We do some pretty cool stuff in school sometimes.
Why are they closing it down?
And speaking of closing things down, they closed down my favourite bookshop a while ago. I was devastated.
And I think we might be getting a new Prime Minister soon; nobody really likes ours.
Well, a lot of things are different between the two countries, so that doesn't surprise me.
I would love to take you with me.
One place also reminded me of the video game Pitfall - did you ever play that?
I like a lot of different sports - futsal, netball, taekwondo, athletics. Anything really.
What about you? Are you sporty at all?
My sister absolutely hates the song Material Girl though, because she used it in her high school drama performance, and after the number of times they practised it, she grew to hate it.
But yeah, I will suggest having 80s music to my friend.
Well what are you waiting for then? Come visit me... I mean, Australia.
That might be a good idea then.
Still, no harm in looking, right?
Yeah. I was a strange kid.
I don't like salad dressing. Or tomato sauce. Or anything really. So I just stay away from salads. She found out a couple of weeks later, when she came home one weekend and Mum was like, 'Okay, we're having roast, but Chess is just having the vegetables', and my sister asked why, and I was like, 'I don't eat meat anymore' so she went on with a huge speech about how we never tell her anything.
Yeah, I got frustrated by it too, but it was worth it.
Oh! I think I played Cake Mania too. And I also loved a game called Feeding Frenzy - which was actually about fish, but it was awesome.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we do. The driver's side is the right, so we drive on the left... if that makes sense? Since we were colonised by Britain and all, we tend to follow them in a lot of ways. We have instructors too, but you have to book and pay for driving lessons if you want them and then you just drive around town... they have brakes on their side too, to stop you trying to kidnap them or something I suppose.
Good luck getting the job. I think you'd make a great waitress.
And if they don't hire you, just throw a pizza at them.
Well, maybe not. But picture it at least.
Exactly. So, mixed feelings about the whole thing - but mostly relief, actually. We don't even get a muck-up day, and we didn't have a retreat, and it's all just quite ridiculous really.
Send me photos if you do it. I think it looks really cool. And yeah, I found out about the colour-change stuff while I was reading Girlfriend, because that's just how cool I am.
Also, I skipped ahead and just read the 'It is getting bigger' comment, without realising what it related to, and, well... you can probably imagine where my mind went.
