Hi there sports fans


Golly gosh. Summer eh? This is going to be swell. I have now finished school, graduated, and am allowing myself the feeling of relaxation again. It has been a good year since we were last aquainted and let me tell you, I have missed it. Readjusting to life post study is like applying the brakes to your life until you're at a complete standstill. At the moment I'm just sitting, doing nothing. No direction as of yet. It feels somewhat disconcerting, but once you get used to it, seriously wonderful.

Today, in an attempt to gain some form of cashiki, I worked at a lettuce farm. This was good, though tiring. But overall it feels good to be doing something. I may work again next week but still, nothing is certain. I may also fill my weeks with babysitting and other random paid shamozzle around the house (ie gardening) to fill my time and my wallet. ha!

These holidays are going to offer opportunities to catch up with those whom I have neglected over the past year, and too to do things I have been to busy to do. I'm looking forward to sleepovers and barbecues. Pools and watermelons. The river. Friends. Turning 18. P's. And carving my next directions. It's pretty darned exciting.

Four days at mitta for our schoolies was ideal for getting completely out of the school mindset. Definitley more camping needs to ensue also.

Take care youse,
happy holidays

get down. it's so cold.

DAH!!!!

When you get reduced to doing nothing but convulsing from lack of heat in front a fire and eating marshmallows all day long, you know it is cold. I have become plump from layers, yet the wind still somehow manages to seep through them. You really just don't want to be outside.

This all reminds me of my days in the Canadian winter, with tops of -20 degrees daily. How is one to survive? Well basically they are equipped with kick-arse jackets which Australians are ignorant of, and my, do these babies work. Our warm clothes don't even work! What the hull?!

Mmm. Today I have done lots of homework. It's true, I have neglected the whole year 12 responsibility over the holidays. Basically it's the last holiday I'm gonna have in a while so I gotta milk it for all it's worth. But the realisation has now sunk in that I have a lot to do in a short period of time. That said, it's good being productive, working under the pump.

I'm going to see some jazz tonight. That shall be fun. I'm making a habit of it, dressing up, all 1940's like, and going to see the jazz. Luvva the jazz.

The weekend is looking fantastically blank thus far. A party on saturday night, but then time and space to do as I please. Homework still calls, of course, but I'm gonna soak up this spare time before I forget what it all feels like in the dreaded month of August.

August:

Open days, Production, SACS, Assemblies, Uni preferences, Meh, Meh, Meh...

All very exciting. Looking forward to being stretched to my limits. That is

what this year is all about...bring it on boys!

Au reviour for now. "<~

YELLO.

Wellza, it's holiday time, which in my books means staying up late. Sure I have shamozzle to do tomorrrow, and the day after and the day after, but my life is no longer confined to the average school day.

I hope this blog will last me a while, throughout this year, into next year, and whilst I'm overseas on gap. I don't know what I want out of it, probably just a space to blurt out all that is going on...without worrying if my handwriting is legible.

Today I attempted to embark upon the mountain of homework which has been kindly donated to me by five loving teachers. I didn't get too far, but I did sit there and look at it, for a couple of hours. I then went for a bikeride, hoping to gain some motivation. This didn't really occur.

Luckily my school has decided to host a 'relaxtion techniques and re-motivation day' tomorrow which I feel will assist in everything for semester 2. I work well when I have to, when I have no time to procrastinate. But throughout the holidays, the hours are endless and there seems to be a lack of urgency which is present throughout the term. Therefore I end up getting frustrated and days slip by. Dang it!

Mmm so there's my reflections on schooling at the moment...No doubt next time I decide to blog, whenever that will be, it will be filled of more joyous things.
Until then, enjoy, whoever is out there.
