Nothing much interesting has been happening. Uh I guess I'll just update about what's been going on at school.
Okay, so last Friday was the year 13's last day at high school, ever  so we had Prefect's assembly. It was pretty crazy. Some yr13 girl got too drunk and fell off the stage and got a concussion, so the ambulance came to school and all that. Yeaaaah. Hope I don't get too crazy next year huh.
We ended up missing out on period 1 and 2.. Which was semi-good. It's always good to miss classes but I missed my bum subjects (Math and Legal studies) so that kinda bummed me out. I was hoping to miss Physics because I had my electromagnetism test (which I totally winged) haha.
Ended up with about 20min of period 3, which was English. I got the timed essay we did on Wednesday which I completely did not plan for.. I even walked extra slowly to English that day to miss out on a few minutes of essay writing.. I wrote really slowly too so that I didn't have to complete the essay haha. I was pleasantly surprised when my teacher thought my unfinished essay was 'interesting thus far' and 'oh, what a shame' that I didn't finish it. I was just like  and thinking, "Are you serious you thought it was interesting!?" Rofl
The committee lists came up during lunchtime, and Wanqi informed me that I got into the Peer Tutoring committee before I even got a chance to check the noticeboard. Yay  Leilei got into Careers, which is good because that was her first option. I'm in the same committee as Wanqi so that's double happiness haha! I'm proud to be part of the Peer Tutoring committee 2010 whoop whoop.
Curious to see if Lauren got the position for swim leader I checked the sports committee list.. And didn't find her name next to 'Swimming'. I was honestly really shocked. Instead of her name I saw the words 'Applicants Needed' and I was like OMFG LAUREN DIDN'T APPLY!? Immediately I went to the Sports office to ask Ms Thomas if I was eligible to apply. She told me to write a letter to her stating why I'd be a good swim leader (which I have already completed  ) I'm so stoked, I really hope I get the position of swim leader 2010!
Lauren came up to me after training on Saturday morning and asked if I was going for swim leader, and I said yes! She then told me she applied but didn't get the position because she got accepted into Student Council instead (which is a more prestigious committee, good on her!  ) and couldn't be in two committees at the same time. She then gave me tips as to how to write my application because she didn't want Kelsey getting the position. Kelsey doesn't even swim! Haha I'd be damned if she got the position over me.
Okie dokie I've exceeded my break by half an hour so I guess I better get back to the books. Fingers crossed I get good news on Tuesday about my swim leader application.

| I guess I owe an update because I haven't updated for so long.
Okay, so I quit HPK. Big whoop. Hahaha. I'm already into my first week at United and it's gone surprisingly well. I really enjoy training. Firstly because I don't have a crazy coach who screws you over no matter what you do at training. Secondly because the sessions are a whole lot easier (on 2nd thought it's not exactly easy, but I manage to train my guts out for every session). And thirdly, I don't know why I said thirdly because there is none.
I've lost 2kg since I started training with United!  I hope it somehow continues (I have no idea how I lost weight if I'm training less hours and less ks, but oh well).
Uhm, exams are coming up in less than 2 weeks, so I should really start panicking (or already be panicking). Today's prizegiving so there's a half day at school and there's prizegiving later tonight, but I'm not going to both school or prizegiving because I'm "down with an ear infection" cough cough. Hahaha.
Shall drop by HPK later before land @ Unisports to say farewell.
Okay, I really don't know what else to type.. so I guess this is goodbye.
P.S. I can't be stuffed updating about Mal's party today. Maybe the weekend

| Highlight of the day:
We were doing pull at training, and we're really clear that for Gary's sessions, pull means band only and no pullbuoy. So we weren't surprised when Gary tells Peter to put his band on. Peter goes ahead and ignores him. He pushes off the wall anyway and starts swimming. Gary got so pissed he threw his mug to one side and jumped into the pool and onto Peter -- with his clothes and shoes on. He then shouted at Peter to get out and go home and not to ever ignore him again.
Well someone needs anger management more than me.
