If you go up to someone and ask them to tell you what they think the two most major emotions, 90%-95% of the people will say happiness and sadness. Or maybe joy. Or being excited.
Fear. No-one mentions it. I think fear is the most dangerous emotion of all. It overtakes your senses and screws up your thinking. It makes you go for the first option, not the safest option. It's like adrenaline in your body, but it's more constant than adrenaline. It's always there, just waiting to come out and fight for you.
I don't like fear very much. It takes away any rational, sane thought you have and turns it into something thats mushed up into tiny pieces.
It's such a strong emotion and possesses such power. It's power ties in with the fight or flight response. Whenever you're faced with something scary/not desirable, your brain decides to either 'fly or fight'. I like to think of if as fear overtaking your brain and making you make 1-second decisions, causing you not to think properly, which in turn causes you to freak out.

Day 103: January 30
Oh the glorious sounds of being up early. The birds squawking at anything that breathes, the dogs howling and barking at the birds and the human beings yelling at the dogs to shut up. Add in the sounds of cars, teachers lecturing, people gossiping, does slamming and the banging of locker doors and you've got a cacophony of noise. It's like your own personal, out-of-tune orchestra. Seriously, I think our generation should be called Gen N, on account of all the noise we make. Constant music, pen tapping, iPad/iPod/iPhone game sounds and the TV blaring constantly. I really like the noise; it's rather comforting. It's like you know there's always someone there to help. One day, just sit/stand/lie somewhere for 15 minutes and listen to all the noise. It's amazing what you'll hear.

Day 102: January 29
Oh em gee, it's the last day of holidays. I swear, time always goes 3x faster during the holidays than it does term time. Has there been a study on this yet? Obviously it's psychological, unless there is time travel and we're all participating. Ask anyone: during the holidays, the period before exams and sometimes the end of terms also seem to go way faster than the beginning/middle of the term, which seem to the slowest periods ever. Seriously. Okay, mark my words people: I WILL do a study like this someday. It might not be a good study, but it will be done. Mark my words.

Day 101: Janaury 28
A couple of day ago I was reading The Good Weekend, and I came across an article about sugar (or something. i'm not really sure what the articles main purpose was about). Anyway. There was a whole bunch of statistics about how much sugar was in certain foods. There are 54g of sugar in chocolate spreads, like nutella, and peanut butter has something like 52g (this is per 100g).
Now I hate it when parents/other people say "oh, that's got a heap of sugar, it's really unhealthy". I think, to someone my age/younger, numbers don't mean too much. Like we can hear that it's over half sugar, which is a lot and then maybe we wont eat it for a couple of days and then we're like, "yeah, whatever". I think, if you want to show someone something, you have to actively show them. Like take a packet that can fit up to 100g. Fill it up with 54g of sugar and show that to the child.
It's like when parents warn us about the affects/effects sugar/fat can have on us. Yes, we know it's bad/unhealthy/makes us fat, but it doesn't stop us from eating. I don't think people realise how bad it is until it has happened to them. They (me included), go "oh, it'll never happen to me", the same thing you say when you hear about a car crash or something.
So I think my point is, that parents, show, don't tell and other people, eg kids, just think about effects/affects something can have on you, whether on not you think it's going to happen. Because it might.

Day 100: January 27
People fetch a pen, mark your calendars.
Take out your phones and make a note on today's date.
On this day, the 27th of January 2013, I Lauren, have managed to maintain this blog, 365lists1213.blogspot.com.au, for exactly 100 days.
My ultimate goal is 366, hence the name of the blog, but we'll see how it goes.
Each day, I have written a blog entry, with the list of things corresponding to the number of days. Each list has been different, and wherever possible, has been written on the appropriate day. Where uploading wasn't possible on that day, the list was written out and then put on the blog as soon as possible.
F A M E
Young girls and young boys often want to be famous. It's always a dream to be something where people will know your name, something where people will want to take your picture. As you grow up, the want to be famous either grows or subsides, depending on your career choice.
Many people want to be singers, actors, TV personalities or maybe an author.
Others want a more subtle career - teacher, tailor, soldier, sailor.
I'm at a crossroads. Is fame and fortune really everything it's made out to be, or does it just involve overrated, underpaid jobs?
P R O S
- You get free things - clothes, shoes, make-up, food, drinks, little cutesy-bobsy toys and other trinkets that may or may not be useful. In the wise words of Billy Mack from Love Actually, "Hiya kids. Here is an important message from your Uncle Bill. Don't buy drugs. Become a pop star and they give you them for free!"
- Awards. Who does't want the bragging rights to an annoying uncle/great-aunt/relative that didn't think you could do it? When they arrive, make sure to bring up the award in your conversation or just casually wander around the house with the award in your hands, until they ask what it is.
- Stylists, designers, helpers. Pretty much people that do what you want them to do when they do it. They hand-design your clothes, style them on you, feed you food and if you happen to eat the wrong food, there's always a yoga professional and personal trainer on board.
- High profile friends. This would be amazing. Who doesn't want to just casually slip into the conversation that Tim Burton and Helena Bonham-Carter are coming for dinner or that you're checking out kitchens with Johnny Depp. You know, just the usual.

