So today I felt positively SPARKLING!

Start Date: Monday March 23nd, 2009 
End Date: Sunday March 30th, 2009
Todays Thing: Get all work due in on time/Ask for help when needed/be a good friend
Info: So I have a habit of getting things in late... I finished my homework this morning before school and only one thing was due so I felt I kind of cheated. I'm struggling in math at the moment because I've been away and the teacher can't control the class and she doesn't make sense. So I swallowed my pride and asked Caitlin to help me, and it was good, she really did help a lot. There are still some things I don't understand so she said she would help me tomorrow too. And today, I found out that we have a CLOSED book math test tomorrow. how awesome right? I'm so going to fail.  Today at lunch time Jess (one of my friends) was kind of exiled from the group because she said a mean thing to Jasmine and Jacqui doesn't like her much. She did apologise and she did say she wasn't thinking, and I know its hard to forgive but she's a friend of mine and I don't have a problem with her because she doesn't tend to think before she speaks. So at lunch time she was standing all alone and my heart went out to her, it really did because I know what it's like to be that girl. So I told her to come stand with us, and she didn't get a very walm reception but I tried to include her and asked her to sleep over sometime and invited her to the library with me and Caitlin. It looked like Jasmine patched things up with her while me and Cait were doing math so it's all good? I felt kinda warm and fuzzy afterward.

Tom's Thing: Smile more. I don't do it a lot so I should make an effort to. Maybe smiling all day will rub off on me.

Todays Thing: Make my feelings known
Info: So I usually just let people forget when they forget about me but when it's a really good friend who's doing it I should tell them how I feel... and so I did today. Cait and I did a lap of the oval just talking and stuff and I think we're okay now. I wasn't gonna do the 7 Day Challenge but that inspired me to

So today I overslept my alarm (like usual) but my dad woke me up at 8am so it was alright. I ate breakfast and did my hair and thought how impossible Sweden would be and then we left. We waited in the office for Mr. O'Neil, our assistant principal. A few teachers passed us, I didn't know any of them except for, of course, McSatan. I said hello to her in this really sweet, evil voice and she gave me the infamous death glare of hers. Mr. O'Neil came shortly after that and sorted me into the grade, except it is 9D now and not 9H, still foundation but no McSatan. He put me into Painting and Drawing first class but he made a mistake and told me to go to 3D Shapes. As I walked into the room it kinda went silent and then someone went "she's baaaack". Miss N, who I might add is a total BITCH, didn't look too pleased to learn that I was in her class because everyone was weeks into their project and I had nothing. So I ended up drawing for the first two periods.

We had an assembly so it meant our periods were 10 minutes shorter or so. Year 9 takes place in the gym and I met our co-ordinator, Mr. Gorman who is quite nice. He read out all the boring announcements and then told us someone was here to speak to us and this lady stepped forward and intoduced herself. I don't remember her name but she was talking about exchange students and stuff. I was so tempted to tune out because I thought my dad would never ever let me go because it costs a lot but something kept me listening. She read out the list of countries we could choose from; America (aka, United States), Ireland, Germany, Italy, France, French Canada, Denmark, Finland, Holland, Japan, Norway, South Africa and wait for it - SWEDEN! That made me listen and she told us all about how when she was 15 she went on a trip to Sweden, and she stayed with a host family just outside of Stockholm, and on her first week she came face to face with a moose and people wanted to know if we had kangaroos going down our streets. She said we didn't have to know the language to go there and yes, it would be hard but people were friendly and translated for her. By then me and my friends were all OMGYES!

Recess was fun! Fun! I didn't realise how much I missed Caitiepants and Jacquetta and Jasmine Tea till I saw them again!

I went back to Mr O'Neil because I didn't have a locker yet and got my stuff and he told me that I had English and Science next. I have Mrs Manarcus for English and she was quite nice! I sat with some girls I vaguely knew and she got my name wrong and called me Chantelle. Seriously. So far this year I've been both Chantelle and Catherine. Great. I finished my rough draft before anyone else and started my good copy. The aid, Mrs Baker came up to me and started talking to me in really small words and slowly before asking if I was supposed to be in a different class and I explained and all of the sudden she used big words and talked faster. It was a little bit funny.

Science was alright, I sat with Anne Marie and Stephen Kenny, two people I knew that were okay and we made a map of the human body. There were too other people with us too but I only remember the girls name - Anh. The teacher was a bitch but bearable.

