So yeah again I did very little today. I spent a lot of time on the net and a lot of time infront of the tv!
Scott was working all day, so that made the house a little quieter....but not THAT much.
lol. Between Nikki and Dad, there was still plenty of noise.
Mum, Nic and I went to the supermarket. I got me some new phone credit. -yay...and it also came in handy...
I spent the afternoon on the computer, and watching some tv. I was going to watch Gilmore Girls from last night, but it was too noisy so I decided to wait. It was a good thing I did, because I started flicking channels and almost died of shock when I found 'The Shrunken City' which is a movie that a few of us have had a slight obsession with (some of us more than others...). That is the movie that has Steve Valentine (Nigel from CJ) in it, playing an Ood Leader. So there has been a big Ood thing, even though none of us have seen it. So I was madly texting Elsa, Ella and Faith. -It was very exciting!
lol
Then I decided to stop watching it and tape it from the start at 5am (Monday). So I have set up the tape for that. -It was on Hallmark of all channels. One I like, but haven't really watched much lately.
Then I watched Charmed with Nikki. -I wanted to watch the one were they go back to the 1920's. Because of my story. I wanted to check some things.
Then I watched Gilmore girls and then the final ep of Sliders and the special features.
There was a behinds the scenes/thing about the show bit, which was very cool and Jerry mentioned Crossing Jordan so I giggled and clapped at that. lol.
So I have now finished my Sliders dvds. yay. Season 3 is coming out next week. I might start saving up for when that comes out cheap.
Then I started quoteing 'Conspiracy' of CJ season 2. It's the 2nd last one I have. I got a bit done, but then I got tired so I gave up and flicked foxtel channels. I watched Lost for a while, till Scott got off the comp and thats my day!
Nikki wasn't feeling well this evening. I think she was a bit dehydrated. Stupid heat.
Dad was complaining/arguing about the Air conditioning today again.
Tomorrow I am spending the day watching the SAG awards (Screen Actors Guild) on foxtel.
Then Scott and Nikki go back to school on Tuesday! -YAY!!!!!!!
I will have a new ep of Crossing Jordan to watch then. Woohoo!
-I can't wait.
I saw like 50 ads for the new season of Las Vegas on channel 7 tonight! I just hope they play CJ soon! Otherwise it will be all messed up!
Anyhoo...
Thats all for now

Another Scorcher!
Today was muchos hot! The high high temp made everyone in the house grouchy too!
I slept in again...forgetting about Providence...and got up at 11am. I then sat around for a few hours, doing nothing. -A little time on the comp, but not much else.
Nikki and I watched the rest of the Christmas/Party/Birthday/misc tape, and some music vids on foxtel. Then we watched The Barbie movies...the ones I LOVED as a kid. -They were made in 1987....they were kinda bad..but I still love them. lol.
After that I helped Nikki sort some stuff out in her room. Then I convinced Mum (quite easily) to take us down to Blockbuster video to get some movies. So off we went. I got, The Muppet Movie, Cabaret, The Blue Bird and Holiday Inn. Nikki got Billboard Dad (a Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen movie) and Kangaroo Jack. -I can't believe she got it! But I will HAVE to watch it....oh how I KNOW I will cringe at Jerry in it. Lol.
Mum also bought icecreams for everyone.
When we got back, I helped Nikki in her room again. -We were supposed to be looking for things to throw out for a garage sale...but I was mostly looking at old books and games that are childhood faves. -I found my old Flute music book, there was the music to Blow'in in the Wind by Bob Dylan! I need to buy a flute, I'd love to teach myself how to play again.
I watched Friends at 6:30pm. I was a little bummed that I missed the proposal ep yesterday. I love that ep! lol.
Then we had dinner, a bbq on a total fire ban day...my dad never listens to the rules.
Nikki and I watched another ep of Sliders. -We only have 1 more to go now!
Then we watched Will and Grace and then I put on the Muppet Movie. -We ate a few too many Caramello Koalas today..in honour of Australia Day. heh. I had me some Vegemite today too. ...okay I have that most days! lol.
Then I just bummed around watching tv till now.
Tomorrow we may or may not be going to the beach. It's a possibility. Nikki is having Lucy over, they may go to Luna Park instead. We'll see.
I'm gonna head to bed soon..but I have like 1 scene of my chapter left, so I wanna finish that so that I can post it tomorrow.
Later

