Down Town in China Town

Hello :)

Today started off like any other... I woke up.
Lol
Then it was different.....

Chilled at Home untill 11 o'clock and then my Family and I went and drove down to Hungry Jacks for breakfast/ lunch. After recieving a "wrap and cap" (it's funny when the person serving asked what drink goes with the "wrap and cap" *cap as in Cappachino*) and we then stopped at my grandparents place to chat for a while :)

- Grandparents are awesome. Talk to them When you get the chance, and ask about the stories behind some of their cool stuff. Like "Where did you get the cool plates, or where did you get the stuffed moose head hanging on the wall...." They have some really cool stories behind them and when they go... the stories sometimes go with them.
It's times like this I wish that I knew more about my Great Grandma before she passed away. Like, I never knew what a sense of humour she had. Seriously... anyone who writes stories about her new microwave  oven and what happens if you put whole eggs in has a sense of Humour.

Anyway....
I found a book with a pattern for a bow tie in it. YAY

Then we stopped at 'Rustys'drove down to Brisbane with vanilla coke :D

So I went to china town and Had the BEST lunch at a chinese restaurant with my family :) Sadly... we did not have the Duck. :(

Then Dad and I went shopping at the china town markets while Mum took off with the car and took my 3 siblings to my cousins (they had a pool)

So I got these awesome BAGGY BALOON PANTS :D
:) (they are awesome btw)

And you should have seen me when I put them on..... Hahaa

Looking at the other stuff like the Owl wall stickers.... ( sadly $25 was out of my wallet) and the Andrew Sisters record.... *sigh* I really wanted it :P
Oh and the bag with a leaf and the words "HEMP" printed underneath......

Well Dad and I were on the lookout for Art Gallerys [please note... Art gallerys are NOT open on sundays >:( ]
But anyway walking around we find the the COOLEST LOOKING restaurant everrrrrr ( http://www.ortiga.com.au/gallery#/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Lulus-easter-and-ortiga-033w.jpg ) It had the most beautiful looking old walls of exposed brick and the celling.... *oh it was Amazing* if I could get a place like that to live/hold an art galley in.... it would be just short of heaven...... :D

So we looked at that... and I drooled about it....
Then after walked around and then on the way to the train station I decide to look in at this random store and I find PAPER LANTERNS for $2.50.
(I got some :) )
So because I haven't started orientation week at UNI yet I was charged as an Adult for the train ride.... $5.40 is too much.  So because I stopped at the paper-lantern-selling-store we missed our train and had to wait for 25 minutes till the next train came along. Oh well, my bad. Anyway I got to have a good look at some free magazines that I picked up. (I love that about brisbane....)
Well Dad and I got on the train and then as we were going along Dad was like "I lived there... and  up there... and there...." He lived everywhere in Brizzy.. well almost.
So Dad and I got off the Train, met everyone at the car and then headed down to Bridgeman Downs Baptist Church. We had a wholesome dinner of ice-cream, coke and a cameral KitKat. And because I had finally gotten a chance to put my new pants on I was standing there and swishing my pants around.... LOL.
So in the service there was one part that really got my attention.... The minister said
" Just because something is popular doesn't make it right. Two words.... Justin Bieber."

So after listining to Newsboys on my iPod in the car I got home, went on Facebook and basicly inspired Hanah to create a blog just so she can follow mine :P
Anyway. Good night people :)
