C’era una volta una giovane e bella principessa che racchiudeva nel proprio cuore un immenso dolore, senza che nessuno né al Castello né fra i suoi conoscenti riuscisse ad accorgesse … o forse volesse accorgersene.

Lei infatti celava la sua infelicità amministrando le cose del proprio Regno, muta e solerte, vegliando sui suoi sudditi e sui loro bisogni senza curarsi d’altro, senza tradire mai un lamento. E nessuno si soffermava mai a leggere le ombre che offuscavano i suoi occhi.

E ogni notte, dopo aver compiuto le mansioni a lei spettanti, la fanciulla adorava recarsi finalmente libera, nella sua solitudine, verso la scogliera più alto del Regno per cercare conforto nel suo unico confidente: il Mare.

 Avvolta dalle tenebre, sedeva sulla roccia e confidava alle maree il male che quella spina conficcata nel punto più tenero del lato sinistro del suo petto le procurava, sussurrando a lui l’Amore dolcissimo, la passione, i respiri e gli ansiti che aveva condiviso col suo Principe, colui che le aveva insegnato l’amore per poche notti soltanto, per poi sparire nel nulla per sempre.

 E sotto l’argentea luce della luna, il mare cantava per lei dolcissime note di conforto, celando nei propri fondali il segreto di quel suo cuore sofferente.

 L’Amore arde come il Dolore. Il Dolore consuma come l’Amore. E questo la marea lo teneva chiuso nel suo animo.

Una sera fu data al castello una bellissima festa – l’ennesima – durante la quale tutti gli ospiti ballavano, ridevano e scherzavano senza mostrare alcun interesse se non per se stessi e il proprio divertimento, e la principessa stanca di recitare quel personaggio che non era, travolta da quell’atmosfera artificiale corse via.

 Sulla scogliera la marea come sempre cantava per lei, e i suoi occhi contemplando oltre la linea del mare, lì, quel punto indefinito dov’era il suo principe ribelle, a piedi nudi scese in spiaggia lentamente.

 E prendendo ad immergersi nelle gelide acque levando al cielo la lucida lama affilata di un coltello dall’impugnatura in oro, dono di una Fata Tuttofare alla sua nascita, con un solo gesto recise i suoi polsi lasciando il cristallo puro del mare tingersi di rosso rubino, inghiottendo il suo sangue  fra i segreti inenarrabili che solo i fondali custodiscono, senza esalare un solo soffio di sofferenza.

Con la speranza che un giorno, in un angolo qualsiasi della terra, quei flutti avrebbero riportato ancora una volta e per sempre il suo sangue sulla pelle del suo adorato Principe dagli occhi viola …che mai avrebbe dimenticato.

Okay, so this may sound weird coming from me of all people, but I’m thinking about waking up at least half an hour earlier each day. Haha, don’t worry, I haven’t lost my mind; I want to wake up earlier so I have a bit of time on the computer each morning. Hahaha. Like, this morning, I woke up and I went on the computer and I was tweeting (addicted, much?) and like, yeah, I think I want more time to do that kinda stuff in the morning cause I felt a little bit rushed and stuff, ya know? So yeah, it probably won’t happen since I struggle waking up at seven and I don’t think I’ll be able to manage half past six, but yeeeah.

Oh, and, ya know, I cut my hair short so I didn’t have to bother doing it every morning but I managed to spend at least ten minutes doing my hair this morning. I don’t even know how that works. But the point is, the wind went and ruined whatever it is I did with it. Note to self: use more hairspray tomorrow morning.

School was boring today. Like, extremely boring. Kinda in an amusing way I suppose, but yeah. Like, in Literature, I was doing some SAC or something and I had to review a book that I had read but I haven’t even read a book lately, syeah, I just sat around doing nothing at all, which was kinda funny I suppose.

I really wish I was in year ten at the moment though cause in Legal, Lisa and Maree were talking about how excited they are about their formal in a couple of weeks time and yeah, I want a formal! Oh, hahaha, we were in the library for some strange reason and this girl came in and she had the weirdest face; like, she had a massive head but a really small face, if that makes sense. Like, her eyes were all small and centered and hahaha, it was the weirdest thing ever. Trust Lisa to be all, “WHAT’S WRONG WITH THAT GIRL’S FACE?!” and stuff, hahaha.

English made me want to vomit today, purely because my teacher was wearing the ugliest outfit in the entire world. I was trying to take a photo of her to show you just how disgusting it was, but I failed. But yeah, it was so ugly.

Psychology was dull I think. I don’t even remember it that much at all apart frommm.. oh, no, I don’t remember anything.

Lunch was a bit amusing. I went and stole Bianka’s umbrella from her bag and I was trying to block the wind, but it was coming from every single direction so I couldn’t block it at all and it was humourously annoying. Then me, Sejla and Mirha played 21 questions and Sejla was thinking of some famous person and me and Mirha just failed at getting it and then Raymond walked past and asked two questions and then got it; it was Osama Bin Laden, but that’s not the point. How dare he just walk past and get it when me and Mirha were discussing it and asking all these questions!

Sociology and Media are so shit these days. I’m scared to even talk in those classes anymore. Whenever we do talk, he yells at us and tells us to shut up, but then he’ll ask a question and nobody will answer because they’re too scared to and then he yells at us for not answering. It’s mental.

Anyway, totally over school completely. It’s so boring and stupid and I have all these things this week and I’m just gonna fail them all, syeah, I don’t even care at all.

So, as you know, this stupid wisdom tooth of mine has been shitting me for the past few days. Well, I called the dentist today (okay, so mum did) and guess when I’m going? NEXT FUCKING TUESDAY! So yeah, pain for me for like, another week or so. How fucking shit is that? If my parents would have listened to me when I started complaining like, a couple of weeks ago, I wouldn’t be in this mess. Also, I have fucking private health cover; I should be getting in quick as! Bastards.

There was something else I wanted to talk about – something less complainy – but now I’m just focused on my hate for teeth, hahaha.

Anyway, I’m gonna try and use this pain to my advantage. On Wednesday, I’m planning on being all, “Oh, woe is me! This toothache is now giving me a migraine! I don’t think I can even make it out of my bedroom today!” hahahahahaha

I’m cool.

