Lazy Mondays


I just finished reading the Sunday Age, yes a monday. How delayed haha But yday i attended a scout ceremony, where my cousin and two friends recieved a very prestigious award called 'Queens award' for scouts. The ceremony went tremendously well - even with the limited budget!
The hall was filled by three and the ceremony commenced with the Australian National anthem followed by the Vietanmese anthem. Everyone was on the toes eagre to see the recipents of the award and to hear their speeches. Well.. I was anyway. :) All their hard work just flashed by their eyes, with years and years of commitment to scouts, and to finally receieve this award would, i imagine very rewarding! I'm very proud of my cousin and my friends :) If only i had drive and dedication back then, I too could have been standing there recieving one.
The ceremony was very well thought out, I thought it would be a long and dragging one, i was so wrong! It went by so fast ~ I cant wait to join scouts once i reach 18 to be able to join Rovers. I think i finally figured the order, and it goes something like this - cubs, joeys, (one missing), venturers. Mmm i thought i was going well until that blankness!

On the Sundays Age, there were many stories that filled up a page. Stories that contain the good and bad news, humour, pictures and news from all over the world. The only thing i don't touch on is the sports sect. But heres a fact, the age was the first paper to publish the sports sect and photos in their paper. Quite a vision the creater was, 20 years in the making, and it still holds the qualities and values today. Such achievement, i too hope that i could achieve something with such legacy in my lifetime.

To end this with a cheerful note :) - I found the cutest notebooks ever!
