8/10/2010

The last week of the holidays was pretty uneventful. I just hung around with people and finished a little uni work. Friday was a pretty chill night. Had a few drinks with people in Teds and just hung out. They were all ready to go to bed around 11, but my friend Matt and I wanted to do something, so I randomly commented (haha you know me) that I would normally go to the beach on a night like this... His eyes lit up and he said lets go!, and everyone else wasn’t so keen on the idea. So we went by ourselves. Drove to Nobby’s Beach and walked downthe beach, played with the waves like little kids all the way to the breakwater. We walked the breakwater and sat on the rocks and watched the waves crash over them. We sat there for quite some time just gazing a the ocean, waves, the city behind us. We changed rocks to the fishy-smelling side, but the rock was more comfortable (as a rock can be! Lol). It started raining around 2 am but seemed to only be over our heads. We stuck our hands out and felt no rain there. We got up and moved to the light tower. He and I were both skinny enough to squeeze through the ladder and climb up to the top! LOL! It was cold as so we climbed down after a short time. Climbed into the cool fort-like area just below. It was so much warmer! Around 3-3:30 the choice between food and staying became a prominent question. Food won eventually! It started raining halfway down the beach back to the car and then started pouring! We had a good run in the rain!
Sat’day/Sunday
Slept in a bit, lol. Tonight we went to MJ Finnegans. It was pretty cool, no one was overly drunk and we all had a good time. Holly’s Birthday was the next day so this was a celebration for her. Earlier in the day Holly, our Norwegian friend Geir, and I made a Liisa-friendly German Chocolate cake. We got back from the club around 2 and a few of us decided to hang out in Matt’s room with the Xbox. Lol. We had a good time and a good cuddle puddle too! This lasted until again our stomachs decided our next plan of action. So we went back to my house and I cooked everyone brekkie! It was delish! Alex, Holly, and I walked to the playground past the train station after brekkie. We played on the merry-go-round, fell off the merry-go-round and sat and watched the morning evolve over the lake. We walked back and I watched a movie while Holly slept through it. After the movie Nattie and I went shopping! Then had Chinese with Holly and some of her housemates for Holly’s birthday. The rest of the day tried to stay awake long enough to go to bed without waking up at 3 am and not being able to sleep again.
