And Victory Would Belong To Moi!

Yay!!!
Hi Five!!(a virtual one)

Victory is mine!
I have succeeded in my mission of the Cardboard Boxes!!!!!
(previously mentioned in my Cardboard Boxes Post)

I came up with a solution to burning thousands of cardboard boxes. I suggested the CALM (Conservation and Land Management) kids that were going to burn the boxes, flat pack them and then mum would bring in the trailer and stock crate then take them to the bug recycling plant in S.A. Now not only was my proposal much more sensible and environmentally friendly than burning them but it was ten times as easy too.

I was really proud of my efforts and know that my arguing with the Assistant Principal, the year 11 and 12 coordinator, my year level coordinator, maths and science teachers was not in vain!

Hoorah!

I also pointed out that the school would even make money out of it as you are paid to recycle in S.A!
Smart, no?

I am ECSTATIC!

Words

I'm a pretty wordy person, or at least i reckon so.I try to expand my vocabulary and utilize words that have a better meaning to what i am trying to say. So it bugs me when people make up words, its really funny to here some.

The other day i was sitting down with my mates at lunch and one girl goes " I really hate in clas how your not allowed to conversate with others because you have to do your work"...'Coversate' how'd she come up with that? and i mean good on her for not being boring and just saying talk but its not i word and so i told her (not to embarrass her or make myself sound really smart, just that next time she can get it right and someone whom she isn't friends with won't pick it up and make her even more embarrassed than i would.)and she said to me "No its definitely a word" and i said "no, Kat it isn't trust me.It's either you converse with someone or have a conversation with them. NOT conversate" and she would not believe me! and she still says it all the time and i makes me cringe :P.

But in saying that i would like to know some people can make up words and suddenly they are real words like 'ranga' which somehow made it into the Oxford Dictionary (and really ranga is just an abbreviation of orangutan)and other words that are said but never become an 'official' word?
suggestions?

Australianisms

I was at school today and i was just chilling and all i could hear was people calling out to others using their Aussie nicknames lol.
I reckon everyone has a nick name in Australia lol.
A boy always is called their last names with and "e" sound or an "o" sound. and if their name has an R in it they become "azza" on the end.
Charlie Smith becomes Chazza Smithie/Smitho.
its great i love it. Bella doesn't work that's why I'm Bee but Eyre become Eyrey.
that is definitely one of my favorite Aussie cultural things.

Eyrey :D

Hectic much?

I haven't been able to blog in aaaaaaaaaages.
Ive been so busy lately.
on Monday i had State training from 5:30 to 10:00 i was soooo tired.
Tuesday i had my lesson and that was such hard work i got home and fell asleep straight away.
Wednesday i was up all night studying- French exam and Humanities test revision :D.
tonight finally a chance to breathe lol.

Livia E. Bitton Jackson

She is my new hero.
Born Elli Friedman a young Jew from Czechoslovakia.
I just read her book, "Elli-Coming of age in the Holocaust". It is the most amazing story i have ever heard.
I definitely prefer it to Night, and i thought nothing could be better than that!
It is Elli's story of her time in Auschwitz, Dachau and various other camps.
It is beautifully written by an amazing girl.
She went through such terrible atrocities yet her outlook was still refreshing the book wasn't bitter or anything it just told her heart-wrenching story beautifully.
I have been doing a bit of research on her and what she continued to do after was amazing. She moved to America and became a college professor and wrote more books and heaps more
She is just oh my gosh.

Gustav Klimt

Gustav Klimt is my all-time favourite artist ever in the world! My bestest best favourite!:D
He is really excellent and i am a huge fan!
I have seen some of the most favourite artworks in the world and in my eyes none can compare to his work!
That really is a compliment as i have seen The Mona Lisa, The Venus De Milo, the whole set of the garden party paintings by Monet and the set of bridges, A heap of Renoir's and a gazillion Van Gough's.
My favourite is The Kiss ( the two people kissing :))
If ever you are in Vienna go the the Bellevedere Palace and in Paris go to the Musee D'Orsay and see the Klimts. Bellevedere has the Kiss.(The palace is worth seeing in itself).Actually second thoughts the Musee D'orsay is worth checking out on its own too :D.
he was one of the most prominent members of the Vienna Art Nouveau movement.
A legend!

