First Post in Ages (Again)
It is, once again, my first post in ages. I've had another one of those no-journal periods, brought about by somebody else's disapproval of my throwing of privacy to the winds ( Read more... ) -
NSW/Vic Holiday #3 - The Steepest Train in the World
Watched 'The New Poseidon Adventure' last night with only dad, as Mum fell asleep. 'Twas not too shabby. But it went on FAR too long, when I was, strictly speaking, supposed to be in bed. Sheets had been tucked in so tight that I had to crouch against the wall and insert myself into bed like a piece of paper ( Read more... ) -
NSW/Vic Holiday #2 - Buses and Trains
Finally made it to the resort, but it hasn't been the most problem-free trip.

NSW/Vic Holiday #1 - Worst Landing Ever
Just arrived on a plane from Adelaide. Now in Sydney, miles away from my computer, but for the rest of my Blue Mountains holiday, I'll just write entries by hand (shudder), and then backdate them into the website when I get back home. Which should be approximately in a week and a day ( Read more... ) -
At Dad's Work With Fast Internet
Nothing much happening today. I'm at Dad's work on my laptop, connected to his work's fast internet connection, which opened up a few possibilities. First of which was doing all my software updates. Talked on MSN with people for a while, and I just tried to play runescape, (first time ever,) which was a failure, as it was unbearable laggy. I don't ( Read more... ) -
Many Many Simpsons Episodes and Dinner Out
Day at home today. Parents at work. Sister Bethany went to have allergies tested. Rachael and I stayed at home for the first part of the day and had a DIY Simpsons marathon with the 12 DVDs that we have. We watched . . . a surprisingly small percentage: 11 episodes, then Melissa came. Rain stopped, we went outside, and played handball, in which ( Read more... ) -
Trip To David's House
Went to David K's house today, which was fun. Watched The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which is the BEST MOVIE EVER. Watched Mythbusters. Watched the Simpsons. Went to Marion and looked around shops and went to Intencity. All good.
That's pretty much all that happened today. eragon_elite have STILL not responded to my request to join. -
Sixteen . . . Sixteen . . . Sixteen . . .
Whole family went on a car trip into the hills, down to Caracalinga, or however you spell it, for breakfast at a cafe, which was nice. Except for the car ride there. Bethany insisted on counting all the red cars. This would have been OK, except that between the cars, so that she didn't forget the number, she would say it over and over again until ( Read more... ) -
Working in the Garden
Have been working in the garden today and yesterday, my precious first two days of holidays. What a way to spend the first two days of holidays. This is one of the prime reasons why I hate summer. As we go further into the horrid season, my journal, it is inevitable that you will hear infinite whinging about how much I really hate summer. But as I ( Read more... ) -
Holidays!
Well, I no longer have glup in my throat. In the time since I last posted, my symptoms have passed through dry, infrequent painful cough, to semi-dry frequent non-painful cough, to not-dry very frequent not-painful cough. I do, however, feel that I am over the summit of the hill and running down the other side ( Read more... )
