I actually took this on the 31st but I have a better picture for that day and I didn't take any pictures today. I didn't feel like it. Instead I was lazy and watched Grey's Anatomy and Sea Patrol all night.
Tonight I went shopping with Mel and her Italian exchange student, Sara. Also another Italian student, Silvio. We listened to Silvio play the guitar (very well) in the music shop then Sara, Mel and I went out to dinner. Had a great night.
Happy 18th Birthday to me! I was so spoilt today and had such a wonderful birthday. Mum and Dad not only bought me my ring (which I had picked out a few months ago) but my very own sewing machine! Grandma came today on the train which is great. And I had that famed glass of champagne when we went out to Indian for dinner. Such a great day.
We went couch shopping today which is really code for all of us bickering (all in good fun) and then Mum, Liz and I ganging up on Dad. I found the best place for taking photos today. It's totally secluded which means I don't have randoms staring at me while I run back and forwards trying to beat the self timer.
Today I was supposed to go with Mel to pick up our Italian visitors from the airport but my head was pounding like someone was running it over with a frieght train over and over again and panadol was just not working so I didn't go. So there goes my photo idea for the day. Luckily I took so many photos the next day I can just use one of those.
Liz looks cool sometimes. Mostly when she's wearing those crazy furry jumpers she has. This has gone funny now that I've uploaded it for some reason. I have no idea if it's just my computer because it looks fine everywhere else. Oh well.
Lunch-time awesomness. Basically we just sit there and talk about stuff until half-bell when Fi just has to to the toliet or she'll die. Or just wet her pants.
Mum and I have been watching Grey's Anatomy this weekend and I've decided that if all doctors are like Cristina, I never want to set foot in a hospital.
My Aunty Robyn had this tag on my Christmas present last year. She always has the coolest presents. Last year it was a fishermans cap and a swishy trench coat. I plan on visiting her after school finishes.
My creepy Harry Potter charm is supposedly meant to make me do better in my studies so he hangs out on my desk. I can only hope that he helps on August 2nd, when exam results come out.
So when I said it was Fiona's birthday. It was actually just her birthday party. Her actual birthday is today. So HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY FI! Homework day today. Only three days of the holidays left.
Birthday party time tonight! It was Fiona's birthday and we went to the movies to see Toy Story 3. I thought I was going to cry towards the end. Great film. Mel and I hung around afterwards to take stupid pictures and fall off rocks.
Hmm... I certainly wasn't going to be cooking today as I have spent most of my days cooking for the past three days. So instead I rode down the street to buy birthday presents. And why is it that as soon as I buy the present, leave the shop and turn round the corner the person who the present is for just happens to be standing there?
BEST. PIE. EVER. And it was made by Liz and I. Apples from Mum's friends garden and raspberries enclosed by a mouthwatering buttery pastery. Pure genius wrapped up in a pie. I want more.
I bought this awesome necklace from the chemist of all places. I love the little bird sitting on it's perch. I made Osso Buco today for Mum and Dad. Mostly for Dad, who loves stew things like that. 6-7-10
I made lemon tarts today. We have all these bowls of lemons sitting around from a friend's lemon tree and I was bored. So what else can you make with lemons but lemon tarts right? 5-7-10
Mess in the morning. Which I later cleaned up after doing the usual holiday things. For the first time probably ever I am actually looking forward to Summer. I want to wear my overalls and visit my Aunty and go to New Zealand. 2-7-10
My hair is long! I cut it all off (not literally, I still had hair: it was just up past my shoulders) at the end of year 9 and now half-way through year 12 it's all grown back! 1-7-10
Last day of June. It's going by so fast. This year, I mean. But I'm not going to get sentimental. Today I did... nothing. Big surprise. The whirl-wind that was the last two days has tired me out so it's back to watching TV for today.
This blog is a document, one of many, of my final year in high school. By (hopefully) completing taking a photo a day for the whole of 2010, I will give you an insight into my life. And who am I? I am me, Louise.
