PUBLIC HOLIDAY TODAY!!!!! XD

Awwww some little kids are sooooooo cute!
My aunt, uncle and two of my cousins were up here yesty and today. One of my cousins isn't yet 1, I think (not sure!!!! XD). She was attempting to eat the grass and sticks and stuff but she didn't like the sticks much, lol. And the other cuz, he's not yet 3 (but once again I'm not sure ...) and he was kicking a soccer ball around.
They were both soooooo cute to watch!

Half yearlies start tomorrow ... EEEEEK

Hehehehe, at the camp I went to at Easter, someone managed to get a photo of me ... fixing up my insulin. Lovely. Great photo - a needle.
Thankfully it wasn't in the foreground though. A couple of my friends were.

I love the Muse version of Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You. It's AWESOME.
You can listen to it here, if ya want.

The best EVER Red Dwarf episode is on TV tonight. I LOVE it, it's totally HILARIOUS. Trust me. 8 pm on ABC2, if you are interested.

Well ... I'm glad today's a public holiday. Makes things a bit easier.

Zazhigai!!!!!!! (Russian for "rock on", lol)

Michael Leunig is a genius.
Just in case you didn't know.

Lol, I started reading Pride and Prejudice today. And I'm over two-thirds finished!!!!!!
I've tried reading it twice before, but it never really interested me. However, now I find it funny. And am enjoying reading it.
I've been trying to get my hands on Wuthering Heights, but I haven't managed to find it ... which is rather strange, it being such a classic and all.

The other night I was asked to play goalie for one of the A-grade hockey teams in my club. I tell ya, I was pretty freaked. I thought I was gonna get hammered and let heapsa goals in.
I needn't have worried - I didn't have to save anything.
Which means I've only ever had to touch the ball ONCE. But at least I haven't let any through!
Oh, and Nat - most of you Frightened Mice should know her, she's one of the Refined Young Ladies - gave me my first proper goalie coaching session. FIRST. Far out! But it was good =]

Ugh, half-yearlies next week ... it's not fair that we have so many tests next week. At least two per day.

Here's a sweet song (by a band so many more people like now! It's awesome! But if only they'd listen to more of the band's songs ... ) :
Endlessly - Muse
There's a part of me you'll never know
The only thing I'll never show

Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
Hopelessly I'll give you everything
But I won't give you up
I won't let you down
And I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes

It's plain to see it's trying to speak
Cherished dreams forever asleep

Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
Hopelessly I'll give you everything
But I won't give you up
I won't let you down
And I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes

Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
Hopelessly I'll give you everything
But I won't give you up
I won't let you down
And I won't leave you falling
But the moment never comes

Music ...

I went to Latham's music today ... and they were having a sale ... with heapsa music books ...
GOOD ones too.
Thing is, even with a sale they were still pretty expensive and I liked a number of them I liked ...
In the end I got one. I just COULDN'T go past it. So I now have ...
*insert drum roll here*
A PARAMORE PVG MUSIC BOOK!!!!!!
With my favourite song too, 'Hallelujah'.
Well, I totally scored there. Shame I couldn't get the Evanescence and Muse and Twilight soundtrack ones too. :(

Last night I went to a dance that my church held. People from all over the Central Coast / Hunter area went. It was awesome. Some good music too - almost half "oldies" stuff :)

And now I'll have some of Lily's music composition ... Ugh I really need to get into that, but I can't do pop. Oh well ... I'll get it done.

Hallelujah - Paramore
Somehow everything's gonna fall right into place,
If we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday.
If only time flew like a dove,
Make it fly faster than I'm falling in love.

This time we're not giving up,
Let's make it last forever,
Screaming "Hallelujah".
We'll make it last forever.

Holding onto patience, wearing thin,
I can't force these eyes to see the end.
If only time flew like a dove,
Well we could watch it fly, and just keep looking up.

This time we're not giving up,
Let's make it last forever,
Screaming "Hallelujah".
We'll make it last forever.

And we've got time on our hands.
[And we've got time]
Got nothing but time on our hands.
Got nothing but, got nothing but.
[And we've got time]
Got nothing but time on our hands.

This time we're not giving up,
Oh, let's make it last forever,
Screaming "Hallelujah".
"Hallelujah".
And here it is on YouTube

Different types of bonds ...

I am soooooo happy right now!!!!!
Well, the movie Twilight has an awesome soundtrack - with TWO Paramore songs.
And I got it, I got it, I got it!!!!
*singing and dancing*

And I've FINALLY gotten to see the music video for a Muse song.

In science today, we FINALLY moved off the topic of ionic and covalent bonds ... to look at OTHER bonds. Some of which didn't really make sense. Like the metal-metal bond - the teacher said it was like a cross between a covalent and an ionic bond AND THAT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE COS THEY ARE SO DIFFERENT!!!!
I'll just ask my dad, I guess.

Anyway ... another good song:
Don't Give Up - Natalie Bassingthwaighte and Shannon Noll
In this proud land we grew up strong
We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail

No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
But no-one wants you when you lose

Don't give up
‘Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet
Don't give up
I know you can make it good

Though I saw it all around
Never thought that I could be affected
Thought that we'd be last to go
It is so strange the way things turn

Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground

Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up
We don't need much of anything
Don't give up
‘Cause somewhere there's a place
Where we belong

Rest your head
You worry too much
It's going to be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on us
Don't give up
Please don't give up

Got to walk out of here
I can't take any more
Going to stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go
That river's flowing
That river's flowing

Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down
For every job, so many men
So many men no-one needs

Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up now
We're proud of who you are
Don't give up
You know its never been easy
Don't give up
‘Cause I believe there's a place
There's a place where we belong
