cracks me up every time... just thought i'd mention that... if you haven't heard it... you should!

M1V1f + M2V2f = M1V1i + M2V2i

german, geography, physics, chem, maths.
they're my subjects next year. fun fun fun!! [just thought i'd join in on the complaining about how subjects/ leadership positions are the only thing we talk about these days... fyi, i don't want anything next year :P]

SUPPORT NATIONAL PLAIT DAY THIS FRIDAY!!
wear plaits, braids, or pigtails this friday to show your support for our group's weirdness *cough* i mean, in support of... err... no i can't think of anything else it's supporting ;o) pretty much, just coz we feel like it! and to see how many people actually end up wearing plaits/ braids/ pigtails... so yeah, wear them!! [or any other way you can have 2 bits of your hair bunched together...] it'd be better if all of us do it...

why does nothing interesting happen anymore?? i actually don't have anything to blog about... oh well... thanks for the suggestions of paired texts!!

changes...

new postsecret pictures up... and i just felt like putting a pic in my blog... so yeah...

unfortunately, i don't remember what this post was going to be about. don't you just hate it when that happens?? hmm... blast.

today is nic's 16th birthday. HAPPY BDAY NIC!!!

guess what? i'm trying to quit msn. so far, my plan is going well. i have been appearing offline [ie, lurking] for quite a while now, i don't remember the last time i was actually online... i guess it would have been thursday... so yeah, while it isn't quat [what the past participle of quit should be] as such... it's on the way to being quit. it's kinda like getting smokers to quit [MARGARET!!!] -- you can't just take them off nicotine [if that's how you spell it - i'm so educated about smoking after all...] straight away, you gotta do it gradually. so, this is my gradual getting rid of msn. let me tell you something... it IS possible to not go on!!

anyway, today... hmm... i don't even remember what happened today. assembly went way overtime, maths we didn't have mrs bain we had mrs hammond, german we had weird buzzy mothy things in the classroom and they were kinda freaky... then we had recess = studying for chem. then we had our chem test. which wasn't so bad i guess, i totally bombed out on the empirical and molecular formula question and on the stochiometry [however you spell that ridiculous word] question, but oh well, that was only like... 7-9 marks i think... so that's the minimum i lost... hmm... oh well :) then i had english let me ask, WHAT is the point of making us memorise poems, or analyse poems? how is that possibly going to help us in our future lives? seriously? how many of us will have to memorise some crazy old woman's rants about the environment in our jobs? [i don't really like judith wright's poetry lol] argh, so incredibly annoying. and stupid. as is our paired text study. i pose the question again; has anyone read Knowledge of Angels and has an idea of a text that could be paired with it? and for those of you who haven't read it, any ideas of what could be paired with a book about:
- a child who was stolen by wolves then raised by them, then taken by humans and sent to a convent to discover if there is an innate knowledge of God
- a prince from a country so far away that the people of this island haven't even heard of it is washed ashore after falling off his ship (?!) is pretty much told; convert from atheism to one of the three religions of this island [one of them being Christianity] or you will be burned to death. Some priest fellow tries to convert him and they have all these in depth discussions about christianity and the basis of it and stuff...

uh yeah, so. any ideas?!? [don't forget, they can be contrasts as well as comparisons... :) it is kinda due in week 9... it being week 6 right now... aaaaand i haven't done any of my supporting study yet...]

is there a reason?

you are my curds, you are my whey, you're in my cereal everyday...

they were the lyrics of a song we heard driving back from subway tonight... does anyone know the name of the song..!??! coz i did a google search... but it returned NUTHIN.

ok i actually have nothing to post about... i'll post tomorrow, right now i'm going to sleep!!!! wow so pumped about it!

stay tuned for the next exciting episode of sez's life... "changes..."

lil bow wow's all growed up!

lawson has a blog now : www.lawsonland.blogspot.com this post is for the benefit of those who do not notice the constant changing of my links field, nor read comments on other people's blogs... do the guys really read our blogs?? see now we have no idea about that, coz NOBODY comments!!!! [well ok some people comment and i am truly grateful for you guys] but nobody else apart from the regular ppl...HINT HINT!!

in other news, the radio just said [yes, it spoke] 'he used to be lil bow wow, but now he's grown up, so now it's just bow wow' wouldnt you think that that would defeat the purpose of having established a name for yourself?? its a pretty bad song anyway...

