I spent the whole day with Mum, joined also with my uncle and aunt, going op shopping, scavenging through several vinnie's and salvos. You never know what you might just find. Its definitely one of my favourite things to do.
I found and bought 4 more books that I've always wanted to read ;
TULLY paullina simons
THE SUMMER GARDEN paullina simons
EAT PRAY LOVE elizabeth gilbert
ANGELA'S ASHES frank mccourt
and all for under $15! can you believe that!!!??!?? My library is definitely growing, as well as my reading list. Don't worry, I'll get there. I'm almost finished Not Without My Daughter and I've started reading A Walk To Remember.
My mother found my some red skinny jeans from Jay Jays for just $6! lucky she found it because I have a gift card for Jay Jays and was planning on using it on some skinny jeans. To top that off, Mum also found 3 awesome bags, all in great condition. one was Prada, so cute you could just eat it up. Mother was determined to find some clothes for Angelou, and clothes she received, most of which were from Jay Jays. Finding all of these great things makes me wonder why they were donated just like that. Oh well, its an advantage for us.

have you realised that I've finally discovered the beauty of different sizes, colours, italics and boldness of the font! it makes my posts interesting to look at I guess.
well, best be off to finally finish some books.

Au revoir ~

the title can not say it any better. as I was walking from the station to the car, I noticed an unpleasant smell, and at the last moment I realised there was animal droppings on the ground. thanks elyssa for laughing at me ... just you wait. I had to take my stinkin shoe off and chuck it into the back of the car. people with dogs.... MAKE SURE YOU PICK UP THEIR CRAP! thank you.

reading competition..
Mum:1
Angelou:3
Me:1
angelou is freakishly fast, I don't know why. I bet you she skips some stuff :)

cool chemistry lesson today . Mrs Manoogian made sodium explode in water. it was the bomb. get it, the BOMB! I almost peed my pants because we all got scared and started laughing like a herd of hyenas.

I bought 2 books yesterday after work because I just felt like it.
"Dear John" and "A Walk to Remember" both by Nicholas Sparks. Better get cracking on those then, right after "Not Without My Daughter".
I love Sparks. How many movies have been made from his books?
a walk to remember
the notebook
dear john (this is new .. amanda is awesome)
the last song. (this is also new, staring miley cyrus)

Angelou won't stop talking about me stepping in dog poo, I guess dog crap is her thing!

got any good music suggestions??

ciao for now :)

4 weeks in school. feels good to be back. but it does feel weird being a senior at school. It still seems like I'm in year 10 or something. I like wearing my senior uniform, haha, it makes me feel senior, although I still don't have my senior jumper so whenever it's cold, I don't like wearing my maroon one. oh, and on thursdays, I can never decide whether to wear my sport uniform or my senior uniform, you see, only the juniors have sport and if you wear your sport uniform on thursday, you end up looking like a junior, which I am no longer.
jeez enough ranting about uniforms.

my family's love for books has resulted in a 1 month competition.
who ever reads the most books in one month wins the pride and glory. the competitors are:
Mum, Angelou and me :)

the score so far
Mum : 1
Angelou : 1
Me : 0.5 ( I'm half way through a book right now) Yes, I'm the slowest reader you will ever meet. This is not an exaggeration, I have read this book every day at my fastest pace and still I haven't finished it. I don't understand!!!!!!

that brings me to my pile of books i'm going to read...
right now I'm reading "Not Without My Daughter" by Betty Mahmoody. You have to read this. I'm using it as my additional material for English, which means I need to finish it pretty soon before my teacher finds out that I haven't finished it. :)
"19 Minutes" really want to start reading this one by Jodi Picoult.
"Prada and Prejudice" a teen novel by Hubbard that I picked off the shelf because I liked the title :)
"Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody" the parody of Harry Potter that was obviously chosen because it sounds funny.
and "Between Two Eternities" by Rosemary Kay, this one is also very touching. A small premature baby in intensive care. It's also written in the baby's perspective which is cute :)


By the way, try something while you're on my blog. Scroll down to the bottom of the page slowly and look outside the window to the left, I just realised this 2 weeks ago :)
i was like.... WHOA!
