first day.

oh my god.

like, seriously guise.

first day of school was not as terrible as i expected, but i always expect the worst anyway...that way i'm never disappointed, right? but whatever.

• science = learning about pregnancy/ecosystems
• elective history = booklets
• sport = power walking. power walking was fun (just walking around centennial park with glo and daph)
• english = watching gone with the wind
• maths = BORING!

unfortunately our duke of ed log is due tomorrow and so is our english creative writing task. i need to fix up mine a bit, but i still haven't started on my log. boohoo. i hope we're allowed to be very informal.

also, we got to wear our senior skirts for the first time today! :O daphne doesn't really like them that much, but i don't really mind them, except for the rolling up thingie (but it's still really loose when i roll the waist). it is also kinda long and yeah. i'll get used to it eventually though (i hope).

and our next duke of ed walk is this thursday & friday. :( 6km on the first day and then 16km on the second day. WHY!? i have work on saturday and i CANNOT skip another week. my legs will be sore and my feet will be swollen, like last time...

i have to go now, a new episode of the mentalist is on now, and i also need to go and do some homework.

see y'all laters!

I'm hungry

Well obviously I'm hungry. I'm in a constant state of hunger or something. It's weird and it's stupid.

Anyway, time to blog about the dreaded Duke of Ed.

Yeah, I slept on a rock and heard a certain girl's voice ALLLLLLL night which was quite irritating, but the walk itself was decent enough and I can't believe there's another one during the first week back of Term Four. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Oh, and to the other members of Jarg'd - DUKE OF ED NOTES AND REFLECTION/LOG THINGS ABOUT THE PRELIM. WALK ARE TO BE BACK BY THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL BY THE LATEST.

And so I went home and I ate like a crazy maniac and I also ate at Rachel's house like a semi-crazy maniac cause it'd be rude if I just sat down and ate like a lunatic and depleted all of Rachel's family's food supply.

I was THAT hungry. Oh, and my legs were like jelloid and I was about to collapse into this little squiggly contortionist kind of thing but I kind of couldn't because.. I dunno. I think it's cause:

- I'm unflexible
- and so are my bones.

Anyway. My maths class was meant to have a test today, but it was postponed for next term. And Michelle drew on my arm and Ms Mas chucked a little GRAH WHAT THE HECK IS THIS kinda thingy and I had to go wash my arm with soap in the bathroom but that didn't work, so Ms Mas took me to the maths staffroom and gave me a sponge and fully scrubbed my arm and it hurt like heck. Oh, and it was itchy so then I just used the not-so-itchy side. Which was still itchy, gosh-dammit!

And I'm cutting my hair on Saturday and I'm cutting it pretty short. Mum wanted me to cut it short like a pixie cut but I kinda negotiated with her cause it'd be really weird on me. So I told her that I'll cut it short, but not overly short like a pixie haircut. I think she's cool with that. And so, she's taking me to the hairdresser for the first time in my life! Gosh, this is exciting. Except that whenever I ask people if hairdressers are scary, they say they're worse than Jigsaw. That kinda freaks me out. They're actually scarier than Jigsaw, or they're trolling. I'm seriously hoping it's the latter.

And it's the last week of tunics in our lives iuashfiuhasiufhiaushfiuasf! We'll never be juniors again and we'll never pass off as year 7's anymore! I'm kinda happy about being out of this stupid insulating hot potato sack but it makes me feel kinda nostalgic. Oh well, I'll make new memories out of the senior skirt. Which is annoying cause it's loose. And there are no belt holes. So I have to roll it up once just to make it more comfortable and tighter. Sometimes, I think that the skirt is merely the skimpier, smaller and shorter version of the potato sack.

Oh, and AzA, I dare you to roll your skirt up so it's super high for a DAY. That'll be amusing..

I look like I have an abnormal hip growth due to the stuff I keep in my pocket.

And I failed the sudoku yesterday, I was pretty upset about that. I DIED AND IT WAS SAD.

Oh and tomorrow's Thursday, but today felt so much like a Thursday, I think I'm deluding myself into thinking that tomorrow will be Friday (and the last day of school and those darned potato sacks).

I keep sleeping in geography, I swear I'm sleeping every lesson. I just hope I won't fail my yearlies and I'll continue sleeping. Haha nah, I've only been sleeping through presentations and movies. We were watching Twister and Mr Crilley had the most random (or is it randomest?) commentary. He commented on my sleeping. Then he woke me up. That was sad.

WHY IS THIS BLOG POST SO LONG I NORMALLY WRITE SHORT ONES

Oh and. I'll share a video for you all. I promise it's not screamo. I'll put it at the end or something. If that works. Actually, I don't know how to do this.. But I'll just link then.

I'm obsessed with alternate metal/screamo at the moment. Especially Deftones and Amity Affliction. OOOOOOOOOOOOH. And they're pretty modern. I'm getting with the timeeeeeees.

Urgh I'm so hungry. I'm going to help mum make dinner so I get even more hungry and then I'll eat like a cannibalistic wolf. Oh yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah.

Anyway, here's the link for the random song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqVKvRTmbj0

Once again, I promise it's not screamo. It's The Lost Sheep by Adrian Munsey. There's a string quartet backing up a guy who's singing 'baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa' for the whole song. It's really quite emotional. And funny. The video just makes the whole thing funny.

Anyway!

GOODBYE FOR NOW!

-bloo

procrastination

i want some milo.

oh yes and the maths test was hard.

goodbye.

excuse me?

"Here I am, minding my own business, when someone decides to throw a book at me!" -- Moaning Myrtle

Exactly the same thing happened to me. Except it was on tumblr. And it was a face.

I am SO ANNOYED right now at inconsiderate idiots who decide to post pictures of Scream masks and Jigsaw Killers on their tumblrs! What gives them the right to totally freak the heck out of an innocent passerby?!

This has actually happened to me several times in the past few weeks. I'm really upset, actually. HAVE SOME CONSIDERATION, PEOPLE! Every time I see Jigsaw or Ghostface, I get this really cold feeling down my back and I totally freeze up. It destroys me. And then my brain starts going through a list of all the horror movies I've seen, and I get freaked out and can't turn the light off when I go to bed.

Still, if we ever have a movie night in the future, I wouldn't mind watching the Saw movies. Or even the Scream movies. When I was watching Saw 1 and 2, though, I had to cover my eyes every time his mask was onscreen. It just fudges with my head.

Don't get me started on Ghostface. The other day, I was looking at a photo of Elvire yawning, and then I saw a shocking resemblance to Ghostface!!!! Imagine my horror!!! I got really freaked out of course, because her yawning mouth looked just like Ghostface's and her eyes were like, black dots, and that was scary.

I know I should face my fear and all that, but... yeah. No thank you.

I'm not a fan of the Friday the 13th mask either. And of course, Freddy Krueger's face is insanely freaky. Sometimes after I wash my hair and it's all in my face and I look in the mirror, I get scared as well because I look like the girl from The Ring. With shorter hair.

So the people who freak me out:
Jigsaw from Saw
Ghostface from Scream
Freddy Krueger from The Nightmare on Elm Street
The Ring girl
Jason from Friday the 13th
Bathilda Bagshot from Harry Potter

and... many more, who I can't remember right now.
