Oh man, I'm looking at my room right now and I can't help but sigh...big sighs! No matter how many times I clean it, it never seems to look neat and tidy. I seriously have way too much in my room that I am contemplating moving half of my stuff into my brother's room and maybe take up the study room too....but booo, that means more walking to get to things...dilemmas! I am in a bit of a organising mood, I'm sure you have all experienced this before...where you just have this urge to clean, straighten and neaten! Yeah...that's me right now. I've been looking through the Ikea catalogue too, to give me a bit of motivation to start cleaning and gosh, it's making me want to move into the wonderful store...endless meatballs and pear cider! omgosh...it's almost like heaven haha! Anyhoooo, enough of my babbling...wat's been happeninggggg??
On Friday night, it was the Glory game. Dorky and me decided to have a quick dinner beforehand and I think we went and bought CHOOKS! It is soooooo good! They fried our chicken fresh, so you could taste the flavours of the chicken and the peppery batter...yummmm! We ate that pretty fast then it was off to the glory! It was soooooo cold outside that night and I went numb all over! The game itself went faster than usual and it was quite exciting to watch! The team played quite differently, they had a faster pace in my opinion. I found myself watching the game more this time =) Anyway, by the end of the match my feet were ice cold! Twas a good game though...Glory won =D
Saturday....dorky and me went to IKEA!! haha. I was on a mission to buy a laptop cushion after seeing it at Jas's house! I arrived there all excited!!! We had lunch there first...meatballs and chips , pumpkin soup and dorky had the chicken and vegetables, pear cider and a chocolate mousse. Such yummy food, but in a way it reminded me of plane food? But I love plane food! hehe...the only disappointment about it was that they didn't have any salmon =( Anyway, after we were filled up to the brim, we began exploring the store where we dreamt of our future house designs...such wonderful dreams =) Yeaps...before long we found the laptop cushion and dorky even got one for himself. I also picked up a large cushion for my swivel chair, so yay! No more sore bottom! I also saw a glass table that I really really want, but I'm not sure if it will fit in my room well, so maybe another time =( And then at the end of our shopping journey, dorky bought a whole slab of pear cider home...craaaaaazy, but he gave me some for emergency drinks..thankyou! Harharhar...after that home I went to try out my new things. Also, later that night, dorky went and picked up his rellies from the airport and I stayed home and slept =)
On Sunday, I missed out on dimsum with dorky's family...I decided to do some work instead. It was quite a productive day and I got a lot of resources made. After their lunch, dorky and me went to the movies to watch District 9 and it sure is a pretty graphic and I suppose, unique film about cruelty against aliens? Very interesting, although disgusting haha. After the movie, we joined dorky's family for dinner at Tony Romas...the ribs were so good that night, the best that I have had so far. I was completely filled up and had no room for dessert, boohoo. Thankyou to uncle for treating us all! Too bad Sunday went so fast...before I knew it I was already in bed ready for work the next day =(
On Monday afternoon I got an unexpected phonecall from Mr Rob Osborne. He asked me if I was free to relief teach the next day...of course I said yes! So on Tuesday I started my first relief teaching job at West Leeming!! It was so exciting to be back, but I was a bit nervous too. I rocked up at the front office with bagsful of things and was given a map of the school and a timetable..eeps! I'd already forgotten how to get around the school...I forgot how to get to middleblock so I asked a few kids, who didn't know either...my goodness, how long have they been at school for now? Hahaha neh...after asking about 3 kids I was pointed into the right direction. The class that I got had majority boys and about 6 girls...so as you could imagine, with a combination of a new teacher and classroom full of 8 year old boys, it would be a very busy day. The day started off with fitness, they were practising for their sports carnival I think...the baton relay...do you remember that? Haha..they kind of really sucked at it too =/ lol...funny to watch though. Then afterwards I got the kids to play some literacy games and also got them writing for an hour. Then came recess, then maths games then lunch. I decided to be really brave and ate my lunch in the staffroom. I entered and nervously said hello to Mr Hurrel!!! Who smiled at me and said hi. Then I sat at a table by myself and I was alone for a while, but then other teachers came in and joined me yey! Mrs K Brown was there, Mrs Ellis and a few others that I had never seen before. It was funny because they couldn't believe that 10 years had passed since I was a student at the school and they kept saying that they must've aged a lot since then...but they hadn't really? To me they looked exactly the same and I told them that hahaha...I think I may have won myself some brownie points lol. We had a good laugh...they were really nice and gave me a lot of support =) After lunch the kiddies told their news and then we did a worksheet to fill in time, then they went off for music, so Ii had an hour to spare and decided to helpt he French teacher next door. Funfunfun day and best of all...the paaaaaaay!! I can't wait to be called for relief again =) Please let it be soon!
Wednesday and Thursday I had cafe work and it was blah....same old same old. On Thursday night, dorky and me went to Garbos and we tried the new angus burgers from maccas. Try them! They aren't too bad at all...alot more filling than the normal burgers and they look a little healthier too..mmm the grand angus! We shopped around Garbo, looking at puppies, buying stationary and then grocery shopping. After that we headed to utopia to meet the girls for another session of bbt! We talked and laughed heaps...ahahaha and Eva and her Boon Pu lol! She cracked up for ages and so did we =) We also talked about 21sts, awwww I'm getting excited for everyone...I only wish that I could've planned a better 21st birthday now, but I had no one to talk to it about when I had mine...oh well, there's always my 23rd??? Hehehe!
Now it's Fridaaaaay, I finally get a day to relax. My nights have been filled with Job applications, resource making, lesson planning and facebook games haha. Today, I shall not do much yay! But tonight we shall have some fun at Karaoke wahoo!! Can't wait!
