I haven't even written about it and it's Monday afternoon...crazy
so Saturday was Tim's 21st. He got to try out his new bbq....but I dunno....it was a kinda boring night and Sam was in a terribly weird mood. Sam went to pancake parlour with her friends and wasn't back when I wasn't asleep so of course I made all these far fetched assumptions, none of which were true....and she came home soon after.
Awoke at 5...not really...more 5:30 for a 6:30 start at Walk Against Want....went my brisk morning jog to mark out the course... early morning jogs are actually something I like to do, so I was fine with that. I did some sprints around Lakeside and that had me feeling good....though going down to mark the course was not the most of fun, it made me feel like a big hooligan and my tag was "WALK AGAINST WANT" anyway...finished that off....blduged around for a while, had free breakfast and hot chocolate...got my marshals together then went and took up my position as traffic marshal on Bowen Drive. The first go I thought to myself "I'm not going to last til the end of the day" but I got kinda used to it...and then kinda bored....one guy yelled out "if ya gonna do it....do it properly" I'm not entirely sure what he was talking about...but I don't like when people criticise my work, even it's a big load of junk...but I thought I did a fine job...the walkers flowed and I kept the traffic going alright....we packed it in and headed back to the festival site where there were....belly dancers....they were bad news.
Packed up not that long after, had a few sausages for free...after the pack up it was BEER TIME (on oxfam ;)) so we had a few in the park then went back to Renee's house.....hmm yeah...that was a bit boring for me....it was Renee and two of her army friends who had been helping out on the day...it was funny actually one of those guys got of the truck in the morning and I just thought to myself "ARMY!" but anyway, my main purpose was to get really fucking drunk. Dad called as he's up for a course so I told him to come in and pick me up so he arrived, then Sam called and I told her we could pick her up. Stole a few beers for the road then headed to Celebrate in The Park via picking up Sam.
Just as we were arriving Benno sent me a message saying "when should I come to the park" and I said "NOW!!!!!"
so the celbrating of the park was a bit meh.....saw Ash Mannix who we already know is sucky and kinda boring....Casual Projects who were a bit more entertaining...some guy who sung about sports, who was lame...as much as I like sports....lame lame lame.
Then Something for Kate, who were pretty good bum in the park music...not terribly exciting but anyhow, it was something to do, and mainly...it was free.
So we drive home and I'm all like "hey it's only 7:30" "yeah"...."let's go get drunk" and Dad goes "no Daniel, you've already done that"...woops :P
So we stopped off at Sam's and her mum gave me all this random food, so that was good. I was really drunk at that stage so I decided the best idea would be to avoid talking.
So had a group meeting for event management this morn...i dunno...it didn't go all that crash hot. meh. It's starting to get there. Also I don't have a group for Sports Marketing...proposal is due next week...EEK...FUCK. it's a 3-4 person one. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that one. urghhh.
For sports sponsorship we're going to do a footbag related one...possibly UCU footbag club maybe. Speaking of that club...I'm going to get all the affiliation shit together in the next couple of days, get it in before I go to Brisbane
I leave to Syd on Wed night. Then to Bris thursday arvo.
So yeah. I'm gonna go eat some garlic bread...yummo
