Shit just got real.

So the school year has began, the final year!I still can't get used to that.It's been shitty to mediocre.I slipped back into the usual rountine like i never had the break from it.From my first period i realised i was behind....already.Homework has been insane.Whenever I get through one subjects worth of homework more comes along.Not doing the chemistry work and reading the wrong novel first, over the holidays, made things 10x worse.I considered droping chem yerturday, but that was just a fantasy i used to ease my mind.Truth is chem will be way easier this year, it just has a huge work load which a lazy person like me can't bare to comprehend.I was disapointed when i realised i didn't have Ms Hufton because shes been one of the best teachers i've ever had, but Mr burke is even better, and i can tell i'll have the same respect for him that i did for ms Hufton by the end of the year.I'm pretty happy with all my teachers, although i have Ms Roberts for English.She is not a terrible teacher(not the best either), but i just don't like her and she doesn't like me.Also i'm getting the impression that futher maths is easier than general(not joking...i can't believe it either.).My timetable is horrible.I have no afternoons off, and only one morning off.Otherwise all free periods are 3+4, and on Wednesdays when everyone goes home I have to stick around for an hour and a half lunch and one legal studies class.There's a few new people, but i havnt socialised with any of them so group dynamics havn't changed at all.Everything else is just like last year.

The first weekend felt like a continuation of the summer holidays(i've decided to declar those holidays the best ever).My family went away to Phillip Island, and i didnt perticulary won't to go becasue I've been there like 10000000000 times.So instead i opted to have the house to myself for the weekend.My family left at about 4:30, after my Nan gave me a list of reasons why I shouldn't be, "the next Corey"(the cunt off the news for those who don't own any media resources), she's always paranoid about teenage partys, I dont why.So I sat down in my lounge room and listened to the sound of silence and my own thoughts for a good 20 minutes(sad i know, but you try having 100s of little cunt kids running around everywhere).I spent the rest of the night with movies, video games and unrestricted possibilites of what i could do with my computer(ie.Porn).The next day I enjoyed a long and un-interrupted sleep in.Then I played videos games until the first of the boys arrived, DD.Ten minutes later Eric arrived, and not long after Jim and Fitton turned up together.Marty turned up while i was showing fitton were to put his (new) bike.Max was the only missing.He had no idea where my house was, and followed a rough estimate i gave him which ended in us meeting him as we went to the square to buy alcohol.After that all there was left to do was get drunk.As we sat around playing and marveling at how good timespliters 2 was, while having are first can, Eric was 3 cans down and completely gone trying to play dota.Eventually we all got drunk with a few exceptions.A lot of stuff happened that i either can't remember or won't post about because its pretty regular stuff that happens at lads piss ups.Eric was so impressive that night.He drank the most out of anyone and quicker than everyone(porbably why he spent an hour sitting in my bathroom).He is a bigger party animal now than he was at that party when he fell asleep on a chaiR.The next day everyone left, and i had to clean up my house which looked like it was trashed(i can't believe 7 could make that much mess and drink that much alchohol), but in the end it took me 10 minutes to clean up.The only thing that got broken was my lamp, but i did that anyway so i can't complain.It only looked bad because everywhere you look there was several cans of grog.Video games and cricket ended that pretty fine weekend aside from the fact that everything in my house decided to break on me when i was all alone.

The main thought i've been pondering lately is "what its going to be like when i have my own house".Personally i can't wait.Sure it meens paying bills etc etc, but it'll be so worth it.No guests you don't, no annoying pets and NO KIDS(atleast for a little while, until you knock that special lady up).Getting away from the family will be great, and maybe even make me appreciate them more....MAYBE.

I've gotta go do more homework*cries in corner*..oh well i'll listen to some Beachc Boy first, and hopfully it'll give me the happiness to surive another long homework session(It's such a shame "God only Knows" is used at the end of every bloody hollywood romance movie).h

ps. I didn't use F**k once through out that post.Enjoy it now because it want happen again, that word expresses so much emotion for me.

