hits & misses this week

hits and misses for this week...

so my 30 day food journo started on monday.
healthy controlled eating and no alcohol here i come.
going well so far, managed a weekend away from booze, which was a good attempt following a night out in freo and then a day out on the boat (really wanted to crack open an ice cold beer!).
week one, success! time to fill up my fridge again with perishable! WOO!

touch have been going great, find myself lasting longer on the field during games.
prolly credit that to playing conditions during uni games under blazing hot sun that makes playing at night so much easier, not to mention fun as well with the team i'm with :)

got a new blog template because HTML idiot/itchy fingers me effed up my old one :(
so hopefully pink and girly sits well with me and my readers for awhile to come.
still under construction tho, and mark my words it will prolly take awhile. heh!

lots to catch up on with uni. boo!
2 exams this week with 1 report due. 1 seminar to prepare for and 1 essay due next week.
i should buckle down, BUT had too many unexpected surprises this weekend.

for starters, saturday was a lovely day out. jetty jumping was initially on the agenda but went ahead with chilling on the boat and tubing down at deep water point with laura, thomas, andy, kim, terry, ben and awhole lotta other people. fish & chips in the park after with laura was too good to pass up. dinner catch up with daphe finally saw my first bite into this infamous flipside burger and gosh it was tasty! chilled out a mrs browns, then kulcha and x-wray for this hip-hop gig. overall i give my saturday 10 toes up and couldnt have had it any other way (sunk into books specifically!)

sunday was just a technology-shit day. my phone decided to commit suicide coz it had enough of me, so spent most of my time trying to revive it to no avail. got off my ass and headed over the harvey norman (which is quite dodgy btw!!) to get myself a new phone, and camera i've been siking myself up to get since i've just been missing too many events and moments for my memory bank. so after a day of IT-frustrations, i am now a proud new owner of a camera and a functioning phone. thanks laura for coming with!! x

had a lovely dinner catch up/hang out at jez and daph's over chicken rice, yummy homemade apple crumble and nip/tuck. which leads on to the big one this week.
after coming home from the supreme's, i slapped on my laptop to check my emails before bed.
and i clicked on one that i still cannot believe.
2 return flight tickets to Kuala Lumpur!!
valid for 6 months of travel from the lovely people of Air Asia Australia!!
I WON!! i actaully won something!!
all i did was go onto their facebook page, 'liked' them and commented on the tab 'to win a free flight' and months later, SURPRISE!
really exciting news and it gives me so much optism to push myself to do as much as i can, because the moment is NOW!!

so look out for my "around asia in 30days" journo prolly starting sometime in November for travels in December/January.
i cannot wait to plan my trip with someone and work every nook and cranny of Asia, bottom up!
couch surf, backpack, the works.
look out world, here I come!!

just gotta keep bouncing back i guess!! xx
won't lie tho, i'm not looking forward to nerd-ing it out this week :/
