Wow it's really been way too long since I even looked at this window! Problem is i'm feeling very restlessa dn really dont' feel like doing blogging tonight. BUT! Only 5 more days of school!! And I only have 2 more pieces of assessment, then 4 in testing week and then I'm all done! Do you know how good that feels? Well people who go to school with me will, and you boys who are already finished and having fun bumming around would know what it will feel like eventually :P I actually don't like you guys much at the moment! Except Darsh and Snoopy, who still have one more exam tomorrow.
GOOD LUCK BOYS!!!!!! ********** (<----Lucky stars da ne)
So! Yeah i actually dont' have much to write about.
Oh i got a job. Yes I actually have the BEST job ever....and I only work on weekends and it's fun and I love it. I'm a gecko girl! I paint faces and balloon model and supervise jumping castles and corporate events and birthday parties. OMG i love it so much.
*hugs to the best job ever*
Only 72 (?) days to go until Japan. I'm going to live in Eniwa (a city/suburb near Sapporo) in Hokkaido, and I might be going to school in Sapporo at a private school called Hokusei Gakuen (I don't know which one, there is a private girls school, and a university high school...but look them up they both look pretty amazing!) My family is 2 girls (Kokoro and Miki) who are 29 and 25, respectively, a father and a brother who lives somewhere else and rarely comes home to visit. SO! That will be awesome fun though, cause I'll get all different perspectives and get to go home and to school by myself and make friends by myself and it will be awesome!!!!
So exciing!!! But through my excitement, everytime I cross of on eof the countdown numbers I get sad and depressed and scared for a few days...so as they're getting slower together taht could become more frequent...so watch out!
OMG I NEED TO WRITE MY ROTARY SPEECH!! Must do that this weekend, ok? Don't let me do anythign until I have done it.
Hope you're all enjyoing the last few bits of school.
Look my up on facebook, that's how I'm going to keep in contact while i'm away, k? Goodo!
Love Always

Tonight....
I was sitting under the stars today. well....the clouds. But it was so nice...even though there weren't many stars because the clouds were in the way...but it's nice. It was nice and cool today though, and the breeze was a really nice feeling on my face...i dunno it was nice and it made your realise how....i dunno...how big everything is. I guess it's nice to just sit and not think about anything for a while. And I should do some english soon...
ah well!
japanese study....test tommorrow....see you later.
think about the stars and the clouds and wind ^w^

Rant
Time to use this blog like most people use them....to rant and be emo. But probably less of the rant because i'm not in the mood for typing lots.
i'm so sick of everything. grrrr...
It's so unfair. My parents "extended" my curfew to midnight when I turned 18, but then proceeded to message me at quarter past 11 to say i should have been home at 11 and then when i got home i got yelled at...i'm so sick of everything...
sigh....
thanks puddles and snoopy for letting me invade you guys again this weekend ^.^

New Goldfish!
We got new goldfish today! Well...I did...but there are two, but Ainslee doesn't want one cause then she'll forget to feed them...so I got to name them.
They're names are:
SHOES and SOCKS
How cute is that!
Here's a picture. I took a video but I can't upload it....hmm....
I know it's sideways...you'll live.
No depressingly fatal names this time! The white and gold one is socks, and the speckled one in the background is shoes

