hello!

• got a 'job'. i'll be getting $60 a week minimum for mowing lawns and maybe more if other stuff comes up
• i can stay here and i don't have to pay board and mum will buy my food so long as i help out around the house
• other than that not a lot has been going on. uhh we put up the christmas tree yesterday! no decorations yet though
• we have a huge new table in the courtyard and we moved a lot of stuff so now there's tonnes of space and we're going to turn it into a kind of outdoor lounge
• today I downloaded the original age of empires game. it's so weird! i've forgotten how to do a lot of stuff cause it's been 3-4 years since I last played
• I learned how to make bread today and I also made a chocolate cake, which everyone loved
• also mowed three lawns in 25 degree heat! not fun
• on wednesday night I went to a pub quiz and got to ask a round of questions. then we (me, jess, keryn, james and isaac) went back to james' house and had a doctor who marathon
• that's it I think
• yay