Bella, I'm no art expert but i know what i like!

Adios Gruen Transfer

sadly my favourite show, the Gruen Transfer, has finished for the season (sigh)

I Love This Pic

Great band that i just heard of.(French actually) its their fourth album and it has just been released. i heard of it because its Triple J's feature album.Take a listen to 1901, its a great song.

Lost

I went for another awesome trail ride again today. was really fun- until i got lost. i wasnt too worried at first but then it started to get darker and darker and darker and i dint know where i was. yep, i was scared. I eventually found my way back to the main road and i saw mum driving around looking for me in the pines. I felt very bad because i had really worried mum that i hadnt come home, she though id hurt myself or something. i felt really awful but it wasnt if i tried to get myself lost.

Bruce Springsteen

Dad was in the mood for some music today and he decide on some Bruce Springsteen.
I was trying to watch To Kill A Mockingbird and i could hardly even hear it. It i already hard to hear as it is a old movie. I was so grumpy. It has taken me over a week to try and watch this movie and now that i have time i cant hear it grrr

Racism

as much as we try to deny it racism is a big problem in our society.
I get really angry when i hear it. Ive written about some unsavory things Ive heard before.
Now today i was talking to one of my mates and she was telling about the local footy on the weekend and how our seniors team won.
then she goes to me "But some aboriginal F*** called Luke (her boyfriend) a cowgirl" and so i laughed and said that is a pathetic insult and she goes "Nah he went up to the abbo and had i go at him". this really annoyed me. If the man who insulted him hadn't been Indigenous then she wouldn't have cared and neither would her boyfriend, its just not right. the another time someone called him "half-cast" which is stupid in the fact that he is clearly not, but who cares honestly? but then he skitzed out tat them too. Why other and she goes "well who'd wanna be called that!" as if it was the worst thing in the world!
I just don't her, or any one for that matter when they ta;lk like this.It makes me very disappointed din her for sure.

Lacrosse

Just writing about handball made me think of some other alternative sports that i love.
Lacrosse is one of them, its such a good fast paced, interesting game.
My family and i always play it.

Europe

Ok Europe is awesome, good sites,people,food,cultures and languages but i think one of the best things to come from Europe is European Handball.
We played it today in P.E it was sweeet.
My team absolutely killed it Yay Go the No-Tags!
Expect one girl full on punched me but then like stuck her nails out and scratched me. It cut my lip and i have some scratch marks on my face. It wasn't intentional but it still really hurt! :P
Good fun have a game some time!

Cardboard boxes

Q: What do you call 24 blonds in a cardboard box?

A: A case of empties.

Ok i really hate that joke but its the only cardboard box related one i could find.
Cardboard boxes. not something that comes up in normal conversation but are a very important part of our life. they are used for so may things.
So anyway yesterday in class we were asked to move a massive pile of cardboard boxes to the oval because they were going to be burnt.
How crazy is that?
there are so may that in 20 mins 30 kids hadn't even made a didn't in the pile we had to move!
So why burn them?
RECYCLE
our school craps on about being environmentally friendly yet they will burn thousands of cardboard boxes on the oval.
A. the oval is gonna have a massive burn mark on it and is gonna be useless to play on till the grass grows back.
B. its gonna stink out the place, and:
C.Its is such a waste because f we recycled them we could use them again!
I asked the A.P why this was happening as she goes "Oh its to hard to anything else, it will cost $100 to get them re-cycled"
say what?
only $100 to have them disposed of responsibly.
gosh i just don't get it.

The Sixties

My friend Alice is hopefully brinigng me a couple of dresses to see which one will sute me. I HOPE she remebers coz i have been asking her for oh I dunno, 2 WEEKS. haha i think she will though i have faith lol.

EuroVision

So i was watching Eurovision and it cracks me up. the two hosts are the massivest tools.
The chick is 2008's Miss Universe (you can tell why she chose modelling over like, i dunno, law or something) and i dunno the guy is just some random dropper.
It is in Russia so both are Russians and their English is good but very rehearsed.
Miss world just laughs and smiles and repeats stupid sentences and the male host is all "Ya,Ya Okkkkay. Ya hmmmm".he also is constantly trying to feel up Miss Universe. It cracks me up. the girl one is like " I vill press ze majik botton and ve vill se za vinnnnners." ..guy one "Ya hhmmm Ya Okkkkaay.". It's great!
can't wait for next year!