Finished story! (Long Post)
But They Didn't Know It Yet
Once upon a time there was a boy. Once upon a time there was a girl. Once upon a time there was a boy and a girl, who didn't know it yet but they were to become the best of friends. That's the beauty of being a writer, you know all these things the characters don't know yet. I call myself a writer because I'm hesitant to call myself an 'author', it sounds so official and gives the impression that I'm actually good at writing. Don't worry. I'm not.
Once upon a time there was a boy named Jason. There's no real reason he was called Jason, I just like the name. It's much better than 'Jarred', and suits a boy better than 'Bethany'. Jason wasn't your typical, macho, teenage footy-head. Actually he was the complete opposite. In fact, his favourite past time was doing maths homework and watching downloaded anime. Jason was 17 going on 18 years old and lived in a nice house in a nice suburb and went to a respectable school. He had a brother and a sister, both younger, but their names aren't important at the moment. He also had a mother and father, but their names aren't that important right now either, so maybe I'll tell you later on. He also had a very cute puppy named Jack. Jack was a black pomeranian puppy and he loved to go on long walks and bark at twigs that got on his footpath. Jack was exclusively Jason's puppy. His best friend had given it to him before she went away on her gap year. She'd thought he was the cutest thing ever, and warned Jason to take care of him cause she'd take him back when she came back home. Jason had laughed at her and and promised like a good friend should.
This is how the story ends: Once upon a time there was a boy and girl, who didn't know it yet but they were to become the best of friends.
The best thing about Miranda's room is the fish bowl. It is round and made of glass, just like the ones that you usually read about in stories. Of course, what usually defines them as 'interesting' is the fish that is usually contained inside the bowl. Miranda didn't have a fish. She thought it was cruel to put a poor, helpless goldfish in a tiny little bowl, so she freed hers into the pond outside.
Her mother doesn't have the heart to tell her she saw a bird snatch him up one day. (For the pessimists)
OR
She doesn't have the heart to tell her mother that she had set him free. (For the romantics)
OR
The fish now lives in the outside fish pond, happily feeding on insects and larvae, and is about 20cm long. His tail, he tells his friends, has become glossier since the move, and everyday he counts his lucky stars that he had a lovely friend like Miranda to set him free. (For the optimists)
Miranda loves to read. I think it's the idea of escaping to a different world, a different reality. That's how this story begins. Miranda is reading a book called...well, that's not important yet either. She's reading a book and when she turns the page the words have disappeared.
Jason was reading a book and when he turned the page the words disappeared. The book was called “Cinderella”. He only studies when he goes to school and so has no friends, and no understanding of the stereotyping that goes on there. He feels there are better things he can be doing with his time. Consequently, he has no qualms about me announcing to the world that he is reading “Cinderella” at the age of 17 going on 18.
What would you do when the words disappear from the page in front of you? And after you've flipped through the rest, only to see the rest of the book is empty? And after you've checked the front and seen that the words you have just read are completely invisible? I'd probably put it down and run from the room...quickly...but I'm a scaredy-cat and can't stomach that sort of thing. Jason had read other books like “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” by J.K. Rowling, and seen movies like “The Lakehouse” starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock where mysteriously blank papers had lead to marvellous relationships. He got out a pen (pencil was too risky and definitely not steadfast enough) and wrote:
Hello. My name is Jason Young. Is anybody out there?
Miranda stares in shock for a second. A book has never done this to her. She feels betrayed and abandoned. She slams the book shut and runs out of the room...quickly...
I lied before, this is how the story really begins: Once upon a time there was a girl, but her name wasn't Miranda.
Jason was disappointed. People always made magical connections like that in books and movies. He really began to regret taking this part in a mere story. He put the book back up on his bookshelf next to J.K. Rowling's “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets”, among others. In fact, if you flipped through any of the books on his bookshelf you'd find similar blank pages. All blank except:
Hello. My name is Jason Young. Is anybody out there?
So if there's no girl called Miranda, then what is her name? Jack chewed thoughtfully on Jason's slipper. That's what puppies do, among other things. Jason chewed thoughtfully on a licorice stick. That's what he did, among other things. One of the other things was homework, so he cracked open a textbook and began to read.
It's a sticky, boring day in class. Emma sits at her too small desk in her too small chair with her too many books and tries to wrap her brain around the question in front of her.
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Why does anybody give a damn? She certainly doesn't. Her page is blank. Well not quite, she's drawn a silly little scribble of a raven sitting on a writing desk, and she still can't see any similarities.
Emma's so sick of sitting at school. She wishes she could be at home, lying in her nice warm bed with the content bubbling of the filter in her fish tank beside her. Forget simplicity, this girl goes all out. Heaters, filters, living plants, tropical fish...you name it, she's got it. She names it and it's called Friday: the best day of the week, no catching a bus on a Friday, late night shopping with friends on a Friday, a black and white striped angel fish that lives next to Emma's bed.
Friday likes his tank. He swims around in circles all day, and because he forgets what he's just seen when he sees something new, every day presents a new world to him. He's the ultimate optimist. Blop, a castle! Blop, a tree! Blop, a big, funny pinkish blob that feeds me! Blob, food! Blop, a castle! Blop, a tree...etc., etc., etc..
Emma's mum yells up the stairs. Emma yells back at her. Blop, a loud sound...