Australia = BEYOND GODLIKE

Happy Australia day you all!!!And can I just say we got a fucking awesome country.I want to do a bit of traveling like everyone, but i don't think I'd ever call anywhere else home.My celebrations consisted of sleeping in, watching cricket, playing dota and then heading off for a night out with the guys.We went to the council fireworks again after not learning from last year.The actual fireworks were great, some people said they thought fireworks were lame, but quite frankly THEIR WRONG.Fireworks are a symbol of celebration, and when they're going off everyone is focused on them.So everyone RESPECT(i don't want to sound all you know, but some particular people weren't very respectful tonight, and i was quite irritated).Aside from the fireworks the night sucked.We played cricket, and some little kids joined us.Now i didn't mind at first, but when I saw all their parents fucking off i got quite annoyed.After that we kept working places a lot!!No drinking got done, which me, Eric and Jim weren't to pleased with(i had no grog which was GAY).We were going to go back to the school, but people were to tired(because of all the walking maybe!!!well thats why i was), had no alcohol, or just weren't interested in the idea.Eric wasn't happy with that, but i can't blame him.Tonight was one of our last nights to get drunk and yet we denied ourselves.On the train back home i had these 4 drunk guys talking with me, but they were really nice and invited me to go with them to the city.I declined, but later thought maybe i should've.Sure it wasn't the right or reasonable thing to do going in to the city with 4 complete strangers, but I'm so bored of staying in my comfort zone.Then i walked home from the station.As I cut through the school I got injected with depression, as the sad realisation came in to my mind that school is less than a week away.I really don't want to go back to that fucking place with all those fucking people(no offence to the people in there i love!!!).

Other invents that happened was a basketball day(not much basketballing but a fuckload of socializing), a soccer day which turned out quite fine and i had plenty of fun and Tommy G got a group to go see "Cloverfield".People complained afterwards, mainly because of the "shit ending", but I liked it, and i thought the ending was opened ended and quite emotional where as Fitton just wanted a fucking explosion.I think the only reason I liked it so much was that i went in thinking it was going to be very fucking crap, and so i was pleasantly surprised.In my last post i mention the Asian films showing on SBS lately.Well the 4th and final one was a huge disappointment.Not going to say anything except it involved eating human foetuses."Dumplings" is the movie i'm talking about.See it if you must, but Shaun says "STAY THE FUCK AWAY".

So we have 4 days left of freedom.I'm going to the movies one of those days, and I'm planing on having a solo trip somewhere(IE. the city because i always end up there on my solo trips).I haven't had a single solo trip these holidays(mainly cos i have great friends who are up for anything :D).I regret that a bit, but then again towards the end of holidays i get lots of regrets even if I've had a, "crankin"(quote ala Chopper) holidays.So much to do you know?Otherwise i need to revise chem and read more "Enduring Love"(which is fucking great, and "Kite Runner" is going to be even better),

I mentioned traveling before, and it just so happens the final details and plans for my families Europe trip are done.England is a definite because of a wedding we must attend(also the reason behind the holiday).Were going to England for a week.Originally it was going to be 2 weeks, but that would mean I'd get to go to England and England only because of exams.But my family cut that short and gave me the option of going to either Scotland,Ireland or France for the 2ND week.I choose France because Scotland doesn't appeal to me, and Ireland, although i do really want to go there, is just less appealing than France(also my parents said Paris so that was a little more exact helping the decision making process and I LOVE FRENCH MOVIES once i go to Korea my movieing experience will be complete).So yeah I'm really looking forward to it even though it will fuck my final exam preparation up a tad, but it'll be worth it because there is so much more to life than school, and if i work hard enough i should barely notice the difference.

That's GG for me.WOW it's 3 in the mourning!!!Time for PlayStation and whacking it.I'll chuck some pics in cos you know i love that.

