Holidays ...... yaaaaaay, it feels so so so good not having to get out of bed at sparrow's fart, to be able to do what I want when I want to but the best thing about the holidays is that you don't need to do any tests or assignments for school. You don't have to study for said tests or assignments for school.... it's absolute bliss.  I like hanging out with my cats (and the fish) all day long and we don't have to wait till the weekend to go places for fun, I can go during the week. I wasn't excited for the holidays. I was ready for the holidays, The first thing I did was sleep in. I got so much rest! I've never felt as rested as I did that day. All in all, any holiday is great. I may only have two weeks but that's plenty. I'm going to recharge my batteries and have fun and do the most important thing of all, sleep. 

Until next time

Story filed: art show is go!

Hi people, Leo here. Today I am going to say that the Bathurst Young Artists art competition and exhibition I have been working on (with other BRAG Youth Arts Ambassadors committee people) for a long time has been, finished and was great! I was at the opening of the exhibition and took photos and looked at all the amazing entries. We had a special welcome from Aunty Gloria and lots of other speakers as well. The best thing was the art. I submitted a short animation called "Cat crosses the road'. It was pretty ok and at least one person said to me that they liked it. I thought the prize winners' work was amazing and well done on being awarded a prize. I ate a lot of the finger food as I was hungry and it was good. Thanks to everyone who helped on the show and I hope all the visitors enjoyed the art.

Until next time

Hi people, Leo here. I’m on the council of the BRAG Youth Advocates and I am supporting the Bathurst Youth Art Prize 2022 and we want to invite all young artists to enter an artwork. The prize is open to all categories of artworks including painting, photography, ceramics, sculpture, printmaking, and video. There are great prizes and you will have the opportunity to sell their artwork during the exhibition!!! Entry is free. This is an initiative of the BRAG Youth Advocates. The Bathurst Youth Art Prize 2022 aims to encourage young people in the Bathurst and surrounding region to engage in and create art. The prize finalists will be exhibited at Tremain’s Mill in Bathurst 9am - 1pm on Saturday 12 March and Sunday 13 March 2022 with a prize ceremony and opening event.

Congratulations player! you have completed level 2021 of the game of life. To continue to level 2022 continue to live. Great job! you have now unlocked level 2022 and don't forget to check your inventory for new achievements and prizes. (Opens pocket) In your inventory space you have one stick of chewing gum, one movie ticket to the fast and the mildly frustrated and one booster pack. Hi there, Leo here, well done everyone. We've made it to level 2022. I hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a happy new year and are now ready to take on level 2022. It's going to be great... Well, I don't know if it's going to be great, it could be bad or amazing, I can't predict the future, all I'm hoping is that my school doesn't go back to online learning, I just don't feel like I learnt much last time we had to do it and communication was hard. Well, whatever happens, happens and that's that. So far, level 2022 has been good, not too hard and on the 18th, I levelled up to level 14 so happy leveling up to me. It was good seeing you again and until we meet again.

Until next time
