uh.. yeh.. i should probly like write a blog post or something here..
:: friday
i was in fear of being a loser at home on a friday nite again.. but i forgot that i had ling's bday dinner thing on.. unfortuantely it was in parra.. *sigh*. i turned up at 7pm (about half an hour late) but i was about the 5th person there (out of about 20+) so i didnt feel too bad. it was a rather strange group of people (mostly cos i didnt realyl know any of them) but i managed to find some people to talk to about snowboarding and japan n stuff =) hehe. i later realised that we'd jsut had a bday dinenr without having a bday cake... hrmm..
we ended up being at the restaurant for more than 5 hours.. which is maybe the lognest dinner ive ever been to. we jsut never seemed to want to leave (well i suspect thats what the restaurant ppl were thinking). afterwards we were trying to teach lingy to skate cos hoa apparently bought her a skateboard for her bday. she was doing ok for a first timer (at least she didnt break an ankle =p). i did the two biggest ollies ive ever done that nite.. and i thought i totally had it down (but sadly later attempts disproved that theory)
needless to say i got home ludicrously late...
:: saturday
i woke up like in the middle of the day and watch the AFL grand final.. it was good to see those cheating, whinging Brisbane Lions finally not get away with complaining their way to the championship. theyre so crap.. what happens is Jonathan Brown and Martin Pike go around anally raping people then looking at the ref like "what? i barely touched him" then someone blows some air a bit too hard onto Akermanis' pinky finger and then he falls over clutching his eyes as if he has been harpooned by whale hunter... and then chases the ref around for the rest of the game crying like a baby.
anyhoos.. they lost.. so i feel better =p .. later that day... i went out to go to this sushi making thing at annie's sister's house in five dock. my decision to skate there turned out to be not so great.. i had the worst stack ive had since i started skating. i hit this big crack in the sidewalk and went flying head over heels onto the road. i managed to leave a fair bit of skin off my elbow on the tarmac... ouch.. it didnt really hurt that much.. i was just sorta jsut bleeding everywhere.. it wasnt pleasant. i arrived at annie's and sorta jsut bled some more .. cos her sister had only just moved in she didnt really have any medical supplies.. *sigh*
.. the sushi making was pretty fun i spose... we were kinda lacking tables n stuff so we all sat on the floor at watch the ARL on tv. well mostly jsut me and Minh watched.. the others had no idea what was going on =p we jsut sat around and sang karaoke for a few hours before deciding to go home .. i managed to get a ride home fromt he lovely kallie =)
still got home stupidly late though =p
:: sunday
i woke up feeling like not really doing anything.. so i jsut sat around and ate some banana muffins that my mother had freshly baked =) but i thought id better get off my fat ass and do something.. so i went to play tennis with some peeps. it was at haberfield.. and i went ok. if u havent heard im totally crap at tennis.. the only thing im worse at is soccer =p but on this day i was playng ok. i still have no back hand.. and i hit the ball off the frame way too often.. but i hit enough good shots that i didnt feel like i was horribly worse than the other guys. unlike soccer, i feel like i could eventually be pretty good at tennis, i really need to work on judging the ball in the air (like where its going to go) and then moving my feet to get into position to hit the ball. ive got pretty good court coverage.. cos im pretty fast. itd help if i wore tennis shoes instead of skating shoes =p
