Hey guys well been a while since I've posted something because I've been off enjoying my holidays! lol no I haven't gone anywhere just been at home being the lazy ass I am :) Ah the good life lol anyways I'm writing this blog to recommend a book a just finished and as shocking as it would be to the people at school it's not a Twilight book *shock horror!* no not really people just need to get over themselves sometimes lol.

So the book is called The Hunger Games and it's by Suzanne Collins


Here's a summary I got from her website:

"Katniss is a 16-year-old girl living with her mother and younger sister in the poorest district of Panem, the remains of what used be the United States. Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, "The Hunger Games." The terrain, rules, and level of audience participation may change but one thing is constant: kill or be killed. When her sister is chosen by lottery, Katniss steps up to go in her place. "

Anyways some peeps on TA recommended it and I thought I've give it a try adn OMG it's amazing!  Really suspenseful and unpredictable can't wait to read the sequal which comes out in Sept :)  I recommend the book for people who like adventure adn suspense :)

I gotta go now but check it out ok  bye!

Ok so I'm finally on a long overdue holidays from school sadly it's only 2 weeks but it'll have to do for now anyway.  And I've actually done a lot in these past two days like yesterday I went to the optometrist and she said I need new glasses cause my prescription went up :P damn me being short sighted! So anyway these are the glasses I'm getting:



They're Burberry and are so cute! I love them can't wait to get them!!!

Also I got an I love Jacob and Edward shirt from Supré cause they were on sale for $7.50 lol I am cheap and even though they are cheesy and a bit crappy I still kinda like them but it's stupid cause then they have I love Ryan and Matthew shirts which is kinda like WTF who are ryan and matthew?! lol  Then again it's Supré tis to be expected.  Then I got Heroes season 2 which was also on sale but for $33 :)  So yesterday was fairly productive.

And today I had to get up to go to the markets cause there was the Mexican stall thing and apparently the food was really good....LIES it was SH*T!  But lucky I had waffles to save me.  So after that we went to the mall and I walked around a bit then we went into Myer and I got 2 books Airhead: Being Nikki by Meg Cabot and Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead which I got a very good price of $20 together! Cause the guy gave me 35% off on both by mistake lol so nowI have a few more books to read over the holidays after I finish The Hunger Games whihc I'm reading now.

So that's all I've done so far these holidays lol more like two days of them but whatever.  I'll post up my grades later cause for now I'm off to watch the HP crew and Short Stack on Rove ;)

BYE!

To Michael Jackson and Farah Fawcett who both have sadly passed today.  Both great and wonderful people who changed the world and I send my condolences to their familes.

To be honest I was so far more shocked to hear Michael Jackson died than Farah only because I knew of her illness :( and she wasn't really my era you know? Neither is Michael Jackson but he was more well known to me that's why it really shocked me, I couldn't believe it was true at first because it seems so strange and surreal just like when Heath Leadger died :(  I'm not like a massive fan for him or anything I just have a lot of respect for him for all he's been through in his life what he's acheived and not to mention his music was a turning point in history!

Which is why I'm so angry at people who have already come up with horrible MJ jokes about his death, I mean it happened with Heath and Steve Irwin but seriously some people need to show repect, yeah Michael Jackson  was a bit of a weirdo and he may or may not have been a pedo but that's not the point because how do they think he's family and friends feel? He already had to go through of that in life and now in death?!  And I bet that if people did that to them they'd feel hurt and sad.  Regardless whether he's famous or not he was still a person with feeling and he's family and friends are too.  I just wish people would seriously think twice before saying something stupid!

Anyways RIP Michael and Farah you will both always be stars in people's eyes and never be forgotten :(

In honor of the King of Pop: What is your favorite Michael Jackson song?

I'd say either Don't Stop Til You Get Enough, Billie Jean, Black Or White or Thriller!

But overall I love all his songs because he was seriously a musical genius!

So it's almost 2pm and I'm sitting hre at school in my compuuter apps class cause it's basically a blugde for the rest of the term (which is only two weeks)

I'm kinda bored right now not really in the mood to read my book (I'm currantly reading Evernight by Claudia Gray, I've heard mixed reviews on it), so I'm kinda just writing this and listening to music (now it's the Ting Tings).  Since I have nothing better to do I guess I can tell u about my day so far i haven't done much of that in a while.

