Goodbye for now, but not forever.

Exactly a week ago, I graduated from high school. It was the end of 13 years of school life that I had come to enjoy, dislike, regret, cherish and love. Over the years, I've heard many people complain about how much they hated school, but I never really did understand why. I thought it was weird that I liked school, because not many people around me did (especially in primary hahahaha). However, as our last term, months, weeks, days, and finally hours came to an end at school, I'm sure many of us realised how much school has really shaped everyone. We've all learned to listen, put up with others, chat discuss, but I guess the greatest lesson that I've learnt is... 

To always make the best of your situation.

Perhaps I may not have always followed that rule (I probably didn't even know I had that rule, seeing as I just made it up...), but as far as I can recall, I've always tried to make light of situations instead of getting mad or upset. School has had its fair shares of tantrums and tears, but there will always be a huge bank of memories that I can call upon to brighten any of my days.

I remember on my first day, sitting in the school hall, and (vaguely) listening to my Principal and Year Advisor speak out to the sea of young peeps like me. I do remember the whole "Your year is one-in-a-hundred years, because your school year corresponds to the year you are in!", but I also remember not actually getting that... I thought it would be one-in-a-thousand, because we had the whole millenium thing going on too! *derp*

Later, I'd meet my Peer Support leaders and the other girls in my group (which I don't remember doing), and we'd have our introductions. We made name tags, and did the whole "Put a (nice) adjective that starts with the first letter of your first name in front of your name so we know who you are!", and I remember saying that I couldn't think of anything more creative than "cute" or "cool". Like actually. My Peer Support leaders were awesome and smart, and they thought of an adjective for me! Yay! +100 points for anyone who can guess/remember it! ;D

My first friend was probably De Yi, who's grown to be an incredibly beautiful and mature girl/woman, and still a dear friend of mine. Although we haven't had classes together for a while ('cept for Maths, which we both luv 5eva!!), I have always felt comfortable striking up a conversation whenever we could. Which is always great fun when you're both rushing in opposite directions down a packed corridor. 

My second friend was Melon, who was known as Emilyn back in Year 7, and "Entertaining Emilyn" in our Peer Support group. I thought that was pretty cool, no joke. :D Anyway, as you'd know, Melon was, and still is one of my bestest-est-est-est-est friends at St G (one "-est" for every year that I've known her!)

Hahaha, one of the things I clearly remember was De Yi and I getting ridiculously lost after recess trying to find our Peer Support group. It was so bad that we couldn't even locate where we were on our handy-dandy school map!!!!! I don't even know how we did that, considering that our school is not very big at all. Then again, the Peer Support leaders chose a seemingly obscure spot to park our group - it was away from the main quads, classrooms, and yeah. No room name!! (For those who are interested/care, we were sat on the grass outside the library, which is currently not grass, and roped off in the hopes that grass will eventually grow back... which will never happen. ^_^)

That may not have been our exact path...
but it was probably pretty close!!

