slow... down...

Last night's ritual was amazing.
I would like to thank Helen, and everyone who made the ritual so special.

The heat of Rose Cottage... the meditation... the halo around the moon... the storm on the horizon... 13 witches in attendance...

It all made for a wonderful night, and I loved being back at the cottage.


It was strange to have some thinking time to myself last night. Usually I feel as though my mind is going a million miles an hour.
Mum's pregnancy...
subject selections (now visual arts, english extension, geography, chemistry, biology and mathematics)...
15 year old soon-to-be-alcoholics (not me of course)...
assignments! bluergh...
broken friendships... and new and improved friendships...

All going around in my mind in a continuous circle. I guess it's frustrating at times, but I need to learn to go 'blank' and just stop.


Art helps though. I had the idea of photocopying a bunch of things that were important to me, and this was the result-

I'd recommend giving it a try, the results can be pretty surprising.

Family barbecue tomorrow, with the grandparents, for Mum's birthday (09/09/09) and Father's Day. And the Newcastle Knights game, which is very important. Yes, I am a rugby league fan. Why do some people get shocked by that? Anyways, this game basically decides whether or not we are in the semi-finals. Very. Important.

Going to make Tiramisu in a bit, be jealous :)
love, x.

holidays!

I know I haven't blogged in ages, life has been pretty insane around here.

There is Mum, who has just reached the half-way mark, pregnancy-wise. We can hear the baby's heartbeat pretty well now, even though my heartbeat still comes up as either -20 or 200 on the Doppler.


I finished Biology at Uni. I got myself a High Distinction :)
Now I am ready to start all over again with a Uni Chemistry course.

School is dying down at the moment, most of the talk is about what HSC subjects everyone is going to pick. I've decided I want to go to the University of Technology in Sydney to get a 'Bachelor of Forensic Biology in Biomedical Science'. I still don't know what subjects for sure and I am at 15 units, which is 3 more than recommended...
- Advanced English
- Mathematics Extension 1
- Earth and Environmental Sciences
- Biology
- Chemistry
- Visual Arts
- Ancient History

Something tells me I need to cut down on some subjects.

Then there is the holidays, which started this afternoon. I am going away for a few days with friends and hopefully there will be many more get-togethers. And we will finally have the 1950's Murder party which has been planned for ages because Paul needs to use his 'How to Host a Murder Party' kit.

So, excitement all round for my life at the moment.

first blog in a while.

Hahahaha.

I must have really paid attention in my 'Why Bother with Sex?' University lecture...

15/15! Mum must be so proud.



On another note, Glen is finally in Australia and I get to see him tomorrow. First time in 8 years :)

What a great weekend I seem to be having.

Odyssey of the Mind

Otherwise known as making a fool of yourself for no reason.



"Superstition
The problem is to create and present a performance that includes two documented superstitions, an original superstition created by the team, and the origin. The performance will also include a funny narrator, a costume that is worn by two or more team members at the same time, and a stage set. During the performance the same stage set items will transform into something else. "



We won the 'Oustanding OMer' award.
And we also beat the other team in our division.

Because I get to play Poseidon.

And the latest of Bianca's completely out of the blue decisions...
I'm going to do University Chemistry next.
I'm hoping it will help me with forensic pathology later on.
And Paul will be in my class :)

Tomorrow I have my 'Odyssey of the Mind' performance. I get to pretend to be a pirate and the sea God Poseidon in front of judges and an audience. I'm very nervous and very excited. I should have a video of it tomorrow, as long as mum records it.

much love

And this is my profile :)

hooray for me!

I just found out that I am coming 24th in my Uni course out of 337 people.
Most of them are at least 4 years older than me.
And have been through high school Biology.


Hell YES :)
