End of Monday Night Ultimate

So one of the highlights of my week for the past month has been gearing up on Monday nights to play Ultimate over in Yeronga with my team the Chimichungas , we've done pretty well in the past month, we're currently 2nd in the overall rankings , which isn't soo shabby. This all started on the first night of course when I told the story of getting lost, in the dark, and wandering all over southwest Brisbane by Bike... and eventually finding the field about 45 minutes later. However, things have smoothed out since then, I'm still riding my bike to the fields, but the commute has seemingly become much shorter and enjoyable. Mainly because UQ is back in session, and I actually see people on my ride to and from the field now.

But tonight was my final game with the team, who I've really gotten to know and who have become a sort of a second family here in Brisbane. It's funny how frisbee people are very nice. I think it's because they have a "nobody knows our sport, so we have to stick together" mentality. But they're really a fantastic bunch of people. Not even my team, but just everyone I've met so far in the league as well. But tonight we played a hard fought match between the UQ team, we were down about 6-0 in the beginning. I suspect just because of their youth and speed, they got to us early. Unfortunately, we ended up losing the game, but only by one point, which we were very close to evening the score.
I of course had to take a picture of the team before my departure!
After the game, the team went out to West End for a quick dinner, and just to socialize in general. I had a great time as their humor is quite good. Aussies are a funny bunch of people.

But oh yeah, I'm also doing reseach here in Queensland if you didn't know already, and I literally found the holy grail of research materials today from a tip from a professor in urban planning. I'm not going to go into too much detail, but it basically would have done me a whole lot of good if I would have gotten access to this stuff about 3 weeks ago... oh well, that's the way it works I suppose. Tomorrow I'm going to go back to campus and hack it out for a good portion of the day, tomorrow evening will be pretty uneventful besides the typical trip to the gym, and getting my last dinner at the Indooroopilly Lodge (I'll be playing frisbee on wed night as well).

It's kinda passing by quickly, but I suppose it's time to get moving on with life.
