Song of the Day!

Isn’t really an “authentic” song written by her, but I thought her voice was mad amazing. Hope you enjoyed it!

Useless.

My day today was just horrible.

I had training today (I play netball in school) and I was late for it! I had to wait for the bus for 20 minutes and when I reached school, I had to run 2km immediately. It’s pretty tiring since I haven’t ran (due to ankle issues) for about 2 months.

Then there were matches within the team and stuff, but guess what? The coach didn’t pick me for a single game. That made me mad. I was so pissed off. I felt as though I wasted 3 hours of my life in school.

He’d just stare at me, then pick someone else. I felt so worthless and useless, that I was insignificant. Maybe I’m a pretty bad player, but he could at least give me one chance?

During practice, he gave me a useless role. Literally, useless, not that I wasn’t appreciating the role he gave me, but it was useless. I could have stood at the transverse line, not move and they’d carry on fine without me.

If he was going to waste so much of my time, why am I still going to school? They should just say “oh, you’re bad at netball and you don’t have a chance to be on the competitive team, so stay at home!”

I have been trying hard, mind them. The match I played on Monday (when coincidentally, none of them were there) was fantastic. I intercepted a couple of balls and managed to keep my opponent behind me, unable to get the ball.

I also practice my passes with the team captain, and they’re improving. Just one chance for me to prove to them what I got seems a little too tough, huh?

I felt so useless.

Horrible, horrible day indeed! Now I’m in a horrible mood.

I shall bake tomorrow, to relieve me of my stress. Christmas goodies of course, they make me so happy. And can I say, I am a (amateur) master at making biscotti. They taste so amazing!

Here are a few recipes of what I’ll most probably be baking tomorrow.

I have an absolute weakness for peppermint.

I gotta go get the peppermint extract for the recipes.

I honestly can’t wait for Christmas! With all the cooking and baking – I can’t wait to make potato gratin. Managed to find a recipe by Jamie Oliver!

Geez I’m so hungry now.

OH! And seriously, Nigella Lawson is frickin amazing.

Bondi Rescue

I’m definitely sure I’m not the only one that’s obsessed with the lifeguards on the show.

I really have a fancy for Maxi and that Blonde guy with a brunette mustache.

I really want to visit there soon and (though it isn’t a good thing) be rescued by a lifeguard. I’ll definitely take a picture with everyone of them, sweet!

Kerr and Maxi together – adorable.

I get so excited when I watch Bondi Rescue on TV. Ooh, joy! Oh and can I state how proud I am that I’m followed by the Bondi Lifeguard’s Instagram.

They’re all so sporty and hunky, it turns me on. Okay, too much information there.

Watch an episode! You’ll get hooked. A great platform to learn the Australian slang and accent, for me anyway!