While De Yi and I were wandering around the school trying to find our way back, the leaders had sent out a search party to look for the two of us! We eventually made it back to the group, only to be told that they were out looking for us... I think we were gone for at least 15 minutes or something HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Eeeeeyup. That was pretty embarrassing. I can only hope this doesn't happen at uni...

~~~~~

Speaking of uni, today, being the 28th of September, was also the day that UAC applications closed. I spent some time today going over my choices, and all of my applications. Reading over my responses to questions like "Describe how awesome you are." and "What makes you the best leader in the history of the world?" have made me realise that leaving school is just the end of one chapter of my life. According to most people I've talked to (which isn't many), Uni is actually pretty cool, what with all the freedom of choosing your classes and stuff.

I'm still going to miss high school though. That was da bomb diggity. Especially Year 11/12 (when I got awesome ^^").

Lolololololol, who am I kidding, I'm still your "average" kid here. :P

Anyway. I don't know what to do with the rest of this post. I actually meant to post much earlier than now, but since the HSC is quickly catching up on me, I may not get the opportunity to write about them... :/

Okay, my next post shall be a very brief/skimming overview thing of all the average things I've done since August. Cool? Cool.

But you'll have to wait for that post. Let me know if there's anything I should do before the HSC/Year 12 actually ends... besides study. I know that much. :P

And hey, maybe this is a good time to relive some Year 7-ey memories... If you'd like a (nice) adjective starting with the first letter of your name, then comment! Or let me know somehow. Whatever floats your boat. This will basically be my one-word-summary of my feelings towards YOU, dear reader! ^_^
Feel free to share your Year 7 stories, too! The world can never have enough New-Year-7 stories! :D

Okay, that's enough proCrASStinating. hurrhurrhurr. Sorry about the wordy and ramble-y post, but yeah... I didn't know what else to say. :L

But basically, thank you to anyone who has ever smiled, chatted and laughed with me. Even if I didn't really get to know you all that well, if you'd still like to, I'd be more than happy to meet up with you (after slaying the monster known as the HSC). But really. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. I love you guys. <3
Up and out! Cass xx

Group! And Raiyan :L

Group + company heading out for lunch/dinner lunner!

Have ALL the parties!

Hi everypony! 


"It's been a while" –––> understatement of the year.


Well, I hope y'all have been fine - I know for a fact that I haven't slept at a decent hour (ie. before 12) for the past 3 months or so... Stupid HSC >_>


But that's okay! It hasn't stopped me from having HEAPLOADS of fun (although it should have :P)


Since my last update, quite a few pretty big things have happened...

1. Music Camp
2. *Somepony's* birthday... and party.
3. Cake - rainbow cake AND gifs of said cake...

And a REALLY TRIPPY VERSION OF THE SAME CAKE:

~~~~~

Now that I've neglected to finish this post for two and a half weeks, I've figured out the best way to get you all up to speed with my life (cause that's what you're here for, right?!?!?!)
What's this "best way", you ask?
Well of course, in true HSC spirit, this update will be in one sentence dot points, like all the notes I have for my subjects yaeh.

Cass's Average Adventures! [Part 2]

Happy 50th post!! Wait. Am I congratulating myself, or you guys for still reading my blog...?


Anyway, before I get into the thick of my blog, I have only one thing to say: 

I hate buses. Again.

But before I get to that adventure, I've got one thing to share with you guys...

ADVENTURE THREE: FREE KITKATS

Yes, this is legit.

How?

1. Like the 7Eleven Facebook page wit yo Facebook account. Sorry to those who don't have Facebook... I don't think I can send 
2. Go to the Free KitKat app (Aren't I nice, providing all of the links? :P)
3. Voila! Free KitKat for you and whichever friends you feel like gifting some yummyness to :D

