Strike Bowling

Hey guys,
Today my dad, my brother and I went to Strike Bowling in the Mandarin center. First we went to Grill'd to get burgers and they were yum! Before our session started we played some arcade games first which was kind of fun. Plus I think it was actually my first time playing arcade games :) Maybe not, maybe just my first time in a long time.

In the end my dad won (no surprise there) and I came last. Hamish beat me which was annoying but he had the barriers up so he had an advantage. Oh well. I got two strikes though (not in a row) so I was pretty happy about that.
How about you? Have you been bowling recently? Or laser tag? I hope none of you were beaten by your younger siblings as that never feels so great. Then again I can't stand the the grumpy mood when they don't win. Now I really have to get a move on on all of my assignments (even though I'm probably just going to procrastinate after this) so that's all for now.

Nature Photography

After three days of constant blogging and staring at my computer screen, I finally got out of the house today and walked for an hour :O (amazing I know). So I took my camera along with me and got some naturely shots. I've edited some of them (not very well though) and some I've put intense effects on.

 On pretty much every plant I saw of these, there were all green leaves and just one single orange leaf.

 Mangrove, after mangrove, after mangrove...

 Morning Glory... Such a pretty coloured flower for a destructive weed...

 Some black & white photos...

So yeah there you have it. If you have any tips on editing photos or photography in general, or if you can recommend any good programs or apps for editing photos, let me know in the comments.


Also I thought I'd just throw this in randomly as well,
After our walk we popped into Harris Farms and got these. The packet says Dried Mango but it's actually candied. So it's very sweet. You can either eat like that or you can chop it up into little pieces and make a trail mix with it. The bitterness of the nuts will offset the sweetness of the mango. So if you see these in your local grocery store or fresh food market, pick up a packet of Dried Mango Slices or maybe Dried Paw Paw Slices and mix them up with some sultanas and mixed nuts. Perfect for snaking on!

Mother's Day

Yesterday was Mother's Day. I made a card for my mum in the morning and then we went to my grandma's place for Mother's Day lunch.

Here are some pictures from Instagram:

Beautiful blue skies for Mother's day
