beaches/footy/work


G'DAY!!!

ummm so it's been awhile since I last updated me blog... that is due to a combination of factors including laziness, lack of internet access and TOO MUCH TIME SPENT BEING AWESOME... okay so the latter isn't entirely true... but I'd like to think so...

Anywho! Easter weekend here was amazing, as I was treated to some of the most beautiful scenery known to mankind.













Yes... I do include the view of my nostrils to be amongst the most magnificent scenery in the universe. Those are just a couple of the photos I took over the weekend, I have like 200 more so I'm probably gonna set up a flickr site at some point to put up the rest of the pics. OH and on my wonderful weekend on the beach I got a chance to eat SHARK... that was pretty cool... though I'm pretty sure a lot of other people who are reading this have also eaten shark.... next up KANGAROO!

On Easter Monday I went to an INSANE footy match between the Geelong Cats and the Hawthorn Hawks... now footy in Melbourne doesn't refer to the lame game where pansies like Christiano Ronaldo run around and flop on the field when they get nudged by an opposing player... (okay I take that back... I love soccer... WORLD CUP IN TWO MONTHS!!) no... the footy I am speaking of is Australian Rules Football, a combination of Basketball (Dribbling), American Football (tackling, punting), Rugby and Quidditch (ball through posts for different point values)... it's pretty much the best game ever... and Geelong, the side I was cheering for came back from being down 24 points at the half to winning the match 100-91 with 2 goals (12 pts) in the last 3 minutes!! It was crazyyy! (lsm) I don't have any pics of it right now because my camera is at my cousin's place, but I will post em as soon as I get those pics on my hard drive.

Anddd today was also my first day of work! wooo! basically all I do is pick CDs and DVDsoff shelves and get them ready to be shipped off to record stores (the Aussie equivalent of HMV would order from us)... it's pretty cool working in the warehouse and all the people I work with seem pretty rad. I will give more updates on that soon...

Other than that I've just been eating a TON... lots of delicious pie here which keeps me happy... GOOO PIE! and enjoying the city... I would have written an even longer post, but my eeepc is dwindling down to about 2% in battery life.... hopefully it accepts this post before dying out!

Love & Peace to all my loyal readers!
