so what time is it in vegas?

i'm so obsessed with finding out what time it is in certain parts of america nowadays. why? i dont know. maybe i do. sometimes there are things i want for no obvious reasons. a possible reason for my obsession could be because i want to know what mr usa is up to. should be about 7-8ish.

recently, i followed a blog Ebony Freedom Sketchers written by and old friend :) it's not really a blog, but a collection of poems from her extension II english major work. about eight months ago, i was eager to take up ext 2 because i enjoyed writing and thinking deeply, but my dad told me i was not allowed to take this subject because english marking tends to be subjective and is bad for marks etc. so i listened to him and stopped thinking about taking this subject up. and since then, my english marks have been dropping. i'm quite disappointed with my marks (i hate this rank-on-report system they have at school. it devastates me) and all the hopes of taking ext 2 english have gone down the drain. it is at a moment like this that my dad decides i should take up this extra unit after attending a teacher/parent subject selection talk. i mean seriously, why do we clash so badly? now i have no interest whatsoever in taking up that fourth unit.

and so every night at the dinner table when the subject is brought up, a huge arguement arises, and he brings out that inner rebellion in me. i despise that. i love nothing more than being the "good child" in the family. but ugh- reading back, i see how much ive digressed.

so, wondering away from this topic completely, i was walking around in my front yard for a bit feeling the warmth of the sun on my neck as i was observing how well the weed killer solution worked on our front lawn.

and then.. i hear a motorbike.

motorbike on highway = bikie
motorbike on tv = racing
motorbike in a little street like mine could only mean one thing.

postman has arrived.

and then i could feel the adrenaline pumping throughout all the veins in my body. i run up to my mailbox to see what this wonderful man has brought and its a NRMA voting letter. anticlimax much?

i want to upload leigh nash for everyone here to listen to for a while. but i cant get the hang of the embedding code. theres something wrong with my code.
got it! (i cheated, i used my aimini account)

its the perfect waking up music on a sunny, breezy sunday morning.

for the past month i've been learning wonderwall + officially missing you + a few popular tunes on guitar and ive been improving every day, however, i can never sing along which is kind of annoying. especially when the music and the singing are timed differently

now i shall sunbake in my backyard :)

toodles!

ps. did anyone notice? i removed the border around the pictures i posted
