1 year

1 YEAR............

My one year anniversary was... 10 days ago. I was busy with school.

In my 1 year here I have made some great friends, who I will thank for making me feel welcome.

I have read some wonderful stories and had some...odd...conversations.

Ultimately I have to thank the Tate thread for all the fun we had.

Now I'm level 9 and feelin' fine...

Its Blog Time!

I have been seriously neglecting my Blog. I feel so bad... Well not literally.

Anywayz... I just went back to School. :cry: I'm in year 9 which is a Good Thing. I get to take electives this year. Since the're not offering Biology for some strange reason, (And I really wanted to do Biology :( ) I'm doing four art subjects instead. This semester I have Art and 3D and next semester I have Ceramics and VisComm. VisComm is Visual Communications. Its mostly drawing and stuff which is good.

Over the Holidays I didn't do any blogging (shame, shame) So I'm going to do a big one now regarding... everything. Starting with movies. I saw Juno which was really good and had an AWESOME soundtrack. I'm going to download it. I also saw 27 Dresses which wasn't that good. Funny though. I saw National Treasure 2 which rocked of course, and last weekend I saw Sweeney Todd. Now that was an awesome movie. Classic Tim Burton, twisted as hell and just as brilliant. Its going to win that Oscar. Heres the poster.

And some screenshots. Yay screenshots.

I love that dress. Heres another one of her dress.

Yay! I'm going to download that soundtrack too.

I added significantly to my personal DVD collection (my precious). I bought V for Vendetta, The Silence of The Lambs Collectors Edition :D, House seasons 1-3 And The X Files season 2. And I bought Supernatural season 1 off Smeagol because she was buying the one with the special features.
House came in a three box set and all of the seasons had special features. Triple yay! It also came with a free stress ball o_O. Written on it is:

Can we forget my vices and get back to my virtues? - Gregory House

I love TV.

Heres some random pictures.

^^I love Moonlight. Vampires are fun.

:D

TTFN.......

x.Julia.x

I already have a blog with the title stuff.

It is 12:10 am. And I'm doing a quiz. then I will shower and watch a movie. I'll probably go to bed at 3am and get up at noon tomorrow. What can I say? I'm a night person.

Listening to now: Hanger 18 - Megadeth. Gotta love that guitar.

The New Year -- 2008

I'll start the blog by saying Happy New Years to everyone!

Hope you had a great night :)

Heres what I did. At around 7pm my family and Smeagol went to the beach. It was like 42C degrees so we were walking in the water. Then later we were collecting sea glass.

Pretty. Me and Smeagol walked up to the end of the beach, but then we had to go back because the tide was coming in. Smeagol nearly stepped on a ginormous jellyfish. It was purple.
Late we were just sitting around eating these chicken pie things my mum made. Mmm chicken.

We went home at about 10pm. Then at home we were watching Charlies Angels and eating like a million icypoles. When we ran out of icypoles we just ate ice blocks.

At 11.3o when Charlies Angels was over we went outside and then Keren called (Shes in Israel ATM) to say Happy New Years even though it was 3.3o in the afternoon there. She said she got me a Tzahal shirt so I was going a bit nuts. Maybe it was also because I put Scotch in my drink bottle. Then we were running around with sparklers until 11.5o.

At like 5mins before the countdown we went inside to watch. Pretty fireworks.
The first of January is also my dad's birthday so we said Happy Birthday to him. Then me and Smeagol went on MSN to say Happy Birthday to this other dude whose birthday was Jan 1, while still on the computer we had a very strange urge to play The Sims 2. Yes we're crazy. :P

I love the Cheshire Cat. :D

Then at about 2am we started watching PotC 3.

Best one if you ask me. At the end after the credits you see Will's son, and it's the same kid who played Carson in Lost And Found (NCIS) but his hair is long.

At about 4am we decided to go to bed, but because it was so damn hot we only got to sleep at like 5. Now its nice and cool though. :)

Once again Happy New Year every one! :D

Xmas

Thought I'd just take time out from my busy schedule ;) to say Merry Xmas to all my friends, and those of you who aren't my friends but reading my blog anyway.

Not much on. Listening to the My Chemical Romance version of All I Want For Christmas Is You. It rocks.

I'll Post an "official" blog later.

Happy Holidays!

Saturday

Shalom everyone!

Yay! School is finally over!

We didnt even do anything this past week. Most of the time we were watching movies. On Thurday we had a dodgy activity day. The only highlight was that my hot art teacher was walking around in a vest. :D I know that sounds kinda wrong but he looks like a cross between Damian Lewis and Jesse Spencer.

Hmmm. Pity I wont have him next year.

Its a little short and uneventful but oh well. Please reveiw!

Arrivederci everyone! I'm off to Smeagol's...

New Stuff

Lotsa stuff going on right now.

- Howard just lost the election. He's been PM since we moves to Aus, so I'm not complaining. Currently listening to Howard's goodbye speech, and everyone randomly going "We love you John!" and he doesn't seem to realise that they're taking the mickey. Howard lasted 11 years. Lets see how long Rudd lasts.

- New obsession. X-Files! :D:D:D Those who know me (Smeagol, Kitty) know that when I fall for a show or a movie, I fall hard. And I don't let go. I'm going to buy seasons 1-9 on DVD. My precioussss my precioussss...

- Camp. A bit late for a blog post on camp, but I thought I should comment anyway. I'm not going to beat about the bush. It sucked. Worst camp I have ever been on. :evil: The highlight was climbing up a freakin mountain to see a haunted cemetary. The dead were buried standing up because it was so steep. The cemetary was nice. Some of the graves were from the 1800s, and some weren't even marked. some were just bits of wood nailed into crosses. It made me kinda sad, seeing those unmarked graves. They were nobody anymore. Just a 1x2 plot of land. Anyway, not to dwell on sad things. On Wednesday it rained all day, the whole busride home. :)

- Laptop. Finally, finally, FINALLY! Getting me a laptop real soon kids :D

- Almost the end of the year, and less than a month left of term. :D I rather like my new school. So many staff days... Got one on Monday. w00t 4 day weekend. :D (I was sick on Friday)

- New story. Working on a new story kids! I wont post it till its finished to avoid procrastination, and that may be a while, so don't get ya hopes up. But I will say this: It's gonna be different, and not so shippy. Possibly Tiva. I havn't decided yet.

Signing off for now, and remember:

Trust no-one.
