Alright then. Haven't updated in a long time, Sorry. Rundown:
Xmas - +37. Exchanged gifts. Went to the beach (All the roommates plus a couple friends, John and I) and baked in the sun. We snorkelled just off the coast and saw thousands of fish by a local reef. You could actually swim down and literally swim with fish all around you. It was really cool. Then we went over to John and Katie's for a potluck xmas dinner. There was potato salad, shish kabebs(made by me). prawns, a Korean dish that our Korean roommate made. And a bunch of other various untraditional xmas dishes. hahaha it was a very Aussie xmas. And was definetly weird because of the hot temp. We all had a good time.
Boxing Day - taking it easy on the beach minus the fact that there was an 8 minute burn time if you were out in the sun without 30+ sunscreen on. It was an incredible 45 degrees celcius outside. Sleeping any time past 9 in the mornin was simply impossible seeing as the majority of houses don't have AirCon. Went snorkelling, saw tons of fish again. The ocean became our homes because it was too hot anywhere else. Spent the day swimming with the fish again.
John and I have the next week off and do various things. The beach many times.
New Years Eve - everyone comes over for a BBQ, such things occur sch as drinking games and John Kenny pouring champagne down everyone's throats. John and I head out to the main area of town to a club called Rise. It's a techno bar, but just the kinda of bar we need to dance the night away. Another plus was that it had a balcony that overlooked the main stage of Northbridge so we got to look above the crowd while hundreds of people counted down the end of 2007. the ball didn't drop. I don't know what's up with that! But John and I spent our 2nd New Years eve together and it was quite the fun time. We headed back to the house at around 3 to see that the BBQ was still thriving. Played some more dirnking games.

It's been quite mild here for a January in Winnipeg. Alot of snow has melted, there's little to no snow on the streets, it's almost like the beginning of Spring! I hope to God it stays that way, I wouldn't mind an extra early summer!
