winter is cool

yeah everything is cool now... well at least I'm cool... I just hope the other people are cool.

I just realised that I look heaps like an elf in my profile picture. I think that's cool! I could be like Arwen from the Lord of the Rings!

so what else has been up in my life...
-I actually wrote more words than I need to for my concert review... I'm usually under the limit for all types of written tasks.
-my orchestra concert sucked. Went to another concert today. Was much MUCH better! :)
-I have a stack of work which is due next week... I should really start it now... but that hasn't really happened.
-Saturday is MA07 training day. Exciting! I get to see all my old brothers and sisters!
-my money has left me.
-I can listen to normal music now! But normal music sucks!
-my bed is messy, shock! horror!

icing on the cake

Can you believe it? I don't think my week could have gotten any better.
I got food poisoning. Most likely from the sushi that I had on wednesday night. So I been stuck in bed and feeling a bit gross... This morning I fully fainted and collapsed and have a few bruises. All I can take down is diluted juice (doctor's orders) and plain toast.
Home is boring. Someone please entertain me!

The week so far...

::22/4::
Jen had her practice recital for her Amus exam. She played 4 contrasting works. She is still so good! The last time I heard her play was in year 12. I also got to catch up with Bec and Alistair. They are a funny bunch.

::23/4::
Church! Then went to play badminton with Yvonne, Ash, Aidz, Euge, Vic and Ted. I'm so out of practice. We were playing doubles... it was ok... but with doubles... there is the chance that you wont get to do much... and then you slack off... and then when you can do something... you're slacked off and you miss. Bring on the singles!
I then went home and watched Baz Lurhman's Romeo and Juliet which Euge lent to me. It is such a good movie! I love how Baz had so much attention to detail. Like the story is still exactly the same but the way he made it modern... so clever.
I also did some reading for my consultation which would be on 24/4. I was so stressed about it.
I went to night church too. Ellie came which was cool. There was also dinner so we all got to catch up and chat which was fun. Ant is engaged! He was like skipping everywhere... so cute!

::24/4::
Consultation day! ARGH!!! I basically did all my assignment in the one hour before I had to go to uni. So I was really stressed that my lecturer would fully slam me. But when I got there... she was just saying "Yeah this all looks good... I can see you put lots of effort into it" (lol! only one hour!). Then she just told me to write more on one of my points in the essay plan and cut out another point. Then she said "So have you actually been able to read the readings yet?" WHAT! I didn't actually have to read them?!?!?! All that stress for nothing!

::25/4::
Had a picnic with my junior girls (all 3 of them who decided to come) at 9am. I learned a lot about them. It scares me how much they know about certain topics. I should talk to them... but I dunno how I can bring it up. We played cheat and uno and twister... and ran around the garden a bit. It was a fun time.
Then went off to Jimmy's apartment to have an Anzac day BBQ. I had already eaten lots of chips on the picnic with my girls... but I still ate heaps of chips at Jimmy's. I felt really sick afterwards. The BBQ was tasty too. Then we all went off to the park to play soccer, touch footy, frisbee and boules.
We then went back to the apartment... some people left... and in the end it was only me, Cler, Euge, Phil and Jimmy left. So we went to some place near eastwood to have indian. It was tasty. Cler's tongue was like burning. Then we dropped Cler home and watched some comedian at her place. Then I got home at 11.15pm. Long day out!

::26/4::
Yeah... I had a cadenza and short paper due today... And I hadn't really done much at all on it. So I had to do it all in the 3hrs I had before travelling to uni. I got the cadenza written alright and the short paper just flowed after that. I think the paper was ok... dunno about the cadenza... it follows the rules... but could have been better. I'm not totally fussed though.
Had bible study. The topic was pretty hard. It was on James ch4. Lots of full on stuff in it. For prayer time... the girls and guys split up. And Grace was like "What is going on?!?!" So we filled her in. Yee Mun had a good laugh. So we talked a lot and they guys were like... "Have you finished praying yet?!?" So then we prayed. We must have all been worn out because everyone left. I stayed back to help Phil with the washing. He knows everything too... it seems that bad news travels fast.

and today.... well I dunno...

friday already!