Here's my day so far woke up...late had to get lunch and breakfast ready fast, ate, got dressed, brushed my teeth and out the door :) Got to school just on time to go to my locker to shove my valuables in there cause I had P.E. first and since the weather was pretty bad we combined classes.  The girls were given the option to go to the fitness room for a "work out", oh yeah I was thrilled about that but sicne everyone else was going and I wasn't really up for playing whatever with the guys, I opted for the fitness room which showed me just  how unfit i am (gosh I'm a fatty lol)  after we each all had a go at each equipment we did streches which I think gave me a cramp or something cause since then my hip has been hurting all day it hurts right now.  God dunno how I'll feel tomorrow I'm such a wuss :P

So after that I had Robotics Rosa wasn't here and I had nothing to do so I decided to go visit Lauren in Art, her class was watching POTC 3 so I just sat and read and watched Lauren work on her major art :) 

After that lovelyness of doing nothing I had science JOY!....NOT! I really don't like science it's so boring or maybe it's just the fact that I have a teacher who can't actually teach!  I think that's the reason -- great the people in my class right now are playing with the fire exstigusher (?) cause the teacher's not in here.  Anyways as I was saying my science teacher is a nut job who can't teacher (X_X) but we got our test results back for our science test on motion which I got lets just say got bad on (15 out of 41) I don't plan on telling my parents just like I didn't tell them about those Ds.....shhhhh.  But then my crazy teacher said u could improve ur grade and he gave us our tests and we were allowed to change them which I think is just stupid because everyone could just CHEAT without even trying so I couldn't be bothered and I just read for the rest of the lesson but i did get good on my assignemnt 19 out of 20 BOO YAH!  Then it was lunch which was same old same old.

And now I'm in advanced computer apps and I think I'm the only girl in the room and the rets of the people in here are being dickheads because they have nothing better to do.  Anywho I'm getting a haircut after school today @ 4pm and i'm thinking of getting a fringe like a nice longish one not a side fringe like I used to have before I grew my hair out.  Also I'm getting layers and a "style" cause my hair has gone all blah and split.  I seriously need a haircut.  Also tomorrow I'm getting my eyebrows waxed for my party and yesterday I got my outfit for the party it's exciting! (I'll post the pics when I'm @ home).  And so yeah on the beauty side of things of my party I'm ready and everyone's confrimed but GRACE! (HINT HINT!) lol and I'm excited on turning 16 I mean it only comes around once in a life time but whatever anyways  I think I'll go edit some pictures or something cause I don't have anything else to write about so bye!

SEND *click*

Ok just sent out all my birthday invitations hope no one gets mad I didn't invite them, well except for Daise who I really don't like because she's so nosy and plain annoying.  But still I hope everyone understands and doesn't hold grudges forever like Rosella does, because seriously she needs to get over some of the things she holds against people.  Also I hope Katharine won't mind that I only invited my HS friends and not my old ones, although I don't really get why she's never taken a liking to my new friends or even tried to :(  I mean I did, when I met some of her friends I was nice and I sort of made friends with them like a good best friend should do.  It's not like 10 years of friendship doesn't count for anything she could at least try to talk to them.

Hmm I better get some sleep so I can get up tomorrow and try to discreetly hand out my invitations to everyone.

*Next day at school*

"Hey Christin," I said walking over to Christin and the rest of our group, to where we normally stand together each morning before school starts.
"Hey Vanora, what's up?" She asked
"Nothing much, what about you?" I replied
"Same," she said laughing, I was really anxious and wanted to give her and Meg their invites but Joss, Colin and Schmuel were sort of just standing there so I felt bad if I gave one to Christin but not everyone else, so then finially when everyone left I quickly give Christin hers and that was pretty much how my day went, while hand out invatations wise anyway.

I get home and after a little "nap", I check my emails, I get an email reply from Katharine about my party, she says she can't come because she's going to Sydney. I'm sad and a bit annoyed she can't come but it's probably for her dance or something.

Next day she send me a Bebo comment and I as why is she going to Sydney.  And it's because of the GREAT reason being that she's going shopping and already booked the hotel with her family and thought "I wasn't having a party this year".  Part of me says I shouldn't be so angry at her it's not her fault, there wasn't much notice and you did say you weren't sure if you were having a party.  But then another is like B*TCH! Only because we've been friends for 10 years and it's my 16th birthday, she knows that and I make sure I NEVER plan big things like going away to Sydney near her birthday or on her birthday weekend.  For something like shopping! Which she can do anytime, yet she chooses it be the weekend just before my birthday, my party weekend!

Although she does suggest we go to the movies in the holidays but that's not the same. Which makes me feel just guilt for being mad at her, cause I know she said sorry, but seriously if you think about WHY THE HELL WOULD MY BEST FRIEND PLAN SOMETHING LIKE SHOPPING IN SYDNEY SO CLOSE TO MY BIRTHDAY! I know I'll have the rest of my friends but it's not the same, because she's like a sister to me and I've know her almost my whole life, but she's changed so much since we both went off to different high schools.  I know everyone changes I have not much but enough to sort of tell but I swear she's not the same person I used share recess with when I was little and it really just hurts to think about you know, well I guess you might not.

