relatively uneventful weeeeek. UNSW open day tomorrow, i know majority of my friends are going so if you want to meet up, just call me maybe :)

thanks for the memories- #500

The 500th post since this blog started! (:
taht realisation we're about the complete our entire schooling education in under 3 weeks D: guys i find my pencil case that i lost in year 8 (4 years ago). My year 8 DT teacher found it and sent it over during period 5. Opening it was like a blast from the past, i saw colour pencils- i lold. I also realised that stationary back in the day was so decorative and fun and weird like i had smelly rubbers and flexible pencils and all, whereas nowwww, all the stationary we use are purely functional ahahah. Like the USSR's architecture ;D (for those who do modern :P). Adv english wasnt tooooooo bad hopefuly 80 is above average. I think i did okay in the trials i think most are above average except for economics so i'm content, hopefully i can go up a couple more rankings in the last report. really need to work on economics from now on.

edit: OMG FOUND MY YEAR 7/8 1GB USB WITHIN MY PENCILCASE OMG HAHAAH my yeaer 7 and 8 assignments :'DDDDD and guys look what i found.

OH MA GAWD AHAHAHHAA year 6 graduation + a cruise with family also in 2006 i think. OHWOW- times change really fast dont they that was almost 6 years ago! And now im taller than my sister by around how much she was taller than me by in that picture hurhur. Year 6 formal- i dont even remember it but i do remember it was at blacktown and that picture was with my best friend and the friend i've known the longest x)

I've learnt a lot more about myself tonight, and im happy- jealousy, it's a weakness that i'll be wary of in the future and I'm glad everything got sorted even though it was seemingly trivial. YOu learn more about yourself through experiences, thought i was being really immature and shit and didnt want to approach the matter but my friends understood me (Y) and now i feel much better- communication (Y). I think being open about things and putting more trust in your friends can either strengthen relationships or break them.

Hate how my economics teacher lectures/ helps the top students or students with potential and trying to be really anal to maximise their marks while blatantly disregarding the lower performing students. The whole cohort really needs to do well she shouldn't just be concentrating on the handful of good students but students as a whole and even more so the less well performing students. Eh she's not that amazing of a teacher anyway so i don't really care but still. NEED TO BE WRITING MANY MANY ESSAYS THIS WEEK CMON DANIEL.

never too old for rides ;D /year 12 student reppin #yolo

OH GREAT looks like the number of 18th parties im giong to miss after hsc ends has risen to 6.

The happy times: 25th-26th

25.8.2012-26.8.2012 definitely a week to remember- a big weekend deserves a big post :D
Actually the whole week was amazing! from the spirit week to the winter vibes (which i've already talked about) but this weekend 2 parties in a row and everyday was packkedddd. In this blog post (if you so choose to remain till the end) you will seeee the highs and lows (but mostly highs) of my weekend.
So saturday:
- woke up went to early session of tennis
- went home showered prepared for R's party that night
- rushed out after about 10minutes to catch the train to attend usyd open day
- WAS LATE so had to rush out of the car- and this is where the low comes in my haste my beloved ipodtouch slipped out of my pocket and slammed into the gravel screen first- gg scratches and cracks (really bad) alllll over the screen. It still works but when i was using it today, to change songs involves me sliding my finger(s) across the screen resulting in little fragments of glass getting embedded into my fingers hmmmm- $80 to repair? no fanxxx. AND TURNS OUT that the train was delayed in the end >.> arghh
- so arrived at usyd late walked around met up with some people, cuoldn't bothered navigating and walked around more. we got lured by the signs of free food and made our way to the engineering faculty where we got free fairyfloss and ice cream LOLOL. it wasnt even that good. That resulted in having to power walk to redfern station for a train ride to eastwood to attend the SPRING FAIRRR woo
- got there and got frozen yoghurt but the machine was dodge (or maybe i just cant use it) and ended up filling half my cup with plain froyo >.> was burping froyo all day.
- rides and water fights at eastwood fair ruined my hair and made my pants dirty and wet D:
- so basically by the time of the party i looked like a mess since i'd already been through a day of action ahahha
- highlight of the night 4:30-9:30 amazing night, R's parents made a really heartfelt 18th speech really sweet and Ar and Aj were great MC's. SO much fun just being gay and gangnam styling with all the guys in the hall, girls didn't really get invovled which was kinda lame, but it was okay! we did some pretty awesome covers of gangnam style, we even did the part where the guy went through the girls' legs ;D except in all our cases the legs were guys LOLOOLOL. Perfect timing when her birthday cake came out everyone started singing straight away on cue. After that we played a little table tennis and some basketball while just generally being in really high spirits. It was just an amazing night that i wont forget, just happy to attend the 18th of one of my closest friends :) We ended the night by being derps and just taking all the helium balloons and taking turns to make high voices ahhaha.

