Excerpts from a Teenage Opera

Just thought you all might like to know I'm working 20 hours this week......kill me now. Maybe I can work my way up to a position of power at woolworths.....lol!

Also I should change the background on this page since it doesn't match my new header sadly.

Okay since it's been about six weeks since I've written anything I thought I better write a quick post to let you all know what's going on im life atm.

I can summarise for anyone who gets bored quickly though...the answer is not a lot.

As you may or may not know, I recently got a job at good ol' Woolworths. It's alright there, except when you get crappy customers that enjoy being annoying and make life difficult for everyone. I'm the youngest one working there, there's a few people in year 12 and then like mostly everyone's in Uni. Everyone there is like super nice except for one of the supervisors who seems to really dislike me and lkikes to tell me off for stuff at every possible chance she can. But C'est la vie...

OH I've just remembered to look up those lyrics as well and it IS c'est chic. Ah k well at least I know something...also I realise Britain is not actually a country lol.

So on Friday night, we celebrated Donar and Penelope's birthday's at Savanas Restaurant. Mia, Monika, Angelina, Carlia, Jacqui, Marta and myself were there. The food there wasn't overly fantastic but they gave us massive portions and they had nice chips lol. Then we had birthday which everyone pitched in to buy. Sadly Donar didn't have the greatest experience because she had a cold and thought all the food tasted funny.

After dinner, Mia, Monika, Ange, Donar and myself walked over to the cinemas and watched The Dark Knight. I have to say I seriously underestimated Heath Ledger because I thought it was all talk about his great performance just as a sort of pity thing because he died. But he was fantastic and even as the bad guy I totally loved the Joker, he just had that je ne sais quoi.

Ahhh below are photos of the night's romping. We were outside and I kiiiind of froze my ass off because I wore a skirt thinking it wouldn't get cold IN a restaurant. How silly of me.

Okay well thats it from me for now.

Ciao, Steph

Steph's Busy Day

So once upon a time there was this uber chick called Steph and the guys wanted to be her and the girls thought they could change her (or maybe vice versa SIMPSONS QUOTE PEOPLE)

And anyway Stephanie woke up on the morning of the 18th June 2008 in a blind panic as she had such an eventful day. First off she had to wake up extremely early because she had extension maths which ran fairly smoothy smooth as it regularly does. But when she woke up she remembered SHE IS DONATING BLOOD TODAY. Scary I know. So she had a big breakfast comprised of weet-bix, juice, tea and toast. She also drank large quantities of water throughout the day, so much that she had to pee three times during class time at school.

First two periods the Steph had english. Today happened to be the day in english where they decided to have a listening test. And Steph happened to do okay, or at least she thinks she did. Then there was double French-ness and more in-class peeing.

At lunch the Steph left for the blood bank and she was pretty much scared shitless. So she actually got there believe it or not and filled out the forms and got weighed and had her blood pressure taken etc. Then came the scary little needle they prick your finger with to test iron or some such thing. The Steph passed. and then they took her through to THE room. andshe sat down and freaked out lots, the lady taking her blood was super nice though and she was sitting there with a GREAT MASSIVE METAL TUBE coming out of her arm and she kept asking if the Steph was okay was okay which she was and they were like three quarters of the way through and the lady is like are you okay? and and the steph says yer...it's normal to feel like a little dizzy right? and shes like NO :O and the steph thinks she is dying (the man said that was okay since there was a cemetary right across ther road) and so she has to stop taking the Steph's blood and INVERT the Steph so her legs are higher than her head which was especially embarassing as all her nice friends came and laughed for support not to mention there was a cute guy working there. 15 minutes later the Steph is set free and gets to eat chocolate and jellybeans free from blood donating terror.

BUT THERE WAS TERROR YET TO COME. The Steph had a job interview which was equally stressful as the blood donating which went for about 45 minutes until the Steph came out on the top and nice Libra informed her that she would be recommending the Steph as she was the most awesome for the job.

The Steph was getting quite emotional as the day was not one of her favourites and she still had to go home and finish her food tech assignment (which she is about to do right now)

So Peace out kids

Steph the (not only just) Spectacular

PS Shame on you Tommothy as I have donated blood before you =P

The Host....The Verdict

Okay so I've read it. Stephenie Meyers latest The Host.

