HALF WAY!!!

Sun, 13 Apr 2008 11:34:17 GMT

Hey everyone!!

It's week 11 of 22, and that means that i'm half way done! my glass is officially half full now, as opposed to the half empty it was a few weeks ago. Since Easter, when most of you got an update, i've done a heap of shit, some i liked, some i SO didnt.

They week after i got back cook div got bussed out to HMAS HARMAN in canberra and commenced 4 days of Steyr shooting. It was fun, but learning all the drill, espicially stripping thw weapon, was tough out. In the end i shot like shit, but the reality is that i probably wont ever have to fire the Steyr in anger.

Then we've had a heap of time in the classroom, learning about history, politics, laws, communications and some other more then random shit that i can't remember. Then finally we got to go out on the range to shoot 9mm pistols, the officers weapon. this is something that i'll probably have to keep up todate because it's the weapon all officers carry in 'warlike situations'

this week i smashed out my history assignment (all 2200 words) in a few hours... yes, last minute, but old habits die hard and thats just something yr 12 gives you :P.

today i got to be assistant college officer of the day... A/COOD. all pomp and ceremony and you dont sctually do anything useful. well, that isnt quite true, i got to do history, but really, it isnt like the posistion fullfull any neccessary function.

currently im sitting in the computer room killing time so that i dont have to go back to the office and sit on my ass til midnight. yeh, thats right.... 12!!! and i still have to get up at 5 tomorrow morning for pt!!!

speaking of pt, it's actually going ok. i fucked my knee a bit so its hurting to run but it im sure its something that i can push through. i gained 38seconds on my 2.4km run, so not impressed! hopefully when i have the actual, real test on the 28th of april i can get under 10mins... but i dont think it'll happen...

other then that... not alot happening...

will talk to people soon!

almost home....

Sat, 15 Mar 2008 02:24:19 GMT

hey again! well it's almost easter which means that im almost home!!! i have a big day thursday planned, and friday morning is taken, but if you're lucky you can see me over the weekend before i fly out on monday...

im going to try and pop into karate on thursday afternoon, and then come in for a class on saturday once i comfirm the time. also thurdays is dinner night, as well as a heap of beauty appointments and at some point., i have to see the bank to arrange for my pay to be saved, yeh, i still not very good at that :P

so far i've been shopping twice, once for lingerie and the other time for clothes and shoes.... i have a white top and another red top for dinner, as well as a green tank and copper t for every day stuff. also got cream mary janes and black boots.... but the weather here is totally nice and i need some more shorts and a casual skirt

when i go home i'll bring some stuff back, but everything else i think i'll just give away, i certinately dont need it any more!

i have more uniforems then i know what to do with, and that means a different pair of shoes to go with each one, but the shoes here are no where near as pretty as a pair of good steve maddens.....

some important milestones... im now 18, but i dont feel like it AT ALL.... not only cant i not get into the local pub due to a severe lack of ID, but it's not like those in the Navy under training have any special privlidges anyway.

the plan to get internet fell thru, $300 for a modem means NO WAY for me, but i can deal with what i have here... maybe there will be something i can get when i gpo home, but otherwise, this isnt too bad...

juat got back from my first week at sea too, not exactly horendous, but not soemthing that im hoping to repeat in the very near future... will be away for a month later on for sea training, going to NX on HMAS MANROOA, which is a big ship of the fleet... google it if you can be f'd

after easter im subjected to a few days of small arms training, which im looking forward to, it'll be on the Styer and then after a few days back in CRESWELL, on the 9mm pistol. between the training we have our cocktail party... sigh... almost full ceremonial dress.... not looking forward to it becauase the uniform for it is not only totally unfeminine but totally unflattering!

off to find a facebook computer....

looking forward to seeing everyone!!!

NAVY LIFE

Sun, 24 Feb 2008 05:27:49 GMT

well no doubt you've all got my emails, and i'll get facebook back in 2 weeks, but this is for all those poor people who just arent cool enough to be part of the emil circle... JOKES!!!

send me your email and i'll add you to the supercool list, but you have to mail me back!!

im not going to repeat EVERYTHING ive said, im copying and pasting... (turn out here if you're supercool already :P)

HI EVERYONE!!!

about the grad parade, gona be kick ass. the sunset ceremony will be with rifles, and just after sunset we get to fire them (hopefully all at the same time) which means everyone has the flash happening at the same time.

what else has been happening?? highlights: HMAS COLLINS (the sub) rocked up about 2 weeks ago so i got to go on tour for about 2 hours (totally awesome btw)

first exercise was coronel, an afternoon of team building stuff. had to carry a log, stretcher and all thei other shit 5kms in 2 hours along roadds, tracks, beaches and even THRU a lagoon (not around, thru)

second was last night, sunda strait, 0400 wakeup on thrusday was hard. 12km pack march, 12km bike ride, 6km row (raft) across the bay, 3km swim with all this crap (we had 10mins to build a raft, like that was ever gona happen!) so we just dumped it in and pushed it. then we had to carry said stuff 5kms BACK to were we jumped in

and we camped on one of the sporting grounds, no rain. other divs went to a different ground with sprinklers.. that activate in the wee early hours... some idiot was stupid enough to set up the hootchie OVER a sprinkler. i think thats awesome, deffinately an enrty into the darwin awards!

now i have the weekend off, totally awesome cos i have a shitload of washing and ironing to do!

pity there is no wireless here, cos i have VERY limited access to the facebook comps.

keep sending me letters and photos!!

oh d ams and sof, i cant come to the school thingo cos out div has watch that weekend and i need to be on duty from 0530... :( but i'll see you all at easter!!

about that, dinner at pancake parlous at chaddy, i have stuff to buy before!! i know i said i wanted to go out and stuff, but im so tired here so i think a low key affair is good.

pass this on to everyone who needs to know! (or wants to) or better yet, put it on facebook or something!

hope you're all well and not suffereing too hard at uni!

love iz xoxo!

laser force

Mon, 21 Jan 2008 11:02:27 GMT

so today i successfully completed 3 hours of laser force... in heels... (wtf?, i hear many of you say...)

and im kinda A) ashamed that im good and B) proud

please dont mistake me for one of those people who turns a 10 mintue game into a life thing "omg, i didnt beat my top score....NOOOOOOO!!!!" infact i'd rather spend more time making out beofre the games starts then inside the actual game (maybe that's the sad bit...)

i went with james' brother and his friends, about 8 of us, and the first game was good... by the 5th there were almot 40... which makes it interesting when 15 of them are all little kids... (you have to shoot lower... and they are faster :P)

so it was all good in teams untill we go fuck this, lets try free for all. the fuck the colour you're wearing... SHOOT EVERYONE! so i team up with some little kids and we decide that we wont shoot each other. so we're on top of thsi ramp thingo (quite handy) and i decide that fuck the alliance, im gona shoot them when they arent looking... bad morals, but it gets me extra points!

over all the night was fun, even if you do have a little kid running after you "Im not going to give up on you!! I'll get you!!"

im still secretely ashamed that im so good at something many people consider a life-long thing... *sigh*

and now my adult thoughts... i hate people who dont share things... not food and stuff, but things that worry them. if you're friends with someone, then dont you care about them? if you do soemthing embrassign then i (probably) wont laugh at you, and i wont think any less of you... and people who lie to 'protect' annoy me even more... if you really wanted to be my friend you wouldnt lie!

you can tell me lies all day, but dont let me catch you...

