What a Weekend
Well, this weekend has been quite busy, having a party, worked, slept and moved rooms.
As usual, I left the purchase of my costume for Lauren's party to the last minute, using the double free on friday afternoon to get it. Started off at an op-shop on Belair road, and found a genuine 1961 army jumper. The woman said that it had been brought in that very day, and she had just finished sewing up the moth holes. It was a bit small, but hey, for $3, you cant go too wrong. Next, edi and I headed down to the army disposals on unley road. Was very small, and featured more 1960s furniture than army merchandise. Getting desperate, I headed up and down unley road looking for somewhere to go, checking out all the op-shops and even 2nd hand furniture stores i could find. Feeling quite defeated, we jumped back in the car, and headed back to school.
As I say, Unley road is a piece of shit, and i hate it a lot. Crossing it in peak hour is no mean feat, (speeling :S) so, getting impatient, I took a left turn instead. After taking this left, I headed further down unley road, to come across another army disposal shop. Fate I tell you, fate. I was meant to come across that shipe. Here, I bought another genuince piece, a US Marine Corps hat, and some dog tags. I think i pulled it off in the end, looked a bit army-like, plus....it was a last minute effort.
So Laurens actual party you ask? Well, luckily i organised a one-way share with the Wilsons, so Anne took us down, and Sally picked us up. Laurens was wicked. I would have to say one of the best ever. Everyone was in the mood, and I think i drunk just enough to have the right amount of fun. I even unleashed my dancing talents upon the world. Yeh, you'd better watch out John Travolta. I was even told by Rachel, that it was obvious why I didn't dance that often. Well, in my opinion, none of us are any good, bar Edi and Muskee. (out of guys) Nevertheless, this resulted in my ego taking quite a beating, and it took a while for me to start dancing again.
My philosophy is that now I've started low, I can't disappoint, and I might even improve.
So yeh, soccer was cancelled on saturday, which gave me a chance to sleep in. Fixed my car stereo and headed down to footy as i was the runner. Another good game i reckon. Camels played pretty well, shown as Pembroke were force to call Jace Bode at half time. This resulted in a bit of a controversy. Colesy was dead-set that they couldnt do this, so i was running back and forht, telling the umpires they were wrong. Long story short, I was kicked off the ground for the rest of the game.
Sunday - finally after 4 months of constant nagging, Mark moved out of his room, and into the bigger granny-flat style room left vacant by Luke. This gave me my second room, which I have made into my private study. Its half empty at the moment, so I want to get a small two-seater couch. Would be good.
My moving of rooms was interrupted to go and see "What the bleep to we know?" with Benny. Was a fantastic movie. It was about quantum physics, and how its possible implications could effect our everyday lives. Was very interesting, went into things like how one persons consciousness could affect that of others around them, and the material world. It also went into how thoughts can change the structure of water, and therefore, how thoughts can change ourselves physically and chemically. It also went into the way our cell receptors can be effected by the constant feeling of one emotion. So, we can live longer and healthier lives by either not feeling any emotion, or by having a balanced emotional life.
Weekend finished with monday, homework, work (blockbuster) and now blog, followed shortly by more homework.
Will see you all tomorrow, tomah
