HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIRA

Finally we have another birthday, actually we hit the birthday season starting now.

Happy 16th Nira!! Have a fantastic day and I hope you get good presents from all.

I have your present all ready to go but you can't have it until the end of January. In the meantime, you have a letter.

Smile lots, try not to go deaf from people singing badly *cough* me on skpe *cough* and enjoy yourself ok??

I love you loads, miss you too, HAVE A GREAT BIRTHDAY BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS SHOULD!!!!!

Lots of love (especially for Nira) from Zara (and her beret)

P.S The little authors have something to say

All little authors: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR NIRA
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

And remember we love you!!

The four corners of the world

Howdy y'all.

So, I just finished reading a LONG email that Zara sent me from FREAKING FRANCE. Since the email was probably over a thousand words long, she asked me to blog for her so she wouldn't have to type it all up again.

So, Zara arrived in Paris and saw all the sights: The Eiffel Tower (at night!) and Notre Dame (so jealous) and the Louvre. She was unimpressed with the Mona Lisa, and I totally know what she means. The whole painting's about as big as an unfolded newspaper.

She is now safely settled in her temporary home. Her host family is nice, and her French is improving by the minute. School is hard, but she's having an awesome time.

WE MISS YOU ZARA! (I mean, I miss you about as much as I missed you before, but you're just having cooler adventures now.)

As for me, I'm enjoying the snow. Speedy (My horse, in case you forgot) is really improving. (I'm training him for competitions.) and it's almost Winter Holidays here.

Also, over Winter Holidays, I will be traveling to CROATIA. Because why not?

Best Wishes!
Rose.

End of Year

Hiya Everyone,

Why has no one been blogging? We have a blog. So that we can blog. So blog.

Yesterday, we down under girls finished high school! It was quite an event, lots of people crying and the like. The night before we had formal and Nira, Hazel and Enesti all looked beautiful. Our mini mes were all sited on the dance floor when Lil' Enesti's song was on, I think one might have almost been squished but they're all ok now, at least I hope they are, Little Zara is busy reading something, looks like a guide book.

I'm keeping this short because I have some stuff to do but I just wanted to say, it's been a fabulous four years and we've all grown up heaps, we don't look about 8 in pictures any more. I don't know what I'd do without you. Have good summers, have fun at college and keep smiling. You too, Rose, just not summer, not just yet.

Alright off to do stuff, DFTBA everyone.

Love Zara

A Series of Lasts

Hiya Again

The next two weeks are a a series of lasts.

Today we had our last day of playing in band. It was also the last full day of classes. Tomorrow is our final whole school assembly and we sign off on our final grades. Next week, we have formal and a special year 10 assembly and a very last day of high school.

As I said a series of lasts. Hey, that kinda sounds like a book.

Anyway, I hope y'all had a fabulous day wherever you are and whatever you did. My hayfever and I are signing off!

Love Zara

OMG ALMOST FINISHED

Hey hey

So as Zara said, us down under chicks have no more assessment left and let me tell you

IT

IS

AMAZING

No more weekends spent finishing work, no more evenings spent studying for tests. Well you know, until college.

OMG WE'RE IN COLLEGE NEXT YEAR

Yeah so, I've started putting up christmas lights and I've tidied my room (finally). I am looking forward to the early holidays. (hehehe lolz to you guys that have 2 weeks after us).

I guess thats it.

Bye

Enesti

Tired

Hi Everyone

I'm tired, beyond tired, I'm exhausted.

We Down Under girls finished our assessment last week. We have about 2 days left of classes and then ABW for those of us doing it.

It's almost December so that means it's almost Christmas and a birthday for one of us. Party time no?

Sorry this a short post but I need an early night and I need to fir some practise for guitar in,

Love Zara

A certain long-awaited occasion

Howdy y'all!

So, I just finished watching SEASON THREE EPISODES 1 AND 2 OF MY LITTLE PONY. It was actually not as good as I had hoped. BUT STILL.

/)*(\

In other news, this is my last day of free time for a week or so. I have play rehearsal every day for hours until the 17th, which is the final performance of Under Milk Wood. (Girls, I will try to get a recording of it for y'all.)
After that, I have a week off school for conferences and Thanksgiving. Oh, America.

Best Wishes!
Rose.

The Awkward Post After a Month(s) of Silence

Hey hey

 Hi people

I regret to inform you all that we've been lazy.... very lazy

 exteamly

Exteamly? I think you mean extreamly. But anyway..... up date from me.... I AM SO BEHIND ON NANO ITS NOT FUNNY

 Yeah. well I am behind on my homework because I procrastinate

Hehehe, my best form of procrastination is Tv with my Dad or Facebook or you know... my busy life that is slowly draining me of all the energy in the world so bad that i will collapse in a heap and fall asleep (hey that rhymes) for many days and nights... anyway. How are you Hazel?

 I am good, I am moving house so that is stressing me out and I am working which is stupid and they abuse my human rights.

 Moving... when is that again?

 This weekend, the final living there forever date is the 12th.

Eep! *claps happily* thats exciting!

 yeah. Do you have any exciting news?

I have my licence!! and I've had my first driving lesson with Mum... thaty was terrifying.

 Thats cool. I am too young to get my licence. 11 Days until I can get my licence.

Ahhh!!! So exciting. ugh my vocabulary is extremely low... Ah class is finishing (yeah we wrote this in science, what of it?)

 We need to go but this was fun and we both blogged. YAY!

Bye!

 Peace Out

Because We're Crazy

So, it's the 31st of October again. Most people's minds will go straight to Halloween with that date. But not mine or Enesti's. No, for tonight is the eve of a great challenge. In the morning we have 1 day to write 1667 words, 30 days to 50,000.

Yes dear blog readers, it's time for NaNoWriMo once again. Last year I did finish and I have the draft of a book on my hard drive. This year Enesti is embarking upon the epic journey with me.

Wish us luck, I apologise if I get snappy and encourage us to keep writing because at some point we are going to hate writing more than we imagine.

Good luck to all the other WriMos out there. Maythe odds be ever in your favour!

Love Zara

P.S Sorry about not posting yesterday!

Cold, Homework, and Extra Curriculars.

Howdy Y'all.

I know. I'm sorry. I've been busy!

It has been getting progressively colder up here. It snowed earlier this week. I've been breaking out the wool socks and puffy jacket. Not to mention the gloves and hats and long underwear.

I think my teachers hate me. I have loads of homework. I have very little free time. Homework is about 40% of my existence right now.

Another 40% of my existence is extra curricular activities. I am in a school production of Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas. It's a very... unusual play. Let's say that. Girls, I will be able to get a recording of it for you guys. DON'T JUDGE ME OR MY SCHOOL. Judge Ms. G, the director/ My year 7 and 8 English teacher. She's crazy. But cool. Did I mention that it's a very unusual play? The cast calls it '50 shades of Bizarre.'

I've also got Debate and Horses. Not to mention trying to maintain a social life. Also, my school requires that we do 30 hours of community service each year. So there's that.

Life is busy.

Girls, if we don't skype soon, I will definitely go insane.
Best Wishes!
Rose

Good Morning.

Howdy y'all.

It's actually 5:30 PM...

I seem to have fallen asleep for several weeks and therefore not posted much recently. Sorry about that.

Not much happened, because I was asleep. In my dreams, I went to school a lot. That's about all.

I will try to be more active.

Best Wishes!
Rose

Negative Two Sleeps

Hi Everyone,

Most of the blogger girls and I are on band camp right now. I'm sure we're having a blast because it's band camp! We do miss Rose those, we love you Rosie!

So right now when I'm writing this, I'm also packing. I own a lot of shirts but shorts are a different game it would seem.

And my dear cat climbed into my case, think she wants to come too! But she can't so I must throw her out. :'(

It's 48 days until France when this post goes live! THROW A PARTY IT'S UNDER 50 SLEEPS!!

OK, back to packing. Love you loads y'all. Oh I y'alled like Rose the other day.

DFTBA!!!!

Love Zara

5 SLEEPS

Hi All,

It's five sleeps until bandcamp!!!!

And I'm packing for it. And watching youtube.

Short post, I'm tired.

Love you all!!

Love Zoë

Woop De Doo

Yeah, yeah, I'm know I'm a day late, cut me some slack, it's holidays and I was out yesterday.

