Examinations and Enlightenment.

Examinations: Unfortunately, due to the sadistic nature of our teachers, our end of year exams commenced on the VERY first day back at school. So after two weeks of insanely busy but thoroughly enjoyable holidays, I had to spend the early hours of Monday morning cramming for Australian Geography and PDHPE. Neither of which I actually care about of course but my profound fear of failure does lend itself to panic sometimes... On the whole I think I did okay.... which means I probably failed.
I then had singing, which was really cool because I learnt more of one of my german exam piece and am finally starting to get the technical stuff down.
Then had to briefly visit the DELIGHTFUL Rutherford IGA which i swear boasts the biggest range of condoms in the southern hemisphere!
Spent Monday night sleeping, dying my hair (pic soon) and eating Encillatas! Yum!
Tuesday I had English and Religion. In English I wrote a story about World of Warcraft Addicts and Religion was cool cause there was a find-a-word! Double English was bludgy so i wrote the guest list out for my party! On Tuesday night my family went to the gym while I crammed for maths. Something I continued until 2:30am!!!
We had our Maths exam this morning and I think I did okay but during the exam someones phone kept going off and they wouldn't let us leave until someone owned up for it. Liam Allen ended up handinghimself in, but I think it was Jade. Then we had collapsed classes for 4 & 5 and I drew Louis Armstrong. I went home at lunch and got to sit and watch The Boat That Rocked (which is awesome!!!) while eating REALLY good hamburgers from next door. Was verygood after all the stress of Maths.
Then I spent the evening making invites for my after party, which I still don't like, and talking on MSN...

OH AND WATCHING JOHN SAFRAN'S RACE RELATIONS - which was very wrong but very, very funny!

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW! YAY! Elective exams are tomorrow and mine don't have tests this time! So I'm going to either go summer job hunting in Maitland or bake cookies, depending on when i wake up! =P

After that I only have to survive my science exam and I'm done! lol. Can't Wait. 

In Other News...

• I REALLY WANT TO SEE WHIP IT! and that new Heath Ledger movie!
• I realised toight how much I REALLY like that boy.
• I need more episodes of Glee!

Enlightenment: During the last three days of holidays I was invited to attend the Rypen camp, run by the Rotary Camp. At first I was very hesitent, the idea of spending three days with people I'd never met before didn't sound too fun! BUT IT WAS! It was basically like retreat but not quite as nice.  The first day was really weird because no one knew each other but by the end of the second day we were getting along fine! I met a LOAD of awesome new people and it really helped me refocus on what really matters -especially at this time of year an this point in my life. I'm really glad I did it. My favorite things were singing, spacejump, building newspaper cubbies, the team challenges (like the spider web and the decoder challenge), the general socialising and BOARD BREAKING! WE GOT TO SMASH THEM! IT WAS AWESOME! After it was all over I was very happy but very tired. It was Lovely. ♥
