ok lets look back since i last blogged properly
holidays from what i can remember were:
and yeah thats all i can think of at the moment
stump was great :D. the theme of stump must of been dust. first prize has to go to sounds like chicken. that was an A+ performance. when breathing the dust to air ratio was just amazing, you had to be there. saw nates first steps in becoming a minor christian celebrity :P. the music was ace. saw scat :D, playjerise, antisceptic, marcus bandcroft, sounds like chicken, the fifth nation, and some other ones but i cant remember their names. Scat was awesome, have to go see them live. drummer comes out with his snare, "youre a flaming idiot, get back on the kit."
the talks were :) and :D. the gathering was :D, while elected ones were :). right now im glad that was given a note book and pens to take notes on most of the talks. i think one of the best talks was by michael frost. the main thing that sticks out in the bible study was he tells us that we need to be reckless in our faith. where he goes on to question if our church was to be taken away from the neighbourhood, would there be grieving over the loss?
umm the late night jazz jam was awesome, i reckon you all would of loved it. i sure did make a fool of myself, but i got to finish but the 12 hours :D.
since then ive had school :P
ok lets elaborate on that. school wasnt to bad, there were those moments where you wonder why youre doing the subjects that youve chosen. well really just one subject :P. chem eww. just wasnt interesting.
i went on the vinnies night patrol twice. first time was heaps more fun then the second, but it was still good. had a better group the first time. we went out for steak before we went out :P.
hehe i was talking to one of the ladies, pat. she and this other lady just really hate each other. well pat was telling me about how a few days before she saw the other lady trying to pick up five brothers out side of cube. i dont know what kind of "brothers" they were, but it sure is funny. head heaps of other funny stories about them as well.
went to lucas box social. twas fun. haha man alex + bottles soo does not work. i fact alex + bottles + shaun really doesnt to work.
saw borat. went to far, and was to long.
saw the prestige. that was a great movie :D. the ending tied everything together.
mum wasnt to please with me walking home from webbys, o well.
each thing that ive posted about has seemed to of gotten shorter. :S
umm, ive just realized that ive got quite a bit of work to do before i leave for this ecumenical service next year. really should start that.
need to find:
- images of 20th Century figures who have been icons of the compassionate life from various Christian denominations (not necessarily the best known and some quotes that go beneath their image)
- work with matt on creating some poster for people to sign there name on
- and making cookies :P, but i'll leave them to the last minute
saw the korean show tonight. highlight was the swaying dresses :D. the show wasn’t to bad, bar two of the acts. the fan dance looks awesome, very pretty, with there fans and dresses. drum "dance" was ace as well. looked like heaps of fun. i would suck at it though. i cant keep time. the third dance, no idea what it was called but i'll call it the dance of the swaying dress :D. with that kind of name you cant go wrong :P. the monk dance was ... boring. “sword” dance for some reason reminded me of the japanese soran bushi dance. couldnt get in to the opera cause it was in korean. so it got boring. im sure it would of been funny if i could understand. the final dance was cool :D. like ling i wanna get one of those hats with streamers on the end :D.
the hats are called sangmo
had my presentation evening. it was not to bad. surprised by nicoline's composing ability. received a champanate medal and a marist mates bronze award as well. i found out that i could of got a silver award if i filled in all the sheets.
my results, i can live with them. though im cut i stuffed up my maths and physics exam. o well like i said i can live with the mark i got.
got chosen as house senior. next year will be interesting.
on the night hayden and lee's speech i think summed up the year. strange feeling when hayden mentioned daffy. i think for most of us we place the event out of our mines to cope. to see hayden up there as well showing his emotions amplified everything he said.
im going to dedicate this post to dot. ... happy birthday :D ... :. sorry i forgot. will think of something for you.
well time for bed,
ja bye bye
