Time. Never. Ceases. To. Dumbfound. Me.
Absolutely never.
How is it that it's already December? Wasn't it just August last time I checked?
2014 has been a fairly big year, not going to lie. Final year at school, graduation, became an adult, got my Learner's Permit which hasn't really been much use. I don't know, I suppose it's just been a busy year. I'm grateful, for the stress and motivation and inspiration, I just wish it would come back to me. Why is it that we take such things for granted?
Summer is reigning supreme and we're officially only two days in, when who am I kidding? It's been here since October's end. There's some sort of Christmas Beetle epidemic and I'm kind of over their buzzing lullabies. There's only 22 days left till Christmas and I've come to a realisation. If you don't have commercial television or go to the supermarket too often, it doesn't really hit you that it's 'holiday season'. It's all a marketing ploy but everyone knows that. I am looking forward to Christmas this year though because my grandparents moved into their new house and it's beyond beautiful. This will be a Christmas to remember, one to close off the year in a memorable manner.
I must say, school is really something to be grateful for too. I don't know how I've managed to forget most of the French I learnt over the past two years but it happened. The fact that we go through 13 years of school and are supposed to retain so much content is both ridiculous and impressive. So, well done to us.
One goal for this Christmas is to make a satirical holiday card. Like this one but more personal. Perhaps the family in shorts and singlets holding stubbies and wearing thongs, zinc casually striped across the face? I don't know, I think its sounds fair dinkum.
