Long Weekend Gone...

The long weekend just flew by! 4 days of complete RnR.  And had the place to myself till yesterday!

There had been the plan to go bushwalking on Friday but getting stuck in holiday traffic diffused the enthusiasm and we ended up going back home and walking by the river instead. I don't know about other countries, but here, almost all stores are in shutdown mode on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. So both those days were spent being lazy --- reading, watching movies, eating and drinking. Saturday was spent at Borders and going out for dinner. And well, today was spent reading and coming to terms with the fact that the long weekend is done.

I just have to say this --- friend and I watched this movie 'Mary and Max' (which I have wanted to watch for a while --- and it is an amazing movie! Go grab the DVD. It's a beautifully told story of an unusual friendship with a lovely message.

So anyway, back to reality now. Back to work tomorrow. And back to having flatmate in the house.

How was your weekend?

Until next time,

Cheers!!!

  13. No I was strong. Didn't end up buying anything since I ordered House Rules last week online and got it delivered on the 1st. Wanted to buy the Messenger though...but will wait till next time. Uni work over the long weekend...can be tiresome but you can get a whole lot done as I learnt at uni...

  14. Lol! I don't get that often since flatmate is generally always around. But I wait and wait and wait for her to go. I guess I could babysit for a couple of days. Provided you promise to definitely come back after a couple! =P

  15. Hehe...well, in India we didn't really need long weekends because we got so many public holidays throughout the year. Here...I wait for Easter (4 days), Anzac Day, Australia Day, Christmas, Boxing Day and Queen's B;day. Because that's it. That's the number of public holidays we get. What movie did you watch??
