No I actually haven't gone anywhere.

I've just been really slack and haven't updated. Actually, a lot of stuff has happened. Christmas for example. That was fun. Ate lots of food, good time.

School finished as well, thank god. I graduated year ten, hooray. Now I can actually be classified as a senior, instead of just attending the classes. Even better news, I don't have to attend that stupid school anymore.

So school finished, meaning the holidays started. God I love the holidays. The first couple of days I slept, ate, and blasted the neighbours with music. Then i got my ass into gear and started socialising.

Though my parents got a bit up at me, and... requested that I clean up my even-a-cockaroach-wouldn't-survive-here of a room. So I did. I went through all my cupboards, under my bed, my wardrobe... Chucked out at least two bags of rubbish.

Now I've re-deisgned my room. It has polkadot bedspreads, white desk, new light-purple curtains... I'm going to drag my friend over, and we're gonna paint all over the curtains, and make a dew ajustmens to my wardrobe...

Who would really want to read this?

Screw all that, the good news is, I'm back!

Dear Santa,
I’m sorry you haven’t heard from me in a while, a whole year in fact. I didn’t want to disturb you from your busy busy life. How’s business going? I’m surprised it’s still going, considering all the other “Santa’s” these days.
Anyway, I’ll cut the small talk. I understand my notification of my wish list has come a little bit late this year, but here it is!

I’m not sure if you’ve been keeping track, but I have been a good girl this year! All year round, I promise. I was polite, honest and kept my mouth shut.

Most of the time.

I swear, that the thing with the chick in my math class earlier this year, totally her fault. If she hadn’t of insulted me, I wouldn’t of put super glue on her chair. She had it coming! And she got out of all right… sort of… And it was funny, you have to admit that.

And yes, maybe I have been a bit harsh on my English teacher. But, it was necessary. I was teaching her not to treat her students as if they were stupid! And, to give out better work. I still aced her class, even if I did mock her all the way through.

And, I did apologize to that guy. Even though I didn’t have to. Yeah, so I bruised his balls… a little… and humiliated him in front of his current girlfriend, as well as everyone in the mall… but I can justify my actions! If he hadn’t of been such a complete wanka and used me, then maybe I wouldn’t of done – or said – anything

Okay, so I wasn’t such a little goody-two shoes. But, had people NOT provoked me, then I would’ve been.

I don’t want that much for Christmas, if it’s any compilation. Just a pair of pink and lime-green gym boots. You know, the converse ones?
And the new Kiss Chasy album. And the old Gyroscope album. And the old Goo Goo Dolls Album, and the new Strokes album.

And some pink fishnet stockings, my old ones got destroyed when someone spilt stuff on them…

That’s all though. If I think of anything else I’ll email you.
Love, your number one ‘good’ girl,
Ali.

I’m a music freak. And because I’m a music freak, I go to a music school. And because I’m an even BIGGER music freak, I just also happen to work at that music school.

You ring up on Monday or Saturday, and you’ll be greeted with: “Hello, Amadeus Music School, Alison speaking.” Because I’m the receptionist, and I take all the calls.

Funniest thing happened today. My boss/music teacher’s 5:00 lesson was cancelled, so he was having a break. He went to the little grocery store across from the school with his briefcase/bag/thingy, got something to eat and went… somewhere. And silly him, being the kinda guy he is, forget to take his bag with him.

About… half an hour later, no joke, I saw this with my very own eyes, a Bomb Squad filed into the little grocery store across from the school. They came out holding the bag and carefully placed it in the middle of the car park. Police were barring off the scene and everything! I think I was too shocked to say anything.

What had happened was, somebody found the bag in that little grocery store and called the police. Then the Bomb Squad. Because they thought it was a bomb.

Who the HELL would want to bomb a little grocery store in the middle of Darwin!?!?!?

I’ve just come back from my friend’s sixteenth, which started… last night. I stayed the night; it didn’t go on for that long. Wish it did.