A Lazy Day...
Today was pretty much a nothing day. I slept in (taping Providence), got up around 10am. And then sat on the computer till noon.
I had to take up my pants for my interview at Safeway and I also had to iron my shirt before that!
I ended up taping The View, and watched it tonight.
I watched yesterdays before doing my pants.
I left at 3pm. I just missed the early tram I was supposed to catch, so I sat in the 30something degree heat and waited for the next one. I managed to get to Safeway on time, but had to wait around ages for someone to greet me for my interview.
The interview went okay, it was pretty simple. I expected the whole 'what is your weakness' question, but nope. Hopefully I will get some work. I'm crossing my fingers. lol
-That said, after all that I probably won't get it.
I came home and watched tv with Nikki. -After having a shower from being really hot and all sweaty from wearing work clothes out in the heat. The whole thing took just over an hour, including travel time!
We then put on the old birthday party video of me and Scott when we were little.
Mum came home and we somehow convinced her to buy us McDonalds for dinner. So we went shopping at safeway...the same store infact! lol.
Then Nikki and I went and got the dinner and waited for mum to pick us up in the car.
Tonight I watched Will and Grace (on foxtel, but a new ep for me...a new/old ep. lol), then I watched The View from earlier today. Then Nikki and I watched Sliders and then we watched Providence from this morning. After that we watched the rest of the party video and then started another tape, a later one that had Christmas 1999 on it. It was so weird, but little Nikki was SO cute! lol
Tomorrow is Australia Day, so I dunno what we are doing. Nothing much I don't think...since it's going to be SO SO hot! lol.

Trouble Times Like A THOUSAND!
Today was just a bad day. Actually it had it's moments....
Like I got to watch a new episode of Crossing Jordan! yay. That was ep 12. Weird. It feels like there have been more than that.
Before that I took Nikki up to the school to collect her books for the year. Scott went off to work and was out all day.
Dad came home at 1pm (about 10 minutes after I finished watching the great ep of CJ), and then he drove me to Prahran for my enrollment.
-He was a total pain, because he was there...off shopping and would just come in and pay the fees. He made me go through all this jazz, so that he could pay over the phone or something. He's a total flake and I am really mad at him for it. I asked and everything.
People should know that for me to ask for something, especially from my parents or other grown-ups (eg. teachers) is a really hard thing for me. And he just has to be a pathetic jerk. oh well. What am I gonna do. *sigh*
So then anyways...I stayed and chatted with Jacinta, Kelly and Judith while they paid, and then went and met dad. Who decided to stay around. Grrr.
We stopped at Ashburton on the way home to buy bread...and I waited in the car. I was totally bombarded with things relating to my tv shows. lol. From Duchamp clothing, to a Molly Sims ad on the window of the chemist, to some guy Tim from a realestate place. lol.
-It amused me.
When I got home I sat on the computer. Mum came home and I ended up getting into a huge fight with everyone because I was expressing my feelings about Dad and his deal!
Then mum got annoyed with me because I had not sent off for my health care card yet. Then because I was annoyed that my black pants are missing. So we went off to Target eventually to buy some new ones. It wasn't easy. lol. But we found a pair for now. I need a pair to wear to my interview at safeway tomorrow arvo. -Hopefully I will get a job and have some money to buy some new clothes! That'd be nice.
We got back and I watched tv. I went though some more old tapes. Then just before 8pm, I made my dinner. I hadn't eaten all day...well since the breffles I had around 11am. I was starving!!
Then I watched Will and Grace and then a repeat of NCIS. I think I had seen part of this ep before. Weird. lol.
Then I watched an ep of Sliders. And read another chapter of Tom Sawyer. Then I watched the blooper reels from Alias and then another ep of Sliders.
Tomorrow Scott isn't working. So he will be home all day. -No fun at all!
My interview is at 3:30pm, down at Camberwell. I will catch the tram down.
I am downloading a new ep of Las Vegas. Oh and channel 7 will start season 3 next Thursday night! I can't wait! hehe.

