au revoir

This will (most likely) be my last blog on blog spot.
I am now - beginning tomorrow - relocating to Tumblr.
http://whenhopeisnonexistent.tumblr.com/


Meggy T, out!
Forever.

365 days later.

Shall we take a trip down memory?
My first ever blog.
On the 1st of January 2010
http://acredittosociety.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-year-new-me.html


This is an excerpt from my New Years blog.



New Years Resolutions.

Social - Meet 20 new people.
Academic - Receive a Subject award.
Cultural - See at least 2 shows
Sporting - Participate in as much sport as possible
Nutritional - Eat Tomato's

What will 2011 hold?
oh, who knows? I guess we will just have to wait and see.
One thing I do know for sure is.
I will be a student leader.




So now let's begin with basically a follow up of how this year went.



Social - I met lots of people this year, it was fun. What more can I say. I made some great new friends and several are now flying off to Italy... :/



Academic - I did in fact receive a Subject award in the Field of Film, Television & New Media. AND I in fact did 1 better on awards night, I receive 2 special awards :) Public Speaking and The Leadership and Participation Award.



Okay a little side note before I go on. Totes not boasting, just recalling.



Cultural - I saw maaaany shows. Saw Radiance and King Lear with School Drama. Saw two movies at a Film Festival at GOMA with School FTNM. Also saw Fame and Mumma Mia with Mum and some of her side of the Fam. Fame was ah-mazing I really loved it. Best show of 2010. And I think that's everything I've seen.

OH! I also went to the Go between bridge Concert and the Powderfinger Concert. Both were amazing also.



Sporting - I totally lacked this year. Although I got a Gym membership - have hardly used it.

I didn't do Cross country and Volleyball hardly happened this year (not my fault though) Netball was good and we succeeded in Futsal... I guess it was a good year in sport... but, could of been better I guess.

Nutritional - I ATE TOMATOS - we was a grand occasion. Although I'm not yet at the stage to eat a salad. I like tomato in like wraps and subs but I cant yet eat it straight - (slash/ haven't tried).

Hmmm.... I was a bright young cookie at the beginning of this year - My prediction for 2011 has already come true. School leadership, and not just leadership, but Captaincy. Vair stoked.

Now, Off to Declan's house to begin the New Year celebrations.
Stay safe and drink responsibly my darling cherubs.



Meggy T, out!

Catch Up.

SOOOOOO, it's holidays - and I'm enjoying a good ol fashion chill. I'll have a more exciting holiday next year I think. The end of this year shall be good for a wind down.

I'm currently obsessed with the OC so I spend most of my free time watching it - Sorry Blogspot.

I'm pretty happy at the moment - it's good to shop lots, even if the presents aren't for me :(

Life. Is. Good.

Oh my Jesus

I have not blogged in foreverrr, and I have lost track of which days I'm up to - but I'm pretty certain I have finished.
So Ill do all that's left.


A photo of something that means a lot to you.



Happiness. Happiness. Happiness.


I know I have said this a million times, but it means the world to me.

I'm filled with Happiness through the company of my friends and family.
I often talk about being totally and utterly blissful, but sometimes I question whether I am truly happy. If I'm having a down day, I'll just step back from all the stresses and problems of reality, and take a look at what I have to be grateful for. I have an amazing Family who are extremely supportive in everything I do. Friends that have the ability to make all my problems and worries just melt away. I have everything I could ever want and need from life. I'm a teenager, and there's nothing more I need. Happiness.



I found this quote - and I thought it was insanely true.








Who are you?

Hi My name Is Megan.
I'm a student eagerly awaiting the commencement of my Senior Year.
I have an amazing group of amazing friends.
I have Red hair, and teamed with my Green eyes, I really bring the Christmas to this time of year.
I work at Subway on Oxford street, and earn $10 something an hour.
I feel like I'm currently enjoying my life, I have stopped blogging recently, but on the turn of the year I'll be making the switch to Tumblr - to continue my blogging adventures.

I'm the 2011 School Captain. I'm Super Stoked.


A photo of somewhere you want to go.

What kind of person attracts you?

Adam Brody/Seth Cohen.

He is so absolutely adorable.

His quirkiness, his flaws, his humor, his ravishing good looks.

He is the man for me.

In this past month, what have you learned?


I haven't learnt much - purely because I haven't been terribly strict with this days thing.

But I guess looking back on it - I have gained a greater sense of happiness. I rarely have to step back from my life and remember what I have. It's now just always sub-consciously in my mind.





Something you could never get tired of doing.

Watching the OC.

Well - I could definitely easily get tired of it. But not until I finish the Series. I'm currently nearly finished season 2 - and I'm stoked for Season 3.

I'm in love with this show, but it's a shame there aren't more seasons :(

A photograph of yourself today + three good things that have happened in the past 30 days.


Errrm, Don't really feel like taking a picture right now. Because I am currently in My Pyjamas preparing to slumber. SO NO PHOTO. But here is one that I took a few weeks ago. I liked it - but not enough for facebook, It's a little weird of me I think - pretty-ish but weird.
I have curly hair :S





Okay - three good things.
1. I completed year 11 with flying colours.
2. I Had a wonderful (early) Christmas Lunch with my family.
3. AND I also had an amazing birthday (which I'm still waiting on presents for) and a great end of year partay.

