Well the exams are done and my birthday has come and gone, got an Ipod shuffle and on the weekend getting a double bed, thank god too cos my feet poke out of my current bed. Were slowly gettin our exam marks back and WTF!! 12/20 for my Bladerunner and Brave New World essay, that essay was a freakin work of art, the English teachers don't know what there talkin about.
Only 5 weeks of school left and then no more forever. Apart from that nothing else is going on in my life, I'm so boring!Current Mood:  weird Current Music: Catch My Disease- Ben Lee |

Well I made past the first week of exams stress free, my PE/H/PE assignment was pretty good (PE is actually one of my strong subjects). The weekend was pretty sweet also, Friday night was fun, went to a friends 20th where we all hung out and drank at his house then went to Zone3 for the night and coming back to his house for pizza and more drinks, if anyone's wondering my team won 2/3 games whooo!
Saturday I came home at 9:00am from my friends place craving a shower and some brekky and after my family went off to my brothers soccer game I was left alone watching "Pimp My Ride" on MTV and fell asleep on the couch for a couple of hours,awoke and then was off to work. Saturday night was also pretty cool, We went to see "Kung Fu Hustle" which I think is a hell stupid movie, but this night was different for we had a new passenger in the car with us, one of byron's friends from work, "Victoria", she was pretty cool and i'm going to assume hell weirded out by our jokes and rants in the car but I think warmed up to most of us by the end of the night.
Sunday was different to most of my other Sunday's, I actually did something. I went to my mum's and sister's semi-finals soccer matches, my mum lost and my sister won so I guess she'll be playing the finals next week (which is on my birthday!!) Tomorrow I have no exams so I get to sleep in on a Monday morning which is a rareity, though I do have Chemistry on Tuesday and Biology on Friday, both should be ok.Current Mood:  calm Current Music: Goodnitgh Julia- The Seatbelts |

With the week coming to an end I thought a post was necessary. Busted out a sweet English Advanced paper on Wednesday, 3 essays in 2hrs all 3pages long and with what I think is excellent content though I did bullshit my way through the "King Lear" essay. I told myself all day Wednesday that I will study for maths but I kept get sidetracked (eg.. watching TV, playing video games) and when the test came around today I went pretty crappy but not as bad as I thought (thankyou yr11 geometry that I learnt last year) but I will be happy if I just pass.
Tomorrow I have PE/H/PE which is an entire different ball game to Maths and English, and it's actually a subject I like and I'm good at. We got a new bass player for Big Band he rocked up last night at rehersal and just sight read our charts, he's real good and he plays the double bass too *swoon*
Friday night should be, going to a friend's 20th and the Zone 3, though I have a feeling were just gonna drink and eat pizza at his house instead, but hey it's all good anything to get my mind off our Trail exams. I can either study tonight or goto my Wing Chun class so those who know me already know my choice.Current Mood: relaxed Current Music: What Planet Is This- The Seatbealts |

Ok, so it's the day after my first HSC trial exam and I guess I went alright except for the creative writing section, I was halfway through writing it and just read over what I had already wrote and was all "this is shit" I could've started again or try and get this train wreck back on track, I chose the lata and I dunno I still think it's pretty lame but we'll see.
Tomorrow is the 3 essays on: Brave New World/Bladerunner, King Lear & Frontline, so hopefully I will do better than the test on Monday and after that is maths! yay (if you can't tell i'm being sarcastic) Luckily theres a light at the end of this dark matter tunnel I have 12days until I'm 18 which is pretty cool.
Anyway I'll keep you posted on my exams and after my exams I think I have a mini-golf game with someone *wink*Current Mood: happy Current Music: Ask DNA- The Seatbelts |

Well what a weekend, Saturday I awoke quite early (9:30) only to be told by Jimmy (big brother) that Oose, Dan himself and I were going to the Mall to see "The Island" which is a pretty good movie, worth the $15 I spent for the ticket. But before the movie I wandered down to "Big W" to buy a pair on "Dunlop Volleys" which to my disappointment they had non, what they did have however was a pair of "Converse All Star" sneaker impersonation for only $15 so I bought them instead.
Saturday night was just us again chilling at Byron's playing "Super Smash Brothers Melee" on Gamecube, us trying to get Danny to finish off a bottle of "Jack Daniels" and us yelling at byron for not knowing that "James Earl Jones" was the voice of Darth Vadar, nerdy yes but come on who doesn't know that (normal people I guess)
Sunday was also a good day,I enjoy Sundays because my brother,sister,mum and dad all go off to Soccer leaving me behind with the house to myself so I took this afternoon to train (of course) and polish up my "Long Pole" form even more not to mention both my "first form" & half of my "second form"
I also had a gig at the "Music Room" with the Big-Band it was alright, I left afterwords not seeing the other shows, just wasn't in the mood. Something interesting happened to me tonight, both my mum and dad said I should take up ballet, yes ballet, apparently I have the correct body/muscular type and because of my "Wing Chun" training have good balance and co-ordination. This being said I told Oose and Cheese of my future career to be, and Oose works with a girl who has done ballet since she was like 3 so either oose gave her my msn or she asked for it or whatever, Oose is pretty keen on her so I should put a good word in for him if I talk to her again. I can see why he's keen on her, she's hell smart, oose tells me she's a hottie and get this she plays video games, this is a rare breed indeed.
Anyway I got double maths on tomorrow morning :( so i'd better get to bed soon.

