excited.

*clap clap* YAY~ thank you to Shelley and Trang who have contributed to the blog. Your participation is welcomed although not so anticipated in Trang's case. I have to say, for someone who was the first to accept the invitation, is ironically one of the last to blog ==' TROI OI~

But nonetheless, I expect a lot of random things from Trang. Actually, to add on to her "changing history scheme", she attempted another one today.

The title on the sheet stated "The Arab-Israeli Conflict 1948-1996". It was fine when she changed her own sheet. But then she leaned over and grabbed my paper, scribbled on it and handed it back to me. I looked down at the paper to realise that she had put a line through "1948-1996" and replaced it with "1990-2008". So the title then became "The Arab-Israeli Conflict 1990-2008". O__O Keep in mind that she wrote the "new and reformed" date, in the exact font size. So it's not just miniature and obscure, it's there for the world to see. LUCKILY, it was erased immediately thereafter.

And she seemed to have invented a new "arm wave" move. If the action is done form the side it originally stands for: "stress goes in, stress goes out". However, if it is performed at the front, that just means you're being spastic. =] Well that's what i think, Trang will argue otherwise ^^

So, I've just opened up the preview of the yearbook and have to say that it looks pretty darn good. If we could've afforded hard cover, that would be perfect. I'm still in the midst of reading the intros. I came across a few things that I found quite interesting.

HARPER: "Each of you in your own way has made a permanent mark (not just on the tables in the senior area) on the fabric of Bankstown Girls High School"

BORG: "To mention the contributions of some is to ignore those of many. To highlight the misdeed of the few is to devalue the good deeds of the majority."
*WOOAHH~ now either he's secretly a philosopher or he's taking English lessons from Fitzgerald. LOL~ But how profound does he sound. He's a nice man though.

GUTTERIDGE: "Once again good luck, farewell, Aroha nui, Puang toi, xaatrek, aurevoir, sayonara and goodbye .. "
*I never knew he spoke more than two languages: English & 'Bankstown'

AHH~ Memorable quotes.

Mr. Saule:"Never miss an opportunity to keep your mouth shut"

Mr Fitzgerald: "Go deeper..say more..there are no right answers, only good answers"
*I can add to that: "i'll hold my breeath.." & "You did really well as a class, really well .. but now we have 6 months to improve"

Mr O'Keefe: "Ladies..and others"

I have to say, this was a classic moment in English Advanced history.
(Ms. Harper enters the classroom)
Mr Fitzgerald: "We're just learning about the excellent foppery of the world"
Houda (in a supposed whisper): "She doesn't get it!"
Mrs Harper: "I heard that..."
Houda (to make the situation better): "No, no it's because it's an English term"

Ms Stangoulis: "Be quiet you .. HEY HEY .. horrible child .. I've been lebafied"

Mrs. El-Haddad: “Girls, please, have some courtesy”

Mr. Dalton: “It’s about a 200 metre walk form the station”
Wendy: “How much is 200 metres?”

(Explaining why he has messy handwriting)
Mr. Dalton: It’s to do with my hand not keeping up with my brain, because my brain works so fast my hand can’t keep up.
*looks at Stephie > "ah-dah-soh" =]

IN TEN YEARS TIME..

Will Bev finally realise that sex is not a national sport, unless one is living in the novel Brave New World with such people in it?

"at least you achieved one thing while studying at Bankstown girls:
Nothing.
Nothing?
Nothing my lord.
But Nothing will come of Nothing…"

I have to say, Tasfia's review was so HER. LOL ~ Every single word could be imagined comign out of her mouth.
"“Jersey fever” had united us. We worked as a unit. Nothing could shut us down. Nothing, I tell you!!"

"Jersey Fever" is undoubtedly our most notorious event. We did it girls, we will always be remembered ^^

My recommendation is to read the farewell messages because they are light-hearted and endearing. Got to love those teachers XD
OH~ you have to read Ms Alembakis' message in which she constructed it in a "I have a dream.." speech. One of the lines was: "I have a dream that Shannon will be in class before me"
LOL ~ wow .. so wise ..

*gold star to us all for obtaining an award each XD
Shannon: the flower that bloomed over the years (ie that means you look better every year Shannon. No, they're not "trying to say.." anything haha~)
Shelley: perfectionist of the year (omg~ don't look now, but there's a crease on the corner =O "TRANG! let's swap")
Stephie: cutest baby of the year award (and~ "most likely to become a serial killer" ^^)
Trang: hungriest of the year (that's a given - well deserved trang)
and then there's me ..
"most likely to jon greenpeace" - the caption says: "save the whales..and the planktons!"
ahh~ good times good times.

And because I can't go without adding an image.. Tien was curious of my profile picture. I actually forgot what I wrote until I read my profile again XD



All in all, considering that this was only a draft, I hope the yearbook does get better. Thanks to my developed "photoshop eye" I suddenly see faults in many pages. OMG ~ SAVE ME! (melodramatic~~)

Watch me shed "a few" tears at graduation. Remember, my exterior sarcasm juxtaposes to that of my weakness to tear-jerking moments. But, I reckon our graduation is going to be one of the best. The best even? Considering the fact that it's at the sports club and not in the shitty school hall is a good reason to begin with. AHH~ 2 weeks away ~ I apologise for mentioning that >< *slaps self* I also apologise for ruining the yearbook if you didn't want to know - even though it's pretty clear you do want to know XP Anyways, enough from me. I'm hogging all this space with my complete bullshit. I'll go find a bamboo stick and whack myself with it now. (Stephie: ah-dah-soh)