Oh, I guess you have to rock up to a 7Eleven, too... mebbeh. :P

Proof! Sadly, I was a bit too much of a chicken to get a
proper shot, let alone luvo in front of the store!! :P

~~~~~

ADVENTURE FOUR: CATCHING A BUS IN THE CITY

*shiver* Today was not my first bad scarring experience with Sydney buses... However, that doesn't mean that this was any less worse... if that even made sense. See, this experience has left me grammatically traumatised!! D:

My trip mission was simple: Get from Kingsford to St Vincent's Private Hospital, Darlinghurst. All I needed to do was to catch a bus. Just one bus. How hard could it be?

When I got off that bus, I just had to walk down the road to the hospital. How hard could it be? It was to be a 450 metre, 5 minute walk.

But guess what? Somehow, I can turn the simplest of trips into a freaking one-hour long adventure. LOL. But seriously. It took me an hour after getting off the bus for to get to the hospital. ONE HOUR. INSTEAD OF 5 MINUTES. *raaaaage*


I got off a couple of stops too late, not knowing that I had missed both of the stops on Oxford Street. Luckily, my mum told me earlier that if I went past Hyde Park that I would have missed my stop... After realising that we were going past Hyde Park, I got off ASAP. Walking back to where I came from, I passed the 7Eleven mentioned in the above Adventure :D 


I decided to walk down Elizabeth Street, thinking that the hospital was actually pretty close by, and on this side of Oxford Street, but noooooo, I had no idea where I was LOL. I called my mum, who also happened to be pretty lost about it too... When I reached Wentworth Ave, she told me I was going the wrong way and for me to go back toward Elizabeth Street. After receiving further instructions, I found a city map (THANK YOU, SYDNEY CITY COUNCIL!) and finally got an idea of where I was meant to go. Besides that though, it was a lovely Sydney day to be out and about :D (but sorry, no photos ><)

Goddamn. At least I know where to go now...

For those lazy efficient and wise people, to cut a one-hour long story short, 
a) I had no idea where to get off, 
b) I had very little/no idea how to get to the hospital, 
c) I got a free KitKat! :D


Despite this minor setback, my little misadventure still had some pretty awesome parts to it :D


1. On the bus, there was a few girls sitting near me, chatting. They apparently "hadn't seen any of their friends from group these whole holidays" (which is kinda like me, now that I think about it...). Upon hearing this, I immediately assumed they were in Year 12. I think I'm correct... :P Some other things to note about her/them

• Someone does legal, 3U maths and plays the piano for Music! Woo!
• Someone has been "sitting on [her] ass for the past week reblogging pictures of [some handsome guy].
• Someone has watched two seasons of Sherlock recently, and was asking if there were any more eps...
• Someone also mentioned Doctor Who...

I'm sure there was more interesting stuff they said, but I was kinda worrying about my impending doom... :L But hey! It's nice to hear there are awesome kids out there, not too different from some of us... *coughLilianAnnieandBay* :P


2. When I was waiting at a traffic light to cross the road, I heard someone say that they actually lived in my suburb. That may not sound very exciting to you, but for someone who is used to saying that they live in the suburb next door which happens to be half a gajillion times bigger than their own, that's kinda epic. Also funnily enough, that guy didn't say "habibi" or "LEK SHUUU, ULEEEHHH". :P


3. Okay, if the other bits of news didn't get you excited, this should...

So, I saw this brony...

WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! /)^3^(\

But seriously, I saw an actual brony. Like, a 20-something year old guy, with a Pony t-shirt!! I almost died from shock. Here, I made a ragecomic just to show you, because words cannot express.

True story.

But yeah, seriously. This guy was walking and looking ahead - I literally just stopped and kinda stared at him. I'm too much of a chicken (Scoo-scoo-scootaloo~) to actually be all like "OMGAH BRONIES WOOOOOOO!" up in his grill, so I thought that if he looked at me, I'd be like "You're sah awesome! :'D", but nooooooooooo, he didn't. :( Maybe it was the fact he didn't look all too happy walking with some other non-brony man, or something else... Oh well. Now I just want a Pony shirt! Or at least something more glaringly obvious than my mood pony necklace... :/ Someday, I WILL HAVE MY PONIES. >:D

~~~~~

That's about all for today! Enjoy the last scraps of the holidays - there are still shows to watch (ROYAL PONY WEDDING FTW), pictures to reblog, fandoms to... fan with, homework to do, and more adventures to be had! 

