'I mean, it's not like I'm secretly smuggling panda organs or anything.'



*collapses into a fit of angst*

Why can't I focus?

For some reason I am finding it incredibly hard to focus on my studies and extra-curricular work. Ugh. I spent a couple hours reading my Ancient notes for Monday's exam, and now I can't recall any of them.

My article for the newsletter on Global Week, is abysmal, and I can't think straight.

It's like I'm running on autopilot.

Someone needs to shoot me.

Did I mention I, yet again, wasn't at home when Britty called?

I need to become a recluse, I don't want to risk missing her call again...

'You know, if I weren't a rational person, I'd swear the cat was trying to kill me..'




We are so incredibly evil. Acting up in class is not cool, and I'd just like to say to all those impressionable minds out there that I do not recommend them repeating what we are about to undertake.

Well today we performed Mark's plan. We managed to get almost everyone in on it. Basically, everytime Mrs Taylor turned her back on us, someone swapped seats.

It got to the stage where everyone was out of their normal seats, some almost five rows from where they should be, diagonally.

Mark ended up the front, I ended up at the back, and we swapped places without her noticing.

When I was up the front, I raised my hand and asked a question, then Mark and I swapped back to where we were.

Mrs Taylor turned around, looked at Mark, looked at me, did a slight double take, and continued talking.

lol

The funny thing is, she kept on making references to how she was tired, and at one point when she made a mistake on the board she said, "I'm having a senior moment."

^_^;

Our evil plan to make her believe she is going senile is working.

Later on we're planning on handing in a completely unnecessary assignment from the previous unit, and claim that she asked us too [even though she's already marked them before].

For the next assignment, Jess and I came up with the evil idea of handing in the exact same assignment in a day early [different title pages] but for a different subject.

The next morning we'll hand in our real assignments and deny all knowledge of the ancient history ones we handed in the previous day.

lol

My idea [which will be implemented when it starts to get warmer] is that we [implying everyone, but if not, just Mark and I] will turn up with our bags in class, and when she starts writing stuff we need to take down, we open the bags and take out...

..a watermelon.

lol

And a Nikko pen to take notes down.

It'd look so good if we all turned up like that, she wouldn't have any idea about what was going on.

Yeah, much of the evil plotting..ehehe..

'What justice is there in the world that you cannot package icecream in a block of cheese?'


Ugh. I started going to the Global Service committee because Hannah dragged me along, and I found I was interested in what they were doing.

The 12's were pretty cool [well, really cool. That's beside the point] and I guess we got on well.

Welp, yesterday I arrive and find some of the 11's on the steps, which I'm like 'mkay, wonder how their exams are going. Heh. Our English assessment was so messed up..'

And suddenly it's open 'give me power' fest!

Eeep.

x.X;;

*hides*

Bianca just needs to shut up. If there was a person on the planet who I could single out to not be GS president, I'd mumble incoherently and point at her.

X.x;;

During 'Global Week' all I saw of her was when she wandered past muttering rubbish about not getting enough free stuff, and when we packed up, she ordered us around and where to put stuff.

*sigh*

The funny thing is that when she was ordering us around, it was one of those moments when I was really tired [and it happened to be the first day of the 'flu, and my B-day Pity her], and I was about ten minutes late for my next class.

Did I mention Jeorge and I were carrying this big wooden block thing into the chapel for storage?

One of a set of two, which was obviously already in there, which Ms Christopherson had asked us to put in then, and take them in and out for the previous four days?

Hello zero tolerance Liam!

'Bianca, we already know. Not only are we almost there, we've been here before. Look, instead of ordering us around when we already know what to do, quit stalling and go to class!'

Sowwy..

X.x;

And then yesterday she starts buttering me up, thinking that I somehow have a say in who's the next president. [Which I kind of do, lol, but Ms Christopherson has the last say. She did a good job with me, didn't she? ^_^].

'Well if you won't help, we'll just vote against those other people!'

What was funny was that before I was able reiterate my previous point, one of her friends calls out,

'He already said Ms Christopherson had the last say Bianca!'

'I know! We're still going to vote those others out!'

Seeing as 'those others' are my year 11 buddies, and one of them is my bestfriend's girlfriend.

Good job girls.

lol.

'Wait wait wait, do you girls even know what being president of the Global Service committee entails?'

'Uh..being president?'

Yeah, real witty.

'Let's see. One lunchtime gone for this meeting, Monday lunchtime taken by Senior Committee meeting to talk about what you planned in the previous meeting, a Lunch with Fr Uhr every few months to talk about what you've planned, speaking at assembly, speaking at year level assembly and of course, writing a couple articles for the school newsletter.

Did I mention that you have to be the first to be called upon when Ms Christopherson needs someone or something done at the last minute?'

I relished saying that too much.

Ehehe..x.X;

I'm not evil..

Anyhow, no post yesterday because I was helping out at school with Cultural stuff.

Mrs Sturgeon update.

