election

As you all know, today is the federal election. I voted on thursday with my good friends Cara and Steff.

When you think about it, whatever happens today, we get a new prime minister.

21 today

"Are you really 21? I thought you were, 18!" - one of my mcdonalds co-workers

Last night I had a sleep over. Unfortunately, only Spatch came, but I didn't mind, because we had heaps of fun anyway.

We talked lots, watched a really bad movie, and really bad early morning tv.

And then this morning, she made me S-shaped pancakes.. with VEGEMITE!


and the day has just begun (ok it's 1pm, I'm still in my PJ's and waiting for my mum to arrive).

Sometimes I look at 21 as being "this is it", because now I'm just going to get old old. Not older but OLDER! But then, I think there is a beauty of being the baby of the group - I've watched my friends turn 21 and some 23 this year. My housemate will be 26 tomorrow. This gives me some hope that not only will I always have friends a bit older, but I've watched them have equally as much fun and sometimes equally as much immaturity.

Ah tonight shall be awesome! Stay tuned!

It is exactly one year today since my Grandpa passed away.

I still miss him so much. To think that at his funeral, an exact week after, I would be flying to Indonesia in a years time. To think that I am nowhere near the person I was standing next to that grave as I am today. But the one thing that hasn't changed is how much I miss him, and am glad about so many good genes of him I have.

Sometimes, just the thought of him makes me smile - thinking, "he was a good chap"

Eggnog, anybody?

Today Cara and I ventured to Melbourne for almost only one purpose - to find Santa.



Mission successful, and Mez came too! Eggnog chickened out (you know who you are!)