Crummy Day #9986
Today was just a bad day for me all round. I spent the morning part being totally over tired and just lying on the couch. That lasted till about noonish, a little after. Nikki and I lay downstairs on the couch watching Open Seseme, a new Seseme street show using the old footage with weirdo new stuff thrown in. It was totally weird, I was watching things I KNOW I saw as a little kid. lol.
I was also half watching the Flinstones.
After that, I decided to watch an ep of Sliders. Nikki joined me in the lounge room. After that I watched The View, then Touched by an Angel and then I was flicking untill I finally got a turn on the computer around 4pm. -Only because Scott was going out. He's been such an asshole lately. Stupid teenage boys. -And my mother wonders why I never dated. lol
I finally found the file for this week's ep of Crossing Jordan so that I could download it....I should probably stop going on about how I download things....hmm.
I got off around 7pm and Scott got on and decided to be a total jerk and start going on about me downloading stuff from tv so that Mum would hear and get a little mad at me and start telling me off. -I love how they can download all this crap and I download something and suddenly it's a HUGE deal that is totally bad. I don't get it.
So anyways...he dared to delete it, and I reacted and hit him on the head. He got up and decided to get me back...apparently it's his right or something. I hate him. I can't wait till he is gone this week. He's going to be housesitting for Maree.
Everyone was in a bad mood today, and as usual I got all the blame for it. Just because I share my feelings, people fight and then I get blamed. Grr.
I made dinner (late) and then watched Will and Grace sorta on foxtel, then Nikki and I put on Anastasia. After that I flicked and then went to bed. I read another chapter of Tom Sawyer. That puts me up to chapter 6 I think. lol.
After I finished, I was lying there and fell asleep until 11:30pm. I got up and checked to see who was on Leno and Conan. -Steve Erwin was on Leno...it was pretty bad, but quite funny. lol.
Tomorrow the Golden Globe Awards are on. The red carpet special is on foxtel at 10am. The show it'self won't be on till 8:30pm on channel 10. oh well.
Hopefully I will ge to watch the new ep of Crossing Jordan tomorrow...or at least this week. *crosses fingers*

Almost Free!!!!!!!!!
This time tomorrow, I will be ALL ALONE in my house! I can't wait! hehe.
The fam is all packed up and ready to go early in the morning. I will probably be up by the time they leave...doh. But I have to get up anyways I suppose as I am meeting the gang in the city.
Today I kept fighting with Scott. He loves to torment me and push my buttons. I have become somewhat of a germophobe at home, and yell at everyone to wash their hands before touching food...which isn't much to ask. Especially after they have been holding the cat or playing on the computer. They get annoyed, but I am perfectly happy not being sick and would like to stay that way. Plus it's also common decency to wash hands before eating.
So Scott and I got into a big fight (s) about it today.
Mum was home and was up early off to the doctors. Then we sat around and I watched the View and then waited around after that, while Nikki made Honeyjoys, to go to the supermarket. I got plenty of junk for me to eat over the next couple of days. Some treats for me and then stuff for Saturday night when people come over.
We ran into 2 different people we know in the lolly isle. lol. One was the dad of a boy in my sister's year, who's daughter was my prep buddy when I was in grade 6 at Hartwell Primary. So he was chatting about that. Another was another parent we knew (well) from the school.
This evening, I watched more tv and helped Nikki get sorted for the trip. Packing and stuff. I think she has everything...I hope. lol.
I watched another ep of Sliders and started falling asleep, so I had to have me some coffee.
Today I realised I have not written in my diary/journal since early December 2005...so I will have to write a little something there, but I've been so busy doing my posts here. I like to have it in the journal though, I should print this all out...that could be a lot of paper. hmm.
Well I am looking forward to my day out with my friends tomorrow and then coming home to watch the new episodes of Crossing Jordan and Las Vegas.
I also have to point out that it's totally weird that Joanie from Providence is now on Joey....lol. I loved Joanie, she was cool.
Anyhoo....
Toodles Y'all....wow....

