the happy snaps

the insanity/the forgetting

Slept in until about 12:30 this morning (sorry, afternoon) not because I'm incredibly lazy, but because I was at the AC/DC concert. Which was insanely EPIC.
People getting their boobs out for a camera (which got broadcast to 70,000 odd (drunk) people on a big screen), Angus doing a strip tease right down to his AC/DC undies... and there was something else I was going to put down but I forgot...

Anyway, it was very good. I shall stick some photos up in a separate post.

Community day at school tomorrow. Not actually quite sure what it is but it means no uniform, no lessons and no repetition.

Oh, and before I forget:
  • I'm actually starting to like the idea of people reading my blog.
  • I forgot what I was going to write here.
  • I swear the bra I have on had beads on it.
Good afternoon.

the strange

I realised I hadn't blogged in a while.
So I decided to create another meaningless blog about slightly funny, a little strange and 'you'd understand if you were there' moments of my Tuesday.

It started this morning. Alex said something that I thought needed repeating in legal studies.
I wrote it down and just started adding to the list instead of doing -possibly very important- school work.

This is what I ended up with:

  • "Andrew Lloyd Webber is a wank." - Alex, Legal Studies, period 1 today.
  • "If the Queen wanted to go bump off Camilla..." - Mrs Chapple, legal studies.
  • "Put the baby on vibrate." - Alex again, legal studies.
  • "If you want to be Muslim, worship Satan, be Catholic, you can." - Mrs Chapple, LST.
  • "...until my phone shagged itself." Taylor, yesterday afternoon.
  • "It's a rhyming threesome." - Me, accidentally (should be in the English curriculum)
  • "Hold her up there like the Loin King!" - Bridget, Religion.
  • "You're in big, BIG school now!" - Mrs Barry, Religion.
  • "And that wall opened up like those openy-up wall-y things." -Bree (Year 10 dux)
  • "Like a self-powering vibrator." - Me ( I meant to say battery...)
  • "Are you still going to be wanting your sucking stick back?" - Bree, describing a straw.

One day of spontaneous stupidity in a few dot points to fuel my boredom.

Oh, and NBN are going to completely screw up Top Gear with their ridiculous, incomprehensible, unreliable scheduling.

Goodnight.

the revelation(s)

For a very long time I've been trying to figure out what I want to do after school. I always like having an answer to the almost cliched question of "what do you want to do?"

Since I was two until the middle of last year it was Medicine. After realising I probably couldn't put up with the hours, I turned to Psychology. I've always been fascinated with the brain and remember when I was little I'd ask questions that I know the answer to just to see how peoples thought patterns worked. Although, the explanation at the time wasn't quite so complex.

After thinking about the actual employment possibilities of studying psychology, I've had second thoughts.
That and dad keeps rattling off different career choices because he thinks psychology is a stupid idea.

I'm kind of leaning towards law. Lawyer-ism had crossed my mind back in year 8 when I was - borderline - failing maths. I like the idea of it. And although I know people think the complete opposite of me, I really like a good argument.

Actually, I'm pretty sure I want to do law. Even if the UAI (or ATAR or whatever acronym they've changed it to) is 92.9 at Newcastle and 99.65 at Sydney.

Now the only issue is, what course?
I can't do straight out law because it's a graduate entry so I'm trying to choose between Bachelor of Social Science/Bachelor of Law and Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Law.

The Social Science one sounds really interesting and good to put on a resume but Arts includes Psychology and a few languages.

So I've gone from being sure, to changing my mind to being sure again to considering my options to being totally confused to being sure to researching to just not knowing.

I've always thought not knowing was a good place to be but now I don't know.

Maybe I'm simply aiming too high. Suppose I'll just have to wait and see.

Have a nice Wednesday.
