Once again I've been doing nothing. Well I did go to uni and did a lot of reading on the train. But as soon as I got home I turned on the tv and the computer and the rest is history. I did find this cool site. It's at www.kea.com.au . You would know them from their personalised note pads which say things like "A note from (your name)." Anyways, they have all these cool pictures you can colour in (hence the very very cute giraffe). I'll let you guys browse the site. Enjoy! Car-O-Line

Can you handle the coolness of this entry?

Hey there all!
I'm having a study break at the moment because I don't like study and I'm bored.
Well lots of exciting stuff has been happening. I finished my 3 weeks of prac teaching last friday! I'm gonna miss all those girls. They are all so cute and funny. There was this one girl called Caroline who I will never forget, not just because her name is the same as mine but she was so sweet! I also got my P's on friday! I'm very happy. I've already driven to places by myself. I'm glad I have my P's now because that means I will probably be able to stay at parties longer because I won't need my parents to pick me up.
I've decided to write a cool bible verse in each of my blogs now... just because I've found all these really cool verses. Here is the first one, it's also my favourite bible verse:

Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands.
-Deuteronomy 7:9 (NIV).

Isn't that such a cool verse. Even though it was written so long ago, we can see how it is true today. Well that's all from me!

School Prac

I'm officially over half way through my Abbotsleigh jnr. prac! Today was a fun day. We did lots of recorder work with the little people, then I took the handbells group (I arranged a piece for them) and then I taught year 6. I'm teaching the prettiest song. It's called Wild Mountain Thyme. It's funny teaching it to primary people though because when I tell them it's a love song they go "eww! gross!"
Another eventful thing we did was teach the primary how to sing "Twist and Shout." Our lecturer had been going on and on about how they would never teach rock n roll music at Abbotsleigh so we decided to prove him wrong. The students found huge enjoyment in singing it. We had an electric guitar, drums and piano accompanying. The deputy principal came in at the end and said "Isn't it nice to have these music prac students to do something we wouldn't normally do." LOL.
Anyways, I have lots to do!
Love Caroline

one weird convo!

bored as a hippo

Don't you just reckon hippo's are always bored... I mean they just sit in water or walk in water and get their backs scratched by annoying birds. And when hippos are really bored... they just open their mouth and crush a living specimen in it. How sad for them.
I just came back from youth group. It's going really well now. I think it's because I'm feeling more confident and also more importantly... I'm learning from the studies myself. Yeah it's good. We had a nice long discussion about who was at the top of the food chain. We argued whether it was a lion or a human... but I reckon it is the hippo... because their mouth is so big... they can eat anything they want. They eat meat and veggies.
But now I'm home... and I just finished reading about 5 quizes from people. I wonder if they were bored when they wrote it. I'm too bored to do the quiz now though. OOOO I'll tell you a good song to listen to you when you are bored: "Something Pretty" by Patrick Park. The lyrics are so funny:
Here I am, where I’ve been
I’ve walked a hundred miles in tobacco skin,
And my clothes are worn & gritty.
And I know ugliness,
Now show me something pretty.

I was a dumb punk kid with nothing to lose
And too much weight for walking shoes.
I could have died from being boring.
As for loneliness,
She greets me every morning.

At the most I’m a glare,
I’m the hopeless son who’s hardly there.
I’m the open sign that’s always busted.
I’m the friend you need, but can’t be trusted.

Here I am, where I’ve been
I’ve walked a hundred miles in tobacco skin,
And my clothes are worn & gritty.
And I know ugliness,
Now show me something pretty.

I've bolded the funny bits. I guess it's not a very funny song when you just read the lyrics, but this funny country singer sings it. BUY THE OC SOUNDTRACK MIX 2 for really cool music.
Ahh... I'm not feeling so bored now cuz I'm listening to music. Well thats all for now.

p.s: CRAP! I have a crap essay and it's like for two crap subjects cuz I have to write about crap memory structures and also write crappy references. Plagiarism is crap! Why don't people just let everyone copy each other. Crap! Thats how we learn how to speak in the first place. We learn how to speak from copying our parents. Referencing is crap! And the fact that you can fail for forgetting to reference some things is crap. Crap is such a useful word! Crap crap crap!

Over Stress

I had my music literature test yesterday. Thank God thats over! So now I'm not as stressed, which is kinda bad, but also good because I'm actually practicing my violin and doing work for other subjects. Quick plug:
SPONSER ME! For the Malcolm Sargent Music-a-thon. Help me raise lots of money for kids with cancer. I'm hoping to do about 25 hrs so you can either pay per hour or just one big sum. Msg me!
Don't you reckon that old school games (SNES especially) were so classic! Like who can forget Street fighter 2? That was a cool game. I'm a girl and even I can play it. If any of you have a sudden urge to play it... I have it at my house. OOOoooOOO!!! I'm excited now.
I've got some more music recommendations for you today: Listen to Chopin Ballade No. 1 in G minor. This one is so pretty. And also... if you are into rich violin tones, listen to Bach Partita for unaccompanied violin in D minor.
Hmmm what else can I say?
Good afternoon, good evening and goodnight!

Hello? Is anyone out there?

Everyone has been busy busy lately. Well me at least... stupid going to uni every day and working the other days. What happened to the good ol' days when we could go to Hornsby after frisbee? I'm writing here because Jen said that I hadn't written in ages... even though my last post was only 1 month ago (1 month ago? it was that long ago?). Anyways... quick plug:
UNSW Symphony Orchestra Concert, Tues Apr 26
Sir John Clancy Auditorium UNSW
7.30 pm, Conc: $5, Adu: $10
COME AND HEAR WORKS BY SIBELIUS (not the computer program) AND HUMMEL (this one is cool!)
Talking about good music... you should all listen to Brahms Clarinet Quintet in Bm Op. 115. It's very perdy!
So what else is there to talk about? Well I've been barely surviving on a total lack of sleep... so my brain is not functioning well. (6 hrs of music... classical music overload).

Happy Happy Joy Joy

After a sad entry... I write a happy entry! I went to the easter show yesterday with Bec and Jen. It was a very fun day. Aren't old school buddies the best? As you can see... Jen got her face painted and Bec got a tiara thing. I didn't get anything special except my super duper rad push pop showbag. Also... each one of us got a bucket of fairy floss! Thats a lot of fairy floss. I had a major sugar headache afterwards. But it tasted good... so what's to complain about?
Tonight I did my first proper leading at switch. This just meant I had to read the questions and explain a couple of things. It was actually a really good study so that helped. It was on Psalm 73. If you are feeling down... you should read it! The girls were really good today as well. We also learned the psalm-ba (samba) kekeke. Tomorrow I have my ISCF conference leader meeting. Sounds like fun! I'm so glad that I'm gonna be back there. I'm also looking forward to seeing old friends (who thought I was in year 8 last year... grr!). Well... who would blame them?
