Home

I haven't written in a while now, it's been so hectic with moving house. So I sit here now, listening to my brother's electric guitar playing seep through the cracked walls of my massive bedroom. My last post was my little vent, and now I'm happy to say that all school stuff has smoothed out :) I've gotten into the hang of things, settled into my new house (which is totally awesome!) and been on year 12 "study retreat". Rather than write a massive slab of text I will show you the last three weeks in photos. Happy viewing! [in order of events from bottom to top]

Jean-Vianney (centre) is our French exchange student who will be returning on Thursday. He's hilarious!

Frankie Wants Out! Which I attempted to see but couldn't as I'm not yet 18 :(

Party hard the night we moved in :P

I love the new studio lights at school!

Broken

I'll begin this post positively by showing you a photo that I found by a Flickr member who calls her stuff 'LittleSilverBoxes'


So...school started on Monday, pretty cruisy only two classes and an assembly with year 7s. Tuesday...TAKE COVER!!! I felt under attack with bombardments of information, things that HAVE to be done and pressure from teachers. It didn't help that I started at 8am with a period 0 and had no study period throughout the day. After school was play rehearsals where over 30 kids sat in a stinking hot theatre talking about their contribution to the play and then go straight from the rehearsal finishing at 6.35 to dinner for Dad's birthday AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!! Needless to say, Wednesday I came home, turned on he fan, flopped on my bed and cried. The days and the information was heavy for a little girl like me with a EXTREMELY LOW STRESS CAPACITY! Once I'd begun my first piece of homework whilst wiping away the tears I settled. I woke up happy and calm today, cruising through classes a little easier. This, I believe, was because of the pep talk Nick gave me on the phone. He spoke about how it really isn't the end of he world, if I work myself too hard I'll burn out and if I keep talking about the negatives he'll split...but not really hahaha I believe that it was also the idea that very soon I'll get into a routine and things will run alot more smoothly.

Now that I've ramble ramble rambled I will leave you with two things. One: 8 sleeps until we move house (and two parties of which I will photograph my clothing). Two: a short passage from a book that I had to briefly analyse for Literature called Carnal Innocence - 'But it sure would be nice to have some space big enough for him to move without constantly bumping into things. His mind immediately leaped back to it's previous obsession. It'd be nice to have enough space for him and Caitlin both to do some maneuvering. "Damn."' ...HA!
