girlie day out

GIRLY DAY
our girly day at Joey's started with me waking up at 6:50 to get to school early
to sort out the hot cross bun orders
(unfortunately we didnt do as well as last year's, but we got quite a few orders.. thank goodness the teachers were generous, they bought quite a few, and that's going towardds our formal tickets girls! :) so we should be very thankful. on the contrary... we didnt get a single order from the year 9's! D: )

ok and then, once chloe got to school
we headed out onto the northshore line, which is apparently quite pretty :)
by now i had decided that it was not so great to wear heels in wet weather.. cos the rain just made the blisters wet... and increased the chafing. T__T

when we got to milsons point station, we ended up walking from one end of it to the other 3 -4 times to work out which side joey's apartment was on (definitely did not do my feet any favours! )
ok.
the pool was nice :)
we didnt really swim
just splashed around and wrestled each other, and piggy backed etc etc.
there was a person in the pool before us, but we soon scared her away >:)
(feel kinda bad cos we just barged in like excited 12 year olds at a pool party..)
it didnt take us long to get in the spa, it was so nice.
and then TO THE SAUNA!
we decided that we would then turn it into a girly day, so chloe and i went down to the local pharmacy and bought 5 facials :)
we looked so scary in our mud masks.. there were mirrors everywhere in the pool, and i scared myself everytime i looked in the mirror.
after that we managed to squeeze all five of us into one shower. (we had our swimmers on, so don't get any ideas!)
and we learnt that alison shampoos her hair twice.
and that we both lose a tonne of hair.

we had dinner at misuya on George street :)
real pretty place.
and all the waitresses say NUUU WORRIES!
which instantly makes them best friends with Alison.
and they had pretty nails too. :) as well as all being super polite.

then as usual,
we went to capitols, to take photos,
and passionflower for icecream to complete the day.
:)



YAY!
so much fun!!!
must do it again some time
THANKS JOEY!

destressing

two days after half yearlies are over and done with.

last night i got all the candles out

and had an hour of darkness for the earth :)

but for most of it, we went and walked coco with dad and tina
its nice walking at night.
its quiet, serene.
spent some time just lying in the middle of the oval behind my house.
reminded me of the time i was on duke of ed, and i saw the most beautiful night sky i had ever seen.
the sky was literally filled with stars.

it was like God had taken a cup of stars and poured it on the sky.
never seen anything quite like that night.
well last night i was lying there on that oval, i got six mozzie bites.
and no i didnt see that sky, but i have never been that relaxed in a long time.
i was so happy.
no happy 's not the word.. more like content
just so content and appreciative of everything i had.
so glad that i had the opportunities to do what i want to do
and go to school
and even do the half yearlies
and just everything!
i had a silent d&m by myself lying on that empty oval last night at 9.
until coco came and slobbered all over my face. haha
:)



this is how i destress.



put on a facial. :)



trim my fringe



pluck my eyebrows.. damn they're growing back again...



first paint my nails with three coats of polish :)



then paint my toe nails with two of something bright



might go for another run later with COCO :)



cooking dinner with my mum is so enjoyable when i know there is no essay that needs to get written.











life doesnt get any better than this.







saw a scarf at SABA.



the cosiest woollen scarf ever.



and the wool wasn't prickly!







except it was $99..



so.. i guess i'm not going to be getting that scarf for winter..



lol everytime winter comes around i feel like getting a new scarf..



:)



actually sorta looking forward to winter.



i like winter uniform.



am i the only one not that excited to get the year 12 jersey?


hmm i kinda like the way our vest looks with the winter uniform.















sorry that was just a stream of conciousness.
this is what happens when i blog without anything to blog about.






byeeeee.

they might say hi.

and i might say hey.

but you don't have to worry, about what they say.

'cause they got nothin' on you baby.

nothing on you baby.

but i know things will get better. I'm so over caring about my dark under eye circles right now . i just want those marks.

walking

we're going to get there.

no matter how daunting.

and if we stumble along the way, we'll haul each other up,

wipe each other's tears and keep on walking.

once in a while, we'll look back. but only as a reminder of how far we've come, never to consider walking back.

this sucks.

life just keeps getting worse..
just when you think you've hit it pretty low.
i tell myself things are going to start looking up soon.
just when you think "it's ok, i'll get through this, it'll pass"

i lost my train pass again.
not my first one
but my replacement one..
within three days of having it issued.

i'm praying that someone will be kind enough to return it to the school or the station.

i want to scream.

ruined my day.
couldnt do any english and exams are coming up
but its ok
im going to wake up at 6 tmr
and im going to go run 3km, to clear my head and release all this pent up stress
things are going to get better!!! :)

had a disagreement

it's been a while.

I had a disagreement with my mum, and as always it never really works out.

I'm not angry at her

I just wish she would trust me to make my own decisions, and the right ones at that.

I know i'm far from perfect, and I make A LOT of stupid choices. But i really don't think 4 hours of my sunday would make that much of a difference to my studies.

I can't blame her. She never went to church, and she was never Christian, and never met the people i've met there who are in all honesty some of the nicest people i believe i will ever get to meet.

i really wanted to make Chruch a regular thing.

a weekly thing.

I wish she would have listened.

I would have told her that going to church gives rythym to my life. more than just study every day, 7 days a week. I would have said, im not as strong as you mum. sometimes I can't do it alone like you have.

but all i could do was stand there like an idiot and cry. shake my head and tell her that she didn't understand.

I don't blame her. How can I? she's my mother and I owe absolutely everything to her.

someone told me that you really don't have the right to answer back to your parents, even if you know they're wrong, because they owe you nothing. and you owe them everything that you have to this day.

It's true. No matter how much i dislike it. and no matter how unfair i think it makes me feel, it's true

So I'm going to listen to my mum. I don't think i'll be going to church for a while. I'm going to study my hardest for the remianing eight months. And when I get what they expect from me. I'll pick my life up where i last left off.

it made me think of the first time that i realised my parents weren't perfect.

sometimes i wish i could crawl back under the blankets of my childhood and hide in my naivety and ignorance.

some things are just easier if you don't understand.

katie.