"Do not fear death, but rather the unlived life.You don't have to live forever. You just have to live." -- Tuck Everlasting

here's a cool poem i found while searching google for 'the lamp lighter' as a paired text for 'knowledge of angels'. anyone read knowledge of angels and has any recommendations for pairings..?? coz i'm pretty much stuck.

The Lamp Lighter
I know what it's like to wait in the dark,
to hover in silence alone;
I know what it's like to lose all your faith,
to cower with dreams overthrown;
I know what it's like to weep with despair,
to think that it's no use to hope;
I know what it's like to tremble in fear,
to feel at the end of your rope.

But I've learned there's a lamp up in Heaven
that illumines the blackest night,
and if you pray from the depths of your being,
it will burn with magnificent light.
For this heavenly flame will be kindled
by the wonderful power of prayer,
and though you may think it's not tended,
the Keeper of the flame's always there.

I know that sometimes it seems hopeless,
you feel like you might as well quit,
but hang on with all you can muster,
believing the lamp will be lit.
Kneel down in the midst of your shadows
and pray for a light in the dark,
then look toward the sill of Heaven
and patiently wait for the spark.

...wow...that really is kinda what you guys have been saying, but yeah... its a beautiful poem anyway...

friends are supposed to talk to each other

emma just made the biggest mistake of her life. ever. she revealed her secret blog... haHA! now we can all go and read about your crazy adventures... anyway, the address is www.smothspot.blogspot.com and i shall promptly add you to my links list.

anyway, just reading through Emma's blog, i found one post in particular, saying that for her the sun is starting to come out. i'm finding exactly the opposite tho this - the sun is permanantly behind clouds, with moments of thin cloud sometimes appearing. these are the times when i'm 'happy' - the momentary loss of those negative thoughts which dominate my life. while others are finding that our group at youth is becoming closer knit, i feel as though i am being excluded from that knit, as though my non-attendance at youth has made me drop the stitches which were holding me in the youth 'scarf'. While school has improved, re friends, i am certainly don't feel entirely accepted there. once upon a time i had a nice little 'niche' - i had my youth friends, who were like my best friends, i had this nice little place at youth, everybody was my friend, our little group was flourishing. at school i was accepted by most people, especially by the 'cooler' part of our group, becasue i had tim. and tim. well words can't explain how good he made me feel i mean when i was with him i was on the top of the world, we never ran out of things to talk about, we totally understood each other, and yeah we just 'clicked'. that was my niche. everything was just so perfect [apart from the small school issue, but that was just small]. then tim died. suddenly i had nothing. everything good in my life was just taken away so suddenly, leaving only the bad. gradually, the wonderful niche at youth got filled in, till i found myself on the outer, looking in, just as it was when i first started going to youth. suddenly, half my friends started actually being my friends, and those who had once been friendly, were no longer quite so friendly. and i found myself with no tim. nothing to look forward to. i never again got to look forward to the time when i could talk to him. i never again got to spend time with him. i never again got to sneak off to the drink fountain during breaks of godspell to have a quick smooch. [i mean... we were certainly only ever getting drinks from the fountain lol] i lost all purpose in my life. no friends, no tim, no god, no nothing. i had my family still, but what good were they? mum cried more than i did, simon stayed in his room all the time, dad just said "oh well" and didn't understand why i was upset. i felt deserted by god. i've put all this in the past tense, but it's really all very current. it's all in present tense. i have dropped the stitches of my youth friendships, and no matter how hard i try, i can't seem to pick them up. i've dropped some stiches of my school friendships, managed to partly pick them up, and managed to pick up other stiches i long since gave up hope on. i've dropped the stitches on my friendship with god, i never talk to him now, nothing i do is for god anymore. i was talking with andre tonight, i [well we] was thinking... aren't friendships supposed to be a 2-way thing? well talk about a 1-sided conversation! we 'talk' [ie pray] to god, but aren't friends supposed to talk to each other? and if you try saying that well god has given us the bible, he talks through that (a) that reminds me a lot of Volvobot, [volvospace@hotmail.com - add 'him' and have a great conversation...] a whole lot of preset responses, which may or may not apply to your situation, and (b) what proof do we have that the bible is speaking the truth? what proof do we have apart from those other records of jesus? what proof do we have that god keeps his promises? an example i used in our conversation; i could tell you that for breakfast i ate an english muffin, and that for lunch i ate my phone. what proof do you have for either of these statements? i did eat an english muffin for breakfast, but, surprisingly enough, didn't eat my phone for lunch. but how would you know which was true, and which wasn't? you have the high probablility of the first, and the low of the second, but apart from that what do you have? you have word of mouth, but only mine, given that no one else was in the room. do you know what i mean? and just going back to the talking thing, friends are supposed to talk to each other. it just seems like we're talking to the air. "have faith". what use is a statement like that? really? why would we talk to the air, really? it's like saying well i can talk to my teddy bear, and i know that she will make everything better, just becasue she doesn't talk back doesn't mean that she won't fix everything once i'm dead. i mean, you can put faith in anything [yes, elizabeth, even inanimate objects...] i want jesus to be my friend, but how can he be if i can't talk to him and get to know him? so many people miss out on getting to know great people just becasue they don't talk to them, how are we supposed to get to know jesus? my reception teacher, on i reckon my first day of school said to the class 'ok, we're going to pray now, and if you listen hard enough you'll hear god talking back to you' [direct quote... ok so it's been 12 years, big deal, i remember it like it was yesterday... well not quite...] but i have never been able to 'hear god talking back to me'. ever. i know that some people have miraculous experiences of god, but what about the rest of us? these people with an unfailing faith must have something, mustn't they? and saying "just pray about it" won't work this time, because i can't pray to something i don't believe is there. what is the point of talking to thin air? really? i just don't know anymore. i just want to give up. what is the point?

