THERE IS A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING
Saturday, December 3
7:30 - Dad is stressed trying to set up easel. Stop stressing. Great, now I am stressing. Thanks.
9:19 - $18 and it has only been 'on' for 19 minutes. That is almost a dollar a minute.
9:24 - No, Emma. You are not allowed to buy that Beatles handbag you can see hanging up a few stalls over. Or those macarons.
9:34 - Stop getting flustered.
9:38 - Just realised that I have already made more in the first half hour than I did the entire time at the Car Boot Sale. Go me.
9:49 - Little Boy picks up pterodactyl brooch. Boy's dad asks him why he wants a brooch - "They are for girls". Boy states that he wants to give said brooch to his girlfriend. His dad starts ripping him off, "I love you [insert name here], here is a pterodactyl brooch". (Now, I personally would be over the moon if a boy bought a pterodactyl brooch for me. It takes all types. Note: No one is allowed to use this information against me.)
10:31 - Brooch/badge discussion between me and Liv, RE: Boys. Summary: It should totally be socially acceptable for men to wear a cool brooch on their shirt (or tie, or jacket...etc...). Why are brooches a girly thing? Men can get away with badges, so why not brooches?
11:00 - Family turn up. Lots of family.
11:19 - My face hurts.
12:19 - Lunch. Also, I know people *think* they are being helpful by putting the cufflinks back in the earrings bowl, but I can assure you, that isn't where they are supposed to go, and it won't be my fault if I am unable to fish them out again before someone mistakenly buys them thinking they are earrings.
12:30 - I gave in. Mmm...macaron...
1:31 - Sugar overload. Stupid free lollies. No more free lollies for me.
1:37 - It is only downhill from here.
1:43 - Tired. So Tired.
1:54 - Wish I knew how much money I had. Totally want to get my PS3 off lay-by.
2:26 - Just had the realisation that there will be people walking around, wearing my jewellery. Overwhelming. GULP. Trying not to have some sort of nervous breakdown over it (in a good way, in a good way!).
2:49 - Went to toilet. Graffiti on wall reads "toilet tennis, look left". I look left. Graffiti reads, "toilet tennis, look right". Look left, look right. Hahahaha I see what they did there ^-^
3:17 - Everyone's response to the signs/labels about the origami jewellery seems to be tl;dr.
4:23 - Liv: "Have you ever tried bonding with a chicken?"
And that is where the updates stopped, possibly due to exhaustion. I had the best day ever! A special shout out to my friends Alex, Rachel and Charlie who turned up in the afternoon, when I was at the point of absolute exhaustion - just seeing you guys gave me enough of a boost to last right until the end! *hugs* (:

chicken's really aren't that easy to bond with. you offer them bread and they carry it a few meters away and leave it sitting on your grass, then come back and peck at your freckles.
