Life summary

Wow it's been ages.

Brief updates.
  1. Young Adults' Camp
    Let the teasing begin. A competition open to all non-females. Thanks Kendrick. I'm oh-so grateful for your so-called 'help'. Got an image for Sam: Him being ice-bucket-ed with fresh, cold water. A shock at first but refreshing and cleansing. He'd adjust to the cold of the water so the temperature of the air would become relatively warmer? Saturday night was people getting "moosed" (loosed) and collapsing on the ground after the pastor touched them lightly on the head. Tears, laughter, smiles, breakdowns. It was quite a sight.
     
  2. Biomedicine Ball
    Table members (for future reference), Becky, 2 dudes from Monash, Tim, Edmund, Kendrick, Martyn, Ellie, Sam, Dong, Jeffery and me. Running in the rain from the tram stop to the venue. A 3-course meal with a bread roll with butter as the entrée and an amazingamazing chocolate tart dessert. Minor issues with the lobby guy at the apartment because we got caught having 8 people go up when a room is only supposed to have 4. Whoops. Sam saved us with his quick thinking.
  3. Vicky's birthday dinner at Terra Rossa
    Despite the rather pricey but average food, catching up with old friends never gets old. Much enjoyment listening to Isabel's love life. :P
  4. The Breakfast Club
    Once at Dr Dax (best banana bread, french toast, carrot cake), again at Le Miel et La Lune with Jeffery (french toast with bacon and butterscotch banana, poached eggs on toast), study day at Deakin and lunch at Taste Dumpling where we planned our future trip to Europe. Ah such talk of plans that are unlikely to come into fruition. But hey, the possibility in itself is beautiful. Oh we also had Wii night at Janelle's. Made banana & coconut milk bread pudding, watched 21 Jump Street. Got tipsy from skulling ONE cup of champagne. Went from 'I'll take anyone' to 'I'm super picky' as I blabbed whatever came to mind as Kendrick drove me home.
  5. Chill out sessions with the Crew
    Glenny dinners before lifegroup, midnight maccas/pancake parlour/ice-cream runs, movie nights at Mel's, $5 pizza at the park behind Martyn's house, half-studying with Dong at Ben's, 10/10 conversations in Chai's car.
  6. The Fried Crew
    Occasionally crashing Glee classes. They remind me so much of choir. Drinking night at Ben Seet's, getting beaten by Kendrick in HSM singstar's "When there was me and you". Watching 'Gone Girl'. Lunch at TGIF instead of High Tea (damn). Kendrick's birrthday dinner at Koeda's at the Glen.
  7. Work
    Getting used to a heap of criticism and condescension from David the Baker. But it's good actually. I'm learning heaps (i.e. how to pay attention to detail, business ethics, time is money, how to prioritise, patience). Plus Karyea told me the back story of what happened when the new owners bought over the business and supposedly mucked everything up. So I can sympathise with why he's so grumpy and bitter so much the time. And his sarcasm is funny (unless I'm already in a bad mood). And I'm glad I get to practice my Chinese. 
And that's all for now, folks.
