Not exactly sure why, but I guess my school's having a teachers only day and than another day off, not really sure and I don't really care - four day weekend's good to me! So today I was intending on having lunch with my friend Brandon, along with Nick, but this morning he let me know he was quite sick and was missing a lecture for the first time ever, so I guess that means he really was quite sick.
So Nick and I decided to do something still, so we went to lunch at my favourite restaurant in the world, a That place called "Chokdee". DELICIOUS. We invited Oscar, Rob, Ash and Nat but the last two were whores and didn't come. "Whatever." Natalie would say in her overly dramatised nasal valley-girl voice, well, in my imaginative perception anyway. So that was good and afterwards we went to Morrison Street café which was awful. So not going there again, unless somebody else is paying, in which case I'm keen. Nelson (my city) is cursed with terrible cafés! I'll never understand why drinks are so exorbitantly expensive. $3 for a decent sized coffee is fair for me, fuck just make it an instant coffee, I really don't care - just make it big and make it quickly. Sick of overpriced, tiny drinks that are 50% foam and chocolate sprinkles. So annoying.
A girl, Lea, who was an exchange student from Germany has been on holiday here for the last few weeks and it's her last few days so we had a little goodbye dinner at another restaurant, "Poppy Thai" (which is NOT as good as "Chokdee" at all), which was shockingly small because everyone's gone away for the long weekend, but we manage to get six of us (four came later but didn't order anything, three just back from netball tournament and the other, Natalie, had just finished work) together and we had a nice wee meal and chat & it was quite good.
So yeah, not the most interesting of blogs but the point of having a blog is to blog, and there's nothing special on my mind. Off to watch "Chelsea Lately", bye!

Actual Blog for Once!
Well let's do a quick round-up of all the events over the last week (and a half) that I really haven't properly blogged. Well you get the gist of the Wellington trip anyway, and if not you can just like, ask someone else. Cause I'm over it.
Being back at school is such a nightmare, but there are definitely benefits to being back home. But I don't discuss, anything, on this blog. So get over it, you'll just have to talk to me in person! (Excluding Rianna, cause she's too nosey. Tehe!) Anyway Wellington was fucking amazing and I loved it, except when we got back it turns out the teachers that took us on the trip hated it and thought we were the worst behaved people ever and never want to take a school trip again. Here I was thinking it was fabulous, so much for that cause they were like bitching 24/7 (or so it seems) to the teachers. Hopefully they're over it now.
Anyway, well I was in a amazing mood last week. Loved it! But by the time work rolled around on Saturday (slowest day evveerr!) I was in the worst mood. But Brandon's look get-together afterwards was very great! I enjoyed hanging with his friends, must get over myself and hang with them more often. Anyway that night was interesting, was a bit worked up over something that turned out to be nothing. Trust me.
Sunday I chilled out, did some homework, played on the computer, ate, A LOT. And went for a walk/run. Was quite good to do that by myself, independance is a God given gift. That's for sure! (Look whose talking. Religious old me! Haha, no wonder I go to Garin. ;])
Anyway, today at school was ok, boring - but ok. Kind of a bit cold-sicky, I will look forward to NOT coughing up flem and shit all the time, it's fucking sick, to say the most.
Anyway, love you Rianna and Ashleigh! You guys are fucking hott. :D So is Natalie and whoever else reads this.

Fun Day!
I had another good day today (if I exclude the thought of dieting) with friends in town.
Well I had planned to get up at 8.50am and run up to the radio tower before I met up with Ashleigh, Natalie and Brandon in the morning but things happened a little differently. Lol!
Well first thing was that I turned off my alarm... and then went back to sleep, and then at like 9.30am... I hear tapping at my window. I was like, "Is my life joking?" at first; but then it happened like three times so I looked out the window (having JUST sat up from bed, in my pyjamas; my skin and hair must have looked like suicide!) and there's Nick standing there. Could have died! xD Anyway I dressed as quick as a slut, and went to see him (my dog was having an actual breakdown of barking at him, God she was loud). Anyway he came in and he chatted and it just turned out he was getting a laptop at 10.30am with his Dad and could only get a ride into town at like 9am, so decided to come to mine. God I must have looked disgusting! Then again I always do, anyway he borrowed my straightener and then took off.
