I’m an adult!

Today I turned 18. I can now vote for my country (or rather I have to), die for my country and drink myself stupid LEGALLY! Oh and drive. Kinda silly rules, introducing legal alcohol and cars at the same age.

Anyhoo I woke up late this morning, treating myself to a sleepin, and when I did emerge downstairs my family pounced on me and wished me all the best. They also gave me pressies then, which is very unlike what our family normally does. It’s always been an evening thing for presents and the like, excepting chrissie. Anyhoo I opened the two up. The first was unexciting; a seemingly link cable between firewire and usb. Although this intrigued me, I knew firewire was only used for high speed stuff like dv cams, so I moved to the bigger box eagerly. This is where it trips out.

Brookey’s birthday is also on June the 19th, and last week she recieved, to my envy an iPod mp3 player, and yet when I opened this box, guess what was inside!!!!

Here it is, playing good ol’ Harper:

Anyway as you can see, muchos happy. Thanks for all the birthday wishes, they mean a lot, especially when they come from Newcastlians, are in the mail form and include lollies!
