4. POST A PICTURE OF YOURSELF

Went to The Carols In The Domain yesterday. Jane and I caught a train down to Sydney (having to change a couple of times), and then met Bonnie there at about 11:30. Bonnie's family was there, along with three of Bonnie's sister's friends. We had a prime position- we were about ten meters back from the reserved section (which is right infront of the stage), and just off center to the left. It was a perfect spot.

A couple of times the weather was dicey. It started raining, and we had to huddle under umbrellas after they made us put our tent down. But it cleared up quickly, after only a small drizzle. Bonnie, Jane and I wandered around the city a bit, but most of the time we just hung around our small little area, talking and chatting with Bonnie's sister and her friends. We saw repeates of Humna Nature, The Young Divas, and Guy Sebastian's viedo clips, where we realised that it was one big event to subliminally send us iPod advertisments.

The event was really fun. Could you see us on TV- we were the ones in the crowd shot holding a candle :P. We kinda went a bit immature (such as making jokes about Erica Hey-nuts and about 'me MiG'), but it just made it all the more enjoyable. We danced to The Wiggles (the new yellow wiggle was good, hopefully they still do well), and there was a really lovely tribute to Belinda Emmett. Some people had 'illegal chairs', there was that wonderful smell of burning plastic, and we all sang our heart outs, to the carols we knew and the carols we didn't know. The fireworks were rockin' (as all fireworks are), even though they scared the bats.

It finished at about quarter to eleven, and Jane and I had to leave straight away to catch the twenty past eleven train from Central Station. The trip to Central took a little longer then we expected, and after sprinting through the station we thought we were just going to make it. Instead, we missed it by about five minutes- it actually came at at twelve past eleven! So we waited around the station for an hour for the next one, and didn't end up getting home till about two-thirty.

But all in all, it was a really good night. I'm glad I went. Today I woke up and I have a really bad headache, and I have to do the assignmnet part of my Drama assessment, which kinda sucks, but I'll live.
