I'm sure you'll do great with your grades you sound like a very smart girl, as long as you get to do something you enjoy that's all that really matters anyway.
thats great that you got to travel around Europe my nan and pop did that a couple years ago and they really enjoyed it too. I hope some day I can travel, some of my friends travel a bit mainly to Asian country's though. I'm going to cape York next year some time so that should be good, rough it a little I've always wanted to go right up into Queensland and see the wildlife up there, I've worked with a lot of the animals up there like cassowaries and crocs but it's completely differnt seeing them in the wild.
Nah unfortunately the numbness is permanent I took medication to stop migraines when I was in about grade 6 and it cuased damadged to my nerves in my toes and fingers. I had to leave school in grade 8 becuase I couldn't keep up with the writing and I started distance education and my mum scribed for me and then in year 11 a teacher acussed me of cheating and I couldn't prove I wasn't so they weren't going to let me do year 12 so I droped out and started the course I'm doing now. It's weird becuase I can't write for anything but I'm a pretty well known drawer.
i used to love running when I was little me pop would be in the ute moving sheep and I'd be running with the dogs, haha.
Im not doing to great but I'll be ok, hope your alright.

Thanks startingnew! its been very welcoming. Hope you have had an enjoyable day so far
thanks nath, i had my last mid sem exam this morning for a few weeks, so I feel much more relaxed now.
Your trip sounds incredible! Ive never actually been to queensland before but have heard great things. And going out in the wild sounds amazing.
Sorry about the nerve damage and your struggles at school, that must have been incredibly difficult but atleast you still working hard and studying to get your dream job!

Hi cesca
I'm glad you got through your exam ok, I'm sure you did very well.
yeah I'm really looking forward to my trip next year it will be my first major trip with out my family so I really excited, I was going to go with my best friend this year but there wasn't enough room in their car for me unfortunately. But I'm going with another friend next year and I'm taking my own ute so that should be fun lots of off-roading, I've just got to find the money to get me ute ready that's all. I've only ever been as far as the Gold Coast before and that was great so I hope the trip goes well.
Oh thats ok nothing anyone could of done about it, I survived it all that's what matters, hey. Yeah I'm determined that I'll start that business soon.
thinking of you
Nath

thats so good you have found things that you love and help!
what type of paintings do you usually do? my aunty is an artist and an art therapist so ive grown up painting a lot with her (although she still lives in england so when i moved with my family to australia, i didnt paint or draw anywhere near as much)
thanks! i will have a look over there now

i dont normally paint. i mostly do alot of drawings. i mostly draw nature associated things and nature is a great source for me. i find it calming as well and when things get really tough i gnerally try to reconnect with nature and go for a walk in the botanical gardens esp when all the flowers are in bloom.
i painted a beach scene today and also a tulip flower
what sort of things do you/did you like to draw/paint?
