  1. I honestly couldn't give you a straight answer because truth is, I don't WANT to believe in them.
  2. Wow! It's beautiful! The nebula type thing in the top left hand corner is impressive!I absolutely love graphics with space etc. They are always so magical :PGreat work!!
  3. I don't think I'll ever forget my first love, and although they were probably the best memories of my life, the memories of my relationship with him are slowly disintegrating. I only have a few memories of him and I together, and most of them are from out break up. My first love occurred during year eight of middle school. Yes, I know what you'll probably be saying; 'thirteen year olds don't know love,'. But when you experience love, you know it. And I definately knew it. He made me feel wanted and needed. That's probably what made me fall so deeply in love with him. Unfortunately, his love for me died after almost a year of our relationship, broke up with me, and five days later was in a relationship with a older girl who was known... for.. I'll simply say having multiple relationships with multiple partners.
  4. Haha very nice quotes. I quiet like these four
  5. Haha, very entertaining cat photos!I love the photo of the cat in the band, hilarious! :PGood job on finding them!
  6. I quiet like them! And I love the effect you have used to wash out or fade some of the colouring. It gives the photo a more classic look and, as someone has pointed out, make it look like an old photo. The last is unusual- but nice
  7. I haven't.. or at least not intentionally. Once I was sitting outside the secondary block for recess with my friends. It was beautiful and sunny so we were just laying against the warm stone wall - chilling out. We hadn't realised the bell had rung and turned up to class about half an hour late. That's honestly the wost I've ever done! That was when I was in a country school, so there were only about seventeen people in my calss... and you actually got noticed if you were missing from class then questioned about your whereabouts. Haha.
  8. No, I don't hate it. In fact I pretty much love it. I love the feeling I get when I accomplish something and I'm recognised for my strengths. Sometimes I don't enjoy it, I'll admit. When I have an English Essay due, a few Global Issues Assignments and Maths to complete it would be so much easier for me to just give up and not go to school. But then what would I do? Probably sit at home on the computer all the time. School gets me off the computer and out somewhere I can enjoy myself. School is aslo a great space to develop friendships. Where else would you have six hours to spend with your friends? When ever I feel like giving up on school because it feels to hard for me, or I feel to pressured to accomplish high grades I always remind myself what school is really for. It's to train us up so that when we leave school we can contribute to our community, our national and perhaps our globe. So if you're failing or struggling in school, really, it just means you're not ready to go out into the world and that you just need a bit more training. A little off topic I know, but then again it's my thoughts on school.
  9. Aahh! That's one of the cutest things I've ever seen! I adore kids! Actually.. I adore anything that's a baby

    Twilight?

    I've read them all, and I've got to say they are VERY impressive. I'd highly recommend you read them. There are four novels, although I should probably say bricks because they are huge , in the Twilight Saga; Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn. They all follow the life of a girl named Bella (Isabella Swan) as she moves to a small town in Washington called Forks where she lives with her father. She meets Edward Cullen, a gorgeous and mysterious boy at her high school and basically the books erupt from there. Stephani Meyer's writing style is highly captivating and even the most simple things are made highly enjoyable. Everything about the Twilight series makes it more realistic, especially the way in which Stephani has linked events in the novels to real life events. Seriously, if you want to read the most amazing book ever- Read Twilight.
  11. Awesome! I'll take a look through them, download and have a look at how they are set out for practise with setting out my own (Newbie ) Thanks for posting!!!
  12. Wow! That is really interesting! I never thought that much about the precise positioning of things on a web page, such as search engines/navigation etc. Thanks for posting!
  13. I've been making and editing graphics for about a year and a half now. This is one of the things I have made. The Copyright found on it 'Depplain Valley Graphix' is my account name on the website I use them on. It is there so people don't steal it B)Feel free to comment and give constructive criticism
  14. Spy on your neighbors? Now that's what I'd call fun! I can not wait for the Sims 3!!