Jack fell asleep on Jason's lap. He patted the puppy's soft, floppy ears automatically while he thought about the weather. It was raining that day, the day that Jack fell asleep on his lap. That's what puppies do, among other things. Rainy days, thought Jason, are perfectly marvellous. He chuckled as he read what he just said back to himself. It reminded him of A.A. Milne's “Winnie the Pooh”. Perfectly marvellous indeed. Speaking of “Winnie the Pooh”, Jason took down his old, battered copy of the book from his shelf. It still had words. There were two shelves in his room. The one on the left side was filled with books that were still able to be read. The one on the right only had books that had betrayed him. “Winnie the Pooh” was on the left side. I have a friend who is quite adamant about the way you read books. The covers should never be bent, and the pages should never be dog-eared. But if you read it like that then how can you tell the difference between a well loved book and a book of obligation? This book was obviously a well-loved book. The cover had been taped together several times, pages have been ripped and mended, and the cover was most definitely bent.
Jason flipped open the well-worn cover and began to read.
Emma chooses a song from her iPod and turns the volume right up. She can see the stack of homework staring at her from her desk, but chooses to read a book instead. I think it's the idea of escaping to a different world. She cracks open A.A. Milne's “Winnie the Pooh” and settles down in the comfort of her bed.
Blop.
Jason had a familiar sensation as he turned the page to find that the words were missing. He felt a slight pang of sadness this time around, he really liked that book. He automatically reached for the pen that he always kept close on his bedside table, but stopped before writing, leaving the pen hovering about a millimetre from the paper. Maybe the magic wasn't meant to happen to him. That was the moment that he realised that nothing around him could change if he didn't. He closed the book and placed it back in the bookshelf, on the right hand side of the room. Jack was scratching at the door to go out.
That's what puppies do, among other things.
Emma has fallen asleep with her copy of the children's classic lying open on her chest. She doesn't notice when the words disappear. She certainly doesn't notice that Jason didn't write anything this time.
Blop.
And that's the end of her.
I suppose it would have been simpler to start the story simply with this: Once upon a time there was a boy named Jason. He doesn't seem to have had much success with the ladies (girls?) I've introduced him to so far in this story. I guess that's what he gets for taking this part in a story that's not even written by an author. Perhaps I should keep my mind more open. Maybe girls aren't what he's interested in. Let's try something else.
Caleb is 16 going on 17 (to continue my cheesy musical references) with spiky blonde hair and jeans that are much too tight. He enjoys long walks on the beach, anything to do with Brad Pitt, puppies and 17 going on 18 year old boys...not necessarily all together...but there's nothing wrong with putting them all together either.
“WILL YOU STOP MEDDLING WITH MY LIFE?”
“I'M NOT GAY AND I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP TO FIND A GIRLFRIEND!”
I think I've upset Jason a bit. And I think he's missed the point of the story a bit. I don't even really know what the point is, but it certainly isn't to find him a girlfriend.
And I still didn't get to say my part about Caleb's fish tank, which is a rectangle with crisp, clean lines and a small school of neon-tetras floating uninterestedly around.
Or the part about how I think he likes reading because it offers an escape.
Oh well I should probably move on anyway. Jason looks pretty angry.
Jason had decided that it was up to him if he wanted his life to change. He was sick of sitting in his room, reading books and living in the hope that someone like him was out there, sitting in their room and living in the hope that someone like them was out there, sitting in their room and living in the hope that someone like them was out there...etc., etc., etc.
Jack was staring out the window wistfully. There was a pet store across the corner from the house where Jason and Jack lived, and he'd been eyeing off a particularly cute looking girl puppy for about a week. Jason never seemed to get the hint though, and whenever they went for walks he couldn't seem to get him to stop at the pet shop, even for two minutes. He tried the routine again today. Jack scratched on the door and whimpered a bit. Jason put his lead on and took him out the front of the house, and Jack ran towards the pet shop. But today there wasn't any resistance from the other end of the lead, and he raced towards it with new found ease and excitement.
Jason had decided that it was up to him if he wanted his life to change. He had grabbed Jack's leash and tugged him out the door, as he walked with purpose towards the pet store on the corner. He had decided it was time to get a pet fish. He was thinking along the lines of a simple, round goldfish bowl with multicoloured pebbles and a little statue of a pirate ship, and one of those black, googly-eyed goldfish that would swim around in circles discovering new worlds every 3 seconds and saying “blop” every now and then. But definitely no crisp, clean lines.
Jack could hardly believe what was happening, his dream was coming true! They headed towards the pet shops door almost running. He saw the pretty girl puppy in the window and sat down in front of her, staring wistfully (Jason had tied him up outside while he went fish shopping). He was so happy, he couldn't even raise the courage to get her attention. He decided to sneak and away and cross the road again, to see if she noticed the second time. It reminds me of that cheesy pick-up line: “Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?”
He ran across the road, shook himself a bit and stepped out onto the black gravel road.
A truck came roaring past.
This was a story about a boy and girl, who didn't know it yet, but they were to become the best of friends. And now, i suppose, they will never know.
And by the way, Jason's family never really became important, but in case you were wondering their names were Emma, Randal, Emily and Rick.
I guess this means I lied about the end of the story too. I didn't make any promises though, and I did warn you. After all, I'm not an author or anything you know...

