Yip-ee! Term 1 is gooonskies and the Easter holidays have begun. Sadly,
school neither the teachers, will be missed.
Strangely enough, we all came to school despite it being the last day. He had
arranged to meet to McDonalds for breakfast, everybody except Susan. We each got
either a Sausage and Egg or Bacon and Egg McMuffin Meal and
sat down and ate at separate tables. Once finished the girls (Anna and Sheila)
went to the toilet and Daniel sat outside. I then got a Choco "Frappe" (fancier
name for a Gloria Jeans' Iced Chocolate) at the McCafe, in which the girls took
forever to get. Sheila also got a "Mocca Frappe" and a jam donut?
We walked all the way back to school and sat down in front of the library.
Almost immediately, we were told to get to class by Ms Abson. We walked to
A2 slowly, and was told to get late notes by Mrs. Berry after Ms Abson had told
us not to "waste more time". We sat in English for about 5 minutes before the
bell rang and we walked slowly again to Chemistry. We walked into the empty
classroom and began throwing a tennis ball, John had found in English, with "AZN
PRIDE" written on it. We then closed all the blinds and lights, and Daniel and I
thought up a plan to turn all the chairs around so everybody was facing the back
of the room, all the while, Sheila and Alan held the door. Hadjachari came in and it was a crack up.
Recess, and we walked out to the back and we played footy with the Year 7s while
the girls did something. Recess was extended by 40 minutes so we ran around the
field, tired. The bell rang and we walked to the library because Anna and Susan
wanted to get the Chemistry notes off the server. Daniel and I returned to
English to get our novels. We stayed there for a while, Shane and I were reading
Year 7's acrostic poems off the wall. Period 3 was shortened due to the
extension of
Recess and we walked back to the library to tell the girls to get the novels off
"Mse Bez". They were still trying to send the Chemistry notes to ours and their
email addresses, when Susan discovered a "Love Email", from no other than Alan.
It read along the lines of "Susan, I love you, please don't break my heart ...
Tell me how you feel at school". Hadja was also in the library, mocking Anna's
email address (BSSFTTM) and started reading out the love email in a stupid
voice.
We soon returned to Maths, Paleologas didn't seem to mind we were late. All
Maths, we just did problems on the board then it was Lunch. Lunch felt short
compared to Recess, Alan and Daniel (wearing Alan's jacket) went to play footy
with the Year 7s, using a tennis ball. I sat with the girls drinking my Lemon
Iced Tea, I'd bought earlier. The girls began to crack up at Daniel cause he
looked like a post then he began imitating Alan. This then prompted Sheila to walk like Alan. Sheila's attempt
at "Alan's walk" was priceless, she
looked drunk more than anything.
Susan then brought up Sheila's driver license so I grabbed her bag, squashing
her tit in the process and ran off cracking up at her picture. Sheila chased me
around the back until I gave it back. Rain then began to start and stop, Sheila and
Susan went for cover and Daniel came back. We watched Alan, Mikey and Phuc
tackle each other amongst the feral Year 7s, as they played bull-rush, and
talked about the much anticipated Easter Show. Then it came time for Maths, yet
again. The answer was 32°.
In Economics, we were given a choice whether to complete our posters on the
Circular Flow Of Income Model or continue our real work. We chose the posters
and Alan regularly popped in. Susan took a million years to make her letters
absolutely perfect while Daniel and I "ruined" it by outlining it ugly-ly. The
rest of the period was spent colouring with the "Hot Supre" blue.
The bell went and everybody began to burst into tears, as it was last day of
term. Hugs and kisses were exchanged and Alan's announcement of his love for
Susan was finally revealed. Sheila wept as Alan and Susan exchanged hugs,
screaming "Why!" repeatedly.

APRIL 20TH,
2006
The official first day of the Easter break was upon us, lingering in the back of
our heads for a prolonged time. First it was on, then it was off, then it was on
again. This was our day at the 2006 Sydney Royal Easter Show.
I, along with Alan arrived at Villawood Station at exactly 10:30, as was
planned, and called Susan to see what was up, after pranking her several times.
Her mother was on the phone and she would be there in about 5. After 20 minutes
and 2 trains we saw Anna, Sheila and Susan walking leisurely in the distance. I
told them to hurry because the train was coming in 5 minutes but still they
walked extremely slow up the station stairs. They got their tickets, and as I
had said earlier to Alan, they took forever to figure out their money. We got on
a Millennium train to Lidcombe, once arriving at Lidcombe we walked to Platform 1
and caught yet another train to Olympic Park.
Once there we walked through the dense crowd to finally reach the other side of
the turn stiles to greet Alan already waiting there. We asked where to first?,
Sheila and Anna immediately said "Showbags!" almost in sync. We walked to the
Showbags Hall and Susan made us go into the "Woolworth's Pavillion", where they
were giving out samples of things. We walked to the pack to a Fruit Display, it
was stuffy and packed so we quickly walked out of there. We then walked a short
distance to the Showbag Hall where the girls were disappointed by the fact that
there was no "Elmo" bag. We then walked around looking at what to get. Alan and
I got a 'Mars Everybody' Bag then we went to get 'Yupi' bags and then 'Bertie
Beetle' bags. Finally, Anna got the 'Happy Tree Friends' bag and we walked out
of the Showbag Hall and sat for a bit, shoved all the showbags in my bag and
then...
We then proceeded to the rides, the girls were being wusses and didn't want to
go on any "extreme" rides. We decided we were going to go on the Bumper Cars but
first we needed to purchase tickets. We got 140 tickets for $110 and then we
queued up. It wasn't long till we were at the front it was then I told Anna to
"watch her back". The ride began and either Anna or the car was fucked cause she
was stuck in the corner while everybody was driving around her. I saw this and
took full advantage and hit her which coincidently helped her get out of the
corner. The rest of the ride was spent trying to hit everybody else but the ride
didn't go for too long and 36 tickets were wasted.
