Well we had our first debate, and we lost. Yeah I know, not that great for my FIRST DEBATE! But apparently I speak well and improvise when it was needed. Our topic was Plastic Bags should be banned. Our first speaker laid down the team line which the opponent was meant to go by and they didn't. We got accused of saying that the only alternative for plastic bags was paper bag and they used some language that was... I dunno... a little personal. When I say accuse, I mean accuse. We never even mentioned paper bags because it wasn't needed (or we thought not) but yeah I put up an argument that an alternative to both is 'material' bags. I ended up looking at my South African friend as I was saying "And in South Africa they have banned plastic bags and if they don't have a bag to carry their stuff in then they have to carry all their stuff in their arms. Now if they can do this in a war ridden country why can't they do it here?" So they had to put in the word 'materials' when they spoke out about how paper bags AND materials weren't suitable substitutes.
I also got busted and said that Australia doesn't give a toss about humanity. We were in the sections about jobs (or I was rebutting on it) and I said that since people would be losing their jobs it wouldn't effect Australia in the job catagory. But no since Australia would be effected economically and the opposite team STRONGLY disagreed (which they didn't back up to well) I was completly wrong in saying that job loses in China, Thailand, Malaysia and India, wouldn't make Australians loose them.
I am too tired to keep typing... Until Next Time

I hate the buses.
Now don't get me wrong, I think the bus system here is great! For $2.00 you can ride around (back and fourth on the same route) for 3 hours, AND if you are a kid (go to school) or if you go to university then you get to ride FOR FREE! The only problem with this is that a certain type of person can also ride the bus for free (only way they could get around without fucking walking). I think these people would be alright if they kept to themselves, but some of them don't. They also seem to have no respect for personal space.
Think about this for a moment, imagine one of you biggest fears (shut up mum) was all around you, one was right in front of you and it was getting closer and closer. You're in a seat and you can't get away, no matter how much you twist and turn and try and move back into your seat, it keeps getting closer to you. I had that. I ended up getting very upset and having to move. No one did anything.
It's understandable because sometimes you just can't help. You don't want to get involved. You just don't care. I know people have their own shit to deal with, but a simple, are you ok? Would have been nice.
I did recieve this from 2 lovely women in the girls bathroom. They asked if I was alright and I said yes and thanked them both. Out of a whole bus and a whole mall/supermarket/shoppingcentre, they were the only ones that asked who I didn't know.
On another note I got my hair cut today, shortish at the back, one side shorter then the other, and my fringe (ok I REALLY don't know how to spell that) is now parted so I can see through on eye all the time. Sevvy made us hotdogs for dinner, they were yummy and he ran to the bus (my hero!) so that it wouldn't leave me behind.
I dunno what I am going to do for the rest of the night. I will probably play minecraft, getting all the cobblestone I need to make my giant house and then finally go exploring and start setting up various little resting points, and fill those up with items that I might need. Sorry that this is so short. If I get in trouble for what I have said on this but I am sorry. I haven't named anyone so I don't really see how, if you think I should delete this post (wow I am not even sure if I can) then please tell me in your comments and I will.

Debating
You gotta love being ready to go and then you mutilate your thumb on a piece of fucking plastic, (over exagerating) and then spend a few minutes trying to get a bandaid on! Oh well I made it to the bus just in time and that is the important thing. Anyways onto what happened today, I got a pie (beef, cheese and bacon), a giant horrible tasting cookie, watched the start of Othello, talked about bats in Geography (I can't remembered if I got bit when I carried and saved a little bat and apparently I have some horrible...disease if I did), zoned out in maths, learned about the Academic Learning Program (which will be hepful before I start university), talked about Charles Manson and other such things in Psychology which was fun AND went to my first debating. SEE I DO THINGS FOR THE SCHOOL!
It was interesting watching people debate over the topic: Facebook does more harm then it does good. The people stuffed up because they the positive side said that facebook only does harm and no good and the negative side said that facebook did only good and no harm. They had statistics and facts which made you tune in more and I really liked the whole bitchy thing about the Point of Interest (when someone interupts the speaker in order for them to answer a question about what they had been speaking about) and I was pretty much itching in my seat to join them and tell them points that I knew.
There was a cute moment when we were asked if anything good had happened on facebook with us and I told them that me and Sevvy lost contact for about 2 years and facebook was how we found each other. They also laughed at me/with me (I was confused) when I said that it was so easy for a 40 year old man to pose as a attrative 16 year old boy. Heh oh well they laughed and smiled, that I what is impotant.
There was a boy though, who was rude during his whole speech. He didn't really care about his topic obviously and when he was called on to answer a question not only did he answer sarcastically 'Go on then.' he also asked them a question and that is strictly against the rules.
Other than that it was pretty good, there is a wide range of people that we will be up against, people from south africa, goths and nerds and some kinda 'cool' kids. I am really looking forward to next Wednesday cause that'll be my first debate. Our topic is: Plastic bans should be banned. We are the positive side so that isn't too hard. Since Mum knows a lot about animal protection, she can give me some pointers on what plastic bags can do to the environment (even the biodegradable ones).
Anyways it's getting late so I better go to bed otherwise I'll feel like a zombie when I rise from the dead in the morning!

