Ness's Journal Thing (The Story of a Real Girl)

Saturday, 15 November 2003


I was just woken-up a few mintues ago by my father. It's 6:50 am, Saturday. I've been heaps tired this week. I was actually looking forward to getting to sleep-in. But no, as I found out last night when I was forced to cancel a shopping trip with my friends, my mother is making me attend some award ceromony which is in the city at 9:00 this morning. Yay for me..... I seriously don't see why I have to go, ths award not that big of a deal. It's the Duke OF Edinburgh Gold Award, anyone who has enough time on their hands can get it. I suppose my brother doesn't get very many awards............He's not exactly a 'high acheiver'. Still, he doesn't even like me so I don't see why I hav to come.
Also, for some reason unknown to me, I had to be woken up at this time, whereas my brother, who is receiving the award, is still asleep. not fair.
I guess am I being selfish, and I should probably go get ready and dress up, then sit in the crowd like a good girl while hundreds of people are individually announced and then handed their award, but frankly, who could be bothered?

By the way, about my exams, I've been getting my results back. For advanced maths I got 66%. I know, pretty shocking. Especially when your someone that's used to getting in the 90%'s even when it's your dodgy subject.Our class average was 70%. I don't think I've ever been below the average in my life. I have no idea why my marks have dropped so much.
On the other hand, I dot 94% in science, topping the year! So that's pretty cool, considering it was way way way above our class average (and it's an advanced class). I also topped drama with 59/60.
As for english..........well, I got 85%. I haven't deceided if I've done okay with that yet, because I don't know how everyone else when. For example, last year I got 83% and I was so upset, it turns out that I had actually topped the year........
I know this year I haven't done that well, but maybe, maybe i was close.
Anyway, I probably should go get going now

Okay, so exams are over.
Reading back on that last post I do seem a little melodramatic, lol.
I went okay, I guess, though I've definately failed French and geography.
Today I got to sleep in! Or to put it in the french way 'I did the greasy morning'. For a culture obcessed with the all the luxuries of life, I don't know why they give this act such a horrible name. Sleeping in is sheer bliss. You end up waking, feeling refreshed and active, as opposed to feeling 'tres fatiguee' and in deperate need of a caffine hit.

Morning all!
It's precisely 7:19 AM, Tuesday morning and I almost have a garuanteed failure for my exams:). I haven't been able to study at all, I swear, I'm doomed.
You see, with end of year exams, it's not how much you've learnt, but how much you can teach yourself in those last few days where everyone crams into their head as many ramdom facts from the textbook as they can. Of course, cramming takes time, and time is something that I really don't seem to have lately. It's okay for today, I've only got my music exam, it doesn't really matter how I do in that, and I'll probably pass anyway. But the real problem is tomorrow, what kind of dumbarse comes up with the idea of putting Maths, Geography, AND french all into the one day! I'm gonna die!!!
and I've barely studied any of them. Not to mention that tonight, I'm suppossed to be tutoring Bronte and Rebecca for maths, so I have even less time :(.
Omce again, I.......am..........going.......to........die.
and I'm only in year nine! (australian years).

Just another note, Yesterday we were studying in English, and Mrs Cummerford gave us some poems to analyse. The poems were both about death. I don't know why but we were taking it pretty lightly, making jokes and just.....well, just being normal people. I was doing it to, for example, at one time Natalie asked why people saw death as a cold thing, so I replied across the room to her
"Think about it Nat, a dead corspe isn't the most warm and lively thing now, is it?"
and so forth. It was only a few minutes after that I remembered Clare, who's in our class.
Her father died a few years ago from cancer. If something like that happened to me I probably wouldn't come out of my room for ten years, but Clare's faced it really well, and has been really strong. When I looked over at her, you could tell that she was quite upset.
It would have been the poems that affected her, but I'm sure all our comments wouldn't have helped. I shut up immediantely. I feel so sorry for her, she's so brave, and she's one of the few people that you meet who are genuinly nice.
It's funny how things like that can affect you though. The peoms in themselves aren't that emotional, but when you experianced what they're talking about, when you've felt the greif that they're describing, it opens up a portal in your mind, and brings back all those emotions that you first felt when you lost the person.