Heya
Heya! I don't know what I'm gonna write about today....hmm just feel like i should because it's been a while.
I'm feeling a bit confused at the moment....i can't really say anymore because it's my problem and not anyone else to worry about, but it's not anyones fault or anything...i'm just being a bit confused. i don't really know how to fix it though, so i just curl up in bed and read hp for about an hour after school every day....which usually leads to either falling asleep or feeling worse because harry is so annoying and he's still being ridiculously angsty! hehe.
On a sadder note....my other beloved goldfish died on tuesday night, Guildenstern. He was the cutest goldfish and i was a bit upset because i really liked him and i thought he was ridiculously cute...but i know stuff happens and i'm sure i'll get another goldfish at sometime, hopefully sooner rather than later ^^ maybe on saturday when we go see the simpsons i'll drag someone to the pet shop to help me choose one...cept they never have very nice goldfish in there. There's a really good place to get goldfish in fyshwick, but that a bit of a way out.
Well being back at school is okay, it really isn't that bad...i just feel like i've been back a lot longer than 4 days!
Oops that reminds me i have to go and practice for ensemble tomorrow...wait i left my bass at school....damn.
Oh well i'll go and take a quick look at it on my normal klarinetten. Before i go i'd just like to say: sorry for missing you this morning AJ! and i've been listening to that song for the last 24 hours almost non-stop!
and also, sorry shu *hugs*

