Yes please!
Just booked accommodation in Canberra for the floriade festival later on this year. I am pumped.
Unfortunately before I booked I forgot to check when my exams will be. Should be ok. Fingers crossed.
Anyone heading to the can in sept/oct for the floriade?

Was talking to someone about going white water rafting today.
And snowboarding.
And bungee jumping.
And rolling around in those crazhee plastic balls.
If only I could pause my life, go to sleep and dream a SUPER long holiday dream where I get to do all these things, wake up, and go to work.
Lately I've been finding it hard to fall asleep and even harder to get out of bed. I lie awake in bed, it's dark. I blink, it's light.
I feel like I've been ripped off.
No rest... no dream? WHAT? NO FAIR!
Realised today, that we're more than halfway through the year. I looked back, and realised I have done a lot this past year.
Digressing completely, can I just say, that this union-leader-using-union-credit-card-for-escort-services news in the media is pissing me off. IT'S NOT NEW ANYMORE. If anything, it's OLDS, repetitive and bloody damn annoying. He is a fool, but I don't see how this is one of the first things reported daily. Is there nothing better happening in the world? I have so many questions.
Is Strausse-Kahn really a super powerful sexual predator, or is he just being targeted because he is wealthy and has a big name?
Why did 11 people die in a tragic housefire in QLD?
Will Bob Katter's thoughts on gay marriage change after his brother came out of the closet yesterday?
What can we do to stop earthquakes?
Kim Kardashian married a GIANT!
Why do I know more about Kim Kardashian's wedding than I do about the battle for Libya? I feel a bit ashamed at the moment. I will now educate myself on wikipedia.
So tired.
This post is all over the place. Exactly how I feel today. Shambles. Watching the news is draining.
A man lost his wife and his 5 kids in a fire yesterday.
Who am I to complain?
I am sore. So sore. Sore from:
1. Skiing
2. Falling on my ass after attempting jumps and skate ramps
3. Sitting in the car for > 10 hours.
This weekend was by far one of the best this year. So jam-packed, condensed and exhilarating!
A bunch of us from work took the weekend off to drive down south to Mt Selwyn (easyish) snowfields to ski/board. Its a tradition I think, this trip- because I remember it happening last year.
Highlights:
- flat tire scare. Driver had never had a flat tyre before, and we were all convinced his car had a flat because it was making weird sounds. We stopped at one of the rest stops (9.30pm on a Friday night) it was pitch black and we were using my itorch to look for punctures. The driver then applied the kicking test, and proceeded to gently tap the tyre with his shoe to check for air leaks. You don't check for punctures like that.
- 10 person hotpot dinner. So much squabbling. There was so much food that we ended up having hot pot for breakfast. Ahaha !
- goofing around in the "skate park" with the snow mounds and ramps. Zomg, epic fun. If you haven't tried it, you have no idea. After this trip, I feel as though I want to take up skateboarding.
- got told for the first time in my life "you're too good for my class, please join the next one up"
- sitting in a civic, racing an impreza up towards Canberra on our way back. Only then did I realise how much I like speed and revving (what the hell is happening to me?).
- racing down the mountain at incredible speeds, swerving to miss the little kids :D
- and of course the great company !
Lowlight was NO RECEPTION where we stayed, but I wouldn't have had time to use my phone that much anyway.
Work again, today, uni tomorrow. Joy D: homework awaits! Birthday season beginning! Hbd to you all :D
Stay safe, stay calm and go to the snow if you have time
We're going shopping tomorrow night for hot pot ingredients (everyone loves hotpot) and I need to get a pair of ski goggles. Wheeheehee!
6hr drive down though. Roaaad trip!
Until then, ill busy myself with acct'n homework :(
Maybe it's uni.
Maybe it's work.
I'm also thinking about holding off my hk trip at the end of this year (I keep changing my mind bcos people keep coming up with better ideas) so I can go to the US after K finishes her HSC.
Ugh time flies. Can't believe it's her turn already.
And after my graduation, I'm gonna hit up Europe.
And after that, I'll decide what I want for the rest of my life.
Digressing completely, I tried talking to a buff coworker last week about the zyzz and I got nothing but a blank expression for a response. They think I'm weird now D: I swear I saw it on smh though!!
