my australia day

ok so i didnt do much australia day...mostly just swam and tried to do as little as possible...
BUT on the monday holiday i caught the new train to mandurah...and boy was i in for a shock!!!
the train was awesome...quiet and fast as anything...but i had no idea the extent of development around rockingham and mandurah...it was incredible to see all the new housing developments along the train line...no wonder we needed a train line...
anyways the train was kool...mandurah has also grown a whole heep since i was there last...and in saying that i cant actually remember when i was there last...i think it was for a picnic with my small group before i went to qld so that must be like 5 years ago...there are so many new buildings and canal developments the whole place was alive and thriving...
we had lunch and went to a ferry ride around the new canals and stuff, saw some dolphines and so other wildlife.
i think the train was an awesome idea!!!
Now though i am faced with the prospect of going back to work next week...
im a chaplain in a local primary school, and as much as i am looking forward to going back to school (mainly cos im bored out of my brain) im also a tad scared...we have a new principle this year and i havent met him yet, i went back to the school today to check in and see if much had changed...my room was just as i had left it and the staff i saw were happy and chatty...so heres praying the year gets off to a smooth start :)

im so bored

thursday night is usually small group night...but its not on so im at home...
i kind of screwed myself into having a boring night cos i went shopping for some new clothes during the day thinking i was goin out tonight and now i cant bring myself to go back to the shops...so what does one do?
tv is a nonevent...theres nothing on...that is to say nothing im interested in....
and so i have very quickly found out that missing small group sucks...
anyways i had a swim and now im typing this blog...its still hot...and its still light outside and the time is 8:10pm (im not a fan of daylight savings)
tomorrow i get to go to one of my jobs...3 days a week i am a primary school chaplain and the other two days i work for an accounting company...so 2moro im goin into the office...i actually like it (well all of it except the work), the receptionist is really kool and its a good change from being at school...and 2moro im goin to wear some of the new clothes i bought today...
wow what a load of junk lol