I got ready then for my meeting with B, N and A at 11am (sick of writing their names) so showered, dressed etc. but then I realized Mum owed me money so at the last minute (it really was the last minute) she drove me to town and we made a quick pit-stop at the Westpac ATM, and she gave me $100 for shopping (which I deserved believe me!). Also met up with Nick again and he came along for the day which was cool, so met up with the 'crew'. I bought a jacket and two shirts, was going to buy some pants but that didn't happen. Felt like I'd overspent like a bitch already, but whatever. Oh then work rang and since I was in town, I just went to see why and it turns out they want me to work Thursday and Friday 5-9pm (as WELL as full day Saturday) so I'm like, a work-a-holic now. I wouldn't accept BOTH nights but it's holidays and all so why not. Get paid time and a half on Saturday (Anzac day) which will be a dream! Good money for shopping whenever I go to Wellington, my parents better pay for the flights or I'll scream! But they will. ;-)
What have I missed...? Oh, well shitloads (well not really); went to see Fast and the Furious 4 which was overdone with special effects, but aren't all action movies? Most of the time there was just too much happening to even watch, would have been hell to film! It really would have, like a hundred cuts per minute in the race scenes. Psycho! But it was a good movie, I don't regret seeing it. Just was hard to watch, anyway; apart from eating like there's no today (aka. Chinese, ice-cream, mentos, flavoured milk, orange juice and dinner ie. a stew [which at least I covered in Cayenne Pepper - meant to boost your metabolism!] and carby pumpkin), I had a lovely day. After Nat and Ash left Brandon, Nick and I ventured to the Warehouse and I bought 'Keeping up with the Kardashians' Season 1, love it! Will watch later though, anyway tomorrow I'm gonna go to Brandon's house and I think Juni will be there which will be cool since I have't seen him since the Summer holidays!
Anyway after the Warehouse, Brandon went home so Nick and I went to see Nick's friends who were all around the park thing by Woolworths, and LORD it was cold and windy in town by then. Anyway we wondered around and Nick bought shoes, and then I eventually wandered off as to avoid having to walk in the cold in the dark, and well... basically, here I am! And there's my full day's account.
Why did I write this out? So I could look back in like a million years (probably how long I'll live, Gawd...) and see what my life was like back in the day. Anyway... whatever, have a good one!
Peace. =]

One more week of Freedom!! (ie. holiday/vacation)
Holiday's so far have been quiet, but for some reason still intense. Even though I've only worked three days these holidays; two of which were extremely busy and yesterday was really boring and tiring! Eitherway, three full days is a lot and I've done stuff most days so it just feels like... Time has gone by WAY too busy. I should stay at home and be bored, actually I've got a lot of homework to do (and I really do mean a LOT) and it's all boring, and it all needs a loottt of writing and I really can't be fucked. There's no where to write at my house, except for like the dinner table; which is just not a very good place to focus. Need to get a chair for my room.
Hmm, well tomorrow's agenda. I'm gonna get up early and go for a big walk first thing cause I'm going shopping, and I don't wanna feel like a big heffer the whole time so that walk is ESSENTIAL. Radio tower here I come! So will do that around 9am, and then 11am I will be meeting Brandon, Ashleigh and Natalie in town and we'll shop and see the movie umm... Oh, Fast and Furious 4. Should be all time.
Hung out with Dani today, was really fun and we got Chokdee for lunch. I loved it! She really does match my personality like no other, hate to be favouritist but I am a difficult person to get along with I know. Need to stop being so ugly and annoying, will be a bit of an effort. To say the least.
Happy 17th Birthday to Danielle Webby!
Enjoy the rest of your week, and let me enjoy mine.

So much for giving up blogging...
I was trying to give up this blog, but for some reason I can't. Might as well get a whole year of events blogged down; it'll be something to look back on, I'd die if the website hosting this (ie. blogger.com) closed down, would loose this dumb writing. Should print it all out, not saying there's anything especially great about it but there's so much effing writing it'd be interesting to see how much it was compiled.
Anyway, today was a bit boring; work was busy as hell once again on Monday. The last day of the sale, and boy did the customers come in hungry for sales! Good though, for work anyway. Not for me, but I guess I did get paid +50% extra (time and a half) for working when it's a holiday, or for whatever reason I got paid that much. Was weird working a Monday though after only doing Saturday's. At least I was only on til 5pm, 6pm would have been an hour way too long. I was over it! Saw Charlotte, but didn't talk to her though, also saw Nick Pittar. He came to my checkout with his Mum so talked to her, she's a dentist though, or dental assistant or something. Hope she didn't see my yellow plaque-rideen teeth teeth, she would have cried!
I don't have a lot else to report, my current planned plans for the rest of the week are:
Wednesday: Richmond to Nelson walk with Nick.
Thursday: Walk up the Grampians with Oscar. (will take like, an hour; but whatever - my "day")
Friday: Go to town with Ashleigh, Natalie and Brandon (provided he's well, as he's been sick lately. Get better!) and shop a lot and see a movie.
That's all that's planned, but hopefully will see Dani on Saturday. Wait, I work Saturday. Fuck, Sunday then! Ugh, like a week away. So depressing, need to see her! Need. She got her job back for the holidays at Bin Inn, I think that's so funny cause she used to work there but then quit... And now has the job back. xD Whatever, not that funny really but it's just... ironic. Well not really, not that I'm remembering the circumstances... I should just shut up.
