tired.

yep, first day back at school. had breakfast with friends which was fun. only had one period (english). i have 4 period 6's in a fortnight now, i prefer period 0's. i have no period 0's! i was extremely tired today. it was extremely humid. i lied to my music teacher about doing my work over the holidays.. so here i am writing about.. 2 months worth of music notes in one night gaah stupid jade ahaha..

i talked to 3 of my teachers today about uni courses and the hsc. they all say they reckon i can get 97+ if i'm consistent. hah, consistent. i fail at being consistent. start of year 11 i aced everything. end of year 11 i was average/below average.. okay, maybe not that bad but i wasn't happy with my marks.

i need to focus this year. aaaand.. the teachers are right, "if we all do well, we all do well." i'm hoping that everyone can work together. sometimes it gets pretty competitive or just selfish and secretive with people. man i hope it's a good year.

to people born in the year of the monkey. wear a gold pig if you have one! or some chinese pig charm so we won't clash with the bad spirits of the tiger and snake. they're the bad luck animals for us this year. apparently this year there's bad luck for us monkeys. first thought going through my mind was *omgsh nuu.. hsc!!!* ahaha! oh and roosters don't worry! apparently you guys have good luck this year haha. yes, i'm superstitious. well i only follow the chinese lunar thing, any other kind of fortune/future thing to me is fake. (:

sorry i haven't posted recently. i was planning to do a vlog then post it up haha. now i don't think i'll have the time.

anyway my parents talked to me earlier..

they've got this new "encouraging incentive" for me.

so if i get a 85-89.99 atar i'll get $1000, 90-94.99 i'll get $2000 and 95+ i'll get $3000 plus there might be more depending on what choice course i get in and all that.. wow..

added conditions are i don't go on msn, facebook, blog or go on any kind of social networking kind of thing anymore. only occasionally when it's holidays or i have free time and i need a break i guess.

which is impossible!

.. but i guess they're right. i get so distracted. sorry everyone but i won't be blogging as often. maybe once a week? maybe less? i'll see how i go.

skdhfbksdhf. the thoughts about a certain someone have started to creep back into my mind. i really don't like it. seriously have no idea what to do ahah.. i've considered doing/saying so many things. some stupid and some not bad ideas but i'm too scared to actually go ahead with whatever i plan. so here i am sitting here feeling sorry for myself (jade, you're a loseeer). everytime i sign online he's there. he never says hi to me anymore. i feel like a total idiot for sitting down, doing my work but every 10 seconds i'll check to see if he's signed off or said hi or something..

even though he said he wants to keep his promise i feel like i'm not even a friend of his anymore. urgh, love sucks. ):anyway i thought i'd end this blog on a positive note. i saw this on a shirt in hawaii. i lolled at it for a while haha. :3

NOT COOL.

my flight has been delayed 15 hours. now i'm leaving at 11.30am tmr ahah.. T.T! i'm getting to hawaii at 12am. maybe i can go for a midnight swim (:




yee.. but this really sucks i'm losing a day of hawaii now )':

hi and bye.

hi everyone, i have to make this quick!

sorry i haven't blogged for.. six days is it? wow. after this blog you wont be hearing from me for at least eleven days. COS IM OFF TO HAWAII OH YEE BAAABY! ;D

i hope you all have a good time with the rest of your holidays. to those of you in year 12, make the most of the two weeks we have left! i just started my english speech this evening. @#*?!%?#!#$^&*@!!!!!!! so yee, get some study done. don't be a time waster like me (: but also don't stress too much, try have some balance. i guess easier said than done huh? haha >< good luck with english speeches and studying 4u maths and other subjects.. ew lol D:

ah anyway i better get back to english. oh and i still haven't packed for tomorrow hah. i'm just the best when it comes to time management.

take care everyoneee, aloha :D

~~

a really messy blog.