So, we all met up today. ALL FIVE OF US! It was amazing because we managed to get the four down underers in one room with a video connection to Rose that managed to survive. I will never know how.we did a bunch of story planning after lunch. I endured much teasing and Hazel and Enesti thought it suitable to tell me and Ni to get a room. Not amused.

Not much else to tell, we managed to eat almost a whole jar of nutella like stuff. I still feel kinda ill.

11 sleeps until bandcamp! Ok, off to do more story stuff!

Love Zara

Bruises

Hello,

Today I went to the movies and saw Hotel Transylvania. It was awesome, I highly recommend it.

 Anyway, I have proof I am a walking disaster. I have two cuts on my right hand, both  need bandaids and both of which get salt in them all the time. I also have a large purple and black scary thing on my right thigh that is about the same size as my phone. Something I was holding slipped at work and I stuck my leg out to stop it because they're not meant to be dropped. I really wish I had let it drop, the bruise is at the right height to be hit by everything. In fact, I can't sit my computer on that leg. Sitting it on my left leg is weird because I'm not used to this side of my body.

Also, this is post number 251! We are amazing, a quarter of the way to 1000. Bring it on! Congrats girls!

Well, all four blog girls are either ignoring me or not online so I'm off to find something to do now. Have a great school holidays if you happen to be on holidays, and if you're not have a good week.

Lots of love Zara

Morning Post

Hey hey

This feels weird, I'm blogging at twenty past nine in the morning....

I'm hungry, I think I'll go have some breakfast once I've posted.

So, I'm going to Floriade today... to watch a friend of mine dance. Yeah, and to see the flowers.

Then hopefully Hazel and Nira are going to come over to watch a movie or two.

OH!!! And its now October... so I've finished BEDOS. With 26 posts in 30 days... I'm happy.
Thanks for putting up with my lots of posts.... BUT HUZAAAAA! I shall continue.... Well I'll try.

BRING ON BEDOO .... maybe

Short post, but I'm leaving soon.

Now, TO BREAKFAST!!!

Bye

Enesti

*Crying*

Hey hey

Just got home from Nira's, Hazel was there.

We watched the most recent Doctor who.
We cried
We searched for cool Doctor Who t-shirts
I came home

Before I went to Nira's, I went to church and we had people over for lunch. Seems to be a recurring thing, people at our place to eat food.

Yeah well I'm off to go read a book. :D

Bye

Enesti

(Saturday's Post) Page Turning

Hey hey

I slept in
I ate breakfast
I went on Facebook
I read a book
I ate lunch
I read a book
We had people over for dinner
I read a book
I went to sleep

Yeah that was it...

Wet Friday

Hey hey

I just had to walk home... in the rain.

THANKS HOLIDAYS FOR MERRY WELCOME

So I didn't do much in classes today. In english we just watched some episodes of Community and ate heaps of chocolate. That was a lot chocolate. In maths we played round after round of celebrity heads. So much fun. Band was cool, we had probably a third of the entire band actually turn up, so we got heaps done. In SoSE we watched speeches and looked at how we could help the yr 9s running for school captain create good speeches. In PE... Nira and I sat on the edge talking to one of our good friends. That was pretty relaxing... Then I caught the bus home...

Yeah so it's been raining... ALL DAY!
As in when I woke up this morning at 7am there was thunder and rain that hasn't stopped except for small pockets of time the longest lasting 15 minutes. Yeah.... rather wet end to term 3.

BUT TERM HAS ENDED!  BRING ON THE HOLIDAYS!

Oh and sorry bout the late post for yesterday. I'd completely written it but forgot to click 'Publish' so it just sat there in post drafts..... Sorry.

Well I have youth group on tonight... If there is any chance that Gemfish reads this blog, I hope you can come tonight, we're making pasta.

Bye

Enesti

Only One More Day Of Term (Thursday's Post)

Hey hey

Sorry for not posting yesterday, especially cause it was my blog day. I wasn't too busy, it wasn't cause my internet dropped out, I just didnt get around to it.

Plus, you probably didnt want a post about me being in a bad mood.

ANYWAY

Yeah, so unintentionally Nira, Zara and I all left Hazel at school alone yesterday. (Sorry Hazel). My day was pretty relaxing, you know, other than having a doctors appointment smack bang in the middle of the day.

Yeah so there is only one day left till the holidays.

BYE

Enesti

Kaniffolus

Hi,

I also am not going to school today. Reason, I'm sick. No, don't worry, it's not demon pox, it's only the kaniffolus'.

That's about it.

Nira out.

SNUFFLEUFAGUS

Hey hey

Yeah, so like Zara my post has nothing to do with the title.

I too am not going to school tomorrow, as I have a doctors appointment smack bang in the middle of the day. Makes it a tad difficult timing wise. but oh well.

Oh congratulations to all the candidates who made it through the yr 9 preliminary elections. :D

Uh, I don't have much to blog about.

Still no date to formal...

Yeah thats kind of it

Bye

Enesti

ELEPHANTS

I don't actually have anything to say about Elephants, it just seemed attention grabbing.

Tomorrow I'm not going to school. I'm going to a Careers With Animals Day. I get to go to the zoo! I love, love, LOVE the zoo. 

I really don't have anything to say right now. Normally I have a million different things I can think of but today they won't make any sense without a back story and real names, they're not really important though.

Alright, I'm off to "Party All Night" while watching X Factor. Yeah, that's the theme.

Have a wonderful day tomorrow everyone!

Love Zara

PE. SHAKA

Hey hey.

Driving

Hi Y'all

Yes, I'm missing Rose, can ya tell?

Anyway, today I did some driving. I drove to Yass. Well, not all the way, just some of the way. Put I did drive through Yass and to my Granma's house. We (mum, brother and I) were there take Granma out for lunch because she had an operation on her eye last week and we thought she might be lonely. Lunch was awesome. We also went for a walk along the river. I walked in the river, my gypsy skirt tucked into the bottom of my shorts. Yes, I was wearing a long skirt. I like my skirt, don't judge. And I had my picture taken with a cardboard cut out of Dr Harry at the Hardware store. The cut out looks way to realistic.

What else has been happening? Saw a pair of llamas and a pair of donkeys. And the dinosaur museum has a t-rex on the balcony of it. AND ENESTI IS IGNORING MY NEWS AND IT'S NOT FAIR! Yeah, that's about it.

I went to work yesterday, saw dear old Hazel. Haven't seen Ni or Enesti since Friday. Haven't talked to Rose since last weekend. She really does talk about that horse a lot.

Anyway, I'm going to email a friend now.

Love Zara

*crickets chirping awkwardly in background*

Howdy y'all.

So... I've sort of not blogged all week or something. Sorry 'bout that. I shall try to do better.

Not much is new with me, really. Horses. School. Friends. (And by friends, I mean Horses.)
but not really.

We watched The Coolest Girl in school the other day. (From AVPS). It was my idea.

My friend informed me that I talk about my horse like he's my boyfriend. That was a thing.

I also have to take Health for two hours a week for about fifteen weeks this year. It's a graduation requirement and apparently all the health I took down under doesn't count. @!#$%&$*@#?**!!!
Anyways, on the first day of Health, I literally had to explain to a certain unnamed idiot in the class that Asexuality does not refer to a person who can reproduce by themselves. After I did so, the teacher told me she saw a future for me in sex education. NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO OH GOD WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I walked up to a guy wearing a red T-shirt in Target the other day and asked him for help finding something. (We were there to buy a printer.) He then informed me that he actually didn't work there. It was really embarrassing.

I'm not sick anymore, but now both my parents are. It's not contagious. No idea how this happened.

Tomorrow is Spirit Week at my school. Do schools even do spirit week over there? Anyways, there's a theme for every day. Monday is Mustache Monday. Then there's Formal Tuesday, Everyone-in-your-homeroom-dresses-the-same Wednesday,  and Hat Thursday. On Friday, we have to have this Homecoming Field Day with our sister school. I'm not looking forward to it. On Friday, we all have to wear the school colours. (Note that my school does not have uniforms and most people have no idea what the f*ck our school colours are. I thought they were green blue and white because half our sports teams are called the Rapids, but apparently this year they're black and yellow, because the other half of the sports teams are called the Stars. Last year they made us wear blue green and white.)

The one thing that's going to be interesting on Friday is that last year, on Homecoming Field Day, it was my last day of school up here. So my friends sort of turned it into an All-About-Rose day. Definitely feeling the time slipping away here. I miss y'all.

Also, NEW CHAPTERS ON POTTERMORE! woo!

