Hi, my name's Liya and i'm an alcoholic. I've been sober for 16 years now. It was tough but I've made it through.

So yeah, about me. I go to Sydney Girls, in the same group of friends as Dora but shock horror, I don't do debating or public speaking. Let's see... the two things i relish the most are independence and passion. And by the way, I'm writing this post only hours after going on a three day, two night Duke of Ed hiking expedition. If I start to talk to gibberish, it's because I've fallen asleep on the keyboard which currently looks infinately more comfortable than the tent tarpaulin covering the hard ground for the past two nights. Dora shares my pain.

To other resident authors: Roca, Kelvin and Morris I know. Pat: are you Patrick Chen or Patrick Duffy?? And Karen, I was talking to Linda and Livia who moved from your school to mine and they commented that I reminded them of you. Since I don't write in technicolour, I'm not so sure...

And Becca, in answer to your request to view my imaginary blog it is just that... imaginary. In answer to why i don't have a blog, i could go on a rant about privacy and the good old-fashioned pen and paper journal but the truth is, i know that if i create one, it's ultimate fate will be that of kelvin's... neglected and wanting. But if you're really nosy, I post stuff on the ooomph blog which would really make no sense to you and which currrently has the worst banner imaginable and dora and myself are not to be associated with the ghastly bad taste.

Well then, I guess I'll see most of you on Thursday. Happy Easter and according to our student welfare teacher "relaxing holiday study!"

Sweet dreams to you all,

Liya (pronounced Leah, not Liar because that is not what I am)

PS. Kelvin, apparantly I'm to challenge you to an arm wrestle. They say the odds look good!

Well hello hello

Things have changed here since I last said that.
Things have changed in general
For debaters:
Karl Kramp has begun! Newtown was one of the first schools to start, with a glorious victory over Cantebury GHS. Speaking times have increased to 9-11 minutes, which does create much fun! 11 min at first aff (me) is slightly excessive, I'll admit, but god it's fun!

General:
Hello to the new authors! In answer to Karen's qu, I am from Newtown PA, and I know of the two boys you mentioned. I don't think I've ever spoken to them, but I know of them. I take it you do a PAU thing or somethign with them??
Hello to Liya also. I want to read your blog!! (Yes, I'm nosy)

So hello again to all. I shall hope to see most of you at you know what on you know when. I hope the hols do prosper and that the weekend is much much fun!
From your
~Sock girl

 

'Fined for walking slowly'

"Los Angeles: An 82-year old waman was slapped with a $US114 ($A156) ticket for taking too long to cross a street.

...

A mototrcycle policeman pounced, telling her she was obstructing traffic before writing out the fine"

Today was the athletics carnival, and so will tomorrow. I've given up on participating - if I ever thought that I had the focus to read in the midst of a crowd of hundreds - I was right. Problem was, Codey has an exceptionally irritating voice that reaches into frequencies over the P.A which drill into your skull. Really annoying.

Shaihan is the biggest clown! I wish I had my phone so I could video what he did when the topic of conversation (I use the term 'conversation' loosely- what it was, much more than anything, was the unmistakeable sound of Kelvin getting paid out) turned to his new - say, interest. OOOOOooooOOOOOOooooOOOOOoooOOOOoooh.

Anyway, that being said, Shaihan was a clown, and I wish I had footage to make a .gif set on a loop of what he did.

Shaihan: "oh kelvin! oh kelvin!"

Haha. Ah. Shaihan and his resourcefulness in turning a common sports water bottle into a instrument of absolute hilarity.

Before I leave, the Eurotrash girl tells me she likes my gazelleskin wallet. I tell her I would like to tit-f*ck her and then maybe cut her arms off, but the music, George Michael singing "Faith" is too loud and she can't hear me.


 The carnival lacked the atmosphere of calm I needed to focus on Dracula, so out of frustration i started on "American Psycho" (as you could probably tell).

Tried to find Ms. Lim all day. Tsk. Spotted her a few time on the marshalling area. Where could she have been? Need to hand her that slip. Should've done that last week...

Early morning tomorrow; going for a walk with Victor and Anthony (other grades, other people) around the CBD. I am not looking forward to ANZAC day.

I should come clean no,w Kelvin- Karen, myself and the rest of the world are all in kahootz to weedle you into believing that you are an annoying person. So nerr- Karen is not my best friend in the whole wide world (yet), Kelvin. Just because someone thinks that you might be a little annoying, doesn't mean they're my friend.
 I could go on, but I need rest.

Night.

hello people!!

hehe this is probably kelvin's one BIG mistake inviting me to write here. as you will soon see, i never shut up. LOL so.. yeah. but dont kick me out. i need someplace to rant.

anyways i dont know any of you.. BUT i probably know people who go to ur school. SO.. that means im not TOTALLY random..

um.. ok. about me.. (lol not that u actually care, but hey, whatevr..)

