Jul. 4, 2009 - My SaTuRdAy

I stayed up late last night watching Supernatural season 2 and didn't wake up the next morning until 11! I was so sleepy, the first thing I did as soon as I got out of bed, was make myself a cup of sweet cuppacino coffee. I don't know how to spell that. Anyway, then I finished off season 2 then had a shower, got dressed and went to town.

While I was in town, I visited Erin at work to get her some change, give her a quick bathroom break and buy her something to eat. She had already bought something to eat so she was ok on the food. I jumped on the net for a quick five minutes to up-date on facebook and left. Dropped in on IGA to buy a bag of Red Rock Delli sweet chilli and sour cream chips plus a bottle of sasperella. Again, I don't know how to spell it. Then I went back home.

I didn't do very much when I came back home. I finished the last episode of supernatural when Erin came home from work and gave me the third season so I walked back up town to give Karina the second season, bought an iced coffee and went back home.

Now it is 11:31 at night, I'm not sleepy just yet but will go into my room and read until I can't keep my eyes open any longer. Oh and just before I watched 4 more episodes of supernatural season 3!

Goodnight and sweet dreams. Or. Goodmorning/day, enjoy yourself. =D

Jun. 23, 2009 - This and That

I am really sorry I haven't been on HSB for a while. I've been caught up in facebook. It's great, I love it and it's so addictive. What to post about....?

I recently went and saw Terminator Salvation. Ok, now most all people say that it's going to be crap cuz Arnie isn't in it. This is a big fat lie. They didn't need Arnie in it. Different story line. Of course, our Auzzie actor Sam Worthing had the best roll, He was great. Loved him.

I also got a chance to do some shopping. I've been getting extra shifts, which leads to more money, so of course I had to go shopping. I bought a new pair of jeans, 3 tops, 2 movies, Signs and The Sixth Sence, and the black Eyed peas latest album. And just today I got mum to order me 2 books from Koorong. Can't wait.

The weather has changed to rain, again. It's been raining so much latley that the speacial weather people have predicted more floods for next month! Geese, can we please have a break frm the rain Lord? We really don't need more rain. Lol. Don't get me wrong, I love the rain. I just get tired of it after a while.

So many things are happening next month. There's Grandma's 93rd birthday, Uncle Vian's coming down for his yearly visit and Rob's parents are coming down to. Wow, I can't wait. It's going to be an exciting month and I can't wait!

It's 11:12pm and I really should go to bed now. I'm no whre near tired, but mum gets angry when I don't wake up in the morning. I've been waking up at 9:30 every morning.

May. 26, 2009 - wind, rain and flooding

I can honestly say that I am so glad the rain has stopped. I love the rain, but when it leads to flooding, you just want it to stop. Well, today, it has stopped and I am so very glad. Last thursday, all the Richmond River schools were closed because of flooding danger. And it was very hard for me and Erin at work. Our other worker, Karina, lives just outside of Woodburn and was flooded in so she couldn't make it to work. Laura and Jason were stuck up in Queensland so they couldn't make it down to take over. So it was just me and Erin running the shop until the rain stopped and the flodding went down. It's still flodding in Lismore. School's back, it's a really nice day today and the Video shop is quiet. So I am posting.

I finally cried on a movie! Seven Pounds. It's sooo sad. I tried my hardest not to burst out sobbing. The tears kept coming, my eyes were red and I went through so many tissues. At the end of the movie, I was still crying. At the end of the credits I was still crying.

Sorry I haven't gotten round to commenting you all. I seriously have been busy with school and work. How have you all been? I'll eventually get round to comenting you.

Apr. 27, 2009 - Something Funny-from the book The Bells! The Bells! by Mark Stibbe

A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer. All of a sudden, he said outloud, 'Lord, grant me one wish!' The sky clouded above his head and in a booming voice , the Lord said, 'Because you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you 1 wish.' The man said, 'Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over anytime I want.' The Lord said, 'Your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supporst required to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for wordldy things. Take a little more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would honor and glorify me.' The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, 'Lord, I wish that I could understand women. I want to know how they feel inside, what they are thinking when they give the silent treatment, why they cry,what they mean when they say 'nothing', and how I can make women truly happy.' The Lord replied, 'You want two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?'

