In the years to come daylight savings will be considered as one of the greatest evils to occur in Western Australia. It will be on par with horrific events such as Barney the Dinosaur and the Tom Cruise jump on couch scene. Mayhap it might even be considered to be as terrible as the appalling World Cup Game between the Italians and the Australians (damn those babies, we DO NOT PUSH THAT HARD!).
*clears throat*
Daylight savings will alter the very foundation of our society. Companies will not have to get calls to the Eastern States in early, we will not have to alter our times, and taken into consideration the time difference changes that occur in the rest of the world, as our times will change to. This can only bode ill for our businesses.
Furthermore, our cows will no longer be able to be milked at their regular times, they will not know when to come home, they will be confused. We cannot compare our cattle to the cattle of the rest of the world. Ours are more precious, more...sensitive to such drastic, terrible, life altering changes. This should not be taken lightly.
Worst of all, the quiet, laid back, laissez-faire attitude that is so ingrained in our West Aussie culture will be affected! Alas, we shall have longer days, more time in the sun, but worst of all, we'll actually have to work the full 8 hour day, because the excuse of "Oh, but our Eastern office is closed now" will not be able to be used!
Ladies, and gentlemen, it is coming. Daylight savings is no longer a myth.
In other news, milk-drinking youths all over WA, are blaming cows for the appaling literacy levels of the State, stating that idiocy is contagious.

An Intro
Okay, well, after much procrastination I've finally decided to write something if just for the sake of writing. If any of you crazy folks want to know who exactly I am - well, cue up, cause there's a line around the corner wondering the same thing ;).
Honestly though, it's a question that plagues most of us. What do you usually answer when someone asks you who you are? A name, and age, often an occupation: writer, law and psychology student, bookseller. Sometimes you list interests, like dancer, equestrian, chef, book-enthusiast.
Culture? French-Canadian and Australian.
But do those things really define who you are? Who knows. But for an intro that doesn't sound to bad.
Right now, who I am is a tired, over-worked, completely stressed, direly anxious writer waiting for a response that could either be the make or break of the year (at least for the two weeks after the answer in the case of a rejection letter) who is wondering if it isn't a good idea to throw down the white proverbial gloves and leave the writing to the experts. Hmm...also wondering what exactly I should make for dinner...
