Glad to get that out of my system. It's the first time we've ever led the metal tally. And it's in Greece. Fuckin' A, my people. Fuckin' A!

You lucky girl! God, that sounds like sooo much fun! :) I wish I could stay up and watch the swimming! *whimpers* Stupid work for the dole tomorrow!! :( Though I have permission to be late. John Howard said I could be late. Prime Minister's Permission! NER!

Dude!! I was working at the tennis, which was next to the hockey, and BOY by the time that I made it to that stadeum, I had ALL THIS PENT UP NATIONALISTIC SPIRIT screaming to get out!!

It took 5 WHOLE GO's to get that wave going. My family was sooo very embarressed. My grandmother didn't know what to do, my aunt "I don't know her", my mum was tugging at my hand to get me to sit down, and meanwhile, I had about half the stand of people (by the 4th go) screaming "KEEP GOING!!!".

I even got the media and athlete's boxes going. :D *proudest public moment eva*

YEAH!!! BWHAHAAHAH!! I CAN BE LATE FOR WORK TOMORROW!! nah ne nah ne nah nah!!! whoops - there you are on YIM!

It's the first time Howard's said something that hasn't pissed me off!

It sounds suspiciously like something Hawkey said when we won the Americas Cup.

Yeah, it's a very oafish guttural chant. But hey, that's Australia for you. :) And my condolences to America on the basketball. I was totally shocked! You guys are usually so impeccably GOOD. And PR were just... woah!

Meh, it was about time the dynasty was taken down a notch or two. Sweeter revenge that it came from a U.S. colony. Ooops, I mean "dependency". =P

OK, I will be honest. I wish we could top the table ... But we probably won't. [-.-]