Best Wishes!
Rose

Welcome to the Weekend of Boredom

Hey hey

So Nira was going to come over for a sleep over tomorrow night... but her parents said no.
EVEN THOUGH WE WERE GOING TO DO WORK>

And now I'm really upset and angry and and upset... and angry.

So now I don't have any plans for the weekend but a music rehearsal and church.

Angry

Upset

I WAS HAVING A GOOD DAY

*grumbles*

Dance was lame today.

Masterclass is behind

Don't like Science

English was boring

SoSE was average bordering on not good.

AND EVERYONE IS GETTING DATES TO FORMAL AND I'M NOT

ARGH

I'm not happy

BYE

Enesti

And another day ends

Today was my last day of work experience. I had loads of fun and actually learnt quite alot. Today one of the girls used me as their model. After sitting in a chair for an hour I had a full head of curls, I love it.

The down side of this being the end of work experience is that I am going to have to go back to school on monday. This weekend I am working both days 8 till 4 and I so do not want to. I think I am going to talk to my manager and ask to have less shifts but am a chicken and may not.

I can't think of anything else to say and dinner is ready, I am also ridiculously tired even though I shouldn't be.

Peace Out
Hazel

Youtube Fridays?

Hi Everyone,

Zara here, blogging from English because we never do any work EVER! Yeah, still a little annoyed at that.

Anyway, aparently Friday is youtube day in here so we've had youtube going all lesson. We (Nira and I) actually got the teacher to play "Breakeven" by The Script. We sang along, people said I was good at singing.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! HE'S PLAYING FRIDAY BY REBECCA BLACK! MAKE IT STOP! NIRA MY EARS ARE BLEEDING!

YES!! SAVED! Moves Like Jagger by Maroon 5! YES!

Ok, our ears over safe and I put on a weird american accent according to Ni. I thought it was pretty good.

Alrighty, I'm going back to singing!

Love Zara

TAKE THAT

Hey hey

TAKE THAT ENGLISH!!

I FINISHED THE ESSAY!!!!

Bye

Enesti

Hazel, Rose, Nira, Zara, Apple Jack... Oh and Me

Hey hey

So I've pretty much finished my essay so here comes the longest blog from me in about a week, here goes.

Rose, its been awesome to be able to skype with you on the last couple of weekends, hope we can chat again this weekend, Nira might even be at my place.

Zara! I will not eat you! Though a couple of two sentence posts is a LOT more than lovely Nira and Hazel have done in certain chunks of the blog's history. Thank you very much.

Nira, we are so screwed for that science report thing...

OH AND NIRA

*high-fives*

Passed road ready test!!!!

Hazel, DUDE WE MISS YOU!! Hope that you're having heaps of fun at work experience. Missing you in classes.

OMG SCIENCE TODAY!!!

BEST RELIEF TEACHER EVER

Ok, imagine Apple Jack, make her a human and age her to adulthood.

Meet our relief teacher. IT WAS AMAZING

At first she said Y'all and Nira and I just looked at each other... then she said "that's right sugar" and we were like "WOAH" and then it was "You go girl" and "Darl" SHE WAS EVEN WEARING COWGIRL BOOTS!!! OMG

Best. Relief. Ever.

Death to Essays

(oh the stuff in italics is what I wrote today)

Hey hey

I apologise for not posting yesterday.  My essay was in dire need of work. So here is yesterday's post which I half wrote... and now am finishing . ONWARDS

Hey hey

I HATE THIS ESSAY...

I'm onto my 3rd draft (now 5th) and and it's ridiculous! (it still is) My brain is now a mush of words and letters and punctuation.

Have to go now, guess what, I have an essay to write (wow, surprise!)

Bye

Enesti

Yeah so, it's an annoying essay.... But it will be finished tonight and you can be relieved of my complaining.

Bye

Enesti

DEATH TO PRACS

Hi Everyone,

I have literally just finished my 20% science prac, it is due tomorrow. My head kinda hurts now. Last science prac of high school. So science prac, BITE ME, I don't care any more.

Hey, Enesti, why do one/two sentence posts count towards BEDOS? I know you're busy and all, but two sentences?? (Teasing you sweetie, don't eat me).

Hazel would like to be a drunken fairy. I'm surprised the people on my bus didn't stare at me while I laughed and laughed at the messages she sent me on the way home. Yes HAZEL USED HER PHONE! I miss Hazel, haven's seen her in two days.It's weird.

Nira and I are plotting world domination as per usual.

Rose and I vid chatted for over an hour on the weekend. I can't believe we hadn't talked "face to face" for so long! It was great to see you Rosie.

Anyway, I had better get some sleep. We have an evil assembly tomorrow, some nonsense about five ways week and they'll go on and on about the athletics carnival. Don't get me wrong, I loved it but I don't need to hear about it, I was there.

11 and a half weeks until France! Also, 97 days until Christmas. And 4 weeks until band camp. OK countdowns done!

Love Zara

Work Experience

Hey Peeps,
I don't know why I said that but I won't change it.

Yesterday was my first day of work experience and I will be going for the rest of
the week. It was fun and really interesting. I didn't do much but wash and watch the professionals work but they were really nice and explained everything to me. On Wednesday/tomorrow they are going to teach me how to wash and dry hair. I am enjoying myself.

well I don't have anything else to say.

Peace Out
Hazel

Quick

Hey hey

Will blog better after my essay is finished.

It hailed today. That was cool.

Eww assembly tomorrow...

Blogversary BEDOS

Hey hey

This is really short considering I arranged the blogversary post.

Nira came over today, that was fun... especially when she was riding her bike to my house... and got lost. Had to go find her and ride back to my place.

That was kind of it today.

To think that one year ago there was a chemical fire in Mitchell

Bye

Enesti

Happy Blogversary

Ya know, the norm.

Enesti: Hey hey

E:  GUESS WHAT?????
...... come on.... guess...

Zara: My missing hair ties are climbing Mount Everest?

Rose: A giant green-striped armadillo set up camp in the assembly hall?

Nira: Little Enesti is leaving us to go yodelling around Europe?!

Hazel: The clouds are turning green?

Little Enesti: A purple mosquito the size of small dog danced the tango?

Enesti: Ahhhhh No

Zara: A microscopic, orange owl just delivered chocolate cake?

Rose: A turquoise dolphin ate my grandmother's second favourite purse?

Nira: That jellyfish shaped piece of pizza is actually wasabi flavoured?

Hazel: My plum bubblegum jumped off a cliff?

Lil E: You fell on your head and suddenly had super powers due to brain damage? 

Enesti: Oi! No

Zara: The Jade elephants in the lounge room are responsible for the abduction of the the sunshine?

Rose: All our socks have gone into revolt and are standing on the picket line?

Nira: Your silver tap-dancing mousse broke the world hot tea sipping record?

Hazel: Giant man eating plants are taking over the world?

Lil E: A DALEK EXTERMINATED YOUR PET WHALE!!!!!

Enesti: HAHAHAHAHAHA   NO

E:  THIS BLOG HAS EXISTED FOR A YEAR!!!!!!!!!

Everyone: YAY!!!!!

Enesti: Now a little reminder of the blog's past.

Zara: I've seemed to have blogged more than Nira and Hazel combined. Creating the blog's theme with the help of my gorgeous girls and taught Rose a little about Australia. Most importantly, being able to be silly with my friends and just talk with them all the time, and letting other people know about us.

Rose: I came in sometime in January (?) and have since spent a lot of time babbling on about my life. I have moved back to 'Up Here' *tear* and educated the readers about how weird 'Up Here' people are. Oh, and I posted the 200th blog post!

Nira: I introduced the blog to the little authors, I informed our readers about drop bears (Look up, stay alive) and I  have managed to blog about mainly random stuff.

Hazel: I hold the record for the longest time of not blogging. I have been able to blab on about my boring life and have been able to stay connected with my favourite girls.

Lil' Enesti: So I-
Enesti: Oi, this is me, not you. Well I got to post the 100th post. I have become much better at posting thanks to BEDOS. I have the most annoying mini me and but I love her anyway. I have generally just loved being able to see how my best friends' lives are going and share the weirdness with them and all reader.

Enesti: And a hope for the future

Zara: I hope that we can all keep telling our stories and sharing the magic of friendship with everyone.

Rose: I hope to manage more group posts with the other authors.

Nira: I really would like to blog a lot more, and actually post about stuff that is relevant to our lives.

Hazel: I wish to blog more, especially group blogs.

