It has been a week! Still alive!

I'm just kidding, it's actually been really good, getting me out there doing things I would not be doing otherwise. Today was one of those real productive days, and it started out with a shower, which I don't think I have done in a very long time. Morning showers hit different.

My brother and I went for a motorbike ride again, of which I slowly got more used to starting up the bike and getting those gear changes smoother. I now have a new pet peeve for kickback too. It's the most painful thing when you put all your force into pushing down to have the kick starter stop halfway and push back up. Don't mind the horse riding helmet, we only have one motorbike one, and we'd rather have that with the bike that will do back flips if you rev too hard. Peak safety right here.

I have a DVC project (Design and Visual Communication) for school, where I have to make this adornment promoting ocean waste awareness, and for one of my models I bought this pack of flat marble things, but only needed three out of about 50, so I decided to make this luminary jar for whatever miscellaneous stuff is floating around on my desk, so I was pretty happy with how that turned out. I've missed all the creative juices I channeled as a younger kid, they're all coming back to me now!

Speaking of throw backs, I made these amazing things today called Oreo Balls, which are pretty much cream cheese, crushed Oreos and melted chocolate. In year 8, some mates and I made these for a cooking competition, of which got us into the higher rounds!

I cleaned the RX8 too, as it was gathering quite a lot of dust sitting in the shed. However all it made me want to do was go for a spontaneous drive away from home for a bit. Hopefully only three more weeks to go!

My youth group has also started up a small group system on Zoom, so we had our first session of that today, so we'll see how that play out in the next few weeks.

Finally, in the evening I took Cruise out for a ride, and for the first half he was super good, but as soon as I dropped the whip he started being a little grumpy, so I might set up a corral and do some liberty at some point in the next few days. Possibly some free jumping too.