Don't forget to be awesome! Cass :D

Benny wanted me to tell you that he loves you! :P

There's basically two parts to this blog post! Stick around for the awesome-person part! I bet you're super curious to know who it is this time ;)

~~~~~

Hellooooooo! I have returned, only slightly more tanned and with a lovely bunch of photos and memories of the Gold Coast. Again. Hahahahaha!


This time, though, I'm not going to write several posts about it, cause that would be slightly tedious (for both you and I), and not to mention, ultimately unfinished... oops. Have some photos, though!

Cass's Average Adventures! [Part 1]

I told you I'd be back soon. :P


Anyways. I realised today or yesterday or someday in the recent past that I'm going to totally miss high school. Especially Year 12. And mainly the parts where I wasn't at school... hehehe ;)

So yeah. I've decided to start a little series here, tentatively entitled:

Cass's Average Adventures!: for those who have
no inhibitions from awesomeness.

Just putting it out there right now, I'm open to any suggestions you lot may throw at me - the more ridiculous, the better the chances of me declining! I will try to do as much as I can without getting suspended from school or ending up in prison or whatever... (Y)

Okay, enough chatter, here we go!

ADVENTURE ONE: DANCE DARES

Last Wednesday, our school and our brother school (lelz) had the annual interschool dance/disco/club/slutfest/fun time. I think that was also the day that I realised that I'm probably a lesbian... or lacking any hormones in my body. LOL. Anywho, a bunch of us had seen Ellen's Dance Dares (if you don't know what I'm on about, go Youtube it now!), and we figured that a dark, crowded dance hall would be the best place to dance behind unsuspecting victims! Yay!

I guess it doesn't help when sometimes we are the unsuspecting victims... oh memories... o____o"

Anyway. Yes, so Dance Dares! Hehehehe. If you're going to do one thing this weekend, make it a Dance Dare! The funnier/more original/strange, the better! Tell me how it went, too - I'd love to know how you went :P

~~~~~

ADVENTURE TWO: FREE BOOST FOR BUNNIES

One of my more outrageously ridiculously stupid adventures, Shazza and I set out (in school hours) to our local actual shopping centre to get a free Boost!

The catch? You must dress as a bunny (ears, whiskers and a tail) in order to claim a free drink.

Now, I guess you "normal" people would have immediately thought: "Hey, that's really weird, I'm not going to go look like a fool!" and then dismiss the idea of walking around a shopping centre looking like a rabbit.

However, as average as I may be, that doesn't make me normal... Quite literally, my first thoughts were:
"OMG THAT'S HILARIOUS I'M GOING TO DO IT."

My next thoughts were: "Wait... I don't have bunny ears, nor whiskers, and nor a tail."

...

No problems. I ended up buying another set anyway HAHAHAHAHA. But let's cut to the chase.

Yes. Free Boost. WIN PIGEON!
And Shmazza, you look so adorable in this photo that
I can't help but to share it EVERYWHERE. :D

Teehee. :3

On the way back to school, we kept our bunny ears on (Shazza was fully aware of the complete irony of the situation...), and halfway out of the shopping centre, we decided to count how many weird looks we were getting. We basically just counted. Literally.

~~~~~

So yeah! Those are my two latest adventures. Feel free to comment on how silly I look/sound, to suggest something for me to do, or whatever it is you guys think is "cool".

I'm also open to suggestions to what I should actually call this... "segment". I really couldn't think of anything else. :P

Also, just a heads up, I'm going to the Gold Coast for the Easter break! Again! LOL. Cause you know, I actually went to the Gold Coast for last year's Easter break, too. LOL.

Also, my one year anniversary of the blog is coming up in a few days! Yay! However, I'm not going to have access to a computer/interwebs on the 8th... T_____T Oh well! I promise to post again soon! 


In the meantime, stay safe, don't do drugs, and have a lovely Easter break! Love, Cass <3

It's a beautiful day!

And yet our swimming carnival was cancelled. :(


"The swimming carnival cancelled?!" I hear you exclaim. Why yes. My cohorts and I have heard this three times prior to today, so it wasn't so much of a shock to us. That's right. We've only had 2 out of 6 swimming carnivals in our whole school life. The weather gods hate us. >:(


DOESN'T MATTER. They'll see what they've done, and be all *sadfais*, and they'll let us have our athletics carnival and Walkathon in peace! Yeah! :D


So if it was cancelled, what did I do for the whole day? Well, being a lucky little Year 12, we had roll call, and then proceeded to be lost. Even the teachers weren't very helpful. But anyways, we ended up meeting in the Year 11 quad (cause even though we're not Year 11, we run this place.) and the deputy basically told us to have "private study" either at school or at home. So home I went.


To Wa Wa's home, that is. >:D


Context: Since we're in Year 12, we usually get to dress up with silly costumes at the Swimming Carnival. Despite the cancellation, a few people still brought their costumes to school - why let them go to waste? I certainly didn't...

Yes, that is a public train station.
No, we are not ashamed.
Nor are we crazy... -ier than the average person.

It wasn't just that one isolated incident that we wore these masks, either... Oh no. We were going to show the world what we jolly girls are made of, one snorkel at a time.

LOL. We definitely weren't expecting
this shop to pop up... LOL.

(THIS IS WHAT YOU GUYS MISSED OUT ON. YEAH, FEEL BAD FOR NOT GOING TO SCHOOL.)


Anywho. After stopping at the new BEST CAKE SHOP IN THE WORLD and getting some sugar, we went to WaWa's place. And so the hilarity ensued...


To sum it up...
We like: cake, potatoes, homework... children's shows, chilli salt + grapefruit/pomelos, noughts and crosses, old newspapers, trains, unread (and still brand new) books, and The Producers! Yay!


And pigeons. Possibly in that order. *heil!*

