Today is technically the last day of my holidays. Well, our school has tomorrow off for staff development or something, so we still have a day. But still.

The second week has been a lot better than the first. Well, some bits were. Of course some nights did get ridiculously depressing, sitting up watching girly films like Penelope or (believe it or not) Spice World, but I also did a whole bunch of other things, like website stuff or whatever. Actually come to think of it I can’t remember much, every day seemed to blur into one. Monday I don’t remember a thing of, like, period. Could have never even happened, according to my memory. Tuesday I went over to Dillan’s and we finished up Misfits and watched Wanted – I seriously don’t care, I love that film. Wednesday could have also not existed, I think I did school work that day (finished up my work on Auschwitz for History. Awwwessommee). Thursday went over to Dillan’s again, watched the IT Crowd (Season 1, always fun) & South Park, and then Friday was another day that’s blurred in my memory. Well, kind of, Mum went out to some dinner so I chilled with my brother eating pizza and napping… such a hip Friday night, huh?!

Saturday… do I even need to explain? We all know what I did. Dillan and I went into the city, saw a film & then faffed about in various KFC’s and candy stores. We saw Knight and Day – not usually my kind of film, but it was Dillan’s pick so. I wasn’t expecting anything of the film, other than a few laughs and some guns, so I was actually a bit surprised by the film. Spoilers – just sayin’. But yeah, it was actually a surprisingly manipulative film, the audience were lead to believe Roy, then the cops, then Roy, then the cops, and so on. This kept the audience engaged, and for a film which managed to engage the audience through manipulation and not something lame like sexual tension, it surprised me. All these “romaction” films are all about the same thing, and the fact that the battery plot was strong enough to distract the audience (or me, at least, and I’m the biggest romantic cynic alive) from the romantic chemistry or cheap humour means that the film wasn’t personally too big of a waste of time.

Oh look at me, getting all film-review on your arse. You enjoyed it, you dirty bastard.

Yeah, the rest of the day was our normal shenanigans. Managed to buy more chocolate from this store in the city, it sells international candy, meaning it sells UK and American candy (amongst others). So I naturally got some UK Cadbury (after Jess informed me that it was different to ours) which was divine – seriously. I think I should invest in more chocolate from there and have myself a secret stash! haha

Anyway, today is Sunday and for the first time in forever, I did something. Normally Sundays I do nothing (mainly cos Dillan works) but today I hung out with Chris & Smell (Melanie). We only went to the mall up the road, but I love it there so whatever. We sat outside the front of it under the trees where all the old men go, and I can understand why they all sit there, its actually really nice. We also did some other interesting things… I bought this AWESOME mug I’ll have to show you for only $2, and an Iron Man chest plate which I keep playing with. We also played ping pong in the sports section (they had the tables set out, we kind of had to) and bought a bunch of Mountain Dew, Dorritoes and salsa and nommed in a park. Seriously, today was so nice weather wise – I don’t care if I sound like a grandma, but it was nice and cool, sun came out to play so it was lovely in the shade, slight breeze, a really nice day to be outside. Although I do have a mosquito bite now which I didn’t even think was possible in winter, but whatever.

I don’t think I’m prepared for school to start again. I don’t like the real world. And its this whole dreading of school again which makes me hate holidays. But we’ll live through it, I guess.