    Sims 3

    Roaming anywhere you want your Sims to go? That's exactly what I'd love to see!When I got the Sims 2 I had no idea how Maxis could improve the game anymore... but I suppose there's always ways to improve.For anyone that doesn't have the Sims, I 100% recommend you go out and purchase one!
  16. Hello, I'm from South Australia, born here, lived here my whole life- been to every state and territory except Tasmania. Where abouts are you from? If you don't mind me asking. Though I <u>personally</u> wouldn't call Australia the country of meat pies... but that's only because I'm biased seeing as I'm vegetarian. We get quiet a lot of warm weather here, though there's generally a healthy amount of rain during the winter- though not too much.
  17. Chicken Eggs are exactly that- eggs. Basically they are the chickens period. Without the males sperm to fertilize the egg no chick will develope within the egg, however, just like us humans the egg will still leave the chickens body through menstrual cycle.
  18. I've just finished reading the Twilight Saga. I've pretty much been reading some short novels, Forget Me Not, Walking Naked. At the start of the month, or there abouts, I was reading a bit of Dan Brown; Digital Fortress. That was very interesting.
  19. 80g of butter is about 2.8 oz Custard Powers like a cornflour starchy thing. Yes, Vanilla Essence is the same as Vanilla Extract. As for the temperature, don't ask me, I am from Australia so I have no idea how to convert to Farenheight- because I never use it. Try searching for a convertor on Google.
  20. I'd definitely agree with this. Reviews of brands are one of the most important things to look at <b>primarily</b>. I've bought a few products from major brands that have relatively good reviews and the products work very well. I also look at how common the brand name is, although it's not something you should really base your options on. Popular brands can sometimes be better quality or operate better. Then I'd also think about what you actually want the camera for. If for example you're going on a hiking trip and you need a digital camera to take with you may need one with longer battery life and one that is light weight. After that I would look at photo quality, but that's me personally, because I like to have good quality pictures. But that really depends on what you're after. The shop assistance's should left you get them out of the cabinet and provided they ave batteries in them you should be able to have a fiddle/play around with it. Hope you get a camera you like!
  21. That cake looks amazing, but it's kinda tripping my eyes.. Does it taste as good as it looks?
  22. Its been a while since I made Jam Drops, but I was flicking throug the recipe book and I saw them and I thought I'd share them with you! In my opinion they are best with apricot jam- especially home made! My grandmother makes a delicious apricot jam that works perfectly with the Jam Drops! Let's get started then!You'll need:80g unsalted butter1/3 cup caster sugar2 tablespoons milk1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence1 cup self-raising flou1/3 cup custard powderAnd ofcourse your jams!1. Preheat the oven to moderate 180 degrees celcius and line two reasonably large cooking trays with baking paper.2. Using an electric beater, beat the butter and sugar in a small mixing bowl until the mixture is light and creamy.3. Add the milk and the essence and beat again until well mixed.4. Sift the flour and custard powder into the butter mixture and mix to form a soft dough.5. Roll two teaspoons (or larger depending on how big you want your biscuits to end up. I usually go small because they are easier to eat) of the mixture into a ball and place it on the tray. Repeat until you have used all the mixture.6. Press a hollow into each ball using the end of a wooden spoon and fill each hole with a quarter of a teaspoon of jam.7. Bake the biscuits for 15 minutes and use an egg slice to transfer them onto a wire rack, once cooked, to cool.And there you have it! Remember that if you have used more than the two teaspoons advised to make the biscuits you'll probably need to make the hollow you put into the biscut bigger than the end of the wooden spoon- unless you don't mind the edges being quiet dry in taste.Enjoy!
  23. I love cheese harrison858, so I always put plenty in. But I'm sure it wouldn't be too cheesey.. Its my pleasure! Im thrilled to hear that it worked out for you!
  24. My Budgie Problem I've owned my budgies for about eight months now and I've noticed that one female budgie, named Perry, has a swollen cere. It looks like its turning a reddish brown colour. I do not know what has caused it. I've been reseaching it on the internet trying to find out what it is but so far I've been unsuccessful. Are there any experienced budgie owners/breeders that know what may be the causes? What is the cure? Is it some sort of blood mite or parasite? Here are some pictures of Perry that may help you out, I'm sorry I couldn't get any close up images but the budgies aren't tame enough for me to catch them. (I've got more images that I'd like to show but Photobucket is refusing to upload them... for some weird reason) This picture was taken yesterday: The cere on one of my other female budgies, named Dominos, is begining to sort of break down inwards or sort of deflate. I'm not sure if she might have accidentally knocked it against somthing or if its a type of mite, or maybe she's hurt herself when she was bickering with one of the other budgies. This picture was taken yesterday (Dominos is the budg left): Any of the advice and help you can give me is greatly appreciated. Please help me!
