hmmms, been a while ay...
So much has happened! and the Olympics have finally finished... okay, so not that much has happened in my life, but it has for everyone else in the world..

How good did Australia go?! 4th overall! such a top effort from everybody who participated to make a thoroughly enjoyable Olympics. I am now a huge fan of track cycling! After watching Ryan Bayley go around the track, the Madison race and the excellent Phil Liggett commentating, the excitement of all the events, not just Australians, showed what a great sport cycling is.

This now means that I have no excuse for not doing uni work! Shocking ay, the Olympics pretty much consumed my life for 1.5 weeks, haha. See you in 4 years Beijing (with the coverage filled with wonderful asian cliches no doubt, yipppeeee)

hmmm, anywys, the weekend just gone... I went to Katoomba! For the Credo Eng & IT faculty getaway/retreat/watever you want to call it. and it was very cool.. except for the closure of the great stairway at the 3 sisters... I didn't know it had been closed for some time due to a landslide, shame really, I've never climbed it, would have been awesome.. At the cottage that we stayed at, there was a fireplace... and it was great, cos I love... ahem... tending fires... hehehe... When I ever get a house of my own, I want a fireplace!!.. hehe

I think that will be...umm...#4 on my list of things to get when I'm married and moved out... (I will document all of these things later, I've been talking about them to my family for some time now, hehe)
with #1 being an Espresso coffee machine, 16 bar+, Gaggia preferably... mehehe

I will attempt to keep plugging away at this as often as possible, but it maybe hard in the next few weeks due to big fat assignment, joyjoy!
