Finals

Finals are over!! They ended up not being as hard as expected. But photography was very annoying. We had to remember all the photography rules and all. Which was NOT COOL. I never really remeber the rules except the rule of thirds. But I think I did an okay job. I think I only got an 88 on my math final. :-( I thought I did good on that one. But I got a 100 in Core Communications. Enough with grades.

I'm so excited for People to People!

LAMINGTONS!! They're finished. And delicious. Really really delicious. I made a video and took pictures, so I'll make a special post about it soon.

As soon as it gets nicer out, I'll start taking pictures. There isn't anything cool to take pictures of right now.

Today I have off since I don't have to make up finals... so I'm bored. And tomorrow I have to go to my grandmom's house for her birthday. My aunt and sister will be there, but none of my cousins will so I will be bored all weekend. I have no life.

In New Zealand, I'm staying with a local family. We could be staying on a farm, in the suburbs, in the city, wherever. I really wanted to stay in the city, but now I kind of want to stay on a sheep farm. One of my friend's family used to live on their grandparent's sheep farm. I really liked it even though I had to watch where I steped :-). Also I want to be able to take pictures for my friend's grandparents. That should be cool!

I'm going to go eat stuff.

Back to the Usual

As you can tell, the blog is back to normal. I felt like I was cheating on KaPow by changing the name and url. But I'm keeping the background. It's pretty! Plus it was like I was copying off Kat when I changed it. So back to normal.

I can't wait for lamingtons! I have all the ingredients. I'll post pictures when I'm done.

Guess who's doing the plane this year? My bio teacher's son! I think he will do an awesome job, he was actually listening to my speech about "Blah blah blah, glue, blah blah rubber bands, blah blah blah FAILURE IS EMINENT!" while his partner was just looking around. But they haven't started yet. And Holly and I were working on it all through winter break. I don't know what they're going to do.

I went back and read some Oswald Says...(.) It was actually quite awesome, and I was shocked that there was only 6 posts, when this is the 21st post. And Oswald Says... only lasted two months.

OH! FROG DISSECTION! It was awesome. It wasn't that bad, but there was so much preservative it was gushing. I was having trouble with the breastbone, and so I accidentally flicked frog guts in these guys' hair. Whoops. But it was cool. I'll post a picture of Mr.Froggy eventually.

Did I mention finals yet? I think I did. AHH!

I tried to get a cool hit counter like Edda's, but alas, you need to create an account.

Oh I found my favorite face wash in my hall closet. It smells like grapefruit. Mmm. Too much information? Yeah...

Today I had a math test, and it was printed on graph paper. I felt the need to write one letter/number per square. And oh yes I did. I'm expecting a comment when I get it back. I really need to start that study guide that I should be almost finished by now... o_o

That's it for now?? I'll probably remember something and post again in like ten minutes. Well then so long!

Lamingtons... Mmm!

Quick post... So I watch this YouTube channel called communitychannel, and it's this Australian girl randomly ranting. She keeps ranting about making lamingtons, and never has. I have to make Aussie food eventually for P2P, and lamingtons look DELICIOUS! They're these little sponge cakes with chocolate icing and coconut... Mmmm...

I have to go bake,

New Name?

I'm considering a new name for this blog. The posting will be the same, the old poss will stay, the layout will be the same, but the url will change. By the time you read this, the name might be different.
Finals. I knew they were coming. I am going to be ready for the Bio final, but I haven't started reviewing for math. We even have gym finals! And today I found out I actually have to study for my Photography final.
I dissected a frog today! It really wasn't that gross, except when the guys I gave the frog to at the end decided to pull off the head. But it was okay. I didn't even care about cutting it, but I couldn't bear to break the arms. My partner was a vegetarian, and she helped and didn't even mind. It was so cool. I popped out an eye right as she said we didn't have to anymore.
I think I have decided what the name will be, and the background might change. But I assure you, the posts will stay!

.... Third Post in One Day

Okay, just thought I'd say...
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanuka, Happy Ramadan, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy New Year. I hope that forgives my past indiscretions.
And... AUSTRALIA DAY IS JANUARY 26! So let's find out who becomes the Australian of the Year!
Oh, you should comment.
BAI!

The Adventures of Headbang Kid: Part One

I shall introduce you to headbang kid. There is this odd kid on my bus who does weird stuff. So here's what happened.
Headbang Kid was on the bus. He looked like he was brushing his teeth. I thought, "WHAT?" but I didn't want to look because the bus is very quiet, and people know when you stare at people. So I glanced over... he's trying to eat a lollipop really fast on the short bus ride. This wasn't the only weird thing.
A few days later, I am sitting on the bus, jamming to my iPod, and I see Headbang Kid looking around shady-ily. So I decide to see what he is going to do. After deciding that no one was watching him, he starts headbanging and fake scream-o-ing. WHAT? Okay this kid is weird.
Also, I was sitting on the bus, and Headbang Kid was doing something again. He pulled out a full breakfast sandwich and started going to town.
I'm still unsure who this kid is, but he hasn't done anything but eat a few lollipops since...
