Ok so Mary MacKillop is soon to become the first Australian Saint.
The other day on the radio I heard a tiny snippet of a report about the process. The presenter said, “her second miracle”. I was a little confused so I went and did some homework and it seems that to be named a Saint you must have performed three miracles. Now, for the record I am Catholic so this should probably make...
just everything
have had an amazing couple of weeks and can safely conclude that:
I want to be at the beach/in the sun/outside all day, every day
my sleep-wake cycle is royally screwed
having people around makes everything better, most of the time…
I should have been more organised when it counted
on the other hand, I’m not so sure about whether I should go ahead with plans that come to mind in...
wow
just looked in my wallet. where did all my cash go??? thanks schoolies.
in other news: have had one day (night, really) of sleep and leave again tomorrow morning for a week of exercise, which will no doubt kill me. but THEN the 3 days that i’ve all been waiting an age for will arrive and life will be sweet once again.
only afterwards might I decide to acknowledge that it’s less than...

sorry for being late to the party, but i think this has just set in.
i am about to spend three months doing whatever the hell i want!!!
i may not be 18 yet (or have knowledge of anyone who is and looks vaguely enough like me) and i may not be able to see certain people for nearly a month but none of this matters, because there are simply rainbows (oh yes, that’s a measure now) of things...
overwhelmed
there are just too many things to say right now and I have nowhere near enough energy to extract them from my mind, which I feel resembles this at the moment:
ps. I love it, but for practicality’s sake, I hope the rain clears up for tomorrow

lol. no shit Sherlock.
at least my subconscious is having fun
Last night I had a SICK-AS dream that me and Jessy made friends with Lady Gaga and were chillin’ with her for a day.
clearly i’m good at this whole serious about my studies thing…
is seeing live music the night before the night before my last exams still ok?
In reference to my new fave radio station:
I am listening to country music again. the type where you can’t quite understand what the singer is mumbling about, you know, the good kind :)
(wizard) angst
ok summer heat, this is not cool. during the day I shut you out, and it’s ok because I just catch glimpses of sun out the window, and can control the urge to run screaming from the house and sunbake in the middle of the road.
BUT when you come creeping in at night time, when my brain is struggling enough as it is thankyou, I really get pissed off. I won’t be able to sleep and...

i couldn’t study this morning thinking about all the things that were just waiting for me down in south melb.
it was heavenly. but alot of the good stuff was gone before we got there which was like an hour and a half after it started, llaamme.
it was cheap too, like by the end all shoes were $2...
new favourite radio station:
Triple R :)
This morning Mum and I listened to it over breakfast. They were playing country music and I could sing along to three of the songs. Then later in the morning they went from country, to talking about squid and fishing, appropriately playing “Six months in a leaky boat”. Again, I sang along.
Don’t judge me.

ahhhhhhhhhh FREAK OUT.
Despite not having to do maths again for a long time, my calculator has been used to work out the scores on exams I can afford to get and still make prereqs / it into my first pref course, like A BAJILLION TIMES in the past few days.
I hate not knowing how I’ve done, not even having a feeling of contentment about any of the papers I’ve done AND that even right at the end, all...

Unlike Macbeth you don’t have to worry about ‘Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow/ creep[ing] in this petty pace from day to day/ To the last IB commentary you will write.’. -apologies to the great man- Shakespeare that is.

it's 36 degrees outside!!
you know how i know that?
because i looked it up on the internet. not because i’m out there enjoying the sunshine.
eff you exams, go away!!!

sometimes I wish that I could just audition for Australian Idol, get chosen, spend the next few years of my life being a singer then finally end up doing deodorant ads like Ricki Lee.
but seriously.
I THINK I LOVE YOU - remake.

read the Tomorrow When the War Began books by John Marsden? Anyway I read them sometime around grade 4/5/6 and they were awesome. I just read that they’re making a movie of the first one which comes out next year and they’ve cast the main character as the chick who played Rachel in neighbours!! way to make a great book into a crap movie.
I just made my dad a Movember profile page on the website, he’s been growin’ it for like a week. So now he can raise some sweet mullah (for uncle ricko) for men’s health. :D

what’s under my symbolic exam-period black nail polish?

I have struggled to understand you for 2 whole years. I’m pretty sure you’ve made me fail tests before. SO having just spent the first half of the day on organic chem, I just wanted to inform you that I AM COMING TO GET YOU. And if you’re not on the exam in the end, then guess what? I win anyway. Because I’ll never have to look at you again.
Suck...
859???
so looking at the file our chem teacher gave us (which has the past papers from 1998 - 2008 on it), there are 859 pages!!!!!! even when you think about printing two pages per sheet, and going double sided, that’s still 214 sheets of paper….and goodness knows how much ink.
I was considering setting out on an epic mission to print some of it at home, but not after doing the maths! I...

So as a procrastination technique in late term 3. Edward needed to write an essay for his drama class about a stage director. I decided that I would write it for him, but on a Boosh character called ‘Jurgen Haabermaaster”.
He got it back today. I got a B+
The best part was that I filled the essay with 100% bullshit. And talked about how Jurgen Haabermaaster led a number of cults and...

was just sitting here and thinking about what it will feel like to be about to start an exam, knowing that it is the last chance i’ll get to do well in that subject…
whilst doing so, i felt a noticable increase in my heart rate…
this is actually terrifying!! :(
textin'
This morning I texted my Chem teacher pretty much just freaking out and asking her a question, but I used all proper spelling and punctuation.
she replied just before with
” U r right “
hahahahaha probably the highlight of my day.
bonkers
i am SO sick of hearing that song on the radio!! ahh!! and like paramore and other equally crap music. the only reason i don’t just flip right over to gold 104 is that i can’t bring myself to listen to their uber-lame presenters all day long, and they have heaps of ads. SOMEONE MAKE A GOLD 104 WITH NO ADS OR PRESENTERS
yeah so i’m enjoying my study time, obviously.
