AFL

An dem einen Samstag hat Ryan einen Anruf bekommen um 4 Uhr nachmittags und Tickets für das AFL (Australian Football League) Spiel um 6 bekommen. Da ich das noch nie live miterlebt habe im Stadium haben wir doch gleich mal zugesagt. Die Tickets waren für den Priority Cricket Club und wir mussten uns dementsprechend auch schick anziehen.


Something funny...
- I love going to gym and finishing it up with a nice hot sauna
- I made the chefs at my work laugh after they asked me to show where to apply cooling spray and I only stood there with opened hands and not saying a word hoping I would just get the can handed over without any more questions.....not....details were requested- DOOO
- walkind backwards is not one of my strengths I suppose ;)
- sitting was not very pleasant for a few days
AUTSCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That bloody hurt a LOT!!!!
how everything began

The other weekend, Michelle from Cairns was down here in Brissi. For those who don't remember, so for probably all of you ;) she was the first social contact I made when I first came to Oz in August 2005. Through I slipped into the whole Volleyball scene and made heaps and heaps of friends up in tropical Queensland. We just chilled, went shopping and indulged with some chips, crackers, cheese and wine. Was really good to see her since I don't make it up to Cairns very often, unfortunately :(

22 am 22ten
My actual birthday was not a big deal because I worked a morning shift and went to uni after. BUT at night, Ryan and me we went to a restaurant that only sells desserts, yummy aaaaas :-P I had dumplings made of a doughnut-like dough, filled with melt white chocolate and berries, covered in table sugar, served with a hot chocolate sauce to pour and finished with chocolate ice cream surrounded by berry compot. (I am good in presenting meals, always have to present our specials of the night to the guests...it's all about making it sound nice even if it's only seems to be a fish with potato and sauce..haha) Oh my God, that was so god. Didnt have dinner that night cos the dessert was expensive already and I wouldnt have been able to concentrate on savoury knowing that THAT was coming :) So we skipped it. I should have taken a photo, it looked just beautiful with the super fancy decoration and stuff.
The following saturday I had my actual party. We had Australia's biggest Raclette, which must be true indeed since Ryan and my friend Martha are very likely the only owner of that funny european thing nobody can pronounce properly, they say it with that big american aRRRR.
Sara, her sister Hayley and me chopped and prepared like worldchampions (such a german expression...wie die weltmeister....egal)
When everybody was there, I gave everybody one "Pfännchen" / pan (nearly worked out with two raclettes and 20 ish people) and gave a demonstration (felt like the chefs on TV) Initially they were bit hesitant but in the end the spot around the table was worth gold.
I made it like a snack thing so that you dont sit down but grap stuff from all the table and walk around.
So much food and so much got eaten though AND so many satisfied faces and hands resting on full bellies.
Then the lights got switched off and they surprised me with a cake, Wunderkerzen und a Happy birthday, very nice =)
Once the food settled, the jelly shots came out. I had 5 or 6 because everybody wanted to have one with me and I felt good, not bad at all. Must have been all the food, soaking up the alcohol.
Few drinks later, we got a cab and headed towards the city. I got a real fancy free cocktail in one of the bars, free drinks from my friends...I think you get the picture, I was provided with enough booze and yet I wasnt overly drunk at all. Everybody tried hard cos they never see me drunk, well I am not super drunk, and wanted me loose but I stayed under control- hehe....
We danced and partied till half past four. Pretty good effort considering we started at six. It was so much fun, such a good night!
The next morning I woke up and fet superbe...maybe I am not getting old yet ;) But I also forced myself to drink two pints of water and took some vitamin C. Yeah but very surprised, I do not get hangovers, yay. Was quite handy cos there was a fair bit to clean up.