listening to: Songs for Silvermen - Ben Folds, Reanimation - Linkin Park [+various artists]

eating cucumber sandwiches, drinking english tea, while riding on seahorses through the desert... at lottie's secret lair...

it is very difficult to braid your own hair. extremely difficult. expecially when you are wishing that instead of being awake, up, showered, dressed, and ready for school, you were in bed, fast asleep... however, such are the sacrifices for ones clan. today was clan choral, and, [of course...] cameron won... *shakes fist... then fist gets tired so sez shakes other fist. and head. and nose. and both feet. all at the same time* anyway, not surprising given that they had GREASE!!!! i mean, come on!! GREASE! they were really good, and speeney's group solo was very good indeed :) but yeah... after weeks of hard work... on other ppl's parts... everyone was really really good :)

sarah sehr laut!! i said sehr sehr laut lol so yeah...

anyway, about the title, as louise and i were walking home this arvo, lottie, chief/chieftan [you think i know?] of cameron drove up, neither of us had ever talked to her before, she came up and said 'do you girls want a ride?' and we were like 'nah, thanks anyway!' then, given neither of us had ever talked to her before, and because really nice, kind people don't exist in this world, we figured she wanted to kidnap us and take us to her secret lair where we would eat cucumber sandwiches, drink english tea, while riding on seahorses through the desert... we didn't have choir, so the freedom was kinda going to our heads... :P anyway...

listening to: Get Born - Jet [in particular 'Timothy' - its a really sad song about the i think lead singer's older brother who died when he was really really young :( ] and also Still Not Getting Any - Simple Plan [who are GOOD dave, they're AWESOME.]

taters...

here are two quite amusing video things... the first called 'They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard' which, if you listen closely, has a dance version of the lotr song i can play in the background. the second is called 'Mashed Taters' and is also rather amusing... watch them both... then watch the llama song... makes everything seem so much better...

the repetitiveness of life...

day after day, week after week, year after year, we sit at school and learn useless information "for our futures". how many times, i wonder, will we use the quadratic formula when we're dead? when are we going to need to know about the tensile force of a truck pulling on a tree stump? will we really care when we're 129 whether a precipitate forms in adelaide water? [which i don't doubt will happen] what is the point, really? it just keeps on going. and going. and going. and there is no point.

listening to: the radio... "i love the music on Nova in winter! it's a lot like the music on Nova in summer!! woohoo!"

no will to live

STARS by switchfoot - new album out on september 13th [my half bday and what would have been mine+tim's 6 month]