As you wereeee

d.(11/10/9)

I came to the realisation this morning that this week, the mornings have been very weird. It feels as if I’m doing something different than I usually would on a school day or something like that; it’s kinda odd. I was thinking that maybe I’m getting up later or something, but I seem to be getting out of the house and to school like normal, syeah, I dunno.

I don’t think I’ll ever learn not to trust my instincts about the weather, by the way. I thought it was going to be warm today and stuff so I didn’t wear a jumper and I froze to death for like, the entire day. Twas tragic.

Oh, btw, it’s kinda nice having short hair cause now I don’t really need to stress about my hair in the mornings.

Literature was pretty wastey today. I didn’t do any work whatsoever. Me and Dakota kinda did some stuff about the year book though, syeah, that was alright. The library ladies made their own page and for some reason they thought that they could just do their own sorta style; this is not on. Who do they think they are? Haha, srsly, they put all these angles on their photos and stuff but like, we’ve already stylised it so that everything is nice and straight and aligned and yeah. We’re gonna change it of course.

Legal was really funny today. We’re doing some sorta work or something and we need to use the laptops or whatever, so when the teacher asked who wanted to go get them, me and Maree put our hands up really fast cause we thought that everyone was gonna go get one each and we wanted to make sure that we got one. Instead though, we had to go and get all of them on this trolley type thing. To have the “privilege” of pushing the trolley, we had to have “training” and hahaha, it was so retardedly hilarious. I don’t see why we needed to go and get told how to push a trolley.

Anyway, we pushed it to class and avoided cobblestones (as we were taught to) and then we couldn’t really get it up the steps into the classroom, so me and Maree skipped back to the library to get someone to help us. Haha, when we got there the library lady who taught us how to push the trolley was like, “Is there a problem?” and then with the straightest face I was like, “It fell over.” Hahahahaha, omg, she like, died. Her face went white and she just didn’t move at all. Hahaha, if that wasn’t so funny I would have kept going with it but I couldn’t help but just crack up, hahaha, so hilarious.

We went back to the classroom (without anybody with us, btw) and then they had already managed to get the trolley inside. That whole thing took like, one whole period, so like, there really was no point starting any work; not that we were gonna do any work to begin with. Lisa and I just played on Twitter and tumblr and all that fun stuff.

When me and Maree took the laptops back there was a different library lady than the one that taught us how to push the trolley, so we waited around for the other one to get back so we could ask her if she was proud of us and if we were the best library monitors in the entire school. We are.

Oh, and, now whenever our class needs laptops, me and Maree have to go because we’re “trained officials” now.. hahahaha.

Guess what I did in English? I slept! Haha, like, for real. That’s pretty bad though cause right at the start she was saying how great my “about me” thing was and stuff, but gosh, I was so tired and bored, syeahhhh.

When I got home today, dad was like, “So, I went and got your laptop today and instead of just leaving it around I think you should just have it now.” Haha, so yay! Right now I’m typing this on my lovely Macbook and it’s amazing. It’s actually really confusing actually and I’m scared of touching anything in case I somehow stuff something up or break it or something, but yeeeah. It’s so pretty and lovely and yeeah, lovesit. I still need a name for it though, but yeah, one shall come to me eventually most likely.

Anyway, later tonight I’m gonna go and see Josh Thomas’ Variety Hour. I’m sooo excited. It’s gonna be great. And, I get to see him again tomorrow for my birthday, so that’ll be great.

Oh, for my birthday tomorrow, I totally think we should try and get like, a new record for most amount of views on my blog for one day. The current record issss.. haha, I can’t remember, but I think I worked it out the other day and to be satisfied, I want to have at least 150 views tomorrow. So yeah, I think you should go and tell all your friends to at least view my blog at least once and hopefully we’ll get the number that I want. Aww, it’d be cute if you guys would do that for me as like, a birthday present from the internet.

But yeah! Just link people to my blog page or you can even go and link people to your favourite posts or something fun like that. Twitter is your friend, btw, hahaha.

Oh, and, my teeth are hurting really bad. I reckon my wisdom teeth are coming through, which means I’ll have to get them out, which means I’ll need another operation, which means more pain. How fucking tragic is that?

As you were

Staying up until three in the morning watching Judge Judy is seriously the funnest thing. If I was a lesbian I would totally try and get with her; she’s so cool. Sadly though, she didn’t make me tired as was what I wanted her to do so that was a bit not that great. I really hate the first day back at school because I tell myself that I need to get up early and then I panic and think that I won’t get any sleep at all (which has happened in the past) and blah blah blah, I eventually spend the whole night awake worrying that I won’t sleep and then BAM! I’m tired in the morning.

It was a good kind of tired to begin with though. I was miiighty spaz, let me tell you. It was great because a lot of other people were also spaz, so we could all be one big happy spaz family.

I found it amusing that nobody had amazing holidays. Everyone just had “okay” or “alright” holidays. Usually everyone at least has one amazing story to tell, but nobody does this time around. I don’t know how to feel about that actually because I would often get jealous that people had really cool fun things happen to them, but now that there’s nothing it’s just boring.

It honestly feels like we didn’t leave school at all. It’s like the holidays never happened. Everyone’s just fallen back into routine I think. It’s weird.

Literature was amusing this morning. Nobody brought their books with them and I was all, “Ha! I am organised and I brought my book!” and I took it out and.. it was the wrong book. Hahaha, I looked like such a failure. But whatever, it was funny. The whole class was funny actually. I kept making my chair squeak so it sounded like I was farting (I am vaaaaiiirrr mature, promise) and then I kept whispering random words to people. And, we got asked what the “central themes of the story were” and I was like, “Dog biscuits!” even though it was about.. well, I don’t know what it was about, but it sure wasn’t dog biscuits. It’d be amazing if it was though.

