Song: Little Shadow – Yeah Yeah Yeah’s

There is never enough time in the world for anything. There is so much shit I need to do, assignments, homework, this place needs a new layout, maintaining fansites… live. It occurred to me this week that I have not been out socially all year. This could be a combination of my anti-social tendencies, or just because my friends are pricks. Either way, it is how it is. This should change tomorrow – Mardi Gras – but I’m not sure if anxiety will take over yet. I’m still freaked out about going out. I’ll be going out with people I usually don’t, so that’s all strange for me.

Anyway. Life. Recent things. Stuff. Thursday was a welfare day, basically we had no classes and just did workshops about procrastination, organisation & stuff to prepare for with our final years of highschool. I think it was meant to help us be less stressed, but it only stressed me out even more. Meh, it was a day off school work so I’m not complaining.

Ergh, Skins was so intense today, its got me all worked up now. Bloody hell, I never cared for Effy or Freddie, but that was a pretty good episode, mainly for the Cook/everything. His little bromance with Freddie is cute, though I do prefer his bromance with JJ. IDGAF I like bromances.

Also, no Wanted 2? I adored Wanted, and despite not holding out much hope for a next film, I still wanted it to exist. Isn’t McAvoy big enough to live without Jolie after all? I mean, she did die in the film…

ALSO, Alice in Wonderland comes out next week, and this news is exciting to my ears. Just need to find Christine a job so that she can have money and see it with me.

Blogging today is so hard, so I’m sorry that this is full of shit. Its been a PROPER boring week, and nothing cool or interesting or exciting has happened at all. I seriously can’t think of a single thing to talk about at all.

This guy from my primary school keeps trying to make something happen. I don’t know what that something would be, but every time I’m on facebook he’ll message me and tell me random things about his day and its rather irritating, now. He wants to “hang out”. He keeps making really dirty jokes and its just like… well, no, its not happening. I don’t know. This is my single interaction with the male kind, like, ever, so its pathetic. I suppose he’s caught on on that, because its not like he’s a looker. Or a charmer. Yeah, lets all pick on the pathetic girl…

Speaking of which, I won’t be attending that primary school reunion I mentioned a bit a go. Conflicts with Mardi Gras. Not sure I even want to see any of them, anyway.

Meh, I’ll end this now. I’ve been trying to blog for like, an hour or something. This is going no where anyway.

Song: All In My Head – Good Shoes

Tra la la la la its Friday time! Which means I’ve watched Skins (Katies ep – which was amazing. Not as good as Cooks, though) and done my things & ready to blog about!

Well, this week, eh? The weekend & Monday was spent getting rid of the swelling on my face. Mum actually took me to the hospital, she was so worried about it. 3 hours in the waiting room & 5 with a doctor. Lovely how our health system works. But yeah, other than that I was fine. The swelling was gone by Monday, and most of the sun-damaged skin has peeled off/faded, which is important. Still, I’ve had to wear my fringe again (I cannot explain in human words how much I hate wearing it out. Its so damn annoying.) & heaps of sunscreen to prevent any more damage. I’m really not built to live in Australia, not with this climate & my lack of heat tolerance.

Other than that, my week has been extremely boring. Just school & homework & faffing about online – sites like Texts from Last Night & Not Always Right don’t really keep me busy, but when its no use starting up anything in PS, they serve as good time fillers. Actually, I don’t always like those kinds of sites, like FML & MLIA. ESPECIALLY not MLIA – it was alright when I first found it & that, but then it got popular. The popularity isn’t my problem, its the fact that all the stories are now all the same, and, more often than not, fake.

Ergh, I shouldn’t rant so much here, but really its a lot of what I think of. I’m really annoyed at my group at the moment; though I do say that a lot. What this time, then? Well, for the past week they’ve been organising to go to this U18′s club tonight, but naturally haven’t told us about it. I mean, I winged a little to Harriet when she accidental called me (thinking I was another Cassie), but she’s all “oh no, you’re invited, you’re part of this group, we want you there!” Yeah, likely, seeing as we were asked if we wanted to go, and we were told their plans for organising it. They probably expected us (Christine, Melanie & I) to say we didn’t want to go, but just presuming? Its rude. They’re ignorant.

