Haven't been here in a while, so I decided to pop in for a quickie blog. Anywho, yesterday was heaps fun, despite it being the last Parra Thursday and all. No more 15 minute walks to OLMC, passing around the footy (or in my case, watching everyone else pass around the footy) and generally causing chaos around Parra. No more, as Kate put it, large groups of red/green and blue/yellow walking to Food Court 1 and bumming the time away. No more scrambling to try and make it to the early bus, then ending up taking the 4:20 anyway (most likely because, even though the bus was there, we were too slow/lazy to make it). No more using 'too tired from having fun at Parra' as an excuse not to do homework. Even though those days are gone, I've still got a lot to look forward to, so I guess I'm bittersweet about it.
Anywho! The day itself was pretty fun. Trained it to Parra by myself (lost track of the guys thanks to someone in Year 11 borrowing my stuff and me having to chase him up for it), but ended up getting there before they did anyway. Then, after my usual routine of scouring JB Hi-Fi for new music, me, Karl and Ariel went to the field. The guys were already playing, so I got the old (and by old, I mean, buy me a new digicam PLEASE) digicam out and took a BUNCH of random pics. I have to say, I think I've mastered the art of random photo taking. The evidence in the photo album speaks for itself. Highlights include: ginormous group photos, a TON of random pics, the ball got stuck in the tree AGAIN thanks to Julian the Prettyboy, human pyramid and post-pyramid destruction left me smiling AND aching...oh, and got a sweet card from Di! (Happy 8th of the month for yesterday, by the way).
Photog session yesterday was fun, and next week's video session for the final Thursday EVER looks to be even better. I'm DEFINITELY bringing the handycam for that; apparently there are big ballgames (both Foot and Basket) scheduled. And damnit, if I'm leaving Patties, I'm damn sure looking to leave a lasting impression captured on videotape, fingers crossed.
I'm beat, and this quickie blog's turned not so quickie - I've gone overtime by approximately fifteen minutes. So I'm guessing it's off to the homework desk for me. I'm rationing my homework this weekend (which to me includes Friday night); since I've got something to do for all six subjects, it's gonna be two a day (or night, whatever). Anywho, here's hoping to get through everything I need to get through, then get enough sleep for Macquarie open day tomorrow. Anyways, later days!

P.S. If it's not too much trouble, I'd just like to ask if people could offer a prayer or two for my grandfather back in the old country, 'cause he's not exactly fighting fit at the moment. A couple of prayers here and there would be very much appreciated. On behalf of the family, thanks a whole heap.
END COMMUNICATION.