Still Grumpy, Still Sleepy
Still hot too!
Today was warmish, but had moments of rain and cool breezes. I didn't do anything today. I didn't go to Em's as there was issues with transportation for myself. I spent the rest of the day sitting around at home.
This morning after watching Providence, I returned a call from someone at the Safeway Recruitment office, that I got yesterday, but didn't get the message till last night. She asked if I was still interested in a position and so I have a group interview next week. Hopefully that will come through! - I'm crossing my fingers.
I also got a letter from my TAFE today. They want me to go pay my fees and enrol officially on the 24th and then classes are supposed to start on the 6th...I was really hopeing they'd start a week or 2 later. Oh well.
I also printed out the form for a health care card today, so I will have to fill that out and send that off...or whatever I have to do with it.
Nikki didn't get home till almost 2pm, and she was tired and worn out. -meaning mostly grumpy.
I spent the evening watching Sliders, Will and Grace, NCIS, Gilmore Girls, Friends etc etc. Not much really. Oh and I got to hear Pauley Perrette's (Abby from NCIS) one line in Brother Bear. Lol.
Oooo and after watching Sliders tonight, I watched the rest of the ep of Law and Order, and then the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and then Conan. I wasn't going to watch Conan, but I waited to see who they had on, and it was a repeat with Molly Sims (Delinda Deline from Las Vegas) and so I HAD to watch it....and tape it. lol. I LOVE her! She is a nut...as are most cool people these days. lol.
Mum is home tomorrow, so there are a few things planned. A few things to be done before their trip on Thursday. I am meeting up with the gang in the city on Thursday, and will then come home and watch my shiny shiny new eps of Crossing Jordan and Las Vegas. I can't wait! -They are still not downloaded fully yet. Doh!

Boring and Hot
I was still grumpy today....it's possible that I am PMS-ing..... :P
I got up, everyone else was still asleep. I watched Providence, read the paper, flicked etc. I didn't rush to have my shower, but was out by 10:30am. Nikki got up after that and she moseyed (I have no idea how to spell that word. lol) around. She got a call from her friend Laura, who invited her over there. So at 1pm, (Scott was up by then) she was supposed to get picked up by Laura, but she called and asked if one of us could walk Nic around. Scott did it, as I was watching tv and my sore leg from yesterday is still sore.
-I changed the bandaids on it today, and put Detol on it and I have a bruise on it, it's not overly pretty. lol.
I was bored in the afternoon and felt like watching some Crossing Jordan. So I watched Sactuary, and just after it finished, I was flicking and on came this movie called 'Hennessy'. It made me laugh. lol.
Nikki was supposed to come home at 4pm, but called after 5pm asking if she could stay the night. I was all grumpy because Mum doesn't want to buy white bread anymore, and I don't eat brown bread. I won't have much for lunch tomorrow I'm guessing. Wah. I get grumpy when I'm tired and/or hungry.
Mum got angry with me for not calling some person from Safeway back, as they had apparently left a message. -I never check the messages, especially as they are usually old (no one ever deletes them) and also the phone is so low down that you don't generally look at it. I will call back tomorrow though. It'd be nice to get a job, at least a few hours a week or even 1 shift. *shrugs* I could use some cash.
I was going to go to the movies with Nikki tomorrow, but since she will probably be out all day, that's not happening. We will probably do that next week.
Tonight I watched another ep of Sliders, in which they were talking about Australia A LOT and the people had some of the dodgiest Aussie accents I have EVER heard! They mention Australia on that show a lot. It's weird. lol. I spent the whole time being so embarrased for Australia and at the crappiness of it all. lol.
I then watched 2 more eps of CJ and then Leno and Conan. I watched the outtakes from Las Vegas again, cause they're funny. hehe.
I am currently downloading the next ep of Crossing Jordan. I was hoping to have it done by tomorrow morning, but I don't think that's gonna happen. If not I will wait till Thursday, when I will have no worries about other people in the house. yay!
Nighty night don't let the bed bugs bite! :D