Legal was also amusing. We have whiteboards in our classrooms (a-duh) and the teacher was writing on it and she made a mistake and instead of just rubbing it out she crossed it out and wrote the correct word above it as if it was just some piece of paper. Haha, it was so spaz; had me, Lisa and Maree pretty much in tears. I made water come out of Lisa’s nose because I still have that one last page at the back of my exercise book which I’ve had for over a term now. Haha, I refuse to actually write anything on that page ever. Not that I even have to because the teacher is just too nice to actually tell me off for not doing work. Oh yeah, that’s taking advantage for ya!

Totally failed at my diet halfway through Legal. Damn Mirha and her chocolate! Haha, I fail at self-control.

My English teacher is back; she didn’t die. Tragic. Haha, no, but, gosh, she’s a crazy head that one. She was talking for ten whole minutes and she was making no sense whatsoever and it turns out that she could have just said, “You have a SAC next Wednesday” and that would have been fine. Me and Melanie figured out that despite her Indian-ness, the teacher has an Irish accent. Except not really; we just fail at imitating Indian properly.

Oh, and everyone is totally in love with the invitations that I made for Alex’s birthday party. Makes me feel kinda special. People were like, “It was so obvious that you wrote that and it was cute” and yeah, yay me.

I can’t remember what happened in Psychology, except I remember talking about abortions a lot. I like saying the word “abortion” in my really gay voice, hahaha. Apparently whenever I use my really gay voice, Dakota feels like she’s being dragged along because I apparently drag out lots of words. Haha, drag.

Lunch was amusing. Sejla took my phone and she saw my background which is currently Jeffree Star and she was like, “She’s pretty” and she showed Fahreta and Mirha and stuff and I was like, “Um, that’d be a boy” and they were so amazed, hahaha. But gosh, Jeffree Star really is pretty.

Speaking of phones, Optus is the shittest thing ever. I’m gonna like, switch carriers I think and go on a plan. I really think I should get an iPhone, just because. I think I shall have to investigate plans for the iPhone around. Yep.

I felt all cool for doing my homework in Sociology today. Thank fuck that I did it because everyone that didn’t do it has to do it by tomorrow or else they fail. Ha, sucks to be them. I totally got away with not doing my Media homework too; all I did was tell him that I didn’t get it (I actually wrote a little note and signed it with kisses hahaha) and yeah, he gave me another copy and now I just have to do it by.. actually, he didn’t even tell me when it’s due. Hm. Oh well, yay for me and my cuteness.

Anyway, school is such a motherfucking drainer. I fell asleep on the bus I think and walking home was a nightmare. The second I got home I just went and slept and I woke up to find dinner on the table. Haha, but I felt too sick and gross (as you do after you wake up after a nap) to eat properly, and yeah.

I’m not doing any homework tonight. I’ve figured that leaving five questions out of fifteen for Psychology is good enough and yeah, fuck it. Plus, Monday night has become my TV night again what with Flash Forward and The Apprentice, so there’s no room for work.

I’m gonna start watching 30 Rock tonight. I’ve started downloading the first season and I’ve held off starting to watch it until I have at least three episodes downloaded because I hate waiting and stuff, syeah. That shall be good to watch before bed I think. Unless it’s really shit and in that case I will stab Jason for making it sound really amazing.

I’m really in a good mood, by the way. Like, it’s not a, “Yayyy gooood moooodddd yayayaya” type good mood; it’s more, content or something along those lines. But yeah. This strange good mood will be gone by tomorrow I reckon, so, I shall love it while I’ve got it.

Until tomorrow lovelies; as you were xx

Daylight Savings is such a bitch. Seriously, it totally threw me off this morning. It was almost seven this morning before I actually fell asleep, which makes me sound like a weirdo, but really, it was almost six in proper time. Ya know? Gosh, it’s so stupid. When I’m older, during DST I’m gonna still live my life in not DST and make everyone else just live with me being in a different time zone. Haha, that’d be wicked actually.

I’m actually hoping they just get rid of DST by the time I’m older. They should just have the same time all year. Isn’t it for like, farmers or something? Why can’t they just do things an hour earlier or different? Why do we all need to change our clocks just for them? Stupid.

The point is, now me and Jason are in different time zones again and that’s just confusing and dumb. I seriously hate that because with, say, Desperate Housewives, I always see it first and yeah. Also, I go to bed when it’s like, one in the morning for him cause it’s two in the morning for me and that’s just not fair for him, is it? No, it isn’t.

Anyway, today I’ve been a very productive person. I’m actually pretty proud of myself for getting all of my homework done. Well, all of my Sociology homework done at least. But c’mon, I hand-wrote seven pages worth of shit today! I deserve a medal or at least a hug from a strapping young lad.

For every other subject that I had homework for, sorry, but, fuck you. Haha, no, but, the only homework that was due tomorrow was Sociology so I plan on finishing that Psychology shit tomorrow night for Tuesday and yeah. I’m gonna pretend like I didn’t get the Media homework because Mr Milner gave us so much Sociology stuff so he can go die. Oh, and I think we got something for Legal, but, seriously, who’s gonna do that? hahaha

But behind this proud-ness, there’s a bit of a feeling of nerd-ness. I mean, not even Jack has done his homework and Jack is a school nerdo freakface, so like, yeah, hahahahaha.

Crap, I just realised that I actually have school tomorrow. That’s not very fun now is it kiddies? These holidays have gone super fast actually, but they’ve been pretty good. I kinda wasted the first week, or at least, I don’t remember doing anything then, but this week has been super.

I want more weeks where I start the week off by shopping for clothes that make me look like a happy person. I want more weeks where I dress all happy looking for a gay club thingo, then only to dress sorta dead looking two days later for a birthday party at a restaurant that’s named after a vampire. I want more weeks where I have picnics on the Yarra River surrounded my swans and ducks.

But ya know.

I think I’ve actually realised how much I love people these holidays. Even people I haven’t actually seen. Like, take Lisa for example. We’ve pretty much only had contact through Twitter these past couple of weeks, but it’s been awesome I reckon and yeah.

So yeah, if we’ve hung out these holidays or even just had random Twiter conversations, chances are I fucking love you and care about you lots. Feel special, bitchezz.

Anyway, I’m in the mood for a movie tonight. Either a really lame slasher film or a comedy. Hopefully the Foxtel Gods are good to me and are playing films from either of those genres on the movie network tonight.