After lunch I went to Mr. Gorman, the co-ordinator and he sorted out my math class and electives, Painting and Drawing on Mondays, Japanese on Tuesdays (I only did that because that would be so awesome to be with Issy and Caitlin and drive Mr. Yoshi mad), Wednesdays Drama and then Japanese, Thursdays Painting and Drawing and Friday Drama with Caitlin. I got slotted into MAC with Mrs Owen and by the time I got to Maths there was only ten minutes left of the period so I didn't have to do any work.

IFT was fun! The teacher we had, Miss Frankish was just like Mrs T. from year 7, absolutely awesome! I didn't do any work in that class either because I didn't have any login info but I got the newsletters and stuff. It was funner than I thought it would be and I hope tomorrow is the same.

So I've been here for four days now. Its scary. It doesn't feel as if it has been that long at all...
I've been moping under my covers for four days straight, only coming out to eat, pee, see Jasmine and shower.
There is a 1% chance Werribee will change their mind and let me back in... I want to go back, I don't want to go to Galvin.
My dad is halfway willing to let me attend school at the Werribee Community centre where I can get my year 10 pass a year early. My sister went there for a year and a half.
It's a school for misfits, people with problems, people who are different. People like me?
Maybe I need to get help. I don't want to end up a basket case like Dixon off Greys. Or maybe its too late.

I'm worried about my friend Courtney. I know its propbably stupid and all but I used to see her online at least once a day and I haven't seen her online since before I left. Caitlin says she is fine but I dunno, I just worry.
I'm worried about Jasmine too, about leaving her at Werribee. I know she won't be alone, she'll have Jacqui, Caitie and Issy and Jessica and even the pansy Josh and his angry friend Jesse (who she thinks is hot or something? I dunno, you two would make a great couple?). But I kinda feel like I was her outlet for... prawns (inside joke) and other things. I guess Jacqui could be her new 'me' but I dunno how I feel like that I'm afraid of losing contact with her.

Speaking of Jasmine, we caught up on Thursday. Got some Slurpees and walked down to the tables where we laughed about stuff and I found the initials I engraved into the table. We went and saw Chantel B. too, she has not changed at all lookswise. I havent talked to her long enough to see if her personality has changed.

Today I was awoken by my dad who said we had people coming to look at the house. I was sooo tired and quickly got dressed and made my room perfect in 5 minutes flat... Then I came out and they had left! I was very annoyed by that. My dad left shortly after and I retreated into my bed and waited for Dollhouse to be uploaded. Mir came on and we talked a bit.
I'm dying my hair tomorrow, either going Ella Scott Lynch:
Ella Scott Lynch )
or Drew Barrymore:
Drew Barrymore )
With both I'll also have to bleach my hair and by some kind of black hair color spray to cover it up while I'm at home. My dad would have a fit.
I'm going to my sisters tomorrow, might see baby Danika. Kathleen can help me with my hair seeing as she has done hers a million times.
I should probably sleep really soon so I'll cut this post off here.

My new years resolution:
to be more honest.
I'm not exactly calling myself a liar, but occasionally I do tell little white lies to people because I don't want to hurt them, but yet I know that I would want to know so I could change it or fix it. So all of 2009 you can expect a totally honest answer.

So today I met up with Caitlin and Courtney at the library. I seemingly got there first and then Caitlin arrived and we waited outside for Courtney for a while before Caitlin rang up Courts mum and it turned out that Courtney was already inside the library LOL
We sat down at a a table and spread our stuff out and I got out the chapter examples, map of Inverloch and Character Profiles. Courtney thought the guy I choose to 'be' the love interest of my character was cute lol. AND HE IS! He is freaking hot lol.

From about 1:15-2:20 we did practically nothing but talk and laugh and catch up on the times and joke lol. Oh and there was this creepy blonde lady who kept staring at us LOL and well, I guess we were being loud, but not very loud, normal talking voices... which isn't very good for a library. Anyway Courtney got it into her head that the woman was only angry because she wasn't getting any vampire sex... which of course sent Cait and I into hysterics LOL.

We talked some more about Rick Roll and Courtney did impressions of that strange creature with eyes on his hands from the labyrinth. It was hilarious. Finally we got down to work and came up with our plot and Cait and Court did a little more of their character profile before the library closed and Courts mum came to pick us up. We went to Courts place and played hangman with her little brother Blake (?) and then did some more plotting for the story and detailed the maps with where we wanted to put shops and stuff. Then it was time for me to go.

