When a Good Time Turns Around

Even though I am on my computer everyday I still find it much easier to only update the blog every few days. It also means that the less impressive photos go into a post with the nicer more thought out ones. Creates a better balance. All completely intentional and not at all to do with my increased laziness.

The Steve Irwin ride at Broadway has been replaced. *sad face* Never rode the old one and I have no intention of taking a whirl on this one. Find it slightly odd that they would replace a ride for kids with a character that most kids would not know. Wasn't Pink Panther a thief??? I am currently on the net but still too lazy to check that 'fact'.

Uni sucks. Period. Late night meandering around the campus. Library is conveniently located near the bar. So close that you can hear the uproarious good time mixed with awkward flirting.

The Netball team I filled in for last season won the grand final. I am now a full paying member and got a commemorative mug for being in the winning team. Alas, it was a tad windy and my mug was used a weight for the scoreboard and got a 'minor chip'. Note the bloody finger from when I thrust my hand in there to check on its condition.

The Silver Bullet has reached a momentous occasion! Clocked over 140 000Kms! Shoddily taken on my camera phone whilst at the lights. I have had this car for 7 years. It has helped me move to 9 houses. It may be on the way. It has a bag of coins in the right left wheel, sounds like a dishwasher, and a Duck living in the clutch. I will be sad when I have to say farewell...

Oh, happy 'birthday' - 19/11

My first Roller Derby bout. Sydney's Pistola Cholas took victory of Newcastle's Dockyard Dames. This was the last Sydney bout for the season and I wish I had seen more.

I am a big fan of the break when writing any sort of uni assignment, resets my thoughts and stops the rambles. It has to be some sort of productive break through. I made ANZAC biscuits. Little bit thick though and somewhat hard/crisp.

And that was the week that was!