If not, I’ll just have to watch Willy Wonka. Oh, and you can’t tell me that after going to my blog these last few days you haven’t felt like watching it, cause I know you have! ;D

As you werrrrre

I was supposed to wake up pretty early this morning and then go off to the hairdressers. Yeeeah, no. I woke up and I was like, “Fuck off world I have a headache!” so I cancelled my appointment and decided to get an extra hour of sleep. I ended up sleeping an extra two hours and was kinda late for my train, but yeah. I was then late for the other train as well, hahaha.

After eventually getting on a train, I was off to the cityyyy to go on a picnic. Yay for picnics!

The other day, Alex and I decided to have a picnic on this.. floaty thingy. Haha, it’s like, this thing that floats on the Yarra River and yeah.

We met up with Maree, Jane and Dakota and it was lovely seeing them. Maree had read my blog from last night and hahaha, yeah. Oh god, you have no idea how much I.. like.. it’s not that I regret doing anything, but, it’s close to that I think. Yeah, I dunno.

Anyway, we went to 7-Eleven for some reason.. oh, yes, Dakota wanted juice. Mango, I believe. Then we went to IGA and got some stuff for our picnic. I mistook a pack of stockings for chocolate; I am oh so smart. We didn’t get as much stuff as we usually do for some reason, but I didn’t mind cause I wasn’t hungry.

I felt kinda weird and sick a bit all day actually, which wasn’t very fun.

Our picnic was fun though! The floaty thingo was so awesome. We were moving! Hahaha, it was so cool. I didn’t even realise that we would move until I saw Maree’s head just bobbing up and down without her actually moving. It was great.

Dakota or Jane decided to throw food to the birds, and we ended up having like, all these birds around us. Like, not just seagulls; ducks and swans! It was mental and cause me and Maree hate birds, it wasn’t that great.

Speaking of not that great, I was disappointed with Alex’s cupcakes. I didn’t eat them because last time they were gross and I ended up just sticking them to trees..

BUT! I have a keen eye for design and I think she could have made them look nicer. Jusss sayin’!

Anyway, me and Dakota are the coolest. The floaty thingy was next to like this, ladder thing that I guess they used to use for climbing, but it was really old and looked dangerous and it didn’t even lead anywhere. That was a terrible explanation. The point is, me and Dakota hung onto that and the rest of them pushed off the wall so the floaty thing would float a bit away. Hahaha, if we fell we would have fallen right into the river. Tragic.

These people walked past and were like, “How much will you pay us to see if they’re ticklish?” hahahahahaha

I really enjoyed the floaty thingo. I remember model walking on there with Dimity a couple of years ago. Good times, good times.

Oh, Jane and Dakota almost died eating marshmellows. Well, they could have died if they didn’t spit them out. Who knew that eating nice things could kill you? Apparently, Alex knew considering she knew someone that died eating too many marshmellows.

Oh again, I just realised that Dakota eats so weirdly. Her and her.. too much flavouring.

Anyway, we eventually got bored of that so we went to the park and watched little children play around like the pedos we are. Sometimes, I really want kids just so I can look at them and proclaim to the world that they are cute as. Even the kid that looked like Frankenstein was cute.. aww!

It was really warm today and the sun totally drained our enery, so we left pretty early. But yeah, I was so tired and headachey and yeah, yeah. Haha, yeah.

Maree and Jane went home together as per usual and me and Alex and Dakota got on our train, which by the way was awesome cause we ended up missing heaps of stops. Yay us. Got to read the newspaper and have an old stalker of Alex’s come and sit next to us. Lovely.

Why do people insist on stalking other pe.. oh actually, ignore me; I’m the biggest stalker going.

When I got to Watergardens I realised that I needed to buy some foundation, so I went and got some (the lady thought it was really odd of me, but ya kn0w) and then I ended up missing my bus. The sun was so hot and disgusting, yet I decided to walk home. Holy fuck, it was tragic. I was dying so bad.

When I got close to my street this guy who lives in my street was walking in the opposite direction and he stopped me and talked to me LIKE HE ALWAYS FUCKING DOES OMG! And he just kept going on and on and I was obviously dying from heat stroke and ugh, so annoying. But he was like, “I expect to see you at my place in about 31 days!” and I was like, “Huh?” and he was like, “Halloween! Everyone knows that you’re the guy who does Halloween around here!” so that made me smile a bit.

Getting home was amazing though. It was so lovely to just sit and watch Judge Judy and be happy. Except you can’t be that happy cause Josh Thomas got kicked off Masterchef which is just stupid. I was sorta looking forward to watching that, but now that he’s gone I really don’t want to.

I thought you should know that I think Australia needs a show like Hey Hey on TV. Yep. Oh, haha, Dimity and I have plans for our amazing variety show.. we should totally go to a network to pitch it!

Blah blah blah, I’m pleased that they’re changing the name of that new gross Vegemite thing. But omg, the other names are pretty much just as bad. They’re so stupid my god.

Haha, this was supposed to be a news thing but you know what, I can’t be bothered and omg, bring on fucking October so I can destroy this ugly blog thing I have going right now. Hahaha, gosh.

I probably could have done with not going anywhere today cause I was so tired and stuff, but I’m glad I did because I had a wicked ass time at our floating picnic. Aww, I love us. We’re seriously the coolest people going.

Today I learned that you can actually seriously die from having too many marshmellows in your mouth. How mental.

I also learned that if you don’t want the flavouring, it’s probably wiser to brush it off instead of licking it off.. hahaha.

As you were.

E noi, soggetti alle maree del vivere, veniamo tirati e sospinti dal moto distante di corpi lontani, dei quali ignoriamo l’influenza, o l’esistenza.

I really hate being tricked, especially by that ugly ball of fire (or whatever) that we so kindly refer to as “the sun.” I woke up and it was freakin’ sunny and I assumed it was warm so I told my jumper to stay home rather than accompany me to school. Yeah, well, that was all fine and dandy for the first fifteen minutes but after that it was just cold as fuck. I was not amused.

