Rafting was fun and way less scary than I thought it would be. There was this flat stretch for a bit so we jumped out of the boat, hooked our feet under the rope and got dragged along (and they let us float through a couple of low level rapids) so that was fun. I just wish it had gone for longer - every time I get back in the water I remember how much I love it haha
I got back into Australia at midday on Tuesday and my sleep is so messed up still lol. Slept in to 11am because because I was on the plane, didn’t sleep at all Tuesday night because I was too busy writing my English speech (I wrote one whilst I was away but I hated it so I redid it - I made the minimum time requirement though so I passed). Then I slept 11 hours Wednesday night, then 4 hours last night (I was too busy watching Criminal Minds). I should probably actually go to bed early tonight.
My brother had a lump on his neck before I left, he’d had some tests on it but it was still inconclusive, turns out it was cancerous so he had to have it cut out - he’s fine now, the doctors reckon they got all of it but he has a wicked scar along his neck, his ear is numb, and he can’t move his arm properly. That was a *fun* surprise to come back to
I’m not too far behind in maths, I’m already halfway caught up. We’re doing matrices and I already did it in 1/2, although I seem to remember guessing a lot of that SAC
Outdoor Ed I can catch up on fairly easily because we’re mostly just doing things from our textbook.
Enviro on the other hand....
We’re doing a prac at the moment and I have no clue what’s going on - seriously I had to ask the teacher 3 times before he actually explained, and he got annoyed at me for not doing anything (kinda hard when I don’t know what on earth is going on
). I still don’t really know what’s going on, we’re testing water to see how much detergent and dirt is in it. I assume it’s for our poster SAC.
I’m not going back to work until next Thursday, so hopefully I’ll be mostly caught up by then. I have to read I am Malala before next Wednesday so maybe I’ll actually put all my time on public transport to good use for once
I’ve been enjoying hugging my dogs. I never used to miss them whilst I was at school but now I look forward to going home just so I can hug them (although they’re both in desperate need of haircuts). Also my mum and brother fed my fish way too much. They’ve grown a ton and they’re all fat
I told them that they’re better off missing food rather than being fed twice but they just kept feeding them - it’s really easy to kill fish through over feeding but goldfish can easily go a few days without food. Their tank is kind of too small for them now but we don’t really have anywhere we can put a bigger one (I seriously think they’re 2cm longer than they were before I left). My brother keeps joking that I should feed them to the turtle
