New Adventures 13th - 19th

Thursday is new adventures day, so here we go.

Thursday

Thursday was a good day. Justin was going away for a few weeks to visit his lady friend [Hello Melissa] so we decided to go out for the evening and just hang out. Take The State have played at a little restaurant called 'Cafe Sophia' a few times, and on Thursdays they used to have rock night where a rock band plays so we decided to head out there. When we got there we found that management had changed and as a result rock night had turned into free jazz night. It was cool though, listening to guys jam some jazz, and some of the tunes they played were awesome, others less great.

Thereafter we headed over to Pierre's house for a hub and some Guitar Hero. I didn't play because I'm super bad, but everyone had a good time.


Friday

Friday was a great day, I went through to get my car fixed and thereafter my mom and I went shopping. I've been challenged of late to improve my eating habits and actually not try to kill myself with the amount of junk food I consume. I got a ton of salad stuff, veggies and a whole pile of tuna and sardines for salad variations. I'm looking forward to doing some cooking and all that jazz.

In the evening we were going to go to Eye of Horus but ended up going through to Pierre's flat again. Gareth rented a movie but we didn't actually watch it because we were watching a BRILLIANT show entitled 'Flight of the Conchordes'. If you haven't seen I seriously urge you to do your best to get hold of it. It's awesome.

I also lit up my first hub, which was quite an experience and lots of fun. I had watermelon flavour, which was fun, and later we had a flavour called 'Silver Fox'. It's got a really clean, minty type flavour with a touch of liquoric and it's great.


Saturday

Saturday was a pretty 'boring' day. I went over to Gareth's house in the afternoon and we watched some football, Manchester United took Stoke out 5 - 0, and Liverpool beat Bolton 2 - 0. Later in the evening Chelsea beat West Brom 3 - 0, which was actually a bit of a disappointing performance, because they should have won closer to 5 - 0. That evening we started a fire and just hung out.


Sunday

Sunday was a bit of a rough day. I had some bad news in the evening from a friend, he's having a rough time and things aren't going to get better any time soon. Not great...


Monday

Monday was a bit hectic too, I had to have a chat with my parents about the family and all that, and it went ok but it was draining. I guess it went ok but never fun having to take people on.


Tuesday

Tuesday evening was pretty mellow. We we going to DOTA at Matt's house but he got caught up at Women's ministry, so Gareth and I ended up drinking coffee at my place.


Wednesday

I went over to Matt's house at 2, and Donovan, Gareth, Matt and I played DOTA for about 6 hours. It was quite an experience. It's quite an interesting game, which is a cross between an RPG and a strategy, and it has quite a few different items and combinations which make it very interesting.

It was only my first game but it was fun nevertheless.

After that Gareth and I went over to Pierre's flat to hang out. Today is his birthday, so we stayed until midnight and wished him happy birthday. It was really great. We didn't do anything special, but rather just hung out and had a great chat. It is really awesome to know you have a good friend who actually cares about what is going on about you and your life. Anyway, Friday is his party, so it's going to be awesome.