(god, thats not personal at all is it????)

anyways, to all those who hate little kids at laser force, UNITE!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Sun, 20 Jan 2008 23:27:58 GMT

no, there is no one that we forgot to say happy birthday to, but today my blog turns 2!!! yay!

ok, whatever.. even im over that now :P

so whats been up lately... well al's (finally) had his birthday party! and even tho it wasnt the biggest or the most fancy, i lovede b=knowing everyone and being able to have a conversation without starting with "so, how do you know al" or "so what school did/do you go to?"

some (very vauge) memories...

getting hit with fake grapes... not only is that incredibily embrassing, but i have a lump on my head! (atleast they were red grapes, i like them better then the green ones :P)
playing "i never..." tures out that i've done more then i thought, and that becomes very apparent when you get that drunk... for the record, i DID NOT throw up, you make those sounds when you get champaign up (down?) your nose... very uncomfortable situation...
an all white dress for the first time ever! and it stayed white! it's a good thing that i wasnt drinking coloured alcohol!
salad.. at a party... i love salad too (dont get me erong) but that was a little extreme :P
"can we go to safeway now?" "what abotu ryan?" "what about ryan???????" "i want to go to safeway!" gezze ryan, should have arrived a bit earlier lol
someone going WAY TOO overboard on the pda... and others not going there at all (oh god, can you guess?!?!) and i swear that i didnt instigate ANYTHING on my end... you'll have to ask him about it....
curled up on the couch recovering.. and discovering! lots of talk about sex (what exactly WAS i saying?!?!?!)
fighting over the music... i dont remember one song actually playing the whole way thru!

as usual, if you remember whaything that i dont... which is proably alot.... then let me know!!! AND PEER PRESSURE TO NIKC TO PUT HIS PHOTOS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

NYE, NY day and the consequenses!!

Fri, 04 Jan 2008 13:01:06 GMT

well hello again!!

back afte a totally smashing festive season! twas a good few weeks to be had by all!!

ok, now that my mum's gone i can drop the shit!

nye was awesome, as vividly described by nick and the facebook photos, tho i cant say i remember alot of them.... i do however recall watching the fireworks and thinking how boring they were!! yes, thats right, im calling the fireworks BORING!!!

so after we left sof's, james and i went back to his place and didnt have sex (DIDNT SEE THAT COMING, LOl!!!) mostly cos i was tired and there were other things on my mind... god i sound OLD... 'hunny, i have a headache'

got home the next morning at 8.30.... 5 hrs and 30 mins after cerfew, bullshit i was gona be home by 3am!! and for a lovely effort i got 'grounded'.... whatever... not really different to normal life!

new years day i spent cleaning windows then catching up with isie, eric, bec, janet, sally and another bec... and james, he came too :P after fish and chips at the rotunda at sandy we went back to isies place and did the pool thing for a bit, then james and i went back to his place and did the us thing for a bit

so what else is news??? this is probably the last blog post before i go :( i leave on the 30th for thoes who dont know

and i dont have proper msn anymore, only web messenger :(

ive been filling out lots of forms lately, and getting my shit together... i got me and iron today, most depressing thing i ever thought i buy... even the boring sports bra was more interesting!! and thats saying something!!

and now i need to rant... not being a school means i dont get to see my best friends every day, which means things build up, and i dont feel like haveing a heated phone conversation at 12...

everything is falling apart, i dont see you as much and im so scared that when i go it'll happen all over again, except this time i really wont know about it because i wont be here. and you were good enough to hide it from your best friend, who is atlewats friend enough not to tell me

on top of all that, i wonder, so much, do you ever think of her??????????????? its driving me insane! literally, you tell me not to think too hard, but this is all i think of... and i bet that when i come back you wont even notice me, because im like a toy you take down to play with when you're bored....

and thats SO not everything i have to say, but its all i can say without making it obvious... and even as it is i rekon you can pick it... grrrr

hopeing everony has a better summer then me...

xmas and other things....

Wed, 26 Dec 2007 05:41:59 GMT

happy CHRISTMAS!!!

i dont know hou you've all been but the last days have been super busy!! shopping, then xmas day presents, lunch and dinner, and then today boxing day sales and lunch... no dinner plans yet :P

so i got all my presents... some at the last minute :P and they're wrapped and sitting under the tree. at this point i know where they all are... untill aaron decieds to move them all so his are at the front... tut tut tut

xmas morning... we dont actually get up untill 10ish, i got lots of prsents... short listed: make up, shoes, chocolate shoe [life size], make up, shoe boxes [clear, stackable], make up bags, shoe calander [366 pairs of shoes!!] as well as money and a few toiletries

so what am i gona do with my contraband next year? HIDE IT! besides, everyone knows that make up and shoes define a girl lol

xmas lunch as the hilton... deff not as good as the hyatt, they're closed this year due to renovations :(, but the desserts were good... not enough to make up for the lunch tho!

then last night james and his family came over for a light dinner, fruit, meats, cheese, wine, that kinda thing, and i got presenst from them ( i GAVE presents too... shock horror :P)

from james i got a silver (white gold ?) ring that matches his, and a bottle of versace baby blue jeans... YUM!! do you know how HARD it is to find a perume that came out over 10 years ago?? so congrats to him!

i got him a blue pen (like the pen is blue, not just the ink) and some writing paper and envelopes so that he has no excuse not to write to me next year :D

so he left, a little too early if you ask me... but we were tired from xmas stuff... hopefully tomorrow will be fun!

really happy with this years gifts... but thats cos i was really specific... "i want this from you" that way they know what to get me, and i get what i want :D

boxing day sales are another thing... you cant tell a wrack of clothes what you want... or the fitting room mirror to make you look great :(

but what you CAN do is shop in pairs.... that way you never miss out on clothes on both sides!!