I have to say first off after not reading the Twilight books for ages I've cooled down from my Stephenie Meyer fever. I sort of forgot why I ever got so hyped up.

The idea behind the host is the whole body snatching alien thing. Although the genre it sits in is quite far from anything too sci-fi. In fact TH's themes are all quite similar to Twilight. It is an almost impossible love story between two different species...stop me if this sounds all too familiar.

Despite similarities between the two books I can't help but enjoy the love triangle involving only two bodies. The characters are all endearing...even the bad ones! Which is what makes the story kind of sugar coated but hey sometimes it's good to just read a book with a sickeningly perfectly ending right?

I don't want to give too much away in case you're all going to run out and buy it after my WONDERFUL review but yeah it's a nice happy story that I wouldn't say was one of my favourite books of all time but it rates pretty well with me and I mean hey, if it gets people reading books who am I to complain right?

Much Love
Steph the Spectacular xxx

Anyone up for Charlie the Unicorn 2?

Just a quick on to say HEY check it out, Stephanie's got herself an actual layout. Yes kids the rumours are true.

Anyway I'd like to say the name of this blog Coffee Club was bodaciously made up by MIA and I needed to give her credit (Even though the name was not completely originally hers but what ev.)
I have quite a bit of homework oh and Mrs Wood wants me to make some principles morning tea all day Tues/Wed but I really don't want to miss out on two days of school work, that sound prissy but seriously catching up is hard work. Oh and also double english is going to be cool.

I any of you were wondering... The Wombats are coming to the Land of Aus in August and tickets are like 50 bucks I'd really like to go but its on a Tuesday.

Hm, I'll write more later

Big Love

Steph

Hey kids

Just got back from our school camp..okay well i got back yesterday but same difference right. I thought it was okay. Everyone complained about the food which I really didn't think was THAT horrible I mean it's a camp you can't exactly expect a five star meal.Here's what we had:

Day 1
Lunch: Burrito things (mine fell apart), fruit
Dinner: Roast dinner choice of beef lamb or pork (Pumpkin had gross seasoning)berry jelly

Day 2
Breakfast: Toast, Cereal (Weetbix, Just Right, Sultana Bran) Fruit, Yoghurt
Lunch: Sandwiches (I had Chicken, Cheese and Lettice), Poppers, Museli Bars (Ate at Archery site)
Dinner: Some chicken stir fry thing with rice and beans, mousse

Day 3
Breakfast: Pretty much the same as the day before
Lunch: Potato Frittata thing with salad, bread roll, fruit

Activities we did were Archery, Ropes course, Rock Climbing, Abseiling, Canoing/Kayaking. All pretty good. Then there was the disco of course which I keep hoping I wasn't too embarrassing at...

There were a few dramas. It was pretty ironic really. A camp designed to bring our year group together not only failed but almost went backwards. Let me explain. On the first night, these girls went into our cabin and stole like all our lollies and food FROM MIA'S SUITCASE. We weren't in the room at the time because we were visiting people and the state of origin was on blah blah blah.

Anyway Me and Donar were walking back to our cabin when two girls WHO SHALL REMAIN NAMELESS go running past us with OUR STUFF so I was pretty angry....I went after them but I lost her and I found Marta and we went to try and find Mrs Dunbar

and I won't bore you with the rest of the gory details but pretty much we got our stuff back because they didn't want us to DOB They tried to tell us the boys were the ones that stole it until they realised Donar and I had seen them! and then the story changed to someone had done it to them so they did it to us...real mature kids. But Clearly we were in the wrong because we can't take a joke.

Later on they were all in this huge group running in and out of people's cabins and they were heading up to the end where out cabin was and I was like oh great they're going to our cabin again and Miss Piggy (you know who I mean) was behind me and she says
"They aren't going to your cabin, just relax they're going to < insertnameofmindlessbimbodronehere >'s for the party...and if you were cool enough you'd be invited"

Well didn't that just take the cake. It pissed me off further that they would even think we would WANT to go to their party. FYI I pretty much disagree with anything you do and you need to get your head out of your ass.

Anyway don't be deceived I really did have a good time but I really wish those girls didn't need to involve us in their stupid "joke" Photos now? Yes?
