Grand Final Weekend

So on thursday i went down to melbourne with the symons, and we did so much. the list is:
Grand final parade
melbourne aquarium
walked everywhere
ate a lot
watched grand final
pompeii exhibit
and a bunch of other places

it was a great weekend, geelong won the grand final! it was so close, it was neck and neck and at points we thought that saint kilda had it, but at the last like 2 mins they pulled it off. and one. it was insanely stressful. but a lot of fun! whoo!!! and now i can go to the rotary meeting this week and gloat about how geelong won!

more about the weekend

So the symons have an apartment in the city which is amazing! its a great location on swatson street which is basically the main street in melbourne. u can walk anywhere from their place basically, its right next to a subway. and its like a really nice building. their apartment is all set really fancy, with their kitchen, dining area, living room. 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. and its really cool. i love it! i'm going back there tomorrow for a week, and it should be a lot of fun! their showers in the apartment are seriously the coolest showers in the world. in the one bathroom the water comes from like the celing. and its like a water fall feeling and its soo nice. and the other one is like this walk in shower. like there's glass and then on the other side is the shower and all. so basically you walk around the glass and into the shower. its hard to explain but its really really nice. alright so i have to let everyone know abuot my search for starbucks. so at first i was really disapointed since i couldnt find one. but in the end i found 3! it was great! and 2 of them are even on swatsons street! yay!!!! so i was very excited when i saw it, took a picture. and then went in and got one. alright. i might not be on for a while, so i'll let you all know how the week was when i get back.

Geelong Game!!!

so this past weekend i went to melbourne. which was loads of fun, and saw the geelong game! it was amazing. the stadium holds 100,000. and it was about 95,000 full. it was so much fun.t he game is just amazing, your at the edge of your seat the whole time. and even better Geelong won! big time! they just kept getting goal after goal. by the end of the game the collingwood fans were leaving, there was no hope! it was great!!! i got all dressed up, in a geelong hat, scarf,socks, jumper, i had clackers, we went all out, and i'll upload photos at a later time. but it was a great weekend!

Netball

So today was my first netball game which was loads of fun! Its sorta like basket ball, but u cant dribble at all, and when u get the ball you have to throw it to someone else. It's a lot of fun though. i was Wing Defense. and to many of you, if i said i was goal attack it'd all be the same thing to you. So basically what i did, was i was defending our net, and i was following Wing Attack around. but we won 20 to 11!!! so that was a lot of fun!

Earlier today, rotary was having a barbecue on the main street selling sausages on bread ( VERY Australian! its like what they have at barbies) but anyways. i got to get out of school, i walked down to the main street and helped serving food! it was fun, and then in the end i got free sausages from it! pretty good deal to me! :). I got back to school and there was about 40mins until we had an assembly which was kind of boring, but it beats having 100min classes all day. especially on a thursday!

is there really a need to always have a title?

Well no i dont think there's always a need, because this one i cant think of a title. its just life. just what all is going on, and how things are. so anyways. its a monday afternoon after school, and i have a load of homework to do, which i'll do probably after i finish this, but not keen on doing it. this weekend is the start of holidays! whoo! and i'm so pumped for the geelong game! you have no idea! it should be so much fun! and then spending a week in melbourne. i'm determine to find a starbucks that hasnt closed in melbourne!!! and my list of things to do in melbourne contains a lot of shopping. haha. but shoppings good fun! so its worth it, and then there's a bunch of other touristy places like the melbourne zoo, aquarium, eurka skybox thing, and other places. so i should have a lot of photos from that. hopefully i'll finally break 1000 photos. i'm so close to it, but haven't. i dont take nearly enough photos, but there hasnt been all that much to take of, there will be at later times. yup so basically nothing new, i have this week then break and then i switch families, and everything is very routine now. which is kinda dissapointing, i really loved when i got here, and everything was new and exciting. things are still new and exciting but its just not the same.
