friend whom i havent heard from in a while. She'd been traipsing all over the uk walking on grounds her ancestors would have treaded. It is a trip i can only dream of. Though im not sure im ready to brave the colder climate!!

Tomorrow is bowling!! Woohoo!! Dont think il do much good but hey its a game!!

Hmm so much happening this month, birthdays, parties, socials, reunions, training days and a wedding to top it all off!! Aahh hopefully next month will be somewhat quieter.

Well done my bit, more next time!