Literature was interesting today. I wagged last lesson as you may recall so I was expecting wrath but she was like, “Jake, you can have two extra periods next term to finish off the story you’re writing” and I was like SCORE! Haha, best luck ever. Also, my story is fabulous I think. She lost the paper I started last Friday so I had to start again and I’m glad I did cause I ended up writing loads more and yeah. I’m really excited about getting two extra periods cause I sorta rushed the end and I wasn’t pleased about that, syeah.

Gotta love awkward after-fight silences. Haha, I was thinking, “Perhaps I should just avoid Nic altogether today” but then I realised that it’s just better to get over that “we just had a fight omg don’t even breathe near me” sorta feeling as soon as possible. Haha, the awkwardness was so fucking amusing now that I think about it. Just little polite smiles every now and again. I think it fixed though when I told him that I got two extra periods for my Literature thing instead of an afterschool. He called me a bitch and yeah

But thank god for Sophie and Ashley.. otherwise the tension would have been terrible.

Legal is seriously the most funniest class. We get treated like grade preps and it’s just so funny. The teacher let us watch a movie today and she came around and gave us all Freddo Frogs and stuff. Lisa and I were crying from laughter at one stage because the student teacher that we had was like, completely useless. She never does anything and just pretends like she’s helping with this smile on her face.. hahaha, one of those “you had to be there” moments I think.. but yeah

Hayley and I had to go to the English Office at lunch and tell them that we still wanted to do English Language next year and they were like, “Are you SURE about this?” and were acting all, “You shouldn’t do this subject!” but we still are

After that I went and chilled with Nic and his “other friends” at the theatrette. We were throwing nut shells (help! I’m in a nutshell!) at each other. I think he’s got pretty good aim cause he kept getting them inside my pocket. By the way, it’s really fun to kick him.. hahaha

I had spares after lunch cause my teacher has probably died now (yay) and I didn’t know what to do cause we finished early and by the time I caught the two buses to get home it would have just been pointless. So, I went to subschool to sign out and I bumped into Mr Milner and he walked me to the front of the school and we were just talkin’ about stuff and then he was like, “I’m gonna go see the year seven’s planting trees at the back of the oval” and I was like, “I’M COMING!” so off we went.. hahaha.

I didn’t end up going there though cause like, on the way, we stopped by Mr Cottrell’s class to say hello and they were just in there playing theatre games and he was like, “Jake! Come in and play!” so I did. There was no tables in the room cause they were getting “new” ones and yeah.

It just so happened to be Lisa, Maree and Natalie’s class so I had a heap of fun. Mr Cottrell is seriously the best teacher. First it’s pancakes and now theatre games. He’s amazing.

We were playing Space Jump and it was such a psycho thing to do cause we were all just so spaz. I suddenly got really hyper too so I was like, fully mental and then Nic came into the class cause he was helping move tables around I think and he was like.. yeah.. haha.

The point is, it was so fun. Also, our school is lame. We’re supposed to be getting new tables and chairs but all we got were tables and chairs from other rooms. It was so stupid and pointless. Mr Cottrell was disappointed. Aw.

Oh, and then Chris came into the room cause he had spares too and we played Space Jump again and we ended up being gay lovers. Haha, that was.. actually a whole lot of fun. I also did a lap dance for Natalie. She loved it.

Cause we were finishing early, we told the bus driver to come early to get us. He forgot as per fucking usual. So like, me and my sister called dad up and told him to get us and he said he’d be there in ten minutes. By the time he got there, we could have just caught the bus anyway. It was so stupid.

But, it wasn’t all bad cause I had heaps of fun waiting for him. I was still hyper and like, yeah, so I was dancing around and being fun and then I saw the principal and I realised that I hadn’t actually welcomed him to the school, so like, I went on over to him and I was like, “So, I’m very late and I’m very sorry, but WELCOME TO THE SCHOOL! ” and he was very pleased and he said that now he officially feels welcomed.. aww, he’s so cute

By the way, the weather was heaps warm after school so I was glad that I was jumperless.

But yes! Got home fifteen minutes earlier than usual. How amazing. But, like, yeah.. haha.

I’ve been dancing so much tonight. I feel sore actually hahaha

I really want to own like, some seriously sick ass art. I don’t really know why, but I think it’d be fun to be all, “Hey! You’re in my house! Whilst you’re here, check out this painting and this vase of mine!”

Or, if you want, “check out these copulating corpses!”

That dude is seriously cool as. I kinda half want to donate my body to him so I can say to my ghost buddies, “Hey! Come with me to his art gallery and check out my cut up body on display!”

So, like, I just half re-read this and it sounds like I had a really good and fun day today. That’s helpful considering I actually did.. hahaha. Oh, I’m so effen glad this term is finally over. I was over it bloody weeks ago now. I don’t think it has fully sunk it that I’m on holidays yet, but YAY FOR HOLIDAYS!

Today I learned that there’s around 2000 types of fruit in the world as opposed to the ten that I thought there were.. hahaha.

Oh, and by the way, today was the first last day of term that I’ve ever actually gone to I think

As you were.

I woke up this morning after having a decent amount of sleep and I really thought that by having sleep I’d be less temeramental but I was totally wrong about that. I’ve been moody and overdramatic and overemotional all day today and it’s been tragic.

I blame the weather.

Seriously, as if it decides to be stupid and sunny for half the day and stupid and rainy for the other half of the day. It doesn’t bode well with me and my moody self at all.

I didn’t do any work in Literature today, but that’s okay cause the teacher didn’t really ask us to do anything. It was actually a really funny class and I really like my teacher now; she has a personality and she’s great! She sent me to subschool to get something for her and I got stuck there cause they kept showing me pictures from Monday night and there were a few videos as well but we couldn’t get the sound to work for some reason. It was still amusing seeing myself all.. like that.. hahaha. Oh, and whilst I was out of the room, apparently my teacher just kept going on about how wonderful I am, which is nice.

Legal SAC today = major fail. Haha, seriously, I knew absolutely nothing at all. Luckily, I was able to sneak the revision sheet out of my bag and answer a few of the questions.. well, half-answer anyway. I don’t know of anyone (anyone cool, that is) that didn’t cheat actually. It was still a fun class even though we had “test conditions” or whatever. I think those conditions just make it more fun for me, Lisa, Maree and Mirha to muck around.

