I haven't posted for AGES!!!!!!
Though I'd better... so here I am!
Not dead like you all probably thought I was.
Okay, what is there to say... well it's a new semester and I don't have Forensic Science anymore, woop! You people have most likely had enough about me bitching about the damned subject, but now I have a new burning hatred for a subject...
Maths.
And not Adolescent Health, which is strange, but yeah. *Is a loner in Ado Health*
Anyway... what's up everyone? Anything remotely interesting or new happening??

Sorry Everyone

2008-06-15T07:16:24Z

I know, it's been ages since I last updated, so you can hate me all you want.
The other day I had three exams T_T
I haven't been completely idle though. I regained my muse!
My writer's block has vanished and my little car of muse can continue chugging along the highway 8D
I also went shopping yesterday with Rach and went and saw Shutter. It wasn't as good as I'd thought it'd be, but it was scary :S
Hahaha, I bought a DVD and it cost me $22.95, something like that and it was utter C.R.A.P. Rach, how's that book?

Anyway, I thought you'd like a sample of what my new and improved muse can do, so here it is...

It has been told there is a library, a library where all the secrets of the world are revealed in, which the alive can dream about and only the dead can go to. That was the only rule. It is unknown the true reason why only the deceased can visit The Library, but there has been many a theory on the myth, such as that the ultimate questions of life have simply been a test of faith by god; to see whether or not one was competent enough to view the books there, and that those who believed that god had ‘a plan’ would find the answers of life at The Library. Another was that The Library was just a name to call the physical state one would be in on the brink of death, where one would experience the recovery of all memories, the memories forgotten about life and the world that one was born with, but had not comprehended. But regardless of these theories, there was never any hard proof that The Library ever existed, in present time, or past.

Camrin had always been the focused, hard working man. Currently twenty-four years of age, he had a stable teaching job at a university lecturing the subject of History. He was also a strong believer in education and would become highly agitated if any students were chatting during class, but apart from that, his life was easygoing and simple. Thus, it came as a surprise when one of his students inquired about The Library. The innocent enough question had been asked privately, in the safety of Camrin’s office one night when he’d been working late. The rapping on Camrin’s office door jolted him out of his work. ‘Who’s there?’ he demanded as he swiveled around in his chair, slightly ruffled by his unexpected guest. The door opened and the student appeared. Camrin ran the image of the girl through his mind and recalled her from one of his History classes. Damn, what was her name again? ‘Oh. Hello, what can I help you with?’

The girl brushed her hair back with her hand. She looked nervous. ‘Um, I’m from one of your classes, Mr. Wrighte,’ she explained timidly, scantly sparing a glance at the teacher.

Camrin nodded, more to himself in reflection than to agree with the girl. ‘I’m sorry, but what was your name? The classes are quite big….’

‘Ana,’ she replied quickly.

‘Then, what can I do for you, Ana?’ Camrin asked, leaning back a little in his chair.

Ana took a step forward, clearing the path of the door as she closed it behind her hastily. ‘Sir, you’re a historian, right?’

‘I am,’ the teacher replied flatly.

‘Uh…,’ she thinned her lips, ‘I was wondering if you could explain to me what The Library was.’

The Library? It was nothing but a myth, a fairytale, wasn’t it? It had nothing to do with history except that a few ancient cults and perhaps some modern ones had practiced in the belief that there was such a place when a living being died. Of course the reasons of The Library had varied over time and if someone was to compare a modernized version of the story to an old one there’d be little similarities. ‘Where did you hear about it?’ Camrin inquired casually.

‘I’ve heard rumours…,’ she said darkly. ‘…Do you know much of them?’

Camrin reclined further back in his chair. ‘I know that little is actually known about The Library, but honestly, I have to know what triggered this impulsive question.’

‘I’ve heard many people talking about it, and it has been circulating quite a bit recently. Why do you ask, sir?’

The teacher sat up a little, as if what Ana had just said sparked his interest. ‘Hmm, that’s odd. Well, just think of The Library as a single brown rock amidst millions of grey ones. It’s fairly hard to find, and there isn’t much about it.’

‘Okay,’ Ana’s brows furrowed. ‘Then, what’s odd?’

‘The Library isn’t well known, and it is just odd that it’s suddenly becoming the most talked about subject in the school. Don’t you agree?’