~~~~~

Edit: This is for you, Wa Wa.

The idiots guide to playing Noughts and Crosses - crazy hardcore style!

1. Get some sort of fruit. Preferrably grapefruit or pomelo, cause that's nice with the next thing.
2. Get chilli salt! (Grind [hot] chillies into some salt. The hotter the better, and the more seeds, even more better. :D)
3. "Evenly" distribute the salt/chilli mixture in a plate/bowl, spreading and flattening it nicely.
4. Noughts and crosses - you know the drill.

BUT, there's a twist: do you play to win, or play to kill? Either way, good fun! :D 

[I got the pointy end of the stick - won 2 games, but died in them both. LOL.]

~~~~~

All in all, despite the minor setbacks of yet another cancelled Swimming Carnival, it's still possible to have a great time with (typically) swimming gear, some great friends, and a little bit of imagination... and awesome people in white vans. LOL.




Did you have an epic Swimming Carnival costume planned? What was it?, or what would it have been, if you were more bothered? Did you see us on the way home? What would you do if you saw a couple of schoolgirls "snorkeling" on a major road? I'd love to know! :D

Gong hei fat choi, mate!

So I was going to post something on Monday (Chinese New Year), but then procrastinated It's still technically Chinese New Year (seeing as it lasts for 15 days), and Australia Day was only two three days ago, okay?


And I was also going to write something to commemorate the last day of our holidays - which is actually my last day of Summer holidays ever... But yeah. LOL. Hehehe... ^^"

*a week later*

Goshdarnit, I need to stop doing that! >:(

So now Australia day was 6 days ago... but it's still Chinese New Year! :D


Now where do I begin...?


1. Chinese New Year
So Chinese New Year was on last Monday, the 23rd. Since this is Australia, there's no public holiday, unlike many Asian countries where they (apparently) have a whole week off. Anywho, our parents both took days off, and we went to celebrate the new year first with a trip to the optometrist! Yay! That was all good, even though we were in there for almost an hour LOL (he was quite a chatty fellow). After that, hung around the city for a bit, and watch le traditional Lion Dancing yay! We were at Market City (basically Chinatown) and yeah. It wasn't actually lion dancing... It was lion pole dancing jumping! HAHAHAHA!

Dat ass. LOL

Ohai dere, scroll. 8D

"I can see everything!"
(loljk I don't know what that says...)

Le competitors... We waited over half an
hour for that... after the first ones (above).

~~~~~

2. Australia Day
Okay, so you might have guessed it, but I'm not exactly what foreigners would think of when you say "Australian". But that doesn't mean we don't care!


Actually, the best part of Australia Day is the public holiday that comes with it... LOL.


And also free tattoos, apparently. 


