no winter ball T_T but pancakes :D
Well, the spring concert for Saturday was superior in every aspect. Singing went well. Everything was fun. Annie played wonderfully, again. Found out that Elise Cole COULD have taken me to the Winter Ball after all *strangles someone random* BUT, instead I went to the pancake parlour with maddy and annie and phoebe and emma and mark and it was huge amounts of fun and involved the ordering of a Chocolate Strawberry Jubilee by Phoebe and I. DAMN. Yum.
So we stayed there until about 11:30 and then wandered outside and got accosted by drunk men TWICE. And felt very glad that we had done self defense last year.
Today I did some homework...not nearly as much as I should have, considering I have a maths test tomorrow. Bugger. And then I cleaned and earned a little money, and organised my clothes for overseas, and we went out to the Woden food court for Father's Day Lunch, which is probably a very pathetic thing but LOTS OF OTHER FAMILIES were doing it. Including Mr Gwynn-Jones, who was with his family at the table next to us ^_^;; And then my mum and I went shopping and I bought new sneakers that are not horrible and manky like my current ones. And then we walked home, a VERY good thing considering how much junk I've been eating lately.
Also had my first drive in an automatic car. My GOD. So EASY. Mum and I now want to swap Clio in for a small automatic but my dad is firmly against it, so I will have to learn manual driving at some stage. But at least I CAN DRIVE in an auto.
My mother has found an Etype CD at Impact Records. Has some new songs on it and the cover is all psychedelic and stuff. Also, mother now, and I quote, "cannot listen to classical music". She now plays Enigma, Moby and Etype loudly all day long. It's her midlife crisis, apparently, but DAMN is it an enjoyable one for the rest of us.
It's only just sinking in. Wow.
Oh Teegs, if you were planning to hold a sleepover the weekend before I leave can you tell me soon so that my mum doesn't organise something over the top of it?

What would your Japanese name be? (female)
brought to you by Quizilla
Ichi. Doesn't that mean "One"? So I would be this Japanese equivalent of Neo, only with wisdom (ie. more than two brain cells). Cool. Speaking of which, my project for the plane trips to and from Europe is going to be teaching myself basic Japanese. Go me.

just thought i'd remind you <+|:) promise to dance on at least SOMEBODY famous's grave for me, please?
and what was up with these drunken men?
no subject
um. first group lurched up to us and one said "do you ladies wanna come to shooters with me and the boys?" and we replied with a firm "no, we're good" and thankfully they were still sober enough to leave us alone after that. second guy came up to me and annie (obviosuly VERY stoned) and asked us where the nearest taxi rank was, and after we told him we didn't know just STOOD there next to us. so we sort of ran and hid back inside the entrance to the pancake parlour.

arrghh. another horrible self inflicted mental image ><;
yeah, one of your ancestors is FINE - they were probably feudal lords or something, who would be suitably enraged.

I hate drunk men.

actually it was a bishop, who was probably relatively anonymous and i casually strolled upon his grave then quickly side-stepped when i realised what i was on. ^_^
no subject
...I'm sure he was pretty pissed off though. should have kept an eye out for thunderbolts from the heavens.
no subject
and i don't think bishops get thunderbolt rights. that's only corrupt popes. in other words, steer well clear of Eugenius. in other news, taking notes on BUFFY is the weirdest thing i've ever done. and i'm REALLY scared i'll be way over time.
no subject
on the theme of buffy, I don't suppose you want to lend me season 7? and IS this sleepover the weekend before I leave happening or not?
no subject
can't lend you season 7 right now, i'm using it for my oral, it's not ordered properly and mel's got it booked next. but one day, yes.
sleepover will hopefully happen, and i'm planning on it. but i can't get my parents to commit to ahything this early... i will start asking though.

my warren fetish goes UNFULFILLED FOR SO LONG -
aughh, i will stop being awful now. i have too much assessment anyway, and frar deserves them more. as long as i can respectfully lodge my request for the holidays? *looks andrew puppy hopeful*

does this mean 'seph needs to make a post soon?
no subject
...i am officially a meta posting plebe ^^;;
and YES! if 'seph would post, it would be great *big grin*
no subject
didn't think of the april-bot. glad mero has good taste in SOME things. though he probably thinks spike's jacket is awful and leather and girly, right?
no subject
That man named Spike, while almost as rakishly attractive as myself, disgusts me above all other things. Not only is he under the MISTAKEN - and I cannot stress this enough - impression that wearing leather causes him to appear 'cool' as opposed to wrapped in black shiny cow skin, he also bleaches his hair quite hideously. Sometimes you can even see the ROOTS. It is quite painful. Anya does it much more nicely.
I, ah, understand that you were in contact with my horrible wife recently?
This is between us, but...
How is she?
I mean of course, how spectacularly crashing burningly has that detraisse little debancle of hers failed so far?
