It's been pretty bad, to be honest.
Let's start with my birthday.
That was horrible. I had an eye infection, so basically I could only see out of one eye.
Then I found out that my parents hadn't actually gotten me anything, because they were actually serious about paying for my party.
We went out for lunch on Mount Dandenong, which was pretty good, as it usually is.
The day after, we went to Mount Dandenong (yes, again) for breakfast, because apparently it's good to go for a stroll on a mountain on Chinese New Year. Pretty uneventful.
The next day, things got slightly better. My parents decided to get me a suit, and I would pay for my party. Much better. Seriously, I don't know what it is, but I just think that a 21st birthday present should be something lasting.
At least, I thought it was getting better. Little did I know that Chadstone and it's surrounds would get flooded. The signs were all there. The stores below getting flooded. We just didn't know the rain was that bad.
So we finished suit shopping and ran out into the torrential rain. And drove through rivers. Literally. Here's a pic.
Hopefully that's visible to all. We took a few detours, helped a few Koreans drag their car along, and got home in one piece.
And today, my eye has pretty much healed up. The doc gave me some better super magical ointment (different to the super magical ointment he gave me in the first place). Today also marked the start of the Leaders Program. Pretty long day, but petty interesting. Gotta prep for tomorrow when I get home.
Word of the Day: Torrential
