Hey, blogging in school. Well there ya go. I finished my interpretative Essay, so I'm free for a little while. I should use this time to catch up with math...
Today, I learnt why not bothering the teacher pays off. He didn't bust me for not doing homework. Horay. I'm so far behind with my math... Maybe I should use math three to catch up with math two. Bleck.
I don't know if I'm in with a year 8 or a year 9 class. They're all playing up though... Little people are real ferrals sometimes -_-' I don't remember being that way. I've only tried being that way recently.
I went to Michelle's Birthday party over the weekend. That was SO much fun! I love getting all my friends together to blabble on and eat. And Tod came too ::Waves to Tod, in case Olivia talks him into reading this:: Got to be the only guy at an all girl party. Tartan loved the idea.
Well, little else to say. We have to remember not to discuss Humans as though they were vermin oor a disease. Our english teacher is human, after all.
Later.

I just had a talk. Apparently, mum's "Boyfriend" and landlord is planing to sell the house we're living in at the end of next year. She's gonna have to move again. But She doesn't think we'll be able to find a place we can afford. Dad doesn't want to pay her to take care of me and my brother any more, since he's gonna have a new family to support. And he wants to move to a little place in the country, grow some fruit trees. It sounds nice.
As it is, I might have to go live with him after year 12, If I intend to go to university.
That isn't going to be easy. Not unless something mildly mirraculous happens before then.
Looks like it's gonna be part-time work around study for the Washi bird.
But I guess that's the way things go. Life changes, the family grows as my Dad get's married. Mum has to be careful she doesn't end up on a disability pension. Blek. Being 17 sucks ass.
Well, I just got the news. I could have done with knowing sooner, but now I've got to work out exactly what I'm going to do about it. Travis turns 16 next year. Or is it this year... I don't know, I'm not good with ages.

What is clear is that something is going to happen.
And at the same time, something is going to end.
Everything will change...
Waking up and walking the way into ruin.

It's spring in the land down under. The world sits on the verge of war. Australia is aproacing an economic crisis. Thousands are out of work, Thousands are dead, and my father was stranded in Sydney for a day while me and my brother were home alone.
And you DON'T believe we're on the eve of destruction?
What can I say, Earth's a tough old bitch and humanity is as hard to destroy as the common cold (Yes, we're viral. You gonna try denying it?)
I just realised how angry that last part sounded. I'm not really. I'm just a goober :Þ.
My cousin had his 18th birthday recently. Not an overly grand thing, but it strikes me as note worthy.
Happy Birthday Michiru ^_^
Man have I been all over the place. Right now, I'm so tired... Seventeen sure does suck ass ^_^
Enough swearing. There was something I was suposed to say... but I forget. Don't you hate that?
Report cards go home tomorow. My parent's aren't going to be happy with mine. Gosh, I'm not getting strait A's. Whatever could be wrong with me?
I already know the answer to that, I just can't bring myself to care. Meanwhile, I have an english essay to work on. Interperative Study. Comparing 'Flowers for Algernon', 'Gattaca' and 'The Silent Piano'. Work that one out ^_^
Here's a little bit from the silent piano-

I am reminded of a story
Camus tells, of a man in prison camp.

He had carved a piano keyboard
With a nail on a piece of wood.

And sat there playing the piano.
This music was made entirely of silence. ~ Louis Simpson

My family has a religion. It's called Football. They are of the church of Port Adelaide. I remember, when our team was accepted into the major league, There was a huge open day, for the launching of the song and the jerseys, ll that stuff. And I remember sitting in front of the stage as the band played it's last song. A commentator got on stage, and introduced an old man. I wasn't paying much attention, football bores me. Suddenly, everyone around me was standing up, and I was looking around, wondering what was going on. And a woman behind me said "Stand up girl, you're in the pressence of Fos Williams." It was the single oddest thing I'd ever been involved in, a whole fotty oval of people standing in reverance.

Don't ask me why I decided to share that with you, I just did.

Well, I'm between performances, and expecting another blackout at any seccond. I spent all of yesterday afternoon, from two to ten, at the Royal Adelaide Show. And I didn't see one cow, although I smelt them. I was there to perform with my concert band.
And I missed Rove McMannus!!! I was SO hanging out to catch a glimps of him, and apparently he walked past and I missed him! WAAAAAA!!!
The performance was hell as well, because we brought dancers along, and dancers and muso's just can't get along when it comes to performing. Both think their part is the most important. But I got to look around with my friends, only most of it was going on rides with Zoe.
Rainbow + Rain = extreemly slippery, if you're wondering.
And I never did get my waffle. The fire works were nice though.

Tonight, I'm performing in the Music Showcase (Formerly the Annual Concert), where I sing and Saxophone. My Mum might get a chance to see the photos of me in the musical too. horay. I am gonna be SO tired by the end of this...

Rock Estedford finals tonight. I hope they show it on TV. There was a butiful chinese story last year.

That's enough for today.

"Baby, I prommise I'll understand."
"You sure?"
"Of course! I mean, it can't be that bad, can it?"
"I'm actually a Panthers supporter."
"::Sob:: Noooo, I thought you might just be gay!"

Am I on a roll or what? I just have to write this down now, because... Hell, it's bloody huge news.
My father is Engaged to be married!
Well, it's big news to me. He told me last night.
Also, Fos Williams is dead. So are a lot of famous Australian Musoes, but Fos was like, a footty legend down here. Very sad day.
Back to my dad's... Fiencee? jipes. You remmber that aunt I wrote about yesterday? It's her best friend.

I find the whole situation very cool.

GTG, fathers day. Later.

Holy cow, so close to each other! Well there we go.
Had my birthday party yesterday, just figured I'd write down what happened. Well, for a start, a bunch of people couldn't make it, and that's understandable. But those that did make it had fun, and my best friends mother decided to buy us a vodka cruiser each. So I would like to strike my earlier statement about not drinking.
And I got a call from one of my Aunts, which was very cool because she's also my favorite Aunt (I shouldn't pick favorites, but everyone says we look similar.)
On a bit of a down side, my heart started playing up again. That's got me really worried.
For those who don't know, I've been having some heart troubles. I'm pretty sure it's just psychological or something, but I can't seem to find the trigger. And it hurts, so not a happy little buffalo -_-
And I got my navel ring changed, so that falls into the plus catagory ^_^
Well, that's enough blabbling for now I guess. Going to a friends place today to help with her DT app, help with a new character, scan some stuff to update (Yay!) and, if I'm lucky, see Tory in a dress.

You raise the blade
You make the change
You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane.
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head
But it's not me. ~Pink Floyd, 'Brain Damage'
