I thought it was hilarious what they got me. I won't go into details but they weren't too bad lol. Nothing too rude or over the top, just some funny, joke-like ones. Somethings only 16yo girls would think about getting me :P :D
An 18 year old boy? :P

Happy Birthday. :D
I wish lol :P :D

thanks

At 5pm, I went and picked up my brand new Ford Fiesta from the dealership!!

She is a beautiful 5 door automatic, in a gorgeous ocean blue colour, with currently only 16 kms to her name!!

What to name her? What to name her?!

The first song I heard when I turned the radio on was 'Electric Blue' by Icehouse.. So, I'm thinking that's a sign to make her name something to do with her colour haha! :P

Love always, Alyssa xoxo
And here she is :)

Love always, Alyssa xoxo

LOL nice car, I don't fit in toys but each to their own. Nice little chickmobile. :wink:

What made me happy today was finding out that someone I trusted that someone I trusted, who I had every right not to trust, came through. Every brick knocked out of the wall brings it closer to an open plain again.

I went on a physics trip today..... It was SO fun!!!! :D
Left at 3am & went to Dreamworld on the GC (so, 6hrs in a mini bus). Dreamwolrd was alright, most of the rides were fun. Only bad part was having to collect data from a few rides..... this failed terribly :?
But the bus ride home was the best! I didn't know it could be so much fun! :D We got up to some mischief at the back of the bus while the teacher was sleeping..... lol, I had heaps of fun & couldn't stop laughing :lol:
At the end we were just singing at the top of our lungs, completely random songs like Old MacDonald, Happy Birthday etc lol :D :P

I was practicing driving in my backyard today. I don't have my learners yet, I can get them anytime.... I just need to build up the courage togo for it lol :P
We have a reasonably small backyard & I managed to do what was supposed to be a 3 point turn..... It ended up being about an 18 point turn lol. but I did it!!!

Although, I now know that the clutch is NOT my friend! I hate it & it hates me! I think I stalled the car atleast 20 times, if not more! :oops: :D :P

But it was fun! :D

Took me 40 minutes to drive from Watsonia to Wantirna this morning, making an offer to a very good job prospect (and getting a "yes"); getting through the day without going (more) insane, coming home, double scotch on the rocks with a splash of drambuie.
