Back to school

Hello

School’s back, finally. I was getting so bored on the holidays. Anyway. I’ve got the best term: English, Maths, Science, SOSE, Home Economics and Japanese. Yayness!

We’re doing healthy cooking for Home Economics, which is actually sounding really yummy. Next week I’m making Vegetable Parcels with Yoghurt Sauce. Yum… Science sounds like it’s going to be really hard. I haven’t done chemisty since term one last year so you can imagine how much I can (or can’t) remember. LOL. Plus my teacher had to give us this big long speech on how difficult this unit is and how we can’t expect to just sit there and bludge all term. I’m scared. Very scared.

Ooh. Yesturday an American study group came to our school and I was one girl’s buddy. They were all from California. We had an “Aussie Lingo” lesson with them, where they were taught such terms as ‘dunny’, ‘bun in the oven’, ‘ankle biters’ and, my personal favourite, ‘nick off’. I didn’t realise nick off was a particularly Australian term. But there you go. There’s another group coming on Monday, which I’m looking forward to.

On the holidays I saw ‘Cars’. I know this is really sad, cause it’s a little person movie, but… it was sooo good. I loved it, it was hilarious!! I think I’d have to put it into the Toy Story category for goodness. Which is only a short distance below the ‘Shrek 1 & 2’ category. But nothing else will EVER make it into that category. Even though I can’t sit through Shrek 1 anymore. I think I ovedosed on it a couple of years ago (so what if I can practically recite the entire thing??) so now it’s like with pumpkin. Apparently that was virtually all mum used to feed me when I was little and now I can’t stand the stuff. Except that with ‘Shrek’, deep down inside, I still love it.

Sad huh?

Running out of things to say…

Bye.