I deceided to change the title of my blog. It's gone from Ness's Journal Thing to Ness's Journal Thing (The Story of a Real Girl). It just sounds a bit more interesting. Maybe it will intice people to have a bit of a look at it. Though, there's not much here yet. There's a lot about me that I could write, but at the moment I'm keeping it secret. I guess it's because I've just started the blog. I'll probably spill in a few weeks. If you're reading this and you keep a blog, do you share everything with it? I was just wondering. At the moment I really just skim the surface. I'll tell you what I've been doing lately and the thoughts that are randomly going through my head at the time that I write my entry. I wonder how many people look at this? There's probably a way to tell.......hmmm.....maybe no one reads it? I guess it doesn't matter anyway, this Journal Thing is for me, no one else.
I hate how many typos I have at the moment. Typos and grammatical errors are the sort of things that really annoying me. I will go and edit them all out. But that takes time, which is something that is pretty scarce for me at the moment. But after Teusday week, once my piano and school exams are finished, I'll do it. And I'll write a huge bug entry explaining everything. including a description of what I'm like and all that other stuff. who knows, maybe I'll even share my secrets with you?
lol,This has been a pretty useless entry so far. Just a ramble of comtemplations. That's probably because I'm just useing this as a study break, to give my mind some rest. I really should get back to it soon, you know. I just can't be bothered. Procrastination, the classic trait of a teenager.

Once Again, Titles Are Annoying...
I made my stage debut last Friday night, lol. It was our school play 'War Talks...' written by our drama teacher. It was pretty fun though. I was amazed that I didn't get nervous at all. I'm normally a person that suffers dramatically from nerves. I remember in debating, people were convinceed that I had Parkisons disease because I shook so much. Our scenes went okay. On the first night we stuffed up 'Loss of Innocene'. Well, I stuffed up Loss Of Innocence. I skipped this uge bit because I said the wrong line. From then on we sort of had to improvise. WE re-arranged the script and added one or two lines to make everything fit. It worked pretty well, considering. None of the audience relised what we had done and the story line remained the same. The next scene that I was in that stuffed up was the following day (Saturday matinee) One of the girls forgot her line. As in, she completely and utterly forgot it!!! I would have come up with some improv but I couldn't because I was the last one to speak and if I did it would have looked so bad. so we were just there standing on stage for a while doing nothing. Then Hannah, the girl who forgot her line, just said something else and we quickly ended the scene. It was a disaster!(but immensely amusing).
Then, on the closing night, someone stuffed up Loss Of Innocence again (but not me this time!!!!) There was this gap (not big enough for the audience to notice though) and when I relised that one of the other girls wasn't goiong to say her line I came in with it for her. Which worked okay till Amelia said the wrong line... and then so forth so forth. I had to do a lot of improv lines but still, it all workied well. The audience found the scence very funny (the acutal scene, not our mistakes) and didn't pick up that we had stuffed up, so it all worked well.
There's so much to write about from the last three days. Such as how Mallory (a girl who I'm not really friends with) had a complete spastic about how someone didn't get this minor prop for her and she was left on stage without her chair. It didn't affect her scene at all, but when she came off she was screaming, and crying and swearing and yelling and everything else you could think of. Seriously, she was threatening to murder the props boy! I couldn't beleive it, I mean, everyone had some stuff-ups with props in their scenes. For example, in one of mine we had this huge black box accidently left on stage, right smack bang in the middle at the front. In the same scene they also forgot to turn the dress-dummy round the right way so it had it's back to the audience. Quite amusing.
Mallory ended up running away, refusing to go back on stage (which was fine cause she didn't actually have any more parts) and then when her friends tried to comfort her she ran right out to the dams at our school. It was pitch black so we couldn't do anything plus we had to go back on stage. She ended up beiong alright though. I teacher delt with it really well.
What annoyed me though was that most people ended up commending her as a way of comforting her. You know, they'de say things such as "Oh, yeah, and Mallory coped really well with any stuff-ups" or they'd bag out the porps guy, who didn't do anything wrong. What she really desevered was someone having a good scream at her and putting her back into her place.
Anyway, I'll tell you more later!

