Did you know that there are some chocolate cookies that taste like hardened chocolate ice cream, they are so good? I found out yesterday, and it is a delicious taste, thought to be honest I think I would prefer the ice cream.

My older brother just told us about a man who mailed himself to his girlfriend, and was almost killed when it was lost in the post. That would be so funny! Probably terrifying as well, and definitely stupid, but without a doubt it would be funny. If not at the time, then afterwards.

July 27

Today is my mother's birthday! In honour of the occasion, she and my sister are trying to make ice cream. For a cold dish, it sure seems to need a lot of cooking. We probably won't get to eat it until tomorrow, or at the very soonest tonight, but if it's good, it will be worth it.

My little brother is doing maths problems with matchsticks. The kind of problems where you make a shape, then have to take away certain matchsticks to make a new shape. At the moment, he's doing it with pens, because we don't really have matchsticks. It seems to be working anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter what you use. Also, having something bigger to use seems to make it easier, though I have to admit that the differing colours are a bit distracting.

The coolest thing EVER!

This is the coolest thing ever! Today, my dad bought my older brother and I a new iPad 3 each! I'm writing on it right now. Mine is white, and it is so cool. I named it Charlie. My dad has all sorts of cool apps that I put on Charlie. It will probably take me a while to find out all the things they can do. It will probably also take me a while to get used to the keyboard.

My sister is rude enough to be reading this over my shoulder as I am writing. She's sitting beside me on the lounge, eating ice cream and jelly, and having difficulty to stop talking.

Awesome quote from my little brother. "She's not allowed to have emotions, she's too young." He's talking about me, and I'm older than he is!
