Back in Oz, and only experiencing the year of 2012 in Sydney almost one month after it began. Going to University this year and getting university plans set up over the past month has been quite a bit more stressful than I would have thought it was. Hopefully I’ve done everything correctly for the time being… Though apart from that, much of my time has been spent catching-up with friends and working to get my moneys back from Europe.  Catching up on my Europe Posts… A bit of a chore to be honest… But being there three weeks ago means it’s still somewhat fresh but clearly beginning to miss a few bits and pieces… To think tht just three weeks ago, I had some beautifully crisp weather with an unseasonably warm 5-15 degrees depending on where I was. And just a week after leaving, it plummets and transforms the place into a winter nightmare. And it forces the closure of a number of ancient attractions… Continue reading Europe Trip 11-12 – When in Rome, do as the other tourists do!  After a week in Paris with my New Years Eve comrades, it was time to part ways, some for Germany, others for various other parts of France. For me, it was off to the Benelux region, (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxombourg, but no Luxombourg…) Continue reading Europe Trip 11-12 – Within Benelux, but without the lux…  Bonne Année once again!  La bonne année!!! from Paris!
Quay is an Australian restaurant that boasts a top “Three Hat” ranking by the “Good Food Guide” for 10 years consecutively, as well as having won “Best Restaurant” and more recently “Chef of the Year” (Peter Gilmore) down here. None of us had ever been to a “Three Hat” restaurant before, nor have we spent $250~ for a single dinner… Not many would, seeing it as ‘just food’ but for us, ‘life is food’, and so, this was quite an experience for us…
Ahhh… School’s over and yet it isn’t… With school technically finished, all that’s left is our HSC and and then it is a few months of freedom!!! (with one month of worrying about our results…) But in that intermediary between graduation and studying for my HSC, there’s room for a little fun, and so we decided to celebrate a bit with a little trip to Ribs and Rumps at Macquarie Park, among other places, and I’ve spent some time experimenting with some photography and with a new Digital Audio Converter one of my friends bought.
With exams over, there were a load of birthdays to get through, futures to be planned, and just overall busyness!
Ergggghhhh… So tired… So, my trial exams are finally over! (Hence a lack of activity on my blog) Pretty sure I didn’t do all that well in them, but they are over now and I can get a little bit of my life back.  Back to school today… Not the most fun day, but rarely is school ever fun. My July winter holidays was an interesting mix of doing nothing, and several rather standout highlights.  |
