Well sorry for lack of posts lately. The other day I got a new computer and when I went to go on my old one to get all the files, the old one stuffed up. I think the old one knew it was being replaced...
Anyway, my dad and I spent all night trying to fix it and eventually got everything off and I have spent the past few days putting the files on the new fancy one and downloading old programs I used to have.
This internet is old and soo annoying. I also don't have microsoft office. I have one called OpenOffice which is a lamer version - grrr.
On Friday my school had a grade 9 art exhibition and it was fuun. I have a ton of pictures to show you.
Anyways... I am catching up on everyone's recent blogs and I am enjoying myself for some reason.
Today I miss out on an applied art class (graffiti art) - This class is on a weekend so we have time to spray paint a mural in our school and the dude helping us can only do it on a weekend. He is a cool street artist from around here. I have soccer slap bang in the middle of it.
Yesterday I got my hair trimmed and it looks much better really straight, haha. School photos on Tuesday - Gasp. I also bought a cobalt pair of tights and the fifth book in the IT girl series - Lucky - which I have already finished.
Better be off. Byeee.

Okay...
Books, books, books. Cecily von Ziegesar.
I need to read something. I have gone back to re-reading all of my interesting books. I have a pretty good memory so I remember it all which kind of ruins the fun and excitement of reading. (listen to me, 'fun & excitement of reading'.)
I have the first three books from the seven series set of 'The IT Girl'. It is by the author of Gossip Girl, Cecily von Ziegesar. She is a great author. She is brilliant at building up suspence. She also writes like a teenager and mentions modern clothes and brands and places so much you just feel so young and free and 'into' everything when you read it.
Anyways, I bought the second one ages ago and really enjoyed it so I went out and bought the first one then, other than glancing for it in the 'teenage fiction' section of any bookstore, I haven't thought of it much since. However, with my recent obsession with Gossip Girl and specifically Jenny Humphrey (a character in Gossip Girl and the main character of The IT Girl), I saw the series (recovered) in Melbourne and I bought the next one in the series - Reckless.
Reckless is more a build up book for the others. Well, I guess I see it like that because I read it in a few hours. The books are about the 'it' crowd at an expensive boarding school in America featuring partying, drinking, boys and clothes. Any-ho, I'm reading Reckless now.
