serenity, car, etc

Saw Serenity.. So good... I want to buy that series on DVD.. then the movie... Then again I also want to live at Borders (just kidding, but I would love to have unlimited money to spend there).. I also want to buy a cool watch from this great shop in Hornsby... fun... Ahhh money, does wonders...

I got a car today... I think I'm going to be spending the rest of my life paying back my dad.. It's cute.. I drove it from Terry Hills home.. Geezz thats a bloody long drive with a bloody lot of lane changes and some bloody angry people!!! Good news is I feel a bit safer in it than in the pajero (work that one out).. Other good news is that it has a CD player... sadly the pajero isn't giving up my CD at the moment :(...

Going to watch Sydney three day tomorrow and monday, with PC on sunday.. Yes I know, I should be studying, HSC is in two weeks bla bla bla.. but i read some more of the Mill On The Floss, and anyone who has read even a PAGE of that book will know how much dedication that requires!!!

Speaking of studying, I have misplaced my King Lear book.. Not happy... actually, that's an understatement, I'm freaking out!! I only have to write the notes for Act five, then do In The Wild and I've finished studying english.. Woo... But I really need my book.. Maybe I'll borrow Leah's?? I think I might have to..

Tonight I'm going to finish studying maths... and finish my Telling The Truth essay so i can send it to mr hird... Finished A Doll's House, finished Pride and Prejudice... Need to finish notes about the In Focus articles for Browning.... Need to do a LOT of ancient.. and hospitality is getting left until the week and a half I have to study for it...

Garrrrrrr I have so much to do... Garrrrrrr......

Also State One Day next weekend... Very scary, my horse has decided that he would like to run free with the brumbies instead of doing any sort of work.. Gar!!! Lol...

Anyway, I think that's all I can say... tata!

Mal: This ship, be with you till the day you die
Zoe: That's cause it's a deathtrap

Hehehe.

Pizza Guy

I met a guy who works in the local pizza shop last night. Wilson would have loved him.. he had red hair.. personally im not fussed on red hair, but oh well, he was friendly and we had a chat while he made my pizza.. Turns out he is a friend of Leah's older brother. Interesting eh?

I also learnt how to get to Hornsby shopping centre yesterday from my place (who would have known it was so quick?) so I intend to drive there some time.. once I find a less expensive reason to go than the fabulous book shop they have! I spent about two hours in there.. In the end I found a book by Aristotle (or one of his students) talking about politics in the time that we are studying in ancient, and a book on the minoans.. I am not kidding when I say that the book on the minoans has every single thing we have learnt about them and more.. and was only $15.. I'm in love! lol especially cause I am just so crap at the minoan section!!! Yay!!! It's also only small, so there's not too much reading for me (i know, I'm lazy)..

Anyway I should be studying (I didn't get to try stephs timetable thing yesterday because I had to go out with mum for her birthday.. at the moment it doesnt look like I will get to until maybe tuesday next week!!!! or possibly saturday.. Hmm will have to see!

Anyway, more later, tata!

Oh, actually, I watched THE BEST episode of Frasier yesterday (i bought mum the 4th season on DVD..so funny).. It's called 'Love Bites Dog'.. so good. Lol. I love Niles.. Hehehehe!

Anyway, bye again!

91st post

Hmm apparently I have posted on this blog 90 times.. How interesting.

I got my report back today.. I think when you're in year 12 they should leave the second semester one until after the HSC.. It's just depressing to see it now when I'm supposed to be trying to motivate myself to work.. Surprise surprise, I'm no longer motivated.. I finished studying A Doll's House today, and wrote an essay for english, and I was going to finish studying maths but then I got my report and decided I would rather curl up under a rock and watch the cockroaches go about their business.

Just a quick question that I'm hoping someone might know the answer.. If it's all based on rank, and you get the mark that lines up with your rank.. Does it actually tell you anywhere what your real mark was? I hope so, because my ranks (and most of my marks) are absolute shit (see, I'm even swearing now) but I want to actually know if I do well in the real thing... I only got two comments where they didn't say that I did no work.. and that was from the same teacher.. I'm so offended, my maths teacher said i was rude to him.. and I think that's a bit mean, considering I don't think I have ever answered back to a teacher, even when they are getting angry at me for something I didn't do or whatever.. the worst i ever did to him was ignore him when was talking, and he can't know that cause i even looked in his direction with an expression of mild interest.. Pfft.

Hahah I'm a genius :

Sorry Willy (but you never know, it could make you rich!)

