Schoolies, Toolies and so much more...

I'm going to post it in days, becuase I'm lazy.

Love to all.

Sunday: An early wake up was not too much of a hassle, but upon arriving at Reneés house it’s quite obvious that it is a hassle to everyone else, and their huge amounts of bags and extra belongings. After a very pleasant drive down to Sorrento with Sinea an hr family, there was a very delicious lunch, in the band pavilion/ rotunda/ gazebo. Finally getting to the house, we were greeted with a extremely agreeable abode, choosing our sleeping accommodations and settling in was our first task, next was the shopping.
The shopping trip was most eventful as not everyone was in agreement of what to buy, it was most hilarious and highly amusing, even more amusing is when Mel thought it was a brilliant idea to ‘borrow’ one of the trolleys from IGA and then proceed to swap it for a bigger one at Foodworks, and wheel it home, what a site!
Unpacked and ready to party, is exactly what we did! Well it was slowed by the old man who told us to turn down the music, at what 9 o’clock; hmm at least he didn’t bother us for the rest of the week. There were 9(?) girls there the first night
So that night was highly eventful, we peaked a bit early as there was a lot of drinking and a lot of singing and a lot of… silly behavior, and a large amount of swearing from grace, which I was most impressed with, and a bit of puking…. quite a bit. I won’t o into great detail, but some people just need to learn to hold their drink, I mean seriously, either that, or you know stop drinking when you feel sick. It was not a pleasant experience but an experience to look back on none the less, what I have learned. 1) Don’t get stupidly drunk and pass out on the bathroom floor then on the mattress affectionately know as Mel’s mattress. 2) I don’t really squirm at the sight of other people’s vomit, which to popular belief doesn’t always contain carrots.

Look what I found!

I feel so completely 'blah' at the moment as if my whole life consists of thinking to the future; deadlines, career options, travel dates, flight details, schoolies plans etc. It wasn't until I read something that pointed out to me yesterday that I suddenly realised that I haven't lived in the moment for so long and its about time I started again. Sure its nice to think ahead sometimes but if you do it too much, you miss what is going on right now and never actually enjoy anything.

For me thing has drastically halted, the pace has slowed and I have time on my hands, it's been a very long time since I looked at my hands and and found time.

As for worrying, have you noticed how a good 85% of things always end up working themselves out no matter how much you worried about them at the time? I usually remind myself of that when a problem arises - it really isn't worth it ... 'Que Sera Sera' and 'Life goes on' and all that.

Of course, knowing these things and actually putting them into practice are completely different things altogether. I'm definitely going to aim at trying though.

I awoke at about 9:00am , looked at the time and thought screw it I'm staying in bed. Then at 12 family started to raise themselves and move into the kitchen for breakfast, Bacon and eggs.. hmmmm heart attack food! We haven't had breakfast as a family for about 4 weeks, it was nice, loud, very loud and a little bit squishy even though our table is 8 feet long, i think we were trying to get near the toaster.

After I watched a little bit of YouTube Live which was interesting, and quite well pulled off. They boys bought this drink which is a beer, except all the aspects of the taste of beer has been taken out and it is flavoured, Raspberry, tasty. I went next door learnt to make earrings, then played ball with Milos, now my arm hurts and I think I have bruises on my tummy from the ball hitting there.

Tomorrow, if the weather is nice we are going to have a Bon fire to burn all our year 12 stuff, yes i know not very environmentally friendly, but we are only doing half!

Then it is schoolies on Sunday, hmm i really should pack I'll start tonight putting things it a box or something.
