Brighten up your street

I really like going through city's and streets and seeing art around, specially in small town places like Waihi where these photos come from.

  

Skating.

On of my first lessons was that I wasn't going 'skate boarding' I was just going 'Skating'.  During my assingment weeks I had the urge to go skating but i firgured probably not such a great idea as I would probably end up breaking something.  So as soon as my assignments were handed in i hit the pavement with Loryn and have been giving it ago.  Any tips??

Pink Walk

Once a year Hamilton have a 'Pink Walk'.  It's a walk around our lake all dressed up in pink and all funds to go to the breast cancer foundation.  It a fun afternoon with people of all ages in all sorts of pink wear and it goes to a great cause.

Macaroon!

Today is the beautiful Michelle's Birthday so Kristel and I decided to make something for her.  After about 2 hours of looking through cook books and searching the internet we finally decided to make macaroons.  We also decided that it would be fun to make them COLOURFUL! Hope she likes coconut =)

Boating

Yesterday in class we went boat racing! We were given news paper, ice block sticks, straws and tape.  Then we created our boats! They were interesting to say the least and there was a lot of laughing going on as we made them and raced them.

This one was my teams boat (note the mermaid on the front)

The Kingdom of Cambodia

This post is a very special one for me.  In the July holidays of this year me and 16 other from my church got on a plane to Cambodia.  We had an amazing time and left with so many stories to tell.  We meet so many people who I will never forget, and who I am so thankful that I meet.

Dinner time

Crossing over to the Island

Typical city street

I ate some!!

Bags piled up behind my head on the bus

A peace of my heart is in Cambodia now and I'm looking forward to be going back one day, hopefully one day not to far away

Leave me out

When I was over seas I picked up my very first digital camera, its just a basic point and shoot, but it seems to take some descent pictures.  Its pretty easy to use which is great for a non-manual reader like me.  I've been having a play with the settings and the latest one I've got a hang of is where all colours but one get turned grey.
