Elissa's graduation, my kite surfing and my employment prospects

Today, Elissa received her Master of Applied Anthropology degree from Macquairie University. The University motto is "And gladly teche". I thought perhaps they should teche bettar Englich, but I later discovered it was a quote from Chaucer, and we all know his spelling was pretty dodgy. We were shown an aboriginal dance of some sort during the ceremony, which was a new thing for me. Afterwards Elissa's parents, her sister and brother-in-law, and her friend Bec came round for a few drinks and a meal. They were all very proud, and in good spirits. Elissa was exhausted, but I think she was pretty happy to see everyone, and pick up her certificate properly.

Earlier in the day I had organised a day's kite surfing, and set myself up for a job for the next two weeks. I'll keep you posted on how that goes!
