Just finished Harry Potter 7! It was so good but now I'm sad as there will never be another new one to read!

Melbournian adventures
After my plane was delayed for 2 hours because of fog, I finally made it to my friend Nicola’s house at 7pm (where Sarah was waiting.) We drove to Cobden, Victoria, which is a small country town, and stayed at Nadine’s dairy farm. Although it was only meant to take 2 and ½ hours, we got a little lost and it ended up taking 5 hours!
Nads with two little calves that were born the first morning we were there.
Cobden is near the great ocean road so we went to port campbell, a gorge and blowhole and also to the twelve apostles
Sarah, me, Nads and Nicola
Sarah and I at the twelve apostles (now about 8 left)
After leaving Nadine's,we spent two and 1/2 days in Melbourne. We shopped, visited the art gallery, ate, caught up with Rob and Emily (the two head leaders on our Cambodia team), went to the hospital (as Nicola had bad asthma), had a sukako at Max Brenner's (chocolate and milk melted by a candle), went to st kilda (v.cool cake shops there) and went to Luna Park to ride a roller coaster! The roller coaster actually broke down while we were on it( about 30 metres from the end) and they had to push us back... quality rides :)
A photo we took to prove we were at Luna Park but unfortunately we missed the background.
Melbourne was lots of fun! I highly recommend going there, although I'm sure most of you have been there lots already (I hadnt been there since I was 13!)
Well have a good week!!!

For some reason I cant seem to add a title. Anyway...
This week has been far better (measured by the level of business) than the previous: (NB Most of the dot points aren’t actually things I’ve done)
• I've become a little bit of the fitness freak. I’ve been a member of Zest since November 2006 and kind of haven’t used my membership to its full potential so I got a free week pass for my friend, Jo and we’ve been going almost everyday which has been awesome fun! I especially loved AQUA FITNESS… how cool; you get to exercise in a heated indoor pool. Since I’ve never lived in a house with a pool, being in a pool just makes me so excited!
• I got a job or two. Well I got offers for two jobs (run fitness classes with primary classes and the other as after school cricket care person which is really driving someone to cricket and home and cooking etc). These jobs sound great (I'm very keen to never work in retail again after the jewelery store job) and would make my bank balance smile a little but I have to make sure I can work them okay around uni as the dates and times still have to finialised. Hopefully if everything goes to plan, I’ll have three jobs then.
• I got powderfinger/ silverchair tickets!!
• I leave for Melbourne tomorrow arvo til sat night
Well that’s my update for this week. Have a good week guys!!!