Very Sweet!~~
My Third post for the night...I know I'm going a bit over the top. I might change my song too.
Email that's going around...
When a GIRL is quiet ... millions of things are running in her mind.
When a GIRL is not arguing ... she is thinking deeply.
When a GIRL looks at you with eyes full of questions ... she is wondering how long you will be around.
When a GIRL answers "I'm fine " after a few seconds ... she is not at all fine.
When a GIRL stares at you ... she is wondering why you are lying.
When a GIRL is laying across your chest, listening to your heart beat ... she is thinking that she wants you to be hers ... forever.
When a GIRL wants to see you everyday... she wants to be pampered.
When a GIRL says " I love you " ... she means it.
When a GIRL says " I miss you " ... no one in this world can miss you more than that.
Life only comes around once make sure you spend it with the right person.
Find a guy ...
Who calls you beautiful instead of hot.
Who calls you back when you hang up on him.
Who will stay awake just to watch you sleep.
Wait for the guy ...
Who kisses your forehead.
Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.
Who holds your hand in front of his friends.
Who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you.
Who turns to his friends and says, "That's her!! "

Hey guys!
It's been a while I know that. But I haven't really had much to talk about (I'm not really that interesting :P) Anyway....2 days left till my birthday!!! 3 sleeps. My mum always says to count in sleeps cause you always have to sleep the night before the thing you're waiting for. Anyway! I don't really know what to write about...I'm gonna....I'll find some videos to post up here from YouTube.
Actually! The lyrics for "Raspberry Beret" by Prince...I'm listening to it at the moment ^.^
1 2 1 2 3
Yeah
I was working part time in a five-and-dime
My boss was mr. mcgee
He told me several times that he didnt like my kind
cause I was a bit 2 leisurely
Seems that I was busy doing something close 2 nothing
But different than the day before
Thats when I saw her, ooh, I saw her
She walked in through the out door, out door
She wore a
Raspberry beret
The kind u find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldnt wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
Built like she was
She had the nerve 2 ask me
If I planned 2 do her any harm
So, look here
I put her on the back of my bike
And-a we went riding
Down by old man johnsons farm
I said now, overcast days never turned me on
But something about the clouds and her mixed
She wasnt 2 bright
But I could tell when she kissed me
She knew how 2 get her kicks
She wore a
Raspberry beret
The kind u find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldnt wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof
And the horses wonder who u are
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
U feel like a movie star
Listen
They say the first time aint the greatest
But I tell ya
If I had the chance 2 do it all again
I wouldnt change a stroke
cause baby Im the most
With a girl as fine as she was then
(raspberry beret)
The kind u find (the kind u find)
The kind u find (in a second hand store)
Oh no no
(raspberry beret)
(and if it was warm)
Where have all the raspberry women gone? (she wouldnt wear much more)
Yeah (raspberry beret)
I think i... I think i... I think I love her
(raspberry beret)
No no no
No no no (the kind u find)
(in a second hand store)
(raspberry beret)
Tell me
Where have all the raspberry women gone? (and if it was warm she)
(wouldnt wear much more)
(raspberry beret)
I think I love...
hehe it's a nice song...catchy-like ^.^
Anyway! Now I'll go find a video. This, by the way, is how to fill up a blog post when you have absolutely nothign to say!!!!
Hehe, how funny!
Anyway I just found that!
Have fun!
Love Sa-chan *hugs*

My Random Post-Modernness ness. Untitled. Possibly unfinished.
Once upon a time there was a boy. Once upon a time there was a girl. Once upon a time there was a boy and a girl, who didn't know it yet but they were to become the best of friends. That's the beauty of being a writer, you know all these things the characters don't know yet. I call myself a writer because I'm hesitant to call myself an 'author', it sounds so official and gives the impression that I'm actually good at writing. Don't worry. I'm not.
Let's begin with the boy. Once upon a time there was a boy named Jason. There's no real reason he was called Jason, I just like the name. It's much better than 'Jarred', and suits a boy better than 'Bethany'. Jason wasn't your typical, macho, teenage footy-head. Actually he was the complete opposite. Most of the boys I'm best friends with are pretty nerdy and sensitive type guys, so I guess I base a lot of the characters in my story around them. Jason was 17 going on 18 year old and lived in nice house in a nice suburb and went to a respectable school. He had a brother and a sister, both younger, but their names aren't important at the moment. He also had a mother and father, but their names aren't that important right now either, so maybe I'll tell you later on. He also had a very cute puppy named Jack. Jack was a black pomeranian puppy and he loved to go on long walks and bark at twigs that got on his footpath. Jack was exclusively Jason's puppy. His girlfriend had given it to him before she went away on her gap year. She'd thought he was the cutest thing ever, and warned Jason to take care of him cause she'd take him back when she came back home. Jason had laughed at her and and promised like a good boyfriend should.
This is how the story ends: Once upon a time there was no boy named Jason, and there was no girl named Miranda.
The best thing about Miranda's room is the fish bowl. It was round and made of glass, just like the ones that you usually read about in stories. Of course, what usually defines them as 'interesting' is the fish that is usually contained inside the bowl. Miranda didn't have a fish. She thought it was cruel to put a poor, helpless goldfish in a tiny little bowl, so she freed hers into the pond outside.
Her mother didn't have the heart to tell her she saw a bird snatch him up one day.
OR
She didn't have the heart to tell her mother that she had set him free.
OR
The fish now lives in the outside fish pond, happily feeding on insects and larvae, and is about 20cm long. His tail, he tells his friends, has become glossier since the move, and everyday he counts his lucky stars that he had a lovely friend like Miranda to set him free.
Miranda loves to read. I think it's the idea of escaping to a different world, a different reality. That's how this story begins. Miranda is reading a book called...well, that's not important yet either. She's reading a book and when she turns the page the words have disappeared.
Jason was reading a book and when he turned the page the words disappeared. The book was called “Cinderella”. Most of you probably aren't familiar with “Cinderella” being called a 'book' as opposed to a 'story' or 'fairy tale'. I can hear you tapping your feet indignantly and shaking your heads. But this is why I called it a book and not a story: In the same way that I am not an author, and this story is not a book, “Cinderella” is a magnificently crafted piece of literature that has withstood generations of telling and retelling, and I feel I owe it much more credit than to call it a 'story'. Jason only studies when he goes to school and so has no friends, and no understanding of the stereotyping that goes on there. He feels there are better things he can be doing with his time. Consequently, he has no qualms about me announcing to the world that he is reading “Cinderella” at the age of 17 going on 18.
What do you do when the word disappear from the page in front of you? And after you've flipped through the rest, only to see the rest of the book is empty? And after you've checked the front and seen that the words you have just read are completely invisible? I'd probably put it down and run from the room...quickly...but I'm a scaredy-cat and can't stomach that sort of thing. Jason had read other books like “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” by J.K. Rowling, and seen movies like “The Lakehouse” starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock where blank papers had lead to marvellous relationships. He got out a pen (pencil was too risky and definitely not steadfast enough) and wrote:
Hello. My name is Jason Young. Is anybody out there?
Miranda was shocked for a second. A book had never done this to her. She felt betrayed and abandoned. She slammed the book shut and ran out of the room...quickly...
I lied before, this is how the story really ends: Once upon a time there was never a boy named Jason or a girl named Miranda.