^classiest birthday girl ahahahahah- inside joke/ sentimental value :)

^FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD BRAH so much foooddd (:(:(: this wasnt even all of it haha

DAY 2:
- Wokeup mid afternoon had a brunch and got ready for E's party. Whole body was aching and stiff and knees were kindof in pain due to over exessive gangnam styling the night before hahahha

- Got to cherrybrook at aroundd 6:35 pretty long drive from where i live, new experience! first time i've been to cherrybrook village, hahaah began taking photos like an asian tourist...
- food was pretty good, i liked their pizza! it was a bit segregated but it was good when we stood up and everyone sang happy birthday while E blew out her candles. I swear her cakes at every birthday of hers are AMAZING :OOO teehee
- It was a great day, more formal and less intensive than the day before I liked the calm chilled atmosphere of the restaurant hahaha.
- Me and K left at around 9:30 when the restaurant closed on us haahha, K drove us to where you ask? to take luvos!!! wooo we went on a joy ride blasting out indian music from the car at 10pm at night lolllolol. Passed maccas and decided to drive into the 24/7 maccas at castle hill in suits like bosses, whlst being given weird looks from the bogans who were eating mcdonalds at that hour of day, all good after all /yolo.

- On the joy ride so embarassing- My friend told me to upload, please dont watch it for my and your sake loolol (yeah this isnt going to work you're gonna watch it arent you you curious humans). I stopped because i realised we were driving at night on P plates and i was potentially distracting him and i dont want to die (:

  - YEAHHHHHH my eyes are non existent but YEAHHHHHH real men luvo in the bathroom.

- Reliving my childhood- mcdonald's playground in suits- and yes the playground is 24/7 aswell :D Fuq da police- daniel plays by no age restrictions #yolo.

- AFter an amazing dinner and an amazing night got home at the reasonable time of around 11 ish... Only to realise the extent of being in a rush and not cleaning up after trial exam carnage. Also don't even get me started on my study room lolllloollo

@melancholylove LEARN what REAL MESS ISSSS!!

congrats if yo've made it down here, hope you've enjoyed the journey as much as i've enjoyed creating it ;D (including the actual writing of this opst which took around 1hr)

Inb4 fail adv eng, ext eng and modern tomorrow gg life.

Why do I get jealous so easily.
I feel betrayed.
Have you forgotten about me already.
Why do i even care about this trivial issue..
girls.

feels like i've been used. well.. this is new not used to this before, i have a feeling there will be more to come when i enter uni in the very near future.

Had an AMAZING post trial week so amazing so tired but just omg words cannot explain how fun this week has been. It really is true year 12 is the best year of your highschool life by farrrr. Seriously doesn't feel like school tomorrow. Will do a massive weekend summary post pictures and all later. Look forward to it! Oh and I met happy apple irl... Shorter than expected hahaha would've liked the opportunity to talk to more people but ehh next time :)

Multicultural dayyy- the last

OHS issues kinda made multicultural day much lamer than last year... no sock wrestling, no pillow fighting and they even banned stalls from cooking food in school.... but none the less participated in an indian/lankan dance known as 'Baila' at lunch wooooo pretty good atmosphere a lot of the school got involved. it was lke an indian rave session in the middle of the school ahaha, pretty devo that we werent ready in time for the multicultural day talent quest... since the kpop acts we saw today were kindof dryyy, but it's okay another 4 weeks until talent quest (Y).

