Non-class Programs

So, Today was an interesting, out-of-the-ordinary day. In the morning we did Aqua Aerobics (erh. not great. was not in the mood for swimming. but then again, i never am..) and then Self Defence. :D It was fun. He was telling us how our best defence weapon is our brain. And our body weapons are only our last resort. Anyways, we had to say 'KIAI' as we threw our kicks and palms (they weren't punches). And now I reeeally want to try it on an actual person.. Hip Hop was fun too. :D And finally, we went to an Elderly Home to entertain them for about half an hour. As a form. We did the Grinch! And sang Christmas Carols. My heart tweaked slightly when I saw them. They looked so old and vulnerable.. At least we brought a smile to a few here and there. I don't want to grow old. o.o Hey, it's a 'what happened' post, instead of a 'thinking too much' post. I used to have a lot more 'what happened' posts compared to 'thinking too much' posts. Wonder what changed.. TimTan

Thank God You're Here

Today, Was another averagely good-ish day. We watched She's the man in English. And erm. Yeah. In assembly, (our first in ages. not that I care that much) Mr Argall mentioned something about Thank God You're Here. I don't remember much, but I just wanna say. THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE! That includes everyone in my life who has, in any stage, made me smile/laugh/feel better/have the fuzzy warm feeling inside/happy/feel loved etc. Or just been there for me. You know who you are. xP Oh, I was interviewed today for an inter school scholarship. I was nervous, but I felt better when I found out it was just 3 friendly, smiley old ladies who were PLC old collegians. They asked about Dame Nelly Melba. I failed. I said she was some plane person but she was an opera singer. I KNEW THAT. I just couldn't remember it. Idk why. Don't ask. Oh. Last Friday, we had a flute day. Which was fun. OMG. I went so high during the masterclass type thing. 2 cupcakes, carrot cake with ICING and banana cake. Hmmm. Not so good for me. But OH so delicious. I apologize for lack of photos. Melissa and Cynthia looked at me weirdly because I kept randomly doing random things. :P Life goes on. Oh nice line. I like that line. I shall repeat it. Life goes on. TimTan

Spring 2010

Pinch, punch, first day of the month. So that was yesterday. But whatever.. I didn't have time to blog. Anyway, so it was the first day of spring, though it was rainy and didn't look like it. Today was more like spring. Sunny blue, almost cloudless sky. What happened? Well, it was just a normal Wednesday at school. Jessie dragged me to Anime Club, but something didn't work. We ended up spending the rest of lunch there anyways. Lulu shared some of her blood orange. Ohmygosh it was like. purple. and the juice was like. purply red. like blood. It tasted like a normal orange, but had a slight berry flavour. It was interesting. :P Today was also a normal good-ish okay day. Lunch was fun. Bahhaha. Jessie, Isabel and I (awesome grammar xD) looked like hobos because were were huddling around the noodle cup Christina gave us because she didn't want it anymore. We were acting like Youngies again! lol. There was no Melba today. I got home and played MapleStory with Jessie. hahah. It was fun. Shall recuit more maple members. (viv is nearly converted) Erica

20th August 2010 (Thursday)

Today, I woke up and ate cereal and toast with avocados. Then, I went to school early for flute group. Hmm.. The rest of classes were just. Average and normal. At recess though, Crystal gave me a dumpling, and then brownie from Rochelle (cos we did awesomely in the singing competition. not really.) and then some pizza scroll from Viv because she was being generous. :D thx viv. But the highlight really was lunchtime. I was supposed to go to Art but Ms Snell wasn't there so I cbs. I've already wasted like 3 of my precious lunchtimes doing art. And I have to do it again tmrw. Gah. Anyway, I was eating lunch with my friends. Which is usually fun enough. We talk about the randomest things. BUT, after buying a packet of chips (not me. Jessie), we decided to go for a walk. We went to the area we used to spend our year 7 lunchtimes. And played the balancing game on this wood bit jutting out. Like a mini fence. Anyway, we took turns going the whole way while the others went crazy screaming and jumping up and down trying to get the person balancing to fall off. I love how we all still have that bit of kid inside. I kinda feel sorry for all those who grew up so fast and don't have a chance to do all this because they're too busy with how they look etc. After school, and Melba, Mum drove me to Mt waverley village so I could interview people for a Geography project. I managed to get 2 people, but others just shooed me off or said they were busy. I got a little intimidated after a while, and gave up... People can be very intimidating even though they don't mean it. So I made myself a promise, if, when I'm old/older, and a young girl comes with some survey for school, I'll put on a big smile and answer as well as I can even though I'm in a bad mood or whtever. Smiling at a good-ish day. Interesting. Erica

A Day in the Life of ME

See, Told you so. About the sudden BAM of crazy posting. Okay, 3 isn't that many. But still. Today, we had a Leadership voting thing replacing form assembly. We had to vote. I only knew 3 people on the Year 11 girls' list. So, I figured I would vote for Tess. Because I think she would be a good one. And it would be so cool! I could like, be like, okay, if you organize a free sausage sizzle/pancake day, I'll do the dishes tomorrow. Then, we had PE. Bec and I are Captains of our soccer team (Bout 7 ppl..) I got chosen because I'm in a soccer team. But it's kinda silly, because I'm pretty much the worst one on the team. Oh well. Anyway, we just did random drills. Fun. I got mud all over me. :D Oooh, Lunch. Often the highlight of my day. I had a yummy croissant sandwich. I went to the library (dragging Jessie, yes we do that a lot. Drag people to places) and printed my GEOGRAPHY hw. Then, Jessie made me watch the Asylum 626 trailer. She turned faced the computer toward me and got me to commentate on what was happening. So she would know, without having to go through the mental trauma. OMGSH! It was scaaary. And soundless. Imagine how much worse it would be if it had sound... I only watched like bits of it, cos I kept chickening out and turning away. baha. Once, I turned my head, and Jessie PUSHED IT BACK. omgsh. so mean. IF I GET NIGHTMARES TODAY IT IS JESSIE'S FAULT! BUT, I'm looking forward to doing the actual game at Jessie's b'day. At the end of school, our usual walking home routine got muddled a little. Here's what happened: 1. Vicky dragged me to music. (told you we do that heaps) 2. Ran to Jessie's locker. Did not find her. 3. Ran to my locker. Passed Myura who told me Jessie and stuff was waiting at my locker. 4. Saw no one at locker. cbs. Decided to walk alone. 5. Mobile rang. It was Isabel. They were at my locker... 6. Meet after buses, in front of PE centre. Laughs. 7. Walk to Parer Street as per usual. 8. See my car. Isabel's car is behind. Decide to drive alongside each other. 9. Plan failed. Mum was busy talking and I was like gogogo. But no. Isabel's car was already 2 cars ahead... 10. Mobile rings. Probs Isabel. Mobile is in my schoolbag in the boot. 11. Slaps head and mentally says sorry to Isabel. Hahaha. My life is average. Not. It's awesome. :) Really good bits and really bad bits. I guess they evened out? o.o Listening to Jonathan playing maplestory. He's in Perion, I think. Judging by the music. Erica
