Among other things this week.
Today we went to some yards and moved some cows, yep. It’s nearly time for ‘em to come home (here..) and today we had to Vaccinating them, I can’t remember what against.
What I did? I jumped in the yards (eventually…) and tried to get in with them, moving them down the lines etc. I should of taken my camera phone and taken photos. You know cows piss / poo a lot?
So I yelled my lungs out. Trying to get ‘em to move up. It’s not easy, spesh when you’re new to it, and have no idea what you’re doing. So I slapped the cows on the backside to try move ‘em up. Doesn’t really work because my slap is too soft. I hate “not wanting to hurt an animal”. Continued reading >
So it was the 8/07/09, and I sat my restricted license. I failed. Here are the events leading up to this day. And the reasons why I failed.
- I drove into town, doing fine, great parallel parking etc, great turning corners, going around the round-a-bouts, everything.
- I had to hire a car because I had recently dented mine, which apparently made it “Un-unwarrantable”. So the test man most likely wouldn’t accept it. So I hired a car.
- I had a “test” test in that hired car, with a driving instructor. The cars gears where very close together, where as mine are far apart, so that took some getting used to. However, the driving instructor said I would pass for sure. Just do what he said.
- What he said contradicted what I had been taught already, but he said he knew what he was doing. One of them was “You don’t have to move your whole head to look out the mirrors, just move your eyes”. Which I usually just move my eyes, but my mum told me for the test man I have to move my head. My mum was correct.
The test; Continued reading >
No, not Yay for the weekend. I found out last weekend that I have all the weekends off till the 22nd of July when calving starts. And without a car I can’t really do much but sit around. Although lets be honest, the past 2 weekends my boyfriends mom/dad have come to fetch me and let me stay with them. I haven’t asked or anything, but I am feeling a little bad.
So anyone read last weeks post? About my silly fine? Well I paid it off today online. It cost $412 all up. $12 “convenance fee” or some shit. Why though? Because I can’t get to a post shop because I have no car? Because I can’t get to a bank because I don’t have a car? That’s bullshit. I may call and complain.
On another note, if you know me, you know I like to change my mind a lot. So here is my new thing; This website is just my full out personal blog. Full stop. No changing my mind. Lol. Continued reading >
