Camp, shopping & movies!
hi!! Sorry I have been MIA for most of the week - I left for camp early tuesday & got back late thursday, then I had work thurs night, and I was out all day yesterday. So sorry if I haven't commented on your blogs yet, I've managed to read a few in my spare time, but after I have finished writing this I will go and read any I have missed so far! ![]()
yeah so I had ecology camp this week out in the bush! I was kinda dreading it because I really hate camps, but this turned out really great!
I was so annoyed though because I was planning on taking heaps of photos to put on here but my digital camera suddenly stopped working last week, and when we got to camp none of my friends had remembered to bring one!
We had to meet at uni early tues because the bus was leaving at 8.30am, and when I got there my friend Erica was sitting on the ground with all the luggage while everyone else was standing around talking, and it turned out that she had had a massive night the night before and was really hung over!
and when we were on the bus she said she felt really sick, then she went and told the bus driver she wanted to go home! So she arranged with her dad to pick her up in this dodgy suburb where he lived so the buses had to detour to get there and no one but us knew what was going on so everyone was staring at us.
But yeah I can't believe she missed the whole camp! If she had of lasted another couple of hours she should have been feeling better.
When we got there we quickly got off the bus to get a dorm so we didn't have to split up (there was me, Dean, Chloe, Craig, Ben, Hannah and Jamie), but there was still room for like 5 more people, and these 3 girls came up to the door to see if there was room left so they ended up staying with us but it was so awkward with them there! They didn't really talk to each other & when we were talking they would just sit there and watch us! Weird. We pretty much could do what we wanted throughout the whole camp - we only saw our teacher briefly at meals, and for a little bit on the first day when he was explaining the task we had to do while we were there (some transect thing), and the place he was staying was like 5kms away or something. So for each night we were there everyone got extremely wasted. I think I was like the only one that didn't drink! One the first night Hannah was so drunk & she kept disappearing, so Chloe, Ben, Dean and I went looking for her out in the bush and we could hear something so we shone the torch on her and she was on her knees in front of this guy who had his back to us & was leaning against a tree! So we were like omg and just took off, and we didn't see her again for ages so it was obvious what eventually happened there, but it was so funny because later when we went to bed, she was still gone but when she finally did come back we all sat up and started interogating her about it!!
She still hasn't told us the full story but the guys were teasing her for the whole rest of the camp, and everyone called her Gobtanna.
But it was so funny when we went to bed before Hannah was back everyone was so rowdy, and those 3 weird girls must have been so annoyed at us! ![]()
On the second day our teacher drove and me & my friends to this fire tower in the middle of the bush (I take back what I said before - this was the only other time we saw him), and when we got there he goes to us "now your not allowed to climb the fire tower....but if you choose to then there is a hole in the back of the fence over there!"
then he drove off and left us in the middle of nowhere.
Most of us climbed to the very top except Chloe because she was too scared, but the tower was pretty old and it was quite windy up there so we didn't stay on it for long. Then we walked back to the camp which took like an hour, but it was good because I got a tan because it was super hot out there.
That night everyone got really drunk again, and this one girl was just off her face and fell over in the girls bathroom & hit her head on the sink or something and was unconscious on the floor!!!
But the next morning she was alright though she had a shiner around her eye! Hannah was super drunk again as well, and she was still gone when we went to bed. I dunno how much later it was but we woke up to all this noise outside our dorm, and it was Hannah & all these guys making such a commotion, and when she came in Craig was so angry and he goes to her "tell your f****** friends to f*** off", and then because the door locked when she came in, this one guy outside tried to get in but obviously couldn't, so he banged on the door so loud that I though it was about to come crashing down, then he banged really loud on the side of the door, so Craig, the alpha male that he is, leaped out of bed and swung the door open and yelled at them "f*** off you f****** c*****!!!" and they all just scattered away!
So much other stuff happened but I can't be bothered writing it all!
Now I'm on mid semester break, but I have to do numerous assignments and stuff so it's not gunna be that great, but I'm going to see Colbie Caillat in a few weeks! I can't wait because she has such a great voice!