I got up, everyone else was still asleep. I watched Providence, read the paper, flicked etc. I didn't rush to have my shower, but was out by 10:30am. Nikki got up after that and she moseyed (I have no idea how to spell that word. lol) around. She got a call from her friend Laura, who invited her over there. So at 1pm, (Scott was up by then) she was supposed to get picked up by Laura, but she called and asked if one of us could walk Nic around. Scott did it, as I was watching tv and my sore leg from yesterday is still sore.
-I changed the bandaids on it today, and put Detol on it and I have a bruise on it, it's not overly pretty. lol.
I was bored in the afternoon and felt like watching some Crossing Jordan. So I watched Sactuary, and just after it finished, I was flicking and on came this movie called 'Hennessy'. It made me laugh. lol.

Family, Vegas and Dragons
I'm kinda out of it. I hardly remember what I have been up to....that could be due to the fact that I haven't done anything though...
Well yesterday I sat around on the computer untill Scott left and then I watched the new ep of Las Vegas. It was good, with a few not so great bits and pieces...but meh.
So that's 12 now that I have seen. Sheesh! I have only seen 9 of Crossing Jordan. 10 airs sunday night. Yay. So due to the time difference, I will download that Monday night or maybe Tuesday night. I will probably wait until Thursday, when I have the house to myself to watch it.
Yay, my family is going up to Canberra next week to visit our friends up there. I don't want to go this time. I am a bit old, and sorta not really feeling comfortable in either group, plus I wanted the house to myself for a few days. I can't wait. I'm probably going to have people over at some point! yay! hehe.
-Which reminds me I need to get onto that...I have mentioned it, but I haven't done anything about details really.
So anyways...yesterday Nikki and I were home alone for most of the day and after Las Vegas, I watched The View, and then Nic and I took all the decorations of the Christmas Tree and packed them away.
We didn't do anything else really, just stayed around the house and played the Sims2 I think. lol.
Last night I watched a lot of tv. I was bored. But not when Will and Grace came on. It was a LIVE ep, it was very cute and funny. -I squeeled too loud at one point. I think the next few blocks heard me. hehe.
After that I watched a bit of Law and Order and then Nikki and I watched the first ep of Season 2 of Sliders on my dvds. Then I went and read another chapter of The Garden of the Purple Dragon, till Dad had gone to bed. I watched the next 2 eps on my Las Vegas dvds (season 2), including one of my faves, Tainted Love - the Valentine's day ep. It's too funny! hehe.
I went straight to bed after and read 2 more chapters of my book. I was going to finish it, but decided I wanted to hold onto it a little longer, even though there are other books I want to read, and went on the comp instead.
I ment to write my blog entry..but I forgot. I did write a bit more of my script though :D!
Today Nikki and I are working on cleaning up her room, and we have a few other little things to do.
Tonight Dad's family is coming over for a BBQ for Nan's birthday...I am tired of seeing my family. But oh well. We are going down to the beach to see Mum's family on Sunday. I get to drive. yay. Hopefully Scott won't complain....I will drive home maybe...We'll see.
Well time to go tidy