From Vonne's Blog
Getting to Know You
1. If you could build a house anywhere, where would it be?
Erm...probably Canberra. I dunno I like Canberra! And I'd rather jsut travel even if it was for long periods of time, but always be able to come back her to my family and Canberra's really comfy.
2. What's your favourite article of clothing?
Shoes, definitely. *waves flag*
3. Favourite physical feature of the opposite sex?
I dunno....hair i think. Boys have such cool hair...*sigh* I'm getting mine cut on Wednesday.
4. The last cd you bought?
Happy Feet Soundtrack I believe.
5. Where's your least favourite place to be?
Hmmm hard one. I don't like complete darkness..actually let's change that: a rollercoaster. I hate them!
6. What's your favourite place to be massaged?
My dad does the best back massages, which is good cause my back gets sore a lot. Although they aren't really back massages as much as back "digging thumbs into the sore parts with as muach pressure as possible" because I don't really have that much feeling in my back.
7. What's most important -- strong in mind or body?
Mind obviously. Though if someone was equally both they'd probably be very popular.
8. What time do you wake up in the morning?
Weekdays: 6.30. Weekends: Well yesterday I was up 9, and then today I got up at 11. It really depends on what I have to do.

Hi, It's been a while!
Hey guys! I know it's been a very long time since I actually wrote anything! But I'm not going to catch you up too much, just try and find some interesting things to put on this entry.
Oh btw, I've decided what i'd like to do when I go to uni, Bachelor of Asian Studies/Bachelor of Music. It'll be fun, but I'm sure it will be hard work!
Anyway! How about some cool stuff! Oh I know. My nan bought me this really pretty locket for my birthday....I really want to put a picture of it up but I can't find one! So you'll just have to wait till my birthday so I can show you all! It's very pretty though! And I got a cute purple dress, like it's bright purple! But I can't have it till my birthday so maybe I'll wear it out for my birthday dinner!
Lots of people ask me me what I'd like for my birthday so I decided to make a list on here gradually over the days as I think of things. There're lots of CDs I'd like: a "very best of" - Elvis and The Beach Boys, Mika wouldn't be too bad either. There's this really cute teddy bear in the quilting shop in Tuggies and it's a panda bear called Ting and it's been there for like years and I've always wanted it....sigh it's very cute. So if someone wants to get me something and is willing to spend more than $10 on me (which is okay if you're not!!!) then you could go have a look there. Tuggies is really the place to be. You guys that never go to tuggies don't know what you're missing out on~! GO TO TUGGERS RIGHT NOW! Just go and have a shop! They have the cutest clothes and stuff there anyway! Geeeeez.
Anyway that'll do for now. I don't really know what I want. I like things that are jokey and made and photos are nice and I'd rather jsut have fun with us all around. I need to get a small and usable digital camera for my party (yay that's going to be so much fun!!!!)
Okay!
I'll post again later I should be doing composition/musicology folio.
Byebye!!!!!!
Love Always Sa ^.^
A picture for your thoughts (so cute! the world's smallest teddy bear!!! I think it's 5mm tall)

