GC trip
I'm really really tired, exhausted.... So i'll make this short. I'm serious. I just got back last night at 9pm. We had dinner together in the city, it's the first time i've had rice in ages. Alex and Jonathan didn't join us though. They went home for dinner. Alex wanted 3 bowls of maggi and Jonathan's sister was cooking dinner... I haven't had a home cooked meal in ages either... I mean i have cooked for myself but not a home cooked meal... cos i can't cook.
Anyways, i'm in the library now and it's 4.15pm. The library closes at 5pm. So i'll be leaving soon after i get this done. Just want to keep my parents informed and i want to get this out of the way before all the assignments and essays pour in.
Tuesday night- I pack as much as i can while watching the TV and sleep at 1am. Somehow i wasn't excited about the trip. Don't know why. But i knew it was gonna be fun.
Wednesday morning, we met at Hungry Jacks in the city. Then we walked to Central Station. I had my pouch on my waist and my back pack on my back which was light cos i only put in my camera and video camera and i was pulling along my bag with my clothes and stuff, it's the type of bag businessmen/women use... You know... the type that has wheels and is compact enough to take around for a 2-day trip? My dad gave this to me... It came in handy. Anyways, it was funny pulling that thing around. And i got laughs out of the gang when we gathered at HJ.
Martha and Sonia decided not to join us for the trip. Something about not having enough money or something so in the end it was only us KK people. Which we did not realise till we all gathered. So we departed at 12.30pm even though we all got there at 11.50am cos we had to wait for Adam so we missed the first train at 12.05pm. But no biggie, we were on holiday, we had all the time in the world. But somehow Shairah was in a bad mood that morning, she had this sour face... I hate it when there are mood killers... especially on a holiday. I guess it was cos things weren't how she planned it and according to her bro she hates it when things don't go as SHE planned. So i avoided talking to her. We were the only 2 girls and the other 5 were guys- Raimi, Adam, Jonathan, Sherman and Alex. We arrived at the train station and took a bus but didn't get off where we were supposed to so we kind of overshot and ended up at Southport and there's a long story here about Shairah's mood but i'll give you the short one- she saw that we passed Surfers Paradise but didn't say anything cos Raimi and i didn't say anything about getting off and later on the bus when we said "next stop we'll get off" and we did, we found out we had overshot, so in a way she was complaining that we took them the wrong way and kept saying "let's take a cab(those maxi taxis that would be able to take all 7 of us)" But i disagreed and so did Raimi so she also had an attitude cos we didn't take up her ideas. Anyways, no biggie. I paid for a map at Southport so i could navigate and get us out of the mess we were in. In the end everything turned out ok and we checked in at around 3.30pm. None of us had had lunch yet so after checking in we walked around the central area looking for food... we were so hungry, especially Adam and I and still somehow were really picky about finding a restaurant or fast food joint. In the end Raimi, Adam, Sherman and I had the Mega Feast meal at KFC and the rest ate somewhere else in a food court at 4 something pm. Then we bought groceries at Coles and booze at BWS. We split the costs by 7 of course. That night we got drunk. Most of us... I puked and Jonathan puked... I hadn't puked in such a long time that it was fine... Sherman helped both of us out in the toilets, i might have been puking a lot but i still knew what was going on. Jonathan would use the toilet bowl while Sherman would put me in bed but then 5 mins later i'd be like,"Sherman i need to puke again" and he'd come running from where ever he was and watch me puke and help out by giving me water and a towel to wipe my face and stuff... Then Jonathan would come again while Sherman put me in bed and then the cycle kept going... It was fun. I'm not saying puking was fun, i meant that i had fun that night. It was crazy. And like i said before, i hadn't puked in so long it felt like nothing... So mom, i know what you're thinking but i wasn't suffering or anything. It just came... so i just puked... no biggie.
Next morning i woke up on the couch with a pillow under my head and a blanket on me... Sherman's doing. Thanks to him i didn't catch a cold. Raimi was on the other couch. The rest were in bed. It was 7am when i woke up. I didn't have a hang over but i had to sit a while before i stood up. I took this opportunity to take pictures of everyone asleep but Jonathan was awake then so he's the only one that wasn't asleep in the pic. I'll post them up soon. I wondered when Shannon would message me cos he told me the previous night when i was still sober that they'd be going to Movieworld that day and he'd message me so we(Jonathan and I, the rest weren't interested or didn't have enough money) could join them. But it didn't happen. So i set the alarm for 8.15am assuming they'd depart by then and Shannon would message or call.
I'll continue the story soon. Tomorrow i guess. It's 5 mins to 5pm and so the library's closing soon. Got to go...

oh ohh... 1st day gone doing nothing, im wondering what did you do on the 2nd and third day. And yeah, i hate party poopers too. thats why i chose my friends carefully to follow me to GC. They were a great bunch, cuz we usually decide as a group and not by one head.
+ they usually go" up to you" " you decide" " anything is fine" "uh.. dunno you decide" well when anything goes and I decide, so as my plan. Lol. So yeah, go with people that are free flows... you'll enjoy their company more. =)
TIP: or go with people who can't make up their minds.. that way you can go where ever you want to go!!
*laughs*
