Floods

Right, so I’m wondering whether I can actually stick to this and write almost every day. But knowing me, I’ll slack off after a month or so.

The Swimming Carnival was meant to be today, but it was raining so it was cancelled… yet again. So we have a normal Monday Week B. Joy. At least I had Lydia this morning to keep me company. Now that my sister has moved to Canberra and Dad works every week day (leaving at 6am), I’ve been getting ready by myself.

It’s kind of lonely. So usually I get my cat in so I can hear him meow.
Pathetic?
That or I put on catchy music to wake me up.

Today started out boring. Got told to put my hair up twice by Mrs. Harris. But man, you should have seen the rain!
It was torrential.
People started to go home at recess. The courtyard was flooded, the oval was flooded, near the girl’s bathroom was flooded. Puddles everywhere. The Resource Centre was packed with people sheltering from the rain.

During English we got word that Bingi and Tuross has been flooded and inaccessible. Which meant a few people could not make it home. Also everything further south the Moruya was closed off. This included Narooma, Dalmenyy, Bingi, Tuross, Bodalla, and Tilba.

It was eventful but I was wondering if the two ways home would flood and I’d be stranded in Broulee or somewhere in the Bay for the night.

There was one positive thing. That was that school is now cancelled and will not be on tomorrow. I hope it’s a cold day that I can lay in bed with my laptop and work on homework, watch movies and read (:

Fair keen actually. This has never happened before. You hear about Snow Days in America and Canada and England etc, but now that we have one (but rain day)… it’s exciting!

Oh oh, today I went into the Commonwealth Bank to activate a new bank account and connect my old one to it.
My reason being? Well… I want a plastic card for my wallet (:

I’m contemplating either working on my hospitality assignment or watching a DVD. Or I could multitask and do both?

PS: this blog is meant to document my last year at school, thus being titled TwentyTen. At the end of the year I plan to go back through and read all of my posts.
PPS: I’ll include posts of the flooded areas of Moruya that I took this afternoon. I cannot be bothered to upload them from my phone at the present moment.
