    nahh, at least I'll have nith to help me keep company :p
    OOH OOH that reminds me. if you happen to be on fb, check out dish's dp ;]
    aww, jealous of icecream. I'd ask you to save me some, but well, that's a little fail on so many counts haha. ALSO. my sadistic parents are thinking of making me drive to nith's tomorrow morning, so I suggest you barricade yourself inside the house between 8:30 and 9, just in case.
    haha maybe it's a not-so-subtle message? ;] it doubled! yayers! :D
    x jiim
    gosh, was it that long ago? haha :p
    yeah, I rang up nith and she said uniform and lunch.
    there's nowhere to buy [cheap] lunch in darling harbour, is there?
    haha I'm going via nith's place, so if you're up at around 9am I'll wave to you x]
    eww, that's so gross D: what, did you have to?
    oohguesswhatguesswhatguesswhat?!
    I actually got somewhere with my IP! :D

    But no, I haven't read the God of Small Things, but I have heard about it, and I do plan to. It's just, at the moment I'm trying to refrain from 'reading for leisure'.. I have so much reading material at the moment, I can't get through it all!! And I should really read Hamlet XD
    But I do plan to, one day, many of my friends have read it and say it's really powerful :)

    WOW that sounds like a fantastic idea!!! !!!! That's sounds so wonderful! I'd love to read it when you're done, or later on maybe we can send each other our work and we can give each other feedback? It's great that you can draw from your personal context too, it will make your work even more empathic... And your research/knowledge will really be able to shine through... Yeah, I bet it will be amazing when you're done!!!

    :D And thanks for the friend request ^^ Do you have faceboook?

    .... Aaaaand also weaving stuff about relationships in there, most prevalent is the role of single fathers and societies expectations of them, and the impacting strain it puts upon the father/son relationship... challenging masculinity, all that stuff.

    I guess they all sound sorta disconnected concepts but the plot line I came up with does tie them all in together.. hopefully it will work. Does it sound ok? :/

    What is yours about?
    Deer
    Haha yeah I am also so scared of showing mine to my teacher! Eeeep! I've only written 500 but... D:

    My concept is... well, at the core, I'm aiming to challenge conservative perceptions of graffiti art, and promote how important it is for our cities and what a beautiful expressive outlet it can be... Basically just getting into the psyche of graffiti artists and expressing the different reasons people choose to do it. Create ruptures in the monotony... ya know. that sort of thing :p

    Then through that I'm finding paralells between the graffiti world and the corporate/business world (although obscure) that show how humans are generally all striving for the same goals, we are just looking for them in the wrong places (ie, money, when we should be being creative..... )

    Wwwwwwwwow, but you've done 6000 words already!! You have nothing to worry about !!!
    Endings are always hard for me too though, I never know how a story is going to end until I'm almost finished haha.
    But don't worry, you have 6 months to end your stories, sheesh, I am so jealous of how much you've done!!

    I was actually thinking of doing a suite of short stories too, that was my first idea... hopefully I'll be able to sustain this one for the 8000... obviously never written anything this long before...

    Welcome to Facebook | Facebook
    Cbb PMing it, it's already floating around this site somewhere else anyway.
    Yeh, I don't get how having the ability to analyse the techniques of a poem will have any relevance when I become an actuary (Fingers crossed), or an engineering.
    Haha I always randomly rep people ^^, people don't care, and if they say somthing, neg rep them haha.
    M
    Rep is awsome isn't it?
    I actually do enjoy formulating an argument but I hate the specific structure that it must take whilst writing it. I guess that's why I like maths. I'm bored, do you have fb?
    x jiim
    yess D: haha you should have seen nith's face, it was freaking hilarious xD
    shush, you'd probably get it worse, you're shorter than we are :p
    OMGSH that would be awesome! but it's got so much special effects and expensive props and setting and shit... but that would be incredible :D haha they'll probably do another repeat or something though >>
    alsoo.. what are we meant to bring on duty? I just realised I have no idea =\
    Deer
    Yeah, I actually only have one holiday assignment as such, the rest I've made for myself. I haven't even finished my notes though, which... well, I should have had those done ages ago.

