The Worst Internet in Australia, Red-Eyed Pigeons and Camels

This is Jess, Jess says hi! Clap for Jessie, Jessie die (thought it's too bad that I'm already dead)

I am in....what is this place?....Monkey Mia now and the weather is nice (I'm right next to the beach-I can see it through the door thats next to me-and the sun is very, very bright) and I've been travelling up the coast for 6 days now (without internet might I add) The computer that I'm typing on at the moment is a pie terminal (no it is not made of pie) and the keyboard is tiny (smaller than a laptops) and the keys are so old that the letters have actually worn off so I would be stuffed if I didn't already know where all of the keys are! I am also proud to say that I have now found a computer with internet that is both slower (way, way slower) and more expensive than my home computer :P

My sister took a ride down the beach on a camel before, I ran and hid behind the jetty because camels are my arch-nemisis. My parents tried to get me on one but they failed, miserably.

Yesterday at the roadhouse that we stopped at to get fuel I saw a large flock of red-eyed pigeons and I immediately thought 'oh no, the Volturi are after me!' Luckily they weren't and I wasn't savaged by vampire pigeons.

The caravan has survived it's trip up-amazingly-but I'm not sure if it will survive on the way back down! My sister gets really annoying when she's bored-although I do too-and she was throwing food at me today-which I promptly threw back. In an attempt to stave off the boredom I have also now read the host a grand total of 4 times-yes, it is a good book-and now I'm hoping that there will be a sequil.

I have hust realised that the browser type that I am using is Mozilla Firefox and I actually like good old Microsoft's Internet Explorer better. I think it's just more practical and you can do just about anything that you want with it-unlike this thing which I cant seem to figure out/use tabs/open another window/refresh the page/make the window smaller/adjust the size of the window at all!

I hope to see some dolphins tomorrow otherwise this holiday will have been my worst one in history. Maybe I'll get to see a dugong too, that would make my day!

...On another note, I HAVEN'T DONE ANY HOMEWORK AT ALL YET/SCIENCE STUDY/MATHS STUDY/ENGLISH/ANYTHING!!!! I am so dead. And someone behind me just ran across the room, tripped on a patch of water and slammed their head into the metal kitchen table, where's the doctor?...

I better go do everything else that I have to do before my internet time runs and out and maybe come back to this later/tomorrow.

-Jess the dead-

P.S There is a large sailing ship on the horizon at the moment and it reminds me distinctly of the Black Pearl, ahoy there!

Lol. A computer made out of pie?!? Hahahaha. Sad to say, I have no idea what a pie terminal is. :P And even though I'm on the internet this very second - wait, no, make that milli-second, I don't have time to go to wiki to search it up. Actually, the truth is that I'm too lazy to go to wiki to search up 'pie terminal' because I'm already on wiki, searching up something else.

But you didn't need to know that. xD Lol, 6 days without internet!! Is that your record?? 6 days without internet? Lol, I can't remember mine; I think it was almost 2 weeks without internet (by the way, I am not counting camp last year). This was when I went overseas, so it's all good. T_T

Lol! Camels! Yes, camels are also my enemies... Deadly, deadly deadly enemies...

Gaah. Red-eyed pigeons are nothing. NOTHING I say. At least, they're nothing compared to a red-eyed.... ME!! xD Me, at 5 o'clock in the morning without any sleep the previous night; just movies, talking, music, pillows, food, etc. etc. etc. = me on Saturday night. xD

But, you never know what the Volturi are planning; they'll never cease to surprise us, will they?

Ah, lol Mozilla Firefox. I used that for the majority of last year. It was alright, but I honestly cannot see the difference between Internet browsers except for the goddamn freaking presentation, which I have to say I prefer Internet Explorer, only because of it's, if I may, sophisticated layout, unlike Mozilla's which looks like something from the 1900's. Don't look at me like that; I am aware that internet only came about near the end of the 1900s. But you know what I mean.

Oh good lord. Not Pirates of the Caribbean. Please! *runs off to lj*
