Not too bad a day today. I faffed my speech but eh, it was flipped at the last minute so I can now see it wasn’t really on me. Plus first speech and all that. I was summoned onto the stage with a bunch of other “young consultants” as they call us and had to accept a scroll and a purple monkey, although I didn’t need to speak (thank goodness) then we left.
We went down to Belair…
Then up to Gawler…
And then into the central Adelaide station…
Then we went to this cool little yank burger joint in the city, coincidentally called “yankee burgers”…
Although on the whole I’ve found Adelaide people to be more respectful and quiet than Melbourne, drunk people don’t really care about norms and social expectations, so there was some gronk in a noisy red Holden and blaring music who was looping 3 blocks for about an hour, and all the drunkies yelling at each other below.
Then we went to Glenelg and did a Ferris wheel ride, apparently the last one of the night before they closed…
And yeah, I definitely get st Kilda vines from glenelgy, except I do not like st Kilda do I’m gonna say glensy is better
One more sleep and then I’ll come back to the dark side (only quarter joking). See you soon, Melbourne heads!
Also, apparently despite a few unsavoury antics over the last few days, the Vic group was actually really well behaved. There’s been a shit ton of rumours, but on confirmed behaviour, we haven’t actually done anything. It’s been the other states running amok. It’s pretty much become state vs state. One of our group was even practically exiled for buying into the rumours. I am really happy to go home and not have any more drama though! Gossip and stupid drama is a solid 85% of the reason I despise school. At least I’ll have a clean room though I guess
Sorry I haven’t been very present for you guys recently - I’ve been trying to keep up on what’s happening with everyone, but I haven’t replied much
It has been an overall good trip, although I’m really looking forward to having buses that actually go where I want them to go, and sleeping in my own bed!
