Back from my adventures

So I arrived home last night from my New Years Eve adventures at Falls Festival with a detour to Shoreham. Prior to Falls I had spent 2 nights in Melbourne after being at Shoreham since before Christmas, so it feels as though I haven't really been home in two weeks.

I have picked up a throat and chest problem (I daren't say infection because I don't know if it's that bad), which is making sleeping bad. I'm still perfectly able, but feel a bit crappy.

The adventures were great fun. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time in the great outdoors, which is nice because I used to enjoy it a lot more when I was younger, but lately seem to prefer lazing about rather than getting out there and doing things. Camping was the most exciting, putting up a tent and sleeping in it... there's something about providing for ones self that is really rewarding. The Falls Festival went really well too, it was so well organised and I felt really safe. There weren't that many people who were rowdy enough to worry me, and there were plenty of staff shepherding us here and there and watching over us from the sidelines. On top of all that the bands were great! On the first night there were three bands in a row that I really like, and I found myself dancing away like a crazy woman. It was good for keeping warm. On NYE itself, I managed to drink too much and was almost out of steam by midnight. Franz Ferdinand were awesome though... I would definately like to go and see them at a show one day.

So now I have one week left before I start work, and I will try to make as much progress as possible on redecorating my room. Today I think I will pack away all my things from adventuring and put some things into boxes from my shelves etc.
