Oh, I forgot to mention this- I am going to a fancy reception at one of the fanciest hotels in Padang :) Yeah, everyone at school is quite awed by me at the moment, because I got a faxed invitation from the Australian Government, inviting me to meet the Australian Ambassador and the Australian Consular or something like that. Anyway, all it means is that I registered with the Australian Embassy, really.
But I am stoked, because I am actually being allowed to go, even though it's during class time. So yay, a holiday from two classes, and making small talk with boring politicians! Woohh....meh.
Yeah, so maybe hanging out with pollies is not my favourite passtime. But I will also meet other Aussies in Padang, and I will see the inside of a fancy hotel, and I will hopefulyl get to eat fancy canapes, AND I will get to see what the hell kind of dress code 'Lounge Suit/ Batik' is...

Say hi to those big knobs for me! I would have thought that they'd be too busy puffing their chests out at muslims to talk to little school teachers. Maybe they think you're teaching bible studies.