Enesti: Me, I wish to remember to post on my blog day and therefore encourage others to do so.

Lots of love from Zara

Best Wishes

Nira out

Peace out, Hazel

Bye.

and

HAPPY BLOGVERSARY 

TIRED!

I don't know why but I am so tired. It is kinda weird because I really shouldn't be. I had work today with Zara, but unlike Zara who gets the day off I have to work tommorow aswell.
I am starting work experience on monday and I am so excited. I will spend a week working at CoCo's hair in Watson.

CROWS! Zara going back a couple of conversations of us being alone in the year ten courtyard, it is Crows not Ravens that live in Australia. We have Crows but we don't have Ravens. So it was the Crows being dogs.

Well I don't really have much more to say so I am going to go and do some homework.

Peace Out
Hazel.

So... Exhausted

Hey hey

I am so tired it isn't funny.

I spent almost the entire day choreographing a dance outside in the sun. It was a really nice day today.

I had fish and chips for lunch, My  brain is refusing to work when I try and do my english work and Hazel still needs to send me stuff for science.

It's been a good day.

Nira is coming over tomorrow.

That's kinda it. I'm going to go watch Hunger Games while I eat dinner and then I'm going to go to bed.

Bye!

Enesti

It's still Friday....

Hey hey

Ok so this morning I woke up and did feel happier than I did last night. :) So thats good.

Uhh did a bit of dance work stuffs...

HAZEL YOU MUST SEND THOSE PHOTOS TO ME

and

HAZEL AND NIRA YOU HAVE TO SEND ME THE PARAGRAPH STUFF FOR SUNDAY OR I'LL JUST MAKE UP RANDOM S***

Anyway... went to a board game night tonight, that was heaps of fun. :)

I'm really tired.

Sorry for the recent short posts, nothing has been too exciting.

What the eff is Pedagogy?

Howdy y'all.

To answer the question posed by the title, Pedagogy (pronounced ped-a-go-jee) is studying how people learn. Like big schools vs. small schools, etc. My school (often described as a 'hippie school') is kind of obsessed with what they call 'pedagogy of place' Which is like how where you learn affects how you learn. (This isn't relevant at most schools, until you realize that my school is two renovated office buildings and we have exactly zero normal-looking classrooms. Also, we have a classroom in a garden.) Anyways, the whole thing is sort of boring to me, because I think that learning takes place in your brain. But my teachers will not shut up about it. So you know what?

I've decided something.

Yeah, where you learn affects how you learn.

For example, I would learn SO much more if I was at Hogwarts.

Best Wishes!
Rose

And Now For The Thursday Post

Hey hey

I did remind Hazel to post today but she may not so... don't get your hopes up. (Prove me wrong Hazel :P )

Nothing much happened today...

Not having an amazing day but hopefully I'll feel happy in the morning.

Thats kinda it, see you tomorrow.

Bye

Enesti

*grumbles*

Hey hey

Sorry again for not posting yesterday. My brother once again disconnected my internet.

Yesterday we (yr 10 band and thus all the authors -Rose [sorry Rose, wish you were there]) had a joint concert with Ginninderra Wind Orchestra and it.  Was. Awesome. :D

Can't wait to join it next year... If there are enough spots free ;)

Yeah that was kinda it.

Bye

Enesti

Thank God,

OMG! Thank you Zara.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nira out

NIRA READ THIS NOW

I HAVE THE MINIATURE SKATER, SHE IS ALIVE AND WELL!!!

She will be returned tomorrow but for now, Little Zara has her under supervision.

If she ever does that again, I don't know what we'll do.

I'm really scared now

Hi,

so I got home and found this on my bed

If anyone can locate her for me you will receive a

Please, anyone.

Nira out.

Wet Hair

Hi

I washed my hair about an hour ago. It is still wet, please remind me why I have so much hair?

Also, I changed the blog text because I thought it was a little hard to read on the awesome new background.

I really have nothing else to say. Nothing at all to say.

PINEAPPLES!!

Love Zara

Backgrounds, Legs and Doughnuts

Hey hey

So I changed the background... cause we'd had the last one for a while and I really liked this. :)

MY LEGS HURT

I don't know why they are in SO much pain but can I just say that the walk home today was awful. It's like my calves are on fire whenever I walk or stretch my legs.... NOT GOOD

My family made doughnuts on Sunday.... while I prepared for my essay... They were real good doughnuts.

I'VE SEEN THE NEXT EPISODE OF DOCTOR WHO (and so has Nira) I won't say any more incase I get into trouble about spoilers.... heheehe spoilers.

Thats it for now, sorry its short but today you get 2. :)

Essays, Tests and Printers

Hey hey

Ok, sorry I missed yesterday's post, my Internet dropped out when we tried connecting our new printer. So this is yesterday's post. Today's soon to come.

Ok so... We got a new printer! It's a big printer...
like, imagine a smallish cereal box,
lie it and another one next to it with their narrow long sides together then times the height by 6.

yeah its a big printer

I had to write an essay yesterday... the one I was freaking out about on Sunday... Didn't go that badly... :D

I had a maths test yesterday... EWWW

I didnt like that test... Lets move on...

uhhh actually not much else about yesterday...

BYE

Enesti

TIRED

I am Tired and my feet hurt but I figured I had better blog. I worked today and found out that making chips for 3 hours straight in the middle of the lunch rush, while a dog show was on is NOT fun.

I am meant to be revising for the math test I have tommorow but am not. Oh well. I will just have to live with a C.

On happier news, my cat has taken a liking to hiding under my doona and is not comming out. I am alsotrying out being an only child for the next 2 weeks and am spending the weekend alon as my parents are going away.

I can't think of anything else to say so I will go atempt to study maths.

Peace Out
Hazel

Australian Federal Politics and TV

Hey hey

Ok so, I have an in-class essay tomorrow on Australian Federal Politics and Democracy and Minority Governments and stuff....

I still have heaps of planning to do.

Did you know that before 2010, the last Federal Minority Government Australia had was in 1940?
Yeah

My Dad and I have recently started watching an American show that has some stoof to do with political themes and what-not. It's good.

I think I'm going to start watching The West Wing soon... Yeah haven't watched it before.

OH!! The first Dr Who was on last night... I watched it last week. Probably going to watch next weeks episode tonight or tomorrow evening. Yeah sneek peeks at Dr Who... It's not illegal, its up on I-View.

Anyway... I think thats it for now, Yay for BEDOS!

Trans-Pacific Madness

Hey hey

HOWDY Y'ALL

Rose and I are incredibly awesome and have decided to do a joint post.

It will be the most awesome post of all awesomeness. 

DFTBA!!!! Yeah so, other than being sick, how are you Rose?

Well, see that's the thing about being very sick. You don't get to do much else. How are you?

Aw, life must be boring for you. Me? I'm tired and pretty good.

Enesti and I are on skype. Plotting to shut she-who-must-not-be-named out of the blog for good. 

She isn't that bad... she's just.... active

Yes. Well perhaps a more appropriate topic would be how to keep Little Zara from killing something. 

Agreed. I've restricted active-one's computer time, so the opportunities will be less frequent. I just hope that she doesn't find someone else's account to hack.

Indeed. But right now the question is... who stole my moose?

It wasn't me! I swear! The last time I stole a large animal was a friend's giraffe... And even then I put it back before they realized it was missing!!!

You had better not be lying. My moose are very precious to me. And I know what you're capable of.

I did not take the moose.

hahahahahahaha SHURGS!!!

I love how we never conjugate that verb. Like *shurgs* is the equivalent to "I am shurgging" lol

Well we did establish that its not particularly easy to shurg... I mean, its a backwards shrug...

I think it's sort of a sideways shrug. Like, a backwards shrug would be a gurhs...

Fair enough...

HEY ROSE!

ENESTI


I'm about to GURHS

Watch out! She's gurhsing!

YEAH *gurhs*

How would you pronounce that?

pronounced Gerrs

LOL. ilye. 

ilyr. <8>7

7.5???

Ok... Not what I meant

Anyway we should probably finish up.

Indeed. Well, this has been lovely! Rose Jones signing out.
Best Wishes!

BYE

P.S This time Rose we click publish... not save. ;)

I'm Amused and You're A Bully!

I am so sexy! And it was very mean of you to say otherwise.... plus swearing to kill me isn't a positive attitude on the blog. :P

YEAH!

MINI ME! GET OFF THAT COMPUTER!!!!

