Spring Cleaning

I’ve finished my exams and that leaves me with nothing but time to kill, so I’ve been working for the past few days with Dale. It was a gig at the Hi-Fi bar for a band called “A Sound Mind” they are actually pretty good. Anyway I was roped in after being given some vague details such as “meet me in the hall at 5″. The lights for the actual show were a bit of overkill for the size of the stage but it all looked good in the end.

Anyway today I finally had some time to relax and do what I have been saying I would do since June this year… Clean out all the junk from my room. I never realised just how much you could fit in my room. My desk alone went from this monstrosity…

To this work of art…

There was allot of crap which ended up in my room over the years and this is only half of what I uncovered under the piles of papers, boxes and cloths…

IT’s All Gone

Today was another day of bumping out fame from school and its all removed from the stage now so there doesn’t seem to be any chance of there being another performance any time soon. It was all gone within half the day which is a shame but that is the life of a production. It was also cool to see everyone wearing their vest today.

In other news i got a new phone after my old one went through the wash, so i am now going around getting people’s phone numbers but i still have the same phone number. I got a Sony Ericsson K610i. I’m happy with it so far and it’s not as bulky as my old one but there is nothing outstanding about it. Also my car has shat itself again. This time it happened to my Dad while he was down at Safeway.

I Finished It

I have finally finished Harry Potter. I had spent the entire day warning people not to ruin the ending for me. Some tried but I was to quick for them. I would cover my ears and start humming the tune to “happy tree friends”. Don’t ask me why it was that tune. Anyway the book was pretty good.

In other news… the new projector arrived for Aikman hall. It s possibly the coolest data projector I have ever seen. You can send images to it through the school network, including the wireless. You can wander around the building with a laptop and it will still project the image. There is also a feature to let you turn it off and on with your computer and you can have a custom logo on the screen which appears when there is no signal being sent to it.

P’s

Today was the day that went for my Probationary License and I got it. Yay! I got above 90% So now I don’t have to rely on other people to drive me places. That is as long as I don’t lose my License for some reason.

Happy Birthday To Me

Today is my birthday and it was…. interesting. I woke up to my parents coming into my room singing happy birthday, which scared the crap out of me as I was happily asleep and was not prepared for any singing. Then I headed down to school to do my English oral. The topic was performance pay for teachers and I was against it. Throughout my presentation one of the assessors was nodding along and smiling, agreeing with every point I was making so I knew then I was doing well. I ended up with 27/30, which I was very happy with. Anyway after that I was off to southland to have ‘Tech Crew’ put on Dale’s vest, and then I went to Castlefield to watch their musical. They are doing High school musical and for a junior school production it was good although you could tell which bits were done by a certain staff member who is controlling and annoying and which bits were done by miss Belly. While I was there it was good talking with some of the techies there and I was showing them some of the features of Castlefield’s hall that they might not have found or noticed yet. Finally, to finish off the day my family and I all went out for dinner.

Lego

Cleaning out our garage I found my old Lego and thought it would make a good image header my blog. Very colourful. Although the face does creep me out a bit. It’s just too happy for plastic bricks.

Happy Birthday Matt!!!

Currently I am at another one of Haileybury’s many performances in Aikman hall. So i thought that this would be a good time to wish Matt a happy birthday. Today Matt has turned the ripe old age of 18. He has survived another year in a world full of disease, natural disasters and George Bush style ‘freedomism’ I for one would like to congratulate him on his perseverance and his skills in staying alive for 18 years. Bravo, bravo.

In more news that is related to birthdays and me. It’s my birthday in eight days. Yay for me. Unfortunately though i have no idea of how to celebrate my birthday. I can never think or even be bothered doing something worthwhile. That being said, there is no reason that means you can’t get or even make me something special….to make me feel loved. :)
