Today is my 24th Birthday (ANZAC Day) but we celebrated last night at my place with some drinks and some cake. By the way, Mai says to ignore the cake writing because the lady who did it seemed very new and missed the “Happy Birthday”. Haha!!

Then some of us went to Club XS up at Entertainment District for some HIP-HOP AND R&B. YEAHHHHHH! The music was banging. Totally loved it!

Special thanks to Mai and Louise for helping me set up. Mai especially for the cake and helping me clean up! The place was an absolute mess afterwards!

Thank you to everyone for coming!! Means a lot to me. :) :)

Upon missing home, I thought what a better way but to celebrate my birthday with fellow Aussies. My birthday always falls on ANZAC Day every year (April 25) and the YACA (Australian Canadian Association) celebrates this event every year.

This year it was held at Scallywags and had the following events:

• ANZAC Biscuit Tasting
• Two-Up Game Play
• Australian Trivia
• Australian T-Shirt Competition
• Australian Goods Raffle (Cherry Ripe, Wagon Wheel, Twisties, etc.)

It’s funny because after going to this event, I realise how incredibly un-Australian I am. While I love ANZAC Biscuits, I don’t know what they’re made of. While I love to play games, I’ve never played two-up in my life. I couldn’t answer a single question in the Australian Trivia game, I don’t own a single Australian clothing item and I had no real particular appeal to buy a raffle ticket for those Australian goods……..

Scallywags also offered some yummy fish & chips :)

Nonetheless, it was fun :) I finally got to speak to someone about bogans and footy.

Thanks to Shirley, Ed, James (Tiu) and Matt for accompaning me. :)

Here are some pics below, but there are more on my Flickr.