Lil' E: AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! *runs off*

Woah... ok, lots of posts today....

Little Enesti and Little Zara,
The blog is not a chat site, stop using it as such.
Fight somewhere else.

Little Enesti,
I'm am restricting your computer time.

Oh and because I actually posted amongst all this banter, today is continuing my BEDOS!!!

Bye

Enesti

Little Zara Is NOT Amused

Spell my name properly Lil' Enesti.

Love Little Zara

Right Back At Ya Little Zara!

Hey hey (feels weird saying that)

Hello Little Zara, It's Lil' Enesti here, I hacked Maxi Me's account cause she logs out now.

<3 Lil' E

I'M SEXY AND I KNOW IT

Dear Lil' Enesti

Lil' Enesti, this is Little Zara. I have permission to use Zara's account. Read the letter carefully.

Love Little Zara

Thanks Zara

Lil' E: Ow!! OW!!! LET GO OF MY EAR!!

Hey hey

So, I came home this afternoon to this open on my desktop:

Thanks to Mini Me.

Lil' E: Blame Zara! She showed everyone the template and sent you the link!

You were on my email account? AGAIN?

Lil' E: You're the one that leaves it logged in!

ARGH    *lets go of Lil' E's ear*

Lil' E: Someone is grumpy

I wonder why?!

Lil' E: ..... Because I wrote you that letter, and hacked your email and..... other stuff

Other stuff????

Lil' E: I have to go... BYE

GET BACK HERE YOU!!!!

ahhh I give up.... anyway thanks to Mini Me, I have continued BEDOS. 

See you tomorrow

Enesti

Trash

Hey hey

Ok, so today at school we had the Trash Assembly. Thats right, the TRASH ASSEMBLY!!

Where we listened to ways that will 'help' our school not be such a rubbish tip.

THEY ALL WON'T WORK...

Yeah well in SoSE today we counted the votes on which idea the school will put into action.

Mwahahaha not gonna tell you the results

Anyway, after counting the ballots our class had a discussion about if the process worked, our views on each of the ideas and if we could have done it better....

Part way through this discussion Madam Trash (who shall remain unknown) who is running this whole trash business came in and our class had to tone down our hating-on-ideas and our teacher almost swore with her in the room... twas funny.

Madam Trash decided she'd inform the class that the winning idea would work and blah blah blah...

Near the end of the class... in fact 20 minutes before the end of the class I had my hand up to join the conversation commenting on why the winning idea won....

BUT THE TEACHER NEVER PICKED ME

THATS 20 MINUTES WITH MY HAND UP!!!!

Not happy.

I also stand as the only yr 10 that doesn't get to do their solo at a joint concert next week with Ginninderra Wind Orchestra.

NO I HAVE TO MAKE MINE A DUET

*grumbles*

Anyway, thats it for today's BEDOS

Bye

Enesti

AND IT IS A NEW RECORD!!

I Now hold the record for longest period of not blogging. Sorry Nira you no-longer hold the title. I am so bad and for that I apologise.

So what has been happening to me. Well... On monday I went to my dance class and now Nira dances with me. It was fun, but I think Nira found it easy.

Tommorow is the athletics carnival so we don't have to go to school, instead I get to hang with my girls and do nothing while others compete. Well... all my girls except Rose.

On thursdays Enesti, Nira and I have road ready, because we want to be able to drive, but because I am an idiot and now have a job that doesn't understand that I have a life. I have been working on Thursdays and have been missing it. I have been doing my catch up during lunch, while I could of been doing much more productive things, like talking to people, being unsociable and reading and EATING.

I am currently listening to my ipod which is BROKEN! I am really anoyed because the screen is locked and won't show anything except 1 screen shot. I have just finished eating Brioche, which is a french bread with chocolate and it is so good.
I counted my colection and Iown 28 dragons amd fairies as well as 1 statue of a weeping angel.

That is all I can think of right now so I am going to go and look at the meanings of different names.

Peace Out
Hazel

HELLO ALL!!!!!!!!

So, I know I haven't blogged in a while but I can ex.... well, I can't actually explain. All I can say is sorry.

ANYWHO, I have some big news.

























I GOT HUFFLEPUFF PREFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those of you who don't know, I'm a Hufflepuff and have recently entered my fifth year at Hogwarts. And, when we got our letters with our book lists there was a prefect badge!

Also, my cousin was sorted into Gryffindor. Cocky git.

I think that's it for tonight.

Lil' Nira: WAIT! I have news for the dudes!

What?

Lil' Nira: So I had this skate contest yesterday and it was totally narly dudes! The was so much stacking and I nearly sykced myself out man. This one dude, his leg was so twisted that you could see the bone.

Get to the point. I need to finish the blog.

Lil' Nira:Whatever man. So I got down to the finals and the other dude totally flipped out and stacked. It was nasty man.

Yes,

Lil' Nira: I WON DUDE! I WON!!

Bye guys

Lil' Nira: Bye dudes!

Nira out.

When Awesome Occurs

Hi Everyone,

It's been a pretty good day in Zara land.

I wore shorts for the first time in MONTHS!! My fabulous mum and brother got me chocolate. The sun was out and today was warm. The sun is still up at 5:45pm, you know pretty awesome stuff.

Just when I thought today couldn't get more awesome, E and I stumbled across the AWESOME! This is just great.

 So Mr Future Lover, one of these would make my whole life! Thank you in advance!!

Yeah, so. We're getting closer and closer to 1 year of blogging about CRAZY stuff. An example of crazy is having a discussion in French (speaking French) about how she liked to hunt Armadillos and make Armadillo soup. Yup, that's what I did today.

Also Little Zara is feeling a touch sarcastic today so I am keeping her away from the keyboard and my cheat sheet pens. I had better get back to work on that sheet.

Have a wonderful week, get better soon Rose, DFTBA everyone.

Love Zara

A Belated BEDOS

Hey hey

So I've decided (a tad late) to BEDOS
Blog Every Day Of September


So my few at the end of August I'm saying count for the first 3 days of this month. ner ner.

So lets get this show on the road!

Mwahahahahha!!!! I BLOGGED!

Ok, thats kinda it for today.

Have a nice evening

Bye

Enesti

I LUV THIS POST.

Howdy y'all.

So, I totally only decided to blog right now because it's the 200th post and I WANT IT. Sorry, girls. I give permission for you all to add you own comments in this post, below mine. Don't edit anyone else's because I WILL KNOW.

Also, it is a very important time for me. First of all, Happy Labor Day Weekend, everyone! No one knows what I'm talking about...

Explanation: Labor Day is a 3-day weekend in honor of the American workforce. All the service people and laborers, etc., have the weekend off. And it's a party. There's fairs and fireworks. My stable's performing at the State Fair.
Also, Labor Day means School.

Labor Day happens late this year, so most schools have already started, but mine HASN'T. We start on Tuesday. And of course, since this is my school, we don't go to our homerooms and learn each others' names and get syllabi for every freaking class.
No.

We get on a bus. And drive to the next state over. And live on a farm for three days.
It's an organic farm, and we own a share of it. In the spring, I planted onions and potatoes and stuff. Last year, it was huge for me because a) it was the first thing I did as a high schooler, and b) It was the last thing I did in America before I moved and met all of y'all.

It's almost our Anniversary of friendship or something like that! *ehugs for all*

So this is obviously a busy time. Exactly what the doctor didn't order.
Even if I was physically able to ride my horse and hang with my friends (who do a considerable bit more running than y'all. ) and go on roller coasters and do the scheiß-ton of maths that's sitting on my desk,

I can't.
Instead, I am lying on a couch.
I haven't worn pants in days. I miss pants.
Trying to get my lungs to chill out as they fill with water.
((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))((don't think about The Fault in Our Stars))

Don't worry: it's highly curable. Pnumonia. But it sucks a... *mentally feels Zara's glare* carrot. I had a carrot earlier. It tasted better the first time...

Okay. I'm going before I bring down the mood of this post. Girls, permission to chime in is granted by moi.

Best Wishes!!!
Ms. Rose Jones, author extraordinaire. 

YAY FOR SPRING AND HOGWARTS

Hello,

Hogwarts Express is pretty cool. Spring is FINALLY here and I didn't get to spend the day outside in the sun. I was on the Express... (Little voice in Zara's head "Totally on the Express...")

