The End of It

We had our squash/chess end of season dinner at Wendy's after school today. It was pretty good because for once Aonghas and I got to eat more than a bacon cheeseburger (if that is what it's called!). Awards for Most Valuable Player, Most Improved, etc. etc. will be announced at the end-of-year sports prize-giving dinner, so that will keep most of us squash players/chessies in suspense..apart from me of course! Having won not one chess game, I'm almost certainly out of the running for any award.

Tomorrow will be Phillip's 21st birthday. He used to be my neighbour for 12 years before Zippo moved in. Whoever lives at that house always seem to be great neighbours! Can't say much about the neighbours on other sides of us, especiailly the state house a couple of blocks away! Let's just say...wackybacky...

Open Day

Tonight was the Rutherford College Open Evening, and having been involved with every open evening at school since third form, I couldn't resist taking part in tonight's one too! Originally the Chinese teacher had asked me to help out with the languages department display by cooking some dumplings, even though I don't know how to! After being offered the opportunity to be a tour guide though, I took up the offer.

I've got a friend from Rangeview Intermediate who's coming to Rutherford next year. She originally has a sister at our school. I was going to be her tour guide tonight, expecting her to come around at about 6pm. I took around this girl who's sister won heaps of awards at the Rutherford College prize-giving last year for about half an hour, and then spent the rest of the night welcoming people to Rutherford College at the front door with Mr Edmeades while waiting for my friend to come. By 8pm she still hadn't come, and so i assumed she didn't come at all. When I chatted to her older sister though, she said that she had come at 5pm!


We all got a bit of pizza and a drink for dinner at school tonight which was cool, but of course not the reason why I chose to help out!

RIP Joon

RIP Joon

Sorry guys not the Korean Joon, but our fish Joon died this morning. It was found lying at the bottom of the fish tank. I can assure you that the fish ARE being fed, and the fish tank HAS been cleaned. We even have an air pump and a water filter and other decorative features in the fish tank. There is no explanation for our fish's death apart from it being of natural causes.

Four survivors remain - Rydia, Zippo, Sarena and Hyun. Lucky Hyun!

Happy Happy!

My niece...or great-niece...or something along those lines from my mum's side of the family is getting married! Unfortunately she lives all the way in Hong Kong and will get married in September so there's no way I'll be able to make it there.

She used to play with my brothers and me when we were little, giving us piggy-backs and everything! My big niece all grown up!