Maybe I've been the problem
Maybe I'm the one to blame
But even when I turn it off and blame myself
The outcome feels the same

I've been thinkin' maybe I've been partly cloudy
Maybe I'm the chance of rain
And maybe I'm overcast and maybe
All my luck's washed down the drain

I've been thinkin' 'bout everyone, everyone you look so lonely
But when I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars
I see someone else
When I look at the stars, the stars
I feel like myself

Stars looking at our planet,
Watching entropy and pain
And maybe startin' to wonder
How the chaos in our lives could pass as sane

I've been thinkin' 'bout the meaning of resistance
Of a world beyond our own
And suddenly the infinite and penitent
Began to look like home

I've been thinkin' 'bout everyone, everyone you look so empty
But when I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars
I see someone else
When I look at the stars, the stars
I feel like myself

Everyone, everyone you feel so lonely
Everyone, ya everyone you feel so empty
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars
I feel like myself
When I look at the stars, the stars
I see someone

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

I know exactly what you are:

An incandescent ball of gas

Compressed into a solid mass

[if anyone knows the 2nd verse of this can they comment? comment anyway but]

the smartness of feet...

How Smart is Your Right Foot?

This is so funny that it will boggle your mind. And you will keeptrying at least 50 more times to see if you can outsmart your foot, but you can't.

1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand.

Your foot will change direction...I told you so .....And there's nothing you can do about it...

*********************************************

Interesting! The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be. Here are some facts about the 1500s:

These are interesting...Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and still smelled pretty good by the following June. However, they were starting to smell, so brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom todayof carrying a bouquet when getting married.

Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The manof the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all theother sons and men, then the women and finally the children, last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water."

Houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with nowood underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm, so all the cats and other small animals (mice, bugs) lived in the roof. When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall off the roof.Hence the saying "It's raining cats and dogs."

There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house. This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could mess up your nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some protection. That's how canopy beds came into existence.

The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt. Hence the saying "dirt poor." The wealthy had slate floors that would get slippery in the winter when wet, so they spread thresh (straw) on floor to help keep their footing. As the winter wore on, they added more thresh until when you opened the door it would all start slipping outside.A piece of wood was placed in the entranceway. Hence the saying a "thresh hold."

(Getting quite an education, aren't you?)

In those old days, they cooked in the kitchen with a bigkettle that always hung over the fire. Every day they lit the fire and added things to the pot. They ate mostly vegetables and did not get much meat. They would eat the stew for dinner, leaving leftovers in the pot to get cold overnight and then start over the next day. Sometimes stew had food in it that had been there for quite a while. Hence the rhyme, "Peas porridge hot, peas> porridge cold, peas porridge in the pot nine days old."

Sometimes they could obtain pork, which made them feel quite special. When visitors came over, they would hang up their bacon to show off. It was a sign of wealth that a man could "bring home the bacon." They would cut off a little to share with guests and would all sit around and "chew the fat."

Those with money had plates made of pewter. Food with high acid content caused some of the lead to leach onto the food, causing lead poisoning death. This happened most often with tomatoes, so for the next 400 years or so, tomatoes were considered poisonous.

Bread was divided according to status. Workers got the burnt bottom of the loaf, the family got the middle, and guests got the top, or "upper crust."

Lead cups were used to drink ale or whisky. The combination would sometimes knock the imbibers out for a couple of days. Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and the family would gather around and eat and drink and wait and see if they would wake up. Hence the custom of holding a "wake."

England is old and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people. So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a "bone-house" and reuse the grave. When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. So they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the "graveyard shift") to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be "saved by the bell" or was considered a "dead ringer."

Ode to Readers of Blogs who don't Comment

coz comments aren't old
in actual fact,
comments are gold!!


you think this is not important, why?
coz if you don't comment, you will get pregnant and die!

