My New Adventure

2011 is the start of my new adventure.
I am in 6LEIT with a small group of 15 other girls. I have to go early to bed and wake up by 7am reaching school before 825am.
I feel so privileged and grown-up when I proudly put on my uniform.
This is surely the start of something fantastic for me!

Getting Fit

I started my swimming training at Lilydale Swimming Club with a group of fast swimmers. The people are so friendly and helpful!We even have to be there earlier to do stretches and warm ups. The pool is within a dome, yes, we are training at the Centenary Pool.

Badminton is a game that requires focus, speed and flexibility. My mum thought it would be a great idea for me to learn to play properly and we were fortunate to find a club so very near to our place. The warm up was pretty exhausting, I had to run forward, backwards(i fell on my 3rd week, hitting my head, my coccyx-in fact the coccyx still hurts now as I start my school holidays), run sideways, twisting as we run, legwork, trying to serve properly,hitting the shuttlecock and not missing them!?!

House Warming 2nd Jan 2011

Welcome to my new house. A place far away from school, but near to the beautiful Yarra Valley. I feel as if I am on holiday everyday.

Christmas at Lilydale Lake

Our family joined the extended family of Aunty Pauline and Uncle Johnny at Lilydale Lake for a Christmas PigOut. Vanessa and her family came and contributed heaps of cold chicken wings to the already huge menu of Noodles, Spicy Salad, Huge Prawns,Lots of snacks and another box of uncooked food(unfirtunately, we could not findany unoccupied BBQ-hence we could not have a BBQ there).
There was an artificial beach at the lake so Sharon and I went playing with the sand, trying to build the biggest sand castle in the world(but then we failed).
It was a good way to spend time with friends and family on Christmas 2010.

I Set Up My Own Christmas Tree

Ok, i know this entry is abit late but I set up my own Christms tree in my new house in 2010!
We bought the tree and all the decorations from Kmart and I set it up without any help.
Isn't this beautiful?
