Listen to Mama

Comment | Permalink



[6:26AM Wednesday 7th April]

Have any of you heard of Walkerman’s “Listen to Mama”? Oh, I tell you…it is the best song. I love it. It is so upbeat, and happy and bouncy and….damn excellent. I am an addict. Gorgeous song-keep an ear out for it.

Anyway, here I am to update my “fans” [?] about my life. Well, the oral on the autobiography fell through. I was better prepared than the others three in my class [3? Yes, three. Special class] we did the wrong thing. Apparently we were focusing too much on the plot of the book, rather than the values and attitudes. I’d have to disagree- our module sheet said nothing at all about values or attitudes. It just said we had to give a report on the autobiography and listed some things we’d like to include- like a Book Review, author background or historical information. Values? Attitudes? Nary a mention.

I think the Great Depression report has fallen through too. It is due today, and all I have is 49 pages of notes. Seriously- I now know a whole ton about it, but there is so damn much. I imagine at least some of you have explored the Great Depression or American History deeply, right? Isn’t it just…well, cool how everything is so intertwined with everything else? How it all just follows on? The closer the look, the more you can see tendrils of the effect of past events changing what is happening. I just think it is…amazing. I mean, I knew that everything was related, but somehow it is really cool to actually see how it does. I’ll just have to tell my teacher that I might have to present it next term. After this week is over I’ll have two weeks of holidays! Yay. Sadly I think I’ll be going camping, and heading up the coast. Not much computer time =(.

Have you guys been keeping up with James’ RPG plans? I’m telling you…it sounds like it is going to be legendary. He is so thorough in everything he does. I don’t know where he gets these great ideas for all of his RPGs…but it outplays whatever anyone else has ever laid on the table. I think I’ll be sure to read that particular RPG.

Now for my actual life…well. Heh. Not much to say. We did play soccer against the Year Eight’s yesterday. No, don’t look at me like that I didn’t take them out. No…well. He ran into me! I just stood there! Honestly! Lol. Anyway, our skill was matched by their numbers. They had about twice as many as we did. We were too good for them yesterday though -3:1. Long live the triumphant Year Tens. I even scored a goal! Maybe two, but I think it was only one. We seriously outplayed them, but kept losing the ball to the wall. Of Year Eights, that is.

Last week we played an all-boys group of Year Eights and lost 1:0. But we let them. =). Really.

Uuh. I went into town during 25th period yesterday [25th=Free period for students], and almost missed the school bus. I’m bloody glad that he stopped for me. It was a close thing. Why was I so late? Waiting for these girls to get out of the shopping centre of course. What else did you expect? Lol. Anyway, next time I’ll make sure to leave them earlier.
Anyway, I haven’t got much else to say. Life is good.