Oh yeah and i forgot to mention that yesterday I locked myself and two others in the school changerooms, we needed a place to pee then we opened the door and it locked behind us and we could HEAR the music from downstairs but we couldn't get out, oh mannn such a derp face-palm worthy moment. Tried to call my friends, but didnt expect them to pick up or hear since you cant really hear anything when music is blasting. SO in the end a pretty cool year 7 kid who was trapped with me and friend suggested that we climb through the window, oh year 7's :) but he was too short and my friend was too fat, soooo in times like this it was up to MEEEEE so yeah climbed onto the window ledge then dropped couple of metres outside of the change rooms. WHile my friend was holding the window up so that it wouldnt swing down on hit me in the head and the year 7 was holding the chair-> good team work :'D Then i came back around and opened the door for them yayyyyy. Lol okay cool story, but still it was pretty exciting :)

just watched 100 days with mr arrogant, technology really has ruined plotlines, i just find it not believeable that the girl cant seem to contact the guy's phone or even through the internet considering how easily they were texting/calling each other before.

2 parties for the weekend LEGOOOOO. tomorrow is going to be crazy tennis, usyd + uts open day, eastwood spring fair, then party. soo much packed in. wish me luck. Night guys, the many people that i'll pass through tomorrow, see you all there!!! :D

MAN AFTER THIS WEEK OF FUN I HAVE TO RETURN TO THE MUNDANE HSC LIFE ON MONDAY D: D: nothng to look forawrd to or do, EXCEPT FOR HSC argh. oh well gonna enjoy every minute of it (:

1hr until winter vibes, /starts raining and thundering. are you serioousss :( ohw ell whatever if the hall floods. cool. lol. Gotta get ready now and eat dinner im starvinggg

Edit: oh the familiar feeling of ringing ears, headache and sore throat :) oh how i have missed you. THe last vibes didn't fail to impress, glad i went another great year, songs were kinda average but overall great night- photos to comeee! I'm tired going to sleeeeep now, multicultural day tomorrow- was giong to dress up as a communist but ceebs now.

Everygrade of all ages in my school now knows gangnam style, they were dancing to it today... lllolollol to... party music. THEY DIDNT PLAY PARTY ROCK ANTHEM TODAY :(

Ah psy is so cool.

Look what we got today guys.

Solid confirmation of the end of our high school journey, it brings a (metaphorical) tear to my small eyes :'( I swear this term just began, but i actually need to work even harder now even though we've just done trials, must make the most of my teachers in the 4 weeks that are left.

Winter vibes tomorrow WOOOOO the last winter vvibes, heard its going to have a bigger turnout than last year! i think almost half the school is going. No doubt a great atmosphere yayyyyyyy 6:30- 9:30 my body is ready, year 12 2012 lets party harrddddd and make it one enjoyable night to remember, equal to or even better than last year!

and yes i have re emerged from my economics deathbed- must. ace. hsc.

hello fellow hsc readers, if you dont understand how HSC mark calculations work you should check this out (: DO IT i know you're not studying right now. AND YAY gives me more hope woooo, even more glad that i go to a selective school now. Although wow i now know why our teachers have been telling us just how important the lowest mark in the class is, the lowest mark is literally going to drag everyone down!! and by a lot if the mark is realllly bad fuhhh. By memory the range between highest and lowest mark in our cohort is pretty large, which is badddd. Ranks are so important faq, only kindof good ranking is modern arhh

My exam results have been acceptable so far, but tomorrow /mentally prepares self- economics results, GG /prepares death bed arrghhhhhhhhh. And ou r grade didn't do well in the humanities at all, quote Ms K (legal teacher): "This has been the shittest exam i have ever marked in my 14 years at girraween" wow feels bad mannn- aiggoooo teachers so dissapointed in uss! and the social science faculty shows us so much support, time to step it up for hsc guys. At least modern was on average better than ancient and legal, but we shall see after tomorrows modern results. I like sweet's approach to results nowadays, still optimistic/ still can have a bright face and have a good laugh after the results come through. Much better than the doom and gloom plastered on many girls' faces after results, really not good for me you or anyone. Stay optiministic, move on and concentrate on your next exam, after all nothing more can be done after an exam anyway! but MAN i really want this hsc journey to end so tired of it, just want to go to uni and start my life!

LOL usyd open day on saturday have a party to attend so will be walking around the city/ university in formal attire, and i think my friends will be walking around in tuxes hhahaha, oh well. And then travelling to eastwood to check out le spring fair, then bus/walk to denistone woooooo in for a crazy day.