Bill has always been a prankster. As each of his friends got married, Bill made sure some type of practical joke was played upon them. Now ready to be married himself, he was dreading the payback he knew was coming. Surprisingly, the ceremony went off without a hitch. No one stood up during the pause to offer a reason 'why this couple should not be married.' His recepyion wasn't disrupted by streakers or strippers, and the car that the couple were to take on their honeymoon was in perfect working order. When the couple arrived at their hotel and entered the room, Bill even checked for cornflake in the bed (a gag he had always loved). Nothing, it seemed, was amiss. Satisfied that they had come away unscathed, the couple fell into bed. upon waking, the couple were ravenous, so Bill called down to Room Service and said, 'I'd like to orderbreakfast for two.' At that moment, a soft voice from under the bed said, 'Make that five.'

CHRISTIAN BOYS' CHAT-UP LINES

1. 'Nice bible.'

2. 'Is this pew taken?'

3. I just don't feel called to celibacy.'

4. 'For you I would slay two Goliaths.'

5. 'I would go through more than the book of Job for you.'

6. 'Shall we tithe?'

7. 'At points in my life I have been refered to as Samson.'

8. 'The bible says, "Give drink to those who are thristy, and feed the hungry." So how about dinner?'

9. I didn't believe in predestination until tonight.'

10. 'I believe one of my ribs belong to you.'

A woman accompanied by her husband to the doctor's office. After his check-up, the doctor called his wife into his office alone. He said, 'Your husband is suffering from a very serious disease, combined with horrible stress. If you don't do the following, your husband can die. Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast. Be pleasant and make sure he is in a good mood. For lunch, fix him a nutritious meal.  For dinner, prepare him an especially nice meal for him. Don't burden him with chores. Don't discuss your stress; this will probably make him feel worse. If you can do this for at least ten months to a year, I think your husband will regain his health completley.' On the way home, the husband asked his wife, 'What did the doctor say to you?' The wife turned to look at her husband. 'Your going to die.'

The speaker at a women's club was lecturing on marriage and asked the audience how many of them wanted to 'mother' their husbands. One member in the back row raised her hand. 'You want to mother your husband?' the speaker asked. 'Mother?' the woman echoed. 'I thought you said smother!'

I sure did enjoy laughing. There's plenty more where that came from. The fabulous book is called The Bells! The Bells! And it is written by Mark Stibbe. It's a great book.

Apr. 8, 2009 - Nothing Much

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I just can't find the time to post all the time like I used to. I haven't really been busy. I just recently joined up with facebook. It's great! I love it. I've been on facebook more than HSB, I'm sorry to admit. If any of you have facebook, be sure to add me. Or just let me know or something. Anyway. I'm not as into HSB as I was. I only have HSB so I can keep in contact with my friends. Isn't that's what HSB is about?

Last weekend Erin and I went to a young womens conference in Ballina called FREE. It was GREAT! It really teaches you a lot. The main they teach us girls is to love our body inside and out. To love the creator of our body. To be strong in ourselves as well as the Lord Jesus Christ. It was amazing. One of the ladies who spoke yo us wrote a book called princess. I haven't read it yet but she told us it was basically about us girls and what God can do to help and the amazing life we can live if we believe and trust in him. I learned alot while at FREE and am so thankful. I'm learning to become stronger in myself and in God to.

I'm behind on keeping up with all my friends so I'll try and comment you all SOON. I have to go to Grandma's for afternoon tea. Byee!