A Book Marathon

I am a bookworm. A real one. I kinda am gonna sound like a snob but i hate when people pretend to read all the time to show off or something i dunno it annoys me.But yeah i love books lol.I would read a book a week at least. I have always read and always will. So in this last week i have gone through two books both complete classics. To Kill A Mockingbird and Night by Ellie Wiesel. So, To Kill A Mockingbird would be one of the best books i have ever read, hands down. I know why it is such a classic, the one thing i don't understand is why it took me so long to read lol. yeah Harper Lee is a genius. If anyone hast read this book, do so. Night is fantastic to. It is the story of Ellie Wiesel a young Jewish boy that during the Holocaust was taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau.Now this book isn't for the faint-heart for sure. It is unbelievable though. both his writing and what he writes about.mmm yep read this to.
A main thing that i like about these books is that they have a very mature theme and you have to really understand the subliminal and be able to follow the sub plots and the little insinuations. I like that they are at a high reading level.
i was given these books by an English teacher, not mine but the other year 10 class's. She said that i was he protegee and that she loved having me around becuase it was refrshing to see someone with a higher general maturity and reading maturity than the rest of my year. I was so flattered!
She said whenever i want another book to see her. She has already given me a pile of 12 books to chew into I'm keen. I reading marathon. Bring It!
If anyone came to me and said "what are 10 books that i must must read?".Both To Kill A Mockingbird and Night would be on that list.
If you haven't read these then, please, do!
Enjoy!

ODE

today i had a horse competition, a One Day Event. its in a neighboring town about 45 minutes away. i wasn't very happy because my dressage test was scheduled for 8:00 am in the morning so i had to leave home at 6:45 am....an early morning for sure.So i caught my horse but he just didnt wanna go on the float- i was sooo frustrayted!
so when i evetually got him on i was running really late it was like 7:20 or somehting we were in such as rush. really bad to be considering we wear twoing the float and there were plnety of kangaroos aroung, plus being a SUnday the trucks hadnt hit any so they were everywhere (that sounds kinda bad but kangaroos just jump into you they are so silly :D).
so i got to the event with no time to spare and i got tacked up but something was wrong with my bridle that took me like 5 minutes to fix. then once you saddle up you have to go to gear check where all your tack needs to be passed to make sure its all safe. the woman there was being so slow and i was trying to explain that i was LATE and she just kept pottering along grrrrr!
so i raced over to the dressage arena to explain to the judge that i was late and that someone else could go in front of me. she just goes "no you're late that your fault and you'll just have to ride" in a really snappy voice" which is totally wrong because the rules are if you ask the judge ad organize another rider to take your place your are allowed extra warm-up time, i like at lest 20 minutes warm up to get Prince settled.
So i raced to the entrance ( i also didn't have a whip coz i must have left if behind which was really frustrating). so i rode in and did my test but i forgot which way to go and stiffed up a but of it. i was so upset. im by no means a sooky person but i couldn't help crying a bit i was sooo frustrated with my self, Prince and the stupid judge. i just knew i was gonna get a bad score because if you get a bad dressage score you always get a bad placing for the rest of the day no matter what your showjumping and cross country is like.
so i grumbled a bit.
i ended up doing well in my showjumping and cross country getting clear round in both and it turned out that my dressage result wasn't bad because i had done most of it really well and that kind of canceled out the bad bits.
so i got 3rd overall with a mega cool ribbon and stuff and so i was pretty pleased.
im now going to have a nice warm bath, have tea, and watch the Eurovision Song Contest and an early night tonight!

