Killing time today

Killing time today - cricket

Some say that cricket is a dull sport. On most occasions I would disagree... Cricket is a gentleman's sport and watching someone you know play can be very entertaining. It also allows you an emotional pipeline into the game - you get excited when they bowl a wicket, or make a great catch or hit a four! It's exciting.

Watching on an international level is wicked too!! In the past 3 months I have had some great times with some great girls, watching australia play ODI's and Twenty20 matches. It's just the culture of it- you get pulled into it. The beer, the wine, the food, the cheers, the Mexican waves, the beach balls flying about and getting confiscated by security. It really is just a great time.

Why don't the local leagues pick up there game a little. Haha.

I'm sitting here with my best friend Alysha (such an awesome chick I'll have to dedicate a whole post to how much I love and respect that chick - watch this space) watching her boyfriend Matt play the grand final match... Yes I may be blogging at the same time but that is entirely irrelevant. The first time made 180 runs... It's time to chase boys.

Up the mighty redbecks!!

Euro Adventures Pt 12 - Driving The Day Away, To Venice We Go

Sometimes I cannot believe I am on this tour, living this lifestyle, I never thought I would be able to handle it... My body may be telling me that I can't. But I will still power through! This is one of those days - one of those days where I need to power through, buck up, not be a princess and suck up the massive pain in my tailbone and endure a long day in a bus... But at least at the end we will be in one of my favourite places in the world, Venice! Already on our 11th day... 11 days away from our jobs, from our families, from our boyfriends, it's been hard, but we have tried to make every day as fun as we can - even the drive days, and this one was a long one - we did, however, have one notable stop... Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene,from ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. Today we were able to stop in Verona, where the famous play Romeo and Juliet was based. It was nothing like ...

Euro Adventures Pt 7 - The Medieval Town of Avignon

Today we head off to the town of Avignon today - one of the oldest medieval towns in France. It houses the only other home of past Popes other than the Vatican. We are lucky enough to have been arriving the same day as the popular Avignon Festival which happens every July and is a massive performing arts festival. We had a long 6-7 hour drive to reach our hostel - it was a really bumpy and windy drive so I found myself feeling very ill, we stopped for a picnic lunch and were very surprised to find the strangest squat/drop toilets I have ever seen before in my life... In Australia we have long drops... But we have nothing like this. I was going to give it a try for the sake of this blog but I chickened out. I took a picture too... After a long hot drive and a couple of toilet stops we finally arrived at our hostel - WHICH HAD A POOL!!! Noddy gave us an hour and a half of free time before we headed into the old city of Avignon. Alysha and I were straight into that pool - so re...

Friends are the family you choose - choose wisely

Sometimes we get lucky and someone comes into your life and changes you forever. I have been blessed to have many people come into my life and make a massive impact on who I am as a person, I don't plan to ever let those people go - or for that matter, make sure they always know how much they mean to me! Babycakes - my bestie, met this girl while working at a golf club and we instantly clicked! She tells it like it is and doesn't put up with your shit. She is also one of the most kind hearted, generous and absolutely gorgeous girls I have ever met. She has helped me through some very dark times in my life and motivates me everyday to be a better version of myself. She is a pillar of strength in my long standing battle with obesity for which I will never be able to thank her for. I don't know how she will survive four weeks in Europe with me but I can't wait to explore the world with her. Millzdawwwggg, soulmate, realestate buddies, this chick! My sister from another ...

From this moment on
