A very interesting weekend… Life can be great sometimes !
- Friday night, hung out with friends, went to Pancake Parlour and then did some stupid things with road-work signs.
- Saturday, watched Melbourne Victory play and lose. Eastern Grandstand made so much noise though. With just 3.900 people in the stadium for this pre-season game, the atmosphere was better than an AFL match.
- Sunday day played paintball. The lesson learned here is that the team with the most extreme aggression wins. I kind of went crazy but my teams all won. 
- Sunday evening went to a friend’s house and played Risk with his family. Risk is the best board game, ever. EVER.
- Monday watched a Bollywood film called Chakde India. It’s a film about a disgraced Indian hockey coach who takes the Indian women’s team and leads them to World Cup glory. All full of women’s rights and ‘we love India’ etc. Very entertaining but NO dancing!
- Night-time went to an old friend’s house and had dinner with her and new husband.
Why am I saying all this? Just to remind you that life isn’t much more than a collection of experiences…. don’t waste a day.

Dude, you were awesome at paintball. If we ever go again I reckon I’ve found a supplier who can sell us paintballs for about 4 cents a pellet instead of the 60 cents we were paying at the field.
Risk is an awesome game, much better than monopoly I reckon. (Until people throw the dice on the board)
