HOMAGE

Probably one of the things im the most greatful to my parents for.. is letting me come back to Australia for 10 days while i had a break. Sleeping in my own house/bed, eating mother's asian delights was really good for my soul.

Tried to spend as much time with as many friends as i could, basically completing my list as much as i could. Spent some quality time with marcus just doing what we normally do, mostly bumming at his.. then bumming at mine but it was fun just to feel the regular life in Melbourne.

Although most of you at uni had exams, it was nice at least to see you guys and if i missed anyone ill try my best to see you on my second trip.. hopefully next year!



Also had some quality times with Mish.. the ethnic black kid which was fun as usual. LOL about hearing chair at amys... ahha i know she'll read this but im sorry its funny and if you don't get this then im sorry. i shant post the details here for her sake. It was nice to see amys as well as the rest of the old schoolday friends.

Watched their epic mixed semi final netball game on the monday which i felt they should have won but were robbed by huge 30 year old men with beards so.. apparently i was the bad luck omen.. then we decided it was dom so i guess im safe.



It was a shame didn't get to see everyone.. mostly because of their exams and work but we hit up some 18th at Y bar which apparently was fun.. haha only tim morry bryn gorms and me would understand lol

Ran into my good mate jwongington at 3rd class which was mad.. even though we already had our pho adventure earlier in the week combined with cs against little vietnamese and china children which we got smashed at. but don't worry.. lets not forget whos m16 trained.. OP its me

ANYWAY there isn't enough time.. or effort for me to post everything buuut it was really nice to see everyonee.

It was really nice to see everyone at church on sunday again, nothing really made me feel more at home and the fact that we packed nandos full of asian people still amuses me a lot.

anyway.. thats it from me for now.. it was nice to come home.. :D


POP



ie passing out parade! haha its been a long time since the last post.. so i don't understand how anyone would be reading this blog consistantly anymore but i shall pester people. To my credit though lots of stuffs gone down so nows the time to get back on this blogging business!




The time finally came for my passing out basic military training which marks a milestone in my national service term.. ie CLOSER to ORD ie going home

the parade was pretty phenominal as normally before the army i would not have considered myself a drill person but the feeling of celebrating with mates you've been through a lot with was sweet.


The parade also signifies my rank to private haha and the right to grow some hair, which im not sure i will do as of yet. haha let me know if the baldishness isn't working out. Anyway this particular day made serving in the army seem worth while and the men from Hawk Company 02/08 shall never be forgotten. through basics we excel! lol

good times

hey friends of assorted nationality base. Seeing how its been a substantial ammount of time since i have put something up on this site i decided to do something to show i still cared.

AND SO if you haven't heard yet.. im comming back to melbourne this thursday! following my passing out of 3 months basic millitary school i finally get to come back home for 8 days. Looking forward to seeing everyone in just a bit

on another note I finally got the chance to meet up with an extremely old friend i haven't seen in close to 5 years. we spent most of the day in town and went to a pub to watch a band play a gig.
The atmosphere and the band were both pretty incredible plus eli's friend offered to pay for dinner so.. i do like my free stuff



Shortly after an army friend gave me a call asking me to head down to a club near town. All in all a good night.. haha getting mildly tired of describing events .. so i'll let the photos speak for themselves.





shenanyways.. haha love you all and looking forward to seeing you soon.
peace out A towns