We went to Officeworks the day before A.D, and they gave us a bunch of Australian Flag tattoos. Ten, to be exact. So we being the creative and bored individuals we were, my sister and I decided to put a flag on each cheek before we went to bed, with the hopes that someone (preferably a parent) would see us in the morning and freak out. :D


Of course, that didn't happen, but oh well. We did get one remark from my mum; something along the lines of "You crazy girls"... Like they say, mother knows best. :P


Unfortunately though, I didn't think to take a photo... so yeah. Sorry! You can just imagine it :D

~~~~~

3. The Holidays D:
It's Wednesday now, and I've had three days of school. Needless to say, the holidays are, and will always be sorely missed, but even more so as we, Year 12 2012, (continue to) embark on our epic journey towards the HSC. New timetables, new victims kids at school, new goals and new attitudes should start coming into effect soon, I guess. 


Which reminds me. The Cinnamon Challenge. Let's just say that anyone who can do it without choking/crying/swearing/dying will have my eternal respect. Which so far, is only one person. What is this?!, I hear you exclaim. Well, never fear! Here is your very own guide to The Cinnamon Challenge, by yours truly.

The Cinnamon Challenge

1. Acquire death powder cinnamon. (Not the cinnamon sugar - that's too yummy.) 
2. Find a spoon. A clean one, if possible.
3. Pour cinnamon onto spoon. There should be a small hill on said spoon, otherwise you're a wuss it doesn't count.
4. Put the spoon/cinnamon in your mouth, and take the spoon out. DON'T SWALLOW. Yet. Hold it for 10 seconds.
5. Once your 10 seconds is up, try to swallow that shit cinnamon. 

Note: It's okay to spit it out. Seriously. I'd probably get a drink or something, too. ^^"

Congratulations! :D If you actually did this, I applaud you. No. I'd actually physically brohoof you, cause you're that awesome. (And a bit of an idiot...).

But it's okay! I've done it! I think I snorted half of the cinnamon out of my nose when I coughed... But at least it looked cool! I quote my friends:

"Cass is a dragon!" - various people

And of course we got weird looks from the Year 7s... on their very first day of high school... But one day, they'll look back on it, and think: "Just wtf really happened?!" But in their hearts, they'll know it was awesome. :D 

~~~~~

So there we go! I'm really, really, really sorry about this super duper irregular/infrequent blogging :(


Also, Happy Birthday Anqid! Here's your picture :D

Just look at that creepy smile! :D
I kid, I kid, you know we all love you ^3^

Hehehe. Until next time, so long, farewell! If there's ever something awesome you want to do, please do it! Then tell me about it! Are you going to do the cinnamon challenge? Make sure you record it! Or at least do it with some friends, so your suffering effort won't go to waste :P


And as always, don't forget to be awesome! AJ, out!

Toodaloo, mother... truckers.

Haha, see what I did there? :L


Anywho. It's basically the end of 2011. Well, there's no better time to say it, is there? LOL. It's the end of this year, and probably time to turn over a new leaf... Anyone have any resolutions to share? :D


I'm not much of a resolution planner... I think. I just never did it. I don't really have enough motivation/gullibility to get myself to do things. Seriously. Not good. But I guess if I write them here, I won't be the only one to know what I've not done... wut. o__o


Aaaaanyways. Here's my resolution*! 
*(may or may not be subject to change...)

• Study. Like, for real.
• Don't piss people off.
• Don't kill anyone, in any way.
• Actually stick with the things I plan to do. Like this resolution, to begin with.
• Blog at least once a month. (I can't believe I skipped November... LOL.)
• Hopefully not become a literal fat slob. I've heard that the average (haha) weight mass gain during the final HSC year is 2-6kgs or something. LOL.
• Don't go batshit crazy. (Although I can already see it happening...)

and last but not least...

• Don't forget to be awesome! :D

My sister and I, casually being awesome. :D

That applies to everyone. Yay! *brohoof* (^D^)/)

~~~~~

Well. I think I'm going out to see the fireworks tonight, so I'll add some photos as soon as I can. :D

~~~~~

Aww man. Now that it's (going to be) 2012, I'll have to get used to writing '12 instead of '11... Dammit.


