LOVELY PEOPLE :)

After several years of having multiple emails of which I dont really need, I've managed to merge them all into one. The convenience of this is only having to check one email account instead of a dozen, which were mostly filled with junkmail. This way you'll never miss a single correspondence and all will be happy in paradise, çoz I cant forget to reply : Ah! Breakage from email bondage.

Melbourne is really starting to grow on me. Everyone, well almost everyone, is super helpful and are always here to offer a kind word, and great advice. They are also very welcoming. There was this time I went to a friend of the church's house, and they were UBER nice. They showered us with lots of food, and the whole family came out to the living area to be in company with us.

P.S. The Adino songs were great! if anyone has any.... can you please send them to me.
I loved that song FADE ON. Kat does a sweet vocal in that song.
K! so I've officially decided to not try and figure out the past, present or future. just let it happen. let God guide me the right direction. Que sera Que sera!

*snort* some Gold Coast Adventures

Shirlene counting down the hours I've been gone. How cute!


Our lives are like a fountain of memories... Getaways are an extra drop to those memories.... they always add to the beauty of the memories; the fountain just glowing brighter...the water sparkling like crystals. I cannot sum up the experience I've had on this getaway, so I'll just let the pictures do the talking. It has to be one of the best adventure I've ever been on. Great fun with friends. Starkling revelations. *snort* some rides. Great shops. Rekindling our memories. Stayin g up late laughing. Playing cluedo with DVD help. Laughing at things which aren't necessarily funny. Hugging Koalas. Chillin with the kangaroos. Eating icecreams. Getting lost in seaworld. Quality time. Bulldozing. Shopping at pacific fair. Eating food westies style.

But now everyone is a million miles away. But not to worry, always ready to rendevous later on.

Holidays are such a happy time.

A temporary escape from everyday life.

Everyone is so smily and chirpy!

& even romances can blossom.... wink wink nudge oink *falls off the seat*

Guy Fawkes

while the rest of NZ is watching the night sky light up in an array of beautiful colours and lighting what could be potentially dangerous in their backyard, I am watching my glare of my computer screen.Australia don't celebrate guy fawkes and fireworks are only to be used on special occassions, in the hands of professional (so I've been advised)

One of my youth groupies said it a New Zealander had told him that it's because New Zealanders are much more friendlier than Australians. That's why they have it and we don't :(

Oh well, lest we all remember...

"Remember, remember, the 5th of November
The Gunpowder Treason and plot ;
I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
'Twas his intent.
To blow up the King and the Parliament."
