so here i go. back to this..."blogging"...thing.
it sounds funny in my mouth...
blog...
schmeh.
but i'm being weird.
must've been the siesta.
but it was all in the name of english extension 2!!!! =)
so yeah.
i'm blogging...well, i figure "this time" i'll do it for me. just because.
just because i'm feeling like an old fart and scared that my memories will one day fly out the window and all that i'll have to remind me of who i was will be my written words (in true The Notebook style).
so yeah. drama, i found, was especially good today. he was being especially receptive and, you know, i love it when people seem to like me. which is the insecurity you love to prey on most so...yeah. what's that then? a paradox? irony? whatever.
and free wasn't so bad...but he's just so moody. i don't listen for a second and suddenly there's a blue folder flying oddly close to my ear. and damn him for guilting me into borderline caring. and damn me for being so maleable for other people.
but it was all okay because he came to talk to me and i bestowed luck upon his arm. =) blah, but i still worry that i bore you and one day you'll fly out the window with all my prescious memories...but i wont forget you. because chances are that at least one of your notes will have a broken wing and be unable to migrate with the others and i will keep this one and know who you are everyday for everandeverandever !
recess was fun for me. but you're holding back. and it makes me sad that you'd hold back... but you know best. and you'll tell me in time. not wanting to push....
okay, that was a dirty, dirty lie. i want to push and prod and wheedle...but am restraining self. because i already got something that i didn't deserve (granted, i didn't exactly ask, but anyhoo ! ) so as my own personal form of reimbursement, am restraining self.
plus, it would be rude and goodness knows that good little girlies never are.
and now, not wanting to exhaust all my blogging topics in one crazy, sleepy, rambling night...will end here-ish.
i'm so preoccupied. and i love it. but i wish i was preoccupied with something else.
thinking i should start with tags. might be a little difficult without.
(and i feel i owe an explaination for the lack of names. it's the same in my journal. no more mentioning of guy's names. and once i got started, it felt silly to mention ANY names >_< i am soooo strange right now...)

I GOT A JOOOOOOOOOB!!!
*ahem*
yes, just a little excited.
now, i have yearlies going on and i suppose this could be taken as a bad thing as the excitement will most likely over-ride my study urges (not a hard thing since study urges are not the strongest force in the universe).
but no!
i was having enough trouble concentrating already due to certain...uh...stuff. and this insanely intense excitement (come on, i've been trying to get a job for like, a year and a half now!! a little half-arsed, yeah, but STILL...trying, y'know?)
where was i?
ah yes.
this insanely intense excitement has over-ridden that distracting thing that was bugging me before and now i'm back to study mode!! =)
YAY!!!
okay, the way my mind works makes no sense whatsoever but WHO CARES?!?!
good news is good news!!
i just had to tell someone and even if no one reads this (likely since it's been utterly deserted-complete with tumbleweed-for like 2 months now) i'll still feel some semblance of satisfaction because the simple act of blogging makes you feel like you're actually talking to someone.
ah blogging! how i've missed you! =)

blargh!!! i'm sooooo mad!!!
that stupid, stupid STUPID astrology thingy!!!
ARGH!!!!!
i read it and i was like, you know what??
couple of years ago, i would've wholly agreed with the crap people say about cancerians born in 1989. i would've said, "yup! that's me!!"
and yes, i know most people already know this, i think i claimed to know this but really didnt deep down....but it's all absolute bull!!!!
damnit!!!
and now i'm angry because i think part of the reason i am the way i am today is because my mom used to read all that astrology crap.
damn it damn it damn it!!!!
i don't know....just got really worked up about that but whatever!!
it was my birthday today!! huzzah!!!
my family shall take me out for sicilian tonight anhd i shall have a lovely time.
plus, i got a massively delicious cake and awesomely brilliant card from jillness and jayness and i was generally very happy the whole day.
plus, i was thinking of having a wonderful cake party on saturday. which i thought sounded like a marvellous idea (wth?! what's with the liberal sprinklings of outdated expressions of ecstacy?! marvellous? brilliant? huh?!?!)
but yes, cake party!!!! yay!!!
it probably wont happen of course and i'll spend saturday all by me one-sies which, while it will be a great tragedy, wont be so bad because...
well, okay, because i'm totally made of stronger stuff than that and...well, it's actually not really a big deal. it's nice to be able to say i'm seventeen and be able to try for my P's when i get the hours and whatever else it is that comes with being seventeen but you know...
it's not the birthday that i really even look forward to. it's the good times. so even if my cake party doesnt go through, i can still round up a bunch of no-lifers like me to have a good time with. and if not, you know, there's always my family (though that is bordering on the pathetic side coz i am already dfoing the family togetherness thing tonight....
just, i wish i could do something crazy and different.
just for my birthday.
...
blargh!!! now i come off all whiny and crap but whatever...isn't that what a blog is for??
meh. bored now....
time to go and do something seventeen-year-old-ish and whatnot.
but today was good.
and to shed some light on the matter that everyone has so been wondering about....
i have had a very happy birthday.