so i got 2 polos and somne bathers... still need other stuff for the navy but it's a start

and not im going to be really.... GROWN UP

i cant remember the last time i had sex... i know it wasnt THAT long ago but... i just got used to seeing james every day and then... we just dont get alone time :(

i dont care if you think thats too much infomation... im being grown up :P

pre-xmas shopping

Sat, 22 Dec 2007 08:29:03 GMT

pre-xmas shopping is...

crap in the rain
a way to spend my money
a way to spend my MUM'S money
only done properly when it's rushed
not done very well by many people
so much fun with another person
just not for other people's presents

yes, that's right... i shop for myself during xmas shopping... xmas isnt about giving, it's about receiving!!! so today, in the opposite spirit of xmas, i went out and got myself something... again :P. so far, persents for myself have included new pillow cases, new undies, lots of hot chocolate with friends (ok, that's a lie.. my friends are busy so i had hot chocolatey myself :( ) and my ENTER score

detour here to talk about the ENTER... methods was a top subject (WTF?!?) and i didnt actually do all that well in geog :( *massive tears...* and it turns out that the internet isnt actually that busy... well, not at 8.30

and my final score was ok... good enough to get me into uni, but not exactly amazing...

ok, back to the good stuff :P i have done most of my xmas shopping, but have a totally of 3 more presents to get... ams', isie's and pam's (james' mum) and i know what im getting for those girls so it's all good

as to what i KNOW im getting?? well, there is make up, shoes and chocolate under the tree at home, a wrapped jewllery box with a ring on james' dresser (and another gift in his sock drawer) and that' it... i can specualte the rest, but otherwise i have not a clue :( i KNOW it's supposed to be a suprise but... i HATE waiting

and plans for this xmas?? lunch at the hilton (was gona be the hyatt but they have renovations going on :( ) and seeing my grandparents in albury later... hopefully i'll catch up with the people that matter most to mevery soon... cos i MISS THEM!!!

as for today's activities... beauty appointment and shopping... not really new in my life :P

and american dad sums up this perfectly... it's not happy holiday, it's happy CHRISTMAS!!!!

"Rosebud..."

Wed, 12 Dec 2007 09:26:30 GMT

IM BACK!!! (but most of you who read this with know already.... :P)

it was awesome!!! how much time can one spend doing absolutely nothing?? about a week!

so heres what i did all week:

drinking, it' schoolies, whats new?? tho i suggest that people dont take secret shots anymore, it leads to a general vibe of lightweight-ed-ness
watching al and cvp play zelda.... and other games, btw, mario party is boring... and im not used to using to hands!!!
cardboard candy, "can i have some more??" "I want more!!"
james and luke... $12 items... pictures that won't ever go on facebook... smelly clothes... lots of toothpaste before i would be kissing you!
monopoly, $20 000 000 and it counts for shit all cos i have no property!! Al inherits the lots when i skipout for physical activity and then squanders the lot on pretty girls and fast cars!!
truth or dare --> truth or truth cos "i dare you to answer this question!!!" there were some suprises, but nothing that could make you hate anyone, it anything, it cleared a few things up!
making a mess of scrabble "can i spell digonally?" "yeh, it's a word"...... "no you cant put it that way, it has to be strait!!!" LOL!!!! and spelling 'clit'.. it isnt my fault that i didnt have a better word... tho it may have been my fault that it was on my mind :P
more drinking!! rum is better with coke than orange juice, btw, white russians are... ewwie and i'll have a finger me good, but not in a bottle *wink wink*
the beach... once... for an hour... if only i wasnt so SORE!!!
late nights (4am anyone??) and then deciding not to sleep [and ending up sleeping at about 6 and getting up at 8]
lots of showers... lots of frustrations
food fights!!! dont fight with tobasco sauce... OWWWIE!!!
dying al's hair black... twice!!! cos the first time it made him look like an old man!
constantly going to the supermarket cos we cant figure out how much bread, milk and juice 8 people go thru

doubtless there is a heap more, so add comments with your fav and least fave bits!!!

my fave: truth or truth

least fave: the tears...

yes, there were about 2 days were james and i cried non stop... god that was just depressing. hugs for the pretty girl on the tramperline as well!!!

iz xx

i hate school laptops!!!! (there are other things :P)

Mon, 26 Nov 2007 00:56:54 GMT

absolutely HATE them, they are slow and completely unreliable and they are designed to die roughly 3 weeks before you have to hand them back....

so today im planning on handing it back (yes, 3 days late) and im copying all my files for james' hard disk until my other laptop is ready

and i totally didnt realise just how MANY files i had... i just looked at it in general as a groupd of files that took up roughly 22 GB.... it turns out them copying them is rather a challenge and i keep changing my mind on what i want to keep and what can go... i had to say good bye to mean girls, stick it, v for vedetta and center stage *tear*

so what else have i been up to... i had a karate comp yesterday, lost 3rd place in kata and then won sparring, i also won a demo fight, which was totally awesome cos the girl was a national fighter, so i guess that means my sparring isnt as rough as i thought it was

i've also been doing a whole lot of nothing, which is amazing given the amount of time i have, been trying to find a job but i havnt heard back from any one i applied to, right now im happy working at karate in the afternoons

and exams are finally over, which still hasnt sunk in, or maybe it has and im just not really caring, tho i really cant believe this whole lot of nothing is what i regularly did during my holidays!!! im going to venus bay next wednesday *YAY!!!* with friends and that will be pretty kick ass

there has also been one party since exams finished, ry's 18th!!!! it was a dress up and i wa greeted by a very enthusatic captin jack when i walked in.. whose ring ended up down my top... and then there was the whole awkward thing with luke *so sorry!!!!!*

some other interesting observstions:

nick wearing high heels ... uhhhhh
they werent very close at all.... not at all *sigh*
two people dressed very similar... but i dont wana give it away
everybody covered in spakles!!! so sorry if you are still covered in them, i still have them in my hair!!
the agreement that she's a whore, and he didnt notice my tirade!!
james apparently off with another girl... i almost hope it stains considering i would never imply that about ams to you
some very passionate times in the bathroom and around the corner (and im not just talking about me!!)
she was upset cos they are going out!!! what did u expect, silly girl, you arent THAT hot
and said guy being more of a player then i thought

im not going to name names any more than i have... im only going to warn you that i can be quite observant when im drunk and that i do actualy remember your embarrassing moments!!

hopefully venus bay will be a blast... i'll have more to say on that later!!!

is counting down a good idea??