Lets talk about something different. Oh yeah, remember when I mentioned a few blogs ago about a class studying Twilight? We’re going to have to, too. In English, we’re studying gothic literature, and we’ll be juxtaposing two texts. One of which is Henry James’ The Turn of the Screw, and, well, the second is the Twilight film. I’m kind of annoyed that Twilight is coming into our education system (where as Harry Potter is yet to be seen), but it could be worse. Our teacher hates the Twilight film/book/franchise, so its not like it’ll be glorified, and the film does have Jackson Rathbone in it (who I’ve fancied ever since his appearance in Criminal Minds), but still. The world is ending, I’m telling you.

Well, another issue of Computer Arts has arrived, so I’m going to return comments and read that. Fun!

Song: Xtatic Truth – Crystal Fighters

I’m meant to be at Jess’ birthday dinner right now. But I’m not. I’ll get to that.

Anyway, on Monday I got a new monitor. Its 24″. Its MASSIVE. This is a snap-shot Tumblr, as seen by me on this screen. The to-scale image was too big to be uploaded on TINYPIC. That’s saying something. I’m getting used to it, though. The contrast settings & such are a little different, so if my layouts & such change, you’ll know why.

What else? Wednesday was my school’s sports carnival. For those who don’t know, its basically a day where our school packs up its gear and heads off to the pool, hosting a range of aquatic races, best dressed (in house colours/themed outfits) competitions and cheer competitions. This year wasn’t actually that bad – we made our own fun. Christine (who’s aqua-phobic) & I didn’t swim (never have, never will), but we did go in best dressed – despite not being dressed up. We photo bombed the photos. It was amazing. We also helped my house (Christine isn’t even IN mine, but she stuck with us lmao) with the cheers – by raving up at the front while they did their cheers. Naturally we came last in the cheers, pmsl. I don’t care, my dancing is amazing. Its all I did. All day. Killer moves. Awesome. Told Mr C. it was all I was good at. Probably true.

What else? Yeah, I got pretty badly sunburnt at the pool. Well, no, not badly actually. Just average. But its been bad afterwards. See, I burnt my face (forehead, nose & cheeks a little) but it was all ok and recovering and stuff. Nothing big, nothing bad. No peeling. Nothing. But still, seeing as today was SO hot (about 38°C/100°F), it got all inflamed and irritated again. Basically, I was sitting on the new area at school like always (its kind of under this tree, but seeing as the tree is pretty high up, the shade is really patchy. But people in “my group” can be dominating bitches and make us sit there because its “nicer”) and then all of a sudden Belle’s like, ‘Holy Lord, your forehead is swollen!’ Scary, right? Being so close to the brain and all. So I went home & to the doctors and she basically said that it was inflamed sunburn and because of the heat and everything, it just all swelled up. Nothing big. Which is good. Still, mental. So yes, that is why I’m not with Jess as I’m meant to. But as I’ve probably mentioned, “my group” is complicated and I’m hoping us un-cool rejects (or as we’re made to feel, anyway) revolt soon. Or I may just explode.

Also, I look like an Na’vi with this swelling. Its right in between my eyes, making me look like Jake Sully’s avatar. I keep doing the ‘I see you’ thing to Mum. I have too much dorky fun sometimes.

Nothing new has been up. How lame. It feels like I’ve had a really busy week, but when I think about it, I haven’t. I’ve got fanlistings to make. New layouts to do. Art. I really want to be an artist this year. I want to create. I want to be amazing. I want a talent. Something really struck me this week (its really lame so I won’t say what) and I’m like, ‘what am I doing with all this?!’ Heaps of self-confidence things have also been up all week, but I think thats just PMS and I usually just keep it to myself.

GAH blog is getting too personal. Running away.

(Also, last nights Skins was incredible. I love Cook. The end)