[thanks to lib for the extra 2 lines :)]

ok so maybe it's not the best poetry i've ever written, but hey!! my point is, until you actually get a blog, you will never know how much comments are appreciated so yeah, PLEASE COMMENT!!! it doesn't take that much effort to click the little 'comment' link you know... [btw, even one word comments are appreciated, seriously]

so yes, yesterday was an intense day of puddling, which caused some of us [ie elizabeth in this photo...] to go slightly crazy... then we have sumi and margaret... so yeah, then we have emma and elizabeth darn it all now you all get to see our delightful school uniforms...they're GREEN [in case you couldn't tell] [its so we can blend in with the grass/trees/tennis court to get out of lessons...or....something...] and this last pic is a kinda trippy one, its ghosts in the water!!! ooooooohh!! [that was supposed to be a ghost-like noise...didn't realy work eh?] its actually [clockwise from left]; sarah, emma, margaret, louise, and i so yeah... i was going to put this other pic up too, but elizabeth didn't send it to me... *heaps guilt on elizabeth* *guilt guilt guilt!!!* na it's all good i'll just post it tomorrow or something... or in fact whenever i get it... meh... argh such a weird mood am i in right now... quite odd...

"lets throw waterbombs on libby's party!!"

this, i thought, was rather an amusing postcard [the new ones are up at PostSecret]...so i always mark that i'm eskimo... heh heh heh.
anyway, last nite i had my 'we're bored, lets have a party' party, which was originally supposed to be a video night...but we didn't quite watch a video... so anyway, ppl arrived [amazing!] then we just kinda hung round for a while, playing pool etc then we ordered pizza [3 pizzas for $10!! so good!!] and then jess and me and nic went on an adventure. we went to the wrong dominos!!! oops! so yeah, we were there for half an hour, and asked them three times how long the order for 'mary' was going to be, yet it was only on the third time that they told us that the order for mary was, in fact, at the malvern dominos, and that we were at the wrong dominos. so we raced back to my place to spread the bad news... then raced out to malvern. we collected the pizzas [this was about oh, 8:30? and we still hadn't had dinner!!] and after having one piece each because we thought we deserved one i mean, they were all sitting at my place eating chips while we were sitting on a hard bench, with the smell of greasy pizza wafting out to us...*sniff* anyway, so we got home and the pizzas were devoured [btw, there were still 2 whole pizzas left hehe] and then we...hmm well ppl started attacking others with the rug, which was err...interesting... and yeah, then we decided to go get joel so that nic could ask for his autograph... ok then... so yeah, we all sqeezed into 2 cars [lawson took nic and g, and andre took phil, jess, dave and me] and we went to joel's. as we pulled up...joel + family pulled into the driveway lol that was amusing... anyway, because "joel's a bum" he didn't come with us, but we went up waterfall gully rd, and when we got to the top, there was a station wagon parked there, lights off...wink wink nudge nudge... then yeah, when we got there it turned its lights on and drove off...we let it pass us, then we chased it lol which wasnt really a laughing matter but anyway and we were gonna air horn it if we passed it, but when we got to the end of the rd...a cop car drove past so we thought we'd better not lol. anyway we went back to my place after that episode, and then someone said something about the party lib was at... and then lawson i think said lets go crash her party!!!!!!!! but some ppl were against it [in all of this i was neutral btw] then after a bit of 'oh come on!!!!' it progressed to 'well, since the cop car was probabaly looking for it, they were probably going to break the party up, so while they're doing that, we can waterbomb the party!!!!!' but again, some ppl were opposed to that. so in the end, they just started making [they being the guys, jess and i were pretty quiet lol] weird animal noises at the people who were on this balcony thing. the only thing was...that's where a girl from school lives... [jess roach]... so yeah... lol i really hope that she was out last night... but yeah then the party kinda wound down after us all arguing with lawson about whether animals have feelings or not, and then everyone left around about 11:45 ish... so yeah, that was my party it was fun, and a good time user-upperer for a saturday nite... :)

jumping in puddles

well. today was interesting [actually not really, i'm just saying that] but the point of this post is so that i can put some PICTURES up woohoo!! coz we, instead of going to clan choral at lunch and L7 [optional for yr 11's and 12's - i'll do it nxt yr but not this yr, just to prove a point, given i've been forced into house choir/clan choral for the past 4 yrs...] anyway, so we were puddling. and that is all i shall say ;o)

