Le Voyage de Penelope

Another juice-filled few weeks have passed, with lack of updates on Extra Coffee. But if i were apologizing, very little people would take notice. Those people being (as usual) Marty and Dav.

Let's get this rampage furiously rolling, starting off with the past week.

Of course, the after exams were celebrated and remembered dearly afterwards, purely consisting of unstoppable nonsense and drinking, perhaps some dancing thrown in. I'm not talking about Matt's party, im talking about the 'lads gettogether'. We werent invited to that party, so we gave a big 'fuck you' and had the best time of the year.

Afterwards, a few pointless events occured. One of which being my adventure to the school on Monday after Year 10 was officially over. I met up with DD, and the plans were to finish our cakes.

No cakes were finished.
....so we headed home.

The following day, i went in to finish my cake, lacking company and having to talk to Ms Hagli for an hour and a half. I gained a few kudos for actually bothering to finish my cake, although the care-factor is low.

Then Wednesday i went in to sort out my subjects for next year, changing around a few things, leaving myself in satisfaction. Sooo...my subjects now are: English, Psychology, 20th Century History, Literature (i dont read, but who gives a fuck), Biology, General Maths (i wanted to ditch maths, but i need it for my psych uni course...annoying shit) and Human + Health Development.
Nerdy subjects, but i spose thats expected for a Year 11 student.
Oh yeah, and i met up with DD and Beef and shiz. People left, and i played basketball with DD for a bit before heading home. Good fun.

Y'know, i just can't be bothered doing all this pointless shit. Sooo much preperation for a future job, so much stress. I mean, if you take an accidental educational stumble in year 11 or 12... your future could be at stake, which is shit. But theres nothing we can really do about it.

Anyways, Thursday i cant really remember doing anything (mental blank).
But on Friday (martayy's bday, happy bday for friday dude), i had invited Rosie, Max, Omar and Dav to my place for a sort of birthday celebration. Sadly and annoyingly, it was minus the lads, but that was because we're celebrating later on, looking in nerdy shops and shite like that. So the friday invited were people who probably werent gonna come to that birthday thing. Yeah.
Anyways, Max and Rosie rocked up, Max gave me a pink cowboy hat and a hip flask, and Rosie gave me a Mr Potato Head in the shape of a penis, then Max took me to my room and stalled me for a while, then when i came back into the lounge, my myspace friend Kell was sitting on my couch, as a surprise guest. First time id met her, and i was extremely lost for words. It was just so damn cool, and it was real nice of her to travel so far for something like that. Yep =]

Omar rocked up later on, gave me suspendors and a ninja turtle pez dispensor (sweeeeet) and then Dav rocked up casually, eating my food, and gave me an Astroboy dvd in which i was most satisfied.
We just played Nintendo 64, watched movies, pranced around Mitcham and laughed at me wearing suspendors. Good fun. Everyone left eventually, except Omar. He stayed the night, and we just experimented on Mario Kart stunts until we fell asleep to an episode of The Young Ones.

The next morning, Omar launched marshmellows off of his afro and caught them in his mouth (also filming it all) and yeah, we stuffed around until he left.

Saturday was spent doing nothing, i was too tired.

Sunday i had the family come over for seafood lunch and birthdayness, because Sunday was my actual birthday. I received a lot of money, a guitar chord 'bible', a flanger effects pedal, chocolate, ticket to Big Day Out 07, clothes, and from my folks i got money and a quality set of huge headphones. I'm happy to say that i'm veryyy satisfied. So far with my money ive bought a double-disced Nick Cave album called 'The Lyre Of Orpheus/Abattoir Blues' which is awesome, The Breakfast Club on dvd (favourite movie of ALL FREAKIN TIME) and Nausicaa of the Valley Of The Desert which is now a new favourite movie. A picture of it is also at the top of this post, and on my desktop :D:D

This week has just been spent lazing around pointlessly listening and watching and toying around with my new presents, and such things.
This has been a long post, jimmy wants bed.

Stay tuned,

p.s the blog title has nothing to do with the picture