Day 21, 22 & 23.

A photo of something that makes you happy.


Friends.
My friends, the show friends. Just friends.


My friends mean the world to me, and, I know a lot of people say this, but I would be completely lost without them.


The Show. This show has shaped me as a person I believe. It gives me hope for the future, and shows that even though things may be crappy, you can always have a coffee with your best friends. This show bring my friends together, it makes us happy. We feel connected with the characters as if they were our best friends too. This show always makes me smile. Pure Genius

This Picture makes me smile.







A letter to someone who has hurt you recently.

No-one has hurt me. I'm lucky enough to have an amazing group of friends that would never wish something bad upon me. They're so great, so I really have no-one to right a letter to.

I sat here for a while trying to think of someone, and in doing so, it has made me so pleased with my life. I often have my ups and downs, and at the moment I was in a bit of a down area - but for no reason. Now that I have actually stopped and thought about myself and the people around me. I am so happy.

15 facts about you.

My name Is Megan.

My middle name is Jane.

My birthday is the 19th of November.

I have just turned 16 and have obtained my learner license.

I have red hair and freckles.

I aspire to have a Carree in the film industry.

I'm obsessed with New York, London and Paris.

I'm open to love.

I have an obsession with owls and birds.

I straighten my Hair.

I'm often self-conscious.

I'm superficial and Materialistic.

I secretly love my Smile and Eyes.

I always want to win.

Meggy T, out!

Day 17, 18, 19 & 20

I haven't blogged in a while - so this is a 4 day blog.



How you hope your future will be like.

My future will be filled with happiness.
I will be successful in whatever career I pursue.
I will have a loving family and a beautiful home.
These are the things that would make me happy.

I have written a more in depth blogs about this so here are the links.
http://acredittosociety.blogspot.com/2010/10/day-2.html
http://acredittosociety.blogspot.com/2010/10/day-9.html

5 things that irritate you about opposite/same sex.

Not that many things annoy me about guys. I can see how much more annoying girls are than them. We whine and confuse them. It's all a terrible situation.

Although, I have recently experienced the whole confusion thing. But this time is was the guy confusing the girl. It was all a big mess - but we came out of it well - we could of come out better, but the way we did is good enough.

Love sucks, it really does. So I'm going to stop it from controlling my life, gaarrgh. It's irritating, I just can't be bothered any more.

Your reflection in the mirror.

Sup Ranga,

Okay, all jokes aside, you have turned into a beautiful young woman. There was a bit of a rough patch a while back where I wasn't sure it you were going to come out of it well. But thankfully, you did.

Over the past few years I have seen you transform into the lady you are today. You have gone through many different trends, but now I think you have found become comfortable in your own skin - not comfortable enough to be naked, but comfortable enough to wear anything.

Your friends have shaped you into who you are, and for that you should be ever grateful. They are a lovely bunch of boys and girls, and each one of them should be aware of how greatly they are adored and cherished.

Please continue with your transformation, but you are almost done. You're on the right track and can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Sincerely,

Your Reflection.

The meaning behind your blog name.

My Blog name - well, it's a phrase I use a lot. I often tell people they're a credit to society. So I guess it was just something that was in my head at the time, and I thought it sounded nifty. I think over the past year of me having this blog, I have seen myself grow, and I would now like to refer to myself as a credit to society.

Not meaning to sound cocky, but I feel satisfied with my changes.

Day 16.

Your view on homosexuality.

Totes for it. I'm not myself, but i the upper most respect for homosexuals.
I admire their courage to be comfortable in their own skin etc.

I have always wanted a gay friend, to go shopping with. You know - do all the stereotypical things.

I think that homosexuals are just like anyone else, they should be allowed to love just like the rest of us. And I think they should be allowed to celebrate the same rights of passage, such as Marriage.

I don't think differently of homosexuals. They are just like everyone else.












Meggy T, out!

Day 15.

Something you don’t leave the house without.

I never leave the house without my phone.
I also never leave the house without mascara on.
And I rarely, hardly ever, leave the house without my hair straightened.

Day 12, 13 & 14.

I don't remember what day I'm meant to be up to - so I'll just do these three and I think that's right.


Your current relationship, if single discuss how single life is.

garrr..... Currently I'm single, and to tell you the truth, I hate it. It's so boring and especially because everyone around me is in a relationship, it all just sort of sucks. And for the exception that's not in a relationship - they go on dates with different people every week. Being single sucks sooo much. Sometimes all I want is just that little bit of comfort with someone, I just want to be able to walk up to a guy and hug him. Hug him until all my problems just melt away and I can enjoy myself. But unfortunately, I have been blessed with a little attribute that seems to stand in the way of such an even occurring.... My Hair.

Although, I have recently seem the troubles in relationships. I have learnt from my friends mistakes, so I don't have to make them. oh goodness I need affection....

Your views on drugs and alcohol

My Views. Not really against either of them. I believe I have blogged about this before. But yeah. There's a certain point you can reach before its unacceptable in my books.

