A + A // Tall brother + Sudden shock + 2015

Must be time for another awkward and awesome post, don't you think?

Awkward:
- Straining my voice. I couldn't really talk above a croak. Not the nicest feeling, especially coupled with the most painfully sore throat I've ever had in my life!
- When you are lying in bed one night, trying hard to go to sleep when all of a sudden you get shocked out of your skin when something that is hanging up beside your bed suddenly falls onto the floor very loudly and very quickly. Gave me such a fright.
- Heading out the door when Ben was coming in the door. Passing him and suddenly realizing that in the not-too-distant future he's going to be taller than me.
- Tripping over nothing whatsoever.
- Losing in cards. Continuously. Then when you finally get good enough cards to actually win, the very next round your cards are terrible again and you lose. And the person next to you rubs it in. :(

Awesome:
- That our pool has at last had it's cover taken off and we can use it! Yay for swimming again!
- Warmer weather
- Watching little siblings opening Christmas presents. A wonderful thing to behold. :P
- Long chatty (handwritten) letters
- Strawberries!!!!
- Finding out something that you have been wanting to know for absolutely months. For a naturally curious person, it is hard indeed. Patience is not one of my virtues unfortunately!
- Receiving entries into the poem competition. Seriously though guys, I need more than one!! Enter, one and all!
- 2015. I wrote a (very) short poem to celebrate the new year that I thought you might enjoy. *clears throat dramatically*
Twenty fourteen has been very dear
But twenty fifteen rings bright and clear
It's going to be a wonderful year!

- The fact that God will never fail. I've written a post on the topic of 'courage' and 'God in control' and am going to post it sometime soonish. So that's something you can look forward to. (Because I just know you really look forward to my posts.)
- The fact that I could think of heaps of Awesomes and like virtually no Awkwards. That is how it should be.


Do you like strawberries? 
Have you entered my competition yet? 
When was the last time you had a sudden shock?

  1. Looking forward to those posts. :D
    I plan to do a poem - if I can think of a good subject as well as 2015 for it.
    I love strawberries.
    The last time I probably had a sudden shock was when my sister jumped out at me from behind the door the other day, although that didn't give me much of a fright. :P

    1. You should do a poem. You definitely should. If everyone who reads this does a poem, I'll have lots of entries, won't I???
      Haha. Little siblings trying to scare you is the funniest thing ever. Especially when they don't succeed. :)