argh!!! school tomorrow.
partly excited. okay, not excited exactly but you know... not harbouring any murderous feelings about it...
and partly really really obstinate and bratty...
like a three year old kicking and screaming in the middle of the cany aisle at woolies because she desperately wants the family pack of klinkers but her mom will only buy the small, normal-sized pack because she knows her daughter wont finish it all.
actually, yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
i want more holidays and, if i were three, i would be kicking and screaming and chanting I want more holidays!!!!
but even though these holidays have been fantastic, anymore of them and i would totally be bored....
the holiday making people know that and so only allocate us two measly weeks.
well, okay, so, our boredom may not be the only factor in holiday allocation but the mom in the klinker situation probably has reasons other than "she wont be able to finish them" for buying the small pack.... saving money... making sure her daughter doesnt go on a sugar high... watching her weight (because her daughter is sure to offer her some)....
yeah, blady blah blah...
what's got me talking in these horrible, cliched analogies??
i think it may actually be a combination of highly irritating things...
my new fringe constantly getting in my eyes...
my lack of a job...
all the things i didnt get to do during the holidays...
all the ficpress ideas i got but werent able to develop the way i wanted...
finding out how expensive it is to maintain keeping a polaroid camera (linked with lack of job)....
but you know...wont be too bad with the money i'm expecting to come in soon which brings me to....
my birthday!!!
yay...go almost-seventeen me!!!
will go by the community centre later to see if i can book the hall and organise myself a nice little party...
or big party...
big party probably...
what do you think??
anyway...
must go eat spaghetti now...
and ghet off so my bro can get together his work experience (which he has left rather late, i must say)
darn.
right...see you all later....

SCRUBS SEASON 3!!!!!!!!!!!
on DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...
*ahem* anyhoo...guess how iiii spent my day???
*cough*
in desperate need of going outness...
and things are good...
too good...
been driving...
and hanging out with my sister...
read and shopped and listened to music....
talking and laughing and hanging and being bored out of my mind....
but it's been fun...
wont be able to go back to school at this rate...
blah!!
on another note, i bought this cute little flippy note book at that "massive" MYER "history making" sale....
because...well, not because i need one because...well, frankly, i will not need another notebook for the next thirty years...but because...well...because....
because it was just sooooo darn FLIPPY!!!
=)
and yes, trying this new thing where i test out the "you learn something everyday" one-liner to see whether there really is any truth to it or whether tis simply a mantra for those lacking in the observance factor...
tis interesting.
that's all from me..back to my SCRUBS (who knew it was on tv 11:30 every monday???)

don't get excited. I didn't take Paulio's advice and pick a random fight just to make life a tad more interesting. the difference i'm talking about is between wanting and needing. you know, like how i need my dad in my life but how i don't exactly want him there. complicated. it works okay but it's still frustrating at times. trying to be the good girl i know i could be but falling short inside.
it makes me feel like crap. like a crap daughter and a crap person. and all because of this annoying unresolved need/want feud going on.
i need someone who i tell more to than my dog. but i don't want one, yeah? chalk it up to manifesting intimacy issues or whatever...but yeah. that's how i've been lately. this pathetic armslength policy that i've got in place right now. my needs are there but my wants don't comply and it makes life very difficult. but then again...life's a bitch and blah blah blah.
on a lighter note, toblerone and lemon lime and bitters (the non-alcoholic kind) makes for a very happy trish in the evenings. =) that's a new discovery. also, my dad finally booked me driving lessons and my previously measly one hour of driving experience has now trippled!! =) huzzah!!! feeling very proud.
oh, and to kylie who has just very recently apparently tried so hard come into contact with me, thanks dude!!! =) didn't know i was so hard to find, but thanks for the effort. special mention coz i havent replied to her yet and just wanting to let her know, i'm not brushing her off. just lacking in the internert time thing...
well, too bad, so sad. i'm off. no food at my place so tis time to scavenger hunt away!!! =D
(p.s. yes, i updated. don't faint, pya and inandout!!!!)

