The weekend
Note that I am trying to post a little bit less than I have been.
The exam on Friday morning went well - sorry Pat, I can't translate my study notes into English because that was English :-s
Then deposited money for schoolies and went to the chap, where I ate a lot of chocolate, sight-read a lot of older songs (Mathieu is a lot better at sight reading than I am), decided to go shopping, decided not to, then later on decided to and went.
Went to Cold Rock. Then went to Suncorp Piazza with gang. Rolled a coin down a grate (we were having this coin-rolling competition) and the boys tore up a palm frond and actually managed to fish it out! Well done, guys.
Almost went for a swim at Breaka beach :-s Would have pushed Trev in, but remembered he is a lot stronger and bigger than me. (Hey, it's not the size of the person in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the person, right? Well, I played it safe anyway ;-)
Pete had a bright idea - Mt Coot-tha! So after a scenic detour (and pretending Lisa and I were in the Amazing Race, using our American accents) we arrived there. And then time to go home.
Last night - Ali's farewell dinner at Pancake Manor! And it was good :-) She was suprised. Thanks everyone who turned up :-)
Church this morning. Church meeting this afternoon. I was the microphone girl (i.e. run around and give the microphone to whoever is speaking). AND I actually SUGGESTED something at this meeting!!!! :-0
*people under 30 do not usually speak in our church meetings - it's not a rule, it's just that not many under 30 come! and when we do, we quietly play noughts and crosses. Well, I think those days are over - I may have graduated to productive membership!*
Went to pick my brother up from a party. Met a little kid there. Asked him how old he was.
"Five," he said.
"How old do you think I am?"
He frowned, looked me up and down, and then pulled out his best estimate. "Eight?"
I grinned. "No, I'm 19." (Actually, today I am 19 and 3/4.)
He smiled. "I think I like you."
"I think I like you too!"
Little kids are so wonderful :-)