I am reading the fourth book in a series at the moment. Just started it. Chapter 3. The first book is Daughter of the Forest. Second is Son of the Shadows. Third is Child of the Prophecy. And the fourth book, the last book, is Heir to Sevenwaters. The author is amazing. She just grabs your attention and holds it right to the very end of the book, leaving you wanting for more. Those books I mentoined was the Sevenwaters books. She's written four other's I know of. Two of them are Wildwood Dancing and Cebele's Secret. I have the first one, read the second one and want to buy it. The other two are Wolfskin and Foxmask. I was looking them up online and the cover's for Wolfskin and Foxmask look awsome. That's what captured my attention first, was the front cover picture. Juliet Marillier is the amazing author. I love her. All her books are Historical Fantasy. Love them! She is currently writting a book about Australian Historical Fantasy. Can't wait. Anyway, she's really good.

Mar. 17, 2009 - YC09! (Youth Convention)

Like many of the people who attended YC09 thought YC08 sounded better. YC09 just doesn't sound better than YC08. Qwyn never let that thought be forgotten. Before it first started she was saying how YC09 will never be like YC08. Lol.

Anyway, once a year Evans Head holds a Youth Convention down at the school. It's so much fun! It's been going on for 6 years now. Including this year. So I attended the 5th and 6th year of YC. (Youth Convention) I kind of attended it this year. I went to the Friday night part of YC and Saturday night. But I skipped Saturday and all of Sunday. Next year will be my last time for YC so I'm definatly going to attend it and stay the weekend at the school.

Friday night was fun. We just talked and caught up with friends and made new friends. We talked right up to dinner. All through dinner we talked. And we didn't stop talking until we were called into the Hall for the Intro to begin. The hosts are so halarius! They can make you cry from laughing so hard. Anyway, so they told was what was going to happen. We had games, sang songs and Sam Chan gave us a speech. He's really funny. He's Asian and really small. He had to stand on a box to give us his speech. And his talks aren't the boring kind! They're the funny, entertaining kinds of talks.

I skipped most of Saturday but made it for another talk from Sam Chan and the dance! This years theme was Time Warp. You had to dress in the past or what you think the future is going to look like. As usual I just went as me. The dance was so fun! Cool music, amazing light work and they even had games. 1 game was we were given a sqaure piece of paper with a clock on it. We had to go around a book apointments with people we don't know. When we were finished, the hosts would call out a number. Like 3 o'clock! Then we'd have to walk around until we found our 3 o'clock people. It was really fun. i loved it.

Sadly it had to end. I didn't go to the Sunday one. But I did manage to grab Casey's mobile number so we could stay in contact through out the year until we meet up next year. We both decided to go next year cuz it's our last year. We'll be in year 12. Our last year. And we both swore and promised that we were going to dance like crazy at the dance next year and have a load of fun. And I'll be staying at the school too. FUN!!!!

Mar. 1, 2009 - Youth Group

Youth group was so fun! For youth group we went on ver to Chinamens Beach to play the Glow Stick Challenge. It was a game we never played before and it was so fun! This is how you play it. There are 2 teams. 1 team is gaurding a blue gem and the other is gaurding a yellow gem. All the players had to wear 2 glow stick bracelets. 1 team had to wear theirs on their left, the other on the right. I was chosen on the right side. And the goal of he game was to steal our gem that the other team was protecting. The right team had to try and steal the left teams bracelets while the left team did the same for the right. I was one of the girls protecting our gem. We had 2 guys and 2 girls protecting our gem cuz the guys were not aloud to touch the girls. The leaders aloud tackling in the game. And the guys were not aloud to touch the girls so I was one of the girls who had to tackle other girls to keep the gem safe. Oh and girls were aloud to tackle guys to but I had no intention of tackling any guy. Lol. The right team won. Oh and there was this guys Kane/Kain, who made up a chant for our team. It went like this, "YOU MAY HAVE THE BOTTLES!!!! BUT WE HAVE THE POTTLES!!!!" My sister was the on the same team as me and our last name is Pottle. It was so embarrasing. Lol. They chanted that through out the whole game and well after. Kane/Kain also said that next time he saw me in town he was going to shout out, "YOU MAY HAVE THE BOTTLE!!!! BUT LOOK!!!! THERES MELISSA POTTLE!!!!" I was like, shame. lol. Thank God he hasn't seen me down town yet. Anyway, youth group was so much fun! I loved it. I always love it.