Last night I went to an info night for Maitland Alive mission. It was cool. I got to see Susie and Ivan again which was cool. I wasn't sure which section I wanted to join cuz they all sound really good... at first I thought I would do minis (k-2), but then realised that I have never done a yr3-5 age group before... so I considered KHAOS (yr3-5). There is another group which name is TBA (yr6-9) which I don't wanna do because I'm already doing that stuff at the moment. The other group ROCK (yr10-12) is sounding very tempting as well. I think I will end up doing ROCK. Cuz I wanna get into those deep discussions... it's encouraging seeing people learn, but I also learn which is cool.
Cler stayed over again. I had a long chat with her and other people... was quite a stressful evening. Was feeling sick in the stomach again.

This morning I was feeling quite good. I surprisingly slept in till 11 and felt like singing... so I sang "Feeling Good" to Cler and she was a bit surprised. I also felt like eating... so I did that. I also played Cler my E chromatic scale on the clarinet. It was quite relieving knowing that everyone knew everything. Even though it's awkward... I quite like it that everyone is clear on the truth now.
I also listened to lots of music. I love music!
I did try to do one of my music assignments... it sucks... like I'm stressed about it because my lecturer is so good and knows like absolutely everything and I know so little. So it's quite intimidating. (BTW the assignment is where I have to meet up with my lecturer one on one and tell her what I'm learning about this specific piece of music... geez I'm so screwed!) It's my fault though that I don't know anything because I went to the library a bit too late and all the books were gone.

I made chicken rice... it was tasty. It's good to have your appetite back.

:( back to uni on monday... I only have a weekend to catch up on stuff I should have done earlier. Oh and I need to email Susie... hmmm will do that now! :P

Easter Show Pics






Holy is the Lord - Andrew Peterson

Recently songs have been really working for me. This is like one of my favourite songs at the moment. The lyrics are so cool.

Wake up little Isaac
And rub your tired eyes
Go and kiss your mama
We’ll be gone a little while
Come and walk beside me
Come and hold your papa’s hand
I go to make an altar
And to offer up my lamb

I waited on the Lord
And in a waking dream He came
Riding on a wind across the sand
He spoke my name
“Here I am”, I whispered
And I waited in the dark
The answer was a sword
That came down hard upon my heart

Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord
And the Lord I will obey
Lord, help me I don’t know the way

So take me to the mountain
I will follow where You lead
There I’ll lay the body
Of the boy You gave to me
And even though You take him
Still I ever will obey
But Maker of this mountain, please
Make another way

Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord
And the Lord I will obey
Lord, help me I don’t know the way

17th April:
Went to easter show with Eugene, Cler and Forgie. Cler was there all day while me, Euge and Forgie just came after 5 because it's cheaper. Oh man it was like the best fun! We looked at the animals first. Me and Cler went into the petting area while Euge and Forgie took "daddy" photos. Euge took lots of photos... should be able to put them up soon! EXCITING! Then we looked at the food stalls and art stuff and showbags. We didn't buy any showbags... but the ARMY showbag was quite tempting for a certain someone. Then we went on the rides. OMGosh this was the best fun. We started on the soft ride - the ferris wheel. We were quite lucky cuz the fireworks were going as we were up in the sky. That was fun. Then we went on the "Taipan." I've been on this many a time. They have a camera on it this time though. The photo was so funny! Cler took a photo of the photo. Then we went on the "crazy coaster." We went on it twice... it was so funny... we posed for the camera... for the first photo... i just acted serious... hahaha looked so funny. And Euge did this crazy scary face. And Cler had this massive cheezy smile... and Forgie looked happy... it was so funny! We didn't get to take a picture of the picture though because the people were standing right next to it. But the image will forever be stuck in my head. Gosh i can't stop laughing. Good times.
Cler slept over and we talked till about 1am.

18th April:
Today was a really crap day. I was just feeling really pissed and bad. For starters.. had to wake up... then me and Cler are like walking fast to the train... and only just miss it! So waited 30 mins and talked a bit more... listened to backstreet boys. Uni sucked. It was such a waste of a day. There were like only 2 books that were helpful... and I only got like 2 sentences from them. I did find stuff on the net... but could have done that at home. Then I was hungry so I bought a foccacia for $6.50 which was way too much... and I didn't even finish it. Did a bit more research and decided to come home.
I saw Mark M on the train home... had a lil chat. Then at home... got on net and had long chat with Mark M, Cler and Euge. It was fully intense. 'Love Oblongs' suck.

19th April:
It's very early in the morning right now. I should sleep.