Yesterday I went shopping and to the movies with Caitlin, and we saw Wildchild. It was alright but there were heaps of annoying people in the movie, and all these super annoying tweens in the cinema. Then after I bought the Ting Tings, new Pussycat Dolls and two Yeah Yeah Yeahs albums! and I also bought this book called 'Angel Uncovered' by Katie Price, and this awesome Zoo York bag.
Loved Gossip Girl this week!!
Queen Serena is awesome! Though I prefer Blair being on top, it was nice seeing Serena not be boring.
and I'm so glad that stuff with the Lord and Catherine is over because I was getting kinda sick of it. The new season of House started here on wednesday, but I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.
I hope everyone has a great weekend! ![]()

Industrial, awesome uni lecture & tv stuff!
hey!! omg today I got an industrial piercing!
It kinda hurt but only for like 3 seconds as the needle went through, and its fine now. But it's going to be hard because I'm not going to be able to lay on it for ages, and I remember how annoying that was with my other ear when I got an earring at the top. I went with my friend Amber for moral support, but I didn't tell mum because I knew she would try to talk me out of it or something, and when I got home she was not impressed! and my sister keeps making a throwing up sound everytime I walk past!!
But it was my decision and I have wanted one for ages so I don't care if they don't like it.
I wish they would be more supportive though. I will post pics on here when my ear is less swollen lol
But here's a pic off some website of what it basically looks like http://www.tattoolicious.com/pics/pierce/Sean/INDUSTRIAL.jpg
The other day I had the best lecture ever at uni!
It was straight after we had a 3 hour break and our faculty had held a free bbq for us where they gave us free alcohol (which I was really surprised about because it was lunchtime & we had clas$ after). And yeah so many people drank a lot and everyone was being so rowdy in the lec because they were all really tipsy and stuff!! I was one of the few who didn't have any though, but I spent the whole lec just laughing at everyone because they were being so hilarious!!
I was sitting next to Ben (the british guy) and he was one of the ones who drank the most and he was so funny. He actually bought a can of beer into the lecture and drank it in there. I was so surprised he got away with it! lol so yeah nobody got much work done that day. ![]()
I'm so glad all the new seasons of everything are starting!!
I haven't watched 90210 yet because that starts on monday here and I have resisted watching it online because I want to watch it on the big screen. I've seen Gossip Girl though!!
I wish Dan and Serena didn't get back together, they are kinda boring now. and Dan is pretty annoyung. I also hope Blair and Chuck don't end up together because I want Blair to be with Nate, or if those two can't be together I want Nate to be with Serena.
Nate's storyline at the moment is pretty interesting but I don't think him & that older woman are going to last much longer.
Song I love atm - The Ting Tings: "Shut Up and Let Me Go" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StP-yIQeT2o
Have a great weekend!! ![]()
90210, weird guy, Wii fit & kickboxing!!
omg there's this really weird/creepy guy in one of my units at uni that I have on mondays, and he's in my group in the lab for it. I didn't want him in our group in the first place, but he just came and sat with Chloe and I at the beginning of the semester so we didn't really have a choice. Last monday was the fourth lab clas$ we have had for this unit and for the others he had been slightly strange and annoying but not too bad, but last monday was really bad. We had to do some stupid exercise were we had these maps that showed fault lines & volcanos and stuff and we had to answer questions about it, and this guy moved his chair right next to me so he was basically sitting on top of me, and just kept watching reading everything I was writing, and then at one stage without even asking he just grabbed my pencil case and just started looking through it! and last week we had worked out that one of his team mates on his rowing team is friends with Chloe, and he is like obsessed with it!
I got a Nintendo Wii the other day!! My sister (Meg) and I went halves in it and mum & dad bought us Fit!
ohh the coolest thing happened yesterday morning, because at the circuit clas$ I go to with Caitlin we had to do a bit of kickboxing, and when it was my turn the teacher held the bag because Caitlin wasn't holding it right (
I didn't go out last night because I'm prob going out tonight with the guys from uni, so Caitlin & her sister Fiona came over to play the Wii and watch Juno! yay I have finally seen it now! I though it was really good but I hate the songs on it! ohh they are so annoying.
