I just got back from Cold Rock :d I was going to have Milky Way and raspberries again, but they didn’t have any Milky Ways, so I had Mars Bar and raspberries in cookies ‘n’ cream ice cream. Yuuuuummmmmm.
Yesterday, like lots of other people, I went to the last stage of the Tour Down Under. I finally managed to drag Matthew along to the cycling. I think he preferred it to having his eyes poked with sharp sticks, particularly when the scantily clad women bearing free stuff came walking past. I enjoyed it, but since Stuart O’Grady wasn’t riding this year (and he’s changed teams
), I didn’t really care who won, so it wasn’t quite the same as previous years. But it was still good! Apart from the stupid girls who tried to push to the front (one succeeded >:| ) right on the last lap to see what was happening. The one girl who did manage to push in did so in front of a little boy who was trying to watch the race. Bitch. We’d all been standing there for the whole two-hour race, and then these stupid cows think they can come along in the last lap and expect to get to the front. Piss off. It really annoys me when people do that. So we tried to make things as uncomfortable as possible for the one who pushed in. Grrrrrr. There are so many un-ladylike expressions I want to use right now, but I’ll refrain. If you want to be right at the front, get there early like everyone else does and hold on to your spot.
We didn’t go to SkyShow last night, but instead we walked around the corner from our house, and had a good view from there. It probably would have been better to have been there, since everything would have been so much bigger, but it was kind of cool to be standing looking over the city, and then see the fireworks start. And it was definitely better than trying to battle the ton of people who were there. I think we saw pretty much everything - I don’t know how much really low stuff there was, but we could still see fireworks that were quite low. It was damn windy and cold though. And then when we were walking home, we saw some fireworks somewhere else! I have no idea where it was, but we stood and watched those for a couple of minutes before walking the rest of the way home.