Another Day, Another 5 cents
...or another day of doing everything and nothing.
Today I watched A LOT of tv. I watched my usual Providence. - After getting up at 10 past 8 to help my sister with breakfast.
After that I put on the washing, and sat down to watch 2 more eps of Crossing Jordan. Both GREAT GREAT eps. -Its a really really great season this year.
Then I watched the View, and half watched Touched by an Angel, while playing with the dvd burning program on my computer. I am trying to decided whether to put all the downloaded eps on to dvds that are playable on my dvd play...or just to burn them onto a data dvd that I can play on the comp, as I will be taping all the eps anyways when they come on next year... I guess it will depend how my finances are.
With my mum at work now, its just me and Scott, which worked out great today, he slept in till almost 12 (or possibly just after). I did the laundry, opened all the curtains, helped Nikki get ready for school and washed the dishes. - I am saying it's Scott's turn for dishes tomorrow...but i know he won't do it. Its SO not fair.
Oh well. I will just do what I can.
Tonight I watched 2 more eps of Sliders and then started with my Las Vegas dvds. I watched 2 eps of that.
I am now putting more cds onto my iPod. Slowly getting through them.
Got nothing else planned for the week. May meet up with Jacinta next week, maybe see my girls sometime soon. Its been a little while. There will be more tv (and computer ep) watching I am sure. I may rent a movie Friday night. I'll see how it goes.

Thats It, Thats All, Had Fun, Had a Ball
Today was my last EVER trip to the Royal Children's Hospital for check ups. Now that I am 20, and it has been 10 years since I went into remission, they are kicking me out and sending me off to Peter MacCallum for my annual check ups. :D This is very exciting, but also was really sad. I have been ready each time for it to be my last trip there, for a few years now, but last year they told me that this years visit would be my last. I did good today, I got slightly reminissy...and a little sad, not tears or anything which was good. lol. I saw Dr Tiederman for the last time, bought stickers from the gift shop for the last time, had Maccas after my check up for the last time(well at that place anyways... :P)... I am glad to be moving on, especially to a place for grown ups. I have felt too old for that place for years now. Well here is to memories, both good and bad of the past and to the future, whatever it may bring. Also my Doc said that I am cured. Which is a scary thought, and also a great one. I will never feel completely free, there will always be this little thought in the back of my mind that it will come back, or that something else will happen... thats just what Today was my last EVER trip to the Royal Children's Hospital for check ups.

So far its working out okay.
Okays and onto other more interesting topics, and much less deep....
Today I was out of the hospital by 11:30 and we were home at 12...which was freaky, that NEVER happens. -Though we didn't have any tests or anything...
I taped Providence and Law and Order while I was out. I watched Law and Order tonight, and it was a Jill ep, so I was happy(I saw her on it yesterday and almost freaked out :P) and so I watched it and I guessed early on that it was the ep where her character dies. And it was. lol. It was just kinda freaky that way. I knew the ep sounded like an important and good one, and I guess I was right. lol.
I also watched another ep of Sliders.
My iPod came today. So I have spent the afternoon and evening putting music onto it(and videos too). I have put a few CDs onto it so far. I will put heaps more on tomorrow probably.
I also hope to start watching my Las Vegas dvds soon. But with all these great shows being on Foxtel at the moment, its hard to find time to watch them :(
My Mother also has a new job, which starts tomorrow. That leaves my brother and I home together for the whole holidays. Doh. Oh well. And Nikki finishes school on the 21st of December. Which if you ask me sucks. They finish school on the Wednesday, and Christmas is on the Sunday. The girl barely gets a month of holidays! *shrugs* I am SO glad I am not in Primary School anymore.
Jacinta and I might be movie-ing it next week. I dunno what we could see yet, but we will look. lol.