Feb. 15, 2009 - NEWS: The Victoria BushFire, Flooding in Queensland, the 13 year old Father and Youth Group!

I don't know if you've heard about the massive fire that broke out here in Victoria, Australia. A couple of guys were arrested for starting it. It's pobably the biggest, hugest, fire we've had in Australian history. It's killed 181 people. 181!!! 181 innocent Australians dead. I feel so sorry and sad for all the victims who've lost their possesions, houses, animals and loved ones. It's really sad that a couple of guys thought they'd start a bush fire, which ended up killing 181 people. That is really bad. All across Australia we're still raisning money for the Victoria Bushfire Victims. Last time I heard how much we raised it was around 70 odd million. All on the news they showed the fire. It was massive and the clouds were BLACK! It was scary, watching it.

And in Queensland, Australia, it's FLOODING! Fire in one part of Australia, flooding in the next. Only a couple of us were lost. It's not as bad as the Victoria Fire, but it still is bad. At Church yesterday, Danny was mentioning the Fire and Jim also mentioned that we should also think about the flooding in Queensland. We're in a trajic state at the moment and so I ask you, please send us your prayers. It would be a gret help.

To lighten things up a bit I want to take a moment to ask you guys something. What is up the the 13 yr old boy being a father of a baby? His 15 yr old girlfriend being the mother of the baby. I think this is in France??? Not really sure but it sure isn't in Australia. I have no clue what to say. At that age it's a mistake for the both of them. They haven't finished school, they're too young, and they have their whole lives ahead of them. I haven't heard any more news about them since last night. If you guys have heard differently, please tell me. I'm really interested.

And the last piece of news. Youth group has started. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this in my last post??? Anyway, this week we're doing a phot rally. It's where we get into groups. When we're in our groups, we're handed a piece of paper with instructions on it. Then we have to run all over town and take photos. Its really fun. Although I really hate photo's. Lol.

Jan. 31, 2009 - YET ANOTHER FUNNY EMAIL FROM MY DEAR MUM

JUST A MUM? 

• 2 Comments • Post A Comment! • Permanent Link

Jan. 26, 2009 - THIS EMAIL IS FUNNY!!!!!!

Enjoy  (This one is much too cute not to share. Enjoy! Be sure to grab a tissue; I think you'll be laughing so hard you'll cry!) One day I met a sweet gentleman and fell in love. When it became apparent that we would marry, I made the supreme sacrifice and gave up beans. Some months later, on my birthday, my car broke down on the way home from work. Since I lived in the countryside I called my husband and told him that I would be late because I had to walk home. On my way, I passed by a small diner and the odour of baked beans was more than I could stand. With miles to walk, I figured that I would walk off any ill effects by the time I reached home, so I stopped at the diner and before I knew it, I had consumed three large orders of baked beans. All the way home, I made sure that I released all the gas. Upon my arrival, my husband seemed excited to see! me and exclaimed delightedly: 'Darling I have a surprise for dinner tonight.' He then blindfolded me and led me to my chair at the dinner table. I took a seat and just as he was about to remove my blindfold, the telephone rang. He made me promise not to touch the blindfold until he returned and went to answer the call. The baked beans I had consumed were still affecting me and the pressure was becoming most unbearable, so while my husband was out of the room I seized the opportunity, shifted my weight to one leg and let one go. It was not only loud, but it smelled like a fertilizer truck running over a skunk in front of a pulpwood mill. I took my napkin from my lap and fanned the air around me vigorously. Then, shifting to the other cheek, I ripped off three more. The stink was worse than cooked cabbage. Keeping my ears carefully tuned to the conversation in the other room, I went on like this for another few minutes. The pleasure was indescribable. When eventually the telephone farewells signalled the end of my freedom, I quickly fanned the air a few more times with my napkin, placed it on my lap and folded my hands back on it feeling very relieved and pleased with myself. My face must have been the picture of innocence when my husband returned, apologizing for taking so long. He asked me if I had peeked through the blindfold, and I assured him I had not. At this point, he removed the blindfold, and twelve dinner guests seated around the table chorused: 'Happy Birthday!' I fainted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jan. 22, 2009 - My 17th Birthday

I decided I wanted a girls day out for my 17th birthday. I got up at the crack of 8:30, brushed my teeth, brushed my hair, got dressed into my dress, packed my massive 'Rusty' bag Sylvia got for my birthday and sat around while waiting for Sylvia and mum to hurry up. It was round about 9ish when we finally left. Well, past 9.

