Fruit Salad and Mixed Veg

After deciding I had done absolutely no exercise in who-knows-how-long, I told myself that I had to do some exercise or I'd end up looking like a lump of lard. Each day for the past four days, I've been walking up a hill. It makes me tired and my legs get sore, but it's good exercise

Saturday’s walk was particularly exciting. I learnt that you should never walk on little tracks by yourself. Why? You might get bitten by a snake! My dad stopped to tie up his shoe on a rock...and there was an Eastern Brown Snake (second most deadly snake in the world ) behind the rock.

My dad had his camera with him but the shot he took isn’t the best.. I guess when a deadly snake is in front of you, you don’t really have time to work out the ‘rule of 3rds’, calculate where any shadows will be, set up a tripod etc etc.

I finished work at 1am this morning. I started at 6pm and it wasn't very busy so they let me go home. I would have stayed there for extra money though! I got home and my dad and I were talking in the kitchen:

*Kimbers is happy and laughing*
The dad of Kimbers: Were you drinking at work?
Kimbers: No.
The dad of Kimbers: Oh...you just seem really happy!

If I ever feel better from Pheonix

I was in the uni computer room this morning at the early hour of 8.45am. There was one other individual on the other side of the room...far far away (60+ computers in this room).

Anyway, one guy walked behind me...then came back and SAT NEXT TO ME!...WHAT? Why would you sit next to me when there are 58 other spare computers?! The computer he sat down at was also OFF There were others that were already on.

He sat down and looked at me...then started sipping his coffee really loudly...looked at me some more...I sat trying to ignore him. Then he started playing loud dance music...and looking for my reaction. Then he started laughing....and singing to the really loud dance music...and looking at me more. Then he started looking at what I was typing. International business strategies are not that interesting...or are they?

I was ready to hit this guy in the face. He was sooooo annoying! After 1 HOUR, I packed up my stuff to go to a meeting. Then he started at me and I started at him and gave him a look which said 'What is your problem?!'

Don't mess with me. I am a bar chick and I'm not scared at yelling at strangers!


At the bus stop (yep, freaks always hang out at the bus stop) I was standing in the sun (yep, I'm a reptile ) and a bogan guy stood next to me...There's lots of other places to stand you know! Then he asked me 'Is this Tea Tree Plaza?' I replied with 'Yes'. How can you not know if you are at Tea Tree Plaza or not?! It's the second biggest shopping complex in the STATE! If I wasn't such a poor student, I would have bought this bogan some breath mints because I nearly died from the smell seeping from his mouth. I wonder if my medical insurance covers 'Death by bogany bad breath?'


Did you know 50% of Aussies don't get enough fibre?
Nope?
Neither did I.
Now you've learnt 2 things

I am lucky enough to have cable broadband at home If you live in some parts of Australia you can't get cable broadband. You can get broadband but it's not very fast.

What do you do during the evening/night when you live in the country with slow internet? Scrabble? Nope, cases fights. Monopoly? Nope, causes divorces and domestic violence. FIRE? Yes! In the country, people have bonfires. You light lots of dead trees on fire and everyone stands around the fire and watches it. I didn't get to go to one last night but my dad did.


Some guy goes back home, not because he forgot his glasses/camera, but because he forgot his tractor...and then uses it to push the wood around.

Does anyone know what day it is in Australia today? It's... BOGAN DAY!

Why? Today is AFL (Australian Football League) Grand Final Day. AFL is a 'bogan' sport where 2 teams of weird looking guys in shorts that are too short run around an oval and chase and kick a weird shaped ball. Today bogans across Australia will be having BBQs, watching the game on their plasma TVs (which they bought with pension money from the government) and drinking beer (which they paid for using their baby bonus money (when you have a baby, the government gives you money so you can buy clothes for it etc. However, some really smart bogans just have children so they can get the money))