‘…I suppose.’ She didn’t look convinced. ‘So, what exactly is The Library?’

‘Here, sit down,’ Camrin said, motioning Ana to a seat at his fellow teacher’s desk. ‘The Library was believed to be a place the deceased visited before ‘crossing over’, it is said to have books containing the reason of life and things like that...'

A/N: There's probably going to be more to that last conversation, but I've just started so...I guess if you want I'll continue posting it.

See you later!

Surprisingly Stupid

2008-05-26T06:04:50Z

The poeple in my maths class....are extremely racist.
I'm not sure if they just think it's the 'popular' or 'cool' thing to do nowadays, but quite frankly. It isn't. It's more stupid than cool and it's pissing me off.
Sorry I haven't been posting for a while; I've so much to do!
Lesson of the Day: Never underestimate stupidity.

Lesson of the Day: Never take your friends for granted.
Question of the Day: What would you do if I died?

Today I read something in LJ which triggered a deep thought mode in me...
This LJ user had been killed in an accident by another's stupidity, and that person hadn't even stopped or come back to help, let alone turning themself in to police, so now I'm in a strange mood which made me value my friends and family quite a lot. All which came to the conclusion that I needed to tell those who I cared about exactly that.

I'll post tomorrow and put something up from blogthings, but for now...my brain needs to think. (And also think up a reasonably good plot for a story...)

LOOKIE LOOKIE WHAT I FOUND!!!

2008-05-14T08:46:36Z

What You Really Think Of Your Friends

(No one) is your soulmate.

You truly love (no one).

You consider Rachel your true friend.

You know that Kelly is always thinking of you.

You'll remember (no one) for the rest of your life.

You secretly think Josie is creative, charming, and a bit too dramatic at times.

You secretly think that (no one) is colorful, impulsive, and a total risk taker.

You secretly think that Dearna is loyal and trustworthy to you. And that Dearna changes lovers faster than underwear.

You secretly think Bianca is shy and nonconfrontational. And that has a hidden internet romance.

I think this is so true, this is exactly what I feel about everyone...save for Bianca's 'internet romance', but hey, you never know!
This is from a site called www.blogthings.com I think. I'm taking a wild guess here so forgive me if the lnk isn't right, but it's definitely called 'blogthings'.
There were too many boxes and I didn't fill some in, so the no one's are...well, it's self explanitary ^__^

God, I haven't posted in ages! Sorry everyone, but my life's been a little hectic and I'm going through a strong, unrelenting case of the fatal 'writer's block' *le-gasp*!!!

Hell's Kitchen

2008-05-01T06:32:42Z

Wasn't good last night...I'm disppointed.But the regular Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares is on tonight, woop! Three nights of Ramsay, can you handle it?

Lesson of the Day: Don't underestimate stupidity, or it might come back and bite you in the butt.

Question of the Day: Why can't Forensic Science just be eradicated? Why, damn it, WHY?!

I'm currently home alone, my sister just left and mum...should be back soon.

Hmm...I need to type up that damned essay about the Aboriginals and finish writing that damned story about them too, I just hate work in general, lmao. Below is my essay if you would like a read:

‘Nobody helped me,’ – Aboriginal woman featured on channel Seven’s ‘Today Tonight’.

Everyday life is simple; work, eat, drink, sleep and repeat. You have loved ones who care about you and you love and care for them in return, but what if you had just been wounded by something – or someone? More than likely someone would come to your aid, correct? That’s what you’d expect, wouldn’t you?

But what if nobody came? If you were ignored – even on the side of a busy road, how would you feel? Pretty bad, huh?

Even worse when you suddenly find out the reasons behind this is actually because people think you’re just a drunk Aborigine who’s probably unemployed and poor.

A ‘Today Tonight’ report revealed a sickening story about an Aboriginal woman left to die on the side of a busy road during peek hour traffic. Nobody came to help her or even bothered to stop and ask whether she was okay; which is outrageous, and not to mention pathetic.

What right do we have to make such petty assumptions and judgmental behaviour? It’s as if, if one Aboriginal is a drunk, we immediately label all Aboriginals as ‘drunks’ when there are clearly just as many ‘white drunks’ as there are Aboriginal ones.