Competition

I am someone who loves a bit of competition...Healthy Competition that is. I generally do really well in school, especially in English, Maths, Science, Humanities and French. No i think that competition can be a great hing as i often pushes you to exceed what you would normally think yourself capable of. However i get mega pissed when hat competition starts to be tinged with bitchiness and (i don' wanna sound up myself) but with a bit of jealousy and envy too. Mostly i am in a very supportive environment, my friends are pleased when i do well and i encourage them when he do well too. Lately though i have been hearing some comments that have really offended me like, "Geez I'm sooooo happy i bet Bella today. God she annoys me so much how she gets good results. im soo happy haha what a bitch!".(or along those lines i have heard a few lately so they become slightly blurred in my mind). No to me that's is sad because i have when people compare themselves to me A: because i think it is silly as everyone had different talents and faults and B: i sometimes feel a little embarrassed and insecure about it. Now when i hear these things I sometimes feel flattered because obviously i am good enough to compete with and a challenge to beat but it is just so petty! ARRRRRR it frustrates me because it is some friends saying it too!Now i have discussed it with some of my mates and they agree that it is stupid too so i dont understand why some people bother. i don't want to confront people however because i dont want to make a huge fuss, that's not who i am. i just wish they had never said it in the first place. I am so MAD! i just don't know what to do???

Australia

I'm not gonna go on raving today but i just want to say a little something about this amazing land....
Today really re-ignited the flame i have for Aus.My ride really made me appreciate just how lucky i am to be Australian.
Every thing was so beautiful. The sight was great but then there is just this smell that is so nice it is pretty much indescribable. Then the sounds. It was so quiet that i could ,no joke, hear the kangaroos jumping next to where i was riding.
I think being overseas just made me appreciate even more where i live.
argh its just too hard to describe!
If i hadn't seem Australia in winter then I'd say summer was the most beautiful thing ever but there is something about the winter that brings out the ruggedness and colour of where i live. It just takes my breath away,truly.
I just love this place i can't say it strongly enough!

Apres Schoolios

Came home.Got changed. Help dad with some cleaning. Caught my horsie. Then i went for a trail ride in the pines.I really needed this, a good gallop to clear my head and just run with it, my way of zoning out, of Me-Time.I wish i had of had a camera on me.I don't really like Pines in general because they aren't native and all that jazz, but there is nothing more beautiful than cantering my horse in the pines only hearing the echo of his hoof beats with water droplets from the rain this morning clinging to the pines needles like little shining diamonds and then slowly walking with the one,two,three beat of my horse's hooves and me softly humming "La Vie En Rose".As i was going along it was turning to dusk and the most glorious sunset was glowing,it was just one of those moments,you know?, a WOW moment.Riding like that, it is my ultimate chill-out thing.The feeling of this collective is indescribable.In moments like these (no i don't need Minties-bad pun :D) I am 100% happy to be me and living in the bestest best country in the world.
A Blissed-Out Bella.

P.S even though I'm no photographer ill get some picies next time and share a little slice of heaven with you.....

Schoooolies....

meh i was suuuuper tired today and was having ALOT of time concentrating.Maths was a blur. A good thing did come out of it i won this game called Multo ( a times table version of Bingo). Humanities was mega mega boring. We had a substitute teacher because or real teacher wasn't there AGAIN. I swear we have more lessons with subs then with our actual teacher!It really pisses me off because I personally love Humanities, especially history and anything to do with geography world histories,cultures ect., and i never get to learn anything because my teacher is a massive Dropper! the only half not so bad thing about Subs is that we don't have to follow our seating plane because they don't know we have one so i can sit with mes amis !English was bit of a bummer too as that teacher was away too! Geez!I love English and my teacher, she is a legend, so again a bummer not to have her. Not so bad because we are reading this book called "Deadly, Unna?" that's really good, and our Sub for today ready really fast so it meant that i could actually read normalally and not have to read a page then wait to be caught up to. that was a plus!.The bus ride home wasn't exactly inspiring. one guy smelt real bad then opened the window and blew his stinkyness up the back to me and my friend. Honest to god he musn't've have had a shower in weeks!

