melwil1. I got home yesterday to find a real surprise in my post box - I have been nominated for a Caloundra City Australian Day cultural award. With a little further investigation (ie. ringing my mother) I found out that I wasn't nominated by a parent, but by another community group in Peachester, which gives me a warm tingly feeling inside.
2. Yesterday I found the best new Young Adult's book series. It's called Cherub by Robert Muchamore, and it's about British spies who are aged between ten and seventeen. The children are all orphans, or have been removed from parents who are in jail, and they live on a secret campus in England. It sounds a bit kooky, but it was a really exciting read and I'm looking forward to reading others in the series. A must for Spooks fans.
3. I have my second driving lesson tomorrow. I chose automatic because of anxiety about driving, but the first lesson went extremely well. I should have my license by the end of January!

on 2005-12-14 03:45 am (UTC)Good luck with the driving. I only just got mine a few months back. Don't feel bad about having an auto. It's so much easier, and auto cars these days are quite good (as opposed to the old car my husband's grandmother used to have that would change gears randomly- even when it didn't need it).

ARGH - THE ROAD AREN'T SAFE ANYMORE (I don't have a car so as of yet I don't really threaten the roads :P)
