Second Driving Lesson
So, on the past Friday, I had my second driving lesson, it was even worse than the first time. Since the first lesson was during the holidays, there wasn't anyone around when I was driving, but this time, it was after school, and people were walking around and cars were entering and exiting the carpark where I was practising, I was totally afraid that I would crash. Then in the second half of the lesson, Jack got me to drive on the ROAD! That really freaked me out, it was pretty hard on my nerves, but with a bit more practise, and I think I'll eventually get the hang of it.

Until next week,

My first lesson
I know it's been about a month since I got my license, but I finally drove for the first time on Wednesday.

It was really quite terrifying for me since I wasn't used to it. I'm learning manual so I had to get used to using the clutch.

My drving instructor, Jack, said I did well for my first time and that I was good with the clutch which a lot of people found difficult.

I don't think I did too bad, I only stalled 3 times, and went up the curb twice.

The thing I'm not good at is steering, strange but I don't know when to turn, I have a bad judgement of distance.

Anyways, that's about it. My next lesson's on Tuesday so I'll report back then.

I GOT MY 'L's!!!
I know, I know. I haven't updated this thing in a long time. But like I said, I only do it when something special happens, and yesterday I got my 'L's! About time, since my birthday was in February. I can't wait to start driving, but first I have to get my 'L' plates to stick up :P.

I'm excited and nervous at the same time, because I don't know if I'm going to be good at driving -.-;;;

By the way, I passed the Computer test with flying colours, 30/30!!

Alright, I'll probably update again after I've had my first experience at driving.

School is soooooo tiring!!
I'm sorry that I've taken so long to update this thing, I haven't had the time to do so lately. As the title indicates, I've been very tired from school lately, and it's only been 4 weeks, 5 this coming week. I've had all these tests, assignments, an in-class essay, another one on Friday, and an Oral presentation on Monday. I find it exhausting, especially when I have early morning tests which are at 7:30am.

It feels like so much longer than 4 weeks but time passes so slowly.

Hopefully I'll eventually overcome this as I get used to the life of Upper School, but it's still going to take a while.

Until the next time I have spare time,

Merry Christmas!!!
It's almost upon us! Christmas Day, the 25th of December. I'm typing this at 10:15pm so there's only a few more hours left. I'm just hyped because it's another holiday, but I'm usually not very excited by Christmas because it dies down through the years, well it does for me at least, I dunno about everyone else out there.
I wish I had snow, I wish I wish I wish. But it won't come true, after all, I do live in Australia where you only find snow rarely in the eastern states of Australia, and I'm on the very west. Someone has to tell me what snow's like sometime.

Anyways, Merry Christmas, I hope you enjoy your Christmas, away from the 35 degrees celcius that we're supposed to have tomorrow.

End of School!
I keep forgetting to update this thing...

Anyways...Yay! On Thursday, 16th of December, it's officially the final day of my Lower School life. Next year I get to move on to Year/Grade 11! I'm kinda anxious for it to see what it'll be like, even though I know it's going to be a lot harder.
I'm getting my year report tomorrow (Wednesday 15th) and I hope I got some good levels.

It's almost the holidays and I can't wait, but the bad thing about it is the weather. Like today it reached 41.5 degrees celcius and it was really bad to be at school in uniforms on a day like that. I wish we had snow over here, it'd be nice to have a cold/cool Christmas for once. Oh well, you can't be too picky can you. But supposedly this season of summer's going to be worse than before.

Anyways, that's all I have to say for now.

Current Game Obsession
Alright, I've updated again. I should make this a more regular thing...But anyway, my latest game obsession, well re-obsession actually, is Final Fantasy VIII. I borrowed it off a friend about...10 weeks ago. The reason I chose this topic, is because I can't think of anything else to talk about. But I like the game, Squall's cute!

No offence to any Rinoa lovers, but I really don't like her. I find her very irritating and annoying. Why? Because of that little laugh she always does.

And even less offence to Squinoa lovers. I just think they're not meant to be together. I dunno, just because Rinoa's all happy and Squall's the 'Ice Prince'. It just doesn't go together, ya know?

But away from the topic of romance. I like the storyline, but when I first played it last year, it was very confusing for me and I didn't understand a lot of it. I'm better now, and I'm trying to train my characters evenly, because last time I had a group that were really strong, then a group that were really weak, so I couldn't get through Ultimeticia's castle.

I'm sorry for anyone who doesn't know what the hell I'm talking about, just needed to post something to update it I s'pose.

If anyone's got any opinions or thoughts, just comment on this post and I'll check it.

What's my family like?
I decided to update and I've been having trouble what to talk about, so I decided to talk about my family.

Well, there's me. I'm the youngest of the family and I'm always picked on. I think of myself as the anime, manga, and game freak or the one with the most video tapes and won't give them up to record something else. Mainly because they're full of anime and good movies. I have quite a temper and can be happy one minute and angry the next. Same as my brother.

He's the middle child and he has quite a temper. He loves his computer and laptop but keeps wanting to get a new one because he says it's old. We got Broadband Cable because of him, he wanted to play net games with his friends without the computer lagging. He's studying Computer Engineering.

After that is my older sister. She's studying to be a Japanese Teacher. She's had a lot of practicals(when she goes out to teach at schools) and once she even had to teach me. It was so strange to be calling my sister by our surname, with Miss at the beginning of it. She's a hard worker but has a pretty bad temper too.

Then there's my parents. They both work very hard to help us. They have their own business, repairing TVs, VCRs, Computers, Radios etc. We always get a lot of customers so we get payed if we take any customers. Pretty good. My Mom's the "secretary" but she doesn't really do secretary stuff. She does normal house stuff too. Their workshop is at our old house, where we used to live before moving to our current house. And my Dad fixes everything. He's a hard worker but he's getting old. If you walk into the area where he fixes stuff, there's lots of TVs and everything around, stacked up, either in line to fix or waiting for the person to pick it up.

Well that's about my family. Nothing much to it. We have pet fish but I'm not gonna talk about them.

What do I do in my Free Time besides going on OB?
What do I do in my free time besides going on OB? I do a lot of things. Sometimes I sleep. But that's on very rare occassions. I don't like to sleep. I try to stay awake as long as I can unless I need to get up early. I usually read and watch TV or play one of my many game consoles. I love reading. I've been called a bookworm on quite a few occassions. It doesn't bug me though because it's true. I love reading really thick novels about fantasy stuff. That's where a lot of my RPG ideas come from. My favourite author at the moment is Tamora Pierce. I love her books. She's well known for her quartets. I love watching anime, just a shame that they show really crap ones over here. I'll go to another country some day and watch their anime. It'd be a hell of a lot better then what I have over here. And I love playing RPG games. I love the Final Fantasy series the most. I've played pretty much every series. But I've missed some.

Yup, that's what else I do in my free time besides going on OB.

Will I ever Get tired of the Adventure Arena?
Sometimes I wonder, Will I ever get tired of the Adventure Arena? Most of my time on OB is solely on the Adventure Arena, signing up or posting in RPs. In V6 I looked at my Number of Posts. There was a lot and pretty much all of them came from me posting in lots of RPs. The question, I don't know the answer to that. I don't think anyone does. Perhaps I will, Perhaps I won't. It's all in the future. But I think, one day I might stop posting in the Adventure Arena and try the other categories. I've tried it before. That wasn't fun. I'm a very active person and I see Adventure Arena the most active out of most of the other categories. Perhaps Battle Arena too but the others can skip a few hours without anything happening. I find that whenever I come on a day later, Adventure Arena has a lot of RPs that have newly been posted in continuosly.

So in Conclusion...Probably not.
