So, we got our school diaries today. They’ve clearly upgraded, as instead of just the school rules and the diary, there are about a hundred extra pages, detailing study techniques to the pictures on the Australian coins. We also have a periodic table, importance-priority SCALE and, get this, holiday study timetable. HA HA HA.
But by far the funniest thing of all was the page describing the student - teacher relationship.
“You are the bucket and the teacher is the tap filling you up.”
I AM NOT A BUCKET.
Unless of course I got to be Charlie Bucket and get Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory and go for a ride in Great Glass Elevators. But that’s not the point.
I AM NOT A BUCKET.

How cool is that?
I also have a new email address:- laura@laurasinclair.com.au
Although it kind of defeats the purpose of the whole, Dad, “Don’t give your surname out on the internet, or you’ll get stalked by crazy psycho’s with pasty skin and Harry Potter glasses.”
But whatever. It’s cool.

Don’t suck your own hair into the hairdryer. I now have a bunch of stupid short bits of hair. Tragically on the top. Sob.
However, thanks to the straightener I got for Christmas, they are straight stupid short bits of hair.

Here is a picture of me that the English department took. I’m the one sitting on the ground.
I’m not sure why they got us wearing blazers, since noone ever does (you have to go borrow them from admin). They also took pictures of us debating, computer-ing (sure it’s a word) and looking for books in the library. I find it funny that they pulled us out of class to take the photos.

Insert three year old crying sounds.
School starts in 8 days time. I think I want to cry. I know it’s going to (probably) be a good year. But all my teachers have spent the last 11 years of my education saying “just wait to grade twelve”. In a bad way. Also I have no idea what I want to do once I finish and I’d like to put off making any potentially life-altering decisions until I have some clue.
So, in short, I don’t want to go back to school, cause I just know this year’s going to go a lot faster than I would like.
I guess I could just drop out now…
Well that’s the stupidest idea I’ve had for a while. I want to put off decision making, not bring it closer.
Ick.

Don’t get varnish on your hands.
It’s hard to get off and it’s sticky. Also I smell like wood. Nicely varnished wood, but still.

I am so bored, I am varnishing the TV table.
It’s official. I’m pathetic.
In other, more exciting news, I went to see 27 Dresses last night, at Robina. It was funny. I liked it. The cinema was completely packed out. Like to the point that there were people standing up at the back saying they were going to get a refund, cause they couldn’t find seats. Which I find kind of weird, cause I’ve never even seen it advertised or anything.
Another tragedy of my latest cinema experience was that there were like NO previews (well, okay, 2. But still. There might as well have been none.) They’d all been replaced with normal ads. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! If I want to watch ads, I’ll watch the telly. (Previews are in a whole nother league and don’t count.)
Ooh, and I drove home from the cinemas. Yay for me!! It was dark and I drove on the GC Highway and I didn’t hit anything. I am so proud.
Varnish is dry, so toodles while I do a second coat.
My life is tragic.

Don’t get aeroguard in your eyes.
Although, no mozzies have gone for my eyeballs since, so I guess that’s a plus.

On the back of the Cottee’s cordial bottle:
We believe in making everyday drinking fun. That’s why our delicious cordials are a great way to help you get through your 8 glasses of water a day with a smile.
Cause I get so bored with my “everyday drinking” usually, I can hardly stand it. Lucky I’ve got Cottee’s so I don’t die of dehydration, purely because I’m bored with water. Yeah, drinking is such a chore.
