Today Ryan and Helen and I went down to Coogee Beach for a morning swim. After Ryan decided that he did not want to do laps but rather run Helen and I decided to try out the woman’s only pool. I loved it. It was like a great giant rock pool. I can not even begin to describe how much nicer it is to look up when breathing and see rocks and ocean and then look down and see some fishes rather than just the bottom of Victoria pool. I also really liked how friendly the other women were. I often find beach culture to be quite cold whereas these ladies were very friendly.

After the swim I went back to Helen’s for a hot shower. Our hot water tank had been out since Thursday so it had been awhile. It was difficult but I could almost do it again for the joy of feeling the hot water run down after a few days without it. It was joyous. Ours has now been replaced so I am very grateful.

Helen then came over for some study. I am finding my studies so boring at the moment. It is making me quite angry. I think that boring lecturors are so disrespectful to their students. And it annoys me how irrelavant what I am doing is to what I want to do. It is very draining. Attending the Liberating the Captives Conference helped a little to reinspire me but today pulle dme vback into boredom. Anyway at least it was somewhat productive.

Finally in the evening Tom brought around his little brother. I really like him. So confident and friendly. He said I was funny – that happens to me very rarely so I was very excited. i wanted to hug him. We had BBQ dinner and played on David’s Wii. I thought it was lots of fun even if I couldn’t totally work it out.

Yay for such fun days that are totally unplanned and unexpected.
