Beaches and procrastination

Every student knows that tendency, when they are supposed to do something academic, they find tons of other things to do. Since springbreak was a blissful holiday away from all things coming with a deadline, I now have a load of groupwork, presentations, articles to read etc. so naturally I am now writing this blog.

After being away it was nice again to have dinner with all the people in the house and I realize that once I'm back I will miss coming back to such a full house. On Tuesday we celebrated Ruben' s 24th birthday picknickstyle on the floor, because there was not enough space on the couches. When he went off with his friends to go out, we stayed chatting with the remaining housemates. On wednesday I took of in my businessdress, but since our team didn't get a turn to present I will have to dress up again coming Wednesday.

Thursday after class Lisianne and I decided to check out the big shopping centre in Bondi Junction, which is known to be so huge you get lost (since the both of us seem to lack the intuition to find the right direction this is not too hard though). In the evening we went to the Worldbar in Kings Cross where they have Indie night. I fell in love with the place where dentistlamps light up the dozens of teapots on the walls in which they serve cocktails and the jeans on the wall. Not to mention hearing Kings of Leon and Franz Ferdinand while going out.




On Friday we had another birthday from Justine and we had been given the task to all bring food. Therefore we went to the house of some other friends to bake pancakes because we lack proper pans while they were making quiche, salad and other jummy things we weren't allowed to eat yet. With rumbling stomachs we hurried to our house and spend the night eating delicousness in her garden. In the end there were chocholate muffings, apple pie and cranberry crumble all made by Justine and it was a pitty we all had to stop eating because our bellies were practically exploding from our foodbabies. We played hilarious games involving the imitations of whales and the most hilarious bunny I have ever seen thanks to Nano. We ended up literally running home in the middle of the night.

The next morning we woke up early so we could go to Manly, but it was cloudier than expected so instead another day of procrastination began. Luckily yesterday the weather was amazing and we took the beautiful ferry trip to the beach up North. The strong current and big number of surfers prevented us from taking a dip in the water, but nonetheless we enjoyed the sun on our skin and picknicked on the beach.


Now all my postcards have been written, this blog updated and I'm running out of excuses and my communications presentation is giving me an evil eye...
Lets look up snorkling trips at the great barrier reef!
