Fashion Parade

Last Sunday my friend and I went to a fashion parade at the city hall. It was to promote a new designer and also a new fashion magazine. We drank champagne and talked to lots of people. All of the clothes were really beautiful and different.

Afterwards I went back to my friend's house and she made me noodles. We chatted to her roommate and his girlfriend. They are both really nice people. He is Australian and she is Thai.

Iron Man

Last weekend there was an Iron man competition and three of our friends competed. It took about 11 hours for them to complete the race which included a swim, ride and run. One of them had to pull out of the race because he felt too weak. It was fun to watch but some people got really sunburned.

Christmas Tree

When I went to my sister's house on Monday we put up the Christmas tree together. In Australia most people don't have a proper tree, they have a plastic one that they can pack away and use again. We don't have the right kind of weather for a real tree.

After we had put all of the decorations and lights on it, it looked really good. My sister's cat Tiger started pulling all of the decorations off straight away though. He is kind of naughty! He likes to sit under the tree in the dark.