Mon, 12 Nov 2007 05:29:54 GMT

I have started counting down... my next exam, my last exam, parties, karate competitions, xmas, birthdays, laving dates... its all seeming so far away... which leads me to ask, is it really a good idea to count down everything... like on friday night at 10pm i'll start counting down till 5pm on sunday... and then at 10pm on sunday im counting down till wednesday... it really is a vicsious cycle... and its slowly driving me crazy because i have no idea what to do with the time in between exvents in my so boring life

i think i made it worse today by buying a 2008 diary...so now i can count down till my 3 days holiday in april... all 3 for them... *tear*

and those who have to spend all day with me know that right now im very pensive... which is so retarded during exam time...

Finally It's Started

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 23:36:27 GMT

So it started yesterday... and what an anticlimax it was, honestly, you'd think that the english exam would have been harder. Personally i thought that if you didnt finish then you clearly wrote to much or shouldnt be doing english, cos 3 hrs i more than enough time.

the Citizen Kane question (a "how" for Pt 1) was clearly diecting you to go through each charaters point fo view in order of importance and then come to the conclusion that kane's character is never/partly revealed

the Hamlet question about guilt and its' influence on behaviour was sooooo easy to write Pt 2 on, due to the nature of the question, it didnt mention a characters name so you can inerpret the question in a myrid of different ways and mostly be right

the issues thing was funny, and we are the best people the write about it due to being half way between the let loose generation and the cotton wool generation, tho im not sure if you had to analayse the picture, i've had reports from both camps. personally i didnt, but whatever, each to their own, and the POV wirting was fairly easy, as long as you didnt take on some really obscure persona... ie serial killer/mass murderer....

in other news, apperantly it's my sisters birthday today... who knew these things happened, i havent got her anything but im sure mum'll cover for me as per usual

and on to the more exciting stuff that happened yesterday

I went with James and his family to see whimsical trycical, a musical act that performs in the fringe festivals. it was held in a mansion in ivanhoe, absolutely STUNNING, seriously. completely restored at a price tag of around $20 million all up... something else for me to aspire to

the house is just se perfect, and the evening was amazing, even if all my clothes stayed on. i think we might be getting better at that whole control thing...

to all those who have exams... if you dont know it now, you aren't gona know it, so you may as well party... but good luck if you need it, otherwise im keeing the luck for myself

All over?... NOT LIKELY!

Sat, 27 Oct 2007 05:31:49 GMT

so for the last few days I have had people saying to me, "it's all over for you isnt it, you're no longer a student, you have to get a job"

blah blah blah, WHATEVER! it's not over til it's over and that will be the 16th of nov when i have my last exam, geog.

so until then, shut up and take a number cos i have more important things to be doing!

and on the topic of exams... the study is killing me. actually, it's not that i do ANY study for it to be killing me, up the little i do end up doing it done grudgingly and with serious issues

if i EVER have to use the "right hand screw" rule for physics again after the exams, i might just screw them over, and i dont mean sex. and im not making the right hand srew rule up either, you use it to judge the direction of current and/or magnetic field lines running through/around a wire. AH, i bet you there ISNT an exams question on it now that i've learnt it...

so muck up was absolutely CRAZY, all the builders came down to the white gardens in the morning to watch us spray water and shaving cream all over the girls in yrs 7-11, you always think that it's annoying and you wont do it in yr12, but whatever, biggest power trip!! photos are up on facebook if anyone wants to go look, but if you're in on it this time, you'll already know that

then tuesday was breakfast, farewell assembly, validictory practise and revue. the breakfast was shit, and i honestly dont know WHY anyone would want to eat anything that early! farewell assembly was teary, the school captian for next year gave us a speach and then we left the hall via procession to "five hundred, twentyfive thousand, six hundred minutes" and we all cried outside in the foyer.

the practise was rather moving, they showed photos of us from year 7, from camps and from around the school as well as photos of the teachers when they were younger, all very amusing!

and finally the revue... AWESOME! best in 18 years according to some teachers! we did "a day in the life of a merton haller" and completely sterotyped everything and everybody. i think claire toner has a video which i'll try and get, but it might take a while

then on wednesday night was valedictory service, rather boring watching everyon else go up. but i got my book, "the art of war" which i've wanted to get for AGES and the supper in the hall after wasnt half bad

its been pretty busy in the last few days, but as i dont have school now things are moving so slowly! woe is me, i know

my first exam (along with a large proportion of yr 12s) is english on friday... yawn... whatever... thank god i have a concet to go to that night which james is taking me to!!

and does anyone have ideas for control... venus bay might be uncomfortable (?) if we dont get some... SOON!!!

ps, james you need a bigger shower

Not so innocent ramblings...

Sat, 13 Oct 2007 12:38:26 GMT

A quick note on bitching... do it like it matters... nothing pisses me off more then someone only doing it halfassed... to if you're in the locker room and you attempt to bitch, PLEASE, PLEASE do it properly. its not a crime, and it DOES release some stress

and on that note- i am not going to divluge any names from Ams' 18th that I alluded to in my last blog, not gona happen. if you know, good for you, if you dont, oh well, maybe you'll be fast enough to get on the gravy train next time :)

tody, i read the most amazing article ever... seriously, it changed my perspective on being up-yourself and completely arrogent... David Starkey was interview by and Age reporter, and it appeared in the Good Weekend today. He's a historian that specialises in Tudor England, from Henry VII to Elizabeth I. The Interview opens with "what was I going to say about whores? There's one now! She's had to pull her dress down to cover her bottom. They'll be in a day room" amazing... and totally indicative that most of the melbourne fashion is whorish

it goes on, apparently he is quoted as saying to an English governtment minister "don't patronise me, you little twit" and then back to whores "a woman al-ways has a certain power over a man who wants her" very true, now if you're a woman, you may have a certain difficulty over determining exactly which men want you, but i can attest to this fact.

on history, starkey has to say, "I invented this kind of history. I know that makes me sound arrogent, but there you are, I am" now THERE is someone I can aspire to...

I have the artical if anyone is desperate enough :P

ona completly different note, i am coming to the opinion that exam revision lectures are a waste of time, at least the geography one was. its fine if you havent done the work, havent read the study guide and dont have a teacher, but for those that enjoy the entitlements of going to a private school and thue, have those things... its kind of a let down.

but being the open-minded person everybody likes, im going to the math methods lecture tomorrow morning... that will make it 9 days at which i have to get up at 6.30, add up the next 5, and you end up with a very grumpy girl and it WILL be personal if you antagonise me...

today i also spent a significant amount of time sleeping, which i didnt really need, but whatever, my bed was very inviting. and for all you dirty minded people, it wasnt with james, thats for tomorrow night

which may or may not be something you wanted to read...

so in summary... if you have a choice, be arrogent and unpolagetic for it, and if you have to be aplagetic, then you have no business being arrogent in the first place

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMS!!!

