NYE & School

I might not drop 2 Unit Mathematics after all. But I'm so goddamn adamant! I love math. I really do. But if it's stopping me from achieving a 98.55 ATAR then I want nothing to do with it.

I'm asking myself if I really want to be a journalist. I'm taking the UMAT in July- and that's for freaking Medicine! I don't know.

It's the New Year in less than 24 hours. Let's see what it brings.

I'm just going to drive around aimlessly now.


If I get above 85% for the first Math exam of the HSC then I'll consider keeping it.

It's my birthday today and I'm currently experiencing a whole new level of boredom- on account of my mum and two sisters leaving for the Philippines today. They'll be back in 4 weeks, so I'm stuck here with my dad and older brother.I'm always getting left behind and it kind of sucks, but I guess I chose this. Silly me.

We ate lunch after wards and then I came home and collapsed on my bed. I do this at least once every day. It's New Years Eve tomorrow... and I can't fathom what we'll do.

I learned how to use the washing machine so I guess I'll be doing the laundry. Hooray for that.

My brother is inviting me to dinner with his friends and to see Avatar at iMax. I think I'll have to accept this offer on account of my being bored.

Bee days and fairies

Today is such a halycon day. I can't account for the speed to which today is passing. I woke up at 12pm- I'll explain this:

It was my party yesterday! Everyone I invited came except for my cousin. We ate and played Band Hero for aeons-this was punctuated by kodak moments,cake cutting and gift opening! Charisse got me the Arctic Monkeys Live at the Apollo! I was so happy when I opened it :) And I still am! She also got me an indie book mark & a Little Miss Birthday book! Cwizzy and Christina got me a Mooks tee, Alicia a hand made puppy sized elephant! Kevin gave me moolah, Gyndee got me a monkey and a toy flower :) and Marianne (my brother's girlfriend) got me Tommy Hilfiger's True Star Gold (It smells nice) and a Miffy stuff toy! :O. It was lots of fun! & when everyone was gone my big sisters friends took us to McDonalds (it was like 2am) and we ate aahahaha. I was full but I still managed to eat a cheeseburger and fries.

So I slept at 3am- thus explaining why I awoke so late during the day.

I watched a bit of the Arctic Monkeys DVD then I read the Death of the Author and collapsed on my bed.
My mum and sisters are leaving tomorrow- which happens to be my actual bee day.
It will be sad and I don't know :( 28days is a long time.

Sigh.

edit: Rosanna got me a $30 iTunes card and I have no eye deer what to buy with it!

You know what? I really cannot wait to grow up and travel. I hate that my parents don't care for it,and that we never go anywhere besides the Philippines. I really want to go the Wizarding World of Harry Potter next year. You think they'd say yes considering I've just finished the HSC and school. Why would I want to spend two months in the Philippines by myself? It doesn't make sense.

Nothing feels fair anymore. I don't care if I'm being crabby but it's so freaking boring. I don't know what will make me happy anymore

Highlight of my day

Watching my dad and big brother chase Sirius out in the front yard.

So that was Christmas

My Macbook is on 8% battery so this will be relatively short.
I have to admit that Christmas was completely devoid of meaning. We didn't attend mass this year or say a prayer before we ate dinner. I wish we had though, like before-things seemed to matter more when I was a kid.
But I love Christmas eve. I usually open one present early because I hate to wait. My favourite present this year would have to be the gift my sister gave me- it was Homer's the Odyssey! I thought it was extremely thoughtful.

It's my birthday in four days. My mother is getting me a Pandora charm bracelet. My brother got his girlfriend a charm necklace for Christmas and I was browsing through the catalogue and I mentioned how I really wanted one. My big sister also said she'd get me a charm before I did my HSC and one after I graduate! I think it would have to be the best birthday present I have not yet received.

I really want to go General Pants! I need new clothes!
