Well last weekend and last monday night i spent ages 'editing' brads story for english. We spent ages fleshing it out to 3 pages, but in the end i felt real good about it. Best story we ever did togther. Way better than that weird depressed baseball clown thing he came up with before. Anyways so he handed it in last tuesday and i was real excited to get our mark back, then thursday he comes home with it. The teach said it was a good story and all but it was meant to be 3 pages DOUBLE SPACED. So grrrrrrrrrrr cos i spent so much time making it so long in the first place. And grrrrrrrrr cos i had to cut in half! Which was so hard, instead of the whole introduction theres just one clunky paragraph now. So that really bugged me. Still waiting back on our final mark.
I've had a few uni assignmnets due too seeing as its the last few weeks before break which by the way i am so hanging out for). I had the worst most stressful day EVER last wednesday. I almost started crying in the library cos i was so so so stressed out. And it was over the most stupid little thing! I had my technology CD due and we'd been working on it class so i was pretty much done. i figured i'd go to the final tute finish it up hand it in and be out of uni hours early. Instead i get there and the tutor tells us that the final bit of the assignment is making a cd lable. And that was no big, i had it done in minutes. But i tried printing it and it just wouldnt. so i went and finished my cd off then went downstairs to print it and it wouldnt work. So i went to the Library and tried printing it about 20 times and it would just dissapear from the printing queue. And i'm just like what the hell is that about?
So i get pretty annoyed and miss my bus cos this stupid page wont print. So i figure i'll go over to the hunter library cos i've printed stuff off over there heaps of times and it'll work. So i went over there. And for like an hour i'm trying everything to print off this one stupid part of my assignmnet and it just wouldnt happen. And so i'm so stressed out that i'm not ganna get to hand it in. And finally after an hour the library ladies finallly figure out that the page isnt set to A4, and i just had to change that one setting. And could i hate my tutor more for not telling us that we had to do that? But in the end i got it in on time.
I have two more assignmnet due over the next week. I have one 1000 word developemental summary due fiday that i havnt even looked at really. I'm not even exactly sure what a developemental sumary is. But i'm ganna have to spend all of tomorrow finding out. Then next wed i have a panel due on dramatic play. Which i have done some work on but i'm not really sure if i'm heading in the right direction. I missed handing in my draft to disscuss today cos i went home sick.
I've just felt awful since friday. I woke up with a horrible cold and felt like dieing. I had to work friday afternoon too. I ended up taking a bit of every type of medicine we had in the house. I almost fell asleep on the bus i was so drowsy. And i've pretty much felt the same since, just awful. And we ran out of dimetapp last night so i had no medicine this morning and i was a mess in class. Sneezing and having coughing fits during the video and talking all stuffy. I wasnt very productive. So i decided just to go home. My partner wasnt there anyways.
I felt so bad yeterday. I got to the center and heidi was waiting for me and she wasnt exactly chipper, but i figured she was just tired. So we go inside and start working and after awhile shes still all bummed and said something about not coming in today. And so i start asking whats up, is she sick, stressed, whatever. And i'm all come on whats up? And shes just like 'My best friend died on the weekend'. Turns out she's known this girl her whole life and she died in a car crash saturday night and heidi had to put together a eulogy for friday. I dont even know what she was doing at uni. Poor heidi, i felt so bad for bringing it up.
Got me thinking out what i'd say in a eulogy. For bec or whatever. I dont think i'd give one. I mean i'm not so good with words and hate speaking in front of people and i figure i'll be upset enough at the funeral without having to make a speech. But then again if i cant get over talking in front of people for the sake of my poor dead best friend, i'm probably not much of a friend anyways and probably shouldnt make a eulogy. So i planned to plan to speak at the funeral but when i'd get up there i'd burst into tears and be too distraught to actually have to say it.
