Hi everyone! Random facts (I know I haven’t posted these in a while): 1) Apples, peaches, and raspberries are all members of the rose family. 2) Hershey’s chocolate syrup, DumDums, and Oreos are all vegan. 3) Kangaroos keep growing until they die.

Hi guys! I'm back after a bit. The reason why I've been so busy is because I'm starting High School! So I've been preparing a lot for it, buying school supplies, a bunch of books I'll need to do my notes it and stuff like that. Totally different from Primary School! (I'm in Year 7 now). So I might not be able to go on here THAT much but I'll try to maybe once a week 😊 If you're in Australia you'd understand because we only have Primary School and High School, so I've never been through the middle school hardships some of you guys are going through right now lol 😅 Besides studying though, I study a lot. How's your day going :) Tell me in the reply section!

Hello! I'm so glad you're back! Gosh, High School sounds rough but I'm sure you'll do great! My day is going pretty good, thanks! It's -37 where I live so I spent the whole day watching movies with my sis. Have a great day/afternoon/night!!

Wow that is so interesting. America is so different than Australia! One of my friends loves Australia, and I'm going to tell her I know an Australian! She'll be so curious!
