So how to describe normal? Well to me being out of the home alot is going back to the normal i had at uni, so i guess it's still normal now right? :)
Well on monday it was mel and me hang out day :) We were on a mission today and it was to help clean brisbane. And you know what they had on the news was to like wear long slevved shirt and pants. so i went to find shirt that wasn't a good going out one, and ended up looking like a blanket, as the only one i could find was one of dad's old shirts. Which i ended up taking off as it was just a tad bit warm. So me and mel's first stop was to get food :) Then off we went to go clean. we had no real idea of where to go, so we were heading to rocklea first, but then ended up going to jindalee to go help a school clean up, at first we went to the wrong school, but then we found the one and it looked as if everything was taken care of, lots of people there.
So next stop was Graceville, and there we found the place were u register for helping out, and they like send you out to places and me and mel got sent out to victoria ave. i think. Anyways our job was to get all the flood damaged stuff that was from the house now on the foot path to the dump. So there was a heap of lifting involved and alot of moving of personal bellongings. I don't think it was till now that the floods really sank in for me. It was so heart breaking to see how much stuff was destroyed by it. Clothes, books, fridges, files, memories all lost because of water and mud. And to think that we depend so much on water to live and yet it can also destory lives too both really and metaphorically speaking. Kinda scary...
And boy the water did get high, some places we went passed the water would have been way over our heads . Also as we worked away, the smell IT STUNK soooo bad, there's not a word smelly enough to describe it. All that i can say about it is that when the wind carried over the smell of chlorine, it smelt like heaven comped to stinky flood smell. Will never forget it.
Bout 3hours later the job was just about done and so me and mel went off to go get ready for tonight as we were going to go bowling, with a few more mates. So excited Bowling, haven't done that in a while. Got cleaned up and ready at mel's along with jess who was with us.Also i got a bit of my hair crimped by mel :P.
Then when sam, tam and bredan came we set off to the logan hyp to go BOWLING. That was until they told us that there were no free lanes and sent us packing :/. But never mind lets go to the one near Garden city. And again full :/. IT'S A MONDAY NIGHT WHYYYYY? So we didn't go bowling :(
But then we had dinner at a place called the beach house. Me and sam the two younger ones played snap with the costers :P hahaha cause thats how we roll, And there was an xmas party there for some reason, and it seemed like quite the party, like you couldn't hear yourself think from all the screaming, and they were inside and upstairs :P. Then afterwards we had COLD ROCK there ice cream is AMAZING i had's banana ice cream with skittles. Yeah i know weird :P.t'was good though ^_^.
So tuesday came along next and it was to the hyperdome with jonny :) Got pleasently surprised when he came pick me up cause i has presents for me from him :). Got 3 awesome books and a volleyball. I like surprise when they r nice ones :). Then we set off and when we got there we missed the movie, well just the adds but they didn't let us in so we got tickets to go c Guliver's travels in 3-D. Now lunch, went to maccas but they were running out of food so KFC and woo cheap burgers 2 zingers for $7.50. Had to nom it down quickly as movie was starting, got in just as the wooooo adds started -.-. But then came movie and it was really good, should all go see it :) So many good actors in it and woo it had catherine tate in it. :) and i swear there was a doctor who reference in there. Then afterwards we did a little shopping, i gots present for tomorow for matt :)Also ran into two of my friends in the dome. Again another great day!!!
Make way for wednesday now and was really excited bout this one. I was going to c a few of the uni crew who i haven't seem since end of year 1 uni. which is like AGES ago now. So off to the city i go, haven't been in the CBD for a while either. And when i got there is seemed like normal. Can't imagine the place with no people in it, like it did have last week. Then off to the pancake manor i go, was a little early. i get like that. :P
Then there was jason so went in and got a table waitin for the rest to come, and eventually there was 9 of us. So great to spend the afternoon with them stuffing ourselves with AMAZING pancakes. Then we had an asian photoshoot at area 58, New experience and i couldn't breathe much from all the laughing. :P and the squeezing 9 people into a photo booth :P.
Next stop was Fat louies, and i gots a drinkie from jacki! :) THANKS! Also played 2 games of pool and the one-on-one game i had with jason, i actually won!!! WOOHOO! also saw brit for the first time in ages!! :) and russ too. Then off to chandler and i had no idea where i was going so i was just folowing instructions. Missed the bus cause as i got there it took off. so waited for next then got droped off at carindale shopping centre. And next bus to get was the 250, finally found the stop for it, and there was two of them one to the city and one to somewhere pierey, gots confused didn't know which one to get. So i asked the 250 that was going to the city and he just shut the door in my face before i could ask. RUDE!!! waited 20mins and then the other one came and whew it was the one! :)
Again had no idea where i was going and then when it came to my stop i was dropped off in the middle of long green grass in the dark all by myself and no body was answering the phone and was getting a litlle worried cause i was lost and in the dark and a thunderstrom was not far away. Felt as if i was going to get attacked or something, but then saved by jonny :) Got to the party safely and was blowing up balloons :) Was great to some of the student life guys/gals there :) even though there was only a small group of us. And then came the bithday man. The surprise was great!!!!! And the party great also, lots of yummy food and CAKE! :). swear i was going to have diabetes after today. :P
Coming home was the fun part, cause we didn't really know how to, managed to find us in the refidex just in time so we could b not lost anymore :) And when we eventually got to my street had so much fog over it, it really is an evil street, especially the haunted house, which actually has people living in it. don't know why they would want to, it's like a failing apart rusty old shed. :s. Serioulsy that place is CREEEPPY! :S every time i walk pass their a bit of soul gets destroyed.
Thursday the eventfulness ceases for a little while, just had fun with the sis playing xtreme volleyball, it's the kind on wet cement and no net :P, almost died from sliding like a penguin across the cement, was very slippery :P
And now today really quite. :) always good to have some downtime :)
