MY UPCOMING WEEK: 

This week sees me returning back to my regular school days. Oh, how exciting! *Sarcasm* This Wednesday it's Anzac Day. Usually I'd be happy about a Public Holiday, another day to absolutely nothing. But no, I'm really worried! Very anxious indeed. I have to march with the school band throughout the big street in my suburb. I have to start the marching song AND end it! I play the bass drum and I'm so nervous I'll stuff something up. AND the drum master has the softest voice in history and she can't use the stick properly at all! AND I have to go exactly the right speed otherwise the war veterans behind me won't be able to keep up. Imagine if I went to fast! ARGH!!! It is going to be a very long day!

Even more nerve-racking news, I have a Philosophy & Reasoning exam on Thursday/Friday which I haven't studied for AT ALL! I have an English oral on Thursday, and I need to fix up the DVD player thingo for the oral coz I gotta show clips from a sitcom (I'm doing Kath & Kim). I hate it! My English teacher is crazy. She's old and she does the craziest things. She was talking to us when she walked out of the room to get something still talking and came back into the room in the middle of a completely different subject! She was talking about something completely different! None of us knew what she was on about! And then there was the time when she stood frozen at the front of the room for about one minute thinking about something to say. She just stood there. I almost laughed out loud.

Anyway, there's a plus side to this upcoming week. ACTING TOMORROW NIGHT!! WOOT!! I'm so excited. Anyway, I don't know what I'm doing, I just wanna act again. I'm so deprived!

Last week, I went on the school leadership camp. It was so much fun. I made heaps new friends. I did twister buggies, sort of army cars and now I really wanna drive. Just 9 months to go!! YAY!!  I got really scared doing rock climbing... not my thing AT ALL!! There was a moment where I was hanging almost upside down. SO SCARY!!! I went canoeing which I love! And motor boats were crazy too! I wanna go again!

Two of my friends went to Supanova, this sort of anime/comic book expo thingo. I didn't go, but they went as Jack Sparrow and Elizabeth Swann from Pirates of the Caribbean. Seriously, they look EXACTLY like them!! They told me they got TONS of people taking pictures and wanting hugs. Now I really regret not going!!!

 TELEVISION:

THE SIDESHOW WITH PAUL McDERMOTT
Did anyone catch "The Sideshow" on Saturday night on the ABC? It was absolutely hilarious, so entertaining! A brilliant variety show, and one my new favourites! - Saturday 7:30pm (ABC)

THE CATHERINE TATE SHOW
I've only seen one episode of this show, but it is absolutely hilarious! Everyone has to check it out sometime! - Wednesday 9:35pm (ABC)

NEIGHBOURS
This week, Pepper is held hostage by Mad Mary, but why? Also, Lolly is finally leaving but apparently it doesn't happen until May which is annoying. - Weeknights 6:30pm (Ten)

BROTHERS & SISTERS
Aside from "Heroes", this has got to be the year's best new drama. It is so dramatic, moving and funny. Check out an episode - Monday 9:30pm (Seven)

MUSIC:

MAROON 5
They're finally back, and yet again they've created another brilliant catchy tune. Check out "Makes Me Wonder" it's brilliant!

TRAVIS
At first, I thought "Closer" was by Snow Patrol, but then I saw that it was by Travis. This is a brilliant uplifting song, everyone has to hear it, it's very sweet. Also, reminisce on Travis's greatest hits with "Why Does It Always Rain On Me?"

SOPHIE ELLIS BEXTOR
I used to be a HUGE fan of Sophie Ellis Bextor - remember "Murder on the Dancefloor" and "Get Over You"? Now she's back with another catchy dance tune "Catch You". I LOVE IT!

LIOR
Listen to "This Old Love" and "Autumn Flow". They are absolutely sensational!
