I'm NOT a blog slacker... bleks

For some reason, lately I've been sent constant subliminal reminders of my time in Adelaide. Because of these occurances, my mind is in a constant nostalgic mood, not to mention the fact that I went so far as to look ticket prices up for a return trip there before I jettison of to the UK. Here are some of the reminders that came to me.

First there was the site report update from my old blog, my first blog, which I started on the 28th of June 2004, barely more than a month before I came back to Malaysia for good. It was probably just after my exams were over, the damning exams. It starts as any blog starts, with a blundering introduction, totally unnecessary, but people still put it up. Then come the exam woes, not to mention the arrival of a certain someone who set me up for the big fall. Then came the pre-coming-back-to-Malaysia trip to Malaysia, to surprise my cousins and my grandmother. Then came just about the lousiest feeling I've ever felt, a combination of missing my cousins, and the realisation that I'm leaving Adelaide for good within the month. Sigh.. bad times.

Yesterday I attended a SPCA meeting at Rebecca's house, along with John and Daphne and the rest of them. Rebecca and her husband, I found out yesterday, were from Adelaide, not the city though, the outskirts. She had a touch football at her house, and handling it I remembered the way Birgit Cramer tried to teach us to play Aussie Rules. I had an OK throwing hand, but i couldn't initiate proper contact with that oval rubber shit. Shouldn't call it that, I should be missing it. Ah well, go Adelaide Crows.

Walking to the car from Rebecca's house yesterday, Bibbles promised (I hold you to it!!) that she'd visit Adelaide with me sometime, so that's something to look forward to. At least I didn't waste my time looking up those prices. By the way, Bibbles, pass me the RM2803 for your air ticket as soon as possible, ya? Kekeke...
