Game on @ Macquarie Uni

On Saturday October 29 I went on a school excursion to Game On at Macqaurie Uni.

To get there we had to leave school at 6.30am- Mum and I had to leave home  at 5.30 am to get to school on time to meet the bus.

This photo shows Darren the robot from Good Game Spawn Point - one of my favourite shows on ABC TV.



Thank you Mr. Hackett for organising this excursion.

It was worth the early start from Temora.

Nickeoldeon Kids Choice Awards Sydney - I had the slime of my life!

The KCA's were awesome and I got slimed at the end by all the celebritys. The security people rotated the slime pit audience and I got right at the front for the last session:)
I was slimed by Jenette McCurdy ( Sam from I Carly) Nathan- (Freddie from I Carly), Guy Sebastian, Matt Preston, CM Punk, Cody Simpson and  Natalie Bassingthwaite. It was EPIC!

Mum and Dad were sitting in the seats and took photos of the slime-fest.



Nickeoldeon Kid's Choice Awards- Sydney Entertainment Centre

So I have tickets to the KCA's in Sydney. I have tickets for the floor - AKA the "Slime Pit".
There is a huge crowd outside the Sydney Entertainment Centre for the walking of the Orange Carpet.
This is me - ready for the KCA's.

I'm wearing my "Space Invader" T-Shirt from Paris. I decided to wear this shirt because that the slime would not be likely to damage this shirt. I got this shirt in Paris because of the anonymous artist who creates mosaic "Space Invader" art on buildings all over Paris. We saw a lot of these mosaics in Paris, they are really cool.
I'm looking forward to the Kid's Choice Awards - I've been wanting to go for the last couple of years, but this is the first year we were able to get tickets. Thank You Mum and DAD!

Central Coast of NSW

We used to live at Woy Woy on the NSW Central Coast, so this school holidays we spent part of our time visiting friends from our time living on the coast.
This photo is of me and my friend Grace at her house. She has an amazing cinema room which I am very envious of. I also visited my friend Siena, who I used to go to school with at St. John the Baptist in Woy Woy.

Grace is going to America in April 2012 - so we looked at the hotels she is staying at in New York and Studio City LA on Google street view.  It is good to do this if you are booking hotels - so you get a feel for the area before you book.

We had dinner at the Dragon's Door restaurant at Erina. It was good and I'd recommend it as a good family restaurant. It is really close to Hoyts cinema and the ice skating rink, as well as the shops.

Canberra - The Australian capital city

Located just 175km from Cootamundra is the city of Canberra, within the Australian Capital Territory.
On Tuesday September 27 we took my cousins to Canberra for a two day trip. We stayed at the Canberra Motor Village, a quiet caravan park with comfortable cabins and motel rooms located in O'Connor, just 4km from the city centre.
Canberra Zoo is a small zoo with a remarkable collection of animals including white lions, tigers and cheetahs as well as Australian native animals. We took my cousins, Annika and Olivia, to Canberra, as they had never been there before.



Then we went to Black Mountain Tower, a radio and telephone transmission tower with observation decks at about 8o mtrs above the top of Black Mountain. From the top you can get a really good feel for where everything is in Canberra and how the suburbs are laid out.

Mum and my cousins also went to the Mint, where the Australian coins are made, the National archives and Parliament house.

Canberra is well worth visiting, whether you are visiting from overseas or a local. The quality of the museums and galleries is world class and it is a city which is not too big. It really is the bush capital because you even see kangaroos on some of the roads in Canberra.