- i am NOT and i repeat NOT a spoilt brat .. but yeah im an only child.. like MOST asian children..

- umm.. i don't do any work.. like dude i go to FORT STREET for crying out loud. we're known for doing drugs. but im a good girl.. i dont do that kind of stuff. i want to live a long and prosperous life.

- i.. am 16 ..!! YAY! IM LEGAL! omg i still need to get my Ls.

- and i play PERCUSSION! which is the coolest ever. like omg its just too cool for school. ha im so LAME

ok. theres no more to me. SO im going to ask all of you people whether u know these people..

Becca: ( u go newtown school PA right..??) um.. do u know Ken and Lucien from yr9/10??

Dora: (SGHS yea?) arr.. do u know robyn?? and these new girls who came from my school.. Trina, Livia, Linda etc? My cousin also went to ur school.. but shes old and graduated 2 yrs ago.. her name was harriet.. u probably havent heard of her..

well.. thats all i know..

peace out.

<3 karen

since this thing is kinda dying i thought i'd inject it with a couple of new authors...so:

(i dunno if they're going to write anything though)

Liya: dora will know her. lovely girl, umm...very smart? what else can i say?
Karen: humph. well. what can i say indeed? "spoilt only child who goes to fort st." probably sums it up.

so. btw, karen has her own blog so if anyone is overly bored...

so we'll see what happens...

hmmm. i have spent much too much time thinking about primary school of late... ahh primary school... memories... all those moments of pure fun and embarrasment. anyone care to reminisce? yes i know they will mean nothing to me, or to some of the others... but its always fun to do anyway... well i always think it is... some of my friends decided to remind me of this just the other day...

 ok... i remeber when a friend was getting teased by some boys for having boobs which were slightly bigger than the rest of ours and i go "i thought boys liked big jugs?!" OMG I KNOW. I WAS 12. or something. SHUT UP. hilarious right? oh man... how very embarrassing. but still funny. and the best part? or most mortifying... my friends went and told the WHOLE FRIGGING CLASS. INCLUDING THE TEACHER.

and I ACTUALLY SAID "JUGS"!! how scary. and extremely weird.

yeah, so thats one of my memories... probably one of the most prominent. how about you people? anything, anything at all....?

Tell me you didn't just laugh.

Inspiration has struck.

(This was funny before brokeback mountain)

Gay cowboys eating pudding.

Bob: "Well Dan, looks like I've finished eating my pudding."
Dan: "Me too, Bob."
Bob: "Wanna explore our sexuality?"
Dan:: "Ok."

In light of freakish twists in expectations (this is an entry on Adosie's blog detailing a conversation with Blaise) http://manga.clone-army.org/t42r.php?page=165
Various references to Japanese culture, which are still funny, even to the un-enlightened.



And if you can stomach it, http://manga.clone-army.org/t42r.php?page=160

Proposition: Find me some pictures of hot half-breeds, Kelvin. I will answer with hotter pictures of various asian girls. Stop being so shallow, kelvin. Is that all women mean to you? So shallow. Tsk. And just to get this out of the way, I am an asian supremist . Supremist, supremist, supremist. Wun do-leh (pronounced, fobbishly, one-dollar. Incidentally, this is Cantonese for the exclamation: "I have found it.") Petallisation. Petallisation, petallisation, petallisation. The act of petallising. Retainer. One who retains. :\

My maths periods are all going to waste. I can't believe I actually spent the period arguing with Kelvin.

Totally meaningless post, so I really need some sleep now. (Getting ready for bed at 8:00 pm. Wtf?)

Regardless of the extra hour, my internal clock always f*cks over whether there's an hour less or an hour more. Lack of regularity makes me tired, regardless.

Louis: "Nick has changed to engineering studies."
Frank: "What's engineering studies?"
Louis: "I think it's when they study engineering."

Phil: "Man, why is solid snake so old in the new metal gear solid?"
Me: "It's to show change! lololololololol."

Such a disappointing day for High today.  A trend developed in our results as the morning progressed with only one minor deviation:

Yr 10 2nd VIII:        Last
Yr 10 1st VIII:         6th

3rd IV:                    Last
2nd IV:                   Last
1st IV:                    Last

2nd VIII:                 Last
1st VIII:                   Last

Not good.  Not good at all.  Sadly other sports have continued the trend:

Tennis 2nds:         Last (4 points from 84)
Tennis 1sts:          Last (13.5 points from 84)

Basketball 2nds    Last
Basketball 1sts     Last (2 wins from 14)

Cricket was slightly more successful with a semi-respectable finish at around 5th.

Winter is looking even worse.  Football/soccer may improve and possibly not come last as happened last year.  However we have no chance of winning a game in 1st grade Rugby (minimum losing margin will be possibly as high as 40).  Sad times ahead and sadly my sporting ability is low so i can't help.  Couple this with rumours that Waverley College are looking to enter the GPS competition and things are not looking good for sport at High (except in Debating ;).
