A long awaited return

Today is the 15th of November, 2012. Wow, how did we get here? Is it possible that my written words on paper had taken over my typed words online? Yes, that must be it. A LOT has happened in these past 2 months. Some great things, some not so great - but mainly great.

Firstly, I finished school forever. We had an assembly in which I was nominated for "The Biggest Feet Award" which is really ironic if you know me and the tiniest feet I have. Proceeding that, we were clapped out by fellow peers in the year level below us as well as teachers. It was strangely emotional. I had grown such an immense attachment in only 2 years to some of the people that surrounded myself. It was ultimately a pretty dandy week and was ended with a formal graduation in which I sang EVERY song with the choir and BAWLED with them in the last songs we sang.

Secondly, I turned 18. It was a really lovely day in which my bestfriend and I went to the film "Ruby Sparks" (c'etait brilliante) and then during the night-time my family arrived for a seafood feast. YUM. The following night was my party and afterwards I was joined by a few friends to attend some over 18s venues. Oh that night...it was an adventure to say the least! Since then I have attended another 2 over 18s venues bringing it to: The Great Nothern Hotel x2 ("Open Mic"), The Cambridge and The Brewery. It was a nice time of my life, spending it with my great family and friends and I was extremely positive about the following weeks.

Uh huh, so then the following week started the endless cycle of preparing, studying, excersising and sleep in an attempt to "forfil my potential" in the upcoming 7 written exams. Let me tell you, it wasn't that I was STRESSED but more or less BORED. I kept a healthy connection with my friends and even went to a few more "open mic" events during that time. For once, the exams worked in my favour, maybe not so much Visual Arts, but I think I pulled it off. Such a weird time of my life. Devoting myself to getting rid of the exams. AND FINALLY. The day arrived. The 8th of November 2012 - the last time slot of the last allocated day of the HSC exam period I had my Visual Arts exam. AND, like I said, it was ALRIGHT I suppose. We all finished the exam and hugged and smiled and walked together down to the office to sign out of school forever and recieve our graduation tickets. The following night was our formal graduation and throughout the day I got ready. At about 3pm family came over to "inspect" the last child in the family's formal for a fair while. After that we went to a really great friend of mines house with 10 others from my group. The night was preeeeeeeeeeetty swell.

Oh gosh, that's a lot for one post. I think I might make a new post for the past weekend.

Haha, oh man, this is so not even worth reading but kudos to you.
