ERmm....Karl Kenneddy?? Im really scraping the bottle of the barrel of australian sayings now! :P

Hey, Just a quick update...They've slowed down a bit because im working mon-sat at the moment to get some money together, which has severely limited my fun potential. The week before last I ended up going over the Espy Bar on the saturday night for a few beers, and watched an Irish Punk band, which was pretty cool. A bit like the Dropkick Murphy's. But better.

Lol, it was an interesting night. I had quite a lot of a bottle of Southern Comfort before i went out, so i wouldnt have to buy any drinks. Which sort of worked. I only had one drink whilst I was at the espy, but dropped / knocked over about 4 whilst dancing. So i ended up spending $30 anyways..bugger!

Then on the sunday I got up, and went over to Melbourne Museum...That place is really really cool. Its quite interactive, a bit like the science museum for adults. There was a cool part of it, called Body and Soul, and it was all about the mind, dreams, illusions, the effects of drugs on the mind...loads of stuff. They had these booths with people talking about various problems. There was one quite cool thing, where you see things as coulours. So the Letter 'H' for example would be dark blue, whilst a high C on a guitar would be a...i dont know, fiery orange. So that was pretty good..

Then the last weekend just gone, I went out for a few drinks in the Cherry rock bar, whilst watching an ACDC tribute band (its their 30th anniversary). Got quite a few shots etc brought for me, so i was pretty drunk. Walked the 6-7miles back from town to my hostel, but only sobered up halfway, which. Well. Didnt help. I was like 'what the hell am i doing here? where am i? And how the hell did I get here?.

So that was cool. Then the next day (after spending a large proportion of it in bed recovering from the mother of all hangovers) it was Christmas in July, where the hostel cooked everyone a massive roast dinner, and there was free nibbles, and mulled wine, and beer, and pinatas. It was really good. The roast was DEFINATELY what i needed.

Then yesterday I did the open Mic night again, and won not only an hour on the internet for free (for playing), NOT ONLY a Boost Chocolate bar. NOT! ONLY! free nibbles and punch. But also a ticket for the melbourne film festival. Which is pretty damn cool. Im just about to see what im going to go and see...

So yes, a pretty good week. or two. :)