I have friends that do weed and I'm okay with it. Because it doesn't change who they are. They are not addicted and its just for fun. Although I don't think I would do it anytime soon. Other drugs however, I'm against. Drugs that have long term affects I don't like. At All.

Alcohol. If you know any of my friends, you would know that they are not against alcohol at all. Me? I'm not against it either, although I avoid drinking excessive amounts. I don't want to get drunk, any time in the coming weeks. I may at some point next year, due to the release of year 12 stress, but at this stage, I'm happy being the helper. And I must say, I play a pretty great drunk person... Fake it till ya make it.

A TV show you’re currently addicted to.

3 Words. Toddlers and Tiaras.

Oh my Jesus. The most addictive show. Mother and I watch endless episodes and we somehow just can't get enough of the pageant world.

If you don't know what it is, look it up.

Another show would have to be One Tree Hill. It's quite a nice show, however I have become less obsessed due to the fact that I have seen every episode and each week I'm waiting for a new one to come out.

Thanks to Ant Man... I'm nearly obsessed with The OC... just a few more eps through these holidays and I'll get there.

Meggy T, out!

Past.

When I was younger, I was bullied



I told teachers, but they never did anything about it. I was picked on for being a little different, for having red hair.
Before summer heights high was made, I was being called a ranga.

There were a few boys in my grade looking through a nat geo book in our library. They found a page on Orangutan's, they realised the comparison, and began to refer to me as an Orangutan. Later shortening it to Ranga.

I told teachers, but they never changed anything. My teacher got me to start writing in a book when ever they did something to me. I did this, but my teacher never acted on it. The boys never changed.

I had to learn to deal with it all myself, to accept that I was different, and just go along with the jokes people made.

Now, I'm able to make jokes about myself. I sometimes wonder that if the teachers did do something, and the jokes stopped Whether i would think of myself differently, Whether i would still hate the fact that I was different. Whether, when people made jokes it would affect me lots.

I'm glad things were handled in the way they were, it might of sucked at the time, but now i realise how beautiful my hair really is. People dye their hair to be like mine, i not accept myself :)

I love being called a ranga, although, I hate it when people say my hair is orange. IT'S CUSSING RED!! It confuses me when people are so stupid, and it actually really offends me and makes me consider dying my hair. But, because now i like having red hair, if i were to dye my hair, I would dye it a different red.

I HATE when people say its orange, It makes me want to throw sand in their eyes, and continue to do so until they can see that my hair is red!!....







Ranga, out!

Day 10 & 11.

A photo of our favorite place to eat.

My Favourite place to eat doesn't have a picture.
I'm not sure where it is, I think it would have to be Oberois, our family friends Restaurant.
It's my favourite because it's really good, and we get it for free :)

Also, It's Indian, in case you were wondering.


What’s in your backpack?

Backpack - Just school books that I have brought home. Because I HAVE FINISHED SCHOOL!!!..... for the year.

Handbag - Wallet, Lip balm, Phone, Band aids, iPod, Gameboy... Yeah, it's a pretty sweet collection...






Meggy T, out!!

Day 9.

A photo of the last cd you purchased.



The last CD I purchased is the best one I ever have.



Tangalooma by The John Steel Singers.

TLE.

Dearest Big Tez -

You mean an amazing amount to me. We have become quite close in the recent months, and I feel that I must tell you how much I am enjoying it.
Your such a crazy person, and your bird phobia highly amuses me. You have such a passion and love for life, which has recently been passed onto me.
I love how you are whilst you have been dating Sushi Breath; not that I didn't love you before - but know you just blow me out of the water. He has made you so happy, and although he may occupy most of your free time, it's okay. because every minute you spend together, you both are become such more amazing people.

You did somethings that we no longer speak of, but I must congratulate you on how you have been able to redeem yourself and move past whatever may have happened in your past. Your experiences have only made you a stronger person.

Your interest in psychology, the mind and the way of living, makes me jealous. Your interest in all the crazy things you love - the whole Point of power is in the present moment thing, is so interesting - and oh so true.

I love your love for didge. And your relationship with your brothers makes me extremely jealous.


So I was lying in bed, trying to sleep, then for some reason I had the strange urge to check my facebook - as you do - and whilst on facebook, I found the need to write this blog. And tell you how much I appreciate you as a friend. Your such an amazing, beautiful, passionate person. And I love you for all the unique qualities you portray.


Signed,

The Easter Bunny.

Day 8.

A song to match your mood.

Every song usually matches my mood. I can listen to punk - which always boosts whatever mood I'm in. Or I can listen to more layed back stuff which then influences my mood further.

Because depending on what mood I'm in - I get different things out of the song. Like when I listen to punk, it can only make me happier, or it can help me vent if I'm angry.

It all depends on what mood i was already in, and every song compliments the mood.


But I Am Always In the mood for some Rise Against. Most usually Behind Closed Doors.

This song kind of means the world to me. It was shown to me by a dear friend, Big Tez, and once i heard it I fell in love with it automatically. Ever since that day she showed me, I have always thought of her when ever I hear it. Another of "Our" Songs is, Make you Smile by Plus 44. We have a way that we sing it and everything.

