So, I didn't go to school today...

Most of school is pointless in my opinion, here's an example of why:

Once, I was in the library on my own doing P.E. work (long story). So I had my fairly thick book about bones, muscles and how the heart works (fascinating stuff). Well, half way through the 50 minute lesson, I've finished the whole booklet, which was supposed to last the whole term. I dunno, am I just really smart? Because I don't think that's it...

I don't like school. I don't go as often as I should, yet I get better grades than quite a lot of my class. I hardly study. I'm pretty sure why I get good grades is because whenever I miss school, my mum makes me do heaps of the work that I would have done at school. Since it takes less time to do it at home than at school, I usually finish halfway through the day and spend the rest of the day doing more work.

So, school sucks in my opinion.

Also, what is with teachers that don't like kids? What is wrong with you?!

After years of us being annoying do you grow bitter? or have you always hated kids? I wish I knew, then maybe I'd be more inclined to do what you say.


Lately, my mum has been reading Seth Godin's Linchpin. I have to say, it's awesome. Seems like me and Seth Godin are on the same wave length...

P.S. My brother has introduced me to Florence + the Machine and The Temper Trap. I love them. I recommend them to everyone! Unless you're into that crap people call "Mainstream".

Well, bye!

Messy Curls/Messy Waves

So! Here comes a tutorial your way. It's for messy curls, or waves, depending one what you want...I'll explain more later

There are small differences, but it's more obvious in real life.

1. Spray a heat protectant and working spray into your hair.
I use Redken Headplay 12 and Paul Mithcell Seal and Shine.

2. Turn on your curling iron and brush out any knots in your hair.

3. Take random pieces of hair and wrap them around your curler, curl up to a few inches away from your hair line, hold for a few seconds and release. Curl in different direction (i.e. yurning the curler towards you and away from you)

If you want messy curls, leave the hair on the curler for longer.

If you have a side fringe, curl the end of it.

4. Once you have curled some random pieces on top, turn your head to the side and pick random pieces from the bottom and curl them half way up. If you have layers, then curl the bottom hair up to wear the layer start.

5. Fix up any too bouncy curls.

6. Spray some hair spray on the curls and a lighter hair spray on the waves.

Well! There you go, I hope anyone who's actually reading this enjoyed it!

First Post...wooh!

So, good evening my non-existant readers. Let me tell you about myself for starters...I live in Qld, Australia. Brisbane to be specific. I'm 14, go to school like a normal teenager and I love shopping (cliche, I know).

I hate sports, other than horse riding, not my cup of tea.

I'm spoilt rotten by my Dad, I know, and frankly I'm alright with it...oddly. Apparently I don't act spoilt. God, I hope not. I hate those girls flaunting around with their designer purses acting like they own the place...that comes up a lot when it comes to horse riding, the snotty girls that think they're better than anyone (even if they're horrible riders ha!).

I looove love lovey animals. I have a dog, a horse, a cat, over 20 fish and a cockatiel. My dog's name is Joey, he's adorable and scruffy. My horse's name is Cougar, but he's nothing like one, a total woos. My fish don't have names as there are so many of them and they look very similar. My bird's name is Geoffrey.

Here's a picture of Joey and I don't have pictures of any of the others yet...

I like to do my hair in different ways and I love dying it different colours. Right now it's a copper browny-ish and I love it!

Makeup's not my business, can't do it. Other than foundation, concealer and mascara, I'm hopeless. People always say people my age shouldn't wear makeup anyway, so I'll just go with that.

I read and write fanfiction. It may sound dorky, but it's fun and there are some good writers on there! I'm only a little ashamed to say that it's all twilight fanfic... I love writing and love getting feedback on it, but I'm too afraid to show it to my Mum or friends.

I have a weird habit where I press control+S after I write something long, even if it's on a website and not in Word or anything...I just did it before and I hate that noise my computer makes at me when I do it.

I like games, but mostly super mario, yoshi's island and other side scrolling platforms. I looooove little big planet! Best. Game. Ever. It's adorable.

Pretty sure that's enough to know about me that anyone will care about. Besides, if anyone is actually reading this, they'll find out more as I go.

Oh! Nearly forgot, I take Japanese at school and I love it. I'm not very good and I've been doing it for around 5 years, but I really want to get better so I can go to Japan and order food!

Okay, so bye now!
