the past few weeks have been very busy for me in terms of studies, clinics and preparing for the camp and launch.

overflow camp last weekend was great. zoran spoke to us about extravagance and how we are called to be extravagant in everything we do. he also talked about dreams and its intepretation.

i guess one of the prayers was answered in that the camp wasn't a high but a stepping stone to a new level. i didn't feel like it was hyped up although i did feel quite sore the the few days after that. all to do with the rock climbing i did and how unfit i am.

i got to watch the stars on sat night with neets. it was great. and cold. we were both swaddled in her doona and i didn't have enought. God cleared the sky so the stars were quite bright. we picked a very darks spot near the path that was used to go to the campfire so we waited a while for someone to come up and poke us with a stick. ben and lovey came with a torch instead. very bright.

this is my third time to phillip island adventure resort and i must say that the giant swing doesn't give me quite the same rush of adrenaline. i must be getting used to it. hmm...need to fine another source of cheap but safe adrenaline rush.

then to a gig. i haven't been to a proper gig in awhile so i quite enjoyed evermore. the hampdens and the bob evans band supported them. didn't quite enjoy bob evans but i thought the harmonica bits were good. reason why? well, i did like a few songs he played but i think he was quite drunk. he had a bottle of wine which he drank off after every song. maybe because he was the second support act and everyone was tired of standing and waiting for evermore to come out that they started boo-ing him. it seemed as if he wasn't going to get off the stage until he finished his bottle of wine. and so it dragged on.

the hampdens weren't too bad. rickshaw really did love the lead singer (which was female) and so neets kept yelling "rickshaw loves you" when there wasn't any music and she was taking a drink. neets was excited also because they were supporting john mayer when he's down in melbourne.

i didn't know that the evermore band members were related to each other! i especially like peter, the bassist/keyboard player. it was actually fascinating how the keyboard moved like and extension of himself. it being thin and light was probably a good thing. he lifted it above his head a few times and moved it across the stage throughout the songs he played on it. my eyes were on him most of the time until anita wanted to go towards the back because the sound was hurting her ears. then i lost sight of all of them because i was short and there were a lot of tall people in front of me.

the only reason i regret moving to the back is when the drummer pulled out the eukalalee. argh! it was then i wish i was still at the front stuck between the sweaty bodies of screaming girls.

i had earplugs on so that helped a lot.