Cherry Cherry Boom Boom

Had a half sorta play fight with Nic at lunch which ended up with me storming off a few times, only to return for a hug.. haha, but ya know.

I couldn’t find my English class so I went to the library instead and chilled with a few peepz. I found out that my class was off watching Rabbit Proof Fence, so luckily I decided not to go. That movie is effen dull. But, the library wasn’t dull at all. I had such a fun time just going from group to group acting like a retard and stuff. Me and Gemma went for a walk.. oh, and so did me and Sam actually.

Bumped into a few teachers on our walk and apparently I’m very different in real life than when I’m on stage. Mm, could be cause on stage I’m acting? hahaha

It started to rain on the bus.. well, it was raining whilst I was on the bus.. yeah. It kinda suited the mood actually cause everyone was just really annoyed and upset and stuff. It was kinda weird and depressing actually. Nic shouldn’t be upset ever; it doesn’t suit his face.

Then I had to walk home in the fucking rain and it was terrible and it put me in the even worstester (yeeeeah) mood ever and yeah, I hated it. The rain was like, mean, cause it hurt and it was cold and blahhh.

Point is, I’ve felt all tired and drained since I got home and I don’t really like it that much at all.

Facebook warns members off using uSocial

So, I remember when there was something similar to this with Twitter and again I wonder why anyone would want to advertise like that.

Firstly, from what I remember with Twitter, the people that you “buy” actually have to be willing to accept your friend request or whatever, so they’re obviously going to be sorta familiar with your product already which just defeats the purpose completely. Cause, I know that I wouldn’t just accept some advertising account just cause it asked.. ya know?

And anyway, talk about desperate. Just go and buy some adspace and get people to see them without having to force yourself onto them. Really, if you can’t advertise your product like.. normally.. then you’ve probably got a shitty product anyway.

And also, why would you want to advertise on Facebook? It’s ugly.

Sooooo today was.. blah. It was just so dull, but fun at some times, but yeah, I dunno. I feel really tired but I don’t even know why and it’s just tragically annoying.

Today I learned that Jess didn’t know that you could use bus tickets on trains. Silly Jess.

I also learned that some people like to try and define people by four mood groups. That, my friends, is stupid; as if I can be defined by only four!

As you were

Can someone please explain to me how Spring has suddenly just decided to sneak up on me like this? I thought we had months and months of Winter left! It’s insane!

You know the drill; new month, new look. You may not have noticed but I have made it my thing to not include “total black” in the last couple of banners that I’ve had, just as a sort of challenge for myself. Well, this month, we’re stripping it all back and going basic-style and having an (almost) complete black blog. I’m also testing this little theory I have of mine, syeah, it all ties in.

But yes, I do thank the Comedy Theatre for lending its facade to me for last month – twas much appreciated.

Anyway, today was a really good day. I failed at sleeping, so I looked really tired.. actually, the remains of my makeup from last night made me look extra tired. But the point is, my hair looked hot today, partly due to Kathie’s amazing influence of course.

Walking into school today and having all these complete randoms stop me and tell me how amazing I was last night was seriously the best feeling in the entire world. It was amusing; all of the “tough boys” would go on about Dracula for ages and then quietly, as if they were almost ashamed to have enjoyed it, mention Frank.

As people pointed out today, I had the power to turn the whole audience gay, so yeah

I didn’t want to seem desperate this morning, so it was just a casual hello for Nic.. haha, I am so lame. But ya know, I had no time for.. stuff. Hahaha, I had to go and gossip about last night!

And boy, did I gossip. I think I told anyone that would stop and listen. Haha, nah, not really.. mostly just the cast members cause yeah. Oh, and Lisa of course! I simply had to tell her. Luckily I bumped into her on the way to assembly.

Speaking of assembly, it was some “special” one where they just gave us a piece of paper with the names of the subjects we chose for next year. Not even the classes that we got into; literally just the ones we chose. Like, um, we know which ones we chose.. we wrote them ourselves.

Media was.. actually, I barely spent any time actually in Media. Gemma and I just spent our time walking around the school “looking for places to film.” Haha, gosh, I love how we got away with that.

We were walking around the canteen area and we got stopped by Nic who had spares or something I believe. It was all, “Jake! I need your number!” and I was like, “Need?” and he was like, “NEED!”

hahaha.. shhh!

The point is, Gemma and I went to the library and we were talking to the library staff and they just kept going on about how amazing and fantastic I was. Oh, and they were looking at the pictures that got taken last night as well. They were watching it on some slideshow or something and I got there too late to see Dracula and I left too early to see the Rocky ones.. hahaha. But, I did see some nice photos of other people, so that was alright.. ya know.. hahaha

Oh, and, I saw my year seven and year eight Maths teacher who always made me cry and she actually smiled (expression!) and pat me on the back and kept going on about the fantastic job I did.

I have no idea what to say to people when they say that I did good, by the way. It’s like, “Thanks ” but that seems so.. stupid. Argh, I need to work on something interesting to say.

I found it.. kinda weird.. texting someone who was like, in the school and not really that far from where I was hanging out at recess, but ya know.

I had a SAC for Sociology which I had no clue about at all. That was fun. Milner (who was MIA in Media and for the first half of the SAC) came in halfway through and he was all moody and stupid and after the class finished everyone sorta went around at lunch to just say how much they hate him now.

Me included.

Seriously, he’s a moody little fucker these days and I’m seriously just not in the mood for it. I don’t care if he’s a teacher. I don’t want shitty people to be shitty around me. So yes, I pretty much loathe him and the whole class does as well and he can go get screwed for all I care.

I went and bitched about it to Nic and his friends afterwards cause yeah. Oh, I find it amusing how all his friends have started talking to me now too

Lisa and Maree snuck up behind me at one point during lunch and scared me so much, but then we gossiped so that was all good.

In Psychology we were doing our bi-polar assignment thing but me and Hayley seriously couldn’t be bothered. We just wanted to look up lyrics to TV show theme songs like we did yesterday! We haven’t even finished our thing either and we’re meant to be presenting on Thursday. Oh joy.