So then, why should we think that?

What ideas or ‘basis’ do we have to think such low things about Aborigines?

Is it because the odd few act out? But that’s only to be expected – ‘white’ people act out too, so why do we aid them when they’re injured and not Aborigines?

Perhaps it’s an issue about colour or culture, but it shouldn’t be. How would you feel if one day you were watching television and some new strange foreigners arrived unannounced and took over your place/home – telling you how to live and how to act? How would you then feel if they didn’t care whether or not you lived or died – in whatever circumstance? How would you feel if they thought you were a drunk – thanks to the few in your community (some you don’t even know)?

Why is it that when we look at each other, we only see the differences?

Bree.

Okey dokey artey chokey...the next clickie clickie link is the story...

Untitled 1
By Bree

I venture into the threshold cautiously, looking left and right for any signs of life. I step in a puddle and the water spills out of its neat boundary carelessly, but I ignore the fact that my foot has become wet and continue looking for any movement or disturbance in the area. I walk along the dirt road like a ghost, searching, yearning…There is only one possible description for this desolate place, only one that describes the empty houses, streets and deafening silence that resides here. Dead. Sepia spills into my vision and a strong gust of wind flows through me, from sepia comes the dull colours that I’d seen before.

“Jack! Jack!”

I open my eyes and rub them automatically. “Matty? What is it?”

He looks frantic, definitely not my usual little brother. He tugs at my pajama sleeve insistently and tears well up in his eyes.

“Matty, what’s wrong? What happened?” I inquire, sitting up in bed to lay one hand on his small shoulder. Had something happened to mum and dad? Amy? Bottom line: I was worried. Poor Matty looked as pale as anything.

“Pammy…next door…the Aboriginals took her away!” Matty looked as if he’d just wet his pants, poor kid.

I blink. Why wasn’t he talking in English? We never had to speak that language without the presence of an Aboriginal. The tugging became more forceful.

“Hear me? Pammy was taken, we’re next!” Matty exclaimed.

Pammy…? Oh right. Pammy?! Oh god. I grab Matty’s shoulders firmly and turn him so that he’s facing me properly. “Are you sure?”

Matty nods, he’s trembling. “I heard the screaming this morning, looked out the window and I see-ed it all.”

See-ed…he meant saw, the poor kid still wasn’t used to the language. We had been taught it in school for the ‘future’. “Does mum and dad know?”

Matty nods again. “We’re next, aren’t we?” he asks again, fists clenching at his sides. He’s only seven (turning eight in one month), it wasn’t right for a little guy like him to be so scared. “We’re next, we’re next…”

I frown. “We’ll be okay, alright?” I reassure him, though I don’t know how I can, seeming how I can’t reassure even myself. Our town was pretty small, but the Aboriginal government found us anyway, apparently they were locating all the towns so they could ‘reissue’ the children with new homes. Hell, I feel like an animal. The government just wanted the girls to marry off and have babies, and the boys to go hunt and/or train for the army. TBC…

Bad, good?

Gah...forgot to post yesterday

2008-04-30T06:21:12Z

Sorry everyone! I didn't manage to post anything yesterday, but today I shall *hero pose*
Today was so damn cold plus I didn't bring my jumper so I was freezing my ass off! Luckily the classrooms are nice and warm...
AH!!!!! That reminds me, crap, crap, crap, crap, crap, CRAP! I have to finish this thing...I won't specify what this 'thing' is exactly...but it's very important.
Hey Rach, enjoy those dicks on your arms, fingers and hands? Lmao.
Lesson of the Day: BRING JUMPER ON COLD DAY.

Band

2008-04-28T13:08:52Z

Went to a different high school for band. Practiced for three hours...*_*
It was so boring, and the concert at the end wasn't even good. Hardly anybody showed up, it was downright digraceful!

Lucky!

2008-04-27T10:15:10Z

Yesterday was fun! Albeit a little crazy and spaz...it was awesome ^__^
Gah...school tomorrow...but I found my permission slip for band tomorrow, so I think I'll go. Bugga.
Oh well, at least I'll miss out on school for two days in a row because we have athletics day the very next day, eheh. How lucky are we?
Sorry Rachel!!! Eternal apologies, I'm leaving you with our other friend in health, sorry!!!
I kinda feel guilty now...

