had a lazy day watching Summer Heights High- a hilarious Australian comedy which is set on a high school and focuses on three characters which is all done by the same guy- Chris Lilley. My favourite character is Mr G. The drama teacher, and I really want to see his production of IKEA; The Musical! The other two characters are Ja'Mie, who is a girl on a school swap from a private school, and Jonah, a naughty Islander kid. Flo made up a breakfast of banana, m...

It wasn't as sunny as it has been recently, so I went to look round the remaining part of the ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image) I hadn't yet looked at. Along the way I discovered a 'gingerbread village' which was raising money for The Last Wish Foundation. It was pretty impressive, especially the gingerbread version of Luna Park and the Footy Stadium. The last part of the 'Screen Worlds' exhibition was a lot more fun than the first part (the fir...

There was talk of going for a barbeque, but since we left the beach quite late, and the second taxi didn't come for a long time, it was quite late by the time we got to Ed and Danny's, so we all brought burritos from Zambrero's in the shopping mall that's pretty much over the road for them.

I realised I had quite a few chores I wanted to do today, before starting work later, so went into town to the library so that I could print something off and download a new album I had brought (I had tried back at the house but the internet was being very slow and kept cutting off). However the internet kept cutting off there as well, so I went to the Mexican restaurant in Balaclava to use theirs and try the corn on the cob Amanda's work friend had been saying...