So besides the Hogwarts Express today I went to work. I no longer smell like work but I can steal hear the beeping of the machines in my head. I burnt my thumb at about lunch time but besides that I'm all good. Besides the whole "Oh my goodness I am exhausted and feel like several football teams used me for target practise". Yeah, today was busy.

Tonight my dad and I are going to see Steel Magnolias. His school (he's a teacher) is performing it. Should be lots of fun.

Tomorrow we (Mum, my brither and I) are taking dad out for breakfast. BRING ON THE FRENCH TOAST!!!

AND this is the 199th blog post here people! Get excited because we've almost made it to 200! And we've been blogging here for almost a year now. So we have plenty of reasons to party around here. And NO, Lil' Enesti will not be in charge of party planning. That is like giving sugar to a child with ADHD, nothing good will ever come from it.

Anyway, I'm off to take a nap/read a book/research Amish people because they really interest me now. Have a wonderful weekend and Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there.

Love Zara

WOAH DID HELL FREEZE OVER?

Hey hey

Look! I'm here again! 4 days in a row!!!!!

Ok, I wrote this yesterday but meh, it's going up fri so ya know...

I'm probably on my way to go camping at the moment... hehehe it's so weird to write in the future...

Anyway... what did I do 'yesterday'?
Oh that's right, Nira and I choreographed a dance for school stuffs...

Oh due to the fact I am going camping, I'll write a better poem than yesterday's. :D

OMG THE HOGWARTS EXPRESS LEAVES TOMORROW!!!!!

Have fun at that haircut Bryn. ;)

Yeah so, if none of us blog tomorrow, we're..... travelling.

<3 you all.... unless I don't

Bye!

Nesti

Post a la 3

Hey hey

Look at that, 3 days in a row... ok again this one is scheduled but meh.

So, I'm thinking I'm going to go camping tomorrow... I think I shall... you know, beach, sun, days of sitting around relaxing, it's a hard life.

I think I shall...

Guess what everyone! I'm probably going camping!

(Mind you by the time this post is actually posted my mind would have been made up and it will be a yes or a no... but oh well let's roll with the probably)

Hmmm Oh I wrote all you other authors a poem...

Rose isn't red
Nor is Hazel green
Zara is normal coloured
And Nira... she's like Zara.

hehehe like it?

Hey, how about this? If I do go camping I'll write a better poem. Deal? Ok.

Bye!

Nesti

TWO DAYS IN A ROW

Hey hey,

Woah! I'm back! Well actually I wrote this yesterday and just scheduled it for today... but ya know... details.

We had a year assembly today... know idea what happened cause I wrote this in the past.... Moving on let's just pretend I wrote this today.... Wednesday... WOAH THE DAY I'M ACTUALLY MEANT TO POST!!!

So, I didn't go to school on Monday... yeah stayed home and watched movies... I did also have a valid reason... but I aint gonna tell ya 'cause I dont wanna.

I've been helping Nira write a story of hers... Thats cool...

The four of us who live down under are writing an original story... heaps of fun, its awesome to finally work as a group to create our own world instead of borrowing someone else's.... BTW Thanks J.K.R we appreciate the loan.

Which reminds me... ROSE! Why have I not received any of your ff HG recently? Being on German camp was ok... but I haven't recieved any since you left... which was a painfully long time ago.

So... What else can I say? OH I can say Bollard... hehehehe Bollard

Bye

Nesti

Lobsters and War

Howdy y'all.
I am back! I sort of forgot to tell y'all that I would be visiting relatives in Maine. Oops.
I had a great time boogie boarding and sunburning. (Though the waves and sun were much stronger Down Under. Also the company.)
What's wrong with the people in Maine, you ask?
OH MY GOD MY FAMILY IS CRAZY. All my uncles talk about is war, war, war. Like seriously, I say "Yes, Australia was very fun." and my uncle says "Australia reminds me of the battle of blah blah blah" queue an hour of horrific stories.
Also, it's a family tradition to eat lobsters. Since this is Maine, the lobsters arrive in a bucket, alive and freshly caught. They get dumped in the sink, where they sit in this horrific pile of clicking and gross. Then they get boiled alive and eaten with hands. It's a very messy process and I got sprayed with lobster juices.
Needless to say, I just eat pasta.

Also, girls, I discovered an amazing new series of books that Y'ALL ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO READ. The first one is called The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima, and the series is called The Seven Realms. It is amazing. I read all three of the existing books in about three days. Seriously, I think I'm in love with all the characters, even the evil ones. READ IT. Please. You won't regret it.

*coughs* oh yeah. And I'm sick. I think I have a fever but we can't find the thermometer.

Also, about what Zara said about University prices: It's absolutely true that the price of U.S. colleges is ridiculous. My family has literally been saving money all my life. There are people in their fourties who are still paying off their debts that they got into when they were nineteen. Take it from me, y'all don't want that.

I miss y'all like crazy.

Best Wishes,
Rose.

What's regular posting? ;)

Hey hey,

So its a bad point when you can't recall if you've blogged in the last month. I do know I have blogged more recently than either Hazel or Nira but its still sad.

So I'm here to cheer you all up cause you've missed me. (You have, don't deny it.)

What's happening in my life?
School, homework, housework, other work.... I'm sensing a lot of work... between you and me, all that work is a tad too much. I think its time for a party....

PARTY AT YOUR HOUSE.... FOR YOU.... I'LL PARTY AT MY HOUSE....
WOOO PARTY...

phew... I'm tired... how about a hot chocolate, oh wait I have one already. Yeah.

What else is up in my life?
I'm single... *winks*

uhhh I read a book on the bus today... good book...

Well I think that's it for today... I SHALL POST MORE!!!
Motivation? Not feeling bad for not posting...

BYE

Nesti Out

Because It's Not Monday

Totally just thought it was Monday. This is not a good sign.

So, I don't have to take biology at college and can still do the course I want at uni. Thank goodness for bridging courses. And I know what uni I want to go to, even though I'm not at college yet.

Speaking of colleges and unis, if Tony Abbot is elected as Prime Minister he wants to bring in the huge uni fees like the US has for colleges. This could end badly for us. VERY badly.

And I feel obligated to say BLOG FOR GOODNESS' SAKE!!! WE HAVE A BLOG FOR A REASON AND IT SEEMS ROSE AND I ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO USE IT!! I don't care if you schedule posts or don't post on the day you're meant to as long as you post more than once every 50 centuries. Thank you!

And now I shall take my grumpy hat off and put on my sad hat. As you have probably have heard by now, Neil Armstrong is dead. The first man to walk on the moon and the one we heard all about when we were little is dead. When I heard I was like "What? He's dead, not possible!" Guess I was wrong. I call for a moment of silence.

*Moment of silence*

Ok, Avengers is out on DVD tomorrow. I start my new job on Saturday and pick up my uniform on Thursday. I'm selling my last box of chocolate for band camp.And we choose courses for college soon.

Now I'm off to walk the dog.

Have a good week everyone.

Love Zara

A Letter To Mynah Birds

Dear Mynah Birds (pronounced miner),

Would you kindly refrain from having fights over my head? I have enough trouble looking out for swooping magpies, I do not need you noisy pests having mid air fights at the same time. One of these days I will be setting Sparky on you. Mynah birds, you will rue the day that you chose to annoy me!

Sincerely,

Can I Please Just Walk My Dog In Peace?

Hi Everyone else,

How are you all? I'm pretty good, I have survived the test from Hell. I swear that my teacher didn't teach some of the stuff on that test.

So not much else to say. Have a great week everyone!

Love Zara

Highlighters

Howdy Y'all.

Highlighters are cool. Really cool. I think I'm obsessed with them.
What are they good for, you ask? Calligraphy. That's what.
That's right.
I do calligraphy in highlighter deal with it. If I had the right kind of calligraphy pen, I'd probably still use highlighters because the felt-tipped calligraphy pens are super expensive. But they look really cool. 
I'm sort of on a calligraphy kick right now. And most of the things I write are in German. Weird.

Li'l Rose: Oh mai gawd you r such a nurd.

Oh great. You're back.

Li'l Rose: I noww riiiiiite?

That was sarcasm, idiot. Whose brain did you even come from?

Li'l R: Enesti's.

I shall have to have a word with her. Why don't you just go... do something else. I'm busy. And you're annoying.

Li'l R: Ur not busy. Ur sitting at home watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and doing maths.

Girls, can I sent Little R back to you guys? God only knows where she's been all this time, and I really wish she'd go back. But I miss you guys. And will someone teach her to type, for gods' sakes!

