ROAST

Today was Wilson's birthday celebration
Also belated, it seems to be a pattern with our group
He just came back from China anyway

I'm trying to avoid stereotypical titles like "____'s B'day" but I think it might end up being more confusing...?
I dunno.

So anyway, we gathered to have a nice roast at Wilson's house
I was late (as per usual) cos I was making this card pretty last minute

Caf had her camera so I decided not to take so many photos today
I ended up taking quite a few anyway

Fruit punch? Knowing Caf, it most probably had alcohol in it
It was quite nice

Playing COD: Zombie level mode thingy

At least I wasn't so late as to miss the food, people were mostly chilling and talking when I arrived

We had a roast outside, with lanterns
It was pretty chilly out

Writing fudge + Tim Tams

We got him a ukulele! I wonder how good of a ukulelelele player he is by now, haha
It looked like a really good quality one too

Hah

Today I had my first piano lesson from Judith
I've forgotten everything already

Ocarinas, which the twins brought back from HK
I totally spazzed and turned into a nerd when they mentioned these, probably went a bit crazy
If you know about The Legend of Zelda you'd know why

We played Hats, Team Lebanese Cucumber vs Team African Cucumbers
My team of Lebanese Cucumbers won, I wasn't expecting that haha
The ocarinas were really distracting near the end though

Choo's duck ocarina

My ocarina, I tried to get as close as possible to the original one from Zelda
It's green instead of blue but has roughly the same shape

After that I had to leave
It was a nice night, always good to catch up with high school peeps

Le Petit Prince

Just some stuff that's been happening at uni


Normally I'd start in chronological order but I wanted to post this first
Found this book in an old book shop at the Hawthorn campus
It's one of my all time favourite books, everrr


Found this old car for sale, $3,500
"1956 M8 JAGUAR"
I thought it was cool but since I'm poor and can't drive
It's not an option


Dinner at Crown
I don't go here much
But those calamari rings were delicious


My hands had this weird pattern on them for some reason
(Yes, this post is really jumbled)


Empty train, first time I've ever been the only person in the entire carriage
It was kinda spooky but also nice & peaceful


Typical lecture notes
Half doodling and half scribbles
1% lecture content
Haha my friends keep asking me why I draw creepy shit
I draw other stuff too, guess I'll post photos later


At uni they had this bicycle which blended your own free smoothie as you pedaled
I was almost tempted
But ultimately too lazy to actually exercise for food
I think the last time I legitimately exercised was in Year 10 P.E...
That's like, 3 - 4 years ago


Macca's new Waffle Cone, don't get it, it's shit


Noodle Box Kway Teow
Always feels good when the waiter complements you on your order
I feel like I take a lot more photos of food on my phone now haha
I guess it's just more acceptable when everyone else is doing it too
I don't Instagram them though!


Our Marketing lecturer is pretty cool
I know all about working in Kodak now
I took a picture because there's a horse mask in one of the pictures
Thought it was funny + relevant


Went inside St Paul's Cathedral for the first time
It was awesome
I really admire detailed architecture
I should go back someday with my camera


Spotted this cool R2D2 tin can in an op shop
Didn't buy it though
Because I'm trying to break my habit of impulse buying completely useless things
That I never use


FOUND THIS BOOK IN AN OP SHOP
On the same day
It's one of my favourite books by Stephen King
It's a compilation of short stories
Now I have to find my favourite one
Which is called "Skeleton Crew"


Some snow at Uni
In Australia all our snow is rock hard, it's sad
Apparently in the Northern hemisphere all the snow is super soft & fluffy?
whaaat


Submitted my first folio for this subject
I got my tutor's name wrong, it's actually Keith
