A couple of nights ago my mother made chilli con carne, but she added sweet chilli to it, and we had it last night too. Mum was saying yesterday afternoon that she was looking forward to eating the chilli con carne and I told her that it was better than the original.

As I was going to the library I was aware that there was a busker in the street, but he wasn’t there when I went past though I heard him singing and playing a guitar while I was going through the children’s books but I don’t recall what he sang. And after doing shelf 81 to 86 I then went to try to find shelf 76 and ended up asking and shelf 76 is in the young adult section. It was also a good thing that I brought my own lunch today, as the people at Luke’s Place had a late lunch and I have to be ready to leave by twelve thirty to do the volunteer work and I was amazed at how many books I went through today.

A couple of weeks ago I asked mum to get me a cheap watch as she was going to Riverlink that day, and when she got back my mum told me that all they had that was cheap were watches for kids. So she got a battery for a watch that she had and gave it to me, and the reason why I wanted a watch is so I know what time it is when I sign myself in and out when I do my volunteer work at the library.

And I also been wearing  the watch when I go on my short walks around the yard, and today it took me twenty minutes to do ten laps, and I also been sitting out in the sun for ten minutes too.

I just recieved the ALARA newsletter a couple of days ago, and saw that I had a verse poem in. Mum thinks it is the best poem I ever written so far and the poem’s title is called Making Friends.

                                               Making Friends

  Friendships should never be forced, as that will be the very end of 
  being friends. Friendship is mutual, and should never be brutal, and
  is built upon respect as what do you expect?
 
  Friendships takes time so let it climb, as no one enjoys the company of
  bullies, but lets all live our lives fully.

  People who want to have friends should care about how others feel, as
  knowing that there are certain persons that can appreciate that appeal.
  But what if a person doesn’t want to be a friend? Well that’s okay, as
  friends are accepting, but should never be depressing.
