Adelaide!

Hey all!

Recently, I went to Adelaide for my semester break, it was great fun!

I went down for SA State Music Camp, and I got the same position as I did last year (second clarinet in the concert band). I had heaps of fun, and I was quite impressed with my social skills that I have gained since moving to Grafton. I reckon it may be because I'm around a heap of people nearly all the time now, whereas in SA, we were so isolated that I basically only hung out with my family. It was fun!

I also got to spend a lot of time with some friends I made a couple of years back. We played heaps of board games, which was awesome, because I love board games! The one we played most was Ticket To Ride; Nordic Countries, which we played every day (multiple times), except for the last day, when I was packing and most of them were out.

I also bought a game called 'The Resistance' while I was down there. It is one of my favourite games! It is a bit like mafia in the fact that you have a card, and nobody can know whether you're a resistance member or a spy, and you have to figure it out. But The Resistance is a million times better than mafia, and you use logic to figure it out.

I enjoyed catching up with old friends, and meeting new ones!

Fare the well, everyone!

Merry Monday

A picture to brighten up your Monday!

Wow, I haven't posted in a while..

Hello everybody!

How are you all? Sorry for neglecting you! Here's a quick update!

My TAFE course is going really well - I've finished the first semester with fairly good marks :D

In the last concert, I played a piece (The Theme From 'The Mission') with a friend - I played clarinet, and he played harp. It went really well!

I'm also going back to South Australia for SA Music Camp again this year, I'm really looking forward to it!

I haven't done much drawing in a while - too busy playing music :)

Talk to ya later,
Helena

Wishing all the Mums out there a Happy Mothers' Day! Especially to my own Mum! <3 :)

The Fashion Tag

I dunno, probably fairly plain. Tomboyish mostly, sometimes with a splash of girly :P

I dunno really. I have nearly everything I need... maybe a new pair of sandles (not that I need them)

Psychiatrist Joke

A group of psychiatrists were attending a convention. Four of them got together after to chat about the convention. One said to the other three, "People are always coming to us with their guilt and fears, but we have no one that we can go to when we have problems." 


Then one said, "Since we are all professionals, why don't we take some time right now to hear each other out?" 

The other three agreed. 

The first then confessed, "I have an uncontrollable desire to kill my patients." 

The second psychiatrist said, "I love expensive things and so I find ways to cheat my patients out of their money whenever I can so I can buy the things I want." 

The third followed with, "I'm involved with selling drugs and often get my patients to sell them for me." 

The fourth psychiatrist then confessed, "I know I'm not supposed to, but no matter how hard I try, I can't keep a secret..."
