Waaah!
I broke down on the Ipswich motorway on the way home. The engine started smoking. Then I got towed to a servo, then RACQ came out but they can’t do anything at the moment so now I’m waiting for another tow truck to tow me home. Whinge! Hope it doesn’t take too long
Heading off to Ipswich for a lady date with Min (we’re going to eat cupcakes and play board games and probably talk about our boyfriends hahaha) then La Dispute with Joel tonight.
We’re having our friends (his friends but I get on well with them) over for Australia day bbq tomorrow. After not hearing back from a single one of my “friends” I’ve finally decided I...

The Boy Who Lived Before. Little Cameron Macaulay was a typical six-year-old, always talking about his mum and family. He liked to draw pictures of his home too - a long single-story, white house standing in a bay. But it sent shivers down his mum’s spine -…

Day 16- Your views on mainstream music
Each to their own.
I may not listen too a huge amount of it (all though it’s not like the music I listen to is really underground or anything) I just listen to music I like. If it happens to be a mainstream song or artist then so it is.

Day 14- Your earliest memory
I have a vague memory of being carried inside by my dad late one night after we had been at dinner or something and I had foot bashed against my mothers green car as he was carrying me and I cried a lot but I would have been under a year old at that point so I’m not sure if I just “remember it” because I’ve been told the story. I really can picture it though.
My earliest...

And the most upsetting thing is that this will probably not have any reblogs. We matter too.
Yeah well, I’m from Australia and it’s bothering me too. Every time someone brings up the floods here to me I always ask them if they’ve heard what’s been going on in…
I just signed up for ‘Adopt a family’ providing one meal a week to a family dealing with the aftermath of the flood. If you’re interested in doing the same there is more information here - http://cooks-notebook.blogspot.com/2011/01/baked-relief-adopt-family.html

Day 13- Somewhere you would like to move or visit
Hmmmm, I’m not sure… I won’t be moving anywhere properly for a long time. All though we have talked about maybe having a year in Tanzania after I finish work but I’ll see. I’ve lived in a lot of places and for the time being I’m happy settled in Brisbane.
But places I would like to visit, there are lots. I want to continue spending time in Tanzania, I want to...

Day 10- Discuss your first love and your first...
My first kiss was nothing special. I don’t think I even really liked it, it was at boarding school I was pretty young, I thought his tongue felt really gross. There isn’t really much to discuss
My first love is something I’m only experiencing right now, which at 23 is I guess pretty late in life for that to happen (or maybe not, just all my friends have definitely been in love...
