Best be fully awake if planning a trip for tomrrow


Problems start when you're not awake and you book tickets while been nagged at constantly by your mum, you find out tix cost $550 one way for just three people, you book it for 7am in the morning and it's already 12am and you've only had 1hour sleep in two days. You also book a flight home thinking about your boyfriend's birthday, confirm tickets for that night and realised you were suppose to go home the night before. therefore. stuck in Melbourne for another night. On the night you were suppose to go home, you dont tell your host family you were suppose to be at Avalon Airport and not Melbourne airport, so you miss your flight because Avalon is an $80 taxi trip and an hour away, the plane leaves in 30mins, therefore. stuck in Melbourne another night. It's late, Next flight is at 6am in the morning and you need to wake up at 4am to drive to Avalon in time. Your host family doesnt sleep until 12am, and you cant sleep until they can. It's cold, it's wet, it sucks. A one day trip to Melbourne turned into two nights of unpleasantness.

Trip to Melbourne two weeks ago...

In other news: I went to see Julius play drums today at his church today, after getting lost on the way there (I'm hopeless). I finally got to see what he has been going on about for so long. I expected something more..erm..I don't know, "believe in god, or be punished" sort of thing, but I experienced a fun, light hearted service. Everyone was laughing, friendly, natural, and there was rock music, heck yeah! I would totally go back any day, though I'm still a Buddhist and I dont really want to be "saved" as the group put it today when they were converted to Christianity. I'm still totally cool with what other's believe and I respect that and I know other respect me too. I had loads of fun, watching Julius play with the band, met his friends and leader and chowed down on some delish lamb curry. Ace.

In more news: I've got this bummer skin allergy every time I get in contact with raw shellfish, I can eat the stuff but I can't touch it. What the frick? Not cool at all, how am I suppose to work when I cant touch shellfish with my bare hands? It's embarrassing. The other night at work, I wore gloves just to cut a kilo of prawns and yet the water they were defrosting in, got into my gloves, and I spent the rest of the night with blotchy itchy red hands. Very unpleasant.

Must get back to my study/assignments, pulling yet another all-nighter, very unhealthy, but i'm very lazy, there is no other way that I will finish my assignments if I dont finish it in one go.
