so tien and i finished shopping around and figured we better head back cos it was getting lateish. it was so lol, we went into every gloria jeans we passed and bought babycinos hahaha YUM. and OH YEAH we saw purple police car! we got like, lost trying to find the train station but we got there eventually and spent the trip back reading mx and gossiping. heaps of fun (Y) i think im beginning to see now that its better to go with one person youre tight with than going in a large group of people youre just okay with. there couldve been other factors affecting the first half of my day but yeah, alls well that ends well.
the day after city, justine and tien came over to my house and met my cousins jenny and danny. lol, they always act up when theres people around they dont know. didnt really do much, helped jenny with her fractions, ate chips, played music and made fools of ourselves singing taylor swift songs with hillbilly accents.
the sunday after that (the first of march), a whole heap of people from school went to a mini-fair in liverpool that christina organised to raise funds for the victorian bushfires. they were facepainting, selling balloons, clothes, arty crafty stuff etc. it was alright i guess, the most fun was probably just bumming around selling balloons to people and playing music through the speakers in liverpool plaza.
amanda, justine, tien and i did perform in the talent quest though. sang a song. lol, well i shouldnt laugh, but there was this little girl who came to perform in the talent quest and she got all dolled up and everything but her act was a flop because christina epic failed with the props. only one microphone and a laptop that wouldnt connect properly to the speakers. what we had to do just to play music was hold the microphone up to the laptop so yeah. poor little girl went off the stage crying. MM GOOD ONE lol. in the end we made $1101.50 (:
monday was fun. mariam and i helped with PHILMING on the farm. right courtney? :L:L zhou and betcher were there too. WE SAVED A GOAT! its head was stuck in the fence and it looked like it was in pain. but yeah. WE PLAYED ON HAYSTACKS. i didnt actually want to be in the photo, but whatever.
on wednesday during sport, courtney, mariam and i continued with filming (not that we actually filmed anything). we went ATL loool and got orange juice to mix with coke. IT WAS SO GOOD. its our new thing. but yeah, we pretty much walked around and gossiped. we were talking about courtneys fear of birds and once in a while, just to try and scare her, id start waving my hand around in front of face and going "CAW CAW!" but she never fell for it. this is the conversation that came after about the 5th time i did it.
julie; CAW CAW!
courtney; very funny julie
mariam; yknow if a real bird actually flew down you would probably just think it was julie
julie; (while laughing) yeah and itd latch onto your face and start sucking your blood
mariam; (also laughing) like a leech with wings!
julie+courtney; -silence- then hysterical laughter.
ALSO! while we were sitting and talking about the "old days", i learnt something shocking, something that shook the foundations that all my friendships at hurlstone had been based on. i found out that when we were all in year 5, mariam and amanda had stolen and hid my bike. WHAT THE F! apparently it was because i used to be friends with this other girl at tutor they didnt like. and now, 6 years later, i realise it was THEM who pushed my bike into a bush or something. so yeah, i hate them both forever. lol.
i went to ellas house that afternoon. HER HUSKY ATTACKED ME, it was terrifying. it came up to my like hip and it kept running and jumping at me. i cried (just a little) and ella had just painted my nails so i was trying to wipe my face without damaging the finish. ellas brother found it hilarious. asshole, he's like 12 and still plays my little unicorn on the net.
not much else happened that week. i went livo with lily and kevin on thursday+friday afternoon. been growing my book collection. i have completed the tomorrow series and the rangers apprentice series now, as well as the first three artemis fowl books. not that i have much time to read nowadays, so much homework.
this week especially has been stressful. we had to present our economics assignments (we got 8/10 for ours) AND there was the english assessment. soooo stupid, im pretty sure i screwed up the essay. it was such a stupid question!
"control of self or others is the key to leadership/authority. how is this concept explored in your texts?" omg cmooon. i think the adv. english question was easier than ours! about misuse of power and stuff. also, ive noticed that our AOS is different to all the other schools' who are doing journeys. eiofhdjlSWIHDFO
