well hello there! it's been ages since i last journalled. nearly a month. for no good reason really, just haven't bothered xD



anyway, as for what's going on in my life, i went to music camp on the weekend which was AWESOME. best music camp yet (we go every year) and i had a lot of fun. brought along my guitars, harmonicas, and amp (which was useful for getting our ipods pumping. woo). we slept in the attic of the place and pulled, like, thirty mattresses together YAY. oh and i might be taking up double bass or viola 8D hopefully double bass. short person + tall double bass = fun!



in school news uuuum i had four tests this week which were mostly easy. i got 90% for lit essay which was nice. and today was the last day of term so it's holiday time yay! but i have to go back for a little bit tomorrow to present to all the staff about cyber bullying at their pastoral care training day. >.> lame but oh well. we also have our dinner dance in about a month which should be awesome, [link] and [link] and me have our partners sorted we just need to book a table. and i need to get my dress adjusted (it's gothic lolita style ^^ yayy) because i bought it in malaysia and the shoulders are too narrow for me. xD



um besides that, i'm going to supanova on sunday! yay! not cosplaying this time around, but at wai-con in january i'm going as honey from ouran high school host club (: woot. and i'm going to arts camp on monday! YAAAAAAY! going to be so much fun and i hope i meet some epic people there c: artscampartscampartscamp~~



and im trying to sort of get back into drawing but develop a new style. like haute couture fashion design cross with tim burton kind of thing? all angles and long/thin limbs and stuff. should be cool. was practicing in religious education today instead of learning (i dont care about the subject) but my scanner is being evil and not scanning it nicely :c so it probably won't go up here.



edit:
so apparently i'm going out into the country (to my cousins' farm) the day after art camp! should be good. maybe she'll do some modelling for me in the paddocks. i don't think they have any crops planted at the moment but still, empty paddocks should be fun. must remember to bring tripod + empty memory card. ^^



anyway thats all i have to say really.
ciao

_{The rain, it started tapping on the window near my bed. There was a loophole in my dreaming,
So I got out of it. To my surprise my eyes were wide and already open.
Just my nightstand and my dresser where those nightmares had just been.
So I dressed myself and left them, out into the grey streets.
But everything seemed different and completely new to me.
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings, even my own body.
Each person I encountered, I couldn't wait to meet.
I came upon a doctor who appeared in quite poor health.
I said "There's nothing that I can do for you
You can't do for yourself."
He said "Oh yes you can. Just hold my hand. I think that would help."
So I sat with him a while and then I asked him how he felt.
He said, "I think I'm cured. No, in fact, I'm sure.
Thank you Stranger, for your therapeutic smile."
That's how I learned the lesson that everyone's alone.
And your eyes must do some raining if you're ever gonna grow.
But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself.
It's best to compose a poem, an honest verse of longing or a simple song of hope.
That's why I'm singing...
Baby don't worry, cause now I got your back. And every time you feel like crying,
I'm gonna try and make you laugh. And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad,
then we'll wait for it to pass and I will keep you company
through those days so long and black.
And we'll keep working on the problem we know we'll never solve
Of Love's uneven remainders, our lives are fractions of a whole.
But if the world could remain within a frame like a painting on a wall.
Then I think we'd see the beauty.
And we'd stand staring in awe at our still lives posed like a bowl of oranges,
like a story told by the fault lines and the soil.}