Oxytuetonic has entered into the mainstream student body with the use of it at Assembly.

One for the oh-so-cool year twelves. Mrs Sturgeon has no idea. Wilson is planning on inserting a new word.

Conversation extract:

'Ms, is it okay if I do my RE assignment* on Jesus?'

'Yes, you can do it on Martin Luther King...he was the indian rights activist *long pause* Gandhi.'

*Choose one person that exemplifies service to others or exemplifies Christian values.

Did I mention I chose Samuel from Men in Hats?

'The devil made me say those things. I will remove the devil from my head with a bullet.'


Sometimes one has to wonder at how gullible people are, and why we need to take things so far.

And then you remember why.

Because it's just so incredibly funny.

Now, you remember me mentioning us playing evil tricks on Ms Sturgeon?

Well, we invented a word [Well, Dave Ball invented it, apparently], oxyteutonic.

So far, everyone [almost everyone] has been using it in their presentations on World Aid Organisations.

Everytime she asks 'What does that word mean?'

Lots of incomplete explainations follow, the dominant one being, 'oh it was just on the site miss...'

It's been going on for so long, that I honestly believed that she was just playing along with us..until today.

I did my presentation on Oxfam [after a few hilarious PPT's] and when it finished, she asked, 'what does Oxfam stand for, Liam?'

I had no idea, because I couldn't find any reference to the origin of their names on the site.

About then Michael Price pipes up, in an obviously sarcastic tone, 'Maybe the Ox stands for Oxytuetonic?'

'That's exactly what I was thinking.'

She was deadly serious, there wasn't a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

*shakes head*

So so sad.

We've almost convinced her to ask an english teacher about the word, lol.

That aside, today was Orientation day and we led around the school the young year 7 hopefuls and their families.

I don't mind doing it, but I probably needed those English and Maths lessons..

Ahem. Anyhow, principles from the musical were in-costume and character, and were gallivanting around the campus, acting as ushers and representatives of the cultural department.

'twas pretty cool.

Today was the fourth and last time I'll ever do a Downlands Orientation day. Excuse me while I have a little cry..

;p

In online news..Red Vs Blue are coming to Australia!!!

Eee!

x.X;

*heart palpitates*

One problem, they're going to Melbourne.

What? Why? Nobody likes Melbourne! The Beatles originally didn't have to go to Melbourne, they only went when some people complained!

..wait..that was Adelaide. Hm.

Same thing!

No-one likes them! They're all wet and cold and evil and filled with...um..stuff!

Brisbane is better and closer to me.

Not that it's the reason why RvB need to go to Brisbane, the reasone why they need to go to Brisbane is purely for their benefit..not mine..

Now I'll just nonchalantly show this picture of my associate Edward with his*cough*their cat.

Let that be a warning..

*shifty*

'So I quit my job, socked my boss in the head...about then I realised...I love work..' [Butterfingers]



Ugh. I'm feeling a lot better since friday [which despite nature's little present, was the best day, ever], hopefully the 'flu will be fully gone before tomorrow.

I can't afford to miss out on handing in my english assignment, and the second bit of our chem prac.

But back to friday, yes friday.

Officially best day, ever.

I was pretty much ready to pass out, owing to the first few symptoms of the 'flu.

Welp, I'd just finished the first installment of the chem prac, and left the room, incredibly grumpy and tired, only to hear that I had been called to the music rooms for some reason.

lol, so I trudge there muttering to myself, 'stupid being called to music rooms...stupid chem prac...stupid needing to pass out...'

I open the door to find most of my friends standing around, there was a kind of pause when I stood with the door open, squinting, thinking 'what is going on...'

Hurrah, surprise B-dayness.

^_^

Mark had brought a cake and everything, and several people offered themselves as presents [mm..tasty...lol].

Deyve gave me Jet: Get Born..much goodness there.

I gave him a hug-*cough*Manly hug, yes, big tough biker MANLY hug.

;p

So yeah, good day.

Apart from teh sickness.

x.X;

Hm, Otakuboards even sent me a little birthday email, yay!

It's nice to know you're still thought of..

'Oh mister scientist, I burnt my hand bone on a boiling water!'



This morning Dad was interviewed on ABC National radio, so that's cool, apart from the fact I missed out on seminary because of it.

I'm understanding Maths B now, English is mediocre, but Ancient is fun.

The N'yora team went well, and we at the Global Service group really appreciated it.

Doesn't hurt that all of the members are in my classes and happen to be my friends.

;p

Tomorrow is the last day of Global Week and in retrospect I think we've done pretty well for ourselves. Apart from certain students 'nicking stuff, [sometimes in front of our faces], we've hopefully got a respectible amount to donate to certain charities.

Tomorrow the Rifstixs are playing, it'll be nice to have a professional band play, one that's actually been able to devote solid time for practice, rather than hob-knobbing spare minutes together.