Yeah. That's basically all I wanted to say. Out with the old, and in with the new - it's time to refocus our mind on what matters most, whatever that may mean. Best of luck for the new year - we're gonna SMASH it! :D


Cass xx

Screw Christmas...

HAPPY BOXING DAY!!!


Haha. Don't screw Christmas, but don't forget poor old Boxing Day either! :P


Best wishes for the holidays season - Don't party too hard, otherwise you won't be able to top it on New Year's Eve! :P

~~~~~

So. I got my hands on my cousin's Canon EOS 7D, and so I naturally, I took a kajillion photos with it. Yay! Have some photos! :D


DOUBLE RAINBOW - 19/12/11

Lucky bastards... :P

The Average Christmas...
See what I did there? XD

Yay, decorations! :D

The outside of the house. Try not to stalk me, despite
how badly you may have wanted to.

I like this photo. ^^

YAY BOKEH!!!!! 8D

Tree. And presents. That's most of the presents...
LOL, we call ourselves 'The Wong Tribe'.

I guess that's about it. Just wanted to wish you all a safe and happy holiday period ^^. As everyone says, be grateful for what you have, be hopeful for the future, and don't take things for granted! 

Merry Christmas and Happy Boxing Day! - Cass xx

Year 12?! D:

Okay, now that school's started, the workload has picked up (well duh). Although it wasn't much last week, I'm sure we're going to be struggling by the end of this one. Why? Because of two four little words.

The Higher School Certificate.

aihflajfuejf;asihfsdfladhfkusgujfkhg life. >:(


Okay. I know it has barely started, and I know how chillaxed I am most of the time (true story!). But just you wait... Give me a couple of months, maybe after our first exam period or something and oh my god, I'll probably be having some sort of breakdown. Imagine more tears than at today's lunch. MOOOOOOOOREEE!! D:

~~~~~

So, what's new pussycat? (Woaaah, woo-oaahh woaaah, oh ohhhhh~)


*cough* Anywho. I GOT MY LICENSE! WOOOOOO! (Yes, I look like a stoner in my picture. No, I'm not uploading it onto the blog.)


I got it... on the 30th of September... which is just over 2 weeks ago lol. It's been pretty fun... kinda. Okay, more stressful than fun at most times. Get this - my dad stresses me out more than I do. He keeps yelling at me :(. It does not help for an adult (although fully licensed and legally allowed to teach you) to be constantly yelling at you, the fledgling bird that needs guidance in order to fly without constantly hitting trees and stuff. Especially when your already short/limited attention span is struggling under the pressures of:

• staying on the road
• not going over the speed limit
• not crashing into other cars
• not running over kerbs
• not running over people
• not accelerating/braking too hard
• not panicking!! (very important! :L)

and finally...

• not punching said parent in the face while driving.

It is hard. And that segment wasn't even meant to be a rant. I just found it bloody annoying and I thought I might share this with you guys... Moral of the story: Make sure your instructor doesn't have a temper as short as one of Willy's Oompa-loompas.

Lulz.

