Hey everyone,

It's been forever since i've wrote in this blog, yet again. I seeem to have this habit of stopping then starting for a bit then stopping again...sorry about that.

Well the title says it all, it is officially spring! WOOHOO, but to me the weather feels like it's just the starting of winter. It's been raining almost non-stop for the past few days.

Last week, we just had the Senior concerts, wooooh. It was awesome! All the orchestras and ensembles were Pro as! They poned. I performed too, i was in the Senior Guitar ensemble and the Jazz band. It was really fun, but the funnest bit was going up to the light box and listening to James curse at Mr Coy XDD

Well 3 weeks till the end of school and I can't wait! I have a major maths test next Friday, and like 3 assignments to finish in 2 weeks, and not to mention all the music practice i have to do, for the Junior concerts coming up next term.

So busy!! ARGGHH, oh well. HOPEFULLY i will be good and not forget to write back in!

Bye bye ^^

Hey everyone, check the last date i wrote in, it was practically at the beginning of the month! and its 2 weeks later and it's close to the end of the month, what is this! Gosh life is flying by! and the term is nearly over. Yes, an 11 week term just flew past!

Well i've been pretty busy in the last 2 weeks, had a major science exam and a major english exam. Oh and a photography assignment due, and this week i have a major maths exam on friday, and tomorrow a jap quiz. I hate the begginning and end of terms cause that's when all the teachers give their assignments and tests and it all gets very congested...have you ever realised studying is a mixer of the words Student + Dying = Studying sad isn't it...

There's not really much to talk about, just the fact that the holidays are coming up and i'm so phyched but no so phyched cause i'll be away from my friends...

Anyway this was a short post and i am one of the few short posts in the entire blog, so savour it while it lasts!

Well hello again, nothing much really happend on Wednesday, i had English Extension in the morning and we got to use the macbooks! I had never used the macbooks in school before, actually i've never used a macbook before. It was for our reviews, our task is to write a review on a book we've read and then make a podcast out of it.

Then i when school actually started, because english extension was a before school thing, i had a double english, how lovely after english extension...but english was ok, cause we just watched A Current Affair and analysed the video.

After english i had science, and TADAA! I didn't have a test waiting for me in science. WOOOPPEEEE, but the only reason why we didnt have a test is because he wanted to tell us how to do it! Well news flash for him, he should've helped us BEFORE he gave us 2 tests GEEEZZ! So yeah, he pretty much told us that we had to learn our valency's otherwise we were practically doomed in his class.

So after recess i had maths, we had a releif who was from the home economics department, how lame, getting a home ec. teacher to come teach maths extension...it was quite funny though, Katja's piece of paper got drawn on, and had this "depressed emo" looking thing on it XD and then the teacher was like, you need to get a notebook not file paper, it looks horrible (it was pretty much torn on the edges and screwed up XDD)
After lunch which was after maths, was electives! WOOPEE Electives are like extra subjects, ie. cooking, sewing, painting, music, computing, photography, metal work, wood work ETC ETC! So in period 6 i had a single computing extension! yay it was quite fun! We learned more stuff on microsoft excel and learned "vertical lookup". It's pretty much another formulae you can use to look up something in a spreadsheet. It's a pretty cool and powerful function once you can use it right. OhmyGosh listen to me, it's the inner nerd coming out to say hello...ohgosh

Well in seventh period i had specialist music, with...mr chatfield DUN DUN DUN!! If you haven't met him, YOU DONT WANT TO! He is like weird, random, and not to mention EVIL! oh and he favours students and holds grudges on others, i mean what kind of teacher does that, ESPECIALLY the head of the department...Gosh 1 period was quite enough for me on Wednesday, so i pretty much die in a double, WHICH IS TOMORROW, NOOOOO x_x

Well to finish off the day of Wednesday i had Photography and that was pretty cool, i just typed up some documents to go with my assingment and edited photos.

OMGG i'm never going to get through the whole of Thursday...i've tryed my best to "sum up" Wednesday, and i've written like, what, 6 paragraphs...gosh..well let's give it a go shall we :D

So today Thursday, before school today i had nothing WOOPEE socialising time! Hung out with Celine, Ben M, and some random tall yr 10. Ben declared that he is bi-sexual with mr byers :D Well we kinda made him declare it, but apart from that he declared most of it :P.

So first 2 periods i had Japenese with the awesome MRS RAY! wooohoo, i had her this year and last year for Japenese and she is the awesomest teacher in the school i reckon :DD 3rd period i had society and environment with mrs d'souza, she's not my usual teacher. Yet again she's a releif of a releif. She has this thing with staring at people for like 10 mins straight. It's so creepy and then you wonder if you're doing anything wrong or if she's gonna say something to you :S

So moving on to the next period. I had a double Maths with my new teacher Mr Pisano. He was my new teacher because the yr 9's got streameed into their special classes. In term 1 we had 2 tests and those marks would determine if we went into A(dumb), B(normal), C(accelerated), or D(Extension). I was very motivated to get into D pathway this year, and WALA i got it :) I am so happy because last year i was in acclerated and it was a little boring for me ://. Maths pretty much flew past, siting alone forces you to do work and not have the temptation to talk to someone so when you work it goes quicker. That's what i reckon anyway...

Then today lunch time i had soccer training for the lightning carnival! We didn't really "train" we just played a game of "keep it off" and it was pretty unfair because there were like 7 more people on the other team, but i think my team put up a good fight :P So guess what! After soccer training during lunch i had a double P.E after it. OhJoy! P.E today felt like it went on forever!! It just wouldn't stop! But then obviously it came to a stop cause like all things there's an end, like this post is going to end very soon! :)) just giving you the heads up if you're still reading after all this boring stuff :/ sorry for boring you...

