Australia Day Long Weekend

Happy Australia day all!

Friday was great! Headed out to whoop-whoop for a BBQ bonanza, to (kick ass on) SingStar and Nintendo Guitar with random and not so random good company! Although ditching the traditional BBQ flesh feast, I did eat so many lamingtons I started burping them... gross...

In the evening I headed to local BBQ bonanza with the old high school crew. It was FANTASTIC to see everyone together again after so long away in various parts of the country and world. We caught up on each other's worlds, talked about future plans and laughed at random crap before playing some bizarre Japanese game that had people looking very strange doing weird activities...

Saturday was one of the high school crew's birthday party. Part way through the evening (which was going very well) tension between university friends and the old crew came to a head and proved awkward and slightly offensive to most... It actually turned out to be a pretty funny turn of events that resulted in the old crew feeling more united in our animosity towards the 'newbies'... good times. It has been so long since we have all been able to hang out together so much!

Tomorrow night, as with most Monday nights there is a little touch of the Woodford Folk Festival happening at The Shire in West End (off Russel Street). It is a really cruisey out door open mic session that everyone should come and enjoy, contribute to or dance with.

Big love.

A lamington (like a neenish tart and a pavolva) is an Australian dessert.

A lamington is a square of sponge cake (light and fluffy, sugary but plain cake) that has been coated in chocolate syrup and then encassed in coconut shavings.

I LOVE LAMINGTONS!

You will eat many when you are here. I will also make you some when I come back to Cali.