I'm giong back to watching Buffy. Best Wishes.
Rose.

Essay

Hi Everyone,

This is short, I've been writing an essay all afternoon and now I need sleep.

ROSE IS BACK!! Well, back to her home, not back to us, but she's back enough to talk to!! We love you Rose! Nira and I are planning to start capitalising the German way in English to see if the teacher notices. Wish us luck.

I never want to hear about the Trojan War again.

I'm going to clean my teeth and hop in bed. Night!

Love Zara

In which Rose struggles to English.

Howdy, y'all.

A. I am back from German camp.
B. Nazi jokes are so not funny, I am holding back a lecture. Don't go there.
C. The actual post:

So, basically I got up at 7:20 AM this morning. Be impressed. And I still don't respond to my name, because at Camp, everyone has a German alias. And I keep expecting people to behave like they do at camp, which is to day, bursting into random songs in German, speak with wild gesticulations, and blast German dance music and dance to it like maniacs. And I haven't seen a single pair of Lederhosen so far today, either. That's got to be a record.

On Friday, there was a giant celebration called International Day at my camp, where all the other camps came to our camp and we basically celebrated world citizenship and stuff. There was an American camp, too, and it was pretty cool getting a view of what we must be like to native German speakers. GAH! WHY IS ENGLISH CAPITALIZATION SO DIFFICULT! In German, you capitalize all noun and substantive adjectives and verbs.  For example,

"Harry Potter is the best Book of all Time" instead of "Harry Potter is the best book of all time."

(It took me several tries to type the English one correctly.)

So, what else is new?
Well, my mom bought groceries in Hell recently. (It's a town in Norway.)
And I'm going to go visit Speedy later. Hooray!

Well, I'm going to jumpstyle now.
Best Wishes, y'all!

The Actual Post

Hi Again,

Two posts in one day, yes this is madness I know. But because we're not sparing expenses today This is NOT Sparta!!

So, we were in SoSE during the last post. I am currently at home in the lounge room, listening to my mum order dinner. We're having takeaway tonight and man oh man does it sound good!

So what's been happening in our lives? School for all of us sans Rose, she's at German Camp, learning to be a good little nazi (I KID, I KID), homework, jobs, social lives and sleeping. Because sleeping is good and should be made a class at school. Apparently I came out of science and looked like I had been sleeping for a long time. We'd really been watching a documentary called Crude, which was about oil and, while it was a little interesting, I was tired and just zoned in and out all class.

Anyway, I'd better go and have a shower and then do some essay writing!Have a good evening and DFTBA!!

Love Zara

P.S. *Waiting for Lil' Enesti to pop up, she's better and I think she might hi-jack this post....

QUICK BEFORE SHE CAN SPEAK POST IT!!

WE HATE MACS

We also hate the school internet network. It's so slow.
And they never work!!
This is Zara and Nira here with an update from SoSE. In short, we're bored.
SOOOOOOOOOOO bored!!!!!!!!!!!
Lil' Nira - Dude, we should go like, skating. Or something.
No Lil' Nira, our teacher is reading this. "Quality Literature" and all that jazz.
Little Zara: And look it's time for recess!
Lil' Nira - Dude, time to break out the boards.
Little Zara: Not in the Hallways. Goodbye!
Lil' Nira - Bye Dudes

German

Howdy y'all.
I am at German camp. German dance music is blaring out the window and I'm typing as fast as I can. I've been speaking tons of German and enjoying the beautiful northern woods. I miss everyone and I've bragged to all my friends that I visited Down There.

Lots of love and Best Wishes!

Little Authors Have A Lurgy

Hi All,

TWO SLEEPS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY!! Sorry if I'm acting like a small child but I really like having something to look forward to it, Christmas, Easter, Band Camp, Birthdays, Holidays, Weekends, Public Holidays, Movies, Books, the list goes on. So if I ever seem like I have a very short attention span or have had too much sugar here, I apologise in advanced.

I kinda said what I had to say in my last post.

School's back, I like my SoSE but wish we were covering other stuff too. Health's looking really interesting but then again, I find weird stuff cool.

It's rather quiet around here at the moment. Hazel's off somewhere, Nira's not online any more, Enesti has disappeared for a while and Rose is at German Camp *snickers* I'm not sure where the mini authors are, Little OG is AWOL.

Little Zara: *Coughs* 

Did you get the lurgy too?

Little Zara: *nods*

I thought the mini authors were safe!


Little Zara: I don't think so. Lil' Enesti has it really bad.

Lil' Enesti: *coughs up a lung*

Charming, Lil' Enesti, go back to bed, Little Zara get some rest, keep those other mini authors under control.

And now that that's taken care of I'm off. Just so you know, Lil' Enesti had one of those funny icepacks on her head and a thermometer in her mouth. It's quite cute.

Love Zara

Lil' Enesti: I'm Sexy and I- *falls asleep* 

Naw, she needs her sleep. 

So....

Hi,

So... I know I haven't blogged in a while. But I am now. So there.

STORY TIME!! Everyone gather round. Ok, everyone ready? Good. So once upon a time a girl named Nira was google image searching up random stuff. And then one day she found something really cool. It was a blogging challenge. And so she thought that instead of doing it over many days, she'd do it all in one blog. And here it is.

1: I'd have to say my favourite of the 7 books would be... the Order of the Phoenix. I don't know why it's my favourite but it just is. Maybe because of Umbridge and Bellatrix and stuff. IDK.
2: (Note: I'm changing this to my favorite of the 8 movies) My favorite of the movies would be either the Prisoner of Azkaban, the Goblet of Fire or the Deathly Hallows part 2.
3: The Order of the Phoenix made me angry as it missed out on all the Quidditch. The Half Blood Prince, gawd, what can I say about that. No 'Weasley is our king'. All I can say about the Burrow burning is WTF??? And they destroyed Dumbledore's death scene. Thought, I must say, the whole raising wands in the air was a nice touch.
4: Least favorite female... Marietta Edgecombe. She sells out her friends and what she believes in.
5: Favorite male... Peeves.
6: The house I want to be in and the house I would be in are the same. And it's HUFFLEPUFF!
7: Favorite female... Bellatrix or McGonnagol. They're both strong women, they both fight fight for what they believe in and they can both kick ass.
8: Favorite subject... to learn would be charms.
9: Least favorite male... Filch. You know you hate him too.
10: Hallows. Most definitely Hallows.
11: I would love to say this was Luna or Neville. To tell you the truth, I really, honestly don't know.
12: Favorite paring... in the books - Tonks and Lupin, to read in fanfictions - Draco and Luna, to write - OC and Sirius/Draco/Albus Severus.
13: The Half Blood Prince. 'Nuff said.
14: Team Harry.
15: Neville Longbottom, Hannah Abbot and Luna Lovegood.
16: I think my favorite professor would be Flitwick, Lupin, or Hagrid.
17: My official Pottermore wand is 10 3/4 inches, made of English Oak, has a core of unicorn tail hair and is surprisingly swishy.
18: Surpisingly, I would have to say the Chamber of Secrets. I think it's because I was so young the first time I read it and I found it quite a bit darker than the Philo... Phylo... *Cheeks book* Philosopher's Stone.
19: Books.
20: James and Oliver Phelps, Helena Bonhem Carter, or Alan Rickman.
21: Dobby, because he is so selfless and kind.
22: Harry Potter. Duh. Why would anyone choose Twilight?
23: Ok, *Deep breath* Sirius's death, Dumbledore's death, Dobby's death, all of the DH part 2. Oh, that wasn't that many...
24: Dumbledore's funeral.
25: The book, yes. The movies, they could have done it more closly to the book but I was satisfied with it.
26: Accio, so I could find anything I lose.
27: The Invisibility Cloak.
28: Pansy Parkinson or Millicent Bullstrode.
29: I think it would be pretty cool to be a professor. Or work at Weasely's Wizarding Wheazes.
30: Harry Potter has had such a big impact on my life. Not only has it taught me valuble life lesons but it has encoraged me to be imaginative, it has helped me make friends and so much more. I know that I wouldn't be who I am today without Harry Potter.

Nira out.

The Crazy Music Post

Hi Everyone,

As most of the people who I know read this would know, school goes back tomorrow. 18 weeks left of year 10 to be spent at school. Scary thought isn't it?

So during the holidays I've been listening to a lot of music and I thought I'd surprise you with this post, which is about the music!

