warning!! bandwidth at critical levels
i havent been able to blog cos we are dangerously close to our bandwidth cap. so i had to wait till the new month started (the post is backdated)

what did ian do this weekend?
not much really.. everything kinda fell thru this weekend.. and it was looking to be really jam packed. it was a result of bad organisation, as well as some pike-age and laziness from me =p

saturday had heaps lined up . but it ended up a bust. stopped by the anime marathon to say hello.. but every1 was sorta too caught up to talk all that much. next headed to centennial park for some lightbulb action with tenny/amy and minh/thao.. we rode bikes.. and ate ice-cream.. and watched the world go by.. it was all very pleasant =) i was sposed to go to a bday party at Pyrmont point park.. but frankly i couldnt be bothered walking that far.. i stopped at the marathon again.. but then ended up going home...

at one point i talked to nins about how i have nothing to do on NYE!! .. *sigh* .. and last year i had 4 parties to go to! oh how the world can change in 12 short months. oh well.. sitting at home by myself watching fireworks on the tv is kinda cool.. =p

when i got home, a whole bunch of my brother's frens were over, to watch the Lakers-Spurs game. hung out for a while playing PS2 games and talking about basketball =) it was kinda cool to hang out with a bunch of guys.. even if theyre little kids =p

sunday! .. nothing again.. i was meant to play tennis with tenny.. but i slept in. just got up in time to yum cha. which was at Marigold with a too many ppl to list here, but next o where we sat there was a North Sydney Girls 5 year High School reunion on... and i spotted Linda and Cecil there.. (i was sposed to go rock climbing with Cecil that afternoon, but she piked.. hrm.. =p) kind of a strange coincidence .

in other news: although i dont listen to pop really, i found out that Stacey Orrico is apparently a christian singer.. so i checked out lyrics for her songs.. and i like the chorus for the song "More to Life" ::

"There's gotta be more to life
Then chasing 'round every temporary high
to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm trippin up
thinkin' there must be more to life
well it's life but im sure
there's gotta be more"

kinda abstractly christian.. but its a good message still.. worldy stuff sucks so much, its just all so overwhleming though.
