a sense of humour in flight...
student film...
So very very proud of a student in my Year 10 English class. This is his creative response to the novel 'To Kill a Mockingbird'...Doubly proud because his short film was created during the remote learning period...

18th-century voice...
Who would believe that an 18th-century word could almost seem prophetic... and even have a targetted touch of surprise humour...So much could spin from this word... https://t.co/p4miI9UYu4

Drumpf. Remember? That was their real last name before his family changed it. Probably means the same thing.

'thunderstorm asthma' warning...
8:00pm on my Mornington Peninsula. About 3 hours ago, severe thunderstorm warnings for Victoria. An extra warning was issued - this storm may cause 'thunderstorm asthma'. The weather gods are still in hot debate after some rumbles and few wind gusts according to my current skies. pic.twitter.com/dME5rhBkef

Iceland meets Uluru?...
Who would believe that icy mountains of Iceland in the far north could possibly mirror the Australian hot realms of Uluru in the south... Mother Nature is surely a wonder... https://t.co/E2GPDaCy10

Wiradjuri country...
What a grand idea...Another way to connect with the original spirit of our land...And for me personally, another sign that my life overhaul is on track...Coolamon is so very close to my future destination...For now, I live on the land of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation. https://t.co/Qgy9wuCKY1 pic.twitter.com/3wTPc7ACbn

2019 Chinese film 'Better Days' = story of a bullied high school girl+teenage street thug, how their lives were changed by each other. Also, while self-quarantining as a band, OneRepublic wrote the hopeful song “Better Days”.