First thing we did was have breakfast at Donught King. I just had a cinnamon roll and that was all. While having our breakfast we were talking about where we wanted to go shopping first. The list was Diva, BookWare House, Big W, Supre, lunch, movies, pet shop then home.

I only bought a couple of things from Diva. they were having a sale on some jewlery $5 and under. I bought a pair of green feather earrings, a long necklace that jingles, lipgloss and thats all. I couldn't find anything I liked on the $5 and under rack so I just left it alone. There were some really cute necklaces and earrings there, but they were expensive.

I love the BookWare House. It's one of my favourite stores to shop at. There was 1 book I was looking for but they didn't have it. Cybelle's Secret, id the name of the book and it is the second book to Wild Wood Dancing. Erin has both books but I want the second for myself. Lol. There were some interesting books there but not enough to capture my interest. So when we were all done, we left and made our way over to Big W.

Now Big W is probably my favourite store. It has everything I always want. Girly things, music, dvd's, books, clothes, lollies, etc. Absaloutly love it. I went straight over to the isle which had all the creams, and face wash and other girl stuff. I straight away picked up the Nair waxing strips. For my legs. And also the mini Nair waxing strips so I could wax my under arms. I cannot shave my under arms cuz I get irritated and red bumps appear and it gets all itchy. So I'm going to give waxing a go. Sorry guys. Then I bought Silky mit, (which is supposed to stop your leg hair from growing back to fast) the Underword dvd, and a book all about Robert Pattinson. (the new English actor who playes Edward in Twilight).

Then we made our way over to Supre. My favourite clothes store. I only bought 2 singlets, a light blue one and the other white, and small grey shorts. Then I had to wait around for Erin and Sylvia to hurry up. They were taking so long to pick out a simple outfit. lol.

Eventually we got around to having McDonalds for lunch. Having McDonalds for lunch i kinda like a tradition in our family. When I was a baby, mum and dad would always take me to McDonalds, and the staff at McDonalds were literally watching me grow up. I had a large Cheese Burgar Meal.

After lunch at McDonalds, we headed on over to the movies to see bride wars. It was a pretty good movie. After the movie, mum and Sylvia went into the toilets while Erin, Gwyn and I waited outside for us. All of a sudden Erin leans in and tells us that the teenage guy who had tapped her at work the other night was sitting on the chair with Ryan right behind us. I couldn't believe my ears. They were the guys who stirred up trouble and got Leanne really angry. And they were right behind us. I turned around and sure enough, there they were. I locked my gaze to the blond one and stared at him until he looked at me. When he did I glared at him. I quickly told Sylvia and as we were heading out the door, she stopped and made sure we were all outside before turning to the boys and glaring at them to. It was halarius. Gwyn and I had tears streaming down our faces from laughing. I can't wait to see what they'll do when they next see me in work.

After the movies, Sylvia wanted to go and get hairspray. and after that mum took us to the pet shop. The first thing I saw was 3 puppies and 3 Siamese kittens. I don't like Siamese cats. If they'll get jealouse and kill babies. They'll literally go over to a baby, sit on their face and suffacate them. When I first learned of what they did, I instantly hated them. But the puppies were so cute. 1 of the just wanted to be loved at petted. The other 2 were happily playing and fighting each other. It was so cute in that pet shop.

I might as well tell you what I got for my 17th birthday! I got a green butterfly earring and necklace set and $20 from grandma. A 'rusty' bag from Sylvia, a Billabong wallet from Rob. The Twilight Soundtrack, I Know What You Did Last Summer dvd, a charm bracelet and a charm from my family, the complete first season of SmallVille from Erin and mum and Speed Racer dvd from Karina.

