DAY FIVE. 17/10/09

Good morning Sunshine, another early rise. Inland today. On our way back to Melbourne. Load up the car, quick get in and off we go. Drive, drive, drive. There are these amazing fields of yellow flowers, they go for like acres. So many cows and sheep. Dairy farm. The hills and the valleys all still remind me off and English country side. Almost to Ballarat, what will we do here?? Drive, drive, drive. Yay...we're here! but what to do.......how about Solverign Hill? Solverign Hill is an outdoor museum set around the 1850s gold rush in Ballarat, Victoria, Australia. Lets pan for gold. Lets watch a guy melt gold. See the Chinese camps. Watch a man make a wheel like in the 1800s. Go underground in the mines. How about go shopping like we're in the 1800s?? Everything was very interesting. I ended up buying a really nice necklace which looks like a miniature fog watch and a candle which i got to colour myself :D. Lets go watch a presentation. Its a man trying to sell...gunpowder?? its fricken hilarious. I'm tired lets go have a quick look at the gold museum and have dinner. Where will we have dinner??? thank you trusty navigator...Hogsbreath here we come. I'm full, lets go get a mcflurry from maccas. Wow we still have to go all the way to Melbourne....it wont be too long. Oh we're here already, i must have dozed off. Ashley Gardens...nice name for a motel. Washed my clothes. I seem to be very tired, time for bed. Goodnight and see ya tomorrow.

DAY SIX. 18/10/09
Melbourne today. Shopping. Wake up sunshine its....10:30, crap. Get dressed...its cold outside. Get into the car for the last time, trams and buses for us after this. Drop the car off at the rent-a-car place. Time for a walk. There are lots of weird people in Melbourne...weird fashion, weird hair....weird everything. Fascinating :) Wow I haven't been in a Myer in like 3 years. Holy crap that leather jacket is like 1500 dollars. Country Road <3 but not today, maybe tomorrow. Still walking, across the bridge. Theres a street performance. These guys a fucking hilarious....when they're done we give them $10. Time to go have a look around Southbank. Its Sunday so the markets are on. I buy dutch pancakes. These are like the cutest markets, they're under a bridge. Mum stops to look at this guy whose painting these wicked keyrings and stuff, hes very talented. After buying one we're off again. I'm thirsty so we go to boost juice. What are all those people dressed up doing?? Anime Convention...where? Wow this is so cool...lets get our nerd on! umm well no i don't think we're gonna pay to get in, maybe some other time (or never). Lets walk to the bus stop and go back to the hotel. This is taking forever, in the car it only took half an hour. No relaxation time....we're going ice skating :) Dammit another bus ride. Damn its freezing in here. Ice skating is fun and i'm surprisingly good at it. My two brothers and I are having fun ice skating while my daddy takes pictures and ma mum is back at the hotel relaxing. Back to the hotel on the bus. Buy dinner. Watch X-men. Kon ban wa minasan. juu ichi ji ni nemasu...i think???

DAY SEVEN 19/10/09
Time to get cho nerd on...for real :) Star Wars Exhibition on our last day in Melbourne. Bus, bus, bus...so many asian drivers who don't understand bloody English. At South Bank. The best way to get to the science centre is to get a ferry. Ugh boats make me sick :( Nice view through. From the ferry we walk to the science centre. There is a giant r2d2 on the roof :0 We go inside an buy our tickets. The exhibition is full of all the costumes and props that were in the movies. It also has a whole lot of interactive scientifical things like making a robot move and making a magnetic car move. Its really fun. After that we have lunch outside....did i mention that there were like a cajillion school kids everywhere making it really hard to do anything. After lunch we go back into the science centre and play around with all the sciency stuff. Mum and I wanna go see the exhibition called 'A Day In Pompeii' at the Melbourne Museum so we walk like a km to the train station. The train ride takes forever....well it feels like it. When we get at the station we go up an escalator...its so high! and steep! walking, walking, walking....yay we're here :) The exhibition is amazing. There are so many interesting facts about the day Mt Vesuvius erupted and buried Pompeii and threes even a 3D movie. After spending like 3 hours there we're going on a tram :) i like trams. Then another bus. We're back at the place we're staying. We get dinner. Pack coz we have to leave early tomorrow and watch the TV. Time for bed....early. Goodnight.

DAY EIGHT 20/10/09
We're up bright and early. Quick breakfast before we get in the taxi and go to the airport. At the airport we wait seriously 5 minutes to get on the plane and we're off. The lady is coming down the isle with all the food and stuff, I think i'll get a muffin while I watch 'X-men origins: Woverine' on dads computer. Landing. We're in Rockhampton airport! Time to go home. That was a good holiday....back to school :(

Sorry bout the wait...i've been really, really, really with assignment and such.

Love Pixii xoxox.

13/10/09 to 16/10/09

Dear Phyllis...

This post will be in sections for all the different days :)

DAY ONE. 13/10/09
Today we leave Rockhampton. 34 degrees Celsius to a cold 16 degrees. Tiger (or povo) airways we are flying all the way to Melbourne, Victoria. It's 9:45 and we are in the line waiting to check in...''The flight has been delayed, the new departure time is 1:30." You gotta be joking .............................................waiting, waiting, waiting. Over the loudspeaker ''flight blah blah blah to Melbourne has been delayed the new departure time is 3:30 and arrival will be 7:50'' A whole day wasted. Arriving in Melbourne is hell. Povo Airways make you walk about a km off the plane in the freezing rain. Walking, walking, walking...where is the damn rent-a-car place. Ooh heated seats...my day just got alot better. We're in Geelong now? well I must have fallen asleep. We're staying in this shitty little cabin? I have to share a room with the boys? NO...Oh well maybe tomorrow will be better.

