I must become a lion hearted girl...

ready for a fight?

So tomorrow it starts, finally.
The suspense has been, and still is, near intolerable.
I know its silly to say that so far that's the worst part of the school year, seeing as thats essentially the only part of the school year so far.
But I feel... restless, and helpless, like I'm stuck in limbo waiting for something to happen and there's nothing I can do about it but wait.

Five Goals for tomorrow:
1. Be On Time (to everything)
2. Do not hyperventilate
3. Do not scream or cry at any point
4. Do not forget anything
5. Do not instantly hate our new homegroup teacher.

Please no-one point out that some of these are highly unlikely...

Things I'm not looking forward to:
1. The performing arts being screwed to hell
2. Meeting our new homegroup teacher
3. Carrying a school bag on my sunburn
4. Facing up to the fact that this is actually real.
5. Getting up in time.


Wanna know something interesting?
Number four (the second number four) is by far the most difficult to do.
We have been talking about this year for SUCH a long time, a huuuugely long time.
One of those things that you talk and talk and talk about but you never expect it to ACTUALLY happen. One of those things that if it were up to us to make it happen, I dunno that it would.
But its not up to us is it, it's up to the passage of time, which is you know. Unforgiving and unyielding and whatnot.

So tomorrow it becomes real.
yay?


PS Dear Fitzy, HAPPINESS IS NOT A CLEAN CAR

We should be living like we lived that summer...

Okay, so its 2010.

so far '2010' is odd to write by hand, but good to type.

Hmm, highs and lows already lol.

First things of this year...

First Movie: The Young Victoria

First TV Show: Malcolm in the Middle

First Song: Woke up with 'Anyone else' in my head, but the first song I heard for real was 'New Years Song' by Josh Pyke

First Food: Nutella on Toast

First Drink: Non-Alchoholic Champagne

First Hug: Leisha

First Mistake: Spilling Non-Alchoholic Champagne on the floor after insisting 'No, its not gonna fizz up, I haven't shaken it!!'

First Word: Happy, followed by New and Year, followed by 'oh shit' in reference to aforementioned bubbly drink...

First Lie: 'My parents are just at a family friends place in One Tree Hill, staying the night'

First Blog Entry: This one :)

First Cool Idea: a story about kids in the old windsor movie theatre.

And the other important thing to cover?

Resolutions of course.

Now, seeing as its year 12 coming up, I'm not going to aim for anything at all earth shattering.

So I've got five main aims for the coming year

1. Survive, and hopefully enjoy myself

2. TER of 85 or higher

3. To always have time for the things that matter: faith, family, friends, freedom (I couldn't help but alliterate that one lol)

4. Grow wiser, smarter, gentler, stronger, kinder, braver and more passionate, not just older (taller would be nice too, but I want these aims to be realistic.

5. To be able to look back on this year and be proud of my hard work, the results of it, the memories made and the lessons learnt from the mistakes that I am no doubt going to inflict upon myself.