Sun, 07 Oct 2007 04:57:05 GMT

SHOUT OUTS TO AMS COS SHES NOW 18!!!! (and we alllll know what that means dont we :P) well i probs dont, cos im not 18 but w/e

it was an awesome party, even if the bottle shop was CLOSED!!!! (WTF!?!?!?) but 7-11 was open and i got ice cream!!!

what else happened... well it turns out that it really hard to take off certain clothes when you're walking along, but i managed. and then i spent the whole night being airy and whatever. its acutally quite liberating!! but then very annoying when you end up on the floor with your dress almost round your waist...

and then finding out that the bathroom is actually in high demand isnt fun... and it turns out that cold hands arent nice :P

and al, im so sorry that you had to see the txt message i sent james... at least you didnt have to see the rest of them!! i joke, kinda, diandra knows what im on about

so there we heaps of fabulous looking people, including miss amelia, whos hair was SO PRETTY!! and then diandra, with that sparkly dress was sooo hot!!

and you definately smell nicer now james! so much better then citrus and ginsing...

the night was really loud, really fun and totally full of mucking around... throwing sushi into ryan and luke's mouths... and cvp "and we made everone look at us!!!" lol!!

then there was al, who 'cant dance' actually, to the spice girls... id be worried if he could!

sitting outside with jock and everyone just talking about stuff, as well as snaeking off to talk to people

and im so glad that they made out!!! (please, if you're in on it... you would be too!!!)

so who was getting on well with whom...

rose and ryan (dont know about that one...)

hannah and luke.... probs wont go anywhere but its always nice to meet new people at parties!!

jacqui and andrew .. JOKES!! i know shes got eyes on a certain football player!

and then there was the bitching!!

al and i bitching about people right in front of us; calling a certain girl a slut

talking with sof in the hall

all in all an awesome night.... if u remember somehting i forgot, put it up!!

study... groan

Thu, 27 Sep 2007 11:43:24 GMT

i offically HATE methods and physics, why i even chose to go into engineering is so far beyond me its not funny.... think about it.... marine engineer means that i have to look after the ships hull, the life support systems, the propulsion systems and the water/gas systems.... thats alot of electrical physics, which, btw, i SUCK at, and its also alot of work, which i HATE

it really begs the question: WHY DIDNT I DO A SICENCE DEGREE??? or even an ARTS degree. yes, its gotten that desperate, i would rather do an arts degree then and engineering degree.....

two things:

1. its not that i hate physics as a concept, i just hate the work, my math SUCKS so all my problems are wrong cos i cant do logs and indices

2. personally i think that arts degrees are the dumbest degree you can do... its unfortuante that all thoes who wana go to melb uni have to do a general degree, but lets face it, how many ppl just do arts cos its easy??? clearly its inferior to EVERY other degree

(let me point out here that this is my opinion and if ur gona comment with something like 'hey, im doing arts' then i will delete it.... my blog = my opinions.... if u have a problem then get ur own blog)

but back to my rant....

i should have chosen a more general career path... that way if i didnt get an 85 ENTER i could drop down a degree and not lose my job that it took 12 months to get... not to mention my scholarship!!! cos that would REALLY REALLY SUCK!!!

but i got an enter calculator thingy and im gona get around 90 even if i get a 10 in physics :P

which leads me to belive that im not so much hating physics, just worried that im not gona like being an engineer... and that would suck more cos im signing up for 9 years minimum....

ok, i think im done with that rant :P

lately there has benn lots of study done... ppl ask me what im up to besides that.... NOTHING!!! isnt that SAD!?!?! WHERE THE FUCK did my social life go!?!?!

i hate VCE

thank god im not actually at uni next yr!!

so today i draged james to the state library for a few hrs, he didnt really study, he was having to much fun trying (and partially succeding) to distract me

then we got nandos for lunch and met up with nick, luke, al and cvp cos they were gona go see rush hour... there was a very amusing walk up elizabeth st, and then they got tickets and i dissapeared to go do some more work... but not before my phone battery died :(

thankfully the nice man at the 3 store gave me a new one and i didnt have to cry over spilt milk :P

so i had tutor this evening, which i guess was ok, although i still feel really stupid sometimes (hence the rant on hating methods and physics)

and then finally i got to go home... but i had to stop at country road and buy a red tote bag :P

and things are disappearing in pairs... first my bankcards at the library today, they oviously were'nt stolen... i hat so much cash in my wallet it was ridiculous :P and then my rings between this morning and my shower... i could sware i took them off with my bracelet and my earrings but.... and now im missing them andim very depressed about it

i hope tomorrow the little elf who stole them leave them under my pillow...

so whats on for tomorrow... i have to cancle my cards, then go to the library for some more study, fun, *not*, then over to james' then i have to go do a session at karate cos i havent been in FOREVER (ok, so it was on saturday, but thats still ages away!!) and then back to james' for dinner and either a movie or something else...

i hope ppl arent studying TO hard!!!

HOLIDAYS!!!

Sat, 22 Sep 2007 06:48:18 GMT

well the holidays are finally here!!!! there were deff some points at which i didnt think i'd make it... some mornings it was just SO HARD to get up... esp when friday seems so far away!!

but its finally done, and tonight i have my first party!! not that much will happen (i have tutor tomorrow morning :( ) but the guy is turning 18, and some girls and i got him some derwints, a sketch pad (hes very arty) and a fingerpaint thing... who didnt love fingerpainting when they were little??? personally i thought the best bit was drawing on other people (the paper was never as much fun :P) and then that progressed to nasty words when i was older

the other good thing about being little was getting to watch cartoons... everybody remembers cheez tv!! its now toasted tv... WHAT THE HELL!?! talk about ruining the BEST show ever!!

so i have my nails painted and i have my shoes picked out... black strappy ones (mmmmm) and i have everything else.... i just need a top, maybe arron can help me with that :P

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!!!

i still have 2 weeks next term before classes end and swatvac starts, but im more excited for the HOLIDAYS!!!

BLACK BELT!!!! (and other news)

Mon, 10 Sep 2007 09:28:00 GMT

I GOT IT!!!! I GOT IT!!!! I GOT IT!!!!

incase i dont have your number... and i didnt send u a drink.... I GOT MY BLACK BELT!!!

so what does that mean... well shit loads, but its mostly karate stuff... (no, i will not hit you as hard as i can... what a stupid thing to ask in the first place...)

but i have a shiny (not really) Adidas belt in my bag... and a massive certificate to go with it!

mum says she going to frame it with the black belt they gave me and i can hang it somewhere (u rekon they have a spot on the submarine somewhere :P)

so sunday was pretty big, then back to james' for dinner... and ripping emotional bandaids SUCK!!!

what else... i got an A in my chem sac, the one with the banana, im still waiting on the other one, maybe by friday (??)

and last friday i had the methods sac on probability... can u say UNDERPREPARED!?! i think i did ok tho, i had photocopied down the part A sac and pasted it in with the answers so that i kinda had an i idea. but i screwed up the 'choose' questions... heres an exapmle, i have 10 lollies blah blah blah... (question info) and i choose 3, well, i'd choose all 10, but if you cant have them all... then HAVE THE CHOCOLATE!!!

so its fully study mode until exams not i think, apart from a few parties lined up in the holidays (AMS!!!)

and then exams... cant wait for them to be over!!

today i did my VTAC things, tho i dont intend on actually accepting any offers i get made...

i think thtas about it...