alrighty...here yall (pya) go...a propper bloggy thing comming your way...
i don't know quite wht i'm so soooo achey...i think i sleep funny...and i did alot of sleep since i was sick friday...with spew and everything...i had some stomach virus and could only eat clear soup, toast and crackers and sipped on powerade and water all day. *sigh* i'd forgotten quite how crappy it felt to be really actually sick.
yuck
my mom was saying something funny at dinner couple nights ago...i said something snappy and grouchy (was in a bad, bad mood) and she looked at me. at first i thought she was going to reprimand me or something but then she gets this funny, misty look in her eye and starts talking about hor i'm growing up. and again...
yuck
she said something about how i seem to have outgrown the phone phase, the msn phase and even the excessive social outing phase. then my dad goes and makes a joke about how i seem to have just gotten sick of humanity altogether. well, i did then get sick the next day...
yuck
but there was some truth in what he said, melodramatic though it may have been. Like, seeing trivial crap for the trivial crap that it is when i couldn't before. sometimes it's saddening. as shocking as it feels to be turning seventeen, i'm not an adult yet. nearing it, perhaps, but not quite there. i mean, sometimes i look around and think that there are more adults with more childish faith and hope than i've got.
where did all of my my stupid, silly little thoughts disappear to, huh??
i gues that's why i try to write as many silly lists and journal entries as possible. why i read so much nonsense fluff and chick lit and rewatch disney movies even now (i reread the sisterhood of the travelling pants and watched pocahontas only today).
i mean, there are so many things i want to have and have done...
e.g...*
#get married and have kids
#own a car of my very own (preferably one of those old army jeeps)
#get a job doing something i love
#have lots of money
#go hang gliding
but i've got the rest of my life to do all that and only a certain amount of time left where i can be young. where i can make a gazillion mistakes without being judged too harshly for them...where i don't have to worry about supporting a family or paying bills...where i can get horribly sick and have someone wake up and hold my hair back while i bend over the bathroom sink...where i'm relatively safe and sheltered inside my bubble.
i've gotten to the point where i can now see out of my bubble->i can see the Real World outside and i can better appreciate how good i've got it in here. so i'd better make the most of it before my bubble pops!
*not neccesarily in that order

Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Writing and Cultural Studies) and in International Studies
What is this course about?
Writers tell their own stories, and in doing so they tell the stories of the societies they live in. This course combines a professional degree with immersion in another language and culture, enhancing professional training and career options. This combined degree is designed to broaden students' awareness of writing and the work of the writer in relation to different languages and cultures.
Course details
This course is available through the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences, in collaboration with the Institute for International Studies.
UAC code: 609330, 619330(UDFP)
UTS course code: C10105v3
Level: Undergraduate
Why study this course?
Writing at UTS is studied as a craft undertaken in close engagement with, and responsiveness to, the writer's society. Australia is uniquely positioned to play a significant role in the 21st century. Its writers will be a vital part of understanding and defining this role, and they will be better equipped for this task with an understanding of their own and other contemporary culture as they go about their work.
What is the workload?
This course is offered on a five-year, full-time basis.
Students spend their fourth year of study at a university overseas.
Where is the course held?
The course is offered at City campus.
For online details, see Addresses and maps for UTS campuses.
What are the entry requirements?
In 2005, the UAI for this course is 93.35.
This may change. More information about UAIs is available from the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) website.
Admission to the combined degree is on merit according to the admissions policy for the Bachelor of Arts in Communication. There is a range of entry levels to the various Language and Culture programs. Students are admitted to the International Studies program with no guarantee of entry to a specific major, although every effort is made to meet students' preferences.
The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences has introduced a variation of the inpUTS Scheme as it applies to certain prospective students applying for any of the Bachelor of Arts in Communication courses. For details on this scheme, visit:
http://www.hss.uts.edu.au/info/inpUTS.html
Assumed knowledge: HSC English and computer literacy (i.e. word-processing skills and familiarity with other applications). There are no prior language requirements, except for programs within the Heritage major.
i got distracted doing my english extention stuff...it looks interesting, hey?....and yeah, yeh!! i know it's such a cop-out-y blog entry but unless i want a heap of pya-telling-me-to-update-my-lj emails, i figured i should probably post something....and here it is!! =)
i actually got this pretty cool idea for a blog entry from a magazine a couple of days ago but it's such a good idea that i don't have enough time to do it justice and write it up properly. or that's the excuse i'm sticking with, anyway. =)
