Upate

Academic....

School has finally come to an end in terms of Semester 1, I am grateful for that. These holidays I am hoping to get a fair bit of revision done and summary.
My report seemed pretty good, trying hard in class to get the mark I want to get into University.

Not much else to say about school... maybe later next term I'll have more to say.

Barkley Street Campus - LANX [LAN Party]...

This LAN Party was pretty dam ace, killed me tho in terms of energy. Few of the boys were happy to see me again, just as I was happy to see them.
Played plenty of games, had plenty of maccas, even had some westies at maccas which were intriguing in terms of how others reacted to them.
In terms of me reacting to them I think I was about to pass out on the bench from lack of sleep and uncooked fries lol.

Friends Family and Girlfriend...

Friends seem to be going good... allot still on the phase of getting drunk every weekend. Not really my scene anymore but enjoy having their company and chatting to them as always.
Great mates! Family is going good... not much going on at the moment with family.

Girlfriend and I are going OK, bit rough at the moment... hope we figure it out soon.

Discussions....

I thought I would blog about conversations with people so i can better understand myself and others can better understand me.
I like discussions you learn things about people, factors of their life, things they like and what type of person they are whilst in progress of a discussion.
I think its great listening to people whom have a passion for something, because all their emotions and ideas are fueled into that discussion.
Imagination seems to be a big factor of discussions due to new ideas are thought about during discussions and peoples visions of life are formed around deep and meaningful conversations. Conversations that actually have meaning or relevance to your life are for me very special.

My Respect for some people in terms of discussions:
[ Dont compare yourself with these people its just my view of them as individuals ]

Brenton Johnson now there is a fella that has a huge vision of life, this guy i respect the most in terms of meaningful discussions. [Thanks mate]
Brenton Gordon is also a great bloke that has meaning in his words, enjoy his conversations. [Thanks Brenton (must be the name)]
Danny McCarthy can have some good conversations that in terms of life and people in it are good.
Anthony Rhook when you can get him in a serious mood he has a great vision of life too.

Sandy Tai and myself could talk for hours about different factors of life is there a god, views of religion and why my view is so, space, war anything no limit. Our imagination would create scenarios of war and what we would do in a certain situation. That was interesting and fun, much respect goes out to Sandy.

There just a few.

Tamara's getting back into running a fair bit, not liking uni too much but I think its getting better for her out there. This week we [Mum, Tam and I] went to Spider Man 3 which I thought was good for the fight sences :) mum did not think much of it because it has no story line.

Dion is 17 long time gone I think but mates all needed an excuse to catch up from studying and their own lives. Should be good to have all the mates togeather again, but I think there is going to be allot of people I dont know becasue of randoms being invited. Dont plan on drinking much or staying overnight for a change, just becasue I know it will affect me studying and I am dog tired have been for a month lol.

Dad went out and bought a D200 digital camera which is purely awesome in terms of photography, I am lucky enough to be a proud owner of dads old Fujifilm S5000 a 6 megapixil camera.




Life still is getting more complex and demanding as the days go on in terms of everything that is happening. Its interesting, I say random things that seem to amuse some people and some people who are of similar personalities to me join in e.g. my good friend reilly. I have come to the conclusion saying random things opens your mind to more ideas and concepts. Thus you can better understand things and have a good time. If you enjoy something you do, stick to it. If you are inspired by something and that creates an idea, follow it expand on it. The only limit is your imagination.



School is currently going ok, I have completed a few SAC's [Scored Aseesment Tasks] doing not bad in Information Technology and Maths Methods. I have just completed a Maths Further SAC which was good and bad in some ways, I am not used to the style of SAC that it is. I know I made a few mistakes the day after finishing the SAC which is a bit frustrating.

The Current state of our school is hectic, I am starting to think I would be better off doing year 12 at barkley street. No offence to the teachers but we are getting allot of 1st year teachers, thus people dont listen and are immature a fair bit more than usual. The new teachers have allot of knowledge in what they are doing altho which is a great help to the students who actually want to learn and do something with their lives.

Not to mention that we are in Term 2 of Year 12 and have no computer access becuase a switch failed at school. This is really annoying me becasue I know it can be re-routed through a different cheap networking equipment so we can do our work. Further more we are using outdated 2003 software where students have bought 100 odd dolla books for references which dont go hand in hand with the software the school is running.