I don't know, there is something about these two songs that reminds me of a different time. When we were all stress free and enjoying ourselves. Now, people fight and we have problems with school, it's all a bit much to deal with. So when ever I listen to either of these songs, they get me in the mood for anything.

And that's why i have thought of them now. Because I have just finished all school work and I'm ready for 2 months of relaxation. These songs remind me of the time when that was my life all year round. One day again that will be how I live my life - easy going and stress free.



Meggy T, out!

Day 7.

Your dream wedding.


Ahhhh My dream Wedding.
Going to be so beautiful, I will most likely have the ceremony outside I think, in the late afternoon - so photos can be taken with full sunlight and also with the sun setting. The Reception will take place somewhere that has brick walls. I will create a very Italian feel with vines etc.

My dress will be Phenomenal - I will starve myself from my engagement day till the wedding day so I look super amazing. Again with the dress - It shall me just off white - i think. With some sort of amazing quality. It's hard to explain but I can picture my dream dress....

The Man - He will be the love of my life; obviously. we would have been together for 2 years before he proposed and then the wedding will take place in spring. with at least 1 year to plan the wedding. There shall be 1-2 years after the wedding before I fall pregnant. So after about 5-6 years of meeting the guy, I should have a baby.

The Proposal - It will hopefully be on valentines day, or my birthday or something. And basically, he will fill a room with candles, and rose petals etc. and he will give me a jewellery box as a present. Then inside the box with be a big beautiful Ring. I would have the box open, then when I close it i will see him down on one knee asking for My hand in marriage.


Too much detail? alright I'll stop now



Meggy T, out!

Day 6.

A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.


I would love to have a monkey, soooo much.

I also love the pet I already have - Lula

Meggy T, out!

Day 5.

How important you think education is?


I think education is very important. A certain level in school should be reached, and that's year 10. Without that, you're nothing I think.... You need to know basic maths and English to somewhat succeed. An employer wont hire someone under a yr 10 level. I think highly of people who continue on after school, this means that they want to make something of their lives, and be very successful in an educated position. Like me.

I have friend that have dropped out of school. One in yr 11 to work, and study music. This is understandable, why waste your time learning things you don't have to to follow your dream. I stay in school because I want to work in film. I don't yet know everything I can, though I study film and every lesson I learn something new.

I like school, I find it fun, and challenging at times.

I value my education - not everyone gets the chance for that.

Day 4.

Your favorite photograph of your best friend.


Numerous

19th November

IT'S MY BIRFDAY TODAY. YAYERRR

Thanks to everyone for all the lovely messages, texts, calls and presents.
I have had a wonderful day - However, there was one massive downside.

THE YR 12's HAVE LEFT ME!!

Some people need to realise how cruel it is to leave someone, on they birthday!
This makes me exceptionally upset, because I don't want to cry on my birthday, so I have to try and not cry, and then I feel bad for not crying because it's like an insult to the people leaving. One big feel bad cycle.

Birthday I must say was pretty average. Had 2 lovely cakes however. But like the Bag balanced out the good and it ended up feeling like a normal Day. At some point I honestly forgot, until another person would remind me.

I loved how many people knew though. That made me feel exceptional.

Thank You All!!!

And best of luck to the Yr 12's, hope you have an amazing night.

XHDGJ (L)

Day 3.

Your idea of the perfect first date.

Perfect First date

- Well for starters with someone I really quite enjoy.
I would love to go to like dinner and movies, or Movies and chill.
Mostly on Oxford street. On a first date I think its best to go to the movies.
Avoids having to MAKE conversation and it's a great way to slowly get to know someone.
First date Movie date = Sharing popcorn, The whole, yawn - arm around girl act. Holding hands, etc.

This would be lovely.

301.

OH MY GOD!!!

I just realised that my last post - which was a useless one, WAS MY 300TH!!!

What an amazing accomplishment, I'm so pleased. And while everyone may be moving to Tumblr, I plan on staying true to Blog Spot. At least until my 600th

So here's the update. In 1 and a half Hours.... I TURN 16!!!

No biggy, just means I'm allowed to drive :D ...... and do other things.......

Not saying I will, Just that I'm now allowed to :)

SO yeah, totally stoked for the morning, so stoked in fact that Now I'm to sleep so the morning comes sooner.

However, Tomorrow also happens to be the yr 12's last day. This is very very depressing :(

I will miss them all so much. Tomorrow, I'll write a blog about it.





Meggy T, out!

Day 2.

Your favorite movie


Refer to Day 24
Here's a Link

http://acredittosociety.blogspot.com/2010/11/day-24.html

catch up.

I feel like we haven't spoken in ages. So I'll catch you up on my recent doings...

So, on Thursday last week at school, Hekla took some impromptu Amazing photos of me. I don't mean to brag, but they look pretty great

Here is a selection of my favourites.

