Fruit Salad and Mixed Veg

Some things that have happened lately:

• I got sick at work on Saturday night. I wasn't feeling well so I drank a lot of water. I still didn't feel well. Then everything started getting darker...and I got dizzy...my skin felt like it had ants crawling over it... Sat down for a while and still felt horrible, so I went home. I feel better now though
  
  
• On Friday, I was at a masked ball (although I didn't wear a mask). I learnt that it's really hard to walk in high shoes if you have tights on, because they make the shoes slippery.
  
  
• This Friday, there is a BIG party at a mansion in Adelaide (100+ people). The theme is 'dress as something beginning with F'. I was going to go as a fax machine...but I changed my mind and will now be a fairy.
  
  
• I'm still doing exercise WOAH!! I can now run without getting puffed out after 1 minute
  
  
• I have been accepted to a German university as an exchange student *jump jump*
  
  
• In 1 month, I'll be in Germany
  
  
• I have exams in 2 weeks...I've started learning but it's going to be hard because all my subjects are FINAL YEAR subjects and I'm not in my final year
  

That's all for today. Take care of yourselves and make sure to read 'use by' labels

Welcome back to my blog (there should be a waving smiley)

It's my grandma's birthday on Tuesday so we took her out to lunch today. She said she wanted to go to 'Dundees Hotel/Dundees Crocodile and Wildlife Park'. *sigh* Yes, I actually sighed when I found out we were going there.


After 4.75 hours sleep, I travelled for 1.5 hours with my family to get to an 'all you can eat' restaurant, randomly placed on the side of a freeway...

$18 buys you 'all you can eat'...not that anyone would ever eat $18 worth of food.

Left to right:
Sister- Lots of carbs, some dead animal (iron and protein) and some veggies under there somewhere
Dad- Err weren't you looking up ways to lower cholesterol on the net last night? Well, ok you've got some protein there and some greens...but I don't know what the brown stuff is
Mum- You like potato, hey? Didn't we get 5kg of potatoes for $2 on Thursday? And you paid $18 for this...?
Grandma- sat too far away so didn't get a pic


My mum also ate some prawns. Nothing more classy than ripping out the intestinal tract of a dead sea creature at the dinner table


HOT WATER My meal...$0...best price EVER


I took a photo of this because it looks pretty Do you prefer rouns sprinkles or the straight sprinkles?

Then we went home I like looking out of the window at the country side which looked like this and this in spots.

This is in a village named Callington. I like clouds.


In other news...

My mum bought 3kg of oranges!!! Oranges make me happy. So does porridge. Porridges with oranges in it makes me super happy.


I baked a lemon and poppy seed cake last week. It was definately NOT the best cake I have ever made, probably because I kind of 'invented' the recipe and didn't put enough eggs in. I still ate it though


Puma shoes are really good in my opinion. Why? I've been wearing the same pair for 5.5 years and they have only started to 'die' recently. I refuse to pay over $50 for shoes, considering shoes priced at $100 are NOT worth $100 (I do learn stuff at uni that I can apply to real life woah! )

I found some Converse shoes in a brochure for $50. When I got to one store the woman said
'Oh it's only the blue ones that are $50. The gold are $80'
Me- So a different colour is $30?!
Woman- Yes...
Me- You can keep the shoes then

Then I went to another store (the same store but a different location) and took the gold shoes to the check-out. They wanted to charge me $80 for them too! However, I used my knoweldge of small print and generally annoyed the staff and got them for $50


I also bought a warm polar fleece jumper recently. It's from Paddy Pallin, an outdoor shop where the staff are soooo much more friendly and helpful than the staff in the store I got my shoes from. I asked the guy for a student discount and got one

With my new jumper, I can ride a bike, go hiking and mountain climbing. Wow, a whole world of opportunities awaits me and my jumper
