My Filipino friend introduced me to Polvoron and my life has never been the same ever since. I'm eating one as we speak 

polvoron is love
polvoron is life

Seeing bats fly overhead is really, really cool. Sometimes I love where I live haha

My little brother does that all the time.
He is so cute. And we say goodnight prayers but I have to say everything perfectly how he wants me to or he gets annoyed at me.
He is so cute and amazing.


Also I’ve got a few things to add here:

When you are surrounded by 1000s of christians all singing passionately to worship songs. That feeling can’t be beat.

#australiaforjesus


Also when you volunteer to help out with too much at school (to do with the presentation night) and are stressing out about it all then a friend takes a day to come in to help you out.


EDIT: I got another one and didn’t want to double post.
But hanging out with drunk schoolies is the best thing ever. Even though I am here to help (and should be on schoolies) volunteering for red frogs has been absolutely amazing so far.
Having all these conversations with schoolies goers is making my week worth it.
I am staying up till at least 3am every morning and are exhausted af but it is actually so much fun hanging out with schoolies and helping them out when I can.

My work has a whole lot of posters and information and stuff up at the moment about mental health - at the moment they’ve got the posters up with Christmas sayings with small writing in between the lines altering it to a negative expression along with contact numbers for helplines etc and it’s really great that they’re being so openly supportive about mental health issues especially given this time of year is really stressful for high school and uni students aka the majority of people who work here

Got my robotic ATAR Notes birthday message today...

Cheesy.

Ignore what it says at the bottom; each and every one of those emails is individually crafted with care.

Happy birthday mate.

When a certain chain of libraries (Melbourne City) extends my borrow for an extra 2 weeks when I renewed my loans because it's holiday time

Borrowed books from Boroondara today. Same story - all the way through to Jan 8. I was afraid I'd have to renew them [with a couple of renews, a lot of what I borrow stays out for at least 8 weeks...]

Nice! I had to renew some items that had been out for the maximum three weeks, and they should be due back on the 26th, but they're now due on the 16th of Jan, which is grouse.
I often have my loans out for 3-4 renewals (depending on the library- my home one has a max 3 renewals/item but 4 week loans, Melbourne has a max of 4 renewals/item but 3 week loans, so rounds out to the same amount of time I guess aha)

Call me a child for this, but I love when I go play games that I struggled on when was a kid, and now easily destroy them. That'll teach you who's boss, 9 year old me.

Listening to someone play the piano. Idk why I love it so much, but I do

I for some reason enjoy listening to a really talented piano player do their thing.
I don’t know what it is but it’s relaxing to listen to really talented pianists.

Favourite music quote: "From the heart, may it return again to the heart!" (Beethoven)

Sums up music perfectly.

Can anyone explain how a deaf composer composes such hopeful and wonderful music, such as the 9th Symphony (Ode to Joy)?
