If there is a heaven, everyone will feel as though...

they are at a concert. The other night I went to see Imagine Dragons at the Palace with a very dear friend of mine. This is a bit stupid and sentimental to admit I guess, but every time I go to a concert I always return a little sadder - not because I didn't have a great time (THEY WERE FRAKKAN AWESOME!! I WANTED TO JUMP ONTO THE STAGE AND THEN HUG THEM ALL FOR BEING SO FRAKKAN AWESOME, AND THEN RUN AWAY BACK INTO THE CROWD) it's just that seeing people - strangers - enjoying something together and sharing in the atmosphere, so full of excitement and happiness...well I dunno...I wish life always felt like that I guess.

But enough of my sentimetal blabbing...Here are some pictures...we had a really good view from the balcony :D

and a video...which has for some reason, turned sideways...kind of ruins the effect...the concert was not sideways  

so it's been a while...

Hello again Dear Little Blog...It has been quite a while since I've posted here...I have no excuses...only that life gets in the way I guess...
Anyway, the last few months have been speeding by. Between volunteering at the Melbourne Writers Festival, keeping up with homework, and half starting all the other plans that dance in the back of my mind, I have been busy. But I'm happy to say that I still managed to find some time to clear that epic patch of weeds in the back yard and make way for some vegetable patches. Here is my handiwork so far...

Nasturtium et future lettuce

this patch is gonna be for silverbeet et lettuce (note the weeds taking over the background...just you wait weeds...just you wait...)

They have been living inside the laundry...this is what you would see if you were a nosy hobbit peering in...

apple tree, fig tree and basil 

peppermint :) 

Basil, with little basil seedies catching up:

It's really nice to be able to potter about for twenty minutes or so whenever I get home from work/uni, watering plants and making sure nobody has died. Last year I gave them all people names (the capsicums were all Giovanni) but this year I've planted so many different things that I'm gonna forget what they are if I do this...I will of course, give them people names as soon as they have all grown enough to be distinguishable from one another.

If anybody has any gardening tips or stories, I'd love to hear them, I'm still learning a lot about plants, just by mucking around in the garden mostly...Hope all you other gardeners are enjoying the sunny weather!
