The Return of the Parentals

My darling parentals went away to Naracoorte for two days. In true fashion of my father, these two days turned into four. After the second day they called and said they would be home tomorrow, we stopped believing them.

During their time away I found time to do so many things. The two most important ones are that I found out that I got into University. This year I will be beginning a Bachelor of Visual Arts (specialisation) at the coolest University ever invented! To top off how exciting this is for me, I'll be doing it with my sister and a very good friend of mine. I knew that they would both get in, but I honestly thought that I wouldn't.

The next important thing I did while my parentals were away, was learn how to wiggle my ears! It took me two days of constant concentration to be able to remember which muscles to move. Believe it or not, I kept getting my ear muscles and my eyebrow muscles mixed up. Molly thinks wiggling your ears is gross, but I think it's a big achievement!

Of course while my parentals were gone, I did look after their children, but that wasn't anything particularly special. However I do know for sure that I can cook, clean, keep track of 6 other people, make sure the doors and windows are locked at night and I can scare away bad dreams. What else is there to know?
