Youth Alive!

Hm.

WE had lifegroup of Friday at Kim's house and iced chocolate cake to celebrate Steph's birthday! I was tired to the point that I became excessively energetic and jumped around the house. Perhaps it was the sugar. Heh. But yeah, charcoal chicken and pizza for dinner with Mish. OH and we kind of made watched Kim make macarons. It takes a whole lotta skill. OH and the best bit! We made fondant animals! They were adorable! I made a pig. Kim made a panda and an octopus. Mish made the most perfect cow and Steph made CHICKENS. Oh and I met Holly the vegan who's cool but thought I was in Uni. D: D: I don't look that old, do I? DDDD:

And then Saturday! Took the bus with Junyi to the city for Youth Alive. It was superduper fun. We wandered around the Melbourne Convention Centre looking for food at first. Buut we realized we were too poor to afford anything. So sandwich for dinner it was.. Josh was like 'Dude. I can eat like 2 loaves of bread in a day.' And I was like, 'Dude, this is temporary to keep me from starving. I'll get more food later.' Okay. Not exactly in those words, but meh. OH and omgsh they gave out free red bull! Eugena had 4. O.O I had one and I was already feeling the effects. Well, not really.. But Phil said I was talking super fast and Tiana said I looked high. :S Idk. I'd describe the feeling as restlessness and an urge to head bob to any music within the area.

Youth Alive was like a concert. We got moshpit tickets! Omgsh I just loved it, getting lost in the music, being completely carefree in that moment when you're jumping and dancing. No one's watching and there's this worry-free exhilaration. Then a band called Evermore? came up and I just kept watching the drummer because he had this intense expression and was so enthusiastic about what he was doing. Oh and the guys kept pushing each other around. And a couple of them jumped on Ben's shoulders. LOL. It was rather entertaining. Except when the stepped on your feet. By accident. Okay. I didn't mind thaat much. But yeah, it was great because they drained you of all your energy, then got to the serious part with worship and a message. Funny because it was about free-falling and stepping out in faith for God to be able to do something in your life.It was dark and it felt good to praise God without feeling self-conscious. Although I really ought to do be able to do that without the whole atmosphere. I gotta learn to stop caring what people think and just BE MYSELF. Although that's still a little hard seeing as I still don't know what myself is...

Anywho, realized I didn't have a ride home because my parent's were in the City eating dinner with Junyi's parents. LOL. So Mish took us to McDonald's where I attempted (and failed) to chuck a McBite into my mouth. I was starving by then. Omnomnom fooood.

I see why people get addicted to caffeine, especially when it's concentrated in this singe can of sugary sweet liquid. It makes you act without thinking as much. Good for me because I think too much? Perhaps.

Wonder what getting drunk feels like... Teehee.
