South Africa tomorrow! Bus leaves 11.00AM, and I'll be gone for TWO WHOLE WEEKS. I am psyched beyond belief. But I'll most likely have no chance to get online until I get back. I will, however, be keeping a mandatory journal. So I might provide some sort of digest when I return.

On another note, I've had hiccoughs all day, and I'm tired of

Sooo, tonight, in 17 minutes, Terry Tempest Williams, stupidest author in the history of the world, is coming to speak at my school. I can't really articulate properly how full of bullshit she is, I can only suggest that you read her ridiculous books.

On Sunday, I have my audition for HSC. Much Ado this summer. I hope I get a part.

If I only post because I feel obligated, is it worth it?

Who knows.

My mom and I are starting seeds, because the giant window we have in our kitchen makes our kitchen just like a greenhouse. So we have flowers, lettuce, tomatoes, basil, and, later, watermelon and pumpkin. !

Religion class is the biggest waste of time ever. Religion is a waste of time to study--it should be experienced, if anything.

And it happens at 8.00AM, so not only is it the waste of all wastes, but it is at a most inopportune time. So I'm pissed. At least I'm not paying for this.