It was an awesomely fun day :)

So today was my party. Things were sort of looking up at home but not that much.
Jasmine came at four and I straightened her hair. Issy came next then Caitlin & Courtney, then Jacqui came and then Jessica. There was seven of us all together. We started off with the pass the parcel then went for a walk. Caitlin was busy snogging Josh whose house we went to. We then got slurpees and I started feeling down. We went back to Josh's and waited for them to stop snogging. We walked home and had birthday cake. We played truth or dare and laughed a lot. It was good getting away from everything. We got on the topic of sex and we laughed about that. Issy's mum came but she was kind enough to wait 10 minutes or so. Jessica's mum came and then Issy and Jess went home. Caitlin's dad came to take Cait and Courtney home and before they left Caitlin was like "Who has sexual fantasies about Carlisle" and then everyone said me lol. As they went out the gate I called Caitlin the sexual fantasy revealer. Jacqui went next and me and Jasmine cleaned up. Jasmine is staying the night.

I have Issy's party tomorrow! OMG we had so much sugaaaaaar tonight.

Over the past two years I've made more friends than I ever had in Primary school. Year 7 was Georgi, Caitlin and Kate, only three but still they got me through the year. This year I still have Caitlin (and Jasmine from primary school) but it seems I always have someone to run to. Jacqui, Issy, Leighton & Stacey, Nicky, Siti and Alisha. These guys have become my family. Caitlin and Jasmine and Isabella and even Jacqui are like sisters to me, and Leighton could be the dirty minded brother, Nicky & Siti & Stacey & Alisha are my cousins. You guys make life so much easier at school. One day I will find a way to thank you guys.

So, overslept today, but not for very long. Arrived at school an hour or so later to discover Caitlin would not be attending school as she threw up three times. So I waited in the hallway while occasionally making "Blow Daine" jokes to Fabian. Jacqui soon arrived and we went to Science where we did electricity stuff. Jacqui and I talked about "Fradentical" twins and we decided that we were Fradentical Woglets (She's half greek, half Aussie, and I'm half Italian, half Aussie... Lishaa is our fellow half woglet :P she's half German, half Aussie).

The bell went and we went to English. I collected my poems and stuff and we did a little bit of theory and then spelling. I hope I land up in 9E next year and have Mrs T.

Recess was spent with Jazz Pants of course.

Art. The usual chillout zone. Mrs G weirded up the tables so we were all squished together. Sat next to my fradentical woglet and the other woglet. We did a weird painting thing with Gesso (Which reminded us of Gello). The Fradentical Woglet and I spent half the lesson drawing Deliah and Delores, the two dinosaurs which would carry Bella, Jacob, Rosalie, Mike, Eric, Tyler and Esme off to some land away from the other vamps. Alter Ego Jacqui and Alter Ego CJ controlled the dinosaurs while Siti sailed overhead with a kite made out of her headscarf and Nicky and Alisha glided along on her leg. Down on the ground Edward carried Jacqui off to his love nest and Carlisle and I danced.

The Fradenticle Woglet and I hung out at lunch with Jazz Pants and we talked about beauty and inner beauty. We had a skank attack when McSatan and two Identical skanks walked past us. I wonder what Identical skanks are called... Skadentical?

Had Japanese next... actually did a little work. Issy got sent out. I have a jam packed weekend, my party on the Friday and hers on the Saturday. Geography and The Fradentical Woglet and I sat together and listened to the teacher lecture at the start and then we did our work...

Other news: I started editing my NaNo 06 novel (unfinished), Almost Perfect.

So I thought today was just gonna be one of those lazy Sundays, but I was wrong. I went on MSN and then Courtney signed on and we chatted a while and then Caitlin went to her house and they invited me over! Of course I wasn't dressed so I took half an hour to do so and then I went outside to wait and I wrote on the concrete with chalk... I wrote "CARLISLE IS A HOT SEXY VAMPIRE!" Needless to say, I hope it rains.

Caitlin and Courney got here and I got in the car, ect. We got to Courtney's place and talked a little while I read Caitlin's fanfiction and we laughed about Baby Jesus! Then we went outside to see Caitlins wouldbe boyfriend James and then they (Caitlin and James) versed each other at Basketball... I'm pretty sure Caitlin lost :P Then we went back inside and had chips and chicken and talked about how big Edward and Carlisle's feet must be... Caitlins dad and sisters arrived and we went outside to watch Caitlin and her dad play James and Blake play basketball. It was pretty funny.

