studying for exams sucks


i'm so unmotivated and in a generally "cbf" mood >.<


anyway this is a pointless journal because i was sick of seeing the last one

on monday i went up to my grandparents farm, which was in the middle of the bushfires in victoria.
the firefront actually went through their farm, but somehow both the house and the horses that live there have survived.
luckily they don't actually live there, so it wouldn't be the worst thing that could happen if the house DID burn down, but a lot of time and effort went into building it, as well as money.
driving up there was quite terrifying. the surroundings are all normal, and then you turn a corner in the road and all you can see is black. both sides of the road, in the distance, everywhere. we drove for an hour before we saw green again.
you can hear about how big the fires were, you can see aerial shots of them. but seeing them from the ground like that was completely different. you just can't get a picture in your mind until you've seen it for yourself.
anyway, like i said, the farm is okay. but everything except the house, and a few patchs of grass, has been burnt. thought it's gone from black to brown now, which i guess is a good sign.
i did take a lot of photos but da is being gay and not letting me upload them yet, so i'll have to try again later.

thankyou
I FEEL SO POPULAR
not really.

i have a lot of homework atm,
i just tried to cook some biscuits which i am not calling 'disaster biscuits' because they just completely crumbled, so i put them in a box and spread icing all over them C:<
yehhh. bushfires at the mo' are making me sad, i just want them all to end but there's more popping up everyday, some in the middle of suburbia which are suspicious.
seriously, why would you light fires in the middle of the worst bushfires australia has ever seen? >.<

OVER N OUT

i logged on to find 30 comment/activity messages...that may not sound like much to everyone else but it's more than i've had ever :l
i really didn't think my crappy little "self portraits" (if you can call them that >_< ) would receive so much attention. my page views also went up by 100 overnight

i am quite mind boggled.

i've written in here before but i deleted all my entries


well anyhoo i've deleted over half the people i was watching, because i got pretty sick of clicking through 80 deviations a day >.<

AND AND AND
for my 16th birthday i got a canon eos digital slr <33333
so hopefully the quality of my photos will improve,
seeing as i am no longer limited by the crappyness of my previous camera.
huzzah!
