My Father's pride and joy is his garden. He owns many many many fruit trees. One of my favourite's is the orange tree. I was craving orange juice when i remembered we own an orange tree (two actually). So i went outside, walked down the small lane way outlined with pretty little daisy's and picked a few oranges. I had never seen so many on one tree and all so beautiful and ripe. I wonder what life would be like if all i had to do was pick oranges.... I imagine it would be so much more simple. I think life would be bliss if i could walk through columns and columns of orange tree's every single day, writing and singing and pondering. Watching the scenery around me and not having a care in the world. I feel a song coming on.
Peace and love.

I am so thankful.

When you smile I smile.
When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that you are there - in everything I am, in everything I’ve ever done - and looking back, I know that I should have told you how much you’ve always meant to me.

Bad everything be gone.
Things to do when your head wants to explode or you want to cry:
- Write a song
- Talk to Jesus
- Read the written word and journal
- Listen to Justin Beiber and maybe pay him out (If your feeling nice)
- Get a pop top and squirt water at something/someone
- Listen to some cool tunes
- Think back to the old days
- Go for a walk in a green place
- Make a pointless video about pointless things
- Observe the world
- Do some homework that maybe needs to be done one day
- Vent like an air conditioner..... Maybe to a ranga or you friend dizzals (??)
- Crack a joke about your face/ your cousins face
- Get your best to buy you a coke instead of petrol money (That is never asked for anyway because if your going to the place they are anyway.... there's no point and if you do it's called a RIP OFF)
- Chase your dog
- Talk to someone who can actually understand you when you don't make sense. It's ok not to make sense
- Use your sisters perfume and think of how much you really love her
- Watch a scary movie by yourself or a fun musical that you can dance and sing to
- Force yourself to laugh for no reason
- Paint your toenails various colour's just cause you can and then go walking in winter... in thongs to show your good work
These are just some of the things that help my head to stay on my shoulders when I'm not feeling Becc-Like. Happiness comes from many things, i think you can even find happiness in everything if you let yourself. Like when someone is struggling or sick it makes you feel sad, but then they crack the slightest cheesy grin and you can't help but smile or they let out the loudest burp and yell "I WIN" you just want to hug them.... (well i do ha).It's ok to be upset but sometimes it's easier to be happy. If you'll excuse me now. I am going to walk around my backyard. My Father is proud of all the work he has put into it. So i might go and appreciate it.
Your love it's so pretty.
Sometimes your love it's so pretty
I just want to sink in
Sometimes your heart it's so pretty
I just want to live there
Valium by Lisa Mitchell is breathtaking. She says exactly what i am thinking.

Today will always be today.
Today was different and i will never forget it, it was a day that was very unfamiliar and scary. Something happened that made me realize some things. I figured something out.... that's that it is just life. It can be put as simply as that. All these trials and tribulations..... It's just life, it's never ending and i guess one of our jobs is to test ourselves, to be strong, to go out of our way for the needs of others or to stand up and say something when we are never heard but want to be. Today reminded me that I believe in something greater than this world itself, greater than any problem or situation that could ever face me, i believe in passion and never giving up (unless its year 12 chemistry :P). My dear Father showed me that today, all of these beliefs are worth it and all are real. He was pushed to his limits, and so was i. Wasting time gets you absolutely no where, like... NO WHERE at all, apart from back where you started. If there is one thing i will remember from this day.... It is simple. Just love.
