A Long Snooze

Yes, it has been a very long time since my last entry. I can tell you guys that Yearlies weren't as bad as I was expecting them to be. I'm not sure how well I went, but hopefully, I circled the right answers and scribbled the right words on my examination papers.

On Sunday night, I set my alarm to ring at 6:00am so I could do a little cramming for Commerce. Monday morning - The alarm bell rang. I got out of bed to turn the alarm bell off. Alarms can be so annoying! Then, I crawled back under my warm blanket and slept till 7:00am. My studying plans never work out.

Today, the alarm bell also rang at 6:00am again. Yes, I crawled back in bed after turning it off. Why would anyone bother waking up early if there are no more exams? I had a long, peaceful snooze till my dad came thundering into my bedroom and woke me up. "Do you know what time it is?" my dad yelled. I looked at the clock. 8:30am. I seriously just wanted to fall back into sleep and wake up to a 7:00am tomorrow. I got ready in 5 minutes instead of my usual 50. Quite amazing how fast I could be when I'm being rushed. I didn't even brush my hair. Ahehehe.

I caught the train that comes after the late train. I was the only Hurlstone student on the train. Probably the only student as well.

I get scared when I'm alone. When I'm alone, I'm very aware of the people around me. I look at every single person and stay away from the people who look a little shifty. Shifty, meaning they have a rapist look. I chose a carriage with lots of people to sit in. At Liverpool, nearly everyone got off. I looked around me to see if there were any shift people close.There were three elderly woman with me. Safe... Not really...Unless they are like the granny in Madagascar, they wouldn't be able to save me from a rapist.

I got to school and greeted Ms. Campbell good morning.
"Late aren't you?"Ms. Campbell grinned.
"Yes miss."
"Did you miss the train or couldn't get out of bed?"
"I couldn't get out of bed, miss."

Today was the first time I've ever been late for school. I don't ever want to be late again. It's so scary and lonely catching a train by myself.

Bubblegum

Once I blew a bubble the size of my face with a Dinosaur Egg bubblegum.

Attractive Camels

"She never knew she was beautiful until you told her so..."

(Thought of in the morning. Someone would never know they were beautiful unless somebody told them. Right?)

Studying isn't that bad anymore but I'm now finding it hard to start studying. I think it's because I know, I would have to sit at my table and stress for many hours until bed time. After I start studying, I kind of get into it and from then on, it's not bad. Like today for instance. I got out of bed at 10:30am, took a shower, then ate breakfast. Whilst eating breakfast, I looked at the microwave clock and it read 12:20pm. Time flies sometimes.

I read something really funny/gross last week while writing science notes. It's in the Science Focus 3 textbook, on page 168. It says -

Do you find my stomach attractive?
Male camels perform a clumsy dance to attract a mate. During the dance the male sometimes regurgitates one of its two stomachs, which then hangs frothing from its mouth to tempt the female!

AHAHAA. Aren't male camels romantic?

Alrights, I should begin studying now. The thought of sitting the exam and not having a clue of how to answer the questions scares me.

Love Heart Apples

I love apples. Fuji Apples. On Yahoo Answers, a guy said, "Fuji apples have the highest total phenilic and total flavonoid content of any apple." I have no idea what that means, but it's probably something good. AHEHHE. I should be studying, but I can't stop procrastinating! AHH!

Last night I cut some apples because my mum was busy playing Farmsville. I didn't do a great job cutting them. I took off a third of the apple flesh just trying to peel the apple skin! I don't eat apple skin because apple skin contains bad chemicals... Apple skin is good if the apple is organic.

Oh, next time you eat an apple whole, see if you can bite a love heart like I did, but I'm telling you, don't eat apple skin. BAD CHEMICALS.

How mad is this? It's just like the Twilight apple.

LOVE HEART.

WHAT A MESS.

My bowl of apples.

I LOVE APPLES!

Turtle Shaped Hail

On Tuesday it hailed at my place. I was writing science notes when it happened. I don't like it when the weather's cold. I'm a warm weather sort of person? The hail was about 4 cms in length, the size of icecubes! What's funny is that the hail was shaped like turtles! My sister and cousin collected a box of hail after the rain stopped. I think it's still in our freezer.

Grey sky.

Green, green grass.

Can you see the lemon tree? :)

Sister and cousin collecting hail. They're so cute! :D

Hail at my feet. Pretty isn't it?

Turtle shaped hail! Amazing.

I hope hail comes in the shape of bees next time. Teeheee.

Green Tea Face Wash

Inspired by Michelle Phan's YouTube video, Rice Water For Healthy Skin, I set off into my kitchen to look for organic rice. I found rice, but I had no idea whether it was organic or not. I didn't want to take the risk. I was getting a little uneasy because my dad was eyeing me from the the lounge. He hates it when I mess up the kitchen. At the last minute, I found a teabag of Green Tea With Jasmine. I have no idea what made me try green tea as a face wash. I wasn't that silly. I googled before trying it out. Supposedly, green tea has many skin benefits such as clearing acne and freshening up the face as it contains caffeine. I took pictures. Yes, I look funny, I know. How does anyone look good when they're washing their face? :)

I used Lipton's green tea. :D

I used warm water, not boiling water.

