The end is near: #6
I have been collecting pictures of places and spaces and objects that have some significance to me. Here are some of them.
The last day of uni
How bittersweet. It began with our very last Public Meeting team meeting.
Public Meetings Team
And then onto the Thursday prayer meeting - also my last one! My friend Laura, who organises this meeting, wanted a photo of the group to brag to the other leaders about the number of people who turn up :P (I know this isn't many people but sadly it's one of the bigger ones! How is it that hundreds of people will go to bible study or public meetings talks or annual conference but not prayer meeting?). Laura had some trouble setting the timer on the camera. This photo took about five minutes to take. This was the third try.
Hooray Thursday prayer meeting!
Then it was onto morning tea with my friend Liz.

And then running into my friend Amanda who was busy rolling up an extensive amount of tangled red wool back into a neat ball. She is going to Melbourne tomorrow and, no kidding, she is preparing to re-stage the "get lost in Melbourne" advertising campaign with her friend while they are there. I followed her to Moore books where she met Mark who has, incidentally, also followed a ball of red string around Melbourne, although apparently in reference to a Something for Kate song rather than an ad campaign. Much less capitalist, Mark :P
Amanda with her wool.
Amanda with the tangled wool and myself with the neat wool. Mark took this picture for us.
I realised after I left that I forgot to take a picture with Mark too, so unfortunately I don't have one to put up. However experts suggest that he probably would have looked something like this:
Mark in Moore books sometime in the past.
After public meeting I stayed back for afternoon tea and I even got to play hackey sack, just like I was in first year again. There I was, in my Wishful Thinking hoodie and my COL shirt, playing hackey with my friend Simon who is an Engineer in the year above me and was one of the cool Engo guys who let me play hackey with them when I started uni. How nice. But the other guys we were playing with were young and/or exchange students so they probably didn't appreciate the moment so much. You know, it was just a game of hackey.
