Photography session i did earlier today. This is my first time in going out for the sole purpose of photo taking. These pictures were taken in a nature reserve which was rather brown with a patch of green plant life in the centre towards the peak. The majority of the rocks were broken up into pieces, leaving the ground rather rocky. In other words, it was a rockin' hill. The photos were pretty average as I'm pretty average at taking photos. Anyway, here is the first lot of photos from my first photography session.

Home visits

I was woken up from a sleepover at about 9:30AM by a call from my mother saying the nurse was at our house.  She was on her way to pick me up and bring me home. When i arrived the nurse was waiting in a red car at the bottom of our driveway. I quickly ran up to the toilet to pee and then came back to my room. The nurse appeared to be in her low 20s, and Caucasian. She removed the bandages on my elbow and torso. She also took pictures and measured the wounds to add to my file. She used an antiseptic dressing, of orange colour. When applied it stung for a good half hour until i decided to take a couple panadols. I then decided to sleep it off and slept for a few hours. When I'm up for it I'm going driving later also.

This picture was taken at the hospital the day prior.

Hospital Trip

So today i went back to the hospital to get my bandages redone. The wait was about 40 minutes,  much longer than the 5 minutes yesterday. This time a different nurse examined the wounds and assessed the situation. She removed the bandage from the large graze on my torso. She then questioned whether I'd showered in it as it was rather full of liquids. I told her I hadn't, so it was just leaking a lot of random fluids it seems.  She also had a look at my elbow before proceeding to rebandage them both,  beginning with the torso graze. She used a dressing which has to be removed and replaced within 24 hours,  so i have to go back tomorrow.  After assessing my elbow and noticing the large amount of brusing around my bone,  she ordered an xray for it. So tomorrow I'm required to go to the hospital for the third consecutive day for and xray and for my wounds to be done up with a new dressing. I hope my elbow isn't fractured,  as that would be rather inconvenient. I shall report back tomorrow on the news.

Longboarding accident

So i stacked today while long boarding, i was probably going around 50-60kmh down a hill. My elbow must have landed on a rock or the like and put about a half centimetre hole in my elbow. I also ended up with a few grazes. I went to hospital about 4 hours after and got it patched up. If my elbow still hurts in a few days, it could be fractured and I would need to go back for an x-ray.

Greatest cover ever?!

Bastille's cover of We Can't Stop - Miley Cyrus

In this cover, Bastille starts with an Eminem like introduction from his song Lose Yourself, He then begins to start singingWe Can't Stop. He also adds the chorus of the song Achey Breaky Heart by her father Billy Ray Cyrus. This is probably one of the best covers of a song I've heard. 10/10

This is the original without lyrics.  Nicely filmed live at BBC live lounge.

Serenity

Those times when you could just lie down, so you do...

Board: Osprey Pegasus

I ordered this board online from the Australian  website http://www.oo.com.au/, it was on sale from $99.95 down to $39.95, the boards RRP is $129.99 normally. Shipping was about $10 as well. It took a bit less than 2 weeks to arrive, and was at my doorstep when I arrived back from Melbourne. The site as mmixed reviews but I'd say it's good, especially for the price i got my board for.