Today
Today was a very nice day. Actually it started at about 8pm last night, when Darsha and I went to see Spiderman 3...it was an okay movie, but it was really long...almost 2 and a half hours, and it's only a SEQUEL!!! Anyway, in the morning my mum and I went shopping and to Goodberries and had these nice chocolate fudge brownie sundaes that they put in big glasses like real sundaes, not like the pretend plastic ones. And then Darsha came over adn we watched Happy Feet and made a caramel slice. Then....i slept on the couch for a while cause I was tired and then went to give Darsha a bit of the caramel slice we made (we had to wait till it set before we could cut it up.)
Then I came home and watched Chasers, cause I missed it on Wednesday, and the replay on Friday, but it's on ABC2 on Sunday's at 8.30 for a second replay, so I got to watch it tonight. But I also subscribed to the podcast thign so I can watch it on my computer after it's been aired. It was pretty funny actually. I reckon John Howard does really well when the "target" him, he does pretty well. The Sheik guy got really angry at them though...like amazingly angry.
Anyway! The nice weekend is over, so I think I had better go and listen to music adn savour what's left...
Love Sa ^.^

somebody send me a big hug, cause i've had a shitty day...let me rephrase that...a shitty month.
in completely unrelated news: HAPPY BIRTHDAY PUDDLES!!!!

Funeral Blues
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
-- W.H. Auden

I want to be six again...
I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult. I have decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of a six year old again. I want to go to McDonald's and think that it's a four star restaurant. I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make ripples with rocks. I want to think M&Ms are better than money, because you can eat them. I want to play kickball during recess and paint with watercolors in art. I want to lie under a big oak tree and run a lemonade stand with my friends on a hot summers' day.
I want to return to a time when life was simple. When all you knew were colors, addition tables and simple nursery rhymes, but that didn't bother you, because you didn't know what you didn't know and you didn't care. When all you knew was to be happy because you didn't know all the things that should make you worried and upset. I want to think that the world is fair. That everyone in it is honest and good. I want to believe that anything is possible.
Somewhere in my youth...I matured and I learned too much. I learned of nuclear weapons, war, prejudice, starvation and abused children. I learned of lies, unhappy marriages, suffering, illness, pain and death. I learned of a world where men left their families to go and fight for our country, and returned only to end up living on the streets...begging for their next meal. I learned of a world where children knew how to kill...and did!!
What happened to the time when we thought that everyone would live forever, because we didn't grasp the concept of death? When we thought the worst thing in the world was if someone took the jump rope from you or picked you last for kickball? I want to be oblivious to the complexity of life and be overly excited by little things once again. I want to return to the days when reading was fun and music was clean. When television was used to report the news or for family entertainment and not to promote sex, violence and deceit. I remember being naive and thinking that everyone was happy because I was. I would walk on the beach and only think of the sand between my toes and the prettiest seashell I could find. I would spend my afternoons climbing trees and riding my bike. I didn't worry about time, bills or where I was going to find the money to fix my car. I used to wonder what I was going to do or be when I grew up, not worry about what I'll do if this doesn't work out.
I want to live simple again. I don't want my day to consist of computer crashes, mountains of paperwork, depressing news, how to survive more days in the month than there is money in the bank, doctor bills, gossip, illness and loss of loved ones. I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, justice, peace, dreams, the imagination, mankind and making angels in the snow.
I want to be six again.
yeah it's a quote from somewhere, thanks to darsha for finding it *hugs*