Debs

the Debutante ball.
Something I read just now on Anna's blog reminded my of something i was going to post last week.
For those who don't know what the Deb is it is a dance were girls in year 10 or 11 get dressed up in white dresses and have a few waltzes.
not to bag any one else's opinion of this but i think it is a load of Bull S*!&T.
It is supposed to symbolize i young girl turning into a "Lady" and coming "out" into society (very Jane Austen-esque).So basically when a girl is ready to go husband hunting.
To me this idea is disgusting. young girls objectified for men.
Now some argue that the Deb doesn't mean now what it meant in an earlier century.
So i ask them "What does it mean then?". I can never get a satisfactory reply.
Some say "it is important in a girl's development" or along those lines.Pfffft I know so may women who have done amazing things and never done their Deb or ever felt regretful that they didn't
The Deb is devoid of any real meaning any more. my friend Kat was talking to me the other day about her Deb. It is going to cost her over $1000!!!
i could go overseas with that much money!
I just don't get it. I'm sorry.
When you think what could be done for that amount it is really sad.
If people wanted to have dance why not just have a formal where you can get a nice dress that can be worn again and have just a nice time as you would doing anything else.
Sorry Anna.Love to hear your perspective.
Over and Out
Bee
P.S if anyone would like to give their opinion as to why they think the Deb is worth while then shoot!

Inspiration

I had my lovely Grandma come and stay at my place for the weekend.It's a pretty big deal as she lives in Sydney oh I dunno only like 16 hours away! :D
I love spending time with my family. My Uncle was also down and he is really great.
My mum is one of 5 children and i love having all my Aunties and Uncles down ( except for one he really gets on my nerves!).
I don;t see them often as they are all High-Fliers with their own businesses in Sydney and can't make it down very often.
I love the discussions I have with my immediate and extended family.I am treated as a grown-up, which i love!, and can have good talks about important issues and i am taken seriously.
I love cooking with my Aunty Mona- she is an excellent chef. For Christmas she bought me a pasta maker which i am OBSESSED with. Cooking is a real passion of mine. I love using fresh herbs and ingredients from Mum's garden and creating something special. I believe food make a moment and makes a good memory or occasion a wonderful one. I love to make stuff that makes people smile (also i don't mind getting a few compliments!)Whenever my friends come over for a sleep-over i love to cook them something, to make a moment magical which i truly believe only a good meal can do.
My uncle Isaac is fluent in French so i have good long chats to him practicing my fluency and conversation skills.
So anyway back to my Grandma as a parting gift she gave me a Little Green Book for me to write things that inspire me, make me laugh,Quotes i think are worth remembering or things/memories that i don't want to forget.
She told me it is special and very important to have a book like this and that when you feel down, have flick back through the pages to boost your spirits back up.
this little gift meant a lot to me because it was from the heart.She had also brought it in England a few years ago and obviously decided that I was special enough to have something like this. I really love my Grandma. She is inspirational. She was a doctor, she worked over seas in third world countries helping young women, she raised a family of five (with my Grandpa), she was a tower of strength when he died and she continues to live fully. She travels all over the world. She went to Norfolk Island last month and in 2007 traveled around Europe. She also does this funny thing were she repeats things she says like "I'll have some toast, have some toast,yes,hmmm, have some toast,yes toast". It always makes me smile!

Puppy School

today i took my baby to puppy school. i was a little apprehensive at first because i didn't really know how he would go.He hast really been anywhere with lots of dogs before and i didn't want to scare/over excite him too much. my friend and her aunt took me because both of there dogs to obedience and agility. Cobee and i were in the beginners class and i wont say it was a disaster but it wasn't far off that's for sure! There were kids in the playground near where we were and they were a little distracting for him :D. i finished my class but had to wait for my friend and her aunt so i chilled with a couple of the trainers and they gave me some tips and showed me some useful stuff that really worked! they also said he was really smart dog and he would turn out really well so i was stoked with that. i was so tired when i got home that i slept for $ hours and only woke up like 10 minutes ago lol.

Last Night

Proud

finished my challenge today!
soo stoked it was an awesome challenge it just felt so good.
okay so im gonna go for one of Barry's possibly for next week his suggestions weere:
-talk to a tree when people are walking past and act as if its talking back
-walk into a shop and if the ask you if they can help burst into tears and ask why cant people leave cant leave you alone.

I love both of these but i kinda need some ones to do around school coz i might not be able to go to the shops in the next week to complete them.