Next was the Ranger and before we were even on the ride, Sheila was shit scared
and shaking. We got on the ride and the final safety procedures were followed.
Just as it began to rock, Sheila was already screaming. From then on the entire
ride I couldn't stop cracking up, while Sheila couldn't stop screaming/swearing.
"Fucken stop the ride!" was one of her many outbursts. After the ride came to a
halt, Sheila told us of her dilemma and her strategies to counteract the force
of gravity (wrapping her legs around Alan's), she came out of it sick. Sheila
then got a drink and still sick we went on the Ferris Wheel. Queued for ages but
then Alan pushed in front and we crammed 5 into one carriage. The ferris wheel
was boring and Susan's camera came out. Sheila was still dead from The Ranger
and Susan pressured everybody to take photos. So she ended up taking photos of
the crowd below us. Once we reached the top, the girls began to panic. The ride
finally ended and Sheila needed to barf. We walked around the Showbag's Hall, to
the toilets and Sheila forced out her 'V' she had earlier. We then sat for a
while and Anna got a drink from the vending machine while we ate some of our
lollies. Sat for a good 10 minutes and Sheila wanted to buy more, more, more!
We walked back to the rides and then decided to get something to eat. I got a
"Hotdog on a stick" while everybody else got a "Cheese on a stick". Dirt tasted
better than what I had to eat. We then sat down against a brick wall and was
surprised with a call from Rathy, after 23 missed calls. Susan then asked
everybody if they wanted Nachos, Anna agreed although I pointed out she could
not eat them as they contained meat. Anna screamed. The question was left
unanswered and Susan did not get nachos. We then proceeded to sit and watch the
people sing on the big Coca Cola screen. Soon, Anna and Susan noticed Rathy and
others. We tried to remain inconspicuous but they soon saw us and walked over.
We soon left and Sheila told Rathy to wait there and we would be back. We walked
into the Showbag Hall yet again because the vending machines were cheaper.
Sheila bought the 'Dolly' and 'Chupa Chups' showbags and I bought the 'Yupi'
bag. Bought a drink from the vending machine and then Anna had to leave. We
walked her out and on our way bumped into Thomas.
When Anna had left, we went to the nearby toilets and Alan got a Daily Telegraph
for free. When Alan and I had returned from the toilets, Sheila waited outside
and says to us "my boobs are crooked" as an innocent bystander walked past,
looking puzzled and a bit aroused. We then walked the much anticipated "Animal
Trail". Followed the paw prints printed on the ground, walked past the sheep,
goats, pigs and cows. I don't know why Susan was taking a picture of the back of
a cow? The stench was too much and the girls began to run the walk. We quit half
way and went back to where Rathy had been waiting. He had gone home. We watched
the wood chopping for a while, NSW was handicapped by a minute and only came in
at forth.
We then returned to the rides with what was left of our tickets. Went on the
Bumper Cars again and had head on collisions with Alan several times. We then
split up, Sheila and Susan lined up for the "Break Dance" while Alan and I
wanted to go on another until we found out how long the line was. We ended up
tagging along with Sheila and Susan as we were about to leave soon. Break Dance
was not very fun except for the occasional hurting my neck. We left the rides
and the Easter Show and met up with Sheila's sister in front of Telstra Stadium.
We went up to McDonalds and Susan and I got McNuggets while Alan got a McChicken
Burger. Took first train to Lidcombe and were lucky to see that the Liverpool
via Sefton would come in a minute. Got off at Leightonfield and walked
recklessly into the night...

Get off my property.
APRIL 20TH,
2006
I'm never going to go to another movie marathon again. My Sunday Night/Monday
Morning was spent in a crammed cinema watching three outrageously crappy movies.
Much heated debate was over When, Where, Who, What, How and Why was occurring on
that night but in the end we all ended up getting there.
Firstly, I went to Alan's to pick him up and then Sheila's to pick up Susan and
herself. Drove down to Liverpool and drove through the carpark until we reached
the roof.
Secondly, met up with Thomas and we chose which marathon we would watch. We
inevitably chose Marathon 1 which included 'Scary Movie 4', 'Eight Below', 'The
Shaggy Dog', in that order.
Thirdly, we got popcorn and drinks, I got a five dollar 750ml bottle of 'Pump'
water. We lined up in a longer queue than at the Easter Show, to finally enter
the cinema. Also, in the line was Jenny, Sarah and Star. Reached the doors and
was stamped.
Fourthly, waited a million years for the movie to start. 'Scary Movie 4' was
incredibly bad, the opening scene involving Dr Phil was lame and stupid. The
movie didn't get any better as it went on, it had no real plot and was only
somewhat funny. It was too late or too early to laugh?
Fifthly, we had a short break and went outside for a bit then back in to watch
'Eight Below'. I can not believe I didn't walk out of that movie, instead I
slept through it. Anything with "Based on True Events" in it's title is bound to
be shit and this didn't disappoint.
Sixthly, had another break, we all looked pretty dead, and then back in to watch
yet another dog movie... Everybody except Susan slept through 'The Shaggy Dog'.
Then it was time to leave.
Seventhly, we walked through Liverpool in very cold conditions. The girls stayed
back to wait for a taxi but was kicked out of Westfield and waited in the cold
while Alan, Ray, Sandra and I walked to the station. We reached the station, and
I couldn't feel my nose. Sheila and Susan finally decided that the taxi was
never going to come so they got into a taxi and drove down to the station where
we had been waiting. Got on to the very next train and got home at about 6:30.
Sleep, Sleep, my precious.
