Time To Try New Things!

So tomorrow is my day off. I NEVER get Sundays off! It is super unusual! Great though!

So I have decided to go to Church, not only because the song 'Take me to church' is awesome, but because it is something I have always wanted to do but from what I remember, I never have. My niece Aurora wants to go too. So I think it would be a good bonding activity.

If we don't like it we could always go to Maccas instead. 

I am thinking of going to Nations Church. I always drive past there and it looks lovely. Not only that my cousins go there. My cousin Brad sings there quite a bit, so it should be good.

Tonight, instead of going to Jesse (My Cousin) 21st party, I have decided to stay home and have an early one. I am turning into a nana. Hopefully that will change when Kat gets here.

I'M IN!!

So last year I applied for a course at Otago Polytechnic. (Sort of a cross between university and tafe). I received a letter a while ago saying that I was not accepted as the class I wanted to be in was full, but I was allowed to be on the wait list. Well on Tuesday I got a phone call saying that someone pulled out and I have a chance to be in. I had an interview today, well, what I thought was an interview, but I actually got in. It was a pre-orientation. It was amazing. It is classed as full time study, but I only have classes on Thursdays and Fridays 9am-5pm. I thought that was great. I could imagine it will be a hard course, but it would totally be worth it in the end. This means, because it is only two days a week, and only until 5pm at the latest, I can still work as per usual, and I will get plenty of time to spend with my best friend, Kat. It will be amazing. I am studying a national certificate in Human Services, majoring in Disability Support. Another cool thing, is that my sister Bex, is also studying this year. I found out today that she will be in the same block as me, and we will be having orientation together, and we have course on the same days, Kat was saying yesterday that she is keen to study something too. It would be awesome if she could get into a course that she wanted over here, then we could live the real scarfie life. Nana Rua was fantastic today. When she found out I was accepted she was very proud, she took me to warehouse stationary and let me spend $50. She is so lovely.

Anyways, just thought I would let you all know how proud I am of myself. :)

Catch up time

So these are the pictures of my aunty's birthday cake that I made her. It was delicious! everybody loved it! 

Last night we went to Filadelfios for dinner. It is an american style Pizza/ Pasta Bar! It was delicious. I got the spaghetti puttnesca. It was fantastic! 

Today I looked after my nieces, and picked Bella up from kindy! It was her first day back from the Christmas holidays. She loved it! I made a birthday cake this afternoon as it is one of my best friends in New Zealand birthday. I work with him. He is great! I know he will enjoy the cake.

Tomorrow I am going to make play dough with Aurora, she gets a bit bored after so many weeks of school holidays. It will be great fun! I can't even remember the last time I made play dough! 

Life is sweet...

So Yesterday, I did a whole lot of nothing. It was FANTASTIC! I took Allegra to the shop to change her birthday present! She chose a Doc McStuffins microphone! It is great! Then we went to the Beach and the park and had some lunch and got an ice block. What a great day. Today, I went to my sisters as soon as I woke up. We went to town and did some shopping. Then mum and dad came down and we are just about to have a barbeque for dinner. Dad and James are away fishing, Mum and the kids are watching Peppa Pig and Bex is outside starting the Barbeque up. Life is great.

 Raewyns cake turned out great! I will upload picture when I get home. (Not on my computer) We have had such beautiful weather.

If it is great tomorrow we might take the Jet Ski down to Henley for a blat for Raewyn's Birthday. Maybe take a Picnic.

I went up home to get Millie (My Dog) when I got home she wasn't there, which is unusual, as she never runs away. She obviously hear my brakes, as she ran down the street and into the car like a bat out of hell. She obviously decided it would be a good idea to go on an adventure. I will be sure to upload a picture of her too. She is kind of cute. But she is super hypo. I love her.

Well I am off to make a salad for dinner.

Time to do what I want!

For those who know me, you know I am a bit of a geeky nerd. I laughed so hard when I seen this picture! So I thought I would share it with you.

I have decided I would like to take up dancing! I would love to know how to waltz and Cha Cha! I would love to do Rock n Roll dancing. I think that will be something I take up in my spare time, in the near future. 

So my cake is almost finished and I am quite pleased with how it came out considering what it looked like last night. 

I am super excited for the next couple of weeks. I have my cousins 21st next week. It is a heaven and hell theme, which should be hilarious. The week after, we are going back to Kurow to get some more firewood, for the winter of course. and in seven weeks I am off to Australia. I can not wait. Not only do I get to see my family, I get to see my friends, and I get to bring my best friend Kat back. I am so excited. I am also super excited to see a really good friend named Enzo. He is great. He has just moved to Adelaide so I will have to catch up with him when I am down there.

Well I am off to put the finishing touches on the cake, and then watch a couple of episodes of Awkward.

Whoops... (Part 2)

Soo.... lets just say my cake didn't really turn out the way I wanted it. It smells beautiful though! So I will have to see what I can do to fix it tomorrow.

I think it is time to lay in bed and watch some TV with my cats. If you didn't already know, I love cats! I have three and there is a stray that has adopted us over this Christmas break. He is a bit skittery, and doesn't really come inside, but I am working on him.

I am listening to Geronimo on the radio whilst I am typing this and I just can't stop smiling, I don't know why, it just reminds me of a happy song. Something that just instantly makes your mood ten times better. Have you a song like that?

Tomorrow is Allegra's second birthday so we have a big day ahead! I also have the lady from Avon coming around as I am going to start being a representative for it. But I think I might need to postpone her coming around so that I can spend the whole day with Allegra, I might see if Aurora would like a sleepover tomorrow night as well. She would love that!

Alright! I'm off

Whoops...

So my cake didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. The cake itself is fine, but my icing skills with my shaky hands and today, my shaky patience, I thought it would be a good idea to change the decoration. I am aiming for something like the picture below. I am going to finish it off once I finish writing this.
Speaking of whoops, I am constantly loosing my phone! I could have it, and two minutes later I couldn't tell you where it was. I even have a case that looks like a giant pineapple. It is awesome, but I still can't find it. I would probably misplace my head if it wasn't attached.

 Not the full thing, I just want to decorate it like the top cake.
