Substitutiary Culination

We love to cook.  It can be an expression of creativity as well as your love for the people you are cooking for.  What we love less, is organisation – sometimes we cook something interesting at short notice, and a particular less common ingredient might be missing from the cupboard.  Or perhaps a common ingredient [...]

delayed news – law school

I will maintain that I am not old but it’s only just occurred to me that I could post about getting into law school – so that’s what I’m doing. After scoring a not too shabby 93.8 on the DULSAT (Deakin University Law School Admissions Test), I have been accepted to study for the Bachelor [...]

Homework

For my drama homework I have to study a person and the way they walk and talk and behave for a week. When I got home I told Dad about it. We were talking and Dad said would it be like stalking? Then i said not really. Dad then said maybe I should write you [...]

Road Trip

We’re going on a road trip for Easter, more specifically a Great Ocean Road trip :) We’re ditching all our responsibilities, Easter masses will cope without us, families and friends can see us another time, the grass can grow and the household to do list can remain undone, cos we are having some time away [...]

): I broke my arm again :(

A week or so ago, me and the scouts were going to the Bayswater Roller rink. At about 9 though, I fell and broke my wrist. It hurt and I was hysterical. The staff called the ambulance, when they got there they gave me the magic whistle to take away the pain and it made [...]

Vegie Patch

“Thanks clouds” I shouted to the clouds. Of course actually I don’t think I want to tell you about my vegie patch. Nah, just tricking. I thanked the clouds because they gave us lots of rain and our carrots are just starting to poke out of the ground.

Uncle Jase

While I’m already Uncle Jase to Bec and Liz, Mark and Bern’s kids, as of Wednesday Tuesday May 8 I’m now an official uncle. Mike and Rach had their first baby, after some reluctance to be born Rohan James Parlevliet entered the world at 12:17, weighing 3.4 kg, or 7lb 8oz in the old money [...]

The Forgetting of Wisdom

I’m getting my wisdom teeth out tonight. They weren’t working anyway… I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow maybe. UPDATE : Friday – Not much to tell, it all went very smoothly, not much swelling, no bleeding. Taking Mersyndol Forte every three hours, and a Nurofen in between sometimes if it still hurts, but the [...]

Jamboree

Ashleigh is gone for two weeks to the 2007 Scout Jamboree. That’s an awful long time for our little girl to be gone, but it will seem like just a few moments to her I guess. There’s some awesome activities, shows and stuff, she is gonna be exhausted when she gets back. Lucky we’ve all [...]

Never stops….

Ash broke her left arm on Friday. Mucking about at school, tripped over a friend and landed on her hand. Greenstick fracture of one bone, clean break on another, cast to just below her shoulder for four weeks at least. She’s sore but dealing with it OK. While we were waiting in casualty, she did [...]
