Volleyball

Volleyball is what's up lately. April 12th and 13th we were in Manly for State Cup #2. Both the Division 1 team and the Honours team took home Silver. Here's some photos :)



It looks cool but I think I'm too slow to where I need to be.

Beautiful Div 1 ladies.
This past weekend we were in Newcastle for State Cup #3. Due to 2 of the honours middle blockers being unable to make it I played in all of the honours matches. This was quite nerve wracking for me as I'm the youngest player. But we were able to bring home silver anyway :) Division 1 ladies lost our bronze medal match but it was still a great weekend for both teams.


To be fair, the net was a good few inches short.

What Will I Do With My Life?

People often ask me what I want to do with a Mechanical Engineering degree. Honestly I don't have an answer for that. Part of why I chose Mech Eng is my love for pretty much everything it consists of and its versatility. One horrible recent discovery I've made is my love for clean energy. I'm currently taking a Renewable and Sustainable Energy Technologies class that I'm finding really interesting. This opens a new door to another possible industry that I could go in to once I finish my degree. One HUGE problem with this... I moved to the wrong country to be interested in renewable energy. How does Australia make it's money? This graph isn't from the most reliable source. I feel I should report that, but it does get the point across. Mining is HUGE here, for various different resources. As you can see Australia is quite full of nonrenewable resources, and making quite a bit of money from it. It's not really economical for Australia to get too hard...

Is this Heaven?

No it's Iowa. I still have never seen The Field of Dreams all the way through. I fell asleep the only time I've ever tried to watch it. Am I a horrible Iowan or what? Anywho... I believe we left off just before I babysat the Cleveland family. Saturday was Jess and Mitch's high school reunion, so I got the kids all day :)  Little Monkey  Cutest thing ever? Poor guy :( He had just put a bite in his mouth. I know it's dark and you can hardly see what's going on, but I rocked Ada to sleep. A precious moment for me that I had to document somehow Sunday I got everyone together for fishing :) A favourite pastime from my childhood. Don't laugh at the tiny fish. We're 'catch and release' type of people so it doesn't matter to us. Avery Jo probably caught the most. Proud moment. Teaching Alexa to hold the fish and take the hook out. Reeled it in all by himself :) Everyone caught many fish (one of the nice t...

I Believe I Can Fly

Two words... Hang. Gliding. 4 years ago my Grandma paid for everyone in my family to go skydiving if they wanted to. For those who didn't want to they still went and spent the day watching the others jump out of a plane. Well, when this happened I was only 16 and you have to be 18 to go skydiving, so for graduation my Grandma gave me money separate from the normal money/presents she gives us at that point that was specifically for skydiving since I missed out last time. New Zealand kind of has this thing for the extreme. I mean the very extreme. Bungee jumping and skydiving are a pretty normal things there. So when we woke up Tuesday morning and asked ourselves, "What do we want to do today?" Well, I had an answer for that. I used my skydiving money to go hang gliding (and lucky my Grandma was along so she got to watch). After calling in and booking my time we headed down to the shop. I hopped in a van with the people in charge and my parents were directed to the land...
