The naturally gifted

Well yesterday after i came home from UNSW and dinner, i was thinking of blogging, but i had to do my maths cause it was due for perrins.

anywhos, for those who didn't know, yesterday i went with parents to get my pleasant 100 dollars from UNSW for that eco comp which basically noone did.
i think my parents overthink these things and think its a really big achievement, so they insisted on both going and even brought the camera with them xD

so left home about 5-15 and it was all sunny . and i drove to UNSW with mum taking happy snaps in the back seat.

im gonna say this again. but gosh i really wish i had my Ps. just the freedom of driving by yourself.
so we finally arrive and it starts flooding and pouring out of nowhere. walk the entire stretch of that long UNSW entrance and find shelter really briefly until we ask some sydney boys where the heck the presentation is. coincidentally one of the guys didnt bring his umbrella, so he sheltered under mine.
during the brief 30 seconds or so, i found out he was one of Gabriel's church buddies . so hey mutual friends. thats cool

walk into the hall or whatever you want to call it. pants all drenched despite the umbrella, hoping for some sort of food or refreshments. pick up program and name tag and wait there for a while with the other ruse guys discussing estimates and stuff. i have a quick look through my program. people i havent seen for a long time were on the list. so i was kind of eagerly searching for their whereabouts. sadly they didnt come.
some sydney girl walks over and we later discover its Shiva's ex -girlfriend. and we leave em to chat for a while . she also happens to be the National winner for eco in the junior division
finally we get let into the main presentation hall by what seems like the cadets of PWC. and long story short, the rest of it went by quite quickly actually. it was pretty disorganised too. students and parents were just sitting everywhere, and the cadets were tryna get people to move.
During the presentation. my name gets left out for some disorganised reason. so i hafta go up on stage. whisper my name into the guy's ear for me to walk up and recieve my imaginary certificate and shake the head professor of economics or something. later on they do find it

peter chen gets his long awaited trophy. and must i say. it looked pretty sweet.
one of those clear ones with his name and some other stuff imprinted into the glass. mr dunkerley was pretty pleased in eco today as well. as seemed as if he was licking his lips at the thought of holding that trophy and having taught the student who came 1st in Australia for the comp.

Afterwards we chow down some chicken kebab sticks and drinks and head off to eat crab at seafood restaurant. the end

I'm sorry that this post has been very disjointed. but i have some pics to share from the night.
