I didn't update much while I was away.
Hahahaha. Okay, I didn't update at all while I was away. But this is what I did do:

Time: 9:50PM
Location: In bed, Taumarunui
Listening to: Confessions by Bleed The Dream
While on "vacation", I decided it would be best if I attempted to do some work, be it for the EE, IAs, or just plain studying for the closer-than-you-think exams.
I am now taking a chance at doing the second draft of my EE. Lets see how this turns out 'cause I'm already sleepy. Hehehehehehe.
Oh, yah. The sheep is good. The dogs are great. The cat is awesome. And the cows are simply the best. But no creature can beat the grass, 'cause it's just beautiful.
Note: Slight exaggeration may be in order, but who knows, really?

Listening to: Never Say "I Told You So" by The Almost
It's been a while since I even thought about updating my curious and faithful readers (hahah), but here I am, my followers; I have returned.
I've spent the past week in Wanganui, Wellington, Porirua and Paraparaumu, doing stuff (which isn't really stuff, but you know how it is), and I just got back tonight. I've had the perfect pair of shoes for me planned out in my head for the whole length of the trip, it's just so much harder finding them in real life, hahah.
Which reminds me... I'd like to let you know that I do finally understand the silly and uncontrollable way I download music. I bought The Almost's Southern Weather two days ago before realizing that I had all the songs on my laptop, which means I didn't realize how nice they sound. They are rather tip-top I must say, simply charming. Hahaha (I don't know what I was trying to do there. I think I was trying to compliment them and tell you to give them a good, hard listen, if you haven't already, please. ;]).
And I haven't even started studying properly yet! Ahhhhhh. With mock exams fourteen days away. Ahhhhhh. Very unhealthy. :|
Well, I have some suicidal tendencies to pursue. Cheerio.

Listening to: Scars That Save by Kids In The Way
There's something terribly alerting about looking through old photo albums and seeing what things people you think you know have done. My dad's had wonderful adventures, and it makes me feel minute when I realise my dreams are so small. I want to travel across the world, sleep in on the sidewalk, make friends with strangers; the pictures make it seem amazing.
It's weird discovering how people can change so much within a matter of years, but if anything happens, I hope I change for the better.

The last 36 hours were a bit weird for me, but I'm back in Brunei finally.
There's an emotion you don't get to feel in its wholeness until you miss a flight you were supposed to catch. First, you're just generally pissed off and want to scream at anyone who talks to you, touches you, moves around you. Then, you start to consider the possibility that this whole problem may be your own fault, which makes you even more frustrated. Finally, you tell yourself to calm down as possible solutions pop up in your head; everything will be okay and the blame you wanted to rub off yourself disintegrates into itself.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, my flight was shifted two hours earlier and I wasn't told, so when I was waiting in line to check in, the sign with my flight on it disappeared and instead of putting two and two together, I just thought it was weird. When it was finally my turn to be served, I asked the lady behind the counter if I checked in for Brunei there, and she just looked at me funny and said the flight's already left. Bla, bla, bla. Drama, drama, drama. My dad spoke with the supervisor and she rerouted us (me and my brother) by putting us on an aeroplane to Brisbane, which meant we had to wait at the Brisbane airport for 6 hours for our next flight to Brunei. We got meal vouchers though, so that took about 10 minutes off our hands. Falling asleep in random places, buying MAD magazines and lots of chocolate and Aero bars. Lovely. :p
Yes, I realize my life isn't very interesting and neither are the 'adventures' I have, but it's all I've got (excluding the stories I make up in my head). For now. ;D
Talk to you later.

Feeling: Full
Listening to: Come Back by The Early November
Departure from Brunei in: 2 days
Finally ticked off most of the stuff on my list of things to do this week. *Wipes sweat off forehead.
I gave my TOK prestentation today and at the end of the day, Steveuraxeferous the inflatable green alien was dead and... *Sniffs. leaking. :'[
And I just realised how close I am to leaving to New Zealand; I'm panicking. Hahahaaa. I don't understand it either.
Feels like there's something stuck in my throat, but I can't get it out and my throat just annoyingly hurts like hell. Well, not really. I don't know what hell hurts like. :]
Ta-ta, now.
