An Ode to the Internet (or: My Return to Blogging)


Our wifi who art in cyberspace,
Flip Broadband by thy name.
Your data come,
and blogging be done,
in New Zealand as it was in Japan.
Give me this day a funny cat video
and a Skype conversation with my mother.
And let me not spend all on day on Imgur
But deliver me to an awesome baking recipe on Pinterest.
Amen

Words cannot describe how happy I am to have constant access to the internet again. Although the words above might give you some idea. After having internet at home for several years going for six months without it was like losing a limb. That may sound a little (okay, a lot) dramatic I know but, being on the other side of the world to all my family and friends and not being able to communicate with them whenever I felt like it wasn't very nice. Luckily though we have gotten wifi and I've reclaimed my little patch of cyberspace. I can now blog and Viber, Skype, Snapchat and annoy everyone at home to my heart's content.

So it's been quite a while since I blogged. I wasn't able to without internet and I didn't really have much to talk about seeing as I haven't had the money to do anything in the last while. Summer is just around the corner though so I'm hoping I'll have the funds to get back on the road and see and do some exciting things. In the meanwhile though I've decided to set myself another 30 day challenge. My first 30 day challenge was a photo challenge (click here to view). This one is a drawing challenge I found on imgur.com, my favourite source for ridiculous, nonsensical pictures and gifs. So although I know there is no way I'll get it all done in 30 days (due mostly to my astronomical laziness) I will attempt to do all 30 and do them in as close to 30 days as I can manage.
