WALKATHON!
Today we had our annual school Walkathon, a day where yr12s get to set up our own stalls and sell goodies while the other years ask for sponsors and then walk to a beach at San Souci (10km)! This is a tradition of St Georgians and the money fundraised is used improve certain things around the school, decided by the SRC group.Usually we would set up our stalls at the park near the beach but since the past few days have had such bad weather, the school decided today was going to be rainy as well so they made us set up at school and get the girls to walk back to school from the beach instead. But guess what. TODAY WAS A PERFECTLY SUNNY DAY! )):
But then again.. I guess it's better in a way that we don't have to move the tables back and forth by car and stuff so it was all good.
Our stalls were reviewed by the prefects and they included fun activities like nail art, tattooing, jump castles etc. As well as yummy food and drink stalls with pizza, cookies, Korean rice cakes, soft drinks, easy way and such! Our stall consisted of both food and drink! We were lucky enough to get sponsored by Baker's Delight (Rockdale) and Gloria Jeans (Rockdale) and were able to sell yummy freshly baked bread and refreshingly tasty Italian Soda! Our group consisted of 8 people including: Mish Lu, Mish Liang, Catherine.Z, Liza.W, Vicki.T, FiTao, Ellen.C and I! While the two Mishes were in charge of collecting the money, Catherine, Liza, Vicki and Fitao were responsible for the bread selling. That leaves Ellen and I with the job of making the awesome Italian Soda! :9
The Italian soda was a great success and with the meal deals, we were able to sell out super fast! In fact we finished like three hours in advance! :D
There was a profit of a total of over $150 and so we finished the day early with a few photos and headed to Liza's apartment to watch White Chicks!

GreenDay & First HSC Assessment
We had Mufti at school today to celebrate some biodiversity day (called Green Day) the enviro-club of our school had set up. Our school hosted the event because apparently we're one of the leaders in being environmentally friendly. There was a lot of fundraising and such around the school and we had visitor schools from all over the place coming in to celebrate it with us. One of which I recognised was North Sydney Boys.I basically had free periods in the afternoon so I just left at 12pm. Nothing special to me I guess.. just another boring old school day ~
mm but I also got my first HSC assessment timetable today.. which is depressing.
It's going to be held in 2-3 weeks so better step on the accelerator and give it my best shot!
*pshhfttt as if*

dog and dogged.
Jeans for Genes day today! and I bought myself a $5 badge to support the foundation.It's a major fundraiser for the Children's Medical Research Institute.
(:
mm went to visit Mish's new puppy during lunch.
She randomly bought it with her boyfriend the other day simply because they saw it and felt like it.
It's a Silky Terrier x Maltese, 2months old and still nameless. He's super adorable though, because he literally licks anyone he meets and gets super excited when someone new comes around.
Anyways.. after I gave the puppy back to Mish, I headed off to city in hopes of .. doing something..
like watch Step Up 3D...
since I'm missing out on Khalil's concert which is literally in one and a half hrs. );
Cici came for like half an hour and told me she had to go because her mum insisted her to go home..
then her bf came and they walked off while I bumped into Zac, Sandy and Ricky.
Yeah.. I ended up going home because it was so depressing..

mm we had MUFTI DAY at school today.
It was to fund raise for TO WRITE LOVE ON HER ARMS - 'a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery.'
Since it was raining, my little love tag on my arm got smudged.

sunny day, sick me ~
We had Mufti Day, Crazy Hair Day and sponsoring the World's Greatest Shave today, in order to fund raise for the school and the leukemia foundation. I'm guessing we raised over $1000? Good job guys!I also had my Ext Maths exam today and it was absolutely, horrible.
This was mainly due to the fact that I was extremely sick with a case of bad cold. I finished half of the paper and just couldn't stand my sneezing and blurry vision anymore.. so I just walked out of the exam room and went sick bay. Now I can't redo the test cause I saw the paper ~~
I even stayed up all night studying for it... This exam also had a weighing of 20%..
Depressing.....
好辛苦啊~~
Anyways I'm going to take some medicine and go take a nap since I have literally been awake for the past 48hr+ ~
Oh the weekends...
finally~~
-- this was meant to be posted up on the 12/03 but my net died while I was typing it up.. so here it is.
