merry christmas everyone! i dont like it :( its just not christmas at all. no lights, no tree and no nan saying 'oh eck! havnt you done well' the only thing that feels like christmas is the duty to talk to ppl whe you have a blinding hangover.

Sydney is a boss city as far a cities go but there is one major let down. the street stones are so smooth that when it rains (as it did yesterday) the whole place turns into a ice rink! i was slipping and sliding like a dog on laminate! not fun! oh and somebody needs ot wash the opera house. its kinda brown and mucky, i would do it but im on my hols :)

we woke up this morning and swaped crap prezzies that we got ($10 limit on each) i got robson the crappest tie i could find..... and he likes it! and i got liv badges for her little collection she has going. they got me a VB stubby cooler and on oven glove. mental livi. then we spent the day at bondi chilling (or in my case trying not to be sick) and the others whipped up a auzzie style xmas dinner on the bbq. kangaroo and prawns and stuff, yummy. now we are sitting off and wondering what to do 2night. *shrugs* no ideas.

kk im going 2 ring home now

Hallo its liv (matt is here)

 Simmons is right it wasnt the same. We all decided christmas is about who you are but as we were with 2 of our best friends and in sydney we made the most of it. Turned out to be a pretty good day, pretty darn hot aswell!!

Simmons' present of me was actually fantastic! i allso got him a punching kangeroo pen, how good is that! Allso thanks to the Robson family for the presents christmas cake in the morning went down a treet. Toothbrush allso a very handy and practical gift. We all nedded one. Unfortunatly it came a few days late for Matt as he had allready baught a new one. Thanks mum for the cards shrimp on the barbie joke, classic (we actually had shrimp, on a barbie! Allso mum when did you get in a gang hehehe (love sue and the gang) and when we come home me matt and adam were wondering could we join? aaand Simmons' family, thanks for the picture from the going away party, luckily none of our new friends have seen it and so dont know we are all weirdos at times. How funny doea matt look?!? when we seen it me and adam were oh my how terrible does matt look hahaha only for matt to then say 'WOAH I LOOK AMAZING! when i get home i might borrow mum and nicks clothes more often'. I left sharpish before he asked to borrow mine.

 As for other news I HAVE PUPPY!!! well its my mums but its actually mine. Called it Luigi. Originally Darwin but sounds too much like Darling and we didnt want him to think he was a she if you get my drift. Unforunatly i can only see pictures and videos. The closest i get to the real thing is when it rains and simmons cant handle the floor and slips everywhere and he metions above.

Well i'm off MERRY CHRISTMAS!! love olivia (and Matt) x x x
