Because I Care

Mum and I went down to the shops. We went to the ATM, and two guys were refilling it. A line had formed to use the teller machine and a lady came up and stood behind us. It appeared that she was in a hurry, because she was swearing and talking to herself, while giving the hint that she needed to go next, so Mum allowed her to go infront.

We were nearly late for my hair appointment. The hairdresser washed my hair and layered it. I haven't had a haircut since before the Ball, so when it was finished, I felt like a whole new person.

I have been doing a bit of html editing of my blog and added the banner. I have signed up for that pack. I watched a video of reasons why I should become and vegetarian, and what they were doing to the animals was gruesome. You and I are eating a product of that. For me, I am gradually changing to a vegetarian lifestyle and I love it. I don't feel so guilty anymore.

English - TEE Exam 3

Nothing really exciting happened for the English exam, other than in the viewing section, I thought I had to answer both questions without realising that there was an "or" separating them. I didn't know how to answer the second question, so I left it to the last thing I did. Lucky I did that or I wouldn't have seen the "or". So I just expanded my answer to question one. The rest of the exam was alright.

Yesterday I played the best game of SA:MP. For the first time, the guys were actually being nice to me. I was being shot by this guy and Xayal came along and helped me. I jumped onto his bike and drove around. I then fell off and he came back for me. I fell off again, but this time his friend (I can't remember his name so I will call him A) stopped and picked me up. They invited me to their gang and we drove around trying to kill people. We started to gang up on people, 3 vs 1, in particular this one guy, who started getting so ticked off and he started to call me bad names. This guy got to a stage where he made his own gang to try and kill us. It eventually worked.

I teleported to the ship and a guy from the other gang said, "Come on Emilia" (The ship is a safe spot) to try and come and kill me. I sent a message to my Xayal and A screaming HELP and they too teleported to the ship, where a giant shootout took place. I killed one of them but I had taken a beating, so I grabbed a bike and took off. The guy from the enemy gang then called me a n00b and shot me dead.

I respawned at the area near the water and this other guy came and started shooting at me. A turned up and tried to help me. We both got on a bike and started to drive off, but the guy knocked off A and left me on there. I wasn't going to let go, because this guy of course, didn't want me on the bike. So he tried to get me off. In the end, he backed the bike into the water and we both fell off. Xayal turned up and I screamed at him and A to go kill the guy. The guy is swimming in the water, me catching up behind him, with Xayal and A trying to shoot at him. He gets to dry land and a shootout begins. I climb out of the water and start shooting with the Deagle, when Xayal is shot dead. Then I'm shot dead. Then A is shot dead. All by this one guy! THE SHAME!!!

Overall, such a great game. I felt like I had a purpose and not just to be shot dead. I was part of team and we had such great fun, even though we got pwned that one time. The only thing I didn't like, was when they talked in French and I couldn't understand a word...

Applicable Mathematics - TEE Exam 2

I walked into the exam room and sat down at my spot and took out my pen. I didn't realise it, but after I few minutes I was holding that pen, so the supervisor came along and told me to put the pen down. It was like she couldn't trust me after that or something. She checked my notes and my statistical book twice and she kept walking past me to see what I was doing.

Not only was this making me edgy enough, but I think the person sitting in the row to the right of me was trying to cheat off me. The gap between our rows was smaller than the others so he would be able to read off my work easily. I was going back through the paper to find parts that I had missed and went to work on the left hand side of the page. As I am right-handed, I pushed the paper to the right so I could work on the left page. I had already done some work on the right page, and, I swear, in the corner of my eye, I could see him looking. So I pulled the page over to the left and put my elbow across it, writing on an angle I usually don't.

When I got out of the exam, I felt quite happy, even though I had missed out on two whole questions.

Today was the Melbourne Cup and Stephen picked the winning horse, Efficient; with it $14 something. Lucky bug.

A Quick Hello

I have been doing study for my Applicable Exam today for tomorrow. I have worked through one day and I've just started going through a second. I went and tried on my dresses today to see if they still fitted me. The dress from my year 11 River Cruise still fits me, but my black and white dress, the one I wore for John's birthday had to be readjusted again. I watched one whole episode of Days of our Lives, something I haven't done in quite a long time (I don't even really like the show) and went back to studying.

Well that's about it. I will be doing some more study after dinner and then watch my daily dose of Neighbours.

Talk about the exam tomorrow night, when I hope I will be more happy after it than the Chemistry one (I woke up today remembering a part of the exam and I am trying to remember if I did it or not (because I missed bits and pieces from the paper) and it is stressing me out!).

Signing off.

Deagle Distraction

Missy was walking around the garden, nose up in the air smelling something. She then pointed her paw towards the taller pencil pine tree and stood there looking up at it. She started to cry, like she was trying to tell us something. So I picked her up so she could get more height and she sniffed some more. We couldn't see anything so I put her down. A few more times after that she asked me to pick her up again so I did. After a few minutes, we walked back inside. Missy kept looking and sniffing up at that tree, but we still didn't see what she could.

I watched the movie Tea With Mussolini day, which starred Cher, Maggie Smith and Dame Judy Dench. It was such a good movie. It was about English and American people living in Italy in the time before World War II, but then Italy declared war on England and America got involved, so these these people were now the enemy and were moved out of their homes. I loved it!

I did some study for Applicable today but I felt very distracted because I could hear everybody in the house, because my room is not sound proof. Although I had these distractions, I learnt how to do certain questions that I didn't know how to do properly before. I will be able to study better tomorrow because the house will be nice and quiet with only Mum and I.

I played a bit of SA:MP today. There are people using shotguns and automatic weapons and I was killing them with a Deagle pistol. Yes I know they are very powerful, but in GTA it is different. I went up against guys with them as well and I still killed them. I have an alliance called MINUS and he helped me when I guy was trying to kill me by running me over with his car. There are some guys that don't respect the girls playing the game and just try to kill them because they think they can't play the game. Watch out...Emilia will, Emilia will, KILL YOU.

Chemistry - TEE Exam 1

I thought that after I did my Chemistry exam I would be happy, but I wasn't. I felt like I had done really bad in it, seeing as I couldn't do three out of five of the calculations. The multiple choice and short-answer were good, but I think they could have chosen a better extended answer. Once I had finished the exam, I felt so sick like I wanted to throw up.

It felt good to be home, eating my favourite soup, minestrone and playing GTA: San Andreas. I finally got the relationship between Carl and Helena up to 100% which unlocked the hideous rural outfit. I now have to start another relationship to unlock more clothes and other goodies.

I asked Dad to get me some small cheesecakes for me for my graduation gift. Dad went and bought one for each of the family, except for me, because I was allowed two. I got a passionfruit and a triple choc one. I ate the passionfruit one today and wasn't able to finish it as it was so filling.

Dad and I went to the shops. I went to go get some chocolate, which they didn't have any that I wanted and Dad went out and got The Day After Tomorrow for me from my free movie rental pass. Then we went to the supermarket and got some groceries. We went to school to pick Stephen, who took ages to get out, because he had been watching his teaching play in his band Fools Rush In for a one time exclusive show. After we picked him up, we went around to Emily's place to give her back her graphics calculator. I went back home and watched the the movie, forgetting all about the exam, until I started talking to Alyce about it.
