McAULEY DINNER @ PANAROTTIS [28-11-06]

It was a miracle that isa and i actually managed to organise a dinner for all the girls and the majority of us mcauley girlies showed up! Considering we're usually all talk and no action, this really has been the easiest and quickest dinner to organise!
I'm so happy that you girlies could make it ... dinner at panarottis was really good! It's so lovely to catch up with everyone especially it being so long since we've done so and i also want to say that i love the new blacktown dining entertainment area such a good lazy local hang out spot!
Panarottis restaurant was surprisingly good i had the mexicana pizza it was really nice except they're pretty slow on the food service but we did order a tonne of pizzas so all is forgiven.

Omg on a last note TJ isa's lil baby boy not so little anymore ... is the most adorable kid ever haha he's such a photo whore! definately not camera shy and jumps at every photo opp! love him! He's all grown up now the big 0-5 haha last time i saw him was at his 1st bday! i feel so old now! *tears*

i wish i had more group shots of all the girls but i wasn't in a photo opp mood but i did manage to take THREE shots haha enjoy... (girls with the cameras i'm soooo going to steal pics off yourblog!)



the oh so adorable TJ

Me, Lou & Nette

Ange & Mags

Girls tonight was great and definately will make sure we organise another get together more often than once every 2 years! muah

KYLIE SHOWGIRL HOMECOMING CONCERT [24-11-06]


i'm such a kylie fan so really in my eyes kylie can do no wrong! it was an amazing concert i must admit not her best concert but it was good none the lesss....she's such a performer even during technical difficulties she still manages to stick around and entertain us by singing some crowd requests to kill the time...
She had many mad costumes which at first i must admit i did not really like when i saw pictures but they looked really good on stage ...
FAVOURITE part???
when she performed red blooded woman mainly the beginning where all her hot male dancers were in a row doing push ups! haha you should have listened to the crowd cheer!!! lots of wolf whistles i tell ya! lol





Lou posted a solo pic of me and those free flags (that everyone kept on coming up to us asking where we had got it from) ... so i thought i'd return the favour and post a solo pic of lou

POST SELECTION COUNSELLING

A few weeks ago i had applied for a position in a company we shall name anonymous and today i have finally received a letter from them notifying me that i was unsuccessful in my application ... so it was just like any other rejection letter however after reading the second paragraph it just got me in stitches thinking WTF????

the second paragraph goes like this :

" should you wish to receive post-selection counselling please contact the convenor of the selection committee ... "

ermmmmmm maybe this is normal for companies to offer POST SELECTION COUNSELLING i don't know but it had me in stitches ... i mean do they have many applicants contacting them all traumatised about the rejection??? i mean is it so bad that they need to offer COUSELLING??? haha its so odd!

ok anyways i just thought i'd post this up ... i thought it was funny...

BONDI TO BRONTE - SCULPTURE BY THE SEA [19-11-06]

About 2 weeks ago angela and i had ventured out on our regular-ish bondi to bronte walk. Because we figured it would be a regular activity we did not bring along our camera but only to find on the day along the coasts were people setting up numerous sculptures on display! You can imagine how annoyed we were to discover so many photo opps but have no camera! arrghhhhhh ....

after 2 weeks of crap weather, today being the last day of the exhibition we were realy lucky to have such great weather actually bit too hot for my liking but better hot than it being overcast!

the walk was really busy ... i guess we weren't the only two thinking that if we go early at 8.30am there might be a chance of it not being so crowded but we were wrong! the path had never been busier everyone slowly admiring the 108 sculptures just like us...

today was such a fun day .... our goal was to capture all 108 unfort we only took 106 pics as one had been taken down and another was a sky writing pic which we had missed out on! damn it! there were many fascinating sculptures and quite a few fugly ones that look like a 5 yr old had constructed them! eeek

We took heaps of photos and numerous EXTRA lame EXTRA geeky EXTRA embarassing pics! haha well i mainly posed for all the obviously embarassing pics with various sculptures i had even received some laughs from strangers haha oh wells it was all well worth it! the pics are hilarious! Angela on the other hand seemed to be posing for all pics which required her to stick her head through sectors of the sculptures! haha

Anyways i am now back home tired, starving, over tanned and EXTREMELY burnt on my chest with a bad tanline =(



Enjoy the pics we took alot of effort to get them! lol

DAVE HUGHES [11-11-06]


I've always had a soft spot for my hughesy ... he's the ONLY reason why i tune into the glasshouse every wednesday, i mean it certainly isn't for wil anderson or corinne grant!!!

anyways all i have to say is that on sat night i went and saw the dave hughes stand up show at the enmore theatre with jen and it was absolutely fantastic! i was cracking up from start til end ... he's just sooo funny without even trying!

there were just sooo many memorable moments :

- the macca jokes

- the stabbing shower jokes with reference to their fat cousins! (you had to be there lol
- car trouble jokes

omg it was endless ... if you haven't been to a dave hughes stand up show definately check him out next time round it was well worth it! if i liked hughesy before i totally HEART him now!


verdict: 10/10
AFTER the show we decided to go and have some dessert ...
jen suggested some korean place in strathfield and omg i now know why i NEVER go to strathfield that place is such a hole ... we circled the place like 5 times and had no luck with parking! The people there seem to love walking through the parking lot or just stand around and chat in the parking lot BUT none of them owned a car in the lot! seriously wtf!
after the many rounds of attempt we opted for max brenner instead ... i love max brenner!