I had a wonderful B-day.

Jan. 16, 2009 - i got my hair trimmed and layered this morning!

This morning at 9:00 i got my hair trimmed and layered! Lol, felt more like a hair cut than a trim. But that didn't bother me. She trimmed an inchor two off and then set about to putting long layeres in. I was so excited. I hadn't had a really good cut in like 4 years. No joke, mum even confirmed it. So I bit my lip and booked an appointment for this mornina at 9am. I'm even thinking getting it died really dark dark brown. I love that dark brown that looks like black, but you can still tell its brown. Lol. I'm so happy I got it done. Mum and Joel are out shopping today so they have to wait until they come back to see my hair.

Ahh! I am sick and tired of summer and of the campers that are in our town. When Sabrina finishes watching Wall e, we're going for a swim. And its only 9:47 in the morning. I'm usually stil asleep by this early hour. But I'm trying hard to change that. Then I'll drop the movie off, go for another swim, come home, eat some lunch, swim, go up town and see dad, swim, come home and show mum my hair cut, swim lol. That what I wouldn't mind doing. Plus, I need to keep my tan. And don't worry, Erin has already given me the talk about how a tan isn't healthy. Lol.

My birthday is next week! I'm so excited! The hair cut was also a birthday present. I love it! Anyway, I'm hoping to go to wet and wild when school gets back in. That way when school is in, there won't be as many people in wet and wild. So I'm happy to wait!

Jan. 10, 2009 - My Saturday With Korina

I didn't wake up till 11:00 this morning. I had stayed up last night watching a horror moviw, that was actually a good one, and didn't get to bed until almost 12. So mum had enough of yelling at me and gave 1 final yell. I groaned and made myself get outta bed. I walked in the kitchen and looked at the clock. I saw that it was 11:00 and I quickly had my breakfast, dressed, teeth brushed, hairdone, bag all ready to goand I was out the door at 11:45. Erin had to go to work so I walked with her.

I arrived at the shop where I was meeting Korina. We bought drinks and then made our way on over to the markets. There weren't that many stalls. Mabey 15 or less. I swear there were only 10. Not even 10. But I did buy 2 necklaces, 1 bracelet and 3 long licorice ropes. Mango, peach and sour water mellon. I haven't ever tried those before so they should be good.

Then we walked back up town, and made our way down the the kiosk beside the river. We bought hot chips for lunch and walked out to the wall to eat our yummy lunch. It was really windy out on the wall. But it was so nice, having that cold wind blowing on our hot and flushed faces.

After lunch we rented a movie, This Christmas, and watched it at my house. After the movie we walked back up to town and waited for erin's shift to end and thn Korina could begin.

Ahhh! I gotta go. Dad wants to hop bak on again. Grrr!

Jan. 1, 2009 - HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Last night was so much fun! I loved it! I had a shower at 6:15. I made sure my hair was going to be especially clean, cuz I decided to wear my hair down. I never wear my hair down, so this was a big step. Lol. Gwyn came over to our place at 7:00 and we left at 7:15. On our way to town this small car full of guys whistled at us, twice. It was funny. Gwyn never wears a dress and so she was so nervous. We reached yates Pizza Shop and hung around. We hung around cuz I told Korina thats where I'd meet her. She came at exactly 7:30 and we all made our way over to the dancing. We had dinner until 8:00 and from 8:00 to 8:30 they had games and warm ups. Then at 8:30 the dancing started. It was sooo fun! I was jittery and jumpy through the whole dancing. We started out circle dances. All the guys were on the inside and the girls on the outside. We did 4 of those dances. I danced with so many small people. Most of them just reached my knees. They were so cute. When it came to the guys twirling the girls, I skipped out that part cuz they were so tiny. 1 guy looked like he was going to have a heart attack. I'm serious. He was making a face and I was like, he better not have a heart attack. 1 guy was swetting! I was like EWWWWWWW!!! Discusting. Lol. We had a break so Korina and I walked over to Yates and Korina bought us a can of coke. We had to jug it down so we could make it for the dancing. After the break they had more games. Then the dancing. We had to find partners so Korina and I were wondering around and I spotted Andrew. So I just said "Partners?" He said yeah and grabbed Bass to pair up with Korina. With the very last dance guys stood in 1 line facing the girls and the girls stood in a line facing the guys. It was called "Strip the Willow". The top couple had to spin down the line and spin back up. But Andrew and I just skipped down the line. For some reason our line was really slow. Lol. It was still so fun. The final dance as the hokey pokey. all the older guys were so funny. They were singing loudly and having a blast. We had another break. After that break we went straight into ordinary dancing until New Year. We were happily dancing when all of a sudden the people shouted 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Then Korina had to go so I git a lift back to my place. I got home, pj's on, teeth brushed and I fell straight onto my bed and went to sleep.