HI EVERYONE! it's so hot yee? i've been hiding indoors all day =)


ohh yee berni here's my shirt! i love anything to do with mario kart, especially if its toad or mushrooms 8D

5th -- i saw sherlock holmes with my family. ahh sherlock holmes is one awesome guy! if you haven't watched avatar and sherlock holmes and you want to see one of them, i suggest to see sherlock holmes (Y) i love it when the story starts off with something and the whole time you believe it. finally at the VERY END they reveal something else so you're like WOOOOW :D! or i guess avatar is cool too, just that the storyline is pretty stupid. the effects are awesome though. actually yesterday the farmers were talking about avatar being exactly like pocohontas except the natives are aliens. and then i realised, they're right haah xD

6th -- wednesday i had my first piano lesson. after a looong time. (: mm.. i suck at piano now haha ><

7th -- i had my optometrist appointment. we were about to leave for towers and then ray called saying how we still didn't have a bday present for berny. we picked him up on the way to towers, then i had my eyes checked and we went berny present hunting. we ended up buying him this super cool dancing chicken which makes noise when you strangle it HAHA! dumdedumm.. at night we went to this farewell party for my neighbour, he's moving next week. yeeep, so i met all these people that lived on my street and the joining street off ours. i also caught up with these kids.. (well they're not kids anymore, a year or two older than myself) that i used to hang around when i was little. mm it was pretty fun haha. we stayed there until around 1 in the morning and then i realsied i was going to the beach the next day so i walked home.

8th -- BERNY'S BEACH BIRTHDAY THING! although we hardly saw berny ): i ended up sleeping at 3 and i woke up at 7. that was not cool. XD mm so we picked up ray and chandles then we were dropped off at beecroft station. okay, i'm going to skip alot of stuff.. lalala.. met up with bravin and grace. lalala.. told grace she should've bought a daytripper. lalala.. met jimmy at circular quay lalala.. met rachel at circular quay. lalala.. ferry to manly. lalala.. okay i cbb anymore. we didn't swim. too many jellies in the water. i laugh at kids who freak at bluebottles. they're not that bad. or maybe it's cos i've been stung by other jellyfish before -shrug-. played in sand most of the day. dnm's! got sunburnt even though i was hiding in a tent for a while. geeeh, here's some photos. i didn't take any when we were at the beach, zomg you suck jade. (:




ahh feel the sunburn :D

i really want to go beach on tuesday with my rsc bubbies HEEH. but if i'm still sunburnt i think i'm just going to meet them afterwards ><

AND NOW.. i have to go. family friends are coming over and i have to prepare for dinner.

~~

FINALLY!!

i actually did take photos of nye! i totally forgot O:

a few luvo photos with tara and a picture of grace walking up to my house HAHAHAHAH! .. jade you're freking sad :D

can you see my sewing machine in the background of the photo? (: .. that reminds me, i still haven't done anything for textiles this holiday >< just random idea genereations =/ i need to go to I LOVE YOU (bead store)! ahh berni, would you mind going a second time with me? i think i better get some my stuff before i go overseas so i can do some work on the plane and when i have spare time.. whenever that may be.. haha ;D

grace walking up to my house LOOOOOOOL!

ahh okay, a recap on my weekend!

2nd -- went to paddington with my mummy, auntie lucy and BERNAAY woo! i was pretty excited to go (i always get excited when i go to paddington, especially when i get to bring an awesome friend along with me ;D!) anyway pretty much the same thing happens when i go to paddington! my mum and auntie lucy decide to park in the same place (at the end of oxford street.) we start off at akira or near it and sloooowly make our way down until the markets. my mum and auntie lucy spend hours in each designer store and i head off for the markets first cos i'm impatient. i always seem to come across something really new/different at the markets AND THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT SO EXCITING YAAAY!

anyway here's some photos to explain the rest of the day XD

one day when we're rich berni, we'll get clothes like these :D!

intricate carvings into fruit and vegetables, this guy was too cool.