A good story

I was shopping to day in a sports store and i bout a pair of Adidas running shorst and a Russell Athletics jumper. $59.95 and $39.95 not too hard to add up, $99.90. then i had a $25 gif voucher and i said "Can i use this?" and she goes "sure....That'll be..." and pulls out her calculator. She had to use a calculator to work that?!
i just thought it was kinds funny.
Bee

Nearly there

so i set myself a challenge yesterday, to pay a compliment to everyone in my class. i thought i may take a little while because i didn't want to seem too weird going round and giving heaps of compliments to people i hardly ever talk to. which is kinda sad in a way that i don't normally give compliments to strangers which i always think is a good thing- it can make some one's day!
so I'm getting offtrack. i have 17 people in my class. today i dished out 11 compliments which i was pretty impressed with. i varied complimenting hair,accessories,work and even one guy's socks(hey they were cool okay?).
It was an awesome feeling, watching their faces light up as i said some thing nice to them and i smiled and felt all tingly.
I can't wait to do the other 6 during the course of the week.
If anyone is reading this give a complimet to someone you know and someone you dont know or dont know well.

Choose your own adventure!

I've been watching this show called "Lawrence Leung's choose your own adventure" it's really great this guy called Lawrence goes back and does all these things he dreamt of doing as a kid, llike becoming a rockstar or a world champion. So that gave me inspiratio to my start doing my own adventures. I'm titling it "Bella Eyre makes her own adventures".
This week my adventure is to pay a compliment to every member of my class.
Who knows what next weeks will be? I'd love to hear some suggestions.
I'll fill keep filling you in on my progress as I go. I'm going to try my best to complete my adventure!

What Did You Just Say?

I was sitting down at lunch with two of my mates when another girl came and sat down. She isn't really my friend but she is kind of part of our group and she is a good friend of my Bestie- she normally sits with me and my friends. I personally don't like her, i think she is boring, she hasn't got any real opinions-i find her to be bland she doesn't have any interests and hobbies and what ever conversation she makes is just shallow prattle. She isn't particularly mean or anything, she can be a little bit bitchy, but i just don't really like talking to her.but whatever thats not the point im not trying to bag her out or be mean you just have to understand my point of veiw and have a background of her personality.
Now I don't know if you have seen Girls of the Playboy Mansion I have seen it once at a friends house and yeah i personally think its one of the worst excuses for a TV show. It pretty much shows a group of Bimbo girls that mooch of Hugh Hefner the founder of Playboy. He sleeps with them whenever he wants even though he already has a wife.He is just a massive Man-Whore - sorry for that term.
So we were chatting away and she goes "It would be so cool to be a Girl of the Playboy Mansion, I love that show!" and I'm just like "what?" and she's like "yeah you get like everything paid for and stuff" and I'm like "yeah but you're practically are a prostitute!" and she's like "Nah its mega cool i like reckon those girls are really cool. I love Bridgette and Kendra and tho two 16 year old twins." and so i said "what not having to work is worth sleeping with a 80 something year old man whenever he feels like it. Do you have no respect for yourself? How can you respect those bimbos?You would honestly live like that, as good as a prostitute?". she just was like "Why not?" and shrugged her shoulders.
I mean everyone can have their own aspirations,goals,ect. but yuck how could you really want to be like that?
I am really not trying to be mean to this girl but i just think of all the sacrifices great women in the past have made to give women speech,freedom and the right to do something good with their life.It just saddens me to see what some girls reduce themselves to want to be, what a waste!

Comps

I had a really good afternoon. I rode my horse King and he was an absolute legend. He is learning really quickly, I'm so proud of him!
I have had a competition on King for the last 6 weeks in a row and i think all the training and hours im putting in to do well in my comps is really paying off!
Last week i had a Zone Team Dressage Comp/ State Qualifiers and my team of four won so we are off to State Champs in 5 weeks, I'm pretty nervous!
The training is FULL ON! Two 2 and a half hour sessions a week at the indoor arena an hour away is getting pretty serious.
I have not only got state but i have and One Day Event next weekend (groan) a 5:30am start!
After that my K Certificate 80Km Endurance ride, that is going to be Hard!
But I'm pumped!