Umm anyways what else? Nothing really. Mum bought some VHS tapes, but forgot the actual camera ones, so will have to buy them tomorrow.. I'll record all the graduation/val/party stuff onto one of the tapes tonight (without editing).. fun fun!

Anyways.. Countdown till the hundredth post (maybe I'll throw my blog a party? lol no that should be after a year).. Speaking of birthdays.. I have a slight suspicion that it's my mum's birthday tomorrow.. I have a present (for once) but if I get it wrong I'm going to look really stupid.. Wish me luck! lol!

Anyways I should go, tata!

"$90 is a lot of money"

Haha party last night.. Quite amusing.. I think a few people would have been in pain this morning... Interestingly if they truly can't remember last night then Wilson could have run off with the money and they would forget she took it.. Hahaha.. What fun!

I need to buy some more tapes. I need ones that go in the camera, and ones to record the stuff onto.. When I have a new computer I'll edit all the stuff I have from the last two days and make it all pretty lol.. Or at least cut and paste bits.. Maybe add some music? I think that would be good. I could also add in some of the many photos I now have.. BUT first i need the computer.. Blah! Hmm I have $100 so far, only about $500 more to go! lol

In other news (hahaha how many times have you heard a newsreader person say that!?) I MIGHT be getting a car on friday.. I'm trying not to be too excited cause it seems to me that the more excited I am about something the less likely it is to actually happen.. particularly when it concerns my dad.. I think I've already written about the car thing.. Damn... Oh well, you can hear it again if you have already heard it, otherwise I am now dreaming about writing on my blog.. which is just a scary thought so I think I will just have to hope that I have written it already..

I just realised that whole paragraph was entirely irrelevant.

I had my first experience of a petrol station today. It wasn't good. It was really busy, and I waited in line for ages, then when I got to the bowser (note the use of jargon, I'm so proud..lol) I found out that unleaded was out of order.. which meant I had to do a sort of 3 point turn thing to get back to where I could get in line for a different one, but the people wouldn't let me move... which was slightly ironic because they were only blocking me from getting out of their way so that they could actually get some petrol.... but people are stupid and don't realise these things (we won't mention how stupid i was not to notice that the unleaded was out of order earlier)... anyway it took me half an hour to get to the stupid filling up part.. Then I lost the money I had been given to pay for it.. It was somewhere in the car but I had no clue where.. So I only got $30 worth instead of $50 (if you know about my car's petrol intake you will realise that this barely gets the little needle above the empty line)... then after I had done all the stuff I needed to do elsewhere I found the $50, so I got $20 more of petrol at another petrol station.. cause I was too scared to go back to the first one... so now our car has petrol, my mum has no idea how badly I screwed up.. and my hand smells like petrol cause i spilt some on it.. Apparently it usually burns your skin, but as this was from about 10am this morning, I've come to the conclusion that I am immune to petrol-burn...

Did you like my story? I did, it wasn't fun at the time, but at least now it is over, and next time I go I will remember to check whether it's working and also keep my money in my wallet, not on the seat of the car.. So there you go, my story even has a lesson.. Does that make it an allegory? If it does do you think I can use it for my imaginative journeys creative writing thing? It's a journey of sorts...it led to my own enlightenment.. Hahaha i know anyone who reads this is now hating me.. Sorry, I actually did some work today, and I'm still sort of thinking about that!

Someone put a note on my tagboard thing!!! Heheheheheh!

Oh and heylo sarah if you are reading this!!!

I should go (yes, do some work, I'm proud) tata!!!

Template

Wow! I am so in love with my new template! It's only taken me 4 hours to fix... The original is one of those blogskins ones, but naturally i wanted to change a whole heap of stuff, so i finally have.. Woot! Go me!!! I'm so proud.. I'm not sure about this drawing thing (in the 'Other' section).. hmm will have to see if I bother keeping that. I also have to get a new tagboard.. but people have to write on it cause i can't be bothered with it otherwise! So when I get it write on it!!!!

Anyways, dinner was so much fun last night! Hehehe pics are up on my msn space... When I get my new comp (lol hopefully by January) I will edit all the video I have.. should be fun. Anyways.. peter's shindig (Katie's word) tonight.. fun fun.. I get to drive there.. Should I bring the camera?? hehehehehe I think I will!!! Tata!!!

Speechless

I swore I wouldn't cry today. I don't even know why I'm writing it on here... I guess I just want to say something about it and nobody is around at the moment... anyways... I wrote a card/letter to a teacher I've had on and off from year one to 10.. and he is the most incredible teacher ive ever had, and one of the most incredible people ive ever met.. anyway.. he wrote back, which i didn't expect, and naturally I got it today while i was reading through all this old stuff from over the years, including his stuff. So naturally now my face is all blotchy and we have to leave soon for the val and im just going to look disgusting! Gar! I'm taking tissues now.

