8 days later...

so i got engaged last wednesday and wouldn't you know it, one of my best friends cath (or cate as she gets called here in canada) goes and gets herself engaged aswell. YAY!!! every summer, since i was 17, cath and i would make a pact. it went something like 'this time next year, we'll be dating the men we are going to marry'. seriously. but last january, neither of us were dating anyone and we didn't make that pact. can you believe. and now, a year later, we are both engaged. congratulations to cath and shanksy (also known as michael). only bummer is now we'll probably have to miss each others weddings. we always said we'd be each others bridesmaids too. oh well.
anyway, so i thought it appropriate to share photo's of time spent with cath in melbourne. the first ones are when we were out to dinner. then the next lot are when we had to help cath make a video for music camp. we had to be freaks. i was an albanian ninja, then a swedish samuri snowman. you get the idea. enjoy.