Weekend adventures- FOOD and more.

HI GUYS had an amazing weekend with the sister in the city to kick off a week of post trial celebration wooooo (except that slightly got dampened by trial results which immediately came back today, but will get to that later) This will be mainly a photo post wooo.

So outcomes of the trip?

I bought a mac for uni guys.

FUARK so sexy compared to the acer/hp/toshiba laptops that i sawww. It feels so niceeee /strokes laptop. Lol next to it is my shitty school laptop WHICH will be ours! in a few weeks i think we're going to be handing in our laptops soon so the transfer process can take place, yay no more DET monitoring/ blocked internet anymore it's ours now, Although i dont htink i'd ever use it anymore 3 years old technology, especially since i have a macbook now.

Okay so basically first day was just wandering around looking at laptops and new phone for sister/myself etcetc. Then we watched dark knight TOO GOOD  the plot is actually pretty good for a mainstream blockbuster movie, enjoyed the plot twists and everything, incorporated with a perfect amount of engaging action adn if you do histories you may even pick up on the historical references/ intercontextual themes in the movie. ANd last but not least OH MY GOD anne hathaway QAQ isnt she like 30... her costume covered everything but practically revealed everything, and is it really necessary to fight with like 10 inch heels on lmfao as if catwoman can fight efficiently with 10cm heels on.... But oh ma gawd. Have to admit the acting/storyline/everything is better than other superhero movies ive watched like thor and iron man etc...

Damnit so much more food in the city than blacktown :(
For lunch had mexican and ordered a "secret taco" as in you dont know what ingredient they put in it. SO then i ate it and it was soem weird texture that i never had before, turns out it was lamb oesophagus LOLOOL cool. Forgot to take a picture >:(

Thai salad + soft shell crab and others for dinner, already ate most of it before i took a picture LOL i always forget...

 Handmade red bean mochi + green tea froyo for dessert :) have to say not a big fan of mochi in general

and THIS my friends is a burgerrrrr.

AND THIS is the face of pure ecstacy, also maybe because i was pretty hungry. Taken by my sister, hm now that i look at it, it's probably not the best photo of me, oh man how unappealing hahahaa only for you blog readers (x My eyes were actually open :c

SO MUCH FOOOD am i making you hungry? hurhur, although i did take them rather rushed with just ipod camera so yeahh.

Oh yeah and I slept at my sister's place, she has a futon, SO GOOD i think im going to get my parents to buy one for me. It's like a japanese styled wooden bed that's really low just slightly raised from the ground, but it's so comfortable and big.

GIRRA SPIRIT WEEK HAS BEGUNNNN :)  Time to refresh those dance moves ;D hahahhahaha photos to come this week! x]


asuhduashduasdhuashd neon bunny- prince so good. Been trying to look for the song for so long, legit grateful to the one who ended up finding it for me. 

The end is nigh

TRIALS FINNISSHEEDDD WOOOOOOOOOO, after 6 years- NO MORE ASSESSMENTS SET BY THE SCHOOL EVARRRR WOOO. I've been through almost 6 years of exams, the most of any grade currently in school. Wow at the number of little kids that have invaded high school, i don't feel lke im in high school any more... where are all these young CHILREN coming from, feels like im in a primary school... i always thought high school was for big people, and all i see in the crowded corridors are fresh faced prepubescent little faces, oh how times change. I'm scared to think, how different my life will be one year from now, what will life's little game hold in store for me? oh i wonder, please treat me kindly. I'll hopefully never let this blog die, i've had it for more than 2 years now and wow have i changed in 2 years, hopefully it'll keep track and memories along with the changes that will happen for many years to come. I also hope my fellow bloggers do the same (: will really enjoy reading everyones new experiences and changes in lives for many years to come

this meme of mine has never been more relevant

BUT STILL im rejoicing. POST TRIALS let the good times rolllll, many things to do- parties to attend, many performances to (perform?) lol. Also will apply for UAC as soon as possible and get that over and done with. SO what im looking forward to?
Saturday: tennis/ trekk to sisters place in the city to hang out, browse for a new phone/laptop then have dinner at the city followed by some brother sister drama watching and sleep over
Wednesday: chilling /w friend at parra
Thursday: school disco (aka winter vibess wooooo)
Friday: multicultural day + kpop performance
Saturday: R's 18th

WHOOP, good thing about end of examinations is that theres an excuse to partayyy hardddd. I'm liking this work hard play hard kind of thing we have going on.

