Surprise!

Yesterday, John and I surprised Lauren by bring Chris over with us to her house. She was so shocked that she squealed and gave Chris the biggest hug. She was so happy and had the biggest smile on her face; something that I haven't seen in a long time. We sat around for awhile while we decided what we were going to do for the day and as we did, we watched Tom and Jerry on Foxtel.

We ended up deciding that we wanted to go watch "I Am Legend" at Warwick. Lauren drove us and she put in her party mix CD and started singing along to songs that John and Chris didn't really like. We went into Coles to get some snacks to bring into the movies instead of buying the overpriced food at The Candy Bar. The movie was quite popular, as they put us all in the Mega Stadium and it was quite full. The movie itself was quite suspenseful and things jumped out of no where. There was one scene where Will Smith's character was walking through a dark hall holding a gun and this guy to the right of me screamed out stupidly, "Watch out!" That broke the suspense.

We then went back to Lauren's house and the others went for a swim. After a while, Lauren came and sat with me and we had a really good chat.

At 7:30pm, I turned up for Blair's 18th birthday party at Hogsbreath. I and a few of the guys turned up before her. She looked quite pretty with her hair in curls and wearing a black dress. She really brought colour to the party, literally, as she brought in blue and white helium balloons and napkins to replace the Hogsbreath ones. I knew everyone there except for two girls who were Blair's childhood friends. The food was pretty good, but I was disappointed that they have taken my favourite meal off the menu. B;air had brought an icecream cake as her birthday cake and it was the best one I had tasted. I'm not sure exactly it was made of, but I tasted strawberry sauce. Overall, it was a great party.

And it was a great day with friends.

I had such a bad night's sleep last night. I must have had a fever, because I was freezing cold. My stomach was aching. I felt really sick. I tossed and turned.

Today was the last day of school forever and I felt so alone. Everybody was talking with everybody else, signing people's shirts and books, whereas I had put myself to the side, feeling sick. People were taking photos with every person they could find and I felt like an outcast. Not many people wanted photos with me. I felt like I had to ask them to take my photo. I was in such a bad mood with how sick I was feeling and how tired I was because of it.

The six of us Chemistry girls had organised to have a private party. It didn't turn out to be one. Everyone else who was in the lab area came into OUR room to steal OUR food. People have been having parties and we weren't allowed to come to them. How come they were given right to come and steal our food? They kept coming back. I felt like I could scream at them. A few times we told them to leave and they still came back. I was so upset because I wanted to have a few hours with my Chemistry friends. I was so quiet. When everybody had left, which was five minutes to the bell, I exploded. I started talking loudly and banging the tables in such frustration.

I have to go to my brother's football trophy presentation night. He finally got his 50 game medallion which he should have got two years ago. The whole thing went to long and we left half way through. I said to my parents that our school presentation are quicker then theirs, plus we have "entertainment". The thing I found strange, is that a football club that endorses fitness and health provided Chooks for everyone. It was so boring that I was nearly falling asleep.

Why is everybody stuck one way? What is up with everyone sticking with their boyfriends all the time? Pushing your friends away is the most horrible thing you can do, because when you need someone to talk to other than your boyfriend, you will have no one.

I FEEL SO ALONE.

Party Followed By Relaxation

Listening to Rush Hour by Christopher Lawrence

Yesterday was Kristina's 18th birthday party. We picked up Catherine and two minutes after she left, she forgot her phone so we had to drive back. When we got there and we got to the door and there was Adam and Luke. Luke was the most dressed up out of all of us (it was a retro party). He had half of his hair spiked up, had small rounded glasses, a fake snakeskin jacket and wore lipstick & eyeliner. Kristina was wearing a big black wig, a Guns n Roses t-shirt and black jeans. I could be bothered getting dressed up at all. We mostly sat around talking. Lauren, Diem and I were joking around quite a bit talking about random things. We watched her open her presents and she got quite some cool stuff. She really liked the lava lamp I got her. Adam has started calling me the Emily from the future, the Shadow something...(I can't remember what it was called) for some unknown reason.

I haven't really been doing much today. I woke up at eight o'clock and we gave Dad his Father's Day present. We didn't even go out to celebrate. I watched Love Actually which I taped a few night ago and that was a good two and half hours well spent. I put all of my Chemistry work into one file so now it is perfectly organised (something I should have done at the beginning of the year). I played fetch with Missy, using one of the stress balls Stephen picked up at Curtin.

I also add that Cbox onto this blog. Please feel free to leave comments on there or to just randomly chat.

Yesterday and Today

Listening to Maria from West Side Story.

After waiting more than a year from it to come out in the shops, I finally purchased the CSI: Miami Season 2 box set. I watched six of the episodes yesterday, five of which I know the story to very well and one of which I had only watched once. I was talking to Diem on the phone just an hour ago and she told me that Emily had said I hadn't talked about CSI: Miami in a while. While that is quite true, seeing as I had stopped watching it on TV for two reasons: that Channel 9 moved CSI: Miami to a different time slot and that the story line wasn't as good as those of the earlier seasons. Well now I have more reason to talk about CSI: Miami again.

Yesterday was Babcia's 70th birthday party which we hosted. Everybody from Mum's side of the family came except for Uncle Martin, Griffin, Austin and Justin since they live on the other side of the country. It was great to see Aunty Leonnie again after such a long time. We had a great arrangement of food such a pierogies (a Polish pasta dish with a potato and cheese filling), kapusta (a Polish cabbage dish with mixed in sausage), sausage rolls, pies, open sandwiches and mini pizzas. We purchased her birthday cake from a Polish shop in Sorrento called Chopin. The cake was made of chocolate mousse and covered with large chocolate shavings. It also had a chocolate plaque with "Happy Birthday Mum" written in Polish. It tasted delicious!

The day consisted of eatting, talking and the cousins playing the Nintendo 64. Stephen was unbeatten in Diddy Kong Racing for a while, until I took over and then he took over me again. I also spent a good 5 minutes arguing with Jason about whether GoldenEye was a better game than Perfect Dark on the Nitendo 64. We also played Battle in Mario Kart. After playing for a good 3 hours, all of us had become sleepy from staring at the bright lights coming fromn the TV in a darken room.

I tried Champagne for the first time. I don't like beer or wine at all, but now I found a liking to champagne. It was "Bella" by Yellowglen and it was pink and fruity. I want a bottle for my 18th now!

Today I have spent my time doing Applicable homework and watching more CSI: Miami episodes. Not very fun.
