Farewell 2005!

Well the end of the year is nearly here, its been an interesting year (that I can remember) as it went so damn quick!

The first 6 months were pretty much a blur but that was probably mainly due to the fact that it was repetitive a lot of the times.

From June onwards it was a different story, the top 5 things to happen in no particular order were:

1. Going to Malaysia, it was an amazing place and the people were great (and not to forget the shopping). It was a worth while trip that I didn’t want to end but being away from work does that to you!

2. The decision to take up salsa which I know I have probably mentioned too many times already but something that I look forward to every week, I have met so many amazing people through salsa and some that I would rather forget as well.

Last week was funny as one of the girls that usually helps out mentioned that I was the only guy in the class that wasn’t creepy, gee what a compliment! But then I sorta realised what she was talking about and I really had to agree.

3. Selling the block! Well it only took about 4 months to happen but It did finally sell (yay) and by selling it I was able to have a substantial deposit for my own place (just waiting on loan approval right now, then its house hunting).

4. Buying the Commodore, as much as I loved the Lancer it was slowly degrading (well it was 8yrs old). I still miss driving it around but don’t miss the hassles.

5. Our last Christmas at our house, with the folks building there new house it was great to have all the family around to celebrate it for the last time at the house that really is my home.

Well next year really is going to be the beginning of a new era, my own place (somewhere), Turning 30 (although I would rather stay 29), hopefully finding the woman of my dreams (unless I have already met her?!?!), umm pretty much living life to the fullest!

So for the final time this year it’s a big CHEERIO to you all, have a absolute mad new year, drink lots and partay hard! :p

December

Howdy all!

Well time flys when your having fun or just plain busy, once again another year has flown past and we are nearing towards the end of 2005. Must say that I really cant remember where the year went, but the last 6 months have definately been fun or should I say interesting!

From the trip to Malaysia to the drama of selling the lancer, it sure hasnt been boring! But thats what life is all about, what will be sad is that this is the last year that I will be spending xmas at my parents house as they will be moving down south when there new house is built. There are alot of memories in the old place but it will be good to visit the folks in there new house as its only 5 minutes from the beach (hella sweet).

So it will be one xmas day to remember, no doubt a lot of alcohol will be drunk that day. New Years is another thing but I really have not made a decision on what to do yet, have a couple of invites but will wait till later before i make a decision.

Salsa has been getting better mainly because Im getting Better!!! having time away didnt help so putting in some hard work now thats for sure. And also meeting some very lovely ladies at the same time (sorry but i had to mention it). Guys, if you want to meet women and the pub/club scene is not you then take up dancing lessons!

I do have to say a BIG congratulations to my good friends Nathan and Michelle on the arrival of there first child Ashley Paige, look forward to catching up with you guys soon.

I went and saw The Brothers Grimm last night and it was ok, nothing really special so I would recommend that you wait till the DVD comes out to watch it, also yesterday I managed to obtain a copy of Orgazmo (from the creators of South Park), this is hell funny and is a must if you like there other movies Team America and BASEketball.

Oh yeah also if your stuck for xmas present ideas just think DVD!