It started off looking like it's just going to be a quiet party with some loud music... then the alcohol came.

I'm not stupid. I had two cruisers, and that's it. I was a bit tipsy, but only a little, I swear. I refuse to degrade myself in anyway, and getting drunk degrades you. Besides, it was funny watching what the rest of them did.

Example: my friends started a food fight... with cheese. They really started to CHEESE me off... (excuse the lame joke...)

The boys taught me how to do these awesome flips into the pool... though because they weren't co-ordinated very well, I turned out to be better then them. Hehe.

Have you ever seen someone try to play guitar/drums when they're drunk? It was f*cken hilarious. (My friends brought their guitar, and the chick had a drum kit.)

Then me and my friend found a webcam, and went crazy. We took all these really weird shots... I should put some up. Have to get them off of my friend first...

Then about... three-ish it died, and people went home. I stayed over, and in the morning, went around with a permenant marker...

Today in my law class, we moved on to actually studying what happens in court.

*yawn*

Fortunately, my teacher decided to ‘lighten’ up the work today, and handed out a couple of worksheets. It was a page of random things that have been said, in court, by lawyers. And I thought my English teacher was stupid.

The youngest son, the twenty-year old, how old is he?

Now docor, isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning?

This was a conversation between a doctor, (obviously during a trial, maybe giving evidence, it’s irrelevant) and a doctor.

Doctor before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?

No.

Did you check for blood pressure?

No.

Did you check for breathing?

No.

So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?

No.

How can you be so sure, Doctor?

Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.

But could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?

Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and, practicing law somewhere.

I would’ve paid money to be there when that happened.

Today I've gone on a huge frenzy and added all these random people from add_me. And hopefully, all these random people will be BOTHERED to read my journal and at least comment on ONE of my posts, like I did theirs.

And I thought that they might want to know a little bit more about me then I've said. So, in cliff notes:

I'm a 'cute' punk, and have been insane since last... Thursday. (I went home and decided to cut my hair... complete random.) My teachers don't really like me. I'm a chocoholic, and need my daily dose of chocolate coated coffee beans. Otherwise, I'll turn into a giant pink monkey and go sit on everyone's goldfish. Not a pretty sight.

So, if your bored, and feel like chatting, add me. Please. Oh, and this is me:

Because my school does things differently, we change class every term, meaning we get a new teacher. Last term, I really liked my English teacher, because she was cool and understood us. (My class)

I don’t think this terms English teacher likes me. Today she tried to give me a detention, because I had “behaved inappropriately when completing the days set work”. My defense was, that I had done everything she told me to, and that I did not behave inappropriately, I just sat there and completed the work.

Personally, I think she just didn’t like my answers. But hey, if she hadn’t of set such dumb, brain dead easy work, I might have taken it seriously. I mean, come on, all we had to do was read a passage of a story, and then answer the given questions – wait for it – in sentence form.­ WOW! I haven’t done that kind of work since grade FOUR!

And I did answer the questions. Examples:

Question One: Did you work out from the clues in the passage what kind of ‘job’ is Rocky’s ‘first real job’?

Yes.

Question Two: Some people would say that Rocky is a neglected child. Can you find any evidence for this view?

No, but I can find evidence that these questions are stupid and pointless.

Question Three: If you were in Rocky’s position, what would you do and why?

I wouldn’t go back to school, because I probably would be given work that a grade four could complete in their sleep.

Today I felt like learning the guitar. So I caught the bus all the way to the stupid mall and spent $150.00 on a guitar, guitar case and guitar-teach-yourself book.

I don’t regret it one bit, I’ve been practicing like crazy. I can play 'Ode to Joy' now, oh goody. That’s pretty good, considering I didn’t even know how to hold one this morning. I just want to get onto the good stuff!

I also bought the Wolfmother album today. It was only released today, and I got it on SALE!!! WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE PUT THE WOLFMOTHER ALBUM ON SALE???

Unappreciative gits.