After school, my sister had to go and get two teeth taken out so I spent the majority of the afternoon just teasing her by eating things and chewing them really dramatically and stuff. And haha, dad would come in and I’d be annoying her and he’d be like, “What are you doing?” and I’d be like, “Oh, just talking to Deni about this.. isn’t that right Deni?” and she couldn’t answer cause she couldn’t talk so yeah, hahahaha

I’m seriously the best brother in the world.

I wrote boyfriend then by accident :|

Hm, now I feel like I have to get this thing str.. hahaha.. straight. I’m totally single. For.. now.. anyway.

Ha

ZOMG NEW SECTION!

Cops drag wagging students out of bed

Uh, okay? Sorry, but I think that’s completely over stepping the mark from the police’s perspective. If some police officer just showed up to my house and got me out of bed to go to school, do you think I’d actually be going? Are you insane? Get the fuck out of my room, out of my house and go focus on something more important you numpty.

And, since when do kids just take days off cause they feel like sleeping? What if someone is sick or something? Are they gonna come marching on in and say, “Oi, you! Get to school ya faker!”

I don’t think so, sonny jim.

It really doesn’t make any sense to me at all. It has nothing to do with the police. I mean, the last part sorta does, but that doesn’t really relate to the main point at all and it was just thrown in there as a dumb statistic to try and persuade people into believing the mostly false portrayal of teenagers – that we’re just fully sik rebelz.

Anyway, I’m glad I don’t live in Queensland cause I’d get sick of tellin’ the police to “get offah mah propatah!”

Today was a lovely day. It was just one giant ego stroke for me and everyone that knows me well enough knows that I quite enjoy it when people talk about how super cool and fabulous I am. Plus, totally pleased about getting Nic’s number as well. That was one of the steps in Lisa and my plan and I didn’t even have to do anything!

I learned today that people aren’t as evil and as judgmental as I thought they were, which is obviously a good thing.

I also learned that news travels bloody fast! I had some random person come up to me asking if I was the one who was “getting really close” with “that gay guy in year twelve.”

As you were.

So, I woke up today after having four hours of sleep. Damn nerves and damn boys. But, again, I wasn’t really tired or anything; just really hyper and energised somehow. My skin was awfully terrible and dry though so I avoided certain people as much as a could so that they wouldn’t be all, “Ew! Your skin is as dry as Egypt!”

I managed to get some moisturiser though, so yay for that. Yay for friends!

The whole day was pretty much spent being nervous and just yeah. I managed to go around the school and get like, cast members to do a little rehearsal type thing at lunch. I even managed to get the keys to the drama room too, so yay for me. There was like, hardly any rehearsing going on, but ya know, it was all in good fun.

I don’t remember doing any work at all today. I was just singing and dancing around in every class that I had, cause I’m cool and shit.

When I get all nervous I get all bitchy and stuff, so when I got home from school I was just yelling at everyone and then to calm myself I kept playing Super Smash Bros. but then I’d get off that and go and yell some more. It was a lovely couple of hours, really.

Us cast members had to be at the theatre at six and I was like, freaking out that we wouldn’t get there on time so I was like, bossing my family around and we ended up getting there waaaay before six. The point is though, there were.. other people.. that were early as well, so that was a total plus.

Every time people came the first thing they’d do is go and put their makeup on. I thought that was weird. Like, we had sooo much time before the thing was about to start. But ya know.

When I was doing my makeup for the opening/Dracula I was like, “Hm, I wonder where Alex is cause I have her ticket” and I messaged her and like, yeah, she was sorta perhaps running late-ish so I freaked out and it was so stressful cause like, Alex simply HAD to be there! Gosh!

I ended up leaving her ticket at the door, which was all fine and dandy I believe. I mean, she ended up front row, so go her!

The start of the show.. wait, moments before the start of the show were like, the worst. I felt sooooo sick and they kept blasting us with the smoke machine which smelled bad and it was just scary. Haha, which I suppose is good considering it’s a “horror” show.

I didn’t drop the coffin! Yay for me!

Oh, and I spotted Kathie in the audience too. That made me verryyy happy indeed

I think things went well throughout anyway. I mean, it was all rushy and scary and stuff, but it was pretty alright and fun.

It was so amusing watching the show on these little TVs. I thought that was quite helpful ya know. I mean, helpful to people that were actually paying proper attention

I thought us Dracula folk did a really good job. Like, backstage we were all, “OMG WHAT DO WE DOOOOO?!” but then we got on and we were very good. I enjoyed it a lot actually. It was even better having an audience cause like, duh.. haha, but like, there was sooo many sexual innuendos in that play so it was fun to play off the people’s reactions to that.

I thought it was very nice of Nic to escort me back to the dressing rooms and to undress me (haha, it isn’t as dirty as it sounds) and to take my makeup off for me. Like, why do I need to do anything myself these days when I can ju.. oh, ya know, my head just made that reeeal dirty.

Ya know, I was off stage for quite a while, but it never felt like that. I think it’s cause I was just constantly moving around or something, but yeah.

We had to wear our school uniforms for this edited version of Beat It and it was so weird being in uniform at like, night time and after I had been out of uniform for like, ages.

I quite liked Beat It; initially I hated it and wanted it to die, but it was kinda fun to do (y)

Then there was the interval and I managed to get outside and talk to Lisa, Maree, Kathie and Alex and it was all, yay! Apparently there was on stage flirting, but pfft, delusional!

So, I had all of interval and like, almost the whole second act to get my makeup and costumes on for Rocky Horror. Wanna know what I did? Due to nerves, I kept putting stuff off and I was doing my makeup when I probably should have been getting dressed up.. or, well, dressed down really. Haha, and I kept getting stopped with pep talks from random teachers and cast members, so that was like, good, but like, making me kinda late.

I was just about to go get dressed when I looked at the TV and then looked around and saw that the people that I thought were on stage were like, around me and that I had like, five minutes to get dressed and on stage.

Fuck man, that was like, so scary. I like, died. And, then I had to run up stairs to the stage in fucking heels. I got there JUST in time as well. Actually, I got there and had time for a few pep talks, but yeah

When it was time to go on I like, panicked and I couldn’t move so like, Brad and Janet and the band kept stalling until I was ready and yeah.

