Well, for you, anyway, since I don't drink... My birthday was on the Wednesday that just passed. We didn't do any of the choices listed in the previous post; instead, we went to Leggies (The Moe Hotel) for dinner. I didn't want to do anything, as you know, but in the end I had a lot of fun. Greg's entire immediate family came, as well as my mum and sister, my Kitty and Rhiannon and obviously me. I thinks that's it.
Presents... Present... I got The Little Mermaid (YAY) on DVD as well as Lady and the Tramp (Thanks Greg and Katie), also from Kitty I got a picture of myself and my actual kitty, Casper, it was really cute, I also got a gift voucher from my dad, a Sanity gift voucher from Rhiannon, which will get me Shannon Noll's CD, a gift voucher from Greg's sister, Bethany and her boyfriend Patrick gave me a gift voucher for House, which I'm gonna have fun with, and I got a beautiful photo box from the rest of his family. The highlight of the night, though the night was fun, was opening Katie's present and finding a whole lot of glitter (which promptly went EVERYWHERE).
I had the chicken satay for tea, as did Katie. It's our favourite there, and the garlic bread is the best we've ever had. The garlic bread is not the traditional loaf, it's actually that Turkish loaf stuff cut in half with the garlic butter spread over it. It makes for a very tasty dish. There was a odd mix up with the meals, which resulted in Greg's mum getting a previously owned steak (Rhiannon was the previous owner). It was wrong. Especially since we all knew and saw Rhiannon cut the piece and stuff...
We got home afterwards and watched House, but as soon as that was finished, Katie and I watched The Little Mermaid. I have been waiting to get that movie for so long now... I was so happy. That's all I wanted for my birthday. Well... not ALL I wanted...
I'm moving out this weekend coming. It was supposed to be the weekend that just passed but complications (no gas, no power) made that impossible... I'm kinda excited. I'm going to be living on my own (away from family, I mean... Greg will be there) and supporting myself and I won't have my mum there to do everything for me. We'll see how that works out. I'll most likely start complaining soon after the move. I'll miss my mum. My sister... not so much. Her attitude lately has been horrible. She's treating mum like shit and it's getting worse. Mum will be sending her to the new place to stay with us for weekends, so the little shit's not gonna know what hit her.
I don't know how many people have pay TV but tonight (Sunday) a new show started up on Fox8. I've seen previews of it for about a month now and it looks great. Watching it, it's really interesting stuff. It's called Black and White. Two families, one black and one white, change races and live six weeks as each other. It's amazing, the way they change the white people into black people and vice versa. The results are unbelievable. You see them compare notes and talk things out, there is even some coaching happening. If you haven't seen it, do.

Howdy!
What's been happening lately? I wish I could say a lot, but in reality, that's not true. I went to the Melbourne show (which was not all that it's cracked up to be), I've been pretty sick, but you don't want to hear about that, I've been working non stop (nine days in a row this week) and I'm moving out of home.
I'm moving out. It's scary, actually. I want the seclusion, I crave the seclusion, but I'm leaving home. Leaving my mum, my sister and everything I've ever known I want privacy, my own space, as it's something I severely lack at home... But as Peter Pan would say, "It's an awfully big adventure..."
I've got almost everything I need. It's cool too because my dad is actually going to make me a few other things, like a wardrobe and book shelves... He did the robes for mum's house and the wall unit in the lounge.
News... My birthday's next week. I turn 22 on the 18th of October. I have to work that day which sucks. People keep asking me what I'm doing for it but the thing is, I don't know what to do. I'm 22. My days of big birthdays are over. I'm all out of ideas. I actually suggested to Katie that we go to Hungry Jacks and utilise their party room, but that is too close to my 21st which I held at McDonald's in the party room. So I said no. Would be fun though. Maybe I'll just do nothing. Ignore the whole thing. It would save me a lot of trouble, but I know I'll be disappointed if I did.
Katie and I have been going to different restaurants for a long time now and tonight we went somewhere we've never been. We went to a place in Morwell called Turkuaz. The food wasn't bad. Filling, though. We had the Chicken Doner Kebab which is a heap of chicken piled on tip of rice, and the Iskender Kebab which is Lamb... lots and lots of lamb, piled on top of a bread, dough thing, with a rich tomato sauce over the top with a dressing of yogurt over that. It was very good, very rich. You can't eat a whole lot of it. Kitty and I got through about half of each dish and called it quits. There was just too much. Next time, if we get something huge, we're taking Greg or Kylie or someone to share with us.
Next week, or next time, we're going to Amigo's again. Good food there, if a little unusual. Mexican. After that we're going to Out of India. We feel it's time to try new things. In all aspects of life.
