Random Change

For some random, strange, insane and awesome reason, Dad decided that we should renovate me and Michelle's room!

We are planning to seperate it down the middle with a shelf so i can have one side and she can have the other! We even went to IKEA on Saturday to look at furniture and stuff. It was so fun! I'm getting a bunk bed with a computer desk underneath, I want some floor cushions and a bean bag and a really fluffly round carpet! I won't have too much room to do much but I'll try my best.

I need a colour theme, to plan out what I want and to put what where. This is going to be so much fun! The only bad thing is getting ready to renovate which means moving EVERYTHING out to put more in! This is going to be insane but I'm so excited!

The 10 Rights to A Reader

Daniel Pennac wrote:
  1. The right not to read

  2. The right to skip

  3. The right not to finish the book

  4. The right to read it again

  5. The right to read anything

  6. The right to mistake a book for real life

  7. The right to read anywhere

  8. The right to dip in

  9. The right to read outloud

  10. The right to be silent


And with these ten rights comes one warning: “Don’t make fun of people who don’t read - or they never will.”

Lyrics!

LOL lyrics to the OLSH Rap:

Song: Being An OLSH Girl
Written By: Alana Gulden, Ashleigh Memmolo & Ashleigh Miller
Sung by: 8A408

Verse 1:
Being an OLSH Girl,
Come from the suburbs,
Respect the teachers.
Hmmmm yeah
(For the mothers)

I know there's some rules in this Catholic School,
Don't wanna stuff up, we know that's not cool.
Control your impulsivity.

Chorus:
Yeah!
We are OLSH,
We are proud!

Verse 2:
We come from all over,
But that's no excuse,
Our persistance is better then any of you's.

Chorus

Verse 3:
We gotta persist
To be our best,
Don't be impulsive that's being a pest

Chorus

Verse 4:
We gotta ask for help
To get an education,
Thats the aim,
Of this great nation

Chorus:
Yeah!
We are OLSH,
We are proud.

We are jolly,
Oh my golly!

Yeah,
We are OLSH,
We are proud.

PERSISTANCE!

An Active Weekend (for me it was)

Most people's active weekends would consist of various outdoor activities; maybe sports or the beach or visiting a friends place. Well this is MY definition of an active weekend:

Wake up at 10a.m.-12p.m.
Go to yum cha
Come home and play monopoly....AGAIN
Go watch the movie 21 (Which I rkn is pretty good)
Shout Easy Way
Come home
Go online
Eat dinner
Have shower
Watch TV
Go to sleep 11p.m.-1a.m.

THIS is active to me because the rest of the other weekends is like this:

Wake up 11a.m.-1p.m.
Eat breakfast in front of TV
Go online to do some random stuff
Have dinner
Have a shower
Watch TV
Go to sleep 11p.m.- 1a.m.

So yeah, I'm pretty happy and proud.lol. Most of these activities include Winnie, Ray and Michelle

Sammy's sick and when she's not working, she's at uni or out with friends; when she's not out shes at uni or work; whens shes not in uni, she is at work or out. If she is not out or working or at uni, she is in front of her Mac doing homework, MSN, facebook, youtubing, loud music and on the phone.

P.S. Random note: Jim Sturgess is so adorable!

New Addictions!

  1. Twilight is the top of my list
  2. Mars the manga and Asian show which has Vic Zhou in it from Meteor Garden (memories)
  3. The songs: Superhuman- Chris Brown ft. Keri Hilson, Zero-Alan Kuo and old school songs. OH and some Beatle Songs
  4. Fried Ice cream with strawberry topping -drool-
  5. Drawing A LOT more because I FOUND MY BOOK! I'll scan and put some up laters
  6. Classic stories and poems like Shakespear, Jane Austen and Edgar Allen Poe.
  7. Musicals, it turns oput to be a secret liking of mine. I love musicals especially: Grease, Across the Universe, Moulin Rouge and Phantom of the Opera. I like all the others EXCEPT HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL.
  8. Monopoly
  9. Asian Music, old ones, only about 20 of them =P

Random Day

Haven't written on this in ages! Not much has been going on though.

I woke up and helped Winnie with some computer and car stuff. I then had breakfast and watched Juck My Luck with Lindsey Lohan in it and the main male actor was pretty hot. lol. Then I spent most of my day doing homework (SHOCKER), youtubing, fanfiction and music.

Kiera called me up and said that Leila's friend Lexy came up from Woollongong for the weekend and a bunch of the girls were going to the Marist Show at 6:45 p.m. I got this news while in the middle of a game of Disney Monopoly with Win, Ray and Mich. I lost first -.- so Michelle drove me to the Marist Show at the Marist Hall.

I have to say the show was absolutely CRAP! Such a waste of $10!!!! The guys looked so bad with their "dancing" most of it was one step to the right and one step to the left, turn around and do it again!

The singing was good though. Jaime from OLSH sang awesomely as usual and JENNIFER SANG A WHOLE NEW WORLD WITH A DUDE AND HELD HANDS WITH HIM AT THE END. IT WAS SO CUTE!

I came home afterwards and played Tropical Island Monopoly with Ray, Mich and Will (Win was having a party at her place) OMFG I WON FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!!!!!! YAYYY!

And now I'm writing this and saying goodnight.
