May the Fourth be with you

May the fourth be with you,, happy birthday to me , happy birthday to me.

Well hello again everyone.

What can i say? the weekend has been great. Friday was my birthday and i had a really good day, went out for dinner in the evening and had a merry old time. thankyou kaylene, loui, loui, cameron and claudia for the great australia presents, Nan for the really amusing card, Sara and Matt for the other very funny card, Nanna Beck and Stephen for the great card and much needed undies and jumper, and mum and dad for the card and sending all that stuff for me... On saturday i had a few friends around for dinner and movie at the flat, it was a good night and almost a second birthday for me which was great. we sat and watched a few movies and all was good.

then sunday came around, a great day i left home just after 7am to get into town to be able to buy my ticket and be ready to catch the bus for 9:45 am to vienna... got on the bus without hassle and got to vienna airport at around 10:50am.. Unfortanetly Sara's plane got in at 1:15pm,, so i had to endure just over two ours in vienna airport, and at 5 euro's for a coke, which is the equillivent of around $8 australian.. lol, i had to limit my drinking.

Finally 1:15 rolled around and i picked a jet lagged, yet hyper active sister up from the gates. it was so great to see a family member after such a long time. after picking her up we went and had lunch in the airport at the resturant they had there, it cost around 18 euros for each meal so it was quite expensive, but otherwise we wouldnt have eaten until around 4 or 5 pm, so since we had to wait for the bus anyway we decided we may as well eat.

I must say the trip back from vienna to home with sara had a lot less problems and stress than my inital trip to devin. this was probably because i knew what had to be done and am used to the city and the trip so i was easily able to make my way home this time, which was really good, i was able to get sara home before the jet lag really set in and she was able to relax and sleep in comfortable surroundings.

the only downside to the whole journey was that we stopped at tesco to by sara a quilt and a pillow. somehow we managed to buy her a normal size pillow which was good, (Slovak pillows are huge) but the downside was that we bought her two pillows, we thought that in the packet it was a quilt, but no it was two huge pillows, so for the last two nights i have given my quilt to my sister as she needs it more than me, i dont feel the cold as much now, and i have slept under sheets. today we plan to go and buy some things which will make living slightly easier...

Her first plan of action yesterday morning was to re arrange the layout of my flat, the bugger had been here less than 24 hours and already she was changing things, now we have a layout of three chairs in the corner looking at a coffee table and the cupboard that the laptop sits on to watch programs and dvds on. And the beds are in the oppostie corners of the rooms with a desk and cupboards near them... i must admit though, it does look alright.

Yesterday we had sports day at school, it was an alright day but very strange, it wasnt an athletics carnival but just a day when kids got to play there crazy dodgeball game, skip, climb and run a relay, very strange combination of sports, but hey it was alright.. except i had to refferree their strange dodgeball game, which is really hard to understand, there are so many rules that it is hard to keep up and understand the game,,, really really weird, so strange that i cannot even begin to comprehend trying to explain to you the complexity of the game on a mere medium such as this, the explination requires gestures and facial expressions which i cannot convey here. will tell about it when i get back..

anyway thats my rant for the moment,, about to go shopping with my sister (this should be fun!) anyway i am off, cya all later,

play hard,

but try and keep safe

dont use slovak hospitals

THIS IS MY HOUSE,, I AM UNDER THAT TOP BALCONY YOU CAN SEE, THE BBQ IS ON THE GARAGE.