With a cotton pad, I gently scrubbed my face.

More scrubbing..

More scrubbing..

I waited 2 minutes for the tea to soak into my skin.

Then, using a wet towel, I cleaned the tea off my face.

I poured the remaining tea into a small perfume jar.
Can you see my skin radiating? :)

Tip: Pin your hair up when you're at home! Your skin needs to breathe. It also helps with clearing forehead pimples. (LILY)

You might think I'm silly like my mum did, but I think it works! Try it out. It won't damage your skin, trust me.

1st day of studying

I've made a little more progress with my study notes. Okay, not really.

Day 1 -
Wrote Japanese notes and tidied my study desk. Highlighted everything so when I actually read my notes, I won't fall asleep.

I spent about an hour studying, before I noticed my camera sitting sad and lonely on my dressing table. The photos with me in them are self timing photos. I wasn't actually doing any work, just posing. Teehee.

Day 1

Bed hair :D Writing notes. (My hair isn't white)

Tied my hair back. Highlighting my notes

Skk-issors :D

Uhh.. an orangy, yellow cloud.. :D

Colourful notes aye? :3

Highlighters playing tag :L

So many books :(

I've been eating more chicken, cows!

Couldn't stand studying anymore. Any comments on my blog? Ooh, Facebook..

Totally failing.. AHEHE.

Wore on my glasses. Okay, gotta focus.

Looked out the window.

Went out to the backyard. Awwh, the sky was grey.

At this rate, I will definitely do bad in my Yearlies. Why do we have Yearlies anyway? The students hate exams and I'm sure the teachers hate marking exams...right?

Bird With Mohawk

I was moisturising my face this morning, when one of my eyelash came off. (Came off - I can't think of a better way to phrase it) It was such a long eyelash! It measured 1.3 cms. That's the eyelash in the photo ... and a lead box. Long isn't it, the eyelash? Just to let you guys know, Peggy, Carmen and Jennifer pulled out my first white hair 2 weeks ago. I'm getting old :D

Today in agriculture, I got to pick up some lambs! I felt so sorry for them, their tails were elastrated today. Mr. McCord put nasty, green rubber bands on their cute tails. Most of the lambs were very adorable and soft, except for one. One of the lambs nearly kicked me in the face! Lambs may look cute, but they are actually very aggressive.

After all the lambs were elastrated, I had poo on my hands, I stank like sheep and flies were buzzing at me like they had never vomited before. I hugged Thanh in maths after I came back from the farm. AHAHAHA. I LOVE YOU THANH, please don't kill me.

I felt disgusting for the rest of the day. I took a long shower when I got home. I saw a bird with a mohawk on the way home. What a gangsterish bird!

It's HOLIDAYS! For the first time in my life, I am not looking forward to holidays.

Goodbye, Yr 12s.

After the Yr 12 Final Assembly, I spent a lot of time thinking. Life is really short, and if we don't treasure high school moments now, we'll regret it when we're adults. I'm never going to complain that school sucks anymore, because it doesn't! We're probably living the best time of our lives right now.

DID YOU SEE HANSON DANCE??? Hanson, you're an awesome dancer! I saw you practicing a week ago. The only thing I saw you doing, was swinging a door.You should be part time dancer when you grow up.
Like Kenny always says, "I'm going to be a family doctor in the morning and a basketball player in the afternoon."
I'm sure you'll make your parents proud Kenny. I'll be proud of you, prouder than your parents maybe. Just to let you know Hanson, you and Nick killed locker 438. I'm sure the owner of that locker owner will be on a swearing spasm when they find out their locker is dent.

BLINK 900, don't break up! You guys are mad. You made me hum 'Toxic' for the whole day. I was sitting on the edge of my sit when you guys were playing. WOOT. I liked Ryan's head bobbing.

Xanthe's song was so pretty! I've tried writing songs. My songs contain about 50 'baby' words in them. Something like this:

2x Chorus
You're my honey, baby, baby, baby, baby.
Sticky and yellow, baby, baby, baby, baby.
Bayyy - be!

Horrible isn't it? AHHEHEE. I can't dance, sing or write songs! I think it's called untalented.

If you have time, check this page out. 'Sexuality of William Shakespeare'
I find it so funny.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexuality_of_William_Shakespeare

If you have a blog, answer these questions yeah?

Questions

1. Do you think we'll look different in Yr 12?
2. Would you cry on our last day?
3. Should I write a song and sing at Yr 12 Final Assembly? AHHEHEHE.
4. One word that describes our grade?

What I learnt today?
THANG, you have another name! IGNATIUS! Reminds me of fire. I'm sure you've heard that a million times haven't you? Teehee.
