Sherlyn's 16th Birthday Parties + Holidays / Sunday, September 24, 2006
The official date of Sherlyn's birthday is the 18th of September, but we seemed to have so many parties. (I know this is a late post, but hey, better late than never. Please take notice, this is LAST holidays)
MONDAYMonday was the last day of stand down and none of us had any exams left, so we crashed her house for an azn bake day (where we did no baking at all!). We had spring rolls from her deep fryer (her very own MacDonalds!) and we were trying to make sushi (as if we hadn't learnt from our last sushi adventure) but sushi just doesn't seem to work for us. We ended up rolling rice and adding seasoning. Still tasted awesome though!
It was also Stephen Chou movie day, and we watched Sixty Million Dollar Man. I love Stephen Chou's older films, classical him. And we watched Undercover Brother. Not something I would usually watch but really funny (if not a little strange but what isn't nowadays).
We had a mini contest of who could throw random tennis balls over the huge wall next to Sherlyn's tennis court, and a mini competition of a game of ball throwing that Liv made up on the spot. Not even she knew what the point of it was so after a while we went back inside to play Hide The Penis. Really, we come up with all these strange games. Hide The Penis is essentially someone draws a penis on a piece of paper, and someone else has to really quickly draw it into something else so it doesn't look like a penis. The person who can't is either the most uncreative or the most dirty-minded because they can't see it as anything else but a penis. Seems I was both because I couldn't do it, heh... Before the party disassembled we had a game of I Never, which was some people sitting on the floor or at a table with 10 fingers down. Someone starts the game by saying for example "I never have been bungee jumping" and whoever has been takes a finger away and you lose when all your fingers are out of the game. In other words, it's a game to see who's the most boring person :P
THURSDAYLast day of school, at morning tea we all brough some food and shared it around. Then at lunchtime we showed her the secret movie we made.
FRIDAY
Yet ANOTHER birthday party! This time, it was ice-skating at Acacia Ridge (that's almost an hour by bus). Even Bob came!!! Ice-skating was rather fun, but the rink was strangely not cold, and since we were the first ones in the session, the ice completely smooth. I stacked it about 5 times in the first 5 minutes! Now i've got bruises and grazes all over my arms and knees. Most of us were over skating in about an hour, so we spent heaps of time taking photos.
Afterwards we went back to her place and burnt her art. Olivia and Sherlyn have the same art teacher that they both equally hate especially because she's racist against us azns X( And she didn't like her art so we burnt the whole damn lot in her tennis court. Bob had to go, then we watched another movie and Chris and I went home, and everyone else slept over.
Sunday
It was Charlene's birthday party this time at K. It wasn't that fun because most of the people there I didn't know so I mostly just sat and watched. Afterwards they went to play pool, and Liv and I walked around the empty car park. We found a park nearby and stuffed around for a little bit, but it was a little creepy because of all the trees around and it was really dark. We found two shopping trolleys at the top of the car park, I jumped in one of them and Liv pushed me to the other end. Then I got off and tried to get Liv in the other one but she wouldn't so I jumped in again. But this time halfway across the lot she let go and the whole trolley nearly flipped when it hit the edge of the pavement. Crazy child.
Monday
We had another bake day (this time we actually baked) at Olivia's house with us two and Chris. We bought the ingredients at Woolworths plus that Sara Lee cake mix I think it was, and made lunch and dessert ^__^ The pasta was delicious, but I'm still not quite sure why we bought a pizza base, since all we did was put cheese on it, and it turned out really bad too. But the cake was super yummy!!! @^_^@
Wednesday
I met Eric and we strolled around the city and Botanical Gardens, chatted and caught up. It's really nice spending time with people you don't see often and just laze the day away. We had pancakes *drool* and ice cream!!
Thursday
Went over to Chris' house to update myself on some Naruto and Bleach. And we made pancakes!! They didn't turn out 100% ^^"....but we ate them anyway XD
Saturday
I had Chinese school and guzheng again, and I went home myself this time, stopping by the city and played some DDR with Pasky. When I got home I realised...I forgot my key. I sat outside my house for about half an hour, and my mum wouldn't pick up her phone. Left with no choice, I ran Ann, who lived in the suburb next to me, but she wasn't home, so I rang Sherlyn who lived in another suburb next to me. Luckily, she was home so I walked the 25mins to her house. I love free-loading at her house because it's so rich XDXD We ate, bummed around on the computer, I did her Chinese school homework for her but it wasn't hard and I was free-loading after all XP and we watched another Stephen Chou movie. It was around 9 when I was certain my mum had forgotten I existed and was ready to go to sleep at Sherlyn's place that my mum rang back. Of all days, she had forgotten her phone that day X_X
Sunday
Another bake day!! (we're all going to be fat -.-) At my house this time. Using real ingredients instead of a baking mix. We downloaded a recipe for sponge cake off the internet and went out shopping. It was pretty fun making the cake, and it went all nicely until we got to the bit when it said hand-mix, but it wouldn't mix properly so we used the electrical mixer again. BIG MISTAKE The whole mixture flopped back down, no matter how hard we tried to save it. And then another crisis, my oven wouldn't work!! So we had to drive over to Olivia's house to use her oven. But it turned out yummy anyway ^_^
Monday+Tuesday
Just worked. They put me on a long shift pricing stock. It was my first long shift, so I didn't know when to break. I was hungry, but everyone was still working...so I kept on working too ^^ It was almost the end of my shift when they let me out for lunch break.
Wednesday
Chris and I met Pasky in the city and we bummed around for a bit, taking passport photos for Chris. They turned out really scary T_T And we annoyed a shop owner of a hat store by trying on all these hats and taking photos but not buying anything XP
Thursday
Habourtown ahoy! Chris, Weldon, Olivia and I went to Habourtown to go shopping. I didn't end up buying anything, but it was fun all the same ^_^
Sunday
There was an IT conference in QUT (a university) and Olivia, Sherlyn and I were part of it. The teachers made us think it was really big, but it was only a small meeting. We ran out of time, so we didn't get to say all that we needed to. But we all got free bags and pens!!!
Monday
And term IV begins T_T
Hopped!