WE SAW POH FROM MASTERCHEF HHAHAHAHAAHAHH

one of the best homemade lemonades i've ever had (:

i make out the woman in the background to be evil.. i guess she didn't do anything wrong, i just wanted to sit cos my feet hurt haha

it was a really rainy/muggy day. i think that was the only bad thing that happened that day. earlier in the day it was pouring seriously like epic amounts of rain ): so my mum and auntie lucy sent berni and i to the car to grab the umbrellas. i wish we waited for the rain to die down a bit cos we both ended up quite wet and i walked around in wet shoes almost the whole day resulting in sore feet and a really stiff back D: .. my mum didn't like me running around in wet strappy ballet flats so she ended up buying me these cute black sandals so i'd be walking around with dry feet. i guess that made up for the pain LOL ^^

3rd -- my parents wanted to go yum cha so we called up anneleise's parents and they ended up joining us at eastwood. i didn't do too much yesterday, after yum cha we just went home. OH RIGHT! but later we picked up tara from work and i bought these two shirts i was after.. i don't have a picture atm, but i'll post one up when i wear the shirts (they're guy shirts haha.. WHY DO GUYS ALWAYS GET THE COOLEST PRINTS T.T?!) i'm quite sick of the crazy, in your face florals and vintage prints which take over the simple designs which are in too many stores now. i want to see something new :3

TODAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! -- now referring to my title.. after one and a half years of arguments over driving, I FINALLY GOT MY L'S! YAYAYAYAY


the test was actually REALLY EASY. i finished it in 15 minutes lolololol. i was pretty scared at first cos the dude in front of me failed and the girl who did the test the same time as me finished before me and failed too D:! but i was on question 43 and realised i hadn't made any mistakes yet so i was pretty relieved after that and yep, full marks (Y) ahh i also saw daniel kim at the rta o.o he did the dkt after me and he passed too.

i didn't tell my mum i was going for my L's. i didn't tell many people i was going for my L's o.o only my dad, tara and 3 friends knew? i was scared i was going to fail, everyone would ask me how i went and i'd have to reply with a FAIL. BUT I PASSED! :D

i got home and my mum was wondering why i had come back home. i told her i started to get this really bad headache and called a farmer saying i wasn't going to macq anymore. OH YEAAAAH, i told my mum i was going to macq with farmers and she was puzzled why i was back home so early. mr rayman almost blew it cos he called me jsut before i left asking if i could come to city. i told my mum ray was going to macq so i ended up making up some dodgy lie and sounding really awkward on the phone with ray, SORRY RAY HAHA T.T!

i sat down for a while pretending to look like i was in a bit of pain (i think i failed that, i had to keep looking away cos i was smiling too much) and then i shoved the license infront of my mum. she was pretty suprised which was good :D!

umm.. yep i think that was my day.

i just have one more photo to post up before i go. i didn't blog about this day last week, i forgot about it after my new years post.

four parachuters and an air glider, can you spot the air glider?

last tuesday i went to the south coast. i took this photo in the car. i've always wanted to go skydiving/parachuting/air gliding! when i saw them i did go quite ballistic x) my dad said he might let me go for my 18th birthday or if it clashes with my studying time that i can go after hsc. yaaay!

~~

wuaah, i write long blogs.

2010.. whaa?!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONEE!

for nye i had grace, chan, ray, anneleise and mitchell over! i thought it was going to be a really boring and dragged out night but it ended up being the most fun i've had in quite a while haha (:

the night consisted of listening to fireworks outside, marshmallow salad, being stupid on the wii, a few awesome pictionary games and getting angry at newts in scattegories eeeh :D

mmm so we were all hyped for the countdown at 12 and then at 11.59 anneleise tells us it's a minute until new year but we were so engrossed in the round of our scattegories game we missed the countdown LOL. okay well i saw the *1* in the countdown and then *happy new year!* but i thought it was a replay of the 2009 fireworks D: then i realised so i screamed out HAPPY NEW YEAR and everyone went spastic lololol. yeep so ray, grace, chan, elsa, tara and i were running round the street screaming happy new year and then ye.. we were just crazy last night x)

..unfortuntely i have no photos of last night >< had so much fun i forgot to take any ahhh 8)

hope you all had a good time bringing in the new year too! ;D
