So tired right now.
May. 13th, 2005 11:41 pmHad an excursion today. We went to the IMAX and Australian Museum. Hooray for mummies! The IMAX film was on the finding of Tutankhamun's tomb and it had Omar Shariff and Kate Maberly in it. I specifically mentioned Kate Maberly because it took me from this morning until about half an hour ago to find out who she was. *headdesk* She looked really familiar. She was the kid who played Mary in The Secret Garden, which was one of my favourite movies. That was so random but hey! I'll forget if I don't write it down. Then at the Australian Museum we got to see an exhibit with lots of dead people. Well ok, 3 mummies (I think). Their coffins were so detailed. It was amazing. And the amulets and things that they had with them were so intricately decorated. It was amazing. The creepiest part, thought, was the mummified heads, hands and foot. One of the heads still had hair (which was incredible) and another had it's tongue poking out. It was so cool.
Bad thing, though, I had to get up early but I got coffee! Vanilla latte from Gloria Jean. But then I got rained on in the 5 minute walk from getting my coffee to the station. *rolls eyes* Stopped raining after that. Trust. On the bright side we got a good amount of time in the city to just wander around. 15 minutes before the IMAX, and an hour for lunch. We checked out the cheap as CD stores on Pitt Street. Everything was 10 bucks. *loves* I got Aretha Franklin's Greatest Hits, Bob Marley and the Wailers Greatest Hits and The Ramones. The Aretha CDs are really good. I've only listened to the first CD, though.
So today was a good day. Except my school shoes were killing me afterwards and my stockings were starting to tick me off. But by the time we got back to Engadine station there was just Yas, me and one of our teachers' in the compartment we were in. We scared the rest off by quoting We Will Rock You. *evil grin* Serves them right. Sonia and Steph were annoying me so much today. Why choose Ancient History if all you're going to do is complain? They knew we'd be doing Egypt as part of the course. Gah.
Another plus: Town Hall station was covered in Star Wars Episode 3 posters. I so wanted to steal a Yoda one.
And meme! Because I haven't done any for a while and numerous people have tagged me for this one. Most recently
kimbari and I think
nutmeg4077 did at one point, too.

So yeah. I'm gonna finish checking my flist then go to bed. Coz sleep is yay and I'm tired.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, especially for the girls on
chamalla_dreams, Dances With Wolves was stalking me today! Every time I turned around the DVD was right. there. staring me in the face. Or the soundtrack! I saw it last night at Miranda, twice today in the city, the cd twice and then after we got back and Yas went to meet her Mum, she rings me on my mobile and tells me she saw it in Leading Edge Music as she walked past. GAH!
