Relay For Life
I don't think I have told anyone that we, yes, DEET Financial Services are doing something called "Relay for Life". Basically we are raising money for the Cancer Council of the Northern Territory. We are doing fun things such as raffles, 50's clubs, selling drinks etc, and so on and so fourth. The 'Relay' we are participating in is pretty much an all night event where people from our 'team' walks around an oval continuously (taking it in turns ofcourse). I think it's for a pretty good cause, so I volunteered to do my rostered hour (or thereabouts) at 10am in the morning, as then I would only have to wait one hour until the relay was over (because it finishes at about 12noon!!). I don't particularly want to spend the night on an oval (yes, year 12 muck up day was enough for me!!! Damn those mozzies!!).So, today we are having a lunch, where people have donated food and we are charging people who want to come to the lunch $10.00 to raise yet more money. The absolute great thing about this affair is that our team 'leader' had a great idea and now we are all wearing the VERY PURPLE relay shirts for the lunch. I can honestly say that the 'small' shirt is very BIG and I look like a purple people eater. I feel like an idiot wearing such a shirt and I can't wait to take it off. I think I bought a shirt this colour when I was about 14 and even then, I only wore it for a little while because I guess I realised what a mistake it was..............purple shirts guys, PURPLE shirts!!!
What on earth were they thinking??
Where they thinking??
We are going for a Hawaiian theme and we have those grass/plastic skirts (very colourful too) and mumus/lays to wear around our necks. Oh man, I can't wait!!!!
For this lunch today I donated 'fish balls' I know how popular they were with my uni buddies and also Kasun liked them. My dad made a 'funny' comment to our team leader by saying that he'd have to find some male fish, coz we need fish balls. Now, you guys can honestly see where I get my stupid sense of humour from!!!
Okay, I hope everyone enjoys dreaming about my fish balls (especially all those vegetarians out there).
Jack Handy Thought For The Day: I'd like to see a nude opera, because when they hit those high notes, I bet you can really see it in those genitals.

Anika, I hope you have fun! Wearing purple t-shirts sounds like fun... Back in my good old days I used to make a point of wearing bright shirts, with a camera around my neck, to look as much like a tourist as possible :D
About you updating your blog (referring to your email) of course 'someone' gives a damn!
Yoomi
P.S. I just bought the James Blunt album. I think it's probably the most beautiful album I've bought to date. It's great!
Yoomi : I love James Blunt:D
I also like his cousin... "Jimmy Sharp"....
Vids, are you sure you haven't been hanging around my Dad?? You seem to have developed his sense of humour!!!
Yoomi, I like this whole tourist look you had going on!!!! Any incriminating photos??
Lol...Vidya, Jimmy Sharp...I'm impressed :P What's his CD like?
Yoomi
Yoomi... his music is more "metal"...(cuz metal is sharp...)
His brother "Frank" however plays music that is very much like that of blunt - he gets straight to the point!
I could keep going but I wont!
Lol...I better keep away from this metal gentleman in that case. Thank you for your review Vidya :D
How are you Anika?
Yoomi
Hehe, you guys are funny!!!
Keep up the good work, we will be starting our roaming comedy show soon!!!!
My pleasure Yoomi...
Anika... really looking forward to your visit!!!
I'm looking forward to my visit too!!! Yay!!!!
wait, what?? When are you visiting??? Am I THAT out of it???
Mel, I'll be in Syd on the 26th Sept till the 2nd Oct. I have intentions of visiting Canb with my folks on the 28th or 29th Sept. I want us Oarsome Foursome to meet up sometime as well.....
Be there or be a square!!!!
Lol...Anika, I'd prefer to be a triangle... Weird sense of humour, I know!
Yoomi
You do that Yumna!!!!
In fact, it would be funny if you played the triangle once in a way.
*Ding*
"Ding"??? Was that Anika sending herself a reminder to update her own blog????
No!! It was me pretending to play the triangle!!!
DUH!!!
*Dinnnggggg*
Heyyy...I'm the triangle thank you very much! :D
Yoomi
Quilateral? right angled? or Scalene?
I like the mathematical properties of a right angled triangle... I think I would like to be a right angled triangle...
-Vidya
Oh yes Vidya, that's why they have three different names.........
