Lounging.

Wow. Have I been slack on the blogging front!

It was my first day back at work today after my week long lounge session and I am exhausted. Because, you know, lazing around can really take it out of you... ugh. Despite the laziness it was actually a very crazy week. A town about an hour west from here had extreme flash flooding, and because all of the rivers are connected, communities were wiped out from the sheer force of the water. In the centre of our town is a river with shopping centers and train stations and hundreds of businesses on the banks. Needless to sat those banks broke and the water rised metres and metres into peoples homes and workplaces, destroying anything in it's path. Thankfully enough for me I live on a hill out of harms way but there were thousands of people left homeless because of this. They say it is one if the worst natural disasters in the history of australia... yes, that bad.

So I was driving around documenting this devastation for record keeping purposes in the hope that it would be the only time I witness it in my life. It was beyond crazy.

Nearly Birthday.

It's been a while...

I have been sick these past few days so there was no blogging. I was hoping the lead up to my birthday would have been much more pleasant, but alas, life has been the bitch she always is.

Im making it better by having a massage, a tan and a trip to the hairdressers so i look smokiiiin' for my party tomorrow night. Which reminds me, i'm twenty one tomorrow... twenty-fricken-one!? Next thing you know i'll be engaged and married and popping out sweet, sweeeet milky babies (which is not something i'm dreading, unlike my age).

My mother keeps adding in every conversation 'rheyanan your not a child anymore, your an adult!' and it's a sad realisation that i can no longer play with that beautiful pink victorian dollhouse that i always admire in our local homewares shop without looking like a freak. I can't get away with wearing nothing but undies whilst running through the sprinkler in summer, i cant even blame things on my siblings, because i don't live with them anymore. But with the end of that phase in my life comes promise for a new, exciting chapter which i have never experienced.