SACs, stuff and more stuff

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 05:51:14 GMT

its not put your hands up for detroit, its put your hands up if you want school to finish!!!

its almost over, yet its so far awar, the proportion of work to days left just isnt right!!

so this week i have a two part probability math sac and the second part of a food chem sac, neither of which im superexcited about... last week was the qualitative food chem sac, which was actually pretty easy, even if we did fudge the results of the expriment so the read what they were sposed to and not what actually happened (its not my fault that the banana solution evaporrated BEFORE it could turn RED!!!)

so i have a masive amount of work to do before friday, which is when both of the sacs are.

this week is also the sensei tommy morris course at karate, hes this supercool guy from scotland who comes out every year and teaches us stuff... and grades all the brown and black belts. today was the first day of the course, a session from 10-11.30... on a sunday morning... grrr

so it was ok, im looking forward to the other sessions more tho, and learning some applications for my kata and some self defence, and then grading on sunday next weekend (exactly ONE WEEK, me = very nervous....)

this week... im seriously hoping my laptop comes soon (tuesday is a good day for the universe, if it has a preference) which, all the girls at school know this, ive been looking forward to since roughly this time LAST week... but it'll come... i just cant wait. i had a dream about it last night (is that sad or what....)

so im going to go and do some actual homework, not pretending to :P

all catch you all soon!

Stuff that's been happening lately...

Sat, 01 Sep 2007 06:26:31 GMT

what have I been lately... not allot, actually that isn't exactly true.

on Friday the school held its festival of ideas day, which I gather to mean that since they beat all the creativity out of us during school, this day was to get it all back. so it started off with an ideas exchange, where Julian Burnside, Alan Atwood and two others came and spoke to us on a variety of topics. can I just say that if you ever have the opportunity to go and see Julian Burnside speak, GO! he is AMAZING!!!

then I went to a linguistics lecture, basically all about how words have changed since the creation of then English language. so that was really cool, esp as this is they type of stuff I'd be doing if I chant been pushed into the sciences.. last off was a performance of the Odyssey, not amazing, but really good, it was really moving. the whole day was good, except for the last bit... it was a chem lesson seeing as we missed our double... the most boring thing, even if it was necessary...

and then the best thing of the day happened... who was waiting at my locker when I came down... JAMES!! with flowers!!! how sweet is that?!?! I was totally surprised... then we went into the city to meet up with Ams, nick, Luke, al and CVP and wandered round the city for the afternoon before heading home. then dinner with at James' and home that night.

Saturday... karate and training in the morning, then a rushed shower before going off to Southland. James messaged me while I was up there and we caught up outside Myer. after wandering Southland for a bit, then getting a chocolate cookie James and I went back to Myer... to go lingerie shopping!! I found the cutest Mossimo torsolette, its white with black polka dots and these cute little buttons... though it turns out that its not really the most comfortable thing to wear... I had metal sticking into my ribs every time I slouched. now I understand the pain that girls had to endure when corsets were all the rage!!

so Saturday afternoon I went to some open houses with James' family, quite nice. James and I discussed the things that we wanted in a house, and it turns out that we have mostly the same wants and needs. kind of a random discussion, but whatever, it was fun.

Saturday night I babysat, quite fun, even if my phone did die and left me with no one to talk to... :( apparently I didn't miss much at Chris' party, though I'm sure those that went had fun. maybe next time someone holds a superhero party I'll go.

Sunday was supposed to be work day, but it ended up being a lazy day. I was playing happily on my laptop, then nick comes online and his MSN name is something like 'its such a nice day outside' so I opened the curtains... and it was! but then I decided that I was really to tired to be bothered going outside and enjoying it... so I closed the curtains as went back to playing on my laptop.

Sunday night James came over for dinner, we had hamburgers. I almost cut James' finger off while waving my bread knife around talking, silly me, so close and yet so far... I'll try harder next time I'm waving a knife around :P and the best thing of the weekend... beating the universe... turns out we got enough time and therefor we have decided that we did something right that weekend and that the universe loves us!

so what's happening this week.. well tonight I have soccer, so pumped!!! if we win tonight and then next week, we should make the finals! I'm also babysitting after, so more money. hopefully my new laptop will arrive sometime this week, I cant wait, I'm so excited!! on Wednesday I'm getting a new karate uniform for my black belt grading on the 9th of September.

can you tell I'm killing time here... I'm writing this in physics, and I'm thinking I should type slower so that I'm not writing as much for you all to read... but whatever, maybe your reading this in something just as boring and you want it to last so that you don't actually have to do any work... or maybe your putting off homework and you want this to last because your procrastinating!

whatever, I've exhausted my supply of noncontroversial gossip... everything else I have to say will be seriously mean or detrimental to relationships (I'm talking friendships here... I would never say something on my blog that would make my friends break up intentionally)

oh no, I have one more thing... when your on facebook, and you download the naughty gifts application, don't send someone a gift because it looks pretty or something... know what its alluding to!! for example: if you see the gift 'pearl necklace' and you think its a piece of jewelry, your wrong!!! *cough Emma cough*

so that's my last rant, I have 15 mins left of physics... yawn... iz xo

PS... found something else to do... spellcheck!!

confused...

Tue, 21 Aug 2007 12:11:00 GMT

im so confused... u know when u do someting, thinking its the right thing ang you'll be able to deal with the consequences and stuff, and then it all goes to shit, and for the next few days u run round going 'why why why' and banging ur head on some imaginable brick wall...

i think im beyond the brick wall, like, into the steel wall (or watever the next thing is)

and its seriously doing my head in, i dont know how to bring it up, i dont know how to stop thinking about it, i just cant deal with it

and now i feel indebeted (for a completely other reason) so its not my turn to be selfish, cos i hate selfish and needy people, they piss me off, and i really dont wana turn into one of them, but it stuff doesnt happen, fast... its gona be so me me me me that it wont be funny

and to add pressure to it all, im trying to say this while being really ambilgious, can u tell?? its not my turn

we all remember the final eps of season 2 of greys anatomy (and if u dont, shame on u!!!) how izzie and denny take turns (its all very sweet) and its just not my TURN!!!

i think im done...