Byez see everyone tonight.

Graduation

We graduated today. It was sad, but happy. I know that's not meant to make any sense, but it just does. I didn't cry. I was proud, cause i was so close to it.. It was the damn speeches, and when Carolyn started I thought I would too. We had a photo of (almost) all the people who started in kindy with our teacher. She is the greatest teacher (trust me)... Awww... I think I got photos of almost everyone, I want to take some more tonight, but first im going to save these ones onto the computer (assuming it works) so that I can use the memory card again without losing any piccies!! I was happy that I talked to Liv and Manda..(lol note the use of nicknames again).. I didn't think I would.. but it's good, we got photos etc. Liv was crying.. I knew she would! Hehehe anyways... Valedictary dinner tonight, should hopefully be fun. Hehehe everyone has to admire the little addition i made to my shoes! hehehehe it's funny. The girl in the shop suggested it, and I think it looks kinda good.. but nobody's allowed to look at my feet, they're yucky feet. So just the shoes. Lol.

Apparently next friday I am getting my car hopefully. I'm so excited, I get to practice driving it all the way back from wherever this lady is (I know who it is and what the place is called but I can't remember right now).. It's about an hour away. Fun fun. Hope it all happens.

I heard about a course i want to do as well. It's at a thingo in Geelong (Victoria for the uneducated! :P).. It would be the year after next, so I might be living down there for a year (is that closer to the ACT?? I could visit steph more often).. I'm very excited, they have scholarships, so I want to try out for it.. Hehehehehe wish me luck!!!

More good news (does it ever end? lol just kidding).. I wrote a PARAGRAPH that makes sense for english!!!! WOOO that's 5 sentences!!! FIVE!!!!! WOOOOO!!! lol maybe this time next year I'll have written the whole essay!!!

I took a picture of mr gates today, anyone want to come over and play darts with it?!!? I know Lynda will, feel free anyone else!!

Anyway I should go put the piccies on the computer, I'll post them on my MSN space (Sorry, I'm only being a traitor once!!!)

"I can hear my left ventricle slamming shut as we speak"

I just realised my titles don't work! Damnit!! I was going to have "I can hear my left ventricle slamming shut as we speak"... It's a quote from Frasier (just for the reference, if you don't watch Frasier you haven't lived *chuckles*.. my year 3 teacher said that once to olivia and i and we honestly thought she meant that we were dead..hahahahaha good times..) anyways, back on track..

I got my Ps.

Tomorrow is the last day of proper school. I'm getting people to write something on the shirt for my winter uniform.. So far Leah and Amanda M have. Steph wouldn't cause i didn't have the pen i meant to bring (funnily enough that pen which was in my pencil case IS a laundry marker, so she's going to be writing with that one, whether she wants to or not)... Leah drew a whole lot of pictures which she has since decided she doesn't want to be associated with.. Hahaha they pretty much sum up all year 12 maths lessons so far.

I finally succeeded in writing a sentence about Telling The Truth (english thingo) that made sense! Wooo go me!! Shame I can't think of any more. I was trying to think of something profound to write in all these books I've been told to write in.. I can't think of anything... I could write my wonderful sentence? It only took me a week or so to come up with! It's not very profound though.

Oh well..

I should go. Bubbyez!

Rabbit-donkeys

I have my Ps test on Wednesday. I am going to be so upset if I don't pass.

I realised a while ago that now that my flooble (lol flooble) thing is gone, and my comments seem to have disappeared I have no way of receiving feedback... I will have to find out how to get comments back (can't be bothered with the box)...

I bought some Nerds yesterday (what a crappy name for little pieces of sugar)... i just finished eating them.. My mouth hurts from all the sugariness. Oh well, it was fun to eat them. They taste good. I don't know about the flavours, to me they all taste pretty similar. Oh well again.

I failed my driving practice test today. How terrible. For the same thing, crossing unbroken lines. Hopefully I won't make the same mistake again (i suppose it's good that up until now i have had all different problems, not the same ones a million times, maybe i do learn from my mistakes)....

Baaaaaaa

I was going to post a message from wilson on here, that she wrote last year... here it is, then I'm off, tata!

