Merry Chickens

Hi all, sorry I havent posted for ages! Ok, I had better fill you in on
whats been happening, since I finished my exams, I havent thought about uni
at all. It's been the best feeling.. hehe.. But the results do come out
tomorrow, so I better not jinx it.
I've been working alot lately, which is good, cause I have money. I have
also spent alot of time just catching up with friends. It's been cool, and
apparently we are doing new years down at Rosebud, or my other option is
Marysville State Park.. I still havent decided.
I dont know if I wrote earlier about going to germany, but apparently there
is a study tour running at the end of next year for the second year PDE
students, so I cant wait to find out more info. I better start saving tho.
:)
I had my birthday, which was alot of fun. I am now officially 19. I had a
BBQ with a bunch of friends down at Jells Park, and it was cool just to hang
out for a while. Unfortunately, I dont have many photos to post up for that
one. As usual, we had a family dinner to celebrate my birthday on the actual
day, but because we were all so busy, we ended up having chinese. It was too
challenging to properly cook. hehe. As it turned out, we ordered way too
much food, and had left overs for a couple days!
The other major event that I feel I should write about is my confirmation. I
got confirmed into the Uniting Church, which I have been attending since I
was really little. Now it's official though, and before I got confirmed I
did a series of workshops. I may have written about them before. I have some
photos from the day, so I think I will post them up here.
Another church thing is the childrens advent workshops that we run every
year as a sort of outreach program. The aim of the program is to educate
children about the true meaning of christmas. Anywho, I've been helping out
with that, just supervising crafts and things like that.
Now that we are well and truely into the christmas season, we must spread
christmas cheer, and that means lots of happy shoppers at work... *rolls
eyes* It seems that people all need their christmas gifts early and they all
need the same things, we just cant get enough tamagotchi toys, or game
consoles. I was quite impressed when myself and Tim collectively sold four
XBOX ultimate packs in 10 mins! !!That's the power of a almost completely
commercially driven holiday these days!!
Anywho, I think I am just yabbering now. Catch ya laters, oh, and if i
forget... **MERRY CHICKENS** hehe
