Fresh Friday #4 - 05/10
Well, well. It's Monday, I've just had an amazing weekend and it's time to share it with the world!
So Friday for me this week was very, very, hectic. It was the much anticipated AWAKEN conference and I was very excited and the conference commenced in a very disorganised fashion for me.
For starters I got hardly no sleep thanks to a certain guy (Colin Wynn) and had to get up early for breakfast at eight-ish. After consuming brekky, i then went on to play some drums at the rally and listen to Brad Hayman preach a great message.
After this I had to quickly rush out the door with a few things just before the elective and travel to Churchill (about two hours) so I could complete my last lab for the semester and finish going to Uni on a Friday any more until exams start. I was able to cruise down the back roads at my leisure as no-one else was travelling on them and I had plenty of time. I stopped by a windmill to take a few photographs, but a rogue magpie was swooping around a little, so i didn't get any decent ones and just quickly moved on.
The lab went alright, but due to my tiredness I made a few crucial errors which dragged the time out a bit meaning that the drive home couldn't be as leisurely as the drive up.
In between blasting John Mayer out of my stereo and getting to Sale i realised that I was only 15km away from reaching the milestone of racking up 150,000 kms in my red car, Pierre. I drove down the road with my heart beating faster with each new kilometre and made it to just outside Stratford before the odometer ticked over to that special value.
With that out of the way and John Mayer still accompanying me for the drive back to Bairnsdale, i made good time and got back just in time for dinner. Dinner aside I then proceeded to play drums for a bit, listen to Brad preach again, get back up and play drums for another, lets say, hour at least (on top of the hour I had just racked up playing before the message). God came and moved all around the place and it was a really special experience. I would not give up drumming in those circumstances for the whole world.
Once that was all done and dusted, things gradually winded down to going back to bed again and the infamous snoring of Colin went from snoring to this... intolerable... noise. I would liken it to someone who is in serious danger of dying and is on life support, but the plug connecting the machine to the wall is only half in, meaning that he is only getting half the oxygen needed to survive and is slowly dying. that accompanied by all the noises a life support machine would normally make.
SO that was my Friday and I hope yours was a cracker as well!!
