Goose Brain
I finally have a picture of my brain! I think I look like a bit of a goose, but it’s still cool to look at. The whole experience of getting a brain scan was exciting too - well mostly. I’ve never been admitted to hospital before, so it was cool to be able to have an MRI without actually being ill. I went to the Centre for Advanced MRI in Grafton and met the researchers who were both...

Fishing Frenzy
Today my Dad and I went out fishing on our boat. I haven’t been fishing in such a long time so I was really excited. The weather was nice because the sun was out, but not to kill us. The waves were also a little rough which makes the boat ride more exciting. It’s fun when your stomach drops as the boat smashes over the waves.
We launched the boat at Westhaven and headed out towards...

Dam Christmas
This year my family didn’t really celebrate Christmas. There’s only four of us in Auckland anyway, so it’s a bit hard to have a big family gathering. Plus, we’re poor and lazy. I’m not sure why, but I haven’t really cared about celebrations all year. Usually I’ll know exactly what I want for my birthday and Christmas, but this year I didn’t ask my...

Go Golfing
I’v never been a fan of golf, but minigolf is a whole different game. You don’t have to do any of those outrageous swings. I vaguely remember playing minigolf once before, but I can’t be sure… So I’m just going to say that on Saturday I went to play minigolf for the first time. Neil and I went to Lilliputt Minigolf on the waterfront. It wasn’t too busy and the...

I'm So Tyred
Today I put new tyres on my bicycle. On Monday I patched a hole in the inner tube with a repair kit and finally my tyres were ready to be pumped. My Dad bought me a pump today which was very kind.
I had to go under the house to my dad’s tool room to get a spanner. I hardly ever go down there and forgot that part of my house exists. It was fun riding my bike… around in circles on the...

Are You Building A Nest?
Today I started to dismantle my room because I decided that I had far too much stuff and it was boring me. Originally I was just going to clean it, but I’ve talked to my Dad and now we’re going to repaint it too! I’m quite excited to have a nice newly done room. It might take a while but I enjoy painting, cleaning and decorating (well, for now). I started by going through all my...
