The holiday continues

Went to a pub where you could cook your own steak. Dad got to feel like a real
proper caveman here.

Beekeepers inn along the Mitchell Hwy, NSW                          
                                                                                                   

Bees on display!!

Heritage Winery Estate in Orange NSW. The sunny weather is still holding up for my week off.

Wine tasting, not a bad way to start of the day

And then beer tasting with dad

Ended the day the best way possible,
with thai food!

Yummmmm!!

Both agreed, was a good day 

 

 

Rest and relaxation

University exams are over for another semester, cue the binge eating and crying hysterically.

I haven't been back to my hometown of Orange, NSW Australia in about two years. So I think I'm due for a visit.

Family time with Dad

 

It was a new (and even slightly odd) feeling to come back and experience the old town as a tourist. I don't remember how to get to places and the places I do remember, aren't there anymore!

Orange Botanical Gardens. It was so peaceful.

Dad and I walked for hours just talking.

This was an old church at the top of a hill

Dad said I brought the blue sky with me.

We found an old fashioned sundial. The time was 2:42pm.

Such a peaceful relaxing start on the first day of the holidays

It's shaping up to be one of my favourite holidays in a long time, soooo relaxing.

What do you like to do to relax?

The life and times of...

Wardrobe somewhat organised ladies and gentlemen 

Managed to make decent seafood

Can any of you spot my study buddy?

 To end the day off with a smile

Public holiday pretties!

Public holiday :D time for casual walks around town, through parks and breakfast at 3pm. 

Doesn't matter what season, I love wedges and boyfriend jeans! Even better when they're actually your boyfriends jeans. 

Bad hair day?

Having a bad hair day guys? 

Well just remember, 

Beanies for the win!!! 

Have a great day lovelies!!!

It's been one of those days guys 

It's ending off on a good note though 

Sweeney Todd the Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd. His skin was pale and his eye was odd.

So what did you guys do today?? Have you guessed what I did?
Sweeny Todd, the demon barber of fleet street, the musical put on by NOVA theatre company. Performing tonight was my ever beautiful friend Miss Wicks. Also known as Becky O'Toole the best whore on Fleet Street. A must see for anyone who enjoys demon barbers, crazy ladies and pies. Their Sweeney may not be Johnny Depp but give him a go, it'll be worth it.
         It was a great night to catch up with friends, enjoy the warm company, not to mention the warm heated theatre.
As I live my life in the confines of my study, head bent over molecular biology textbooks and university lectures, it was a nice change to get out of the house. Mind you the guilt of missing a few hours to revise plasmid biology and mathematical statistics weighs heavy in my mind. But we all need to chill sometimes. The evening was spent with some of the best people in my life at this moment, and hopefully for many more moments to come.

Mr Ryan and I put our best face forward

         The ever dashing Ryan, always beautiful Claire and ever loving Tegan; all of them with the remarkable ability to remind me that every once in a while, you've got to remember to have fun, let loose, yell out of the car loudly, smile and wave at new people and wear your favorite heels without any inhibitions.  I didn't wear the favourite heels tonight but they were pretty close, my good old Tony Bianco's keeping me runway ready and on my toes all night. The musical was great, amateur theatre, no matter what level is a great thing to be apart of either on stage or in the audience, a great way to meet people, get out of the house and simply enjoy yourself.

SMILE! No, Tegan, I said smiiiile!

I think with the four of us though, the night was made even better, a night with good company can turn a flop into a runaway success. Tomorrow it will be back to the salt mines, back to days full of textbooks, words we cannot understand, theories we have to memorize and exams were are not prepared for. But tonight is was great company all round for the tale of Sweeney Todd.

I'd also like to think Miss Wicks liked the after show treatment.
 
  














So until next time my lovelies try and keep warm as winter crawls closer to us and rememeber to beeeeee happy.

Good night lovelies

Time for the sun

The city shines for us today. The trains run on time, the people are friendly, enough. 

It's been a long day. A day full of time. Time to catch up and time to keep up. The kind of day that sets out all shiny and ends up muddy and hard to see. 

   Keep up today chums, the lesson today will be pathogenic Bactria and how staining them to give you an answer, in fact gives you nothing and instead leaves you bruised and confused wondering what it was you were doing in the first place.

   You see bacteria, those tiny little microbes you never , but are always there have these crazy things called capsules. They keep the cuddly buggers safe from the outer elements of our inner body. They are made up of a whole heap of big words like polysaccharides, proteins, protein-carbohydrates and thins that you don't really have to worry about (I do but that's a whole different rant for another time). In fact you don't really need to know about any of this, so either shut up go browse tumbler or shut up and keep reading. 

   Bacteria capsules help bacteria invade our bodies an consequently attempt to rape our immune system however most of the time our good old immune system will simply boss it up and rape the bacteria right back but they give it a red hot go anyway. Capsules ultimately have numerous roles some is these being...

   Confused yet? Bored? About to switch channels?

  Well never mind, we won't drag you through an entire third year microbiology lab (mostly because I couldn't really be bothered). 

Simply leave it at, the day was long, very long, the weather was beautiful and for once the outfit was perfectly planned and executed. 

   Till next time lovelys, when there is something more riveting to talk about.