Well everything else in my life's boring, and this is my "holiday". Hoe hum.
Will just have to wait and see what else happens, if anything.

What's The Haps
So what's been happening, haven't really been in the mood to blog for a wee while, and still am not; but since I am the nicest blogger you ever met I'll write my life away (hopefully literally) regardless. Actually, fuck this; I'm going for a walk. Will come back and write this after. TTYL!
Kay, back now. So let's finish this, well... get it started anyway. SO, when I got home Friday night my parents had already taken off to the always delightful Marahau and stayed at our bach, which is newly renovated so actually quite nice these days. Anyway, I thought I'd give it a miss regardless. So not a lot happened Friday night, dragged myself for a walk up to the radio tower which I thought was pretty committed since I could easily have stayed at home and binged.
Saturday I planned to get up early as a bitch and tan (literally like, in the sun) before I went to the Shakepeare thing but by the time I got up it was 9.50am which meant I only had like an hour and a half til I had to leave the house, so after frantic preparation I dashed to town and caught the 12noon bus which took me to Richmond. Since I would have been like 15 minutes early if I went to straight to Garin to meet everyone, I went to Dani's for a bit and saw her and blowdryed her hair. Love her! Her household was really busy and everyone was cleaning and things, good people! I should be doing the same at my house, when my parents are around I get so lazy. I need to stop wasting my life achieving nothing on the internet and do something, seriously. God, keep getting side-tracked. Fuck I've felt busy and annoyed later, I really am in a rutt. But talking to some friends at school, they say they're all feeling the same so I feel a little better. Seems everyone is a bit worn out and sick of school, NEED the holidays! I better not binge either, ANYWAY; fuck.
Got to Garin at like 1pm (which felt early as a bitch), and there was like Isaac (is that his name?), James, Ella, Tim, Renee, Nick P and whoever else. Caleb Nott, and those two other music guys who kept singing songs A LOT. Whatever, needless to say; I didn't exactly fit in. So after packing costumes we took off in the van, sat by Isaac who didn't say a word to me. So that put me in a bad mood first off, then once we got there and met up with Hannah (and Nic) and Sam, we stood around for a YEAR before someone told us where to go. So we got taken around like the biggest hallways, and then we dumped our stuff and did some rehearsals (when I say some, I mean: A LOT). Anyway, I had like, 4 lines so didn't exactly need to rehearse much but did anyway. Rehearsed mostly for Sam and Isaac's sake (is that his name or is it Chris, I have no effing clue. Lol!) as Sam kept forgetting his lines, but at least he had some... *insert bitchy comments about everything here* Anyway, I don't know why; I should have been grateful to be involved and I'm sure no one meant to, but I felt totally left out the whole day and after missing a day of work (aka. $80) to stand around all day and then eat effing KFC (God I'll be moaning about that for weeks) I was basically having a meltdown. (By 'basically', I mean: I was.) Anyway, ugh, fuck knows who'll read and hate me for this; But I did have the worst day.
By the time we got to perform (like 7pm) I became a bit more excited, wasn't really nervous cause like... How could I forget my lines? I'll recite them for you. "Do you bite your thumb at us, Sir?" (I say that twice), "Quarrel sir? No sir!", "No Better", and "You lie". So whatever, everyone did really well and then... We won! So we're off to Wellington, it's exciting but like... it's also not for me, like I do get it for everyone else; and James got the best Actor and Renee got the best director award but like... I was just over it by then, and I was tired and cranky and self-loathing cause Sam and I also (kill me!) went to McD's and got a plus size (aka. what I am) choc sunday, FUCK I regretted that; but it was to die for. Anyway, then by like 10.30pm we got going back home, this trip was even better* though. I sat in the back (three seats, by myself) and everyone else was sitting together having a grand old time. So I was left to text in the backrow and was completely ignored, sounds like fun huh? Whatever, I'm sure (well not SURE, but no one was caring) no one meant to abandon me, but I wasn't impressed. Anyway we got back to school and everyone was like "OMG WE WON!!" and all I could think was "Like, four days in Wellington with this..." didn't quite have me jumping for joy. Anyway, I'm a big negative sap on everyone but I was really in the worst mood by now and quite ready to go home, so Miss Tomlin drove Renee and I home and that was good. Arriving to an empty house, after a depressing day (even though we won, which I know was great; but like, didn't actually win anything) was a bit of a wrist slit. Actually I think I know why I didn't enjoy it that much, it's because, really, I had the smallest part in the whole thing out of everyone.
And like, I didn't even get a chance to get a prize cause my part was so small; I guess I was a fill-in, in the first place. Just a change since last year for our Drama class play I was forced into being the main character, and it was a really horrible character (a Sergeant Major) and I had a billion lines, so a little more of a challenge would have been nice. I got Excellence for that role too, the only Excellence credits I got in my ENTIRE NCEA Level 1. LOL! Anyway, whatever; that's enough whinging from me. I guess it was a good day but... I just wasn't in the mood.
