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 say, that it was pretty difficult to get out with others, as most were away somewhere out there, or have gone skiing with friends or family. That was fine, so I turned my attention to preparing myself for school next term (lame I know, but it had to be done). With a shocking report card for the past semester, it brought a severe reminder of what would happen if this continued on.

On the bright side, I did manage to spend some time with friends. I had coffee with someone on their birthday, and made people happy. Lame I know, but it’s what I do best.

Spending money is something I (and possibly everyone) do very well, so I bought myself a few things to prepare for Europe at the end of the year. Lame I know, but it had to be done.

I suppose that this holiday was not full at all, but the time to rest was certainly welcome.

I know that sometimes, you think I don’t make any sense at all. To that I say never mind, because it shows how difficult some minds work.

It was a good three weeks, but reality must come back sometime.

Today was mufti day. The Student Council (which I am part of), raises money to put to a cause. Also there is usually a positive vibe around the place, as people can express themselves truly. I’m really tired after counting lots and lots of money.

I was on the train that evening, and saw a few mates of mine at the station. I had my laptop with me, and I showed them photos of a concert yesterday. They were impressed, and we talked about photos for various occasions.

It is through this which I realised that having connections with even the most remote people in the year group, is key to maintaining a good relationship with everybody. Getting yourself known for the right reason is something that is a bit difficult in a large group, but that is what I have done.

Today was two of my friend’s birthdays. I gave them both presents. One got a candle, and the other, five dollars. They were really really happy. The rest of the day, I kept the happy vibe going. Until I checked my email sometime in the afternoon…

I got an email from one of the mothers who is organising the formal. (BTW In all honesty, this year’s formal is going downhill). She replied to my email about how to submit photographs. (There will be a screen at the formal showing photos of us. I am coordinating the photography). She called me “rude” for trying to convey information and calling this situation my problem.

Seriously, we are doing a lot of work for the formal, and you are not realising that. For the photography, I have been making announcements, putting posters up etc. It’s not my job to get photos from everyone, it is the responsibility of the people to give photos to me.

Please judge for yourself (after this break). (more…)

The next month or so will be busy for me. The amount of school work is increasing, and so are the other commitments.

You may know that I am in the choir. We are actually going to be on the glorious Television later in the year as part of a choir competition. I am also going on the choir and orchestra’s Europe tour at the end of the year. New music will have to be learnt.

This means that Twitter and all the other networks will be looked upon less now. I will not update as often as I can.

Thanks for all your support with reading this blog and viewing my photos and Twitter and etcetera.