ALRIGHT!
Ok, I am sick of being quiet. I've been watching just about everyone talking and people listening to them. That's right! Im going to go with the flock... herd... *instert other animal group here*... Everyone is making blogs and vids (only reason I shorten this is cause I can't spell it) and people are commenting and watching and I am frankly a little bit jealous. I think I am allowed to be... jealous might not be the right word but it kinda is.
Here are a few: 1.Zero Punctuation= awesome game review vids that make me laugh everytime I watch them (even though I haven't played most of the games)
2. Ray William Johnson= cute review vids on online vids, makes me laugh many times buy most of the time it's due to flashing lights and cute little kittens that be cute at the camera.
3. X= really funny game reviews that feature X talking as he plays whatever game is interesting him right then at him moment
4. Mum= a really cool chick that lets me live in her house and is right now inspiring many people in her own way (in my opinion).
Anyways so I thought I would start blogging a little more..... frankly it all depends on how many people comment on it, you know what they say: SHOW THEM YOU GIVE A FLYING F*CK! So onto some good topics ummm.... well we all know how much I hate things so I may as well rant about what things I hate/dislike:
1. I've been to the same damn bus stop each morning and all the teenagers there haven't so much as said hello to me. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I sit on the other side of the road and I must look like a serial killer in my University Uniform (I don't really know).
2. The buses are really smelly due to the fact that a some people come onto the buses and leave the scent of rotten oranges and... piss.
3. Some people just wait for you to make a fucking mistake so they can just bitch about you later. For instance: During one of my classes (I think maths) a pretty girl who I think likes/tolerates me, answered a question that I didn't know and I jokingly called her a showoff. I didn't murmer it, I leaned back and I am sure some people saw my smile (which was an actual smile not a fucking smirk) and then lore and behold a few days later I find out some freckled chick called me a bitch and said she can't stand me. So I went over to the pretty girl and said that I meant no harm with what I said and she replied like a confused kitten and I wandered off down the hall.
4. When you try to be nice to someone and them are sarcastic to you... what the fuck are you meant to do? Play nice and pretend you don't notice, or be a bitch back to them? Im kinda inbetween the two currently, not knowing whether or not I should just say "Hey well why don't you just go jump off a fucking cliff" or "Wow I can't believe how comfy these chairs are!"
5. The dogs here don't shut up...
6. All I wanted was a Lemonade during my study period and after putting in the $2.00 and pressed the Lemonade, I REPEAT LEMONADE! I got a sunkist... A FUCKING SUNKIST! AND IT WAS WARM! Oh well...
7. THE MOULD!!!
Onto what I like!
1. At this school I pay $4.00 and I get a hotdog that is not only enough to fill up my tummy (hahaha yeah grow the f*ck up) but it also tastes kinda like a damn hotdog and it isn't one of those horrible cherio one.
2. The Canteen people here are also nice :)
3. They have Candy/Lollie/Chocolate/Chip machien (fuck I can't spell shit) which is full of yummy treats!
4. It rains here all the time
5. I can ride my bike to the bus stop, not have to lock it and I don't have to worry about it getting stolen!
6. Beard Man/Face at the Gate who Sevvy and I really like :D (he's always cheery and makes you smile even if you've just been run over by a bus).
Oh well have fun Until Next time