Will be looking forward soem good nights sleep todayyyyyy. Exams and lack of sleep painnn.
My parents: "hey dnot sleep too late tomorrow 10am is late enough, your hsc isnt finished make sure you keep studying tomorrow"
Me: "loollol yeahhh thats totes going to happen" (i don't have school until monday so yeah :D)
BUt yeah 1 weeks break then it's back onto the job, just have to persevere through another couple months. 5 weeks of school remain i really can't believe it, i really have almost reached the end of a significant journey in my life. Never thought i'd say this, but looking forward to resuming normal school life, and so i should be i only have a limited time to do so!

*exam next day*
Me: -watching rhythmic gymnastics until 12am-
hmmmmm solid preparation.

OMG im so excited for the parties after trials, buying my formal/semi-formal attire and accessories hnnngggggg.

It's friday friday, which means i give myself a end of week break. ALTHOUGH I SHOULDN'T must study.

Gangnam style.

listening to psy... holy crap hes actually really good, i dismissed him as an artist before without even listening to his music. His songs are really catchy, good party music makes me want to dance LOLLoll. And i saw his live perfromances on yt, he got the crowd more involved than like beast/bigbang/snsd etc.

Eng adv belonging + craetive tomorrow argghh my weakness :(

snapped a string at tennis this morning = -$35 from my wallet :( i should invest in a less expensive sport haha. SO i was feeling myself up in the shower the other day (as you do) and i noticed that i have one rib on each side that slightly protrudes from the rest... is that normal lol...

NGawww girraween high school, oh you. ALways wondered who actually bothers to change that noticeboard.

Calmly drawing at kids table in commonwealth banks whilst waiting for friend to deposit money. It's been a long time but i think i did it right (Y).

test #1

return of the 3 hr exams- almost forgot the pain in my hand after non stop writing for 3 hours. Its weird how different way people write affect the strains in their hands. For me my middle finger tends to hurt and feel strained after non stop writing, for others their pinkies? yeahhh i can already feel the formation of thicker skin/padding on my middle finger, by the end of the exams it'll probably form a little mound lolol . My words were looking SOOOO sloppy after the 2 and a half hour mark, i was rereading what i had just written and i couldnt even make out what it said lol. Man forgot how taxing 3 hours of exams are, the amount of concentration is a lot more tiring than like 6 hours of a normal school day.

I have 6 tests in total, i think i'll rank how i went out of 10 after each exam, and when results come see how accurate i am :D

so today Test #1-modern
7/10

going to enjoy some good tennis tomorrow-> looking forward to friday night footy and hopefully get some good nights sleep today, try to clock 8+ hours today. I think im a bit too chilled at the moment, just watching the hockey :S I think i'll get my modules for english sorted today. My teacher isnt responding to my email arghhh I NEED HELP WITH MOD C :(:(

Also got my UAC pin through le main today, arghhh applying for uni soon :S:S will do it asap after trials

Let the trials begin!

It just hit me, I have my first trials exam tomorrow. It just hit me, this will be the last school based examination that I will ever do. So many lasts sigh sigh, I really appreciate my teachers more than ever now respond to countless essays by students and most of the time within the day aswell. Also it's kinda cute how they organised a good luck for trials BBQ yesterday hehe music 
and teacher/principle supported us by wearing our clAss of 2012 jerseys.Small things are most meaningful. Don't know why I was so calm this morning, but the stress and nerves are beginning to hit home now, just a bit of blogging to calm myself down ahah.

What are you doing in my hood loser? Gtfo Ahaha

Do Olympics finish after the 15th? They better not... I won't really be able to enjoy them until then:(
Modern tomorrow, time management Daniel time management, write fast! Jia youu everyone let's try break into top 10, we can do it 2012 cohort!!  (: oh yeah and the return of holding in pee during 3 hour exams :( the paaiiiin every second is vital. And the return of negative thoughts after exam, after EVERY exam I always hAve "should've done that could've said that" mentality and makes me feel bad, sometimes I actually end up with an okay result though.
