Funniest story ever

Hey you guys and gals

I'm so sorry to have been away for so long, but GAH uni so much work, so many battles. To make it up to you all i'm telling you about Kate's party. You've probably all seen all the facebook groups refering to it, so this website will explain the story behind it. I honestly fell on the floor with stomach pain because I laughed so hard at it.

Here is what I found on know your meme about it:

This screen was taken fairly early on in the event

Kate’s friend organised a birthday party for her on 1 May 2010 via facebook & posted it as an open event (not know how to privatise it).
Free alcohol wasadvertised & every hour the amount of attending guests doubled & tripled until there were around 80K worth of people claiming they would fly over to Adelaide, Australia just to go to Kate’s party.

This caused a riot of humorous pages & groups to be formed, giving Kate ultimate “facebook fame”.
Many fans changed their display picture to one of Kate, or something Kate related.

Unfortunately the same friend who started the commotion also ended it. She later deleted the event causing thousands of hopes & dreams to be shattered..

Luckily the real Kate (Kate Miller) made “Kates REAL birthday party”, which she didn’t know how to privatise either. There’s significantly less going to this party (around 10K), but it’s still impressive.

During these events private information about Kate was given out by someone on her friends list. This included her personal home address (North St., Adelaide, Australia 5000) & mobile phone number (0425943708 or 0419317446 as two numbers were handed out by a close friend). Poor Kate.

Since then it has also become a meme on encyclopedia dramatica.

Hey guys here's the new controversial Lady Gaga video, banned on MTV apparently, allegedly due to sexy racy murder. Personally I think you should watch it with caution due to the high level of amazingness of it all. Tell me what you think

181 Domain Cafe' Bar - 181 Domain Road, South Yarra.

Located in a popular commuting route from the Eastern suburbs to the city area, 181 Domain is the perfect place to stop on you way to work or play. The range of baked products is substantial and the quality of these products impeccable. I opted to go for the raspberry and apple muffin (i LOVE muffins), along with a cafe' latte' that was well up to my lofty standards. Lachsley smashed out a fresh orange juice with a muffin of the same variety. The dough was moist and the top crisp, with a warm middle that was not the result of microwaving (a good thing!). The dining area has an up-market metropolitan feel and offers a comfortable atmosphere to sit and eat, or drink to your heart's desire.

Get out there,

Mr. Harvey

Cafe' Ray - 332 Victoria St, Brunswick

CONTINUED!


Cafe' Ray is located at 332 Victoria Street, Brunswick and provides a quintessentially Melbourne feel and relaxed atmosphere to its dedicated band of local regulars (as well as those - like me - that are willing to commute there!). A small range of high quality baked goods are available and not one item ever disappoints.


Yesterday (the 23rd), I ventured to Cafe’ Ray whilst my Mumster and Good Grief were at the supermarket and Spotlight. On this occasion I selected a blueberry, coconut and almond meal tart with a decadent yet light pastry crust. It was distributed evenly with ripe berries and sprinkled with crisp desiccated coconut. The almond meal offered a light cakey texture to the tart centre. At just $3.50 I could enjoy this baked delight on an economic level on top of its perfect sensual properties.


I thoroughly recommend this quiet achieving little cafe’ for any occasion.

La Paloma - 259 Albert St, Brunswick

La Paloma is a favourite cafe’ of mine and is located at 259 Albert Street, Brunswick. As hinted at by its name, La Paloma offers a delicious insight into the culinary culture of simple Spanish food. The wonderfully “no-frills” environment radiates coolness and makes for the perfect scene to enjoy a strong cafe’ latte’. From the terrazzo paved floor, to the soccer paraphernalia and classic tunes being played through the owner’s beloved record player (yes a real turn table!), La Paloma provides an all round enjoyable experience for patrons.


From La Paloma it is just a short walk down Sydney Road to Savers, Don Bosco op-shop, Aldi and episode, amongst numerous other Brunswick icons. To get to this famous cultural epicentre of northern Melbourne all one has to do is catch the Route 19 tram towards North Coburg from Elizabeth Street in the city!


After enjoying one of Melbourne’s best coffees at La Paloma and buying a couple of cans of Aldi tomato soup (my favourite!!) I felt peckish for something in the cake family...
