a melbourne shakespeare tale.

(posted on Monday, April 6 by eii wyy nae.)

Kim has finally finished his degree. *I heard.* hooray! Well to be technical he hasn’t passed yet so Kim and I can't be certain that it is all over, but fingers crossed right? His last exam was on Monday and it was the hardest of the three, passable though he think. Annabelle have been a busy little girl for the rest of the week trying to catch up with her socializing and shopping before she head back to ye-olde-hometown next week for a few days with the parents.

I thought I'd share with you this polaroid I took after sometime. I have been wanting to take a polaroid of this house ever since I got my camera, and I make up little stories about it in my head. You see directly opposite this big old mansion sits another big old mansion. In my head they were built by warring neighbours back in the olde-days (I am not good with era's.) who were trying to outdo each other, a bit Romeo and Juliet style.

And in true Shakespearean tradition there were star crossed lovers who would each sit in their bell towers, with their candle flickering, staring out across the gardens and the street to the person in the other tower. Who knows maybe they even did some kind of wacky light signals with their candles? I am sure it's possible. Maybe they ran away and eloped, or maybe the girl was married off to some rich kid in Canterbury.

So there you go, a little peek into the silliness that is in my head - with my head skyward, wondering what the insides of these very pretty old houses look like.

I'll be back to regular programming now so I will be back sharing all of my discoveries and insightful philosophizing that has been going on over the last few weeks.

*hopefully.*

Signed with love,