Just another Saturday arvo

2008-04-26T04:28:14Z

I didn't have to go to the 'Caravan and Tourism' show today, wooop x 2!
Going to Rachel's tonight for a movie night, yay! But I'm really pissed that Dearna couldn't go, bugga.
So after my major bitching session yesterday, I'm back to my normal self ^__^ *applause*
Crap, I still have to eat some of that left over rice and chicken from Thursday...*goes to fridge*

Anzac Day

2008-04-25T09:31:54Z

Lest we forget.
Apparently my mum, dad and sister all went to the dawn service when I was in bed. Heheh. So I'm not a dawn type of person, I still highly respect those who died for our country, and those who disagree can piss off.
Once two of my friends (shall not be named) said they didn't care about history (one of these friends just copies the other and gangs up on everyone else) and that they didn't give a damn about the Stolen Generations and they didn't want to learn about it. All I could think of was: 'Would you care if you were part of it?' they only seem to give a damn about themselves, how pathetic. Wow, some of my friends are real assholes...I think I need to renew them. One of them came to this country when she was two and still isn't an Australian Citizen, that's fine, but not respecting those who fought for our freedom here is utterly ridiculous. The other has the lowest self-esteem ever and always wants to pick fights with me and I don't know why. This friend thinks that every boy I try and make friends with or just chat with is my boyfriend and shit and the other one joins in as well, and when I confront them about it and tell them I don't want them remarking about stuff like that, they get pissed at me and twist it around as if it's my fault. What have I done to deserve this kind of treatment? This 'friend' is really nice to me when it's only her and I in a class, and yet when we're in a group she always tries to picka fight or make herself feel more superior by saying 'whatever' when she has it wrong and I correct her.
Lesson of the Day: Lest we forget.
Question of the Day: Why is my friend threatened by me in our group?
Wow, this is quite a big post for somebody who just writes random things, eheh.

Vantage Point

2008-04-24T12:48:32Z

Wasn't good as I would've hoped. I don't think I could really sit through it again, it was kind of boring.
Shopping was good, me and Rach lmfao, bought Rush Hour 3 on DVD, yay! I can't wait to watch it ^__^
I'm so tired and my legs don't want to take me anywhere right now, lol.
Lesson of the Day: Choose your friends wisely.
Question of the Day: Even when you're friends with someone, can you still tell them to mind their on business?
*Yawns*
Rach, please continue playing tennis with me or I'll have to give it up myself T_T.

Not such a bad day

2008-04-23T08:32:03Z

It is said that: 'in times of need, you realize who your real friends are', and that is absolutely correct. I walked off on Sam and talked to a girl I talked to earlier and thought was nice, and it worked out perfectly. Albeit he didn't talk to any of us at recess...oh well. He just annoyed me to no end and didn't really think about my feelings. Bottom line: he was self-centered.

Anyway, enough of my problems...

I just finished up playing tennis tonight; it was good, but I suck at it :P
I'm currently trying to weasel my friend Rach into doing the term after this one because she's thinking of giving it up T_T Please don't!!!

Lesson of the Day: In times of need, you realize who your real friends are.
Question of the Day: Why is it I can't find a good-GUY friend?

New

2008-04-22T06:48:54Z

Second day of hanging around in a different area with *new* friends, plus the old ones.
It was rather awkward at first...but I think it's slowly fading away, save, Sam *really* pissed me off and I ended up slapping him on the head with my trusty pencil case a few times, woop!
Oh right, I forgot to do this yesterday, so I'll do it today...
Lesson of the Day: Only take one pen with oneself when with Sam, hide in pocket or just clutch it closely at *all* times.
Question of the Day: What should I write about? My school's having a story writing competition kind of thing...but I'm at a loss for a plot. Help?
I haven't started making a header for you Dearna, but I promise that I will, I *promise*!
Rach, want a new header?

Open Night

2008-04-21T11:51:51Z

Was...boring.
Dearna, oh my god I hope Mr. Veevers can fix your clarinet :(
The band didn't suck as badly as I thought, but we still sucked...
Sorry, this isn't much of a post...

Marilyn...

2008-04-20T06:28:11Z

Lesson of the Day: Never try and have a staring contest with a plant. You're not going to win.