Yuna2
I just been watching the 100% completeion ending on you tube, and i made me appreciate that game so much more.Sure not as good as FF10, but the story worked well, and it was still enjoyable.

It's been 19 days, so i thought i'd end this awkward silence.

Well it ahs been 19 days since I last posted.Why?I've been really busy, and I couldn't really be fucked.A lot happened in the 19 days, but i won't be re-capping, because FUCK THAT.Instead I'll make a list, because that's plenty easy, of some shit that happened.

  • New years turned out pretty fine, despite the very shit start.
  • I spent the 1st day of the year watching all 3 Shrek movies with my little sister(Children's animations=perfect hang over activity).The 1st Shrek movie got ruined by the 2nd and 3rd.
  • Went to the pool a couple times.
  • Got to hang out with Jack(Tom Webb's step brother and an top bloke), Jackson and his girlfriend Nicola(both are Tom Webb's friends.)
  • Eric is normal (sort of, many a rapping's have still happened) again after the WOW addiction finished.
  • My Dota addictions are worsening to the point were it's consuming most of my evenings.
  • A tiny bit of lads sport(Cricket and extreme up hill down hill CTF)
  • Pool trips, i can't recall how many.
  • A few city trips, again i can't recall how many.
  • Eric got drunk OmFg!!!And wanted to do it again!(he's a new man now, and it sure is good to have him back.
  • Still didn't haven't finished Dark Chronicle which was one of many goals these holidays.
  • India ended Australia 15 test winning streak for 240 gold(dota reference).Might i add CUNTS
  • Hewits in good form, but still won't win because Rodger Federer is GODLIKE(2nd dota reference.)
  • Finally got my school books.The 2 novels we have to read look great, but I'm tempted to read kite runner first.Legal studies book is so thick!I've got plenty of work ahead of me.
  • Dreading year 12.
  • still haven't got my L's....
  • Shadow Hearts 2 and Rogue Galaxy are the shit!!!
  • I'd much rather be playing dota than writing this.
  • I'm still crap but every so often i play a good game so there's some progress
  • Got a fine from Connex and received my infringement notice yesterday.I'm hoping for a successful appeal.
  • All my sister's cunt friends have gone away for the week, and it feels like whacking it.
  • I'm out of money, and have spent the past 3 days at home.
  • The recent Asian movies on sbs are great.I watched a triology without even realising until the last half of the final instilation!(days of being wild,in the mood for love and 2046).It was great, and i was amazed they had a triology that spanded over 10+ years(Note:10 years in real life, not story wise.1 of the many reason why i didn't realise it was a triology).If anyone knows were i can get those 3 movies then fucking speak up, i would be ever grateful.

There's probably more, but school holidays slow down my brain, and as a result i don't remember a lot.

In the past week or so me n DD have had some pretty lengthy walks to or from places.Conversation tended to end up on 2 topics, Year 12 and girls.So now I've been thinking about it a lot, mainly school though.As I already said I'm dreading year 12, and i was under the impression that it was because of increase school work and less fun time, but i think that's only half of it.The end of year 12 concerns me just as much.It's ganna be weird.We've(well the majority of our year level) have gone there every day for 6 years, and then all of a sudden it's ganna be over.Don't get me wrong i can't wait to finish, but i can't deny it going to be massively life change for everyone.Also it's going to be the last year we spend with each other.I'm sure certain people will keep in touch, but the truth is we won't see 90% of our year level ever again, and eventually we'll loose touch with everyone, i can't really say if that's a good or bad thing, but it disappoints me a bit.Take it as it comes i suppose, but still wouldn't it be nice to stay in these summer holidays forever?

In a recent post Jimmy says year 12 is "exaggerated greatly as the most impossible challenge we'll come to face."Aahhh that's comforting, thanks Jimmy.While looking for that quote i saw Jimmy did a "top 5 charater post", which I was going to do, but scraped the idea out of lazyness.I MAY do one in the next few days but you just never no.

GG.
