im bored and lonely...

We lost oztag tonight, again. 12-7 was the scoreline. I thought i could inspire the team tonight after being absent last week, lol. I scored 2 tries but lapses in concentration throughout the game cost us dearly. We have been split after the first week, and our team is in division1 for mixed. Hopefully some practice will put us in good stead and i can notice we are improving.

I feel lost and without friends for some reason. Most of my close friends are working full time and i havent seen some of them for quite some time. Im finding during the week i am in so many different places doing so many different things and its stupid. Church,biblestudy, cricket, oztag, work, pub, training. What the hell i should just pick one and stick to it.

Nevertheless i dont see my same old sparkling and outgoing personality anymore because i dont even know who i am anymore. I dont have any interest in meeting new people anymore because i just dont want to know new people anymore. People are just people and they dont matter to me. I dont feel the need to impress anyone. What has become of me?

I dunno. It just sux thats all.

So what a busy start to the holidays it has been, but cant say im not making the most of them! Dont think ive had much time to sit down and relax. This is one of those rare moments!

So Oatley pub is now all done up, and its halfway finished. It is definately the place to be on a friday night and im sure all the locals agree too. If you want to run into someone from your high school(s), or even primary school, or people from your sporting team; people you like and dislike, you name it you'll run into them there more likely than not. I think bradfords count was about 60, mine about 2 not counting drunks.

Anyway the walk back home was so long- lurgano via mortdale shops via christmas light looking and two breaks. My fitness really proved itself when i was able to get through a whole day of cricket today!! Good news is our team is in peak form (touch wood) and we are kiking arse. So obviously we won again today.

I heard we lost oztag again last week and thats 2losses in a row. I couldnt turn up cos of post exam syndrome. Im disspointed but i know our team is out there for fun not competition. I think in a mixed side it is the girls that makes all the difference. They can make or break the team. The really good sides have girls who have skill level same if not better than the guys and that is credit to them. So i'll be there next week rearing to go and supporting the ladies!!

Till next time
Take care all

Sometimes it happens that you lock eyes with a stranger. Not just an ordinary stranger, but an attractive woman… That moment came today, when the train I was traveling in just happened to stop parallel to another. And when the two trains parted alongside in opposite directions, that moment came. It was like something out of a movie. We locked eyes for only a split second but seemed like forever. I don’t know why my heart skipped a beat but it did. I was sitting in a backward facing seat and she in the same going in the opposite direction. It was a defining moment when I thought about temptation and moving away from it, away from the façade of things and entering the tunnel where everything on the inside may be seen. It literally happened, as I was at Wolli Creek, and it was scary when I thought about it.

Well, yum cha was great today. Besides bearing the extreme cold and rain we reached the Mari Gold (my apologies if the spelling is wrong) Restaurant. Surprisingly it was uneventful and we got away with our stomachs full. Well at least for about 2hrs until Sammy complained of hungriness! We all went shopping in Market City, a relatively unexplored place for me; and good news is I found some cheap shirts! Danni goes away to Europe on Sunday and all the best with that! Hope you write to me!!

Holidays are here…I plan on frequenting the beach, working heaps at Coles and the council, going on holidays, training a lot, keeping in top shape, and catching up with everyone!! I’m excited it’s all over and I’m going to enjoy these holidays thoroughly. I didn’t appreciate them last time around because all I did was party get drunk and forget things, then party and get drunk and forget things, then party and… yeh that sorta thing. So I’m sure I didn’t make the most of those holidays. I definitely will cherish them this time around.

Cheers

So im back here... its a thursday and pretty much in the middle of everything. The events of the week have already taken place, and the excitement of the weekend is just around the corner...

Oztag was a blast on wednesday night. Got those rusty legs off to a flyer, having to adjust to the league- oriented rules. Running rampant were Jerry, John and Stu which gave me great encouragement to run in 2tries of my own. Girls did very well too. I clearly know what to expect now and bring on the season of Oz-tag!! Its only gonna get better each week!

Thought id mention Bennys 20th party on Sat. It was awesome to catchup with some friends again and Jacksons is always an excellent chillout. Couldnt make band night at church unfortunately it was on the same night. Cant make silent auction either this sat which is a total bummer. The CBM uni-ball is on and im going all out with my suit and (hot) date :P. They are definately two of the most important criteria for a formal/dinner party!!

Exams are looming, only 2weeks till its all over!! Speech was over with today... and just one more assignment!! Awesome. Holidays? Hell yea! Beach, North Coast, Plenty of sport, parties! I will miss a lot of people but i will definately catch up with a lot too! Please give me a shout!!

Cheers Everyone