So my dilemma is: Is it bad for me to be pissed off at her for not being able to come to my birthday part cause she already made plans to go shopping in Sydney?  Part of me says YES the other says NO

(This is just a story, which may or may not reflect how I'm feeling right now)

So here's the story I wrote for english that the teahcer read out:

College…university…job…decision and future.  My future, my choice and my life…

 

It’s the last day; the last day to submit my college application that is, even though it’s just college, it’s suppose to be ‘the most important schooling years of your life’, at least that’s what my parents tell me and it’s what our school’s career advisor, Ms Stonem, is telling our year group right now.  We are outside today for our year meeting because the teachers thought everyone should get some vitamin D and sit in the dirt.  Everyone else seems to be listening intently and I really should be listening but I just can’t help my mind from wandering whenever this particular topic is brought up.

 

Read if you truly want to... )

...But I've seen better days

lol it's the song I'm listening to right now, which btw I'm at school right now and I've finished all my work so I decided it's about time I updated my blog now I have to! YAY I have no more homework or assignments!!!

YAY!!!
This is very exciting because I don't think I've had much free time lately gah and I've heard college is worse, oh and I appiled to college last night YAY lets hope I get in cause I'm  "out of area" whatever I already go to one have of the school, don't see why I can't just get in lol anyways I have a story to tell which I will have to type really fast cuse I only have 5 mins let til recess ok here we go:

On friday we had English (yes with the teacher who I think is a bit strange and odd) but anyways on friday we got our short stories assignments back (I'll post mine up when I'm back @ home) so anyways I got 26 out of 32 which is like YAY because I suck at creative writing and I wrote most of the story the night before it was due until like 2am LOL.

So we got them back and then we had to do this thing where we have to sort of review our story because our otehr assignement was to review a short story lol so then the teacher wanted to read out someone's to the class and this was how it was down:

Teacher: um who's can I read? Vanessa! Can I read yours?
Me: uhhhh.....sure
Grace: aww I was reading it!
*teacher talks to class and grabs my story and begins to read out to class*

People start looking at me because it sounded a bit like how school was right now.....I start going red and find it really hard to make eye contact with anyone.  Because the way the teacher was reading it made it sound so CHEESY!  I was like cringing away and just stared at my desk for the rest of it.

Grace was trying to comfort me and kept saying it was good but u know that feeling u get when ur sort of proud of something and everyone sees it and u don't really want to seem like your boasting to everyone but secertly inside i was happy but it was still pretty embrassing =#

lol anyways thats my story.  I have a science test tomorrow GAH

BYE!!!

So this is an entry about the dream I had last night it's the first time I've posted one of my dreams, I hardly ever do because I never remember them but if I remember more and want to share I'll post more dream entries :)

Anywho last night I had a dream about my birthday (which in June btw), so it was birthday and I had invited all my friends to come to the movies with me to see this movie called Tormented (it's an actual movie and I do want to see it), so we were all at the movies and I was weirdly very dressed up cause I had a dress on (a nice dress I may add lol) and make up and I think my hair curled (I have straight hair) weird.....anyway I was going to sit down on the seat, it was elevated seating and for some reason I was carrying a whole bunch of lollies and popcorn and stuff and as I stepped to get to my seat and sit down, I somehow missed and started falling into like blackness then I stopped and I was holding on to the edge of the seat with all the food and stuff I was holding on the seat.  Then i just laughed it off and then I was trying to give food some my cousin who was a few rows down and again the falling.  Again it stopped and I laughed it off and went back to my seat.  The movie was about to start, when my phone rang I answered; it was Tom Fletcher from McFly!  I was freaking out that Tom had called me on my birthday and it suddenly got too loud, so I went outside into the hallway to hear Tom better.  He was wishing me and happy birthday and was wondering if I'd like to go out with him and the rest of the boys to dinner.  Of course being me I said yes!

Suddenly I was at my house in my kitchen with Tom, the rest of McFly and their familes (mums, dads sisters, brothers, girlfriends) plus my own.  We were all talking and they were wishing me happy birthday and we were deciding where to go eat.  I was still finding very surreal I was in the same room as McFly and their families!

Then I woke up, it was so weird the dream was so vivid and real.  When I woke I just wish it was....