Verbs

A life without verbs, you would be screwed. Actually you wouldn't even be that because "to be screwed" is still a form of a verb!So that got me thinking.Verbs are a pretty big deal and you definitely know that your important when you become "vebifyed" (a word of my own creation, meaning to be turned into a verb). So the phone used to be just be a boring old noun then it was verbifyed. So now you can phone someone on your phone...cool no. Take Google for another example. It used to be some small insignificant search engine and a little insignificant noun until it was verbifyed and now you say "Hang on I'm not sure i'll just go google that".I mean you know your cool and tres important when you are made a verb.
I wonder if one day I'll be a verb?
"yeah just Bella it".
I suppose i can dream!

Great Tunes

I really love music! i cant play an istrument excpet the recorder and when i sing i am completely tone deaf but really that doesnt affect how much i love to listen to music. in my opinion there is not another singular feeling quite like listening to an amazing song. I was on the bus today listening to my iPod and i just couldnt contain my self... i started to rock out and bust a few moves quite to the surprise of the bus's ther patrons i belive but man it felt really really good. nothinh motivates me like music, when i jog i have my "running playlist" including Muse, The Presets, Faker, The Arcade Fire and The Arctic Monkeys just to name i few.Every horse comp i go to i have my "In The Zone Playlist" including Josh pyke, Sia, The Wombats, The Temper Trap, Kings Of Leon and Angus and Julia Stone again just to name a few.Im no dancer thats for sure but when i listen to a great song i cant help dancing and sorry to anyone near me coz thats a hazard i assure you but music is just something else entirely. i recently heard some new songs that you might want to take a listen to: buttons by sia, white winter hymnal buy the fleet foxes, make you happy by Josh Pyke and The Science of Fear by the Temper Trap- i strongly reccomend them! though its not just new songs the classics are great, im a huge fan of sting and the Police: Dont stand so close to me, Roxanne and Russians are honestly some of the best songs of all time they are amazing!
thanks for putting up with this rant its a bit erratic i know :P
Woooo go misc lol

Saving the world by not cleaning my room

so if i got a dollar every time my mother nagged me to clean up my room, "Bella how can you stand such a pigsty" or "Bella you have a double bed yet sleep on a smaller piece of it that a single bed" or 'Bella! Bella! Beeeeellllllaaaaa! I just washed those clothes!", i would be a Gazillionnare or a Googleplexonnaire??!! :D no joke! i mean its the cliche isnt a teenager that doesnt clean their room? but this is false my older bro was fastidious about his room being clean.So anyway get to the point Bella, well i no im not a financial expert but i watch the news and all this talk of a GFC (not geelong football club!) and people loosing their jobs has got me thinking what can i do to help them wham! it hit me!.... Stupid celebrities that have so much money they cant think what to do with it hire P.S's aka Personal Shoppers and business men have P.A's aka Personal Assistants so im now looking to hire a P.C wait for it :P... a personal cleaner. sound good,no? i helping people get new jobs ...also they can help me with organisation lol i left my maths books behind today darn it!

My New Hobbie

So I've got this new hobbie, maybe you can't call it a hobbie, more of an interest I think. OK wait for it....Antique Shopping! No antique shopping INS'T nerdy it's the bomb! Penola in S.A is a great place for antiques, i bought a really cool vintage antique ring there.Healsville in Vic (near Melbourne) has some awesome antique shops and some cool Op-Shops there too! Forget up-market retail therapy my experinces show me that finding a bargain is the best feeling! I love the feeling that when i buy an antique is has History. I recomend it!
Bella xx

So my name's Bella, yeah so its comes with a few puns...
"Can ya Smella Bella,phew?"-you know im cool with that.pffft i know i have good hygiene
or
"guess what bella you're a fella"-again pffft i know im not a fella :D
but what i really hate is this:
"hey Bella, ella, ella, ey"-grrrrr i cant stand Rhianna or that song it really irkes me lol.

Bella

as metioned in my last post i had a french speaking test today, was awesome until my subjects lol on the up side i got to use my favoutite fillers "en fait" wich is "in fact" and crap i cant remeber how to spell it but here goes "zoute alors!" which means "bugger" lol cracks me up. so my opinion is if you struggling to make conversations use a filler... its a good way to buy time or a good way to bring something up. like say "en fait" and the person youre talking to will say "what" and you'll be able so show you bi-language skillz lol :D
Bella
