Top Secret Clearance and Security checks paperwork completed. PFA left.

Our game against Ashburton seems to be tonight instead of the weekend like usual so off to Thornbury tonight, good thing I dont have work rostered for tomorrow besides some errands.

Spend just under $1000 yesterday, a new pair of Kevlar jeans alone cost $300 ouch. Tomorrow can’t come soon enough, going to be an early start to the day and hopefully a good one by midday.

A beautiful day and I can’t wait for summer when I can go on long rides on similar weather. Two games against Monash University today which were really good except for another dodgy ref decision that cost us a win (two in a row now). I played right Wing and the pitch at Princes Park was alot firmer on the sides that allowed easier movement. Was really confident in several parts of my gameplay and even managed three shots on goal which were all on target but blocked. First one ended 2 – 2 (we were leading 2 – 1 till the soft dubious penalty was awarded) and the second game was a win 3 – 1. On both occasions Monash scored the initial goals but once we had composure it was all up hill.

Got a lucky Elephant present from Caitlin who just returned from India and she had a blast. It’s made from marble and looks really cool, just what I needed for Wednesday.

Lunch with C tomorrow and hopefully get some stuff out of the way this week. Also been having lunch with E the last week or so. Open house was fun. Starting next month I’ll be doing 3 weeks of full time work so looking forward to that.

Tax Return

I went to my personal tax agent yesterday after locating my Group Certificate (an invoice that details the amount of tax and gross from your employer, you get one for each job you hold). Anyway short story is that I’m getting a substantial amount back, roughly double and a bit of what I usually get back each financial year so I’m absolutely thrilled when it gets deposited into my bank account. Hurray for Tax return!

Also trying to finalise a new client with some freelance website work. Traffic this morning was absolutely horrible and I was filtering like crazy too.

I’m back and it was a good time away! An even longer time away since I last posted something as well. Thought I’d mention that I’m currently working on editing the SIVA10 recording I took Saturday night. Seems that everyone wants me to start dancing the guys bit again so I’ll probably end up in a video sometime down the track. Preview and some pictures after the jump! At the end of the night little Phillip decided he wanted to be carried till he slept.

I fall down 7 times, I get up 8. Today was my D-Day.

Let it go,
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don’t you know
The hardest part is over
Let it in,
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain

Let it slide,
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Until you feel it all around you
And i don’t mind
If it’s me you need to turn to
We’ll get by,
It’s the heart that really matters in the end

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain

All of my regret
Will wash away some how
But i can not forget
The way i feel right now

In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists & turns of fate
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away but these small hours
These small hours, still remain,
Still remain
These little wonders
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These little wonders still remain

Damn Flu bug

I wonder who gave me this stupid bug that has caused me to cancel a second shift tonight because I don’t feel 100%. Currently at work doing another shift which was suppose to be a double but that’s now changed – farewell money…

Just found out the new catering company still has Chrissy except now see is one of the owners, that lady sure loves the hospitality industry and I’m guessing that’s how they won the tender contract. They are moving in at the moment and should be all setup by tomorrow to start taking over the work again. I miss Jess.

I hate playing the waiting game.

Sort of sick right now, cancelled my evening shift for the game expo which would have been awesome to do (xbox LAN for Halo 3 and MW2) and instead having a rest in bed. Hopefully I feel better tomorrow since I got work again – need to save up as much cash as possible. What else has been happening?

Toy Story 3

toystory3

Loved it. Thanks for the memories!

Two pretty good solid matches today. Played for the firsts and the seconds again, we were up 1 – 0 but they put in a good second half that led to a 1 – 2 loss for us. Since the games weren’t at home ground the few of us playing both games had to quickly rush to the next one where they were playing about 7 vs 11 for the first 5 minutes or so haha. They went up 2 – 0 in the first half due to some sloppy defence on our part that let unmarked players slot in easy goals. The second half we came out stronger and better and got two goals to get a tie. Both games were very much win able but we just lacked certain key positions due to players on holidays.

Played down the right wing both games and pretty happy with my performance, unfortunately I injured my right ankle in the second half of the second game. I believe next week is a by so I can give it a rest before training again.

Off to watch Toy Story 3 with some people. Would be more excited but I’m pretty tired from today and a part of me can’t help but think & feel dissapointed by someone whos proper response is to avoid again.
