I don’t even remember the last time I blogged. This is not a good sign.

So the family came and went. They’re back in their home country missing us like we’re missing them. It was an amazing holiday for them.

I have my music practical (for my term two music mark) tomorrow. Up till about a week ago I thought it was on Wednesday the 9th. What a shock that was.

School (as normal) is busy. 4 projects, 3 test all before the exams start in 3 weeks. Fun.

Rangers is driving me up the wall. It’s almost like a power struggle between me and my ranger guider. I don’t like power struggles. I either have the power or I don’t. I just need to know which on it is.

I’m being called away. Apparently T can’t make breakfast with our me.
Until I next remember

Spam. The most evil of all emails.

I realise its been 10 days since I last posted. 10 DAYS!!! I feel very guilty.

Here is a list of movies I’ve this week, while on holiday (to give you an Idea of the laziness that is home at the moment)

The incredibles
Avatar
Harry Potter, 7 part 2
The fith Element
Titanic
Shrek 2
Stardust
Tangled

I’m not mentioning the amount of TV programs we’ve watched. And this is only week one. There’s still another week to go. I’m exhorsting my movie options here!

On a movie note, I am never ever, ever going to watch Titanic Ever again. Never. Ever. One of the saddest movies I’ve seen. Three hours and 01 minute of crying. It was horible.

Not that I havn’t been doing anything. I finished 2 books…….ya thats pretty much it.

T’s birthday was good. She got quite a cool asortment of presents.

I am taking my guiding into my own hands. I want to have my Diamond pin by the end of this year. A diamond pin means I have 9 bars (you must complete 5 clauses in each section to recive the bar). Before I can get Diamond I must have Tourquise. Tourquise is 5 bars. I need this by the end of next term. Ideally in the middle of the term.
I’ve realised it’s not the ranger guiders job to set up the clauses for you. You need to take the bull by the horns. I’ve become rather good at that.

I should explaine the prevouse blog post. I wan’t in a very good head space when I wrote it. The game is to not think about the game. If you think about the game, you loose it and you have to shout of “damn, I lost the game!”. This was the most favourite game everyone played on Kontiki. With whole rafts loosing.

In unrealated matters, my term marks:
English 60%
Afrikaans 42%
Maths 76%
Goegraphy 83%
Music 76%
Bio 72%
LO 92%

I think. I don’t have the repot here with me.
I’m really going to try and improve my marks, especially mt languge marks. I’m hopefully moving my clarinet lesson, on the Wednesday, later so I can go to extra Afrikaans lessons. Also I must go to the libary and take out an Afrikaans book to read.

I probably won’t write again until the first day of school, 10 April. I promise nothing interesting will happen this week.

Talking about interesting Dad was in a accident yeasterday. The road was wet and a couple cars infront of dad a car skidded causing a nock on effect. Dads not hurt, just his intercostal muscles are abit sore. The back of the Kombi’s dented and the bumpers falling off but as usual the Kombi came off better in the fight.

I really am going now. More in 11 days

It hasn’t really been a great day today. First I’m told I’m not allowed to donate blood and then I have a screaming match with Tamsyn.

I couldn’t donate today, coz of having my ears pierced 3 months and 17 days ago. You have to wait 4 months till donating. Even thought its 19 days till it’s fine, they’re very strict.

I asked T to do a star chart for a Kontiki prop for before Friday. She’s done it but not properly. Hence my frustration. And screaming. But it’s almost done and the astronaut helmet is done. My costume and Chelsea’s is done. Tamsyn, Emma and Jenna’s are almost done and Lilies is the only one that’s going to be a huge problem.

So that’s 3 out of 4 props done. Just the solar system for this Friday. If it isn’t done properly I’m going to take it home and redo it.

I’m feeling like there’s still a huge amount to do but actually there’s not much left that I can do. Its all up to Miranda and Michelle. This worries me. I’m the kind of control freak that wants to see every step and what is entails.

Tee minus 9 days till take off!
