Ole! Today I went surfing for the first time in 3 weeks! And Wong used her board for the first time! *woohoo!* Although it was more like me using her board, and I using hers because she had a lack of legrope... So I had to run into shore after the board a little more frequently than normal...

Also, we saw a few bluebottles, and Wong got her first bruise, and she nearly stood up for a while (by nearly being... she fell off as soon as she put her feet on :P). So yay for freshwater beach!

I got a meningacoccal C vaccination today! My doctor (yes Trees, Phua) was like 'relax your arm, don't tense it' and I was like "but... I AM relaxed..." then afterwards he put on one of those round bandaids over the spot and by the time I had signed the medicare thing it had filled with blood. *eww* So he took off the bandaid to change it, but he couldn't find the spot again! bwaahahaa!

Anyway, have gotten home to discover my face is sunburnt, because as I left the house this morning I realised I hadn't sunscreen with me... :(

Up, up, up and away!!

Nah, it was really good for the beach. Quiet beach, no burning sun... Although there was quite a rip...