So I've now got a shit load of homework to do but i thought I'd write a quick blog about it. Also I've been/am going to heaps of college open nights this week and next week so I can decide which college I'll end up going to next year for year 11.  And frankly I'm a little afraid of college and next year because they are suppose to be the most important years of your schooling life (besices from Uni but they help u get there) and I guess I'm sort freaked out on how hard and tough it'll end up being.  Now I'm not saying I don't wanna go or anything I do because I want to be successful in life and not end up in a dead end job in which I'll hate forever.  It's just that I feel that there's a large amount of pressure put on you when you come to this point in your life but I suppose I'll have to cross that bridge soon enough for now I have to pick a college and submit my appilcation before the 12th of June and see where I go from there

To Do:
Science Prac report - Due ???
Maths Assignment - Due Tues 2nd June
English Short Story - Due Fri 5th June
Science Assignment - Due Tues 9th June
SOSE essay - Due Thurs 11th June


Til next time my fellow bloggers

With Love

SO yesterday was my second day @ work expirence, lets start form the beginning just so I don't confuse anyone.

Ok so I got there at around 9ish in the morning and I called the office of where my work exprience was and they said they'd send someone right down to sign in (cause you have to sign in and get check my security when u go into the Parliament House).  But I ended up waiting around 20-30mins for someone to come down and sign me in when I finally decided to call again for someone to come get me. But I swear at least two of the people that work there walked STRAIGHT PAST ME (-_-').............Not cool

Finally someone came and I got signed in, and I sort of just sat around for a while waiting for something to do and then I went to go get lunch but I forgot where the big nice lunch dining room was so I went to the other one and got a tuna sandwhich which was kinda gross :P and lets just say it wasn't cheap it was like 7 bucks (O_O) (I'm such a cheap ass lol).  After I finished eating an there was a job in woden and I got to go on that and I meet some health man I dunno who he was but i know the story was about bowal (?) cancer kits. So yeah after the interview we went back to parliament and I went back to sitting around and do nothing.

And I think that's what I basically did for the rest of the day just sat watching the tv or reading the newspaper lol

Now on to day 3 in my next blog enjoy!

Ok so let me tell you about my first day @ work exprience (yesterday).  Lets start at the beginning here we go:

So yesterday I woke up early got dressed and eat, and made myself pretty for my day @ Parliament House.  We got to Parliament House at about 9ish even though I started at 9:30am but my mum and I ended up waiting for the guy for about 15mins, when the man finally came he signed me in and I said goodbye to my mum :)

We walked up to the Gallery (Press) and my w/e man gave me a tour of all the other stations that were in the press gallery like 7, WIN, SBS, ABC and all that. Then I walked into the sort of office to where they worked, now it wasn't like a big massive studio or anything or like a really busy office, it had a smal studio which had chocolates and drinks in the corner of it and that was where they do Live Crossovers to here in Canberra which was pretty cool, there was also this massive computer like thing with all these cables in another part of the office which I think is for like sending stuff to Sydney adn doing live stuff. and they had 3 editing rooms which I got to sit and watch how they edited all the videos which go to air and etc. 

All those things were on one side of the suite office type thing on the other side was the office desk type place where they all sat and wrote stories, edited scripts, and each desk I noticed each had one TV next to it not like a big one but a mini one and they each played different TV stations and there was one big one in front of the table I was sitting at so they could watch when Ten news was on.

Anyways I met most of the people that work there, e.g. Cameramen, News reporters (the people u see on TV!!), Scriptwriters, Editors and etc. After that there wasn't anything for me to do or see, so I sort of sat around for a bit reading the newspaper then there was a job to go outside into the courtyard type thing to go film a piece for TV which was pretty interesting and cause the reporters have a certain voice for when they're talking to the camera so it was weird to hear them talk normally lol. 

Then we went back inside and I watched them edit the peice and send it off for the 11am news it was pretty cool to watch it on TV when I just watched it being filmed.  Then I sort of just sat around for an hour because there was nothing for me to do, then I went to go get lunch in their nice big caffitera (?) and I bought a turkey sandwhich with a coke.  Although I had to eat quickly cause we were gonna go out to the city to go film some children with their parents and some small businesses but there weren't like any kids with parents lol and none of the businesses wanted to be filmed so then we went to kingston and maunka and sill nothing so we went back  and I watched the guy edit it. 

Then there was an interview with some minster lady (I dunno her name lol) but she didn't really answer the questions she like started talking about something else then the report asked the same question in a different way and it was sort of the same lol.  Then on the way back to the gallery KEVIN RUDD WALKED PAST ME!  It was pretty awesome even if it's only Kevin Rudd but still the Prime Minster of Australia that's pretty big =D

After that I just sat watching everyone else do work til I went home @ 5pm, so overall my day was pretty cool I liked it journalism is difinetly something I'd like to get into but maybe not political journalism but you know journalism.

I'll tell you about today tomorrow cause I don't think I'll end up finishing it before I have to go to sleep and I need to cramp in some homework so

BYE!!!
