ho-humm,, changed the layout todayy..
i love it now. :)

alrittee, backk to business. we had another day of outlook.
this time we went to forest hill and mitcham.
i planned out everything last night, cuz i didn't want all the mix-ups and all to happen again.
and so everything went alrite today, except a few rough edges..

the morning was alrightt.

we took a tram down to springvale road.
and there was this old lady sitting in the disabled seat. to me, it seemed like she wanted to validate her ticket, but the tram was moving and i didn't want her to fall over, so i asked her politely. "would you like me to validate your ticket?" and she handed me her ticket, so i put her ticket into the machine and validated it. :)
it felt really good helping someone.
and she said "thank you" in return. :)

it seemed like a really good day starting off with helping someone!


and so, the journey went on, to aqualink first off.
and since we had a long time, we played around in this playground. :D

next destination was forest hill chase, for lunch. :)

after lunch we still had a lot of time, we went into big w, and i so wanted to get twilight, but i didn't, because i was scared that my dad would get angry at me. you see i don't get pocket money, and i asked him for money today because i said that i need to get midsummer night's dream book for english. so he gave me the money. but like at big w, i didnt find any midsummer nights dream book and instead i found twilight.
so, if i brought home twilight instead of midsummer night's dream, i was 100% sure that my dad was going to get angry at me, because i..lied to him.
so, i decided not to get the book. :(
maybe someday when i work, i'll be able to get my own money and buy that book for myself. :)

and then we went literally AROUND THE WHOLE OF FOREST HILL. how tiring it was can you imaginee. pooff.
finally caught a bus, but caught the wrong one still.
so we had to wait about 20 minutes to wait for the other bus, this time fortunately, it was going the right way.
training to heatherdale railway station,, well we were SUPPOSED to get off at heatherdale railway station, but noo. we didn't because the rest of the group decided to get off at mitcham, and like they were outside and i was still inside the train.
as we are in a democratic country, majority rules, so i had to quickly run out of the train. (i hope i didn't leave anything on the seats, because i didn't get to check. but i didn't open my bag or anything. so no, i didn't leave anything on the seats. :) ) BUT we got off the wrong stop. so we had to wait another 20 minutes for the other train to come.

there was this depressing song playing through the speakers of the station of mitcham.

finally we got off at heatherdale railway station.
tired as sht.

we still had to walk like 5 kilometres UPHILL to this childcare centre.
got some brochures and all.

and we got back. another 5 kilometres.

oh gosh.



finally, we got back home safe and sound, well we got back to plc at 4:30-ish and i had missed melba.

trammed home.

and really tired.

OUTLOOK todayy,, when i came in the school, there was like this frikin teacher she was like chasing after me and then she was like "YOU NEED TO GET A SCHOOL BAG." and then i was like "uhh yeah, but i thought we have community action today" (i said the wrong thing-btw, i said community action instead of outlook, but same thing anyway) and then she was like "I DON'T THINK SO.. BRING A SCHOOL BAG TOMORROW!" oh and she asked for my name. i was quite worried if i got into trouble or anything.

and like all of the other ppl didn't bring their school bag. and i'm serious like NONE of them did.
so yeah, i was like "whateverr"..

so that was in the morning, like at about recess we went on the 767 bus from junior school to box hill- the bus was frikin full of plc ppl. it was totally JAM-PACKED. like when we past this stop with ppl waiting for the bus, the driver waved at them saying the bus is full. LOL
hmm box hill central, went to safe way asking customer service about the scenario how the person needs a job and she can like work as a safeway checkout chic or whatever.

and then we walked to elland avenue, an occassional childcare centre. and interviewed the person. and yeah.

had lunch, and stuff.

omg aqualink is like right in between elgar rd, canterbury rd and station street.
but we couldn't find it so we headed back to school.