FAME, parties and sleeping

Sat, 18 Aug 2007 11:49:40 GMT

I WANA LIVE FOREVER, SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHING, FAME!!!

it was good, the set was amazing and the lights were fantastic, a few glitches in the sound at the beginning but that got fixed.... then u have the actors...

flat at some points, amazing in others, and some of them cant even act....

over all the play was really good, and the audience seemed to enjoy it, but there was something missing...

after it finished, i helped laura hang the grad gowns (18 + 23... does NOT = 47... ARGH!!!) and then went to d2 for the prezzies to be given out. kinda boring, but i guess that happens when you know like 5 or 6 people in the ENTIRE school, let alone the play.

after that, the actors left on the party bus and i watched everyone pack up the set. in my defence, i didnt JUST sit there and look sexy, i held clarabell. seriously, i would have helped.... but with my minidress and heels... probs wouldnt have been much that i could do

then james drove laura, zabs, al and myself to his house where we picked up drinks and made lots of noise and then we drove to the party ("turn here, turn here!" "not that way" "i told you it was the other way")

the party was gay... almost in the literal sense... boys and girls in the spa and im pretty sure not all of it was g rated or single sex....

so the cake came out and i had some, turns out u shoudlnt put cake on the boot of lukes car and drive off (yes, thats and example of drunken behaviour....)

so we left, luke drove us to james' house, where stuff happened and i fell asleep... missed my curfew totally and got yelled at... oh well

so it turns out that my leave form for karate didnt go thru, so at 7 this morning i was in the shower... karate was okish, im so glad lianne turned up, sometimes being the only girl sucks!!!

but we did drills for most of it, which i love, even if i came out a little bruised

then went to southland with james, did some banking and saw Runny McJump... funny guy that one!!

then back to his house for pie (yummmmm) and some well need sleep (3hrs in 36 is SO NOT ENOUGH)

and now im home 'doing homework'

it looks like i'll get my laptop after all, mum has offered to buy it from me, and there will be enough money left over to put some aside for SHOES... or i could save it :P

anyhoo... i think its sleep time!!

Boys...

Sun, 12 Aug 2007 12:03:07 GMT

i think i have just learn't what every other girl figured out, BOYS ARE WIERD!!! and im not talking about the sports obsession or the toilet seat thing, im talking about guys who just cant see the line they just crossed!!!

and its like they wana colour the line so they you dont know its been crossed and BAMM you didnt even realise whats been happening till one day you pass into some frame of intimacy that shouldnt exist!

and i just dont know how to respond... you cant bring it to their attention cos then they'll know that they got caught out and it'll be even weirder and stuff.

and u cant follow thru with anything, cos lets face it, when u have a significant other in ur life AS IF you're gona put that in jeopardy. but u didnt know you were so at the same time you cant back away

and then at some stage, im wondering if maybe this is what its sposed to be like??

but that cant be true, because what i have is absolutely AMAZING and i could never, ever give that away for anything. so is this wrong?? of course it is, i mean, otherwise i wouldnt feel so guilty, but at the same it i realise i have nothing to be guilty about, because i never ment for this to happen

and twice before when someone said yes but no, it hurts so when that came guy comes back and thinks ur hot or watever, its a nice feeling, but i want that from the start, and i got that

which puts me back at square one...

and now im confused and at the same time sure that this isnt wat i want, but if it isnt then why havent i done anything to discourage it?

so help me out here... wat am i lacking as a person to have put myself in this position????

iz...

ITS TIME!!!

Sun, 05 Aug 2007 01:39:47 GMT

for what i dont quite know, but w/e

lets say its time for another blog, it works for me!! im blogging on this cool thing called windows live writer, which means i can blog offline and it'll automatically upload everything when im connected!!! cool huh??

so what new?? well i now have facebook, thats right, i caved after several emails telling me i needed to join to have friends or something like that. so i have it, and im seriously considering getting rid of myspace, which i dont use, and is "so, like, omg for yr 9s" direct quote from yr 10s on the tram

so i have it, and its kinda cool once u get passed the trauma of ur school not being listed (wtf?!) so i decided to sign up as a haileybury student untill they pull their fingers out and add mggs

so i got some friends then decided i needed to join the breast cancer foundation and then some other groups. its good fun over all, but i cant see myself spending to much time there... its distracting me from my homework :P

speaking of homework, i now have a bonefide study timetable, that im strictly NOT keeping to (dont tell me tutor) actually, im kinda keeping to it, i could just be doing heaps better. im at the stage where i know that even without an 85 enter, i'll still have a job and a university place in a few yrs through the navy or air force... so my motivation to study isnt as strong as all those who are counting on getting into melbourne or something

karate.... where to start... i sprained my toe again, this time i bent it outwards, like, leftly perpendicular to my foot (its my right big toe) and then yesterday i think i did something to it again. it has a nice ring of purple brusing around the joints and it hurts to bend

grading is on the 9th of sept for my black belt... so put it in ur diaries ppl, i want good luck messages!!! cos im really gonna need them

and james needs good luck messages for his computer, his electrons are holding a rebellion, staged by google... cos he cheated on his computer with his new laptop... its like an AI version of the bold and the beautiful!!!

untill next time

week so far

Mon, 23 Jul 2007 12:15:18 GMT

been trying to blog for awhile now, and nothing been coming out... im thinking its all fixed now tho...LOL!

so harry potter came out... im not as interested, i have MUCH better things to be doing

never-the-less, i got the book, and the owl, and its sitting on my bedside table... only half finished

what else is news.... i got a "very impressed" from my math teacher, which is SUCH an improvement from the fail i got last yr (ok, so it wasnt a fail, but i was damn close!!)

also doing COWs in english (craft of writing, we're not having actual cows) and we got given a prompt... blood... ok strange, but thats english teachers for you...

so what do i write about?? breaking some girls nose in a fight at karate (ok, so i may have embllished it abit) and then i got to read it out...that was interesting, wasnt it??

tonight i had an ADFA thing, Brigadire Dawson and the rector of UNSW came to talk to us about life at ADFA... it was a waste of time, its stuff i had to know for my interviews in april, so i was incredably bored

but they had nibbles, like good stuff, not the crap that the school calls food

i also talked to my officer about when they are coming to the school to present me with my education award, and he said about september... the school so doesnt want to do it, do u think its cos its not a very girly thing??

in other news... nas on saturday, spent 7hrs waiting for my fight... waste of my day, and then i lost first round... but its hard to be shit when ur good, isnt it??