Also, last Friday night, Jennie and I had our annual joint birthday party. This year we were at Jennie's. it was a really great night, and it's all people have been talking about this week; the good and bad....
Here are a couple of photos from the night

A Photo of Hekla and Xanthe and Myself and a Photo of Jennie and Myself along with her father, Matt Byrnes (A.K.A. FRED BYRNES, FRED BYYYRNES)

And yeah, it's my birthday on Friday and I'm really looking forward to it. Only downside is that it's the Year 12's last day. This is a sad and sollom occasion :( :(

Day 1.

Your Favourite Song


My favourite song at the moment is Nowhere Near My Heart by Kori Pop
It has an awesome video.
Here is is.




Now I feel bad for singling out one song. So I would also like to mention the fact that recently I have been listening to lots and lots and lots of Rise Against. Through this study period it is important that I retain some sanity - - Through Music :)

I would also like to acknowledge The John Steel Singers, I have now seen them twice in concert, and both times they were extremely amazing.
Now, I have a friend, and His name is Charley - He is my Co-Captain - and His cousin is the front man of this Band. I love them so much. There Music is so amazing, they should be so much more famous than they are. But they are definitely making their way there... and fast!
They were an opening band for Powderfinger when i saw them last - alongside JET.
The first time I saw them was at the Go Between Bridge Concert, and there were a collection of amazing band there which was awesome!



So That is all for this blog. Watch the Video, Like the song, Download it/but it off iTunes (but I don't know if it's even there) and Be awesome.

Also Buy some of the JSS because they deserve to be heard, seriously. Utterly Amazing!!

So Sorry that I have been absent recently, been completing all my school work, but now I'm back. For Good. Coming up to holidays you should expect many blogs.... maybe...

I will not do the last two days that I have missed, and do a few more blogs that I have been thinking up :)

Day 25, 26, 27 & 28

Sorry, I have been absent for a while. But now I'm back and ill catch up the days I missed.

Someone who fascinates you and why

I don't have a someone, I have a someones...

Xanthe Peters and Hekla Egilsdottir. They are purely amazing. I love everything about the two of them. There creativity just bursts out and consumes me. I love it, I love being around them, they fill me with a weird ranga icelandic happiness.

They fascinate me, they are such free spirits, I love it. They don't care what people think of them and they just live there life however they want. And for this, I love them.

what kind of person attracts you

This is going to be a fun one...

When I think attraction, I think appearance first. And then I may begin to like someone I'm attracted to because they have an amazing personality.

So, I'm attracted to someone who has good fashion sense and isn't a bogan
Someone who can be somewhat "punk-ish" - or like that type of music
Someone who It tall and strong
Someone who has an amazing smile
Someone who has dark Hair
Someone who is clean cut - although as I'm now getting older, thus the males around me, I quite like facial stubble, but not bum fluff facial hair

I have someone pictured in my mind who I find attractive, but i can't seem to find any images similar to portray these attributes.

biggest problem you have had

When I suffered from slight depression. It was a hard time in my life. Although writing about it helped me to re-asses my life. And now I can speak a bit more openly about it, but still not to my close friends....

something that you miss

I miss not having to do school work outside school hours.

But I'm pretty satisfied with my life at the moment. One thing could completely improve it, but I'm not holding my breath and I'm still continuing to enjoy myself :)

Day 24.

Your favourite movie and what it's about


I have tooo many, so I'll tell you them all.


Also, I can't be bothered saying what its about, so ill say why I like it

The Notebook
- It's hard to explain why I like this movie, it's basically a movie that every girl loves. It's so sweet and so romantic, and if you don't like it you basically don't have a heart. It gives me a bit of hope for love. The fact that Noah can love so much, it's lovely.

Nowhere Boy
- The story of John Lennon + Aaron Johnson.... I rest my case.

Angus Thongs & Perfect Snogging
- Just a great movie. It's exactly what school is like. And it's English. I mostly watch it for the accents. I just love it, pretty good soundtrack too. I just love this movie.

500 Days of Summer
- The cutest, quirkiest movie. I love it, it's just a simply story line, but with an amazing concept and cinematography and ah-mazing soundtrack. I love this movie so much.

Grease
- The Classic. My favourite movie as a child. I had the soundtrack and everything. I think that this movie was when I first fell in love with musicals, and the 50's.

Mulan
- Favourite animation. Another Musical that kindled my love. This movie is so amazing, and so lovely, and so complex. I love it, the soundtrack is the best of any animation movie and is just one of my childhood favourites.

Honey
- ahhh, I love dance movies. And this for me is the best of the best. Jessica Alba is so nice and pretty and I love this movie. Her morals are so good and everything about it I just love...

Scott Pilgrem vs. The World
- Such an amazing movie. The idea is so good and unique. This would probably be one of the top favourites. I love Michael Cera and in this movie he is amazing. Also it began my love for Sleepy Time Tea.

what the crap?!?

This is terrible.

Picking 5 people is so hard, my list just keeps growing.

So the 7th person to join my list is Ryan Reynolds.

oh goodness

I can't believe this happened.

How embarrassing, I can't believe I forgot.

I would like to officially make my list of 5, 6 by adding Channing Tatum.

Day 22 & 23

Changes in the past two years.