Song 1: The Universe is Weird: A Song by Hank Green. This is a song about the Universe and chemistry. I feel the need to mention that there is NO EDGE! Here is the link! And some of the lyrics: There's a lot of stuff all around you right now Your chair your friend your planet and your sister's neighbor's cow. I don't have a sister who has a neighbour who has a cow but I do enjoy the line!

Song 2: What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction but this is a COVER by Piano Guys. So basically these five guys play songs on the piano but not just with the keys, they use the whole piano, the wood, the strings, you name it they use it! It sounds amazing, go and listen to it!Listen to it here!

Song 3: No Way from AVPS. The reason I've been listening to this is because I'm writing a song fic with it. It's been taking a while to write because I always get distracted when I try to write it. Mainly I get distracted by singing/dancing to the song. The fic is about the Harry Potter Next Gen. The song is here, it's a lyrics video.

Song 4: Lego House by Ed Sheeran. I quite like this song along with Grade 8. I'm not sure how I should describe this but it's awesome. I originally watched the video because it has Rupert Grint in it. And Nira and I listen to it in English whilst we write so it's been kicking around my head for a while now. The video amuses me because you think that Rupert is singing it and that's just the video and then you discover that's not the case, watch it to find out. Listen and watch here.

That's all the music for you for now.

What else have I been doing? This week I: went to work(again) on Monday, didn't do anything on Tuesday except so writing, went to Nira's and rock climbing on Wednesday, Thursday I saw Hazel, we went bike riding and I did other exercise stuff, Friday I covered my maths book and made invites, that was fun, Saturday I rode my bike and read my book and discovered that yet again I am growing. Today (Sunday) I had homemade pumpkin soup for lunch, courtesy of my granma and we went to Mount Stromlo and had afternoon tea at the Scope Cafe. So it's been a good week.

And girls, try not to breathe the same air as me for the next few days, I seem to have acquired a cold. Hopefully it clears up before Thursday.

See you all tomorrow!

Love Zara

Off to Camp!

Howdy y'all.

Or should I say, "Guten tag, alle!"
I'm off to camp on Monday. That means no internet, no cellphone reception, etc.,

I will miss chatting with you girls. Enjoy your winter holidays! I'll be back online August 11.

Best Wishes!
Rose

Hiding Under The Table

Hi Everyone,

I'm not hiding under the table at the moment, that was my dog who was eating cat food. He's a kibble thief. It's a surprisingly effective hiding place for a small dog.

So us Down Under Girls are finally on winter holidays. Nira's away, Enesti's busy and I have no clue what Hazel's up to. This is only because she was sick on the last day of term. Not my fault!

So what have you been up to dear Zara you ask. Really, not much. I've had work (babysitting) twice, and have more tomorrow and Monday. My room looks like I robbed the library but I assure you I borrowed all of those books in a completely legit way. I made brownies with more chocolate in them than you find in Coco Black and I've watched all the episodes of "The Latest Buzz" It's been a pretty intense 4 days.

So it's the 13th of July. Yes, I know it's Friday the 13th but that superstition has nothing on me. On this day last year, Hazel, Nira and I went to the midnight screening of the final Harry Potter movie. It was an awesome experience. It's kinda sad to think that was a year ago. I celebrated by wearing my Hufflepuff scarf, Weasley jumper and Gryffindor Seeker shirt, which is green... It's weird.

I was going to say something else but I have no clue what it was. This is never a good sign. Oh, Chamber of Secrets is out on Pottermore but the internet had a tantrum and it crashed so I'm going back there when I finish this post.

And it looks like the dog is out from under the table so that's my cue to finish up. This is quite a long post by our standards. Girls, remember to blog.

DFTBA

Love Zara

The Land of the Free (or something like that.)

Howdy y'all.

So, this Wednesday was the 4th of July. Did anyone celebrate? I know I didn't.
So, for those who don't know, on the 4th of July 1776, the Founding Fathers (Ben Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, and a bunch of other important dudes in funny wigs) signed the Declaration of Independence, which was this document where they basically said "eff you" to the English monarchy and set up this new country blah blah blah. Anyways, people Up Here celebrate Independence Day by blowing stuff up and barbecuing stuff. I really don't give a buck. But I happened to be visiting relatives in lovely New York. I spent a day in the city and then drove out to the country. (There's more of it than you think. And it's very different form NYC. ) Anyways, we stayed in the big house on a hill in the country side and all but ignored the holiday. (We did light some sparklers, because we could.)

The downside of where we were staying is that there was NO INTERNET and NO CELLPHONE RECEPTION. (Translation: Cellphone= Mobile phone.)

Anyways, I'm back home and there is plenty of internet here. So, main point, when is 'Internet Day?' Because seriously, the Internet is more free than most countries. And it's the government that's trying to censor it, etc., There's a whole sack of dung involved in that, whatever.
Which is luckily a mostly irrelevant sack of dung at the moment, because the EU shot down ACTA recently. WOO!

Girls, I miss all of y'all a lot. People keep complimenting my friendship bracelets. I still have all of them. I'm going to make you guys some from Up Here and then send them. I love you.

Best Wishes

Grass Stains

Hi All,

So today we had NAIDOC Day, it's an improvement on what we've done in the past.

During sport, burionjin, I fell over and got a grass stain on my jeans, it's an impressive stain. Unfortunately, the impact with the ground has done some funky thing to my knee, so it hurts.

Little Zara: It's painful.

Hello you, where have you been?

Little Zara: The library...

Zara: Oh that's ok. My/our room looks like we robbed the library.

Little Zara: Sure does.

Lil' Enesti: NERDS! Lighten up and have a PARTAY!! 

Little Zara: You, deliquient, don't you have a test tomorrow?

Lil' Enesti: Umm, I think I might. 

Little Zara: STUDY!! 


Ok you two, knock it off. Lil' Enesti, please go back to Enesti. Little Zara, we have studying to do.

Little Zara: Goodbye lovely people.

Love Zara

Little Zara: *slaps a hand over Lil' Enesti's mouth to prevent her singing.

Uuuuhh.... Hi

Hey hey

Yes.... well Hi.

Lil Enesti: Dude, you're in trouble! you haven't blogged in AGES

Why do you always turn up when I'm blogging?

Lil' E: well.... I guess because you and I are psychologically linked, so I know what you're doing and I feel the best way of me expressing that I'm cooler than you is through the blog.

Of course....

Little Nira: YOU JUST GOT OWNED!!!

Lil' E: Go away, I'm talking to maxi me.

Lil' N: Fine. Later dudettes.*disappears*


That was rude.

Lil' E: Meh, she interrupted our conversation.

Right.... So, today I -

Lil' E: Today maxi me had Naidoc day at school. There was an interesting guest speaker guy... then she sang some songs, didnt do the sport she was meant to, painted an awesome (not real) turtle and watched some small clips about aborigines and land rights. After school she caught the bus to the interchange, missed her next bus by the smallest amount and ate some chips. Once she was home she played sims till she got bored then she realised she had messages from Zara, she apologised for not replying and then she started blogging. 
Dude that is creepy. How'd you -

Lil' E: psycho link. 

Right... well WE'RE going to go. Bye everyone.

Lil' E: I'M SEXY AND I KNOW IT!!

Bubbles

Howdy y'all.
I couldn't think of a good title.

So, I've had basically the best two weeks of my life. First I found out that Speedy is not only feeling better, but that I could start leasing him. And then I did start leasing him and I rode him on Wednesday and oh my goodness... *takes a moment to enjoy the horsey goodness*

Also, the Supreme Court of the USA passed some major components of Obamacare, and it looks like the US is going to have universal healthcare soon. Not to get too political or anything, but I'm glad we are. For more details, read any American political blog.

Anyways, I'm still enjoying my holiday. I'm going to New York tomorrow, and I'll be gone for a few days. (Not sure how much Internet I'll be having, girls. Sorry.)

Good luck to all of the Musical people!

Best Wishes,
Rose

Excuse Me While I Fall Asleep

Hi

It's muscial week here. I'm at school. I should actually be taking a nap. And now that I am finished my science work I'm blogging.

The interent at my house is dead. I feel like I have been hit by a truck. I even have the bruises to prove it!

But in all seriousness muscial was amazing last night. Four shows left! The amount of energy last night was awesome! You could almost fell it in the air.

Right, I'm off to take a nap on the library couches now because I have band next and I don't think my head can cope with loud music. Nira and I are going to be VERY quiet in English today.

Love Zara