Sunday was a much more improved day though, and thank God for it or I would have cried! Brandon turned up at 8am, cause his parents were taking off to like, Murchison for the day and that was his only chance to get a ride. Anyway, I admit I only woke up once I heard his car pull into the drive, and I was like fuck fuck fuck and rushed out of bed and quickly dressed. Anyway, thank God he wasn't fussy cause I went though my morning routine with him there and he waited patiently and nicely. Anyway, we played old PS1 games on my very flash PS2, lol (I forgot how much I love Pandemonium!) We dithered off to town at like, 11.15pm planning to meet Ashleigh and Natalie at 12, however we were obviously both early and we ran into them at like quarter to 12 so then we wandered around and first thing we did was go to the handbag and wallet shop. It made me really want a new wallet, but Brandon was like "I just gave you a wallet!" and he did, and it's cool; but I couldn't help it. Anyway we got onto some serious shopping which I really needed cause all my clothes SUCK! Tried on fuckloads of pants at JayJays and I looked sick in all of them, but bought some black ones for $50 anyway cause I need new pants. And I got two shirts, and also a hoodie/top from Just Jeans, they were all like "It's too small for you!" but it's just an inpsiration to diet and keep my exercise regime on track.
OMG we bought the most sinful things EVER food-wise, first Brandon had a spare $10 voucher for 'Cocoa', the Fudge and Chocolate shop and I bought $10 worth of Fudge! And we all had some (except for ano Brandon) and I've still for 3 bits sitting in the pantry, Lord help me resist! We also had Chokdee for Lunch, which is THE cutest little Thai restuarant and I got my little card stamped 4 times so I'm like, two or three away from getting a free lunch. It's a good meal considering it's only like $9, love Chokdee! EVERYONE go there (and get Phad Tai, TO DIE FOR!). I also had a Vanilla Cream (kill me!) drink from Starbucks, so it's safe to put a big 'DIET FAILURE' stamp covering my entire weekend's life. Anyway I'll just skip a lot of the BS we did, even though that's mostly it. We saw Slumdog Millionaire which I've been meaning to see for a while, it was a good movie like everyone says! Not as good as everyone says, but very good regardless! Ash, Nat, Brandy and I made a good town group, and Brandon bought me/us M&M's to share, and I admit I ate most of them. Gawd! They were good though.
After that Brandon got picked up, Natalie's sister drove me and Ashleigh home also and that was cool; basically went to bed pretty early yesterday. Anyway, school today was sooo boring and had to have photos taken with the Shakespeare at Morning tea (missed my Sharon duty luncheon, what a shame) and then more Shakespeare stuff at Lunch; discussing the big Wellington trip and some fundraising ideas. All I know is that I'm seeing my brother and his girlfriend Robyn when I go up - wether I'm allowed to or not. Anyway, I'm getting a headache from writing this. You better have read and enjoyed it cause this has taken forever and Brandon has been patiently waiting on MSN the whole time. Stay hott everyone!

Yay! Weekend!
Yay, after a rather workful week of school it is finally the weekend and I would be celebrating but I had to take the day off of work tomorrow for a Shakespeare thing I'm involved in. Now it is exciting, but... for Fuck I have like, four lines. And to give up $80 and my entire Saturday to stand around pretending I'm doing something is not quite my idea of fun, and I'm pretty sure there's going to be a pizza dinner. God help me resist. My diet will die if pizza comes near me, the fruit toast and noodles I had for dinner was bad enough! Let alone the gingernuts. XD
ANYWAY, apart from my diet going really* well the weekend is looking bright (if I look past Saturday). Actually, I lie. I'm completely fucked for school. On MONDAY(!) I have to be prepared to give my English speech, and it's four minutes long! Let's just say, I haven't finished writing it... let alone, PRESENTING. Fuck knows when this speech is meant to be prepared by, it'd be just my luck to have to present first. Better hope my improv skills are sharp. GAWD!
Sunday's plans are to hang with Ashleigh, Natalie and Brandon. We will shop, get some lunch (if there's anything that doesn't scream "GET MOOBS!") and see Slumdog Millionaire. I need to shop cause all my clothes are DISGUSTING and if I don't I will continue my life looking like a completely fashion-less homeless wash-up (which is scarily not so far from the truth as I'd like). Save me, anyway; that day should be good, but let's just hope I remember to do my speech. FUCK I'm annoyed, it was bad enough having to secretly write an entire essay in 10 minutes because it was due that lesson and I forgot. Fuck I'm getting useless. Need to get like, motivated. God knows how.
It's official:
I'm in a rutt.
