Ah, Ancient History
Me again. In Ancient. Again.
We're all sitting around preparing for our essay assessment task next week on preserved human remains, you know, Otzi the Iceman and the like. I have Margie on my right surprised at the fact that they found a body from the Iron Age who had his hair in a mohawk with the use of hair gel made from resin and something else (she's gone off the page now, so I can't see. Darn) and my friend Kristie and I lamenting our Extension English creative writing tasks. I might post it up here later, we shall see.
I'm seriously lacking in new recordings for my youtube page as my computer has, sadly, kicked the proverbial bucket. *sniff* It's gone and died completely, so I cannae make recordings without the help of my Audacity overlay so I can add harmonies and the like. So, that's annoying, considering I have a ton I want to record.
Musical continues to be awesome, even in the absence of rehearsals. We were meant to have one yesterday, except we're the only school that had gone back yesterday, so it was cancelled *stab*. Next rehearsal tomorrow, but even when rehearsals aren't on, I catch myself humming the songs, or sitting in the car mentally singing "Roustabout" every time we go around a roundabout. (I know, I'm that sad :P) and walking around reciting lines (not all of which are even mine XD) and singing other people's songs. Seriously, when this musical is over I'm going to go into withdrawal. Holidays nearly killed me, two weeks without seeing everyone; imagine what I'll do when I can't go.. at all. It'll be so tough!! But I'm desperately hoping that I'll stay in touch with a lot of my friends from there, I've met so many brilliant people that I'm not willing to say goodbye to.
So anyway, faithful reader, I should probably get back to work. I love this blog, gives me a chance to rant! Ari's looking into blogging for Girlfriend magazine (I think it's Girlfriend, anyway) and I really want to try now, but I don't want to chime in when she's been working on it, so we'll see.
Over and out, mi amigas/amigos!

Update - taken TOO LONG.
I recently discovered a site called FML.
It's basically where a bunch of people can go online and post about what goes wrong in their lives, from falling off a chair in front of someone important to discovering they'd been drugged. (Weird, I know.)
I reckon I could contribute a lot to that site.
Let's see.
School. Ok, except the workload's insane, I have practically no time for homework, and as soon as we get to week two, I'm going to be hit by a truckload of exams, and I don't know how I'm going to cope. Oh, and I failed the maths exam. Saw that coming.
Holidays. Salvation, to be honest, but holidays aren't what they used to be. They've gone from relaxation time where you hang out with friends and sleep in a lot to school days... where you don't actually have to go into school. I'm currently redoing the entire Year 9/10 maths syllabus because I'm rubbish, as well as studying for all my exams and writing my Faustian appropriation task for English extension.
Musical. Pretty great, though I have an issue. As I said in my last post, my character falls in love with and eventually marries her sidekick. There's just one problem with how he makes her fall in love with him.
He kisses her.
Properly.
I'm more than a little nervous, to be honest. And the more I think about it, the more pathetic I realise I am. I'm 16 years old!! 99% of teenagers have snogged someone by the age of 16, and my first kiss is going to be in front of hundreds of people. On stage. With someone I barely know.
Still, as far as career path indications go, that's not bad.
Another musical issue - my friend has no poker face, and she’s gone and fallen for this guy at the musical and now EVERYONE (including him, apparently) knows. I’m really upset for her, considering she’s so young (year below me) and she’s never dated or anything (then again, I can’t really talk, lol). So yeah, I hope it turns out ok for her.
So, what else is new? Right now I’m sitting in Ancient History, typing this on a Word document with white font so no one can see what I’m typing. Clever, no?
I have rehearsal again on Wednesday, I had two full day ones on the weekend, they were fantastic! Seriously, it actually could be illegal to have that much fun in one 48 hour period. I had rehearsal on Sat from 10-5, then my friend’s 17th birthday party, then rehearsal again on Sunday from 10-5 again. Basically a weekend of hanging out with friends, singing, dancing, acting, sharing interesting experiences and news, having the best time in the world.
And now, two days until my next one. Too. Damn. Long.
Like the length of time it's taken for me to post something new. Also too damn long. I shall be having a stern word with Di and Ari. Shame, really. Shame on us all.
Talk later!