Woah, the past two years have been crazzy. I have completely shaped myself and changed my personality. I have become who I am. It's insane how comfortable I have become with myself, I have completely embraced who I am.

I have made some amazing friends. I have began to shape my future. It's hard to explain really what has changed. but people have come into my life who have completely turned it around. They have changed me. Unfortunately the biggest influence on my life passed away, although I think that by their passing it has influenced me massively. I have changed who I am because I have realised more things. Its been a crazy couple of years. Great years.

Give pictures of 5 guys who are famous and you find attractive.

This will be fun.

Chad Michael Murray

Aaron Johnson (deserves three pictures)

Mark Salling

Bryson Gilreath

Angus Stone...... and Julia

Day 21.

Favourite Show.

I have a few favs and they are.

One Tree Hill
- Because It makes me Happy, and I just love everything about it. the characters. the plot. Everything.

Friends
- It's pretty much the greatest show that ever was. whenever I watch it I fall in love with the show over and over again. It makes me so happy and I relate it to my life. I can tell you everything about this show, and can most likely tell you the minor details so every episode. You name it, I know it. It the most quotable show. And Tiana is my Friends Guru.

Toddlers & Tiaras
- I can't get over the terrible parents in this show. I love it purely to pay it out. It's also very addictive. The parents and children are insane. I really wish I had of been a pageant girl. I've got the walk down.

Project Runway
- I love the creativity, and the outfits the designers come up with. I love the challenges and seeing the innovation.

America's & Australia's Next Top Model
- I LOVE this show. Once again, I love the creativity. I love the challenges and Photo shoots. I love to see what the models come up with, and I think about what I would do in that situation. I secretly wish I was a contestant...

Law & Order
- This is mine and mums late night show. We watch this just before we go to bed to get us nice and sleepy. I love the story lines, it's just a nice show.

Scrubs
- I went through a phase where I wanted to be a nurse, or a Doctor, purely because of this show. It's a light hearted comedy that I love. It's like the modern day Friends and I love it for all the same reasons. Very Quotable also, which is what I love about shows.

Day 19 & 20

Disrespecting Parents


I don't like people who disrespect their parents, it just doesn't make sense. I have a good relationship with my parents, sometimes we get on each other nerves, but it's all love.
They do so much for me and I don't think I will ever be able to repay them.




How Important Education Is

Education, I believe, Is the most important thing. If you don't have an education, you can't really have a job. There are people that drop out after yr 10, that is okay because you have a background to go off. But for people that never had the chance to have an education, i feel sorry for. Like people in 3rd world countries, they just go on living life with no education or career.

For me education is the most important things. I'm glad I have a great education and it's setting up my life pretty amazingly.

wow.

So umm, this week has been extremely amazing.


On Monday, I found out I was winning the FTNM award. Yay!

On Tuesday, I found out I am going to be School Captain in 2011. Yayy!!

Then tonight, Wednesday, I have won the Public Speaking award, and the Participation & Leadership Award.

I'm Pretty happy. with the Public Speaking award I received an Anthology of Australian Literature Book.... Yay?
And with the Leadership and Participation Award I won a lovely big Cup and a plaque. I'm pretty happy, and looking at the previous winners, I think I may be the only yr 11er, so I'm pretty happy about that.
Also, Sally won the award when she was in yr 12, so that's cool.
And Hopefully next year I can do the same again :)


I'm so pleased and I cannot wait for next year to start, this evening and the awards have come at such a great time, I needed this to boost my motivation and it has done exactly that.

AHHH!!!! I'm so happy!!


I also won $48 in The Melbourne Cup Yesterday :D

Day 18.

Beliefs

I believe there is someone for everyone.
I believe people deserve second chances.
I believe in god.
I believe that there is good in everyone.
I believe in fate.
I believe in star sign readings.

O Captain! My Captain!

TODAY.

WAS.

GOOD.

I've had a pretty nice day/week, and I hope it can only get better.

I have a real urge to perform Act II Scene 2 from Romeo & Juliet. Also known as the Balcony scene.

I really feel like doing that :)

Also yesterday I performed a really nice piece in Drama.

And when I say nice, I mean well scripted and good. The chick was a bitch and swore so it was fun. I feel like I did it justice.

Tomorrow is Award Night. I'm pretty stoked. I'm so happy to be getting the FTNM award, because I have worked so hard for it and I wouldn't rather any other award, because this is the subject I am most passionate about. I love it and it's my future :)

I also got new school shoes. I know what your thinking; "why would you get new shoes with less than a month left of school?" because i needed them badly, and i still have all of next year to use them and I just couldn't wait.

Well I do believe this is the most I have blogged in a while. So that's all your getting!

This year

Day 16.

Views on Mainstream Music.

What is mainstream music these days anyway?
Is it whats on the radio? What everyone is listening to? What tops the Saturday countdowns?

Because these days pretty much every genre has been mainstreamed.
If you prefer Indie-er, Unlabelled music - Triple J
The Latest from Big American Artists - B105
Old and new, "rock-ish" - Triple M
Stolen from all other stations - Nova

There is pretty much something for everyone. I really like everything. I listen to B105 in mums car. Triple M in dad's. and Triple J in Mickey's.
I prefer to listen to B105, but then i spend my evenings searching Triple J unearthed.