Dec. 29, 2008 - SUFM HAS ARRIVED IN EVANS HEAD!!!!!!

Sufm, or also known as Beach Mission, has arrived in Evans Head! They set up on Sunday. Tonight, monday night, was supposed to be a movie, opening night. The movie they chose was Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer. We started out playing games, then the movie came on. The movie started and all went quiet. and then the howling, raging wind started with the help of the pelting rain. The wind got so bad that a leader had to hold a tent pole tightly, to keep the ent from blowing away. And this is one massive tent. So there were leaders holding a pole on the outlining of the tent, 2 leaders each, holding the massive 3 centre poles and a leader holding the screen. The wind got so bad that they had to stop the movie and tell us all to go home. And thats where I am now. Home, in my comfy pj's, sitting at the computer listening to music on my I-Pod.

I just hope it doesn't rain on New Years Eve night. That when the New years Eve celebration is. There's dinner, dessert, bush dancing, party daning, hanging out with friends, more dancing, fire crackers, more dancing, and more hanging. All the girls are dressed in dresses. I've never worn a dress to any of the New Years Eve celebration nights, and this year I am. I just have to find my black tights that go with it.

But by the tim you read this, I'm hopinh it'll be either Christmas Day or Boxing Day so, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!! I hope you get what you want and give what you wanted to give. I hope your Christmas is how you wanted it to be filled with happiness and joy.

Sabrina and Joel woke Erin and I up at 5 in the morning asking us if we wanted to sit by the Christmas Tree and watch the presents with them until mum and dad woke up. I'm a late morning person so I mumbled no and went straight back to sleep. (Party Pooper I know) Then at 6:30 mum came in and I had no choice. So I pulled myself outta bed and dragged myslef into the living room to open presents.

What I got for Christmas and from who was a teddy bear from Joel, a basket of bath soaps and gells from Sabrina, a book (Stop In the Name of Pants! Is the name of the book) from Erin, board shorts, a white hat and 2 pairs of new thongs (ummm.....flip flops) from Grandma, an I-Pod nano, pj's, the Dark Night dvd, and 4 other booksfrom mum and dad. The 4 other books I got are called "Pure", "The Unqiet Bones". "Deltora Quest 3" and "Brisingr". Anyone read Eragon? Well, Brisingr is the third book in that series and I've only just started to read it so if you've read it before, SHHH! Lol, don't tell me anything about it.

Dec. 15, 2008 - TWILIGHT!!!!!!

I saw Twilight today! It was such a good movie. I woke up at 7:30 and got dressed all in under half an hour. I didn't have any breakfast so I was kinda sick on the way to Lismore. But we got there and Twilight didn't start start until 10:30 so we had an hour to spare. Mum went to see *Australia*. (I'll talk about that later) It was 10 when all the school kids started arriving so Gwyn, Erin and I went in. The movie was sooo good. I loved it. I've read the book twice. And the second book twice. I've only read the third book once and am reading the fourth book now. Anyone read the books? Gwyn got me addicted to the books. Lol. The movie was funny as well. I couldn't stop laughing on the funny parts. I reccomend you go see it. Only if your parents have nothing against vampires.

I was wondering, has the movie *Australia* come out in America yet? Have any of you guys heard of it yet? Just wondering.
