I Might Not Be Dead...

Oh man it sure has been ages since I last blogged. And SO much has happened.

Shall we make like a fairytale and start at the beginning...?

Mooroopna-Melbourne Trip
So I went to visit my Grandma. It was pretty fun. I got to cook alot of yummy things and see my cousin and her little girl who is just adorable.
After hanging out there for a week I took the train back to Melbourne and stayed there overnight. I went to the ballet which was freakin AMAZING. I was 4 rows back and could see and hear everything so clearly. I could hear them land and the tulle of their tutu's rustle as they moved. It may have removed some of the magic but it was perfect for me.

This is the State Theatre on the outside, taken on my phone.

This is the view from the bridge. After the ballet I walked across here and found a litle Thai cafe where I had chicken, steamed vegies and rice. It was delicious.


The next day I caught up with my Aunty. We went to the Melbourne gallery to see an exhibition call From Mourning to Night: Black in Fashion History.

These pictures really don't do it justice. It was just amazing. Some of the 50's dresses look fresh off the catwalk. I really loved it.
After that we met up with my cousin for a quick lunch in a cute little alleyway full of eateries. I had a chicken foccacia. My aunty and I spent the afternoon trawling the shops. I found a beautiful purple camelia ring and we both found some cool art supplies.
Also some awesome graffiti.


About a week after I got back from Melbourne I started house sitting. This picture pretty much sums it up. The dog is Merlin and he's so beautiful. And then there's Jack the guinea pig. Merlin was OBSESSED with Jack. He didn't want to eat him, just to watch him. Everytime I got home Merlin would race out the door to show me Jack. It got ridiculous. But I did have a lot of fun with him. He plays soccer! Also I had people over for a dinner party or two and lots of after netball fun.

And I think that's pretty much caught up. I have a couple of big things happening so it should be interesting to see how the next few weeks pan out. I have a couple of fun posts in mind though.

Oh, how could I forget. Today I went underwear shopping with Sian and Emmo. It was awesome fun and I bought some fun girly things. Hooray.

Anyway I MUST SLEEP.