Shopping Fun
Woo! I seem to be back into the swing of things, specifically into writing a new post each day at the moment. yay! hehe.
So what's new with me? Not a lot really. But I have been busy today.
Nikki had the day off from school, so me, mum and Nic decided to go down to Southland and stop at the American foods store on the way. We left around 11:30am....after I almost had a heart attack from seeing Jill Hennessy in an ep of Law and Order, which I was not really watching(I was just seetting my tape for The View and Touched By an Angel) and so I got very excited when I saw her. lol. It was the first time I had actually seen her in it(and I didn't get to watch it for long), it was kinda weird. She looked so...funny. lol. The hair and the clothes...just ....bad. lol. -okay well not BAD, but just really stranged and not quite right. lol.
Anyways...
So we set off for the day, stopping at Scott's school (Camberwell High) to drop in something there, before driving down to the American Food Store in Bentleigh. I drove.
Its a great store, there are lots of things to choose from. I got S'mores Pop Tarts, a box of Cheerios, Jujy Fruits(jujubes), and Nikki and I got S'mores bars and Mum got York mint patties. Oh and Nic got a tootsie roll too. All good stuff. :P
After that we drove to Southland, after finding a park(with not too much dificulty), we walked around. We stopped at a shoe shop and after trying on a few pairs, I had no luck. But Mum and Nikki found nice shoes for them. I hate shoes. Well I love shoes, I just hate my feet, cause they don't fit any of the nice shoes. :(
We walked around and looked in many more stores. We got lunch in the food court and then looked at more shops. We were just about to leave, but then Nic and I spotted a JB HIFI, which must have been new (They were still working inside) . So we went in and I browsed and found the new Las Vegas dvds. I got Season 1, I did more browsing while Mum went off to take a phone call. I almost bought Stand by Me, but I decided I would wait, I did get a set of blank dvds though.
The Las Vegas dvds are very shiny. They are in one of those box things, instead of a proper plastic case, which may become annoying, but for now its all very cool. Me is happy. lol.
I also saw the Soundtrack, I will keep an eye out for that one later.
After that we finally were done and we headed home. We had a brief encouter with a jackass in his truck, who decided to have a go at us and then cut us off. grr. He also hadn't seemed to have learned of this new fangled thing called an INDICATOR. *shrugs*. hehe
By the time we got home, I had a really bad headache, and then Mum, Nic and I went to the supermarket. I spent the evening watching tv. Nic and I watched another ep of Sliders and ate our S'mores bars. They were good. Yummy.
I now have 7 eps of Crossing Jordan downloaded. I just hope I will be able to find time to watch the next 5 sometime soon. I am fussy, and want the house almost to myself to watch them, which is tricky this time of year. Oh well. It will happen eventually.
Enough for now. Tomorrow I am going to the Children's Hospital for my very last trip there. It will be very sad for it to all be over and to have to get a new hospital and new doctors and all. But most importantly I will miss the place and the people. I have a lot of bad memories of that place, but also a lot of good ones. Its like a 2nd home to me and I just hope I don't get too emotional about it tomorrw.

Hot and Sleepy
Its now 5 minutes past midnight as I am writing this, making it the 2nd of December. My golly, where did the year go? It seems to have vanished is a cloud of smoke or something. Its scary how fast time is flying the older I get. Then again, its not just me, every seems to be saying how fast time is flying. *shrugs*
Well what have I been up to? Not a lot really. I have really enjoyed having free time this week to do nothing stuff, like watching tv and exploring the internet. Oh and then there was the occaisional supermarket shop.
Last night I started watching my shiny new Sliders dvds that I got from my lovely friends for my birthday. My one problem with watching tv at night now is that I get SO sleepy! I can't concentrate. So I may have to start watching them during the day.
Today my mother let me order my birthday present. I had to wait till she had the money on her credit card. I am getting the new Ipod with video for my birthday AND Christmas. But its worth it. I need something new to play my music on, especially on the train and it will also be cool to have videos on it too. That will come next week hopefully...or the week after.
It was really warm here today, and now the house is really hot. I am also tired all the time. I can't wait till the weekend so that I can sleep.
Going to Brett's tomorrow night for a BBQ with some people. -Actually I don't know how many people there are going to end up being there, but I'm sure it'll be fun. :D