Aaaaaaand I couldn't resist putting this one in... How could you?! :L

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

~~~~~

School's started. I'm totally looking forward for the next week or so. Why?

     a) FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! :D

     b) MORE FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! :D :D :D

     c) ZOMG, no more Extension Maths!! Weeeeeeeeeee!!~

I'm definitely more excited than I really should be... but the average person would be, right? :D

Which reminds me. Year 12s have a long standing tradition (and I'm sure it's for pretty much every school in the universe) for Year 12 Jerseys! Yay! We can get a customisable phrase at the back of it! Yay! My only problem is that I'm so damn average that I actually don't know what to put on it. Seriously. So I need your help. 

Please, please, please leave some suggestions for me. If you say 'Average', I will hunt you down and run you over with the car. Cause I can. I don't have many suggestions at the moment... Make the obvious one and you die. All suggestions are welcome! :D

One last parting note: Do you play Neopets? I KNOW YOU DO, STOP HIDING.

Add me? :D I'm cassandratam123 :D (Shut up, I made that account six years ago.)

If you want more friends, I'd suggest leaving your username as a comment below... Free advertising yay! :D

And now I bid you farewell. There are no guarantees as to when my next post will be... You'll just have to wait and see, won't you? :P

Good luck to the Year 12s sitting their HSC exams. I'd laugh, but I know that will be us in a year D: Oh dear... Besides, if you are in Year 12, GO STUDY!!! D:

You heard me. Comments and suggestions pl0x. By the way, check out the chat box on the side! Pretty sweet, eh? :D

Miss me?

Sorry about the uber long period of silence... I know you're all dying for me to post something. :P




So. How have you been? Yes, I realise I probably won't get an answer, but hey! no harm done... I think. Since you asked so nicely, I'll tell you about a few things that have happened these past few days weeks that I haven't been posting. [Has it really been that long? *counts* 13 days... Oops. :3]


At school, we've been getting all of our tests and things back lately. In the past few weeks. Whatever. I'm one of those people who want their tests results back, not because I'm super confident that I'll ace the test, but more because I want to see my mark... [duh? I just realised that was super obvious. LOL.] Anyways, I think my marks actually aren't all to bad... I think they're all in the 70s - 80s. Which is not bad, but not good either. It's mostly average. LOL. Everything except for Ancient History, which I seem to be doing well at (o_O), and Extension Math, which I'm kinda failing... >_>. So yeah. We also got our subject selection forms, so that something else I need to constantly think about, for if I screw up, my life is over. Yes. /end melodrama/

On a lighter note, I've recently gotten into/addicted to this app on my iPhone - Instagram. It's a photosharing app - you take/upload photos, make them pretty with cool filters, and then post them to your profile-y thing. I think it's a bit like Twitter... except I don't have one. Lol, my friend saw my feed and thought it was Twitter. Anyways, it's a free app, and it's really good, so I suggest you get it. :D If you do, add meh! My username is 'cassanderawr'. I take photos of the sky most of the time. ^^ Here, have a picture!

Original - pretty :)

Instagram'd - OMGWTFBBQTHAT'SSOEPICANDCOLOURFULANDAWESOME!!!!

I told you so. :D

On Thursday, I had chem. We did a prac. It involved various substances... like sugar. And salt. And pencil leads. And bits of iodine. Yay! So we got gloves.


Now, what do you think a bunch of 16yo girls are going to do with said gloves? Fill them with water, of course!!

Hi. I'm Turtle, the (kinda awkward) dinosaur! Rawrr~

Yes. He survived with me for about 3 periods until he started leaking, so I had to throw him out sacrifice him gracefully before he bust his guts over me and my stuff. LOL. RIP Turtle - you are forever in my heart <3

Today, I've spent the most part of the day cleaning out several shelves in our study in order to get rid of it so it can be replaced (in time) by some other one. I think. Okay, all you need to know is that I've been going through piles and piles of stuff. 


I am such a hoarder. It's kinda weird... Anyone who knows me well enough would know that I tend to keep things. Usually for a later time. This happens a lot with food. LOL. So yeah. Being the hoarder I am, I found soooooo many things that most people probably wouldn't have. For example, I have Christmas cards (still in their envelopes and everything) from 2008. I even found one from 2006. I also found various school reports/bits of work dating from... 2005. It's kinda funny... I was kinda dumb in Year 5. LOL. Look at me now!: nothing's changed. LOL :P.


As well as food and... work... I also tend to stash away money. I think I uncovered about $100 worth of notes floating around... Hey! at least it's useful... :P

One last thing: I'd just like to make a shout out to my dearest friend Lilian who was recently chosen as one of 12 state candidates for the Sydney Morning Herald Young Writer of the Year!! Woohoo~! She's put a lot of effort into writing these past few years (or something like that), and it's great to see that all of her work has finally paid off. Congratulations again, and good luck for the finals! I know you'll make it with that word limit intact! :P

That's it for today! Until I have something more worthy of your dwindling attention span, stay safe and enjoy life! ^^
