Last night I attended a charity movie screening; An Inconvenient Truth. What I got from the night is how important friends are. The invite came from my friend Adrian whose sister Madeleine (I brilliant person BTW) was helping organise the night. During the night I got to catch up with my friends Adrian,…

Well somehow the tennis team I captain managed to make the finals after having to win our last 3 matches since the Christmas break (one against the then 3rd team and the other against the run away 1st team – West Brunswick in the last match). Today was our knockout Semi-Final (2nd vs. 3rd) …
