Hello. I hope you’re all doing amazing and I hope everything is going well. Merry Christmas to those who celebrate and happy holidays for those who are getting that well deserved rest. My question for today:
          How is one meant to use an umbrella???
          
          I personally am not gifted in the art of umbrella using, I usually end up somewhat wet. And yet I see people staying dry in downpours with an umbrella. HOW??
          
          Also does anyone else hear the periodic table song whenever they hear the Can Can? I do
          
          I’m not ready to go back to school. Time is going very fast and I can’t keep up.

          Do your seasons actually not start on the same date each year?? 
          - Here in Australia, summer goes from Dec 1 to Feb 28-9, Autumn goes from Mar 1 to May 31, Winter goes from Jun 1 to Aug 31 and spring is Sep 1 to Nov 30. Apparently you use the moon or smtg?? Pls explain.

Do you think that one day we’ll forget the stars? As cities grow and lights get brighter, do you think one day stars will be a myth of the past? Myths that only the elite can see and know, legends that appear in books and paintings but can’t be seen in real life.

Questions for citizens of the US.
          1. How the actual flipping flop did trump win? All I see is trump hating but still he won.
          And
          2. People drink Dr. Pepper willingly??? I had a taste today and it legitimately tastes like hand sanitiser. Incredibly confused.

So, is this a global experience or just an Australian one. I have held two crocodiles in my life, once in kindergarten, once in primary (elementary) school. Both times they were small crocs, but still. They were saltwater crocodiles too (Google how  big they get) so they would have grown to be massive. Along with two crocodiles, I’ve held snakes, birds, a meerkat. I’ve touched different starfish, sea cucumbers, a little stingray thing and an octopus

ANSWER ME THIS. 
          Why is everyone but no one hiring. Like I’m broke, I have $2 to my name. So obviously I went job searching. SOMEHOW, every single business has “now hiring juniors” signs, but when I hand my resume in, radio silence. 
          
          Also God is great, and I love him. But youth groups really get on my nerves. Everyone is yelling and screaming and you have to dodge three different ball games that don’t appear to have apparent structure or rules, that one special needs kid is trying to touch me and no one I know is there. And to make matters worse, when I finally get to the end, I hop in the car only for my sister to decide it’s high time to talk at volume 1000 while sniffing snot back up her nose. Fun

There’s nothing fun with chronic illnesses, but let me tell you. I highly doubt you’ve ever had an ego boost bigger than when my doctor said “low blood pressure is normal in tall slender girls like you.”

I hate roller coasters. Both physical and emotional. 
          
          Don’t be an arachnophobe born in Australia, it’s not fun.
          
          I need some sleep but us Aussies are just too girt.

So. Explain to me. If I use wattpad on a browser, I don’t get ads between chapters, but I can’t write from my phone. But, if I use wattpad from the app, I get interrupted reading and the ability to write on the go. I think I’m just gonna read from the browser and write from the app.
