when people use words like "darling" and "honey" and "sweetie" and "sugar" etc but really condescendingly?
i hate it because its meant to mean something nice.
and its really really uncreative and clichéd.
stuff like "THINK AGAIN, DARLING"
which i do hear people saying
why dont they come up with something a bit more interesting?
if you're going to insult someone, at least do it with style.
i also dislike this person who keeps posting bulletins about this band, saying that you should buy like EVERY version of the same single just to support the band so they make it big.
urm, if they were that good then they'd make it anyway.
and, if they were a band that deserves this sort of respect, they wouldnt care about record sales, they'd care that people heard and enjoyed their music.
arseholes.
(and the band in question sucks, like really really really does. i like one song by them, but they cannot write lyrics to save their lives. also, the band members are all ugly, but i guess this is not that important really...still >.>)
skins series 2 soon! im sooo looking forward to it, but apparantly its meant to be a lot darker..should be good 8D
i have a french talk about school to write but i cba
cette année j'ai choisi la (le??) francais, l'anglais, les maths, la biologie et la chemie (SP.)
mon matiere prefere est la(le) francais, comme je deteste tous les autres. l'anglais ne m'intresse pas, les maths me confondent, et la biologie et la chemie sont enneyeux. a l'avenir, je voudrais aller a l'universite pour étudier les langues - francais et allemand, peut-etre.
je trouve que mes profs sont gentils et serviables, et je prefere les profs qui communquet avec sa classes, c'est plus interessant pour les eleves et a mon avis ils apprendent plus.
(i dont care that my grammar/spelling/whatever sucks, its spoken so i can just mumble whatever bits im not sure about. it is also far too short and i lost where i wrote down the hw so i dunno if thats really what i'm meant to talk about)
time for tegan and sara!
yeah i was looking through some of these soap set things i got for christmas and one of them was called "fallin' leaves"...thats pretty close xD i'd totally send it to you as a present if it wasnt expensive and weird. maybe i'll get a picture of it.
blahblahblah no real news to report, procrastination prevails and i want a new phone, also i got a new brolly yesterday that i like a lot because it is polka dot and frilly.
Alex is a 16 year old boy with amazing enthusiasm and talent for music. From the age of 8 he collected music awards, even playing for the Queen. But Alex has cystic fibrosis.
He takes 50 pills A DAY, just to stay alive. He has to be hooked up to oxygen at night.
Imagine a big farmhouse kitchen table, completely cover it in medication, and this boy will get through it in a week.
Whats worse, is all of this has left him partially deaf.
For such an amazing musician, I'd imagine that is devastating.
He plays such beautiful piano and organ, and he has SUCH a passion for life. He doesnt seem to let this disease get in his way. He is learning to conduct an incredibley difficult Bach piece (magnificat or something? xD)
it is actually heartbreaking how much sheer talent this boy has but with such a horrible disease.
"Lets value what we've got."
(there was a program about him on, and I think that hes a really inspiring person..and its music-related, so i guess it deserved a blog entry >.>)
TRANSLATONS DONE
i'm never ever going to speak to a french person about outdoor sports. so that was quite a waste of time.
anyway, watch this right now
one of my favourite songs ever
for fallen leaves - listen to the original of the drugs dont work! that cover is alright, but the verve do it better. another good song of theirs is bitter sweet symphony, but thats pretty well known anyway.
i get to do a presentation on bats and the law next week.
also, my dad is building a[nother] computer, but apparantly this one is going to be very very good so i'm hoping i could get guitar hero for it. im quite bad at guitar hero but i still think its fun, and thats all i'm really interested in :D
todays lessons:
double english first, did nothing. made xiang tell us about all the rides in alton towers and we predicted our grades. i reckon BBCCC.
chemistry - girl who normally sits with me wasnt in, talked to other people, did no work
then PE, which turned into SS - had a laugh
double bio - watched presentation, went on computers, was given bat presentation to do.
tomorrow: H's BDAY! mucho funs to be had.
also english, chem, maths, french and double SS(yasssss)
TRANSLATIONS.
dont let me on the internet. must do hw!
I cant STAND chemistry. i have the most hopeless teacher in the world, who does not teach us most of the course, does not provide us with textbooks and when she does make a pathetic attempt at teaching it is rushed and half baked.
i dont seem very angry but believe me i am.
its ridiculous - im going to fail something very important because my teacher doesnt have the time to teach us.
i dont have the time to teach it to myself - seeing as my english teacher doesnt bother teaching, i am already teaching myself one difficult subject.
its just so fucking frustrating. i cant understand chemistry. i NEED proper teaching to have any hope with it.
and dont forget one of my useless french teachers as well.
UGH.
going to alton towers!
(thats a big theme park in england if you didnt know)
super-exciting
i get to take a bus at midnight with my schoolmates.
The weather's grim, ice on the cages
Me, I'm Robin Hood and I puff on my cigarette
Panthers are steaming, stalking, screaming
its a shame theres nothing like david bowie anymore. i love blackout
THE HIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they're coming back to the UK in spring!!!!!!
not anywhere me!!!!!!!
i'm begging my dad to let me go to london to see them.
seriously, if you want good live music no matter what genre of music you like, go see the hives.
in other news: no bowling tomorrow, shopping instead. doing better in french. doing worse in chemistry. still owe people christmas presents, will owe birthday presents soon aussi.
also need suggestions on how to become a well rounded individual so all the universities love me, answers on a postcard PUH-LEASE.
courses considering applying for - french, german, italian, psychology, polish, politics, media studies. only not all of them obv.
yknow i've actually never been to london, i really want to go cos like camden and thats meant to be amaaaaaaaaazing.
it is like right before my exams though :|
och well.
xiang brought me back a purse from china! (purse=wallet in america-talk. we call what you call a purse, a bag or handbag) but it cost like 20p xD
im listening to such weeaboo music, i would be so ashamed if i cared what people thought of me. i dont even know what they're saying, its like WA NI PU KA KA ME SU KI TO KI SHI DE LA WAAAAAAAAI! and i'm not like being racist and slagging it or anything, thats actually what it sounds like. meh, i'm enjoying it.
also, alton towers school trip! if i can cough up £40.
my fringe ("bangs") needs cut so badly, ive been side parting it all week and its such-a-hassle! i cant be doing with that every morning. otherwise i'm just blinded, and not even in a cool-emoly way, i just look like i have no eyes.
i realised today i actually miss chinese dancing, even though i was making a complete idiot of myself in front of the school on regular occasion, it was kind of nice. NOT the clothes/hairstyles though. but mrs a was like a control freak about the whole thing, but still made us choreograph it all ourselves. and she kept telling me my fingers were not phoenix-y enough, complaining that the kirbys kept coming out my hair, feeding me pot noodles and casting me as the man and making me wear a stupid hat.
ooft. thats enough for one round kiddiwinks, enjoy that piece of shite.
still excited at even the merest chance of the hives.
