Bosco's copy blog so put me off updating for a bit. It hasn't even been a week since I last blogged, but it's felt like ages for some reason.
Perhaps it's because I've had such an eventful easter break. Just as well, cos work starts again tomorrow. I had been work free for five entire days and for 4 of the five days, I had someone to meet with and a busy agenda to follow. Pity I don't have any photos to post up. My camera is still M.I.A, and I'm starting to feel a bit concerned...
My break started on Thursday. After a relaxing day at uni, my mad rush back to the office began. Met the ruse entourage in the lobby of the office, changed and headed off to Pavilion where we indulged in talk (alot of "omgg haven't seen you in AGES") and also a couple glasses of Purple Hazes, the drink of the day. Thus began a long night of drinking, watching people drink and watching people throw up. Bliss.
Our entourage trekked to King Street Wharf and at the docks, we decided to consume some Cruisers that Rohan and Buzz Lightyear bought. Free drink! The night darkened, and lots of girls in bunny costumes started arriving. Got lost amidst the people for a little while and bumped into a couple of childhood friends, and boarded the boat. It was alot smaller than I imagined- MV Bella Vista. Yes.
The boat started, and left a couple of people on dock as it had reached its "maximum capacity". Some people hit the bar almost immediately because they had nothing else better to do (or, they were not drunk enough to have the guts to) while others just loitered around waiting for someone we knew to bump into us. The biggest event for a few of us DID end up happening and gave us much food for thought for the night + next couple of days.
Watched people get drunk, and a bunch of second years stagger around like they were blind... people puking in the bathrooms and overboard. It was not a pretty sight. The night ended and I got home at half past two ish. The petrol station is a creepy place at night. It reminded me of slasher scenes in horror movies. D: I do not think I'll be doing anything like for quite a while.
A couple of hours after I went to bed- I woke up and got ready to leave the house to go to the Easter Show with the usual crew- Winnie, Lis, Sam and Cat. Got there and discovered Shiva, Rex and Tim there- what a pleasant surprise! Visited animals, the Woolworths Dome, watched fashion parades (models were girls with big tummies from Armidale- not meaning to be really judgemental, but could they find someone who actually fit the clothes to model them ;D), and took lots of photos.
Met up with M- took her around for a bit, before meeting up with the crew again to watch some rodeo, cars and motorbikes stir up the dirt. Then came ROBOSAURUS which was SO ENTERTAINING for like 2 minutes. That freaking show lasted SO long and was SO repetitious it made me feel glad I bought a magazine showbag which came with 3 thick stacks of interesting gossip and pictures. Fireworks was lol. We sat up near the back because there were close to no seats left (actually, the attendants at the bottom of the staircases wouldn't even let us up- bitches) and we didn't see most of the tall fireworks. Bahaha. But I think everyone had a good time putting on their sunglasses and taking retarded photos. To avoid embarrassment, I will not post any up :)
So I went home on Friday a happy chappy with M on the shuttle bus (so convenient!)
I opted for a nice movie marathon on Saturday to compensate for the lack of rest accumulated over the past two days. We watched a wide variety of Gerard Butler movies plus the Hangover (seriously- what the hell?) and Sleeping with the Enemy. Geez. I watched this movie when I was REALLY little and I can't belive I remember almost everything. Scared the crap outta me back then and still does. Gotta love Julia Roberts :) Had a chat with some people crashing at Rohan's in the middle of the night and wasted some of my sleeping time (big mistake- luckily I was reminded it was daylight saving so.. waahhoo!)
On Sunday, Cheryl and I finally caught up and watched Alice in Wonderland in IMAX. I remember going spastic when I heard the movie was being made by Tim Burton sometime last year. It was NOT disappointing at all- and watching it in 3D for the beautiful price of $10- seriously, what a bargain. Shopped around and bought more typo boxes (hehe- btw MAWSON, I have yours- gimme a shout when you want them back). We had lunch at Poporo. The last time I went there was with K, but since then they've changed the menu so dramatically. :(
Today was the grand trip to MIZUYA - newish restaurant/karaoke bar which opened on George Street. We had lunch there while singing to Lady Gaga. 8) Her songs are so darn catchy. I can't say I'm a fan of her, but I like her songs enough to buy a CD. Her album would be worth buying too, since almost every song has hit the top charts. Wow. (BTW- Justin Bieber. He's just a kid! When he gets older he might be out of a job)
Okay. post got cut short. D's taking over my comp :(
Hope you guys have a nice break/last week at uni !
