Love the holidays ♥

Holidays xx


Beautiful blue skies greet us when we wake in the morning,
I usually am the one who sleeps in!
Eating some sugary cereal
Which isn't allowed normally
Snuggling up to the wood fire
Or sitting in the sun,
reading a book.
Last night we sat around the fire pit
Talked
Listened to the footy on the radio
Ate pizza and marshmallows
Saw shooting stars
Pure magic.
We haven't been doing much
Just relaxing
Gone for walks 
Pranks which always result in laughter
Beautiful food,
cooked with love.
The pool has iced over
nearly every morning
The boys like
throwing leaves, rocks, ice, etc
over the frozen surface
Lazing on the couch,
falling into bed after a great day,
Just chatting,
Playing on the Playstation 3,
Playing Monopoly,
this has been my holidays
so far
and they're not even halfway
near the end yet!!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hahaha not sure if that was a poem for what, but it summarizes pretty much what the past couple of days have been like with my cousins here. And wasn't it much easier to read than boring old paragraphs???



Things I have learnt these holidays...
don't worry if some of these don't make sense to you...


♥ Make sure you bring enough fabric to re-cover chairs
♥ If you are going for a walk, wear a jacket
♥ Don't wear a red beanie if you are walking outside or the red-headed birds will follow you
♥ If you get an offer to help move wood, accept it
♥ It's okay to look a bit wild when your with family
♥ Remember to bring your towel before you get in the shower
♥ If you go walking when lunch is ready, expect to get the leftovers!
♥ Beary always makes things better
♥ Laughter is the best medicine
♥ Don't watch Project X
♥ Always have enough blankets at night
♥ Beware of your uncle's snoring
♥ Time goes fast--enjoy the moment while it lasts
♥ Bring your IPod charger
♥ Be yourself
♥ Don't expect people to drop everything to help you
♥ Don't shake up the ginger beer!
♥ Rides in the trailer are always good
♥ Don't let your pizza slip into the fire!!
♥ Make sure you're there when the marshmallow packet is opened or you'll miss out!
♥ Family will always be there, no matter what


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I better go now and enjoy spending time with family!!


Much love,


EJ

Am I crazy....... or???

Hey you guys! 

If you want to look at what has been happening...look at the post below.

But for now.......I am sharing with you this picture below. For some weird reason, it made me laugh. Why? I.have.no.idea.


Just thought it would bring a smile to your face.....maybe because you find it funny or maybe because you think it's funny that I find it funny.

Cya!


xxxxx


Later edit: Guess what??? This is my 100th post! What a long way I've come from my first...when I didn't have any followers and was about to stop blogging because nobody was reading it and I was a pretty damn pathetic blogger, writing about nonsense (actually, the first part of this post was about nonsense but ANYWAY........................) Fast forward to now, and I have 18 fabulous followers, regular peeps who comment and some great friends. Love you guys.....xoxo

Nearly here! :)

Hey there my lovely readers!
Hope you've had a lovely week so far, I know I have. ♥


Yesterday my family and I went shopping. I brought an awesome polar bear beanie--which is just like the picture except it's white. I love it--actually, I'm wearing it right now!! :) 
(it's from equip)

I also brought a pink beanie from cotton on which I also love. A pretty successful day of shopping--I only spent $25! It was nice getting out of town, but I love getting home after a long shopping day too. ;)


Well, my cousins are coming up from today (Friday) till Monday and they should be here soon, can't wait! xoxo
My extremely clever Aunty has made/brought me heaps of cool new things for my room and also the rest of the house, so they have had to bring a trailer to fit in all our new furniture!! 


Nothing else really has happened....so now I'll do the last bit like I did in the last post---


Nava: I have nearly finished your 1D fan fiction----PS: it is soooooo cool! so well written--can't wait for the next installment!!
Janaya: Sounds like you had an awesome shopping day! Alia sounds cute/annoying at the same time, am I right??
Bonnee: You enjoy your holidays too! Try and get the homework done if you don't have much so you don't have it in the back of your mind. ;)
Chanelle: I have been very snap-happy these holidays---today I got some photos of our pool which iced over because it was so cold!! I think on the last week/couple of days of the holidays I'll post the photos.




PS: if you are a regular reader and I missed out on you in this bit, let me know and I'll include you!!


Bye for now, but not forever.

An update!!

Hello everyone!


Feeling pretty damn awesome coz it is the HOLIDAYS and I am lovin it!


 I haven't done very much but lazing around the house, sleeping in, not doing any schoolwork, reading.....ahhh my idea of paradise! and it's only about the 2nd or 3rd day of holidays so far (yes I've already lost track!!) I don't have very much planned...on Thursday my family and I are going shopping, and on Friday my cousins are coming up for a holiday with us, which will be awesome as usual.