I pretty much just listen to anything.
Although, my favourite genre would have to be "Punk". Don't really know if that is the correct name for the genre, but just refer to Rise Against, All Time Low, The Getaway Plan, I Am Villain, The Killers the list goes on. But then again, Covers also have a VERY special place in my heart.

I adore youtube covers, professional covers, Covers in every form. Refer to the blog I wrote purely about covers. I love them, that's why i love Glee.


I like what society depicts as Mainstream Music, I also like what isn't mainstream. I just like music in its entirety.

better.

feeling better :)
I've decided to live my life and not care about little useless things.

Next time I'm feeling down i will look back on a quote like this and remember what is really important.

Day 15.

Your favourite blogs.


I don't really have favourite blogs, although I read all my friends posts religiously.
- Jennie
- Ant Man
- Tayla
- Charlotte
- Maddie
- Hannah
- Chelsea
- and of course Suitcase Rummage

That's about it :)

waves a crashin

One thing can kind of set of waves of emotions

I'm pretty down at the moment, because I have sort of stepped back and analysed my life. Why do I kind of get the "left-over love". It's like everyone is giving everyone else their love until their full, then I just get whatever's left.

I'm most likely over-reacting, because that's what I do. But I'm just sick of everything about my life at the moment. I'm sick of the same routines I fall into everyday. Why can't one day I ride a horse to school or something. Or what if I take completely different classes. Or what if I sit with different people. I guess people that I would feel appreciated around, and not singled out.

I'm pretty much the only single girl left in my group. and it sucks ass. I thought I was okay with it. But I'm really not. Because at lunch there always seems to be an odd number of people. I'm the odd.

Everyone just seems to have someone. Or someones. But I really just have no-one.

I feel like I will always be "the single one". But I'm also the advice giver. So it's extremely hard when people come to me for relationship advice, because I get angry when they complain about having someones love.

They don't really understand what that sort of stuff means to me. I don't have what they all have. and I fear I'll die alone.

I'm just sick and tired of caring and making decisions. I'm so over everything.

This is a terrible time for me to be this way, I have done hardly any school work this term, and if I don't start on assignments, I'll soon crumble under the stress. I just need an extreme pick-me-up. But I cannot see one coming anytime soon.

I'm sick and tired of this stress and disappointment.

FML

I'm tired of caring

about everything

just can't be bothered with life anymore

it's all to hard.

Day 14.

Earliest memory


Arrgh I'm really pissed of at the moment, so I hate the memory I have.

I don't have one specific memory, but many. And they all involve me faggot of a brother. I wish I could wipe my memory because it just reminds me of how he used to be; nice to me. Then he turned into a gay, teenager and hasn't yet snapped out of it.
I just wish we could get along. Sometimes I think we do, but then he will just fuck it up.
Arrgh. He annoys me. I just wish he wouldn't be so disrespectful and insensitive. And I wish he was actually able to hold up a conversation.

He makes me cry and it pisses me off!!!!

Arrgh, I hate him so much, but I hate hating him.
I wish we could just get along.
is that too much to ask.


And now as tear roll down my face, I'm questioning whether I want to get along with him whilst he's the person he is.

And because of him, I question everything else. My friendships with everyone else. I HATE THIS!

Day 10.

Discuss your first Love and first Kiss

hokay, so...
First kiss: - year 6, at school... nothing special.

Though I have not yet had the privilege of experiencing love yet. And the way I see it is I'll never really know if I have experienced the most extreme level of emotion within "love". Because like, whenever I have feeling towards someone, they seem to be more than the last time, so If these feelings just keep building and building I will never really know when I'm in love. I'd like to think that one day in the near future I may be in love. But at the rate I'm going, probably doubtful to happen whilst I know any of you that may be reading this now.

I love the whole idea of love, and I love the feeling I get when I like someone. I love to think about how it might feel to be in love. I love seeing my friends in love. I just love love.

Zacharia Bunkenshield

This evening has once again reminded me of how ahmazing Xanthe Peters is. -- and Also Hekla Egilsdóttir.

They both never cease to amaze me, and I'm so lucky I have people like them to look up to and aspire to be like. I thrive on their creativity, and I have missed having people with their artistic flair around me. They are outrageous and are never afraid to push the boundaries, and achieve the unachievable.

They are gods, and they are my Idols.
I'm am going to embrace the crap out of them before they leave me in 4 weeks :(

rad. rad. rad. rad.

Monday....

I have had a reasonably exceptional, cultural filled, Monday. Which makes me really Happy.

I spent drama with my dear Hekla - I rove rer.

Tonight it the cultural showcase - what I wait all year for. Me and Hekla will be Ushers together... hopefully.

It should be good.

Also, in the mail this afternoon I had a lovely surprise waiting for me. I am the proud winner of an academic award. This makes me extremely happy, I have worked so hard all year for this. It was my goal for this year - to win a subject award. I'm just so glad all the work has paid off... Though I'm not sure what it's for yet. I hope its FTV or something along those lines.