Question of the Day: Where are some good places to visit other than the theme parks in Queensland?

Today I was dragged out to go to Bunnings...woop.
I glared at everything that moved--including the plants swaying in the wind innocently (they SO have something to hide, I swear...) . I was going to buy a bonzai tree...but they're so damn expensive, so I gave up. Ha! That reminds me of a few episodes of PoT when the tenipuri grandfather has a bonzai tree called Marilyn which always gets messed up in one way or another. He loves the tree more than his wife and she gets her revenge...in violent ways, heheh.
I suck at writing--I've decided--I have somany ideas I want to put down on paper but I always mess it up in someway or I can't think of any characters to go with it. Bleh, meh, che...as you could probably tell, I'm having one of my bipolar-ish moments...for brief moments I feel so happy and I want to run around and scream and laugh, but then straight after I just crash and I don't want to do anything, I feel really down and I feel like life is the worst thing ever. I hate hormones...

Anyway, I've--as you can see--started posting 'The Question and Lesson of the Day', so I hope it amuses my readers. Heeh.

Let's see...

2008-04-19T07:41:26Z

To be perfectly frank...I don't know what to type. I didn't do anything today save from sitting on my ass and do nothing.
...I have pasta for dinner, lmao.
And...I think dad wants us all to play cards (pontune, not sure how to spell it, but it's exactly the same as Blackjack). Mum always ends up winning, and my sister and I keep ending up with 'Mini-Piles' TM. Lol.
How about you?

Twilight Concert

2008-04-18T09:02:32Z

Well...the Twilight Concert was on today. How...riveting.
There was such a bad turn out. Hell, there were more people last year (and that hadn't been many).
To be honest...I think we LOST money, rather than received it, which is utterly pathetic.
Apart from that...my day was pretty damn boring. But the good things are that it's Friday, I'm getting a good dose of fast food (haven't had any for a while) and...that's about it. Which reminds me...my mum was really pissed off at my sister because the past week or so my sister hasn't been home much; she's been at her boyfriend's house most of the time, or with him someplace. I was going to try and text her and tell her...but she left her bloody-freakin' mobile at home. Fool!
I had the awkward-est conversation today between two friends, some guy and the head of the music department. None of us really wanted to talk to him and he kept coming up with all this crap which wasn't very funny. I have to feel at least a little sorry for him because nobody likes him...

Today was a blast...

2008-04-17T07:07:09Z

I dropped pasta sauce on the carpet today :S
Bad, very, VERY BAD.
Anyway, Rach, I have your header here <a href="http://s280.photobucket.com/albums/kk179/squishythejellyfish23/?action=view&current=love_reject3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk179/squishythejellyfish23/love_reject3.jpg" border="0" alt="rach"></a>
It's...one of those links, lmfao.
Now, to put it on your journal you have to go here: http://community.livejournal.com/s2howto/52241.html

It'll tell you how to do it, so read everything there, yeah?

Anyway, I hope you like the header.
Ahh! School tomorrow, bugger, bugger, bugger!

See you!

Again and again...

2008-04-16T06:00:27Z

Today I felt like throwing up. Yet again.
We had cross country--I'm not fit--and I kept running and I bolted on the last part which ultimately caused my sickness.
Rach, do you want me to make you a header?? I'm really in the mood to make one...
Ne, Dearna, do you want one??

What the hell, why not? Does anyone want me to make them a header??

I feel like throwing up...:S

2008-04-15T08:47:25Z

Post got your attention? Lmfao.
My eyes are droopy, my stomach canes and my head aches....
I just came back from Camberwell, woop...so very, very boring. But I DID manage to find inspiration there though :)

I haven't much to say today...I feel kind of down.

Thank you for reading.

I remember!

2008-04-14T06:53:10Z

Oh yeah, I just remembered to put this post under a LJ cut so that Rach and Dearna could see, lol.

Isn't this cool??
ANyway...I got another request for beta-ing today, woop! I'm so excited, awesome-ness all around.
Today was really boring, really, really boring.
Movie, nothing, maths and then the dreaded band.
And I think my throat hates me at the moment...
Oh my god...I've found my new love! The movie '5 Centimeters per Second' and the ending theme to it!!!
That's all for now!
