Seaworld, and friends. in Adventures in paradise

I ended up having such a good day yesterday at Seaworld. I didn't even care that much at the $90 entry fee. It was good to hang out with Ayden and we only really went on the log ride (now called the 'Viking' ride) twice, as he wasn't feeling the best to go on any of the more faster rides. I was kind of thankful as I don't really like them anyway. We patted the sting-rays and watched the polar bears fighting with each other - that was pretty cool, as usually they just sit there and not do anything, but they were having a full-on tussle with each other in the water and we had the perfect view from the underwater viewing area. It was probably the highlight of my day there. The aquarium bit is always pretty cool. Such a massive tank full of huge sharks and turtles and schools of so many different types of fish. I have no idea how the sharks don't eat the other fish in there haha. Ayden took advantage of a discounted offer to pet and feed a dolphin. When I say 'discounted', I mean it was $128 down from $160 or something. There was no way in hell I was forking out that much considering how much I'd already paid to get in, so I let Ayden do it by himself. I video'd the entire thing and it was so cute watching the dolphin do all it's tricks and such. I'd post it here but the file is something like 2gb haha, so yeah no. I posted a photo to instagram of my day, and of course some hippie-chick was going on about the cruelty of animals being out of their environment and blah blah blah. I just kind of brushed it off. Whatever. It is what it is and they are well-looked after and monitored.

I took a random selfie whilst waiting for Ayden to finish with the dolphin lol. He said it felt like wet rubber haha.

My Gosh, I soooo need a haircut haha. It'll happen eventually.

I also somehow managed to get Ayden in a pic with me. I dunno what is with my friends being camera-shy all the time haha. I look terrible in this one, since I was going on about 4 hours sleep after finishing work six hours before I had to be on the train to make it there to meet Ayden on time.

I had to leave around 4pm because I wanted to give myself plenty of time to get back to Brisbane to meet some friends at Chermside that I hadn't seen in a while. Man, two buses and a train later, I FINALLY made it back. The second bus pulled into Chermside at 7pm on the dot, and my friends were already inside waiting for me in the food court. I couldn't believe it took three damn hours to get back. I really should have just hired a car. It would have been so much more convenient and quicker but probably would have worked out about $40 or so more expensive just in the cost of fuel, if that. I vowed next time that I would haha, plus there's none of this waiting around for delayed public transport. Not to mention that some girls on my first bus on the Gold Coast were BOGAN as heck. The bus driver was yelling at them and threatening to throw them off the bus lol. I was kinda glad to make it back to the train station. See, if I had driven, I wouldn't have had to witness that. I made a facebook status saying 'I feel like Gold Coast girls need their own category of bogan."

Anyway, I had an awesome time with Moe, Steve and Rhys at Chermside - or Germside as Moe calls it. I call it Spermside. I hadn't seen Rhys in the longest time, so it was especially good to see him as well :) Such a good guy. We laughed and carried on so much, laughing about sex and other guys and fetish's other guys are into. Oh boy, you can't buy friends like that, just hilarious. I managed to get a pick with Rhys and Steve, but the one with Moe didn't turn out that well so I didn't bother uploading it cos I knew he'd get up me :P

Steve gave me one of his donuts.