It really is all over.....(for now)

Hello again! Did you miss me? :-)

Today is my last day of school. Don't get me wrong, I am totally looking forward to a nice two week break, but for some reason I feel odd. NO WAY, I don't miss school! The conclusion I have come to is this- I think I have been waiting and waiting for this day to come, and now it's finally here, it feels like time has gone too fast. Do you know what I mean? Like, whenever I woke up on a Monday morning I was thinking- 'I wish it was the holidays so I wouldn't have to go to school!' also, whenever that double of Maths class rolled around every Tuesday I was thinking- 'I could be at the beach right now, if it was the holidays! Not doing Maths in a smelly old classroom.' But now, the holidays have started, and I'm sitting in the school library, waiting for Dad (who's a teacher, for those of you who don't know) and writing all this down.

Today the forecast was rain--but surprisingly there is blue sky and white fluffy clouds all round. The only downside is that the wind is quite choppy and it's still cold. I don't know why, or how, but I find that good weather lifts people's spirits. ♥

We had a different piano teacher today, I'm not sure why to be honest. We usually just sit at a keyboard and practise, but this new teacher said "How about we have a mini concert!"
everyone groaned at this, but the teacher didn't let that dampen her enthusiasm. "Come on, I'm sure you've all got pieces you can play!" So we all sat down on the floor like we're back in primary school, and watched as each person went up and performed a piece. I've got to say, it was better than just sitting there, playing non-stop for a whole hour as we usually do. A nice change, I suppose.

I also had English. Advanced English, btw. So my class is a large mix of different year levels, but anyway....the second last English class she gave us $20 worth of hot chips. Mmmmm yummy! But don't worry, the class finished them off quick! And today she gave us lollies---not saying that I'm complaining, but I have a teeny tiny feeling that she's trying to win our affection or something but how would I know? The main reason I think that is because none of my other teachers gave us anything, so.........

I don't really have much planned for my holidays, except for my cousins coming for a week. It'll be nice to see them again, they haven't even seen my new house yet!!

Well I'm going to go now, love you all,

EJ

From a phone!!

Heya my lovely readers! Hope you are a having a lovely week so far. So, as my blog title suggests, i'm writing this from a mobile phone! (mum's, if you wanna know!) it is so different from using a computer--so much smaller! But I suppose I better get used to it with technology these days... Well Monday was a pretty good day for me, once I got over that initial 'I hate Mondays!' syndrome. The highlight was science. I know I am as surprised as you are- I usually HATE science, as my regular readers would already know. ;) But I actually enjoyed science! I finished my rocket (with the help of two lovely MALE classmates!) and went outside onto the oval with my grade and we set the rockets off! Mine did very well, thanks for asking! (out of the ones of us who launched our rockets, Nate and I had the highest ones.) which I'm pretty proud of! The rest of the day was pretty so-so, but for some weird reason, I really enjoyed science! Maybe it wuz coz I had a good chat with some people I usually don't but who were really nice) or whether I got my rocket finished (FINALLY!), I don't know, so don't ask!! Today (Tuesday) was okay. As usual. Tuesday's are my least favourite days of the week so what could I expect?? It was ok--the main thing that got me through was the thought that 'it's nearly the end of the term!' Well, my friends, I better sign off now. There is free wi-fi at the library (where I am) do I'm gonna do some Internet surfing before my time runs out!! Love EJ xxxxx

A mixture of two...

Hey guys!


This post is going to be a mixture of two things--one is just the usual, and two is the FACTS ABOUT ME bit that my friend Nava (ginfragont.blogspot.com.au) has reccomended I do. But first and foremost- about my life at the moment :P


Well today is Friday (woo hoo!) and I am mega excited for the weekend, coz it's the last weekend till the HOLIDAYS!!! Yayayayayayay I need a break despreatly and thankfully one is coming! and it's only a week away!


Today wasn't actually that bad. I had the usual subjects, and the day went by pretty smoothly, easily, and I had a great time with my mates in each class. The only downside to today was that it was rainy, cold, windy....you get the picture! Actually, it's been pretty miserable weather all week, but it's winter, so what do you expect I guess.


I don't really have any plans for the weekend...might be going to go and see Brave in 2D at my local cinema, you might have heard of it, it's Disney Pixar's latest. But I know a definite must-see for me is Snow White and the Huntsman starring Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth. It looks amazing and it's had really good reviews, so I can't wait for that to be released! (some time next week, I think....?)


Okay well now I'm going to do the facts part of my post, and then sign off and wait till all my lovely readers comment---okay here we go!
