A Posty Post

Yay it's been a good mail week this week. Some nice surprises! I hope you have all had a good one.
It's been mega hot also, I can feel summer coming to punch me in the face very soon! I really have no idea why I was longing for the heat for so long... clearly Europe made me think that we have mild nice bearable summers here is Aus - I was LYING TO MYSELF!

Parcel from Julie returning my B&W Photo Journal. It was her swap, but most people went a bit AWOL, so she sent it back to me so it wouldn't get lost... I'll post up the wicked cool photos it contains next.

FAIL! and some post

Ok so I failed at my mission. It has been about 3 weeks since I added to my creative journal. sadface. Uni essays and then being away from it for too long contributed, but I think the main factor was my laziness.
But anyway, now I am working, uni is over (my first of 5 semesters YAY), and it's been way too long since I did a mail post. Lots has been arriving, and I forgot (a lot) to photo everything I sent out, but there are a few things. My Postcrossing lag has caught up with me, so I sent out a bunch of cards today.
Ch-ch-check it!