I leant and practised more of my "long pole" form and it's looking pretty good I also had my first sparring match on Wednesday night and I was forunate to be paired up with Adam who went easy on me (I got some good hits in still) Work in the last 3 days has been awsome, I just go in my boss does her thing and leaves at about 4:10 and I'm left alone with my music blaring and doors closed doin my thang. Unfortunetly I made a crappy bet with Mess but he'll forget in time. Thats about it I guess

Well long time no post eh... It's been over a week since my last post a some stuff bein happening.
Last Saturday our Big Band had that "Christmas In July" gig it was pretty good, we played alright and we got a free meal and eggnog which is the seediest alocholic drink ever created for a holiday, I also $35 for playing which was a nice suprise.
Tuesday I went back to school, my body was not ready for me waking up at 7:00 plus it was fuckin freezing that morning, It was like my brain was up and ready to go but my body was just "ohh fuck off!" but when I finally got up I spent 20min the the shower. Anyway school was alright no big news or anything. Wednesday was the same aswell as Thursday, though on Thursday night at my "Wing Chun" training I got my first taste of the "Long Pole" and I liked it, abit hard at first but i'm sure i'll catch on.
If any of you readers caught my last post I was "supposed" to be learning how to juggle, well did I leave this assignment to the last minute, the day it was due I started AND! finished it (thank god for my double free), plus it's not some half-arsed job i'm pretty happy with my work. Unlike some students who got 25pages *cough* Nina! *cough* I only did 5 but you know what they say "quality over quantity" Which reminds me of a good story to backup my argument.
We got our bio assignments back to which some chicks in my class did 6+ pages where little ol me did only 2 pages and when the results came back who beat most of them, the guy who did 2 pages, haha!!
Now thats schools back the weekends are the best part of my week, 2 days of doing nothing, seems to good to be true. Though maybe I might do a little study, our Trail HSC exams are on in a month.

Another day another entry. Well today was pretty bland, woke up pretty early (11:00) bummed around though I actually got alot of my PE/H/PD "Sports Medicine" homework done in the afternoon, not the best idea to leave it to the last minute. Got home from work and then straight off to Sound Kitchen (Big Band) rehearsal were I was surprised to see Layne Visser (a music teacher at my school) to be conducting us and just helping us out with our pieces. We have a pretty important gig coming up on Saturday night for some Christmas in July thing at the Golf Club, anyway rehersal was pretty long, about 4hrs so my lips are pretty sore. But apart from that a pretty adequate/lazy kinda day. Now for tomorrow where I have to learn to juggle for a PE/H/PD assignment and yes I have also left this one to the last minute and have no idea how i'm gonna pull if off. FUN!

Well thats it, no more OC for a long time, pretty emotional at times, the funeral scene and the intervention scene hit me the most. And whats the deal with leaving on such an intense moment I want closure dammit. I also found out that the TV guide got the times wrong for "Taken" on Channel 9 so i missed an hour of it, grrrr,

Well my first enrty, where to begin, well it's now the second (and last) week of the holidays and I have done jack-shit study though last Friday I did do that Chemistry homework cos Mr Seymour scares the crap outta me and he's the last person I want to annoy.
I got up at about 12:30 which i'm loving cos I barely ever get a good sleep-in. When I got out of bed to have a shower I swear I saw Pat McDivett in my lounge room watching TV and when I got out of the shower he was gone, my suspisions were soon anwsered by my mum who said he WAS in the lounge waiting for Jimmy(big brother) for some band thing. Anyway I had a pretty sweet breakfast though mum chucked abit of a spaz cos for the past week i've had bacon &/or 4 eggs on toast, last time I checked mum eggs were good for you.
After breakfast my day consisted of bumming around, oh!! I watched "The Cronicles of Riddick" on dvd which is a sweet movie, Riddick must be one of the most bad ass dudes ever! Work was the usual deal got out at 5:00 which was pretty cool. If any of you readers are wondeing whats with the name of this entry it's because I'm gonna try to put a song name and the title and link it with what I did today. If any of you have seen Alex Lloyds's music video for his song "Coming Home" it's hell sweet, pretty much just a guy running across Australia which links to what I did after work.
5:30, Tuesday, like clockwork there I am down at the footy feilds running my ass of and doing other such sweat inducing exercises, if anyone was wondering the goal posts on the mini feilds make great chin-up bars, I can do 10 chin-ups with a 1min break and then another 10 which I reckon is pretty good considering my arm size, I wonder how i'll go if i keep doing it.
Well I guess thats it for my first entry, The OC Season 2 finale is on in about 15min so I'll post my thoughts on it afterwards but don't worry cos I'm also taping "Taken" on Channel 9 which is a hell sweet show.
