Successful Weekend.

Hello there,

this weekend we did a lot and the best is that we didn't plan any of it.
On friday while I was at work Connie texted me to ask if I wanted to see the Pies beat the Blues as she had a spare ticket for the huuuge match.
Straight after work we met at Connie's work and caught the tram/walked to the MCG.

We were pretty lucky to have an awesome weather that day, the MCG is open so in winter you easily freeze your bottom off and when it rains...oooh you can only imagine hehe.

Here is the sun that was going down behind the beautiful city of Melbourne behind us, while we were walking to the MCG :)

The match was goood and we had good seats close to the ground, the one thing that annoyed all of us was the drunk guys who started a fight with us girls out of nowhere?!?!

We were there with connies mum,lil brother,cousins and aunty&uncle as it is a family event. Going to the footy as far as I know has always been from the lil and older ones, it's not a place to get pissed at and abuse the hell out of who you want to. People like that should perhaps watch the match at a pub and not where they're surrounded by families.

Anyway...apart from them low "guys" it was fun as Connie and her Mum are the most passionate supporters I have ever seen, some times during the match i would actually look at them instead of the players haha.

After a long day and a good long sleep, Saturday started at 10am this time with my mother and Connie of course. We went shopping as my 21st birthday is only 13days away and I still had nothing to wear. We started in Brunswick where I found shoes I didn't really need, they were cute,cheap and only in my size...I wasn't just gonna leave em there lol.

We so gangsta and hip! haha

After having lunch in a cute lil French Cafe' we headed off to Highpoint, a big shopping centre in our area. There I finally found a cute white dress with sleeves which were the main thing i was looking in a dress on my hunt. I still have no shoes but we were so tired we just wanted to leave and go homeee.

Tired and out of energy we collapsed on the couch at home and did a Gossip Girl marathon haha, come on you gotta looove Gossip Girl!! We sure do :)

We watched it till it was time for dinner, which we had at a family friends house. Till dinner was ready we played with the lil kids ... we played with barbies! hahaha it was really funny.

After dinner we went home and watched Gossip Girl again till we fell asleep. zzZzzzzz.......

We had a pretty good weekend, the next big event for us will be Supafest which I would have mentioned in prev posts with all the awesome rapstars :)

till then...

From Very Hot!..to a very wet Melbourne

Our unique city of Melbourne is well known for its crazy weather mood swings!

Last Friday we had 28 degrees and Sunshine and then the day after on Saturday it was down to 17 degrees and stormy rain and floods!

On Friday we had our friends Caetlyn 20th Birthday at..hmm guess where we went again??? The Perseverance! haha.

Since we're planning on going overseas next year we have to think of many ways on how to cut down on spendings.

1.Buy 'travellers' if you're heading out where drinks can get pricey.

:p

With the birthday girl in the car on our way there.

yup..another shot in the toilets haha.

The group for the night, everyone enjoying themselves :)

you can't tell but i had 2seconds to run from the bar and back to them thanks to my timer to take the picture hehe.

definitely a bunch of good looking peeps right there :P

Love these last two pictures the most, wish i could have stolen the photographers cameras look at how cool they look!

After Caetlyns Birthday we got home in time to have enough sleep before we had to get ready for Derby Day 

(One of the Melbournian Spring Racing Days where the traditional dress code is Black & White)

Last year when Connie and myself went for the first time it was amazing weather but it got too hot at one stage. This year it was the extreme opposite!It was bucketing down till the streets flooded, it was a very amazing day haha.

Ready to go to the Races :]

Connie having a little lunch break under our mofo umbrella haha.

One of the many races of the day.

Squeezing together under the umbrella but someone just kept getting wet, especially when the wind joined the rain...that was just great...

We had to go inside away from the horrible weather, but it wasn't that much better there.

It was all wet,slippery and crowded because everyone else was hiding from the rain there too.

So we finally left about 20minutes before the main race haha,oh well...we didn't get to place bets anyway.

Poor Caetlyn walking under the rain from the Flemington Race Course....let's hope next year will be better compared to the last two years.

Here we are waiting for our lift under our big umbrella totally soaked!

 ...But that didn't stop us from having our own fun.

When we got home we laid on the couch and watched TV firstly because we were wrecked!

Then sometime later Connie and me fell asleep while leaving Caetlyn alone to watch a movie lol. All that running around in the rain in heels really got to us, once we woke up we played some games on the Wii which was pretty funny!

We had some dinner and called it a night.We really ended up having way more fun when we got home then at the races. I mean it was a great experience to get all dressed up and go to such a old traditional event, but when you can't do much because everything is flooded...then that ain't fun lol.

That's all for today from me :)

A Very packed Weekend!

Hello! This time it's Nelly :)
This post has not been posted due to not having pictures uploaded, and a post without pictures is a little boring imo.

Our packed weekend started on a Friday after work when Connie our friend Caetlyn and myself ate out at Cavallino on Lygon Street. Lygon street is a a street in Melbourne filled with mediterranean restaurants and shops, if you visit Melbourne visit Lygon too :)
The food was great with it we also had white wine, it wasn't the best but good enough.
After dinner we went to Caetlyns work where everyone had left and I started getting ready for the Night. Once that was done Caetlyn dropped me off at a Karaoke place where I had my work colleagues waiting for me to sing...which never happened :P

 

Yeah I'm really shy with singing in front of people unless I had few drinks in me or after I feel comfortable enough with that person. Anyway the night was great I had 5Free drink cards which i had to waste in less than 2hours, so by the time Caetlyn & Connie had picked me up I was..well let's say very happy. Thinking about it now I feel really sorry for Connie & Caetlyn for having to hear my singing all the way to our mate's Birthday.

The Party was at the Doutta Galla Hotel in Flemington, which never went to so we didn't really know what to expect. WOW it was a great great night, the Music was just about perfect the crowd not so much but it didn't matter because we were too busy dancing it up.  They had this special 'Tea Pot' which had...I'm not too sure what but you had to have it in shots, and because it's big and not something you can leave at the bar we had it all quick!

Connie pouring some TeaPot drink in out shot glasses.

The ones to drink it all were...no big surprise, Leigh Connie and I.

Must Toilet shots.

I'm Telling you the best pictures are always taken in the girls toilet, there is just something about them.

Girls catch up on all the gossip, make-up is being reapplied and the outfit is being fixed up. So here it is boys, you always wonder why girls take aaaages in the toilet, of course we don't pee like the Niagara Falls haha.

Here are the Girls looking all cute :)

Last pic of the night,Kisses to you from DDF :)

That mark on Connies head was from falling down the stairs on her way out, just kidding it's a lipstick mark :p