~_^

So yeah, in other news I've been seriously rethinking my chosen path in life. I mean, I want to become a Radiologist, but I keep having these repetitive dreams where I'm an Oxfam rep, or an Archaeologist.

One that keeps on repeating itself is being in the Royal Australian Light Infantry.

It's all so confusing.

I want be a Radiologist, but it's as though my mind is setting itself up to be literary or physically minded.

The bizarre thing is, all these dreams are based around service.

Oxfam, being a representative for Oxfam's interests in East Timor.

Archaeologist, aiding India in the exportation of their artefacts for further study.

Infantry, helping keep the peace and rebuilding the infastructure of some tiny country. [For some bizarre reason I keep on getting shot.]

*sigh*

It's like I'm being told something, and being told it way too late.

Moving along, quizzes!

L	Light
I	Industrious

'Tell me where the rebel bread base is, or you will join your friends as part of a balanced breakfast!'


Ugh. Out of hair gel and my ethanol based eryacne stuff.

OMG!!I"MTEHUGLYEST!!!LOL!!!

*cough*

Glad I got that out of my system.

But my hair is so soft and luxurious...

*cough cough*

Bah. I swear my brain is shutting down for indefinite re-wiring or something. I have the biggest mental block for my english assignment.

Damn you Liam! Damn you!

X.x;

Have I mentioned that my free $5 credit still hasn't come through yet?

Stupid lying Telstra.

Stupid Liam and his need off a short walk off a tall building.

*sigh*

[And no, I don't know why my icons are screwing up. I haven't changed anything. 250free is being an ass. For some reason some images are now text based. Also, yes, I am incredibly angry with myself.]

Certain things deserve to be shot.

'You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.' [Johnny Carson]


Eisteddfod last night, we came third, [That's right, Grammar didn't get a place, HA!]

Any hoo..Art assignment in, project in, and somehow for me it's become a trend to do something political.

Child soldiers, UN, Hitler, etc.

I just had the crazy idea to do an installation piece on the UN. More on that later

http://www.goobscomic.com/comics/comic104.gif/

lol, so very true.

Anyhoo. I can't find an image of Andrew Arnoutopoulos' Trojan Horse.

Help would be appreciated.

'If I were a grave-digger or even a hangman, there are some people I could work for with a great deal of enjoyment.' [Douglas Jerrold]


Huh. Party last night. Well, to be honest, it didn't bore me, nor did it overly make my day.

Heh.

I didn't mind it. I went there to be around my friends, and I was, so that was good. To be honest, I didn't see the point in the alcohol-ness.

lol

I mean, start of party, everyone was talkative, through the party there was a split in the drinkers.

A) They became slow, almost as though they were half asleep.

or B) They became hyperactive.

Just seems like how everyone acts the day after exams

;p

The thing that surprised me was how a couple of people came up to me, worried that I would think less of them.

Why would I? I'm not that kind of person.

Yes, I have my own morals, I appreciate people respecting them, but I'm not about to judge other people by them.

They have a different background to me, different circumstance, beliefs and views.

It's not ethically right to judge them by my own morals.

I love you guys all the same.

^_^

Sure, I worry, but I support. I've kind of taken it to be my job to look out for my friends at these things [And irritate ones that are out of it. Hehe..Onions] and pick up the rubbish. It's not fair on Mr Bertold to clean up after everyone.

I'm happy to attend these things. No-one offered me a drink, forced me to or anything.

To be honest I was kind of surprised at how many people knew my stance on alcohol.

o.O;

It's a conspiracy..

*shifty*

Family Quotes!

My little cousin Zekey upon being told that grandad has passed away:

'Did he die inna swordfight!?!'

Apparently he'd been watching Pirates of the Caribbean a lot.

'If it were not for the government, we would have nothing to laugh at in France.' [Sebastian Chamfort]


GAH! I have the 'code' for a pirates of the Caribbean ringone, but I have no idea how to use it. I have a motorolla, and when I go into 'edit melody' a scale pops up.

AH!

So confusing! I don't know how to compose!

x.X;

*curls up into a ball*

This is the ringtone code apparently:

2 A-3 C3 D3 C3 A-#2 A-3 A-2 G-3 G-2 F-4 R-2 A-2 A-2 R-1 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 D2 R-1 A-2 F-2 F-2 G-2 A-2 R-4 A-2 A-#2 A-#2 A-#2 G-2 G-2 G-2 A-2 A-2 A-2 F-2 F-2 F-2 G-2 G-2 G-2 G-2 A-2 B-2 C3 R-4

It's for Motorola, and it doesn't exclude my C201...iono

Guh. I dunno. I'm thickheaded, they should reach through the screen and do it for me.

*pout*

I have an Art assignment due monday, and I am without task sheet, which means I can do nuzzing.

I am such an idiot.

On another sour note, I have not mathematical ability whatsoever.

At least I got a B- on my ancient and B3- on my English...



*points* !!!

Gimme! Now!