OMG we were going to take the 700 bus back to school, but then we decided to go on the 767, but that was a good choice cuz we met like these really hot guys, and they were twins! but they were clearly different, even though they're identical twins, looking at how they dress and one of them had like an earring on his eyebrow. lol.
they had blonde hair and blue eyes,, they look somehow familiar, but they couldn't have been, because they were surely the hottest guys i've ever seen. lol
i wish i could see them again, sometimes, one day..
or one of them would be alrite too. :)

LOL i was like on friendster, and then there was this advertisement that was like
who came first the chicken or the egg?, and i clicked the chicken (cuz without a hen, the egg wont be able to open, cuz it needs something warm for the egg to hatch.) and then it lead me to this so totally irrelevant page of celebrity soulmate thing, and then when i tried to close the window, it was like "are you sure you want to navigate away from this page, because you will be able to find your soulmate" so i was like okaayy..
awkwaardd..
lol.
well, we have outlook tomorrow, and since our group is SOOO organised (cough) we don't even know where we're going..

uh- oh,, disaster, disaster!

posties on sunday??

LOL we had a debate today.. well cassie and zoe were debating. :)
the topic was "that posties come on sundays"
zoe, for some reason, wherever she lives, gets mail on sundays, when clearly, everyone knows that people don't work on sundays, so there is no explainable way you can get mail on sundays.
cassie was trying to convince zoe that you cant get mail on sundays, but zoe kept on arguing that she did, and she always gets mail on sundays.
of course the rest of the group supported cassie, we all know that no one works on sundays, so how are you supposed to get mail on sundays??, also all the other people who past by-we asked them if posties come on a sunday, and they all said no.
so there, majority rules.
but then we all don't live in the same area as zoe- but still, everywhere throughout the world, or throughout australia at least, people don't work on a sunday!!
LOL
and this "debate" all started when we were all talking about when (which day of the week) the bins are put out in the neighbourhood strip. :)

twilight

how everyone at school's talking about it, i actually really want to read this book, twilight by stephenie meyer.
it sounds really interesting,, but at the moment the school's library's copy is on loan and reserved numerous times.. so i guess i should be patient, or beg to my dad for pocket money so that i can save to buy a copy of the twilight series. as there are many books following up twilight.
currently there is twilight, new moon, eclipse, and breaking down is coming soon.

i know this book is a million times better than harry potter. i don't really like harry potter (no offence to some people), but i know this book will be awesome.

community actionn

we had community action for the first time yesterday, and yes it was oh so tiring.
my partner's adela, one of the many boarders at plc. we went to elc, which is the abbreviation for early learning center. apparrently we got to choose where we wanted to go, but some people had to go to plc junior school or elc. Personally i would rather go to my primary school which is burwood east primary school, but alas I must not be selfish, even though beps (burwood east primary school) is closer to my house, elc is only of walking distance to the boarding house.

so, yesterday, Friday 25th July 2PM, Adela and I head off to ELC.
-deep breath- to be honest, i never liked little kids. and yesterday, made me hate little kids even more.

there were these annoying little girls (who come from a rich family of course) coming up to me and suddenly hugging me and asking what my name is, one kept on singing a random song, one kept on pulling my jumper, one kept on pulling the shoelaces of my boots, one kept on pulling my hand..
this was bad enough for me, but i did not know what lied ahead. it was "play time" for them, it was time for them to go outside and play. first this little girl pulled me to go play in the sandpit, and they were pretending that it was my birthday, they made "cakes" out of wet sand, and put dinosaur candles on top of them and sang happy birthday to me.
can't you imagine how embarrassing that was.
and then while i was talking to this little girl, one of the girls suddenly cried, apparrently one of the other girls said something not very nice to her.

so i moved out of the sandpit to the playground, they all wanted me to go on the monkey bars (which was unfortunately too short for me) andd go down the slide and the fireman pole.

it was certainly a tiring day yesterday, as soon as i got home, i had afternoon tea and slept.
i slept from 5pm in the afternoon and woke up today at 10am.

that is 17 hours of recovery from the tiredness of helping taking care of little children.

a long day was yesterday, and a rather short day is today..

BLOGGING

hmm well, we were on friendster talking about community action, which we was the first yesterday, with eunice when she told me to go on her blog. so i did, and it looks pretty interesting, considering that most of the boarders at plc also has blogspott cuz apparrently they blocked myspace, friendster, facebook, and all.

so, anyways, here i am writing my first blogg!! :)
