We're baaaaack.
Kris and I survived. Actually we did a little better and managed to have a brilliant time. Imagine the best orgasm you've ever had, combine this with the elation you felt post the HSC and you'll know exactly how we felt during the trip.
We were excited to begin with. There was also apprehension and a kind of will-we-kill-each-other fear in the initial plane ride over [yep, all 30 hours of flying and transit], but post the arrival in Dubai, it was smooth sailing.
The weather was cold. YES to everyone whose asked if my toes froze, they did indeed. Several times, because of course there was thawing once we went inside.. and re freezing when we returned outside. There was the building of several snowpeople. Visiting of castles, and palaces. Though the castles were preferred.
I managed to get Kris drunk. No small feat I promise you. But more on that later.. for now, hello twenty-10 and good riddance two-thousand and-nine. For a year littered with moving houses [Binks], discovering cradle snatching [Mon] and finding a full-time job before she graduated [Em] - I think we were all a little happy to see the year pass away.
Last year's resolutions were few in number and I think I achieved each.
1. Be happy.
2. Pass Honours.
3. Save some money atleast!
And the drumroll please..
1. Of Course! Am I anything but?
2. Yep, managed to do a little better then pass, which made my mummy happy =)
3. I saved.. a little. I spent Alot. Ah well.
Which brings me to Twenty-10.
I'll call them goals this year..
1. Be happy.
2. Do one thing everyday that scares me.
3. Buy a manual Barnaby: learn to drive it first.
4. Uni.. try to try a little harder.
5. Learn either fencing or kick boxing.
6. Delve into the wonderful and non-paid world of internships / work experience.
7. Buy the best birthday presents ever.
Granted I do the last one anyway.. the others shall all require some form of effort. Yay! Effort..
In other news, cannot remember if James aka Buffy shirt boy was mentioned previously.. but he was the last friend I made for 2009. This year, the target is to get to 20 new friends before June. All who think I can do this, say Aye! For all who care, last year I managed 11.
Oh yeah, *shakes booty*
As far as the Adventures of Krize go, I shall post and upload images sl-oo-ww-ll-y, because as you all know, Im technologically disadvantaged. And yes, Im still blaming mum for this. We termed them 'adventures' and there are 45 all up I believe.
Not bad for 3 weeks, 9 days of snow, 2 blizzards and one week of non bed sharing. We did good indeed!
Right bloggites, Im off to cook and entertain company.. hope your all non sweaty and relatively cool in this heat.
Today's muddle: Will Twenty-10 be the year that the robots attack?
