Here is what I have been up to since losing the Internet. . . .

YEARLY EXAMS

That picture above is my hand. I wrote that during the history/geography exams to keep myself sane. Exams are awful aren't they?

LEARNED THE HISTORY OF LEGO

That sign was attached to a cork board in Coles. You know the ones where people try to sell stuff or in this case gain stuff. I took the picture and a random lady that had been browsing the board started telling me and my sister all about the guy that invented Lego. Quite random but the story was inspiring. No one liked Lego when the guy invented it, he couldn't sell it, he couldn't even give it away. His wife left him apparently because he couldn't make any money. When he got famous though and people started seeing how awesome it was he like built a house out of the stuff. I love informative strangers.

PLAYED ON SOME FREAKING AWESOME SPRINGY THINGS

When you are younger these park fixtures seem like the baby ones. The toddlers sat on them while teetering back and forth a little, it looked like fun, if you were a baby. That changes when you are too tall for them. They become awesome. Doubly awesome because I can rarely use the phrase "I'm too tall for it".

Getting in and out of that fish one was extremely difficult for me, but it was worth it. You throw your weight around to the extreme, they aren't made for teenagers so they bend a twist like no bodies business. I had the sides of it hitting the ground at one stage. I'm quite immature.

I TOOK MANY PICTURES OF MY FEET IN VARIOUS PLACES

At a park
Beneath the table at East Port Bowling Club, along with the feet of a few other people. Guess which ones are mine? I wear those shoes a lot.

I think that's in my lounge room. ODD SOCKS!

I HAVE ADDED VARIOUS THINGS TO MY WALL

For some time now I have been adding various pictures and things I have been given to my wall. Someone draws me a picture my first thought is "That is going on my wall." Kind of like on that extremely Australian movie the castle where the dad says to anything worthy "That is going straight to the pool room". You know when I first saw that movie I didn't realise Eric Bana was in it? I have a poster of The Time Traveller's Wife in my room. Eric Bana covers half that poster. I didn't recognise the guy through the whole film! Same thing happened with another extremely Australian movie called the Nugget that Eric Bana is in. I've seen that movie like three times and I only noticed when I glanced at the cover the other day. I'm a silly one. Wow that went off topic a bit.

DROVE TO TAREE WITH MY SISTER, WENT TO HUNGRY JACK'S, WHICH IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN PORT, TOOK A PICTURE OF US EATING IT, SENT IT TO MY BROTHER, WHO ABSOLUTELY  LOVES HUNGRY JACK'S, WITH THE CAPTION "JEALOUS MUCH" 
ME-------><-SISTER
