Starting New

Okay! I was really procrastinating to write or in other words type. Maybe because nothing really major happened since, that you the reader would get a laugh or a kick out of. I've been thinking lately and I've decided I want a fresh new theme or "approach" to my blog. No, that does not mean I'm changing my blog address but it does mean I'm gonna get myself a new layout. I've had an interest in fashion lately. Going shopping, checking trends and styles and I've even been sketching out and drawing my own dress. Maybe I should make a fashion blog? I won't be able to hold up to blog's at once, considering my "Oh so tiresome" and spontaneous lifestyle. I need a change. I'm sure you do aswell. So I've decided to just jam pack this blog with everything on my mind. I'll start adding images, linkage and whatever junk I can find. Hopefully I'll update my video section with some good for you to watch. Oh, yeah, an you know what? I'm over Twilight now. I've got better things to do than dream about Edward Cullen, maybe I've over that "hormonal phase". I don't know why but i keep saying "harmones" rather than "hormones" and my friends just crack up. I'm going to add more colour into my blog, starting from NOW!

Starting School

I stopped blogging for the summer. Summer vacation was hot, luckily there's always the comfort of air conditioning. Basically my summer was spent lazing around and finding a new hobby to do. I actually managed to finish a 2000 piece puzzle which was hiding in one of the big boxes people usually have one the very top of a shelf or wardrobe. I even had so much time to waste that I made a rubber band ball. Worth it though, their really unique looking and very bouncy. Unfortunately the other half of my holidays was mostly spent on buying my needs like sports shoes and school supplies and also getting everything arranged and ready, unfortunately.
I watched a lot of tennis during the holidays including the Medibank International and the Australian Open and since tennis took a break during summer holidays it made me a little desperate to play again.


School's just started and I still feel that I'm still floating in the middle of 2008, hopefully the date kicks in soon enough. So since the first week of school's kicked in all the teacher's start from basic revision to alter our brains from solid to malleable and this means an easy start which is good but they also through in the catch of making title pages. I don't mind creating my visual design title page but did they really have to make us do title pages for geography and science and every other subject as well. I think my science teacher went overboard he gave us a book with an exact number of pages to go and purchase and instructed us that we must do the following because it counts for twenty marks:
1. Have a label with the everything written on the the blackboard, make sure you do it exactly the same as written with the exception of you name.
2. Draw a title page with this exact heading.
3. The title page must be on the first page and then the second page must be left blank.
4. Make sure that the label is stuck on the front of your book.
5. Your book must be covered in contact.
6. (Last of all) Your label must also be covered.
He concluded with: "Now class, you MUST have ALL of this done or you will lose marks". Jeez, great way to start the first lesson sir. I had to keep writing all this and more in my organizer to not lose those 20 marks. It's hard enough covering a book with contact trying not create air bubbles regardless of covering the label as well. I'll be extra cautious with this to even alter any word that he may have captialized on the board.
So now, I've chosen my electives and I've already had a taste of all three: Commerce, Visual Design and Drama. Commerce probably the most boring out of them all but I'll get through that because I've got my best friend with me. Drama, I think is very practical which I enjoy but there also seems to be writing involved and that is to write a drama journal. A drama journal is basically a diary focusing on drama, we have to write about what we have done in drama for that day and apparently (as the teacher stated) we could also write about how we got the "shits" from someone during classes. Wow! Have you heard a teacher say "shits". Now it finally brings me to my final subject that I chose called Visual Design. Many probably haven't heard it before but basically the subject has a broad view of design in a very commercial way. So that means that the subject is very open and at one point we'll be doing film and at another we'll be interior designing.
