Grandma is coming. Here. For three days. THREE DAYS!!! I'm gonna die. And its school nights so I can't go live at my friends places, tho we're gonna do our best. And, to make matters even worse, she's stealing my room! Like, I get no choice in this at all! Apparently there's no where else for her to sleep...I suggested the twin's room, Ray's room, the cupboard, the park bench...
Just when I need my room, my privacy, my space, the most it gets taken away from me. And Mum can't seem to see that everything will go so much smoother if I can hide in my room for the three days! Who is she? Coming into my house and making me run for cover. I bet she'll totally hate my trombone practise. I'll have to do a lot of that while she's here. And cause i won't have my room I'll have too do it in the lounge room! How sad!
Anyway, if she does steal my room I'm gonna cover the walls with pictures of hot black guys (Taylor Launter), to make it as uncomfortable for her as possible. Stupid racist anoying Grandma.

Bored...
I'm bored. I'm sitting at home, by my self, and I don't really feel like doing anything. Actually, I feel like sitting infront of the TV and watching a movie I've never seen before. But I've seen everything in the cupboard 101 times already.
I could practise my flute. I could read my book. I could go for a run. I could get rid of these hickups! I could curl up in bed and go to sleep. I'm in the mood for talking. But I'm home by my self for another hour!
*sigh* I might go see if I can get into my book.

Mt Field
We spent Thursday night up on Mt Field with my friend Jacqui and her family. Loren came with us too. We got there at about midday on Thursday. The wether wasn't good. We got an almost clear bit to walk from the car park, up the jeep trail to the ski huts. Jacqui and her family are members of the Mawson ski club, right next door to Oldina (where we were a couple of weekends ago). So we had my family (me, Rachel, Keziah, Rekekah and Mum - Dad came up for the night, but he still had to work), Jacqui's family (Jacqui, Bernard, Cathy and Rick - the people we go walking with) and Loren.
We played games all thurday afternoon, cause it just wasn't nice outside. We played Mafia, poker, Compadibility and Truth. We played a lot of Marfia and a lot of Truth (like truth or dare, but without the dares).
On friday we woke up to a beautiful morning!

The Twins ready to go walking on Friday morning. We went up to the Lion's Den, a massive bolder field with lots of caves and passagewys between the rocks.
Of we go! Jacqui, Loren, Me (with the pack - Mum didn't want to carry it uphill) and Beck.
Us at the Lake Seal lookout. You should be able to work out who's who by now.

The Twins went down to Tarn Shelf with mum before us. We were still too busy exploring. But the we had to go join them before they ate all our food!
You've got Jacqui in front, then Loren, then me, Rachel and Bernard.
Before we left the ski hut, Loren and I made a pact to go swimming, no matter how cold and miserable it was. And it was very cold and miserable. So cold and miserable that Bernard was questioning my sanity. He sould no by now that nothing gets inbetween Hannah and water! And Loren had never been swimming in a mountain tarn before, so I had to go with her, obviously!
Jumping in. The trick is not too think about it. As soon as you think about it, you start to think its not such a good idea. Loren made that mistake and took ages to get in. I didn't. Not this time! I've learnt that lesson before! Loren ended up half falling in, I did a graceful bomb with a massive splash! :-)
We then swam round to scare some old people with our freakish-ness. Bernard and jacqui followed us round the shore, demanding that we get out and put jackets on before we die of some horrible disease.
We didn't leave Mawson until it was dark. We just weren't in any hurry at all! Us kids played flags until it got too dark, and Mum and Cathy played Scrabble. Then we left - walking along the jeep trail by torchlight.
Loren, who's just started The Tomorrow Series, thought it was the coolest thing ever. She's never done any bushwalking or anything, and she kept saying how it all reminded her so much of the trips into Hell in the books. :-)
Easter
We spent the actual Easter weekend (Friday till Tuesday) at Lake Leake. The morleys were there too! :-) Except for Sam, cause she was in South Africa. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be without her. It was wierd to have no1 to play games with, and it was lonely when James was out fishing in his boat, but all in all it could have been a lot worse.
We walked right the way round the lake. It took about 4 hours, and we were walking fairly fast. It was just me and James and Rachel and Ollie, not the twins. It was fun. :-) We met these old people at Kalangadoo Bay, and they told us it would be impossible to get through the snowy - the river at the back of the lake. And then when we got there it was just a trickle! We jumped over it without even getting our feet wet! Actually, it was quiet dissapointing. James and I were both looking forward to a bit of a challange.
The hardest part was getting past the damn wall. We had to folllow the river downstream a bit and then wade across. It was a raging torrent compared to the snowy! It was knee deep on me, and it freaked Ollie out a bit - he's not a very good swimmer. Then we came up behind the damn. Which is STRICTLY no tresspassing. And the caretaker saw us through his window! He was giving us the death stare! James sais that if he'd questioned us, he would have just blamed it on me and my evil teenaged influence. :-)
We also went trout fishing; Dad got a big brown, James got 2 little rainbows and a few perch, I got nothing. Nothing all weekend. :-(
But eel fishing is a different story! I got two then, James only got one! And I only lost one! James lost tons! We were sharing a rod and after I caught two I let James and Kez try for all the rest cause I'd already caught my fair share. Kez, Beck and Ollie all caught one. Ray caught two, but she was hogging a rod all for herself, so thats understandable.
We wasted the day on Monday in the car. We went all the way up to Ansons Bay to see Grandma. Aparrently she couldn't make the trip down to Lake Leake to see us, even though she was apparently desperate. So she guilt trapped Mum into taking us up there. 5 hours in the car. 5 hours in the car stuck behind caravans half the time. (No offence to Caravan people) I think its very rude of Grandma to expect us to go up there and see her. We only get 8 weeks holiday a year and she expects us to waste them visiting her! She's a pentioner! She can come visit us anytime she wants, and does she? NO! But then she mopes around whenever we're on holidays and we're not visiting her! Stupid hipocrite!
Its not so bad once we get there. Not when Dad's with us. He and me and Peter and sometimes Rachel go out fishing. In the few hours we were there, I only saw Grandma over lunch, and again to say good bye. Only long enough for her to tell me I was gonna have scares all over my face for the rest of my life from my pimples. What a lovely grandmotherly thing to say. Understandably, I prefer to spend time out fishing with Peter. Peter's cool. :-) I caught 4 flathead, a coota and a red gernard. Total for the weekend: more than James!!! The only good thing about Ansons Bay: Fishing!!!
We were back at Lake Leake on Monday night. The beds at Grandma's are just too horrible to be worth it.
Tuesday was just more mucking around with the Morleys. James pretty much gave up on fishing, so we rode around, exploring all the little firetrails with Kez and Ollie. I taught them all the stupid little games we play in Maths, and we played them for an hour or so. Then we had to leave! :-( And we won't see them again probably until show weekend! And that's absolutely ages away!!!

Car Wash
All that time ago on election day, we had a carwash at school to raise money for our band tour to NZ. I just found these photos on my camera when I was getting of all the photos of our eater break. Mum took them when I wasn't there! Enjoy!
My band friends washing cars. :-)