babysat on saturday night, got myself an easy $50... gona have to save it tho, cos i have to pay for my black belt gradings... $350, thats a lotof money for a black belt

im also talking (or in talks, which ever u prefer) with my parents over me getting a double bed (this has nothing to do with me having a boyfriend)

im 17, and DAMM IT, i want to sleep in a double bed thats MINE before i leave... im gona have a cramped single for then next 10yrs almost.... so its understandable if i want a double now, isnt it?!?!

i have my sheets picked out and everything, red wine coloured (that wont clash at all with the mushroom pink curtians, will it) (do u think i have look at the mushroom curtians and get high :P)

nothing else as far as i can think of except WHENS THE WEEKEND!?!?!?

check this out btw: http://youtube.com/watch?v=--I3prPufO8

its super awesome matrix ping pong...

procrastination

Mon, 16 Jul 2007 02:10:58 GMT

this is me doing homework... looking like im doing homework.... not really doing homework at all

maybe we can call it english cos im writing stuff down in a creative form?? didnt think so....

so on saturday night sof invited me, james, ams and nick over (acutally, more ppl were invited eg luke, ryan, al, yas, diandra... but they either couldnt come or didnt check their phones....)

and although it was small it was really fun!!

i went over to james' house and gave him a present... which im not gona spill the details about on my blog... u'll have to ask me, and then we walked to the train station. train was ages away so we went to the bottle shop and they didnt have and vodka twists!!! so sad!! so i had to settle for crusiers... but they were passionfruit... yum!!

then we caught the train and tram to sofs and she picked us upin her car

got back to hers and waited for nick and ams to rock up

they arrived and then it got fun!!

james had his massive bottle of beer which he got for his birthday (i cant remember who from...) and then sof pulled out the bottle of vodka that she and ams had brought at the beach.

she poured a shot and left it and no one wanted to drink it.... well i did when that werent looking (hehe) and everyone got confused over where it had gone... except i think my guitly smile gave it away.... oops my bad

so we tried to play poker... didnt last to long... then we all migrated to the couch and watched step up, well they watched it... i was doing other things

i remember gummy bears, and sof doesnt like the green ones, lol

so ams dropped us off at south yarra station and james and i went back to his place... for an hour

and then my mother rocked up early.... NOT HAPPY!!!! NOT HAPPY AT ALL!!!!

and no im not ok... i WASNT FINISHED!!!!!!!!!

so i ended on a good note... just not a great note, but oh well....

back to school tomorrow.. yawn! i have everything organised... and no work done, i think im setting myself up for failure!!

blog ya later, xx

back!!!

Sat, 14 Jul 2007 03:29:01 GMT

just back from canberra

it was FREEZING!!!!! cept for the sunny days... which were vastly out numbered by the rainy ones

actually, it wasnt that it rained, just that even when it was sunny, it was so COLD!!!

but enough of that, god help me when im reduced to taking about the weather on my blog!!!!

last weekend i compeated at the victorian open, its a karate comp held this time every yr, just so you know ur the best in ur division

it turns out i wuld be the best IF i was compeating nationally this yr, but im NOT!!! (we'll forget to mention that i would have been the only on in my division... and therefore the best!!!)

so i got a silver in team sparring, and a gold in my wieght group (yes, i weighed in!!!!). had to fight against some NAS princess, i dont think she'd ever been hit in her life!!! i won that fight 8-6, which isnt great but considering i havent seriously since nationals in august last yr, i thought i did ok

the left the state netball and hockey center for albury, which is where my grandparents on my mums side live... the over night stay was so boring!!!

its not that i dont love them, but they are so boring!!!

thn drove up to canberra, which is where all the relavtive on my dads side live. you'd think that cos ur in another city u'd do all the touristly things... well, NOT ME!!!

i spen the majority of the 3 days in front of my cousins WIDE screen TV watching foxtel... they had EVERY SINGE CHANNEL!!!

and i have come to love top model... god help me!!!

went to the war memorial, i love that place, its so.... reflective. and even tho you can go and see all the displays, my favourite place is the honor roll and the tomb of the unknown soldier

then the drive back to albury on thursday and home on friday

and i finally got my maccas!!!!

then last night, after i got home, i met james at southland and we went shopping!!!!!!

went to myer and got 5 new tops, al different colours,while the sale was on, then to sportsgirl where i got a black hand bag!!!

and i also got my black boots re-heeled, so its like getting a new pair of shoes!!

this morning was karate, parent-child classes.... YAWN!!!! and then sparring with the guys, OUCH!!! i think i broke my toe, but if i can squash it into a pair of heels then im gona say its fine lol

also scored an invite to this thing sof is having tonight, should be fun

i'll tell you all about it later!!!

is counting down a good idea??

Finally It's Started

All over?... NOT LIKELY!

so for the last few days I have had people saying to me, "it's all over for you isnt it, you're no longer a student, you have to get a job"

blah blah blah, WHATEVER! it's not over til it's over and that will be the 16th of nov when i have my last exam, geog.

so until then, shut up and take a number cos i have more important things to be doing!

and on the topic of exams... the study is killing me. actually, it's not that i do ANY study for it to be killing me, up the little i do end up doing it done grudgingly and with serious issues

the practise was rather moving, they showed photos of us from year 7, from camps and from around the school as well as photos of the teachers when they were younger, all very amusing!

and finally the revue... AWESOME! best in 18 years according to some teachers! we did "a day in the life of a merton haller" and completely sterotyped everything and everybody. i think claire toner has a video which i'll try and get, but it might take a while

then on wednesday night was valedictory service, rather boring watching everyon else go up. but i got my book, "the art of war" which i've wanted to get for AGES and the supper in the hall after wasnt half bad

its been pretty busy in the last few days, but as i dont have school now things are moving so slowly! woe is me, i know

my first exam (along with a large proportion of yr 12s) is english on friday... yawn... whatever... thank god i have a concet to go to that night which james is taking me to!!

and does anyone have ideas for control... venus bay might be uncomfortable (?) if we dont get some... SOON!!!

izi xx

ps, james you need a bigger shower

Not so innocent ramblings...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMS!!!

study... *groan*

HOLIDAYS!!!

well the holidays are finally here!!!! there were deff some points at which i didnt think i'd make it... some mornings it was just SO HARD to get up... esp when friday seems so far away!!

the other good thing about being little was getting to watch cartoons... everybody remembers cheez tv!! its now toasted tv... WHAT THE HELL!?! talk about ruining the BEST show ever!!

so i have my nails painted and i have my shoes picked out... black strappy ones (mmmmm) and i have everything else.... i just need a top, maybe arron can help me with that :P