Hey all
Today I took a day off school.I had too, I have been so bloody busy!!!! I can't wait till holidays. This week I have been having late night drama rehersals nearly every 2nd day. The first performance is tonight. And then I'm going to spend all tomorrow doing the play as well. Which would be fine if my end of year exams didn't start on Monday!!!! I've go so much to study for and so little time. *sigh* And if that wasn't bad enough my piano teacher, Mr Daley, informed me that my piano exam is going to be on in Tuesday week!! That's the week after exams!!! I'm dead.
I was expecting it to be in early January, not in a fortnight. So yeah, that's why I haven't really been posting that much.
I noticed that the link to my blog has been taken off the angelfire page. Oh well, no surpirse there. It's not like I've been making that many new entries. I don't know why, but I really like the idea of having people read my diary. I suppose that's because whenever I've kept a diary (as in a book, not a blog) I've always written it as if someone else would read it. Now that's actually happening it's kinda cool. of course, now that I've got a diary that other people can actually read, I've got nothing to write about. typical.
I suppose I could go into all of my life problems and so forth, but that would take a lot of time and a lot of typing, and I don't think I've got the time for that now. Maybe after my piano exam :)

This is about the third time I've tried to create an entry over the past week, but I've always been too busy too finish it. I know, I probably should of saved it to draft or something but I couldn't be bothered.
I have had barely any free time this week. On monday, I go straight from school to I-witness ( a music group I'm in) to Tae Kwon Doe, to bed. Then on Tuesday I.....hmmm....I know I did something.....I think I might have had a drama rehersal that day. Yep, that's it. And that lasted from straight up from school to the end of the night. Then on Wednesday I had Tae Kwon Doe again and so forth so foreth. My week has been so hectic I have had no time to do school work let alone study for the exams next week. Shit shit shit shit! next week! I'm gonna die!!!!!
By the way, I got full marks for my major science project, which is pretty good considering I did it the night before:P. I think I actually have a good chance of topping the year in science, because I also got the top mark for our test as well. I suppose it all has to do with how you go in your yearly exams though.....
Last year I topped english, though I don't really have much of a chance this year, I've always been a few marks from the top (which isn't good enough) and then there was that assesment taks that I completely flunked.....I still don't see what I did wrong in that. Oh well, I'll live.
My last post is a bit pyscho, I tried to but the first bit in bold, the bit that said Live despite Life. Unfortunately, I reaaaaaaaalllllly don't get these HTML codes and I stuffed it up completely. Lol, everyone's probably been wondering why on earth I put an entire entry in bold. Hey, if anyone is actually reading this and they know how to use HTML codes, coulod you please email me or leave a comment or something explaining the basics of how to use them. Or at least explain how I can use it

Titles Are Annoying
Live Despite Life
The following is just a little quote I coined over the last few days. Life has been so hectic for me, which is why I haven't made any half decent entries for a little while, I'll be back soon. I write more then.
ta-ta

They say you learn something everyday. Today I learnt that human flesh and blenders make a painful combination. Yes, I was dumb enough to get my fingers caught in the blades of our blender. Luckily it wasn't too bad. For instance, I will be able to play the paino again, just not for a couple of weeks :)
He he he, so much for my drink I was making.

Same day as previous entry. So far today I have done nothing. yep, absolutely NOTHING! and I love it!
It's one of those warm summer days. Apparently it's meant to be 39 degrees today so you can tell that we're just entering summer. I'm happy.
I'm not one of those people who love summer and abhor everything else. In fact, if I had to chose a favourite season it would probably be winter, just think of those warm cosy turtleneck jumpers...But what I love is the change of seasons, when you get thrown something that your not used to. It makes you stop and notice the weather, and when you notice it you enjoy it. One of God's wonderful blessings for this world.
As part of my lazy hazy summer day (yes, I am quoting some old song) I've been whiling (sp?) away time on the internet doing nothing, something which I find quite amusing. Then again, if your reading this then you probably find it amusing too. While I was doing so I found this quiz. as you can see I was a 'perfect girlfriend'. Pretty dodgy quiz. According to this I don't need expensive gifts and to go out to special places. Shows how much it knows.
You're Perfect ^^
-Perfect- You're the perfect girlfriend. Which
means you're rare or that you cheated :P You're
the kind of chick that can hang out with your
boyfriend's friends and be silly. You don't
care about presents or about going to fancy
placed. Hell, just hang out. You're just happy
being around your boyfriend.


What Kind of Girlfriend Are You?