Today I didn't do much "school-ish" stuff. Like I went to all my classes, but for some reason they were all a little off... Maths started 20 minutes late, FTV is always brilliant, HPE was in H block and took a while to get sorted, and in Drama we were watching performances for tonight. At 1st Break I was editing my exceptional Facebook Documentary, the 2nd break I was selling sausages... I haven't really had a time to chill yet - My mind has been running all day, But I'm not tired, it has given me an amazing adrenalin rush.

Also today, me and Xanthe discussed our plan to which places and for me to deliver her speech about her art work.... this will not go ahead, although I commend her on her intelligence to see my speech potential... I love this individual.

Also... I love Hekla, just cause :)

Day 9.

How you hope your future will be like.



There is only one thing I want in my future. And that is happiness.
Because the way I see it is, i could have everything in the world, but if I'm not happy - it's not worth it.

There are things that I know will make me happy, so I guess they are things I wish for.
A Successful Job, Beautiful House, Loving Husband, Heavenly Children... the list goes on.

These things - I assume - Will make me happy. So I'm beginning to set myself up for these things now through my education. I'm thinking about things I enjoy and am good at, because I don't want to be stuck in a job that I don't love.


Well that's kinda all I have to say. I want Happiness...

Day 8.

A moment you felt the most satisfied with your life.


The last time i felt the most satisfied was a little over a month ago.
I wrote a blog about it.
It was when everything just seemed to be perfect, everything was going according to plan, and more.

Everything just seemed to slip into place, and i couldn't imagine a better emotion. The the Holidays came and things started to change. Those feeling now feel so distant. I can't even remember what it felt like to just be that happy.
Everything was perfect.


But things are better now than the time between then and now..... (that sentence didn't really make much sense) I'm basically not feeling as bad about life as I was.
I'm still a grumpy moody teenager. But I'm a little happier.

I miss that time. When I was just completely and utterly satisfied with my life.
I felt indestructible. This I just suddenly didn't anymore.

but recently, becoming better friends with Hekla and Xanthe has rekindled some of those emotions. I see the bigger picture once again.
I'm not going to be able to see these people everyday for much longer. I'm going to miss them. Like I miss Des.

I understand that they may not be dying, I will still see them, but it won't be the same. Nothing will ever be the same again.

my hair....

my hair is currently half straightened,
and I'm not sure whether i can be bothered to do the rest of it

Day 7.

Zodiac Sign and if you think it fits your personality.

I am a Scorpio - and this is a description I found:

Reputed to be the "most powerful" sign of the zodiac, Scorpios lead fate filled lives and have intense and dramatic personal relationships. Even as children Scorpios are often found to be wise beyond their years. Many astrologers call this the sign of the "oldest souls". Old and wise beyond the average, Scorpios often know all the answers, except sometimes; they too often have difficulty finding what they need to develop their own happiness.

Passion, desire and power go hand in hand for Scorpios. Their biggest challenge and test in life is choosing between the power of love and the love of power. Coming to grips with their extraordinary emotional depths and sensitivity isn't easy for those around them. They are different from all other zodiac signs and this difference has them walking, working and loving to a different beat. Others can often live with a Scorpio partner for years, but not really know them. Much to do with a Scorpio remains ever secret. Their eyes often blaze with feelings that words never express, and beware on the days or nights they hide their feelings behind dark glasses, there is likely to be a storm of some kind brewing. When you deal with a Scorpio you have to always deal with them on a psychic intuitive level. They often wear a mask. Too often they say "no" when they really mean "yes". They have contrary natures. Once they find true love they can be the most faithful dedicated of all partners but fall out badly with a Scorpio and you are likely to find they will never forget or forgive.

Most Scorpios are winners. The main thing they have to worry about is their attitudes, which make up their mind powers and can either make or break them. When they are negative about something or someone, or critical of themselves, they can tend to get in their own way.


I think this is quite true of me. Especially when it says "Old and wise beyond the average, Scorpios often know all the answers, except sometimes; they too often have difficulty finding what they need to develop their own happiness." I think I'm wise, and other do too. However when it comes to my own problems I can become very lost. I do everything and anything to help others, but can never help myself.


I went out half way through writing this blog, soo I'm not terribly keen to finish it now.

But I do think I'm a Scorpio. I fit pretty much everything above. And I'm okay with that :)

why oh why?

I've gone and done something stupid.
I have made new friends.
I have been acquaintances with them for a long time now. But in the past week or so I have become really close with them.
The dilemma is that they only have about 20 days left.
I'm going to miss them so much. These days, whenever I see one of these amazing people, I have this sudden feeling of Happiness. I may be having the crapest of crap days, but I just need a couple of brain teasers to perk me right up.

I don't know why bad things always happen to me.
Why did I have to go and love these people, why?

They all have their own individual amazing qualities, and I just don't want next year to come around.
I have merely 4 weeks left with these people. Until they will be gone forever.

It makes me so sad just thinking about it. I wish I had of befriended these individuals so much earlier in my schooling, so then I could have spent so much more time with them.
But unfortunately, this was not so. And now I have to endure the heart break of when they leave me when I only just got them.

XHJD ♥