And to finish off the day i had a single english, we just watched another video by the Chasers, and then had to right down the "lessons" we'd learnt from them about news reports. After school i had swimming, which was SUPER tiring, as we had to swim fully clothed in the water..gosh my freestyle felt like i wasnt getting anywhere.

So that is the recap of yesterday and today (Wednesday and Thursday). Tomorrow is a Friday and i have scouts in the evening but hopefully i'll be writing to you before that.

ily guys thanks for reading this far ahead, i appreciate it!

dont stop smiing :DD

Gosh, i sometimes hate Tuesdays! Well in yr 9 i do...Well i tell a lie, because my first subject of the day is Photography which is fun and relaxing.

Today i edited some pictures i took, which was very amusing actually, and typed up some documents. Then the dreaded day of Tuesday starts. It starts with a single Science with Sanders. It doesnt sound that bad, but it's HORRIBLE! A single period (40mins) feels like 5 periods, so imagine when we have a double science (80mins) it would feel like 10 periods, and we dont even have 10 periods in a day :S

You can ask every single person in our science class and they'll all say, Mr Sanders is a dickhead and needs to get a life. When i say this, i'm serious!! I completely aggree with this because 1) he needs to get a life other than writing "Mini-Tests" all the time and 2) he needs anger management... -.- You never want to meet him, he'll eat, bite, and chew you to pieces. He'll shred you to bits like a chain saw.

Well my complaint about him today is, yesterday he gave us a mini test, like an impromtu test and then gets us to mark it straight away, and then says that he's dissappointed with out marks, WELL he didnt tell us about his "mini test" so we didnt know to study! AND no one I REPEAT no one would waste their weekend just studying for the sake of studying. And so he told us, "i might start giving out more tests soon" and we thought (we = whole class) that he meant maybe next week or by friday, keeping in mind that yesterday was monday. So then we go into class today and he says, "books off table noww! You have another mini test!" and everybody goes OMFGGG, WHAT?! If they didn't aggree with the face that he was a dickhead before this, i'm sure they do now.


Well after recess i had P.E otherwise known as Physical Education. Well that wasnt very interesting. We last did soccer and compare that to netball it's a HELL of a lot more exciting..But it's all good cause i still have soccer training for the lightning carnival (interschool).

Just to sum up the rest of the day, after lunch i had Japenese and we got out recent test results back and i got 24/25! WOOHOO! After Japenese i had S&E and we had a releif releif because our releif was on sick leave or something and our real teacher, well she was on long term servie leave and let's just say i am glad of that :)

So after all classes had finished, that unfortunately was not the end of my day, because me and many others had band/orchestra to attend to..and as a percussionist it is pretty boring. Half the time you just sit there and do nothing. But i'll tell you one thing we do, we text the people who are playing and then their phones vibrate in their pockets and distract them, and we bluetooth songs to each other. That's pretty much what band/orchestra is to us. Haha, and the good thing is, is we dont get caught XD but we dont do it all the time :P so dont tell any teacher about this ok? Unfortunately Derek was feeling a little sick during band/orchestra and Andrew wouldn't cut him any slack at all, he said to Derek "stop being such a woman"..it was quite funny i had to admit but still you gotta feel sorry for him..

Anyway i gotta go, night night, and check back tomorrow for a new post! Round about this time...://

p.s

Dont stop smiling :DD and COMMENT and RATE this post if you read it :PP

Yoo, how's everyone? It's been like what half a year since i last wrote in here...well i dont want to make it too long but i have no homework or music practice to do tonight :OO so wooppeeee!

Well as you all know i've been to Sydney and back, and Scandanavia and back! Yes, i've done HEAPS of travelling these past few months and i even got stuck in scandanavia because of that silly ash cloud :// oh well a couple more days on holiday was ok :DD because we went shopping :P But Scandanavia wasn't just ALL shopping and fun, we were there to play music, because it was a "music tour". The schools and venues we played at and the people we played for were so enthusiastic, i can't even begin to describe how awesome they were. They just were! They would clap to the beat of the song, or they would just sit and listen and you would know that they were loving every moment of it. As a musician traveling half way around the world to play for someone, that's the sort of reaction you want :).

Anyway i also went to Sydney in January! It was for a scouts Jamboree! (if you dont know what it is, i suggest you go google it, cause no way am i explaining that to you, i have the trip to explain!) The Jamboree was a 2 week thing in Cataract Park in sydney. Every state from australia went there. It was the biggest event in scouting for australia pretty much. What was even bigger was that pepole from 47 other different COUNTRIES came and joined us too! So we had people from africa, asia and some from europe i think come and join us! It was a massive event and a memorable highlight of peoples scouting lives.

Well the subject title is called May isnt it? Well, that's right, today is the last day of May for 2010! OMG this year has just zoomed past with 2 major events for me. I thought this term would feel extremely long with 11 weeks of school, but hey i was surprised with how quickly it's gone! Did you know in sweden their school terms last for like 16 - 20 weeks?! gosh i would die!

If it's week 7 now then it's only 4 more weeks of school left! WWOOOPEEE! I am so excited because then it is only 5 more weeks until i go for a holiday in Pemberton! I am so excited because we're going to climb a really big tree! I'll tell you more about it when it gets closer.

Well gotta go, got an early start with guitar ensemble at 7:30am in the morning -.-"

See you's all later, and thanks for reading this probably boring but somewhat intersting post of my'n... :D
