Sunday was very busy. We had a calisthenics comp in Shepparton for the subbies and they did a fantastic job and I'm very proud of them. They won the aggregate, and that was including being up against a higher division. Nice trip home (can tell it has been a while since I was last in Mooroopna because I got excited when I saw Maccas).
Sunday night Shaun, Merv and I went for a drive to Creswick, mainly just because we could. I was a nice drive and we'd decided to go to Maldon because it is nice and quiet along those roads, we ended up in Creswick because Merv drove for a bit (and the other side of Maldon had a section of road that if you were going fast enough felt a bit like being on a rollercoaster, but they had fixed that). I might have fallen asleep in the back seat for a bit on the way home but it was understandable considering I had been up since like 5.30am and it was after midnight (just).

September 30 - October 6
Tuesday night Shaun and I took his laser to Mt Tarrengower for a drive. This time we didn't go up the lookout tower because it was quite windy and cold outside (and getting another cold would suck)
Thursday, mum, my sisters Trinity and Daria, some friends Belinda and Taliha and I went to Melbourne for the night because Trinity and Taliha had a calisthenics competition on Friday with a 9am start and it would have been too long of a day to drive up and home on the one day. It was an eventful day, at first the gps was muted so I missed one of our turnoffs to get to the motel and then we drove past it so we then had to find our way back to the motel after driving around like 3 blocks. Traffic was alright for most of the trip.
Friday the Subbies had their calisthenics comp and did really well. It was a good drive home, Daria slept for a lot of it and Trin and Taliha I don't know how but were hypo the entire way home. I was glad to get home and enjoyed a nice walk with Shaun.

September 23 - 29
So a pretty quiet week this week.
Sunday night, I had Jared staying over so Merv, Shaun, Jared and I went for a drive to Castlemaine in Shaun's gold car, which was nice because Jared likes spending time with my male friends and so do I. We didn't really do anything in Castlemaine just turned around and came home and after that Shaun and I sat in the car for a bit talking just because we could :)

September 16 - 22
Monday night Shaun, Merv and I went for a drive (in Merv's newish car) to Maldon and Mt Tarrengower. We climbed the lookout tower and decided to see if we could work out what towns we could see the lights of. We then went for a bit of a drive around Maldon and up to ANZAC hill, it would have been nice if it wasn't overcast.
Wednesday night, Shaun, Merv, his girlfriend Lisa and I went for a drive in Shaun's newest addition to his cars - an '81 blue ford laser. We got half way to Maldon before we had to turn around and drive home because Lisa was feeling sick.
Saturday night we went to a friends place and hung out there for a bit before we went for a cruise around Bendigo, it was Shaun and I in his car and Merv, David and Sarah in Davids car but Shaun and I decided not to go to Kyenton because it was midnight before Merv said we were going and I was stuffed because I'd performed at Harvest Moon fest prior to this and Shaun had work in the morning.
That was my week travelling - Carolynn -

September 9 - 15
So no road trips again this week...instead Shaun and I went for a walk Saturday and Sunday.
Saturday we walked to White Hills and home, I thought it would be such a good idea to wear thongs (not the brightest idea I must admit) but it was a lovely walk and chat (even if we did get a little freaked out by someone kinda following us) I enjoyed it none the less.
Sunday we just went for a walk around town, from mine to pizza hut to hassle Merv and get some tea, to the cathedral and sat and ate, then back home again. Again it was a nice walk and I so need to do it more often :)

China Excitement
So I'm starting to get serious about this trip to China...I have my passport and my ticket. I went and saw my doctor to see what immunisations it was recommended I get, so I got them on Thursday. Tonight I got the itinerary for the trip (you can view it below). Its all very exciting :D I'm yet to find a suitcase and bag I can use for my carry on, but I will keep you all posted :)
September 2 - 8
Very quite week this week, study is starting to take over again, but its nice to take a break every now and then.
Saturday we had a calisthenics comp in Echuca so it was another early start but not as early as Horsham. Thankfully its only an hour to Echuca. The girls did really well again, receiving runners up aggregate with a couple of 1st's 2nd's 3rd's and an Honourable Mention (HM) :)

August 26 - September 1
This week has been a quiet one, I have stayed in after getting home from my usual evening/night activities.
Saturday night I went out for dinner for a friends 20th - Happy Birthday Beth - then Shaun and I went to Mt Tarrengower, because I'd never been and its so peaceful with a look-out tower you can climb. From where we climbed to you can see the lights of Bendigo and Maldon, its amazing how lit up our towns are. I love going to mountains because its always so peaceful and you can see the stars with no light pollution, wishing we had taken the camera though - always next time :)
Sunday night we went to Vaughan Springs with the intentions of going for a walk along the track on the other side of the springs but because it was dark and there was water across the bridge we didn't, so instead we sat in the car talking and I spent some more time looking at the stars and enjoying the serenity :)

August 19 - 25
Monday, Shaun and I went for a drive to Kyneton and home because we could basically and it got me out of the house.
Thursday, Shaun and I went to Warrnambool for the night basically because we could and I missed out on going on Wednesday. We stayed at Quest apartments and had an awesome view from our apartment balcony.
Friday, we had breakfast at the bay...it was freezing cold and windy there but such an amazing view. We came home via Melbourne in the afternoon
Saturday was an early start as my sister had a calisthenics comp in Horsham, and we had to be there at 8.15 in the morning -_- Mum, my sisters, and I travelled with one of Trin's friends and her parents, so it was nice and cosy in the car. The girls got Runners up Aggregate and did a fantastic job.

August 12 - 18
So Monday night I went on a photography trip with Shaun, his mum and his sister to Torquay. Road trips are fun but going to the beach at 10pm is awesome because the waves look cool with the tide coming in and its so peaceful. Shaun is an awesome photographer and I love going and taking photos with him because I look at things differently and the way to light night photos differently, I think I learn something new nearly each trip.
Wednesday we made a day trip to Melbourne and the Dandenong Ranges, I love the ranges they're just so beautiful, and after wishing we had the camera on the drive, we had no choice but to just take in the beautiful surroundings.
Thursday night we again headed for Melbourne, at first it started as a trip to check out where the RMIT campus I'm hoping to attend next year is. We ended up back in the Dandenong Ranges again and I drove part way home after being stopped for a random breath test (I hate them and was shaking pretty much the entire way to Calder outbound), but it was a good drive.
Friday and Saturday was a night in with a couple of friends, good food and movies (I have now seen almost all of Lord of the Rings), and the weather is pretty crap so I'm thinking a night in tonight too but anything can happen.