Then it was time to go home and I went with Caitlin, Caitlins sister and her dad. Caitlins sister is cute lol.

Got home and here I am :) I had soo much fun, cant wait for my party on friday.

So nothing happened today, well not really.
Started off with English and Mrs C was away again. We did our text responses. Geography next, and surprise surprise, another lecture. I did not miss her at all on Friday.

Science was cool, we watched a DVD called the Inconvienient Truth, with that Al Gore dude and it had a clip from futurama in it where the little girls icecream melted and a guy said it was the fault of Global Warming and she was like "global wobble?". It was seriously cute. I started that story again, the one about the girl who gets super powers. I really do hope it is better than it sounds. Then we had Math and Mrs. G was back which was cool.

Caitlin hung out with Leighton, Jasmine and I in the library today and we played Uno, without being kicked out for once, though we did get yelled at a few times by Miss L who is seriously cranky all the time. Caitlin and I have a few theories to share about this, but none appropriate to share :P

Textiles was frustrating. I couldnt find my pants/cushion design so I made a gay looking one onto to find the original before the lesson finished. It was all good though.

Also I think I am coming down with something, for real this time, I'm not just "sick". I asked the others if they would have "injuries" tomorrow and they said maybe. Caitlin said she may have a real injury instead of just an "injury" from the supertopsecret secret she has. And no Jasmine, that is not to be taken as something Dirty. I know how your mind opperates missy, and I only have the best intentions. Anyway, back on topic, Jacqetta may have an "injury" and Siti said she may have one too. Alisha said she wouldn't, but then again who knows with her.

Onto the story. Currently untitled.
There are two of them, one in "I" and one in "she". Please tell me which is better!

So today was pretty good. Caitie Pants was at Hockey so that meant I got to spend some quality time with Jacqetta.

Drama was pretty awesome as always, Mrs. Hall is so eccentric, and stern but so awesome. I sat next to Jacqetta and Nickers was in front of us and we pretty much spent the whole lesson talking and laughing about random stuff like how Mrs. Hall talks to herself, and how it would be totally awesomely random if everyone in the yr. 8 classes suddenly burst into song and dance like they do in HSM.

English was uneventuf, Mrs. C was away. I finished reading Once (awesome book by Morris Gleitzman about the Nazis) and sat there the rest of the lesson. We had a test in math, but it was okay. Percentages mostly suck though, and we're doing Probability and Sets next, and I flipped back to that part of the textbook, and seriously oh my god, it was like Algebra, but so much worse. I really do not know how I will survive that topic.

Caitie pants reappeared for Japanese and she was feeling sick so I told her I would marry Mr. Bean, and then I asked her if she would like to be the godmother of our blob-like children (alisha, Josh, Jesse, Yoshi, Nicky and Bean Jr.) and she accepted. I asked her boyfriend if he would be the godfather but he declined so I asked Issy and she was said no so I told her she could be the Fairy Godmother. I proceeded to draw Caitie Pants starring our friends (the top was me, Caroltop, the pants herself, the socks Siti, the knickers Nickers (lol, Nicky) and of course Jacqetta the jacket). She went home after that so I proceeded to Geography.

Mrs. R was in such a crappy mood, she got mad because six people failed the test and yelled at the whole class (seriously is it all of our faults if half the class are dumbasses who have total disregard for the rest of us?). I sat next to Fabian and Jacqetta and was seriously grossed out by the amount of dandruff on Fabian's head. He didn't want to sit next to me but I went told him it wasn't like I was going to kiss him or anything (lol, only people who were in Wood Tech yesterday would get that) and he said he knew, but he was afraid I would kill him :P.

Then finally, it was 3pm and we could finally go home and recuperate for the weekend. Everyone is more impatient on Fridays. The people in the corridoor were pushing and shoving and standing around, but I still got to my bus.

I got a new computer screen and it is seriously huge. None of my wallpapers fit anymore :(. Anyway, I put up a new layout of the two aunts from Pushing Daisies. Then my sister came over, and she is still here, but luckily her and her sugar daddy (literally!) are conversing with my dad and I am left to listen to my music and chat to Jasmine.

My ankle still hurts from sport on Wednesday morning. I hope it is gone by next week because running on an ankle that hurts everytime you twist it is a pain in the neck.

Anyway, I am tired so I'll cut this journal entry off right here.
