And that's my...life as it happens...

School :(

Wednesdays are the longest day of the week :( a full day of school plus an extra two hours in the afternoon for 2 units of Studies of Religion...

As per usual i caught the bus to school and after a little persuasiveness my 'beautiful wife' Jess came up to join me...until Anita decided to come between us...:[

Anyways on the bus being about 1000 degrees outside there were of course windows opened...and this can be a bit of a nuisance for girls who have their hair a certain way as some of you may know...

Jess: "see Anthony, Look at my fringe, i had it just the way i wanted and now, because i came up the back for YOU, look what's happened" *points to hair*

Anthony (Me):*stares at Jess for a moment* "...Jess you look beautiful"

Jess: *serious face turns into a smile*

Anthony (Me): *smiles back*

Crisis averted...but i did mean what i said, And so ended the morning bus trip :)

Now to start school :( Advanced English was the first period and Mrs Cohen being away for the next two days had set us some work...Which Mrs Cahill, our substitute, followed down to the letter.so it was a very boring and uneventful lesson...what a surprise :|

2nd Period was Ancient History which i looked forward too, mainly cos i we have a really good teacher, Mrs McManus, and i enjoyed learning about it :) After being required to read a few pages from our text books we began a class task which required each student to take on the role of their specialty chosen by our teacher...After telling the other class members what each other students was and their role...we were told our task...a 'Hypothetical' excavation to be done as a group...the rest of the information was to be disclosed at a later date...an uneventful but enjoyable lesson :)

Onto Recess, Sitting at our usual table, Matthew Favetta - Fav, Rhys Voysey - Speed, Myself and our honourary yr 11 friend who's actually in yr 10 but for some reason sits with us...Nic Broad-McGregor - Nic. So a pretty relaxing recess, if not long...Matt finding a empty pill packet for 'period pain' on the table and calling Kayleigh's name out while throwing it to them telling her not to leave her "period pain rubbish everywhere"...turns out Matt was right, it was hers :)

The bell rang for the end of Recess and i made my way to the timber rooms...stopping in the senior courtyard to say hello to my wife Jess ;) giving her my ice-block as she asked...then i left her with it (i'd had a couple already and wasn't up to finishing it) which i later saw she took a bite and then threw the rest out, meh i didn't rlly care...and so on to the timber rooms for the double period of Industrial technology, with Mr Prior who despite his mental raping due to his extremely high expectations turned out to be a pretty cool teacher...We spent the double in the computer lab using this excellent piece of Software 'Google Sketch Up'...Wasn't too bad of a double lesson...

After the double it was lunch but we had to go to this Yr 7 Peer Support Camp meeting...Being in Yr 11 i was chosen as one of the Yr 11's to go on camp with the Yr 7's...Mr MacAteer gave us quick chat about expectations and what not...and scheduled another meeting. That took up most of Lunch but we walked to the senior courtyard to spend the last few minutes of lunch...where i again said hello to my wife :)

The bell rang for the end of lunch and we made our way to B2 for our Studies Of Religion class...ended up moving to a computer lab where we did some more work...lame :( don't rlly wanna talk much about it, cos there's not much to say...moving on to the next period and last of the day...general Maths :|

Covering two or so topics Mrs Harris Sped through through the work...and before we knew it, the period had ended...however we did end up getting a fair bit of h/w...and that was the end of the day for most everyone in the school except for my Studies of Religion Class...Which was scheduled for Wednesday afternoons from 3:20pm til 5:00pm...

after a very very short break after 6th period...we began working on the work from period 5 when we had Religion...longest hour of my life :(

Pretty much continued until 20 past 4 when Mrs Whiting let us have a quick breather...after returnign we sat around the 'Promethean electronic learning board' and finished the last half an hour of the lesson with a lecture on Buddhism...

And so ended My day *sigh* very relieved it was over thank God it's only once a week...as i was outside i helped the girls move a picnic table to our area...along with some help from Fav we moved it over there with limited fuss...to say the least...

and that's my...life as it happens.

First Day Of School

New Pants, New Shirt, New Belt, New Folder, New Shoes, New Homeroom, New Classes, New People...you get the idea. First day of being a Senior, was a little daunting at first.

Seeing all my friends back at school with our new senior uniforms on; my year group was lookin pretty good ;)

All the lads wearing the khaki pants as opposed to our junior grey ones, and the girls wearing green skirts...we all dressed the part hahaha.

Was a pretty early start to the day waking up at 7:30am as opposed to my 12 noon in the holidays :) Was pretty keen to wear the senior pants though...kinda weird i know.

Started the day pretty well, got lift to school with Jess - whom i might say is an excellent driver x. Had to sit on the Basket ball court and do some admin with Bathy and the Hogster, Lame.

But i officially have Free/Study periods, YEW!

For some absurd reason the schools decided to change their homeroom system to vertical lines which means i have a couple of kids from every single year in the one class, Gayness, At least i have Jono and Micki :)

First Period i had which turned out to be the Second period subject cos we missed first due to admin and stuff was Ancient History...Was fair keen to get into some work, sick of bein a waiter at Dad's restaurant. That feeling wore away though hahaha.

Had Recess or as we call it 'AM BREAK', me and Matty Fav had to move a table so we could sit down, Gayness, our group had declined so we were down on numbers :(

Double Music followed first part was ok getting straight into, practicing for the Welcoming Mass but the second part was extremely dry going over our course content, ZZZZZZzzzzzzzz.

Then Lunch a.k.a. PM BREAK was short and boring. Moving straight into maths.

General Maths seems easy enough for the moment. After a slow start to the lesson having to get text books and what not. Algebra...AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!

Was glad when the bell rang for 6th and last period, Indutstrial Technology with Mr Prior, was fair keen at first then he decided to open his mouth...all i heard was you have to get a BAND 5 OR 6 to pass in my eyes a BAND 4 is a FAIL to me...

Saved by the bell, Mr Campbell cutting our lesson short so we could go back to hoomeroom...to help the Yr 7's settle and catch buses easier.

Got a lift home with Jess again...Gotta love her...not a bad First day at school...

that's my...life as it happens.

Australia Day

Marking the birth of our Great Nation the 26th of January. Pretty swell day about 1000 degrees out side though.

So many ways to spend Australia Day...Beach, BBQ, Party...Beach BBQ Party...okay so not so many ways...Mine was gonna be spent at the Vietnam Veterans Australia Day celebration.

Was dreading spending the day with my grandparents at their friends celebration but turned out better then i expected.

Early start to the morning made our way to the restaurant then to their house. Slow start to the event spent most of the first hour waiting to go home. But as things got going i was starting to enjoy myself...

• Did my waiter thing and served some of my Om Noi's Vietnamese coleslaw to all the guest - was a big hit amongst the veterans.
• Sat on the verandah in the shade and watched Tony cook the Lamb on the Barbie.
• Offered my service to carve the lamb...Leo was a little hesitant at first but Tony gave some encouragment.
• Using my awesome ninja/asian skills i carved up that lamb.
• During which my good friend Jess came home - it was her house.
• Ate Lunch and what not then i reluctantly went home.

Fast forward an hour and a half Jess and i played 9 holes of golf on the Moruya Golf Course with two of my mates. It was the last 9 holes we would play these holidays and the last 9 holes i would be able to play with Lewis before he left for his schooling in Sydney.

• Lewis and Rhys in one cart, Jess and I in the other.
• Played the front nine
• Horrible start to say the least.
• Some improvement over the nine.
• Had a smokin caddy - Jess.
• Good way to spend your last moments with a friend - Lewis.
• Great way to end Australia Day.

And that's my...life as it happens...