But then i thought what if someone else then got up to read my eulogy on my behalf, i'd still have the issue of having to write something good. And you'd want yours to be better than everyone elses. I mean if i've known bec my whole life i'd want to come up with something better than 'she was nice' you know. But i'm not good with the anecdotes and nice speeches so it would probably just come out lame. So i just wont have anything pre written. I'll just say i'm ganna go up there and 'speak from the heart' and then just get out of it by crying. So it would be like i really care and want to tell them all how much i loved my poor dead friend, but i just couldnt. And then they would be all awwwww she misses her poor dead friend she must have really loved her, i bet she would have made a really nice eulogy. So in the end everyone thinks i'ma great euolgy maker even though i ddint even have to do anything. Its a great plan. Also random.
In other news i'm on a big Full House kick at the moment. We got a new DVD player that plays files from CD's and memory sticks. So we can download stuff and watch it on TV instead of the computer. And so i went through some of our movie file cd's and found full house season 6. And yeah i've been watching it heaps lately. Its so much my favourite show ever! I love it. So much so that now i'm working my way through downloading season 1. And how cute was stephanie back then, with her little curls. I love full house (i love taht amphibian) its just so lame and goofy. I figure i'm ganna get the DVD's off ebay. How could i not when i love it so much.
And yes lets see what else. Oh one thing i remeber thinking i have to tell diaryland about is the absolutly heartbreaking discovery that wentworth is deadly allergic to cats. and i have a baby cat! So we're not going make it. And i really thought we had a chance. He's on tonight, i plan to watch even though we're through. I know who holly is, she's his wife. I didnt care so much about spoilers for prison break cos i was more into the looking at wentworth than the show, but now i'm kinda getting sucked in. When i found out the he has a wife news i was actually shocked and appaled and thought poor sara. And when the cat died, i cared. So i've pretty much been seduced by the lame side. But still wentworths on the lame side so i dont so much care.
Speaking of people not making it, it would seem melissa and allan are through. Dad said something a few days ago, monday maybe, about them calling it quits. Dad invited her to move back home. INTO MY ROOM. Without even asking! You cant just offer up my little sanctuary without aksing. And even if you ask the answer will be no! Thats my home! Didnt matter anyways cos she declined. She and allan planned to live together untill other arrangments could be made or something. But last night she rang up bout 9:30 all crying and dad and went and picked her up and brought her home. So it looks like she'll be staying here for awhile after all. She's in B's room at the moment though. I dunno how long she'll be staying, if it's long term dad says he'll give up his room though. So me and my room are sfae, and thats what really matters in this situation. I'm not selfish.
It was billy's birthday yesterday. I got him a bunch of lollies and credit. I cant believe he's 15. He still seems 12 to me. Except he talks back more. Rude little PA. we went out to nans and had cake and stuff and was all pleasent enough. The day ended in a big blah though. Awhile ago simon bought this game, world of warcraft, and its his and bradleys favourite game. They are always playing it and talking about it like regular little nerds. And cos simon bought the game only he has the password to get into it. And he makes b pay for time to play it. So for ages simons had this power trip over bradley making him give him things and do things for him in order to be allowed to play this game.
Anyways for b's birthday dad bought the game off simon so that b could own it aswell and they both could play it as much as they want without resorting to slavery. And simon was cool with this and dad paid him. But yesterady, b's birthday, simon decided he didnt want to anymore because he wants to keep the power. So he refused to let bradley play the game and wont give dad his money back either. And dad spent like over and hour trying to talk to simon reasonably and then more time angrily about it, but simon wouldnt give up the password. And so b talked to simon trying to make a compromise, ofering to give SIMON stuff even though it was his birthday. But simon was just so so selfish about it and just wont let anyone play it besides himself. Even though he's alreday been paid so the game technically isnt rightfully his anymore. He's just rediculous. He's the most selfish person i've ever known.
I have to go and register for my first big placemnet at five. I plan to go to Merindah Children's centre in wallsend. I'm still freaked about spending a whole month by myself at one of these places. But this semesetr has been alot better than last year. I dont hate uni as much as i did last year. So i figure i'm at least going to stick it out untill the end of the year. Which means getting through this placement. Which eeeeeeeeeee much.
Anyways i think thats the extent of my news, drama and gosspi. I should really try and write it in here as it happens instead of letting it build up like this.
hnk lyl