    ...
    :(

    I'm doing a short story for EEII :D And... well, I'd written about 1000 words but I didn't really have a direction/plot outlined completely... And today I sat down and had a moment of enlightenment, a whole plot idea came to me so quickly, so perfectly, after I've been trying to think of one for months... Sooo it was pretty exciting, and now I'm euphoric XD Back at 0 words though,... I'm starting it soon. Tonight actually ^^

    What are you doing?
    x jiim
    Oh dayum Hash. Haha, yeps, that happens to me too >< At state camp everyone thought me and nith were 12 or something == Aww, there are plenty of people that insane around. If all else fails, there's me and lisey! [Ok, that's probably not the most comforting thought, but still].
    YES, LET'S! Gosh, only 2 months away. 23-30March O__________O wah.
    Aargh, that's terrible T_T It makes me feel so oold and out of touch and shit. But yes, we should totally be like the most awesome ushers EVER. Plus, we'd get to watch for free :D I wonder what they'll do this year..
    No work? Welcome to my life ==
    Deer
    i knoww, ahh, I procrastinate so much on everything too, because I'm disillusioned that I won't be able to do it to my normal standard, and that just makes it even worse XD

    Yr 12 is going ... quite well for me so far! Haven't done enough holiday homework though, eeep! You?
    x jiim
    Nyeerghh xP Meanie.
    They were creepy! They were big and scary and pointy and jagged! And they had freaking voodoo magic! Who the hell puts that into G rated movies anyway? They were like fully playing with blood charms and evil stuff and =\
    GOOD-TYPE CREEPY?! What is the world coming to? Gosh. But speaking of which, we need a chick flick/ romcom marathon/sleepover now :D and NO torture porn. Haha.
    Eww, routine. Alright, I want to go back to extra-curricula stuff [gosh, I feel so weird saying that] but the whole work thing? Not so much.
    FREAKING LOLOLOLOLOLOL. HAHAHAHA. Can't say I do actually. Sounds like good practice if you intend to become a cougar. Do you? ;]
    x jiim
    GOSH GO WATCH IT THEN! It's so incredibly cutee :] I don't know, kidnap your parents or something. And then make them pay for it. Hahaha xD
    OI. I resent that. There were evil creepy shadows and they were scary and... oh shutup :p Well, takes one to know one, I guess :]
    Oh, that's awesome. Vignette. Makes me think of bread. Took me three tries to spell bread. And two to spell spell. Gosh, this holiday brainfreeze is the pits.
    I know, right? Now my mum's restricted me to three minutes for all phone calls. THREE! ALL! Gah. Haha. Yeps, but I told her that I'd nearly finished the first draft, and she said I couldn't go on duty til I had so =\
    Yess omgsh! My cousin missed out on combined law by 0.15/0.05, how scary D:
    Aah school goes back in like a week. Gay.
    x jiim
    I got the message too ><

    LOL of course we can! We will survive! ...I hope. Gosh.
    Oi. It's very cruel of you to laugh at my misfortune >>. I am traumatised for life! Speaking of which, I watched the princess and the frog, and I got scared. The 5yos in the cinema didn't, but I did =S. YAY for your 4U! 6k! You're making me feel bad. And I don't even know what vignettes means D:
    God knows where drama's going. I have like 3 pages, and most of that's describing the set and stage directions, not actual dialogue =\ Haha, Soph tends to do that. She rang me up for like 80+min yesterday when I was just about to wash the dishes and my mum got so mad at me xD
    x jiim
    I want to see what chem class I'm in. I don't have flannagan this year, wah D: I don't know how I'm going to survive without all her brilliant by-the-dotpoint notes. Urgh, goodluck with your 3U =\ hopefully you'll get someone good like Bal or Webb or someone? Gosh, that would really be the killer. Fingerscrossed.
    Dearie, you always think about that sort of stuff. Haha. Dayum ;]
    Of course I did. I was procrastinating doing mine. Duh. Aah, I thought the name sounded familiar! I was like... Toledo... hmm. And the hand thing. I thought I was imagining it though ==
    x jiim
    I want to go back and get my timetable and then have another 6week holiday T_T
    I totally agree. MCH has us whipped xP I've sort of started. But I'm not even sure if it relates to belonging. It's about a man and a bird. And no, it does not involve any interspecies sex. Gosh Hash. Get your mind out of the gutter ;] Btw, I read yours. For some reason it sounds familiar o__o it was good though :]
    HSC. Omg, that's this year. I saw a 2010 hsc study guide out in the paper already and totally freaked out. Aaaargh. It's the end of the world. The sky is falling. Etc.
    I swear she is. And my father too. He freaking made me drive onto Blaxland Rd yesterday. TWICE! I don't care if there were only 3 other cars there, that road has two lanes! On each side! Gosh, that should be illegal -grumbles-
    Haha. How's your driving going?
    x jiim
    HASH!
    School starts on thurs according to my dad, if you trust him [I don't really, but I'm too lazy to check haha]. Yep, Nith's pretty much given up on it as well. Haha, maybe after the hsc when we're all there? =\ But it's so far away. AND SCHOOL'S SO SOON D:
    In other news, I think my driving instructor's trying to kill me, I really do.
