Footy match

The phone rang at 9.30am. I didn't recognise the number so I ignored it. Back to lala-land. At about noon, the phone rang again. The first one was a number which I didn't recognise as well so I ignored it. The second call was from VAC. I answered that called. I was informed that the interview would have to be pushed back to next week as the volunteer coordinator wouldn't be free this week as she just came back from MC.

Went to the city to meet up with the rest of my uni mates. As they were still at the asian grocery shop, I decided to have my brunch instead. Went over to this shop over at King Street and had a burger and a taco. It was nice. Quite liked it so I intend to go back there again some day to try out the other items in their menu. I really thank V for introducting that place to me and guiding me so patiently over the phone from where I was to the shop. Walked over to DFO at Spencer street thereafter and met up with Faezah, XY, PY, Toto, Nicholas and Felicia (from Menzies). Walked around for about slightly more than an hour. I didn't buy anything - which is something good.

We went to watch a footy match over at the Melbourne Criket Ground and Nicolaas joined us together with the 2 jap girls. The admission ticket to the match cost A$20.30. We were not eligible for concessions as we were international students. The entry gantries were very high tech though. You just have to scan the bar code printed on the ticket which was purchased, and the fare gates would let you in. Saves lots of time as well and you get to keep the full ticket as nothing's being torn out from your ticket. We were at the forth level and it really looked scary as that was almost near to teh top of the building. On a brighter note, the place where we sat was actually the winning team, so it was rather cheerful and it actually made my day. In fact, I would say that today would be one of the better days from the rest of the week.

Went straight home after the match. Watched High School Musical 2 on my laptop and it was great. Tears just flowed out from my eyes towards the ending as it was such a nice show and kinda touching. My friend who's signed on for 10 years with the Navy's regretting it now and wishes to break the bond after 5 years. I seriously hope that he'll be very much all right and not mentally affected as my heart really went out to him as we were chatting.

Things and situations can be the same every year or they can be different. It doesn't take much to make a difference. People can make a difference and they can make one's situation different. It all depends if one is willing to open him or herself up and just go along with the flow, like a river. I believe that I can be the change, but again, if the door's closed, nothing can be done and it'll be the same, year after year.

Goodnight!