I killed it, bitchezz!

Haha, seriously, it was the funnest thing in the world. And when I threw off the cape thing nobody booed or anything; it was full cheers and it was so amazing and it makes me smile so much just thinking about it. I seriously loved it. It’s weird how aaaagesss of work and stress went into that four minute part, but it was bloody worth it.

I wish we had another night cause now I’m full confident with wearing.. not much.. in front of four hundred people, syeah.

After the show was alllll finished I like, went and got dressed and stuff before heading to the stage door (hahaha) where Alex made me sign all these things for her.. including this:

hahhahahahahahahaa

Oh, it was so amusing being visited at the stage door as an actor.

Aww, and Kathie was there too! Lovely Kathie! She went just to see me in a corset. Haha, actually, quite a few people did that.

I left Alex and Kathie to their own devices for a few minutes whilst I went and.. I guess made my “move.”

But before that, a few teachers came up to me and were like, “Oh, you were so amazing! You stole the show!” and like, “The rest of the show was just like a warm up you!” and it was very sweet of them to say that. Also, apparently, I’ve mastered the “art” of walking like a woman

Anyway, yes, well, I may have.. perhaps even accidentally.. kissed Nic. But that’s like.. haha, oh, there’s no way you can properly make a joke of that.

But I’m happy. Very happy.

I also find it amusing that like, my family was sorta in the same area and apparently picked up on the flirting. Mum gave me this “look” when we got home.. hahahaha

lovesit.

So the night was a big success. I don’t know why I was stressing out about it all day, but I was and yeah. It was seriously the funnest thing I’ve done in ages and I quite like the way the night ended as well.. haha, I’m so loving this. But like, as if I kiss people, seriously. And, as if I plan on kissing people again too.

Today I learned that I really fail at playing hard to get.. hahaha

As you were

PS: Sorry for the shittiness of this blog entry.. I can’t really think straight at the moment. Haha, geddit? Think.. straight.. and I kissed a boy? Ya know? hahaha

Milano – dal 14 settembre al 13 ottobre 2009
Michael Marten – Maree

Un ricercato lavoro su paesaggi prima e dopo l’arrivo dell’alta marea espresso nella forma di dittici e trittici e di immagini panoramiche accostate. Una profonda riflessione sulle conseguenze delle modificazioni ambientali dovute al surriscaldamento del pianeta, dal fondatore della storica agenzia fotografica specializzata Science Photo Library.

Le maree sono uno dei grandi fenomeni del pianeta, trasformano le nostre coste due volte al giorno, creano spettacolari effetti visivi. Una fotocamera posta tra il flusso e il riflusso della marea permette allo spettatore di osservare silmutaneamente due diversi momenti, due stati di natura. Nella mostra Maree, Michael Marten propone dei dittici, dei trittici ed alcune immagini panoramiche che raccontano le maree ed evocano una dimensione dinamica del paesaggio.

“Con questo lavoro ho voluto stimolare nello spettatore una percezione del paesaggio come il e risultato di un processo dinamico e non come immagine statica. Il progetto Sea Change mette pero’ anche in guardia rispetto al grave problema del surriscaldamento del pianeta e dell’innalzamento del livello dei mari. Le vedute in queste fotografie, nell’arco di un secolo potrebbero sparire per sempre”

My mind decided to play a trick on me this morning. I was in bed and I felt really refreshed and stuff and I thought to myself, “Fuck! I’ve slept in until six or something!” But no, I rolled over and looked at the clock and it was only 11:30. So, I went back to sleep until 2:30 because.. well, because I could, really.

The dreams I had today were really.. hm.. I can’t really think of a proper word. I wanna say that they were “heavy” but that doesn’t make much sense really. Well, it kinda does; they made me feel heavy. Is that making any sense at all? hahaha, probz not.

But yes, I had quite a few dreams. A lot of them revolved around the show next Monday. Haha, in one of them, the show was at the Comedy Theatre but the place had a makeover and now had two stages and stuff. I was talking to people in the audience and then the show started and I was like, “FUCK!” and I ran down these stairs and I tripped and fell and died. It was tragic.

This other one had me accidentally putting the corset on backwards or something, which resulted in my whole body being squashed and turned backwards to accomodate it.

Then there was a dream about cake. I liked the look of that cake.

I didn’t do anything at all today apart from dance around and play Super Smash Bros. and watch a lot of Disney Channel. Haha, seriously, I watch a lot of Disney Channel. I loved every second of it too

For a moment I considered doing some homework, but Maree convinced me to not do any. Not that I really needed too much convincing..

I watched Willy Wonka tonight. I’ve been wanting to watch that for so long now and I have it on DVD and stuff but I’ve been too lazy to put it on, so yay for it being on TV.

It made me so happy. I seriously adore that movie. I love how I can quote it word for word as well.

I wish Gene Wilder was my dad

Dakota made contact with me tonight as well, which added to my Willy Wonka induced happiness. She’s currently in London (SOOO JEALOUS!!!) and when she was writing she had Big Brother on the TV. That’s so weird to me!

But yes, I half-caught her up to speed on the goings on and yeah, it was nice.

Did you knowwww that there is 6 DAYS UNTIL ALICE COOPER?!

Big Brother is pre much dead to me now that Bea’s gone. I can’t even begin to see how they’re going to fill their daily shows now. What a dumb move by the stupid British public. And, as if she gets booed as well!

Not happy Jan!

Happy Caturday!

I like cats that remind me of me…

I wish my cat would climb into that Darth Vader helmet I have..

Aww, I like when cats are all.. aww!

Time went fast today. So much so that I forgot to really eat anything, but ya know, who cares about food when you can be having a nice, relaxing day doing nothing? Not me! Not meeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Haha, but chyeah, ya know.. I feel like just saying “ya know” over and over again. But ya know, I won’t.. ya know.

Today I learned that you shouldn’t overthink things when it comes to Mario games.

I also learned that after all these years, Willy Wonka can still make me lol vaaair muchly. Which is nice.

“I did the end pieces with the little tassels.”

hahahahahahahaha, lovesit.

As you were