Dear Keira,
You are a rabbit-donkey! I'm sorry, that was'nt nice. I would like to apologise. *apologizes*
What's your blog thinhead?
I'm not telling you mine and I don't write on it much more neway. I should be concentrating. Go away!

none

Apparently this blog is a year old at some point in October. How fun for it, maybe I should throw it a party... Maybe not. Speaking of parties, I am thinking about when to have mine. Wilson has basically made sure it is in between Christmas and new year.. Sooooo.... The 27th? 28th? What will we do? I was thinking of having one of those murder mystery ones.. They are always fun... Maybe we could go to one of the places where it takes the weekend? Then again, they probably aren't running between Christmas and New Year.. Not much is really.. I'll see though. I'll look it up in the phone book today.

I looked through the TAFE courses I want to do next year. There are 14 of them. I printed out all the information, my trouble now is deciding which one to do first. I think the small business management (6 months) and the Ag (also 6 months) first.. Cause I can do the business one at night, and that will keep my mum happy, and the Ag one during the day, which will keep me happy.

I'm also thinking about a short film thing I want to make. I've decided on some things, but I can't decide whether to make it a documentary or a story, or a bit of both. I've filmed some stuff, which helps. I also have a general plan of how it is going to work if I have a story, or a general plan of how it is going to work if it is a documentary.. Maybe I could do both?

I need some money for a new computer, for one thing so i can edit videos, also so I can burn CDs.. cause my MP3 player seems to have died and i can't be bothered resurrecting it (or sending it away to be resurrected by somebody else)... I suppose if I could burn CDs I could also just burn the videos I do to DVD.. instead of trying to work out some other method... which I don't think exists at the moment.. Hmm, useful. I'm doing some research about how much I can buy one for on the imacu website... problem is that I still don't have any money.. I need a job.. but I would feel a bit bad looking for a job just before my HSC.. Maybe there will be some christmas work or something available?? That would be good.

I like this stuff. It puts me in a good mood. Thinking about next year is good. When I will have my license (and hopefully a car) and be able to get a job, and start TAFE, and do all the things that have been put off until "after the HSC".

I've been thinking about teachers I should really thank at the end of this whole thing. I think I might thank the teachers in the primary school before the end of this term.. then the others the morning of my last HSC exam... so it's done before I leave for Adelaide.. Hmmm.. I'm also going to invade Steph's latin class tomorrow. She doesn't know why yet, but I'm going to!! hehehehe. Maybe I should tell mr Peters why but not Steph so that he's not too surprised!! What fun what fun...

Anyway, I'm very sorry about the bad mood in the last post. I'm happy at the moment so that's good. I passed my practice test with my driving instructor this morning, which hopefully means I will pass on the actual day.

Tata.

.

I feel bad. I missed ancient today. I blamed it on my mum making me late but it wasn't that. I was late, and sure it was my mum a bit... but I could have gone for the last 40 minutes. I didn't. I couldn't make myself. Then in my free period I felt bad because I wasn't talking to anyone. Wilson was trying to be nice to me and I just couldn't be nice back. English I wrote what Mr Hird said, but I didn't listen to any of it. I want to see that movie. Maybe some other time I will actually pay attention. I didn't go to maths. Leah and I left. I feel bad about that. I don't understand maths anyway, so leaving probably wasn't a good idea. But if i usually listen in english and today I couldnt there wasn't much chance of me listening in maths. Today was pointless. Now I'm on here writing pointless things. I didn't even go through my english exam at lunch. I did go see him, but he didn't have time. I don't know why that upset me. Everything today upset me. I just wanted to get away from that common room, and the people there.. and people in general. I like english. You can imagine that you don't exist. Everything is logical. You think a certain way because of your context. Others think certain ways because of theirs. You don't actually have to feel anything about it at all, as long as you can say that you feel the way you are supposed to. I was looking forward to going to english. I was looking forward to going through it at lunch. Leah came with me at lunch to see if I could go through my exam. I didn't want her to, but it's rude to say that. People take it the wrong way. People take a lot of things the wrong way.

I feel sick.

I should go, I'm writing in really short sentences, and making pointless comments. I'm going to study King Lear. I like King Lear.

Bye

Wilson's Code

Hehehehehee I just stole Wilson's code for the random quote thing on the right.. Actually 'just' isn't the right word.. I stole it an hour and a half ago, and have since then put in 100 quotes.. Garrrr it was very annoying, but now I'm proud of my accomplishment!!!

Anyways, thankyou to Wilson for the code hehehehehehe

"Suddenly... a plane flew into Wilson's hand, piloted by a dwarf dressed as a nun" hehehe from the story in ancient history

"Trivialisation... *grumbles* the story of my life"-Mr Hird

Anyway, that's all I have to say. Not in a good mood lately. Byez
