another weekend in torquay

its 9:30 in the morning on monday the 27th of october and my last assessment is in about half an hour or so. i dont ahve to take any tests or anything, just talk about my work and get some hopefully positive feedback. we shall see. but its a nice feeling being done. im pretty much all packed and well, just ready to get out of here. real glad i got that flight to burleigh tomorrow. the city has tired me and im ready to get my feet dirty with sand and not piss and beer from a pub floor. aside from that, this past weekend was pretty glorious indeed. i worked one last night in the kitchen at M.O.O- made 90 bucks in 4 hours, cooking. it was awesome. the next day i pasked up my room and then that night, my buddy benny drove the two of us over to Torquay for the weekend to stay with katey and tyler. got in a bit late, and then steve came after work, so he got in about 12. and then we called it a night to get some rest for the next day to come. saturday’s weather couldn’t have been compromised. the sun would peek out from the clouds here and there, but the temperature was just perfect, no wind or rain and we even got to take some boards out for some surfing. it was awesome. ive only been surfing twice and that was at the jersey shore, so im not positive if that counts or not. but being out there with a crew of your mates was awesome. made me realize why people love surfing. your having a blast trying to catch waves and at the same time can just chill out in the water and have a chat and a laugh. its the type of sport where you could sit there for a few hours having a great time, not catch a good wave all day, and well quite frankly not be bummed about it. it doesnt put that pressure of an audience or people trying to one up each other. nice feeling. im sure some of you know what im talking about, atleast i hope so.  but after our surf, we went for a little skate, hung out at the beach amd just had a relaxing day and night. dont think i saw a shadow all day, but it was nicer than there being sun, that would have been a bit too hot. sunday brought on the same weather, excpet for the addition of a really warm breeze, making our beach volleyball toss around and out swimming situation quite delightful. after that we grilled up some little burgers and chicken skewers. man that word does not look right.. skewers.. hmph. but it was a nice feed, well satisfying and ended withs oem dark chocolate timtams. we dont have them in the states, but they are these nice chocolate biscuit cookies with a bit of chocolate cream, covered in a dark chocolate coat. delicious i must say. if any of you have had them, you know where im coming from. ill bring some home if i remember.  well after the feast, we all headed back to melbourne, me and benny headed to our frined micheal’s radio show at RRR. you can actually check out the website at RRR.org.au. i have yet to check it out, but will most certainly do so when i finish writting this post. he played a great number of tunes, making for a lovely ending and beginning of the week and week to come.  good times here in the suburbs.   also a great night, 65 or 70 degrees im guessing, a bit humid, causing for a lack of sleep last night, which is leaving me feeling a bit seedy this morning. ill get through it though. well im going to get some brekky- only way to get your day going.  see you all soon