1. Are you currently mad at someone?
Nope! I'm very happy at the moment ^w^
2. Which of your family members has the worst temper?
Probably me....mm...i dunno, we're all pretty equal. I get mad the most often, but i don't tell them...mum get's annoyed quite a bit.
3.Have you ever thrown something at anyone?
Umm....i don't think so...other than paper at Shyam...(HE STARTED IT!!!)
4. Is anyone mad at you?
I don't think so....
5. Are you usually mad?
Umm...when something unfair or bad happens maybe
6. When you're mad do you prefer to stare angrily or yell?
Stare ANGRILY

1. Has anyone ever thrown a surprise party for you?
Yep! Darsha and Lulu and peeps gave me one last year for my birthday ^w^
2. What event is coming up that you're most excited about?
Today at Darsha's house...and the girls sleeping over tomorrow!!!
3. If you won a million dollars, what would be your first thought?
"...is this for real? YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"
4. If you could have anything right now what would it be?
Wake Darsha up *smiles evilly*....nah just kidding. Talk to Uru-chan or Shrubi....make it later in the day so I was doing something instead of waiting for stuff to happen. Oh if I could have anything? How about the million dollars in the previous question? ^.^

New Skin Again
The other one was annoying me cause I couldn't get into any editing stuff or anything! So, I changed it again. But at least it's nice and colourful.
First day of the holidays: Good so far! Everyone left the house except me. And I went to Woden for a little while, bought some of those multi-coloured texta pens (so cute!) and got some passport photos done because my application is due tomorrow for the rotary exchange! But the photos look pretty bad....*sigh*...I can't help being unphotogenic!
Anyway then I came home and tried to start making a teddy cept the fur is so amazingly thick I broke 4 needles in half and hour! So i stopped doing that. We have to go buy some EXTRA TOUGH needles so I can finish it. It's a really cute colour though, sorta like a caramel...golden browny colour. A bit like Winnie the Pooh!
I saw Hobitto-chan today too! She works at the arts and craft store at Woden so it was nice to see her again and catch up!
The rest of my day was spent lazing around doing nothing...so far ^.^ Watching the Prestige again later tonight with Darsh...when he comes home from the wedding thing -_-"...jokes ^w^
Anyways! I'll probably post about the other bit of my day sometime later tonight if i'm not too busy/tired/all of the above.
Bon Voyage to Shrubi! Miss you lots! Tell us allllll about it.
Love Always,
Sa ^w^

New skin?
So what do you all think? I think it's pretty cute! My only problem is there's no blogger bar thing at the top so i have to navigate in a roundabout way. But it's still cute!
Happy Holidays!
Happy Friday the 13th!
Sorry I'm tired so I won't write much.
See you later!!!
Love Sa

Are You Watching Closely...?
Hehe so I'm watching "The Prestige" again, sigh, I love it. It's a really good movie. You should all go watch it right now!!!
Only 2 more days till holidays!! And I don't have any more work for these two days since my creative task was due on Friday and then everyone complained because they're too lazy to have done their work and so it got moved to the first day of the holidays...meh i don't really mind that much because I have already mostly finished. (^w^)ツ
Omg, i just got shivers again cause it's sooo sad! His wife just died.... (-_-)" Sigh...it's a really interesting movie. Go watch it right now. Anyways! I don't have a lot to say. Umm, Vonne came and visited us at school today. It was pretty nice to see her. She looks just like she used to. Which isn't that amazing considered she only left last year.
Anyways. Ooh I know. I'll make it beefier by putting one of my poems on here. I think it's quite nice It's based on Shakespeare's Sonnet 18: "Shall I Compare Thee..." •^.^•
Shall I Compare Thee...?
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
...Or an autumn...or a winter?
And would you still compare to stormy day in spring?
Methinks you would.
Thou art more lovely and more temperate than most days of summer or winter:
Those are the extreme months with overbearing heat or unbearable cold.
Methinks it is more realistic to compare you to an autumn's day.
Thou art as lovely and as temperate.
And like the autumn leaves which turn brown and fall to the ground,
And are trodden on by passers-by,
You will grow old and your beauty will fall,
And people will pass by you with no more than a sideways glance.
Is this the nature of beauty and of life?
It will happen to everyone, child, husband and wife.
Whatdya think? It's my attempt at a Modernist poem. For my creative task. Yay (^w^)ツ*
Anyways. I'll leave you all alone now!
