The Crash And Burn

Are the words 'mayhem' and 'hectic' similar to each other? Because somehow that's how I felt last night was for me. But anyways, I am quite happy to say that today was a steady day. I got to wake up late, took time to take some photos and get dressed and I didn't seem to dread cleaning my room either. It feels weird that I've got to wake up early tomorrow to catch public transport back to school in the morning for a 2 hour class.

 My best friend, Jeric had come over just after I finished getting ready and what-not and chilling for half the day was really cool. We got to catch up on each other, our goals, pet peeves and of course as close friends do, caught up on a little bit of gossip there. Guilty. It was awesome though. Plans about Moomba changed so instantly last night but I enjoyed myself either way.

If you didn't know, today's actually the first day of Fashion Week in Melbourne and I'm absolutely stoked about the Frankie Magazine Runway show that I could just afford for my Simone and I. It's not a long way until we have a taste of foreign textures, patterns and the styles that will be introduced to us. Did I mention that somehow we managed to be seated in row A? This suddenly makes me feel important as reserved seats await for us to be served with drinks, nibbles and high quality views of everything. We are so lucky and blessed to be going. This is like meeting your most favourite inspirations. I like that feeling.

Today I felt like basic so grey and black made the cut. And i hadn't worn these shoes in a while either.

I'm much too tired to explain how this day has been. It's been exciting, annoying and boring. I had travelled so early in the morning to get to school to find out what time my lesson was and it turned out that I have vocal lessons at 1pm, therefore, I didn't need to wake up at 6:00 in the morning just to be there in time for 9:00. This first week is already much too confusing. we have 3 different timetables and the school hadn't put all our subjects in just one timetable. No doubt that leaves me to make my own. So pretty much I had a vocal lesson and a band rehearsal today and most of the time leading up to my lesson, I just chilled with a couple of sick as new friends. I really like them and they seem to like me so we just get along really well. You can really tell that Australia is surely a small country because we all seemed to be connected to each other somehow. 

I have one class tomorrow which is Music technology and then I get to go home early but I have planned to go home with the Boy since he has placement in the city and we're quite close. We just have a 2 hour difference to when we finish but I really don't mind checking out that Salvos store I saw on Clarendon.

I thought I had a day off on Wednesday but because our class had grown over the holidays, they had to redo our timetables and separate our rehearsals to different days. But at least I don't have to worry about waking up early. In fact, I wouldn't mind enduring the long morning sleeping in my bed. I don't even think I need to worry about transport until 1:00pm. So rehearsals are good for the day.

I don't really remember what my Thursdays are like but I do think that I'll be there till 5:00 once again with two classes starting at 1:00 or 2:00.

As for Friday I have no clue when my Stagecraft class is, nor does anybody else in my class.

It's been an extremely long weekend and to top it off, I'll be walking into the completely unknown this week as I will be at my Uni for a couple of days doing all that meet-and-greet stuff that first ear Uni students do I guess. Last Friday our church's own conference called The Summit had started and for the rest of the weekend there were a couple of guest Pastor's preaching at out church. It's just a really good feeling to know that I am a part of the growth and love of the church. This was probably the only time that all people from all our campuses were all squashed into our, now, massive auditorium to join the significant event.

Now Saturday was just too long but it doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy it. I had to wake up quite early in the morning to get to church on time for Kidmania. It was probably THE longest morning I've ever been in Kidmania. It's great to be working on the Kidmania team to help nurture and teach the kids that God loves them ever so much. But when the toddlers are forced to wake up much too early in the morning they get cranky and grumpy and really really bad tempered. You end up with wet pants, sore eyes, ripped tissues and big tanties and when there's 3 leaders and 20-something children to look after that usually only stay with you for an hour, let's just say that doesn't mix well. But after those 2 1/2 hours had passed, my best friend, Sim picked me up so we could go to Kitchen Workshop at Crown to celebrate her 18th birthday. happy birthday to her and I love her. But once that was over, I was destined to go back to The Summit to look after the kids again. this time it felt like t dragged because the children had realised that they were away from their parents for too long and so they ended up turning from angelic babies to wild beasts who scratch and pinch and bite and scream at you and other children. Luckily, home time meant sleep time which meant I could finally rest my legs from walking to a fro.

On Sunday it was Mac receiving day. As in, my parents were to buy me my first laptop because they finally felt that I was actually worth spending money on. Knowing this had probably made my day feel as long as ever but it was all worth it when i got home and my dad greeted me with a "We didn't end up getting it", but turned out he was only lying because he's a liar and all. Usually people take pictures in Photo Booth but Ink bet me to it reclaiming that he "travelled a long way to take this picture".

Today, I had orientation at JMC with my friend Jason who's currently living at our place for a while. It was an interesting day. Jay and I figured that most of the people in our class were metal-heads. There are 2 bassists in our class and only a couple of drummers and most are either vocalists or guitarists. A majority are female. Turns out that the studio where we do prac is the studio that the band Jet record at when they're not on tour. Cool right?

As for the rest of the week, tomorrow I have an audition so that my teacher's can figure out what band/group they'll put me in to work with for the rest of the year. I hope it's a great group with people who have versetile scheduals for the week, who are laid back, and I guess who are interesting and are cool to work with. Our first class together is on Friday and Jason and I might just have a ride there so it'll save us about $6.80 for the day. So that's pretty much my big week ahead.
