Well, kidlets, ‘here I go into the wilderness’ once again. Seeya next year.
3000th post time!
This is the only thing I can be bothered to put in this post, as requested by Georgia. I need sleep.
10 things I love ‘about us Madcaps’:
There’s always someone to talk to.
We just work. We come from all walks of life and yet we still just behave like family.
If I’ve had a shitty morning, no matter how determined I am to wallow in self-pity and feel sorry for myself,...
The Grace Music Awards for 2010
Last time I said ‘welcome, and all that shit’. This year I’ll be nicer and say ‘haere mai’.
Okay.
Best Video Clip: Runaway - Kanye West Worst Video Clip (that you found endearing despite its shitness): Hurricane - 30 Seconds to Mars Best Really Terrible Song: Your Love is my Drug - Ke$ha Best Song From A Shitty Artist: Crazy Beautiful Life - Ke$ha Best Hip-Hop...
This chapter is so understanding.
‘When people with absolute pitch “hear a piece of familiar music played in the wrong key,” Daniel Levitin and Susan Rogers write, “they often become agitated or disturbed… To get a sense of what it is like, imagine going to the produce market and finding that, because of a temporary disorder of visual processing, the bananas all...
I finally have my copy of Oliver Sacks’ Musicophilia back.
The chapter about absolute pitch is called ‘Papa Blows His Nose in G’.

It’s embarrassing how many things we used to post per day. Believe me.

1) What would you like to say to the first person you kissed this year? Rrrruff.
2) Why is the last reason you cried? Things.
3) Where is your cell phone? On my bedside table. The best thing about these questionnaires is that nobody really cares.
4) What was the worst mistake of your life? Hmm, umm… being stupid?
5) Did you like N’SYNC or Backstreet Boys? Neither. Deeply neither.
6)...
Things I wish I had:
Nicki Minaj’s accent
we suck
Hi, my name is: Grace Never in my life have I been: caught. The one person who can drive me nuts is: EVERYONE. High school: is beautiful and terrible, but mostly beautiful. When I’m nervous: I tremble. The last song I listened to was: Ready for the World - How to Dress Well If I were to get married right now my best man/maid of honor: would be Danielle Sisam. I think. My hair is: deeply...

Good things about the Rugby World Cup next year.
I get to have my birthday at school for the first time ever! I always wanted just one birthday at school, and here we go!
Sucks for us though, in a way. Anyone with early exams (which will be like everyone at Senior above year 11) must have to come in to do them in the holidays or something.

Yeah apparently no matter how you dress, if you add white rabbit ears on a headband you instantly look like a slut.
The white diamond stockings don’t help.
Thank goodness for a marked lack of male company at this party.
are the ears the ones i gave you on ur birthday? :D
Yup.

I swear there is a line for every situation!! I took it into the kitchen and Eli had done something wrong, so I said,
“You just gotta work at it like a crack addict up in rehab.”
“I honestly asked for a cheese log for Christmas.”
– i.e. why I love my forums.
@Georgia - I will do just that!!
@Maddeh - I will bring the tie + pants, but what weird shirt thing do you mean? The cream one or the blue…thing?

My father, while preparing a to-do list with my mother for the rest of December, said “oh, don’t forget ‘sex-a-thon’.” My mother wasn’t impressed.

Oh man, I will never watch Christmas in the Park on TV again. It reminds me why I boycott it.
Oh that was horrible. ‘Oh let’s celebrate Christmas and oversex everything.’
Tasteful. Really bloody tasteful.
Ever notice that I’m drawn to people who don’t talk about my ancestry?
It’s interesting.

Stag Market - written today
Here, while the world begins to cross the pit of this recession we are starting our regression. Our past-chapped lips dried from past-circumstance seek spit afresh with child-like nonchalance. Our paraphiliac touch now paraphrased to dirty thoughts - yet clean hands, buttoned shirts.
No pain in love, yet all pain in love, old pain: red from fingernails, new pain: blue from brain-tales. In new...

The word ‘crush’. I have NEVER been able to take it seriously in its playground context.
All it reminds me of is a fruit drink.