Ok well I am actually at work right now lol so I prob should finish off my paperwork so I can spend the rest of the arvo on the internet.
It feels like summer!
Hey everyone!
I have had such a great day today so far. I had a circuit clas$ this morning with Caitlin which was fun, then we went to the beach to study while getting a tan!
I only ended up writing out a few pages of notes because the weather has been so great lately that I just felt like laying there listening to my ipod. I went to the beach yesterday as well just for the purpose of getting a tan, and I think I was successful!
I'm so happy that winter is almost over, I can't wait to summer so I can go to the beach everyday!
And then tonight I have a pump clas$ which I am looking forward to.
Omg yesterday in my origins & evolution lab, the 3rd year clas$ next door to us were disecting sharks and it smelt sooo bad!! and we had to go look at it & it was so sad because one of them had babies in it.
Great something I have to look forward to because that's one of the units I have to do.
I went into the city with Erica on wednesday after uni and bought the You're the one that I want Gossip Girl book. It's the last one I had to get and it seemed like every bookshop I went into had everyone but that one. So I have almost finished the prequel, and once I have read this other one I will have finally finished the whole series! ![]()
Last sunday night I went to the marina with my friends Danni & Amber. We went into this cafe for a hot drink, then we went into the tav to see if our friend Hannah was working, but she wasn't so we went for a drive along the coast. Danni kept on honking the car horn as every guy she saw walking down the street, but I would have thought she would have learnt her lesson with that because the other week we were driving around the club district and she honked the horn, and the guy started chasing after the car!!! Omg we all were like "drive Danni quick!!!" haha it was kinda scary though.

Your mind is in disturbia, ain't used to what you like
hey! The title for this is from that awesome Disturbia song Rihanna sings that I have just recently discovered!
Uni started last week and so far it's been pretty good except for having to get up so early. I'm supposed to get up at 6.30 every day so I will have enough time to get ready, but last tuesday I accidentally set my alarm for 7.30!! So it was the most major rush ever, and luckily I just made it in time.
Tomorrow I have a three hour break in between my lab and my two lectures in the arvo and there's a tug of war comp on campus where groups of 5 can enter, so Chloe, Dean, Craig, Ben and I were thinking of entering even though there's no way were gunna win cause all the sports science people will prob be entering. Last week we just went into the tavern that's on campus for the whole time, and Chloe went back to her house cause she lives on campus, so it was just me and the guys and they were playing pool for ages so I just watched them because I think pool is totally boring so I didn't want to play, and Ben drank so much beer which I couldn't believe because it was in the middle of the day!! So he went into the lecture tipsy. ![]()
omg I found out the worst thing ever today, with my ecology unit for the labs we have to do stuff in the bush that's around the campus, and Dean told me he was talking to this girl that did it last semester and she said that everyone got at least 20-30 ticks on them!!!
omg omg omg that's like the worst thing ever! So I spent the whole lecture planning what I am going to wear to ensure that none can get on me, and I've decided that I'm going to wear my super high pink & white striped socks that come up to my thighs and my 3/4 black leggings under my jeans, a long sleeve top which i will tuck into my pants and tie a hair tie around each of my wrists, and have a jacket over top of that. ew it will be like my worst nightmare if I find one on me! ![]()
umm not much else has gone on, I didn't really do anything on the weekend expect I had work on saturday. I was starting to get a headache so I slept a lot and watched season 2 of sabrina the teenage witch. Then on sunday arvo I suddenly got really motivated and wrote out all these study notes for uni! ohh and I also watched The Hottie and the Nottie the other day (the movie with Paris Hilton in it). I knew it wasn't gunna be the greatest movie ever, but it looked pretty funny so I really wanted to see it!
I liked it, but I normally like cheesy movies like that!
haha I just had to post this hilarious video I discovered tonight thanks to Perez Hilton!
It's the YES dance - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyqUj3PGHv4
Have a great week! ![]()