DAY TWO. 14/10/09
Couches are uncomfortable. Yes I slept on it last night...the boys talk in their sleep. It's 10am already, ohhh Victoria's an hour ahead of Queensland. Werribee Open Plane Zoo today better get snug. Put on ma jeans and and my faux fur hoodie :) Oh shit its freezing. Drive, drive, drive this trip is taking like an hour and a half. The countryside is nice, it kinda reminds me of somewhere in England even though I've never actually been there. OMG a sign...we're almost there! oh wow a mansion and gardens too. I like old things. Oh noes its raining. And its stopped. And it's raining again...WTF? I guess its time to go on the safari bus thingo. Look there are bunnies everywhere...as my friends from properties would say, shoot em'. Antelope, Bison, Zebras, Emus, African dogs, cheetahs, sleepy lions, camels, giraffes, meerkats, rhinos walking in front of the bus.....AMAZING. This zoo is the shiz. A quick stop at the souvenir shop...i bought a snow leopard poster to go on my wall to match my quilt. A quick stop at the mansion and gardens....meh not that interesting. Back to the cabin thing. Recreation Room. Bed.

DAY THREE. 15/10/09
Pack, pack, pack we're leaving this place and going on the GREAT OCEAN ROAD :) Driving through the hills, me likey. First stop...Queenscliff. A little walk around the cute little town. A stop at the sweet shop to buy my new favourite lolly...tiny tots. Posting a letter at the little post office. Then going for a drive around. The old buildings are magnificent, the old trees are beautiful, the old army fort is???? um well is pretty cool. Too bad dad forgot his air force pass we could have had a look around. Oh well we're back on the Great Ocean Road now. Quick stop at Bells Beach... some crazy dudes are surfing even though it must be like 0 degrees in the water. Next stop...a lighthouse?? Aireys Inlet lighthouse to be exact. How nice but a tad boring....next. Lorne is the place to be when your eating lunch....damn seagulls. Shopping is fun even though it is raining. New bag, new shirts. Drink at the tavern and off we go again. Windy roads are fun....especially at 50kms an hour...yep :) The windy roads up the mountain with the beach on one side and the bush on the other are beautiful. Final destination for today: Apollo Bay. This is seriously the cutest town on Earth....loves,loves,loves,loves. We stayed in a beautiful house near the beach. When I grow up I am going to decorate my house just like it. My bed looks comfortable. Goodnight.

DAY FOUR. 16/10/09
Up bright and early, we're going for a walk. Along the path there is a pony club....it is practically on the beach. At the end of this path there is a platform...the only way to get to the beach is to walk farther but we have to get back. Ahhh the rain is falling run,run, run. In the car we drive and drive and drive a little bit more until we get to a turn-off saying the Ottway Lighthouse Station. Two hands up wanna go....that's good enough. 7km of winding bush to get there. STOP! there is a wild koala walking on the side of the road. Amazing. After pictures we're on the road again. The Ottway Lighthouse is amazing. Not only was it a lighthouse it was also a radar station in WWII. There were also a bunch of cows on a cliff...that what i call ocean front estate. Seeing inside the lighthouse, walking through the house where people used to live in the 1800s and seeing a radar station I've had my fix and I'm ready to hit the road again. Driving along the road to get back to the main road a bunch of cars have stopped on the sides of the roads and people are getting out. Koala's! There must be a dozen. There was mummy koala and it's baby. Next stop is one of the most famous landmarks in Australia...The Twelve Apostles. They are even better in real life. Posing in front of them is much fun :) Eating sandwiches in front of them is fun too. Some jackasses thought they were cool because they went out where it was dangerous...i just thought they were jackasses. After departing from that truly amazing landmark we set off on out drive to Port Campbell. This little pittstop was nice and we bought lunch and had hot chocolate. Walking up the main street is nice because it is not very busy. Lets buy postcards....mine had the twelve apostles. Only half an hour to the hotel. Its been a long day. The London Bridge...whats that?? Stopping we find the coolest rock formation that looks like a bridge. Some Russian girls want me to take they're photo. I find this formation just a fascinating as the 12 Apostles. Fairy Bay...what can I say? Cute. Sweet Store. Potato cakes instead of potato scallops. .The motel we stay in is nice. What will we be up to tomorrow??

Stay tuned....photos maybe :)

Love Pixii xoxo.

Dear Phyllis

*pinch and a punch* for the first day of the month. :)...2 days late

Well nothin much is happening...at all.
On Friday I did nothing except veg at home and do some chores.
Yesterday was a different story...

Yesterday I went shopping with my nana. I bught new school shoes and sun glasses. The guy that fit my shoes was really hot XD haha and I got avitors. I also applied for a job at city beach :) maybe i wont be poor anymore. We also had lunch with my mum who started her new job in the shopping centre. After that we went to the auction yards and looked at stuff. There was a pretty sweet drum kit but i dont have any money to bid for it. Then we went to officeworks and drove home. I fell asleep coz im cool like that.

Today I did nothing again. Most of the day I caught up with my friend Liz. I miss her so much. Then tonight I watched 'The Incredibles' and right now i'm watching 'I, Robot'. W don't have free to air at home but I like it :D

Tomorrow it's my little brothers birthday and we're having a birthday party. I feel superbad coz i haven't bought him anything even though i said I would. I might make a card tomorrow morning.

Crap school starts again on Tuesday. Not looking forward to it at all. It's alright though coz we're going to Victoria for like a week on the 13th so I only have to endure like 5 days of school...yay :D

Oh and i'll post some fotos of my breakfast the other day. It amused me. I'll post a story with it to. Oh and those bio thingos.

haha "i'm 34 and i'm a virgin by choice." that was just on an ad.

Goodnight, Pixii xoxoxox
