Friday July 25. It’s Barker Swings night, and the choir will be performing. Tonight felt special, not because I was wearing the red and black for the last time, but because it was the last time we were performing from our ‘battle’ repertoire. JAllington, our conductor, called it “the ridiculous”, but we all loved it. [...]

This is the end… (for now)
As the end of the holidays fast approaches (next Tuesday), it is time for me to ask myself, what have I done that was worthwhile? You know, every minute of every day in your life should be lived to its fullest. I’d like to share the answer to the above question with you. I must [...]

Just ridiculous.
So, it has been two weeks since the start of the holidays. And how do I feel? Really lonely. I hear you asking, shouldn’t holidays be restful, fun, enjoyable? Yes of course, but there is an underlying problem. It’s so bloody quiet around town and on the tubes. No one is in Sydney, everyone has [...]

The Formal
Last night was the formal. I thought it was going to be a great night. Unfortunately for me, it mostly wasn’t. To put it simply, the formal was a great idea at first, but it quickly loses its panache as the night progresses. We started off with a three course dinner. Entrée was a green [...]

Who am I?
I sat down yesterday evening and thought about how interesting my life is. It wasn’t. It seemed that my life was made up of too much sitting down. Sitting down in front of the computer, doing school work, or just messing around. I wasn’t getting out much at all. Hey, think about the number of [...]

The dormant writing bug
In my mind, I have many ideas for a blog post. Unfortunately, they don’t ever make it here, because my mind gets lost in doing more important things. It’s like a sickness that you catch, you know you’ve got it, but it doesn’t affect your body. Anyway, hopefully the upcoming school holidays will help. It [...]

After today’s debating
Tonight, I had debating at school. The topic was about health, but it was pretty hard. My team put up a very tough case, but the team from the other school, just got the better of us, but not because of how they spoke, but what they spoke about. Anyway, I took the loss fine [...]

Valentine’s Day
Thursday was Valentine’s Day, and love was certainly in the air. People were giving roses to others, it was a happy mood. I had always looked upon Valentine’s Day as a big woop. Until this year. This year I went through with giving someone a rose. I’m not that rich, so one was enough. As [...]
