Hollaback Girl (Cover) – Foals

Again, late blog. Its cos Dillan came home late & I went to see him during the time when I usually blog. Update: We’ve broken up now. Its a shit situation. But I got to punch him.

The past week has been really bloody hot. First weeks of school always are. Today was lovely and like, 21*C, so. But yeah, that first week killed me. Luckily we managed to find a way to sneak into the single air conditioned room in our school. Sweeeet. Getting back into the routine is a bit weird, especially with a new timetable, but I’m getting back into it. School isn’t quite killing me yet. School photos tomorrow, however, will.

Also, as you can see, saw Black Swan over the weekend. I wrote a horrible review last night, here, so I guess yeah. I don’t know about that film.

Yeah, that’s really it. Busy week ahead & yeah. I don’t know, I’m so horrible with writing down anything lately. I apologise.

Innocence – Nero

(Top to Bottom; Photo from my birthday that someone requested, old photo from school, Tron!)

This week has felt like its gone on for forever. Had English on Monday, finished school on Wednesday. Tuesday brought a farewell party for my lovely and amazing Geography Teacher who I’ll miss so much. We bought her these lovely book ends shaped like horses which she loved, and yeah, it was brilliant. Also got my art marks back, coming first in the year. Pretty stoked about that.

After school had finished, we got a new computer! Its Windows 7 and lovely and fast and has specifications which make Dillan so jealous. We’ve taken the opportunity to finally get back into playing Sims – I’ve forgotten how much I loved that game.

Saturday was good fun, hung out all day with Dillan & saw Tron (reviewed on time for once, here) which was so awesome. Later that night we met up with Stacey, Maddie, Jake, Tess and a bunch of other familiar faces (Grant, Fletcher, Ryan, etc) who had been out all day to celebrate Stacey’s birthday which is in a week or so. We went to Carols at the Domain (which I will obtain photos from once Stacey uploads them – I seriously need my own camera), but ended up leaving half-way through to go hang out/meet up with people. It was a pretty good night, nice to see Jake before he leaves for England for the holidays.

Today we’ve spent the day playing Sims, really. Just a week before Dillan leaves on holiday (for 6 whole goddamn weeks), which to be honest I’m really dreading but what can you do? Going to see Jess after Christmas so I guess I have something to look forward to.

Man’s Machine – Jamie T

The past week has been so boring. Monday & Tuesday; study for maths test. Wednesday; do maths test, actually, miraculously see Dillan. Thursday; get hair done (as seen above; its not actually black but a very dark chestnut, the colour is a bit more obvious over at Dailybooth). Friday; do Geography report. Saturday; see Dillan, troll book stores, basically. Sunday; prepare for English test tomorrow (last exam) & change layout. So basically, not much.

Although, school does finish this Wednesday for the Summer break. Then a week and a half before Christmas, a week and a half before Dillan leaves to go overseas for 6 weeks. So my Summer will suck without him. But y’know, whatever. I need to do site updates. I need to fix up the tags/categories of each blog post. Soon, my friends, soon.

Silvia 2 Ibiza (Myndset Mashup) – SHM vs. Miike Snow

Over this past week I’ve tried so hard not to stress but it seems impossible. Today has been entirely devoted to doing Visual Arts coursework and seriously, its such a bitch. I’m one of the lucky ones who managed to do some progressively, so I feel so so so sorry for those who left it all to this weekend.

On Thursday my geography class went on a school trip the the Blue Mountains. It was beyond fun; our tour guide Darren was ever so charming, our class works so well, we got to do a lot of really awesome things (ride the steepest vertical rail way in the world – which I will admit freaked me to hell) and eat some pretty nice food and it was just a really good day.

Other weekly highlights include seeing Due Date (there isn’t a world in which Robert Downey Jnr is unattractive), Loretta’s birthday on Monday, Jeremy’s (my brother) birthday on Thursday andddd… yeah really, that’s it.

Also, any Australians tried the new V Iced Coffee? I don’t know if I like it or not… seems not strong enough.

But anyway, this coming week will be hell. Study study study and my birthday… 17, the year of telling the truth (according to Maxxie (Skins)). Yeah dreading my birthday already. FUN ! haha

Stolen – Dashboard Confessional

The past week has been so crazy. ASOS things that I ordered a month ago [finally] arrived (they’re so lovely; black maxi skirt, sweatshirt dress, grey jersey maxi dress, grey t-shirt & waist belt), received my school report which was (mostly) really good, had a lot of drama but the week’s over, I guess. Saturday I saw Wild Target with Dillan (I really enjoyed it, mainly because Rupert really does stand out as an actor in this film, but I guess I’ll review it soon), then bought Harry Potter Film Wizardry as part of my birthday gift (next month) which is actually amazing. I’ve been doing heaps of course work today, mainly on Aboriginal Art which could be more interesting, but what can you do? From now on there isn’t a week where I don’t have an assessment task until the end of the school year (17th December… so far away!) which is rather scary but that’s what you get for the last year of high school.

Ah well, at least Deathly Hallows is out this week! It really feels sudden in comparison to the massive wait for Half Blood Prince but BOY am I excited. Re-reading the book, too. Good move on my part. Can’t wait!