SO here come the pictures... this is margaret and me umm not much else to say about it...margaret...well she acts like that a lot...what does that say?? then on the right is elizabeth and louise [louise looking kinda weird, but i think the idea is that she and elizabeth were dancing round in a circle...] OOH and you know what else these photos provide for all non-seymour ppl who read my blog? an INSIGHT as to what my school looks like... ok so the pic of margaret and i, thats the assembly hall in the background [i think cameron were practising in there] and in the background of the elizabeth/louise pic is the lower level of abbie building with the trees which are useful backrests and kinda decent shade providers sometimes...specially good as backrests when you take the beanbags out of the common room and sit on them but anyway. and so. this is sarah 1 and sarah 2 and there seem to be an awful lot of pix of me on my blog...and especially on this post...hmm...ah well. ok and this is another pic of me and louise. and yeah, behind us is the assembly hall, ok so you can't really [i nearly just spelt can't with a 'k'...] see it very well but oh well :P and uh yeah, that's emma and i, in front of umm a noticeboard?? well i know where the noticeboard is - its on the bottom floor of abbie just right of the stairs [the ones in the middle...the steep ones...ugh...] anyway....on the right is...the paparazzi [or however you spell that word...] taking photos of emma standing on the rail lol well actually margaret's taking photos of her, elizabeth is attempting to juggle her lunch and her video camera, but the thought was there lol... ok and then on the left is a pic of carmen...i don't think she really likes photos that much... but muahaha i got a pic of her anyway oh well i reckon it looks kinda cool but i guess that might just be me...behind her is upper lab and lower lab [guess which is which?!] and, last, but certainly not least, is this delightful pic of margaret and i, after eating jelly babies...heh heh heh...we're slightly crazy... anyway, i was even instructed what to write underneath this picture...'GRRRR...MEOW!!!!' [coz that's what margaret was saying...crazy psycho...lol] so yeah...

ok, and party-wise, umm nothing more has been decided since last nite...its gona start at about 6 or 7 [depending whether we want dinner or not] and go till 12 [non-negotiable, if we go elsewhere it'd be ok but u know] and yeah... i guess it'll be a rushed job tomorrow, but there's definately a party @ mine tomorrow for youthians [sorry school ppl!! i promise i'll have a school one sometime!!] AND i reckon, for my bday nxt yr, i'm just gona have a massive [alcohol free] party with all youth friends and all school friends and all other randoms i've picked up round the place lol so yeah that shld be good...WRITE IN UR DIARIES MARCH 11th for my bday party ppl :D [it may or may not happen, but at least you've had a warning...]

listening to: hot fuss - the killers, X&Y - coldplay, demon days - Gorillaz [non-burnable...grr...]


and, to finish off, i would like to ask a very important question i was prompted to think about while making a hot chocolate...


would you rather have water with milk, or milk with water??

[ok that was random but u never know we mite wana do something i duno i'm just making this up as i go along...] and there u go anon, a longer random post :P

können wir ein Ausflug nach Deutschland haben??

WELL! we might be having, next year, a seymour/pac GERMAN TRIP!!! yes, you heard it here first folks, a german trip!! i heard it from hugh on monday night but how exciting! how good would that be?! it'd be the same as the jap trip...but to germany instead of japan... but yeah, given stephens [lol speeney is that how you spell it?!] is currently in london, we can't ask her.... if we actually had the german trip that'd be so good did you know that there's no sace german @ pac? just IB? [which means that we'd be with all the smarto IB ppl...] oh and NEWSFLASH!!!the temp. german teacher wore a different shirt today!!! far out!! [as in, different from the one he's worn since day one of term 3...]

but yeah, in other news, i forget what i was going to write... i'm doing photog now, but beckie and i accidentally kinda ruined a film today coz it got stuck or something we dont really know but yeah lol ah well we were rewinding it then when ms dawson opened it she's like ah yes. its ruined now. [coz it hadnt rewound into the actual container thing, it wound the other way...what the?!] but oh well... she likes me coz she taught me for like 5 weeks when i was in yr 6 @ annesley haha... but yeah but anyway, i'm going to go now, i think if i go on for much longer i'll just be going on and on and on and on and on and on and on about the german trip which may or may not happen oooh i really hope it does. i think we shall bombard frau stephens on monday morning [lol third lesson...they give us maths first thing on a monday morning??? well apart from assembly, but that doesn't count] about it but yeah, hope you're all having good weeks, mine's not going too badly... TTFN!!