Too Short?
Heh well first of all I am very happy to see (and read) that people are reading my blog :). Ok now onto buisness. I was thinking about entering Australias Next Top Model. Other than being too short, do you guys think I could do it? In all honesty I think I COULD get in but I dunno. Mum and little sis think I could and Sevvy thinks I could too though he doesn't like the thought of people OGERING ME! (oggling or however the hell you spell it). I know I am short, and I know models are meant to be tall, but hey I think they should have a little bit of everything! They let black, white and asians go on, chubby, slim and super skinny (to the extent that you think you can break their bones like twigs). Why not short and tall? I mean I am not a midget but I am short. I think I might give it a go what do you guys think? Also I have heard comments from people (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!) that I would end up killing people due to the fact I have a low tollerance for... 'those' types. OK, I admit I have a problem but I think I MIGHT be able to handle it. Though I don't know how I would go in that stupid little room where I talk to the camera. God I pray they don't have that one stuck up black bitch that is all up in your face! But hey those chicks have to make a living somewhere right? I bet all of you guys would get a kick out of what I would wear to the auditions, some big black boots, some knee length pants and some short of top. Nah I would end up wearing something that shows my legs (I've been told they are nice) and something that shows the curves (anyone who has seen me only in my uniform, will not know that I have curves). Oh well, maybe.
Sadly tonight is my last night in this house, makes me sad... few more days and then it's off to Darwin, oh happy happy! Least we get to go look at new places and meet the locals. Though I will miss it here... the chickens... the green grass/weeds, the hills that lead off into the park... least we won't have that dumb ass down the road to deal with anymore. Besides, I'll be coming back, at least to visit once or twice! So you guys better have some pizza and some horror movies waiting for me when I get back! Or there will be hell to pay! Everyone is mega sunburnt except for me and the little sister :D (I think). Sevvy was working with no shirt on today again hehehehe... I'm not a pervert... I got attack by millions of green ants today but I did kinda piss them off first (seems to run in the family to have a need to break their nests). Also, spiders, spiders and more spiders! If you don't like spiders don't come out here! We have them coming out our ears! Big ones, small ones, fat ones, skinny ones! There was an interesting one crawling on Mum, it was trying to look like a green ant (in order to go into their nest and either pick of the ants themselves one by one OR to take some of the yummy eggs). It had a green bum and yellow legs! Animals are pretty cool when you get right down to it :).
Anyways it's about time I give my Sevvy a ring and tell him it's my bedtime :). He was a real sweety today, helping out on his day off :D he also turned up early which made me very happy!

Ouchie
Well you know how men always talk about poo? Now it's my turn but only for a short while. Spent about 12 minutes on the toliet and when I was done I had trouble walking. Was 2 minutes away from telling Mother that I was constipated heh. But alls well that ends well. I've been spending most I my day drawing and cleaning. Had a lot of fun looking inside 'The Jungle' again. Found two small spider that usually are the colour of bird poo (lol there I go again) but the first one was striped bright yellow and black. Never seen one like that. The second one looked more like... I don't know... blood and other stuff. I was touching the spike tree and wasn't looking where my hands were going but I suddenly felt something fluffy and soft. I pulled my hand back really quickly and looked carefully as to where I had been touching. What I saw made me shiver and twitch. A huntsmen of some sorts was smartly snuggled into a spot where two spikes were missing and had positioned it's legs so that they looked like spikes. Cute little thing didn't move through when I poked it with a stick... hope it wasn't dead (parents say he was trying to hide from birds).
Yesterday (pinch and a punch for the first day of the month) was also fun. We all cleaned up for a heap of it and the boy came over hehehe. He was very helpful, wanting to pull up weeds and pick up all the rubbish he could find. After we did most of the work we got to saw down a tree. Halfway down the tree it snaped and then we had the joy of trying to get the other half out/down/. I ended up behind the tree in some bushes sawing the crap out of it. Mum's man finished it off and warned me just in time as a big hairy brown spider came running at me. Thank god I am not scared of spiders (well... I am a little but I'm not super scared of them) living out here would be a nightmare if I was heh. The day ended well with us all swimming in the creek, will be going back down there tomorrow hopefully :)
Well I better go to bed very soon, I have a date tomorrow :)