In the wise words of Billy Mack from Love Actually, "Hiya kids. Here is an important message from your Uncle Bill. Don't buy drugs. Become a pop star and they give you them for free!"
- Awards. Who does't want the bragging rights to an annoying uncle/great-aunt/relative that didn't think you could do it? When they arrive, make sure to bring up the award in your conversation or just casually wander around the house with the award in your hands, until they ask what it is.
- Stylists, designers, helpers. Pretty much people that do what you want them to do when they do it. They hand-design your clothes, style them on you, feed you food and if you happen to eat the wrong food, there's always a yoga professional and personal trainer on board.
- High profile friends. This would be amazing. Who doesn't want to just casually slip into the conversation that Tim Burton and Helena Bonham-Carter are coming for dinner or that you're checking out kitchens with Johnny Depp. You know, just the usual.
- People recognising you. Everywhere you go, people ask for photos, a signature, something. This is a great perk for people who love sucking up to other people and also people who love attention

-Privacy. Sorry, what privacy? When you're famous, I really think privacy is moot. There are paparazzi everywhere and you don't know who to trust anymore. Does that person just want to be your friend because you're famous or do they just genuinely like you?
-Everything is documented. If you do something good, like get an award, it's like "yeah, great, well done, next". On the other hand, if nude photos of you are leaked, shit goes down. Rumors fly, people get into trouble and you're infamous.
- Judging. "The strangest part about being famous is that you don't get to give first impressions anymore. Everyone already has an impression of you before you meet them." - Kristen Stewart. I love this quote for two reasons. One, because it is absolutely and 100% true. Normally, when you meet someone for the first time, you act in a certain way, you're super polite and you're just generally nice. When you're famous, people already think they know you. They base what they think you're like on a character you've played or something the papers have said about you. Two, I think it's quite fitting that out of everyone, Kristen Stewart has said this. Everyone has their own opinions on her, and most of them are negative. They don't like her for some reason; maybe they think she's Bella, or they think she doesn't smile. I really like her and I don't understand why people judge and hate her so much. So what if she didn't smile in her role? Maybe it didn't require smiling? Maybe she didn't feel like it? Just leave it be.
So that's it. That just about sums up my feelings towards fame. I mean if you think you're destined to be famous, go for your life. At this point in my life, I don't think I'm heading towards stardom. Maybe I'll change my mind in the future, but I for now, I think that while being famous has it's perks, I don't think I could deal with people invading my privacy. I have so much respect for celebrities because they have to deal with us, the general public, as well as the media and the paparazzi. People are so nosey these days and I think they should get their damn nose out of other people's business.

Friday 25 January 2013
Day 98: January 25
I'm sick of it. Sick of the constant pain, the medicine and the doctors visits.
I'm sick of it stopping me from doing sport. I can't shop for longer than 20 minutes without pain.
I hate it when the doctors say "it'll all be fine". Bitch no.
When people feel sorry for me. Don't give me that pitying look. I manage.
I'm sick of the constant "are you okays?" How am I meant to answer that anyway? "oh, I'm totally fine, except for the painful searing". Yep, I thought so.
I'm sick of the doctors saying stuff that isn't. Aren't they meant to be the 'experts?'
I hate using up my parents money - money that is so much more useful someone where. They say "it can't be helped". But it can. If it can just be fixed.
Is it penance for something. How long? Isn't three years long enough?
"Do you want to go walking?" But I can't, not for long anyway.
No slip-slops for you. Not supportive enough. Runners for the rest of your life.
"Also, don't complain, some people have it much worse than you".
Okay fine. When you compare someone who has cancer, or AIDS, to me, then yes of course, they've got the worse one.
But just don't compare us. Don't say "look at that person, she can't walk".
I can see that she can't walk.
But if you go around comparing one sickness/disease/injury to another, something is always worse than what you have.
And as much as I hate to say this, it brings me down. It upsets me. I hate that I can't participate, can't do anything without pain.
My friends are the greatest. They help (sometimes), and one wanted to talk, but I said "I'd just cry". I did.
It's hard on them too.
And my family. I'm grumpy about it, which I just reflect at them.
They're in the firing line.
I hurt them with words, blame them.
It's not their fault. But it's not mine either.
It just happened.
So much money is spent on me, and as much as it can be justified, I have to justify it to myself. My parents don't say anything, but I know that I cost a lot.
I feel as if I'm the most expensive daughter - injury, glasses, lenses, face stuff etc.
I have good days and bad days, just like everyone. Mine are gauged in a slightly different manner.
Everyone has different opinions on it.
Do this
Do that
Go to this doctor
Actually, this one is better
Crutches
No crutches
All I want to do is yell at them. Aren't they meant to know? They are educated in this area and do you know how scary it is when they don't really know whats going on?
You probably don't.
But let me just say, it's a hell of a scary situation to be in.
You trust them and then they're like "no, sorry, we don't understand". Well, bitch, of you don't understand, then how am I, not-a-doctor-Lauren, meant to know what's happening?
Mmh, exactly.
So when someone asks "how I'm feeling" or "how my ankle is", I will link them to this page.

I'm sick of the constant "are you okays?" How am I meant to answer that anyway? "oh, I'm totally fine, except for the painful searing". Yep, I thought so.
I'm sick of the doctors saying stuff that isn't. Aren't they meant to be the 'experts?'
I hate using up my parents money - money that is so much more useful someone where. They say "it can't be helped". But it can. If it can just be fixed.
Is it penance for something. How long? Isn't three years long enough?
"Do you want to go walking?" But I can't, not for long anyway.
No slip-slops for you. Not supportive enough. Runners for the rest of your life.
"Also, don't complain, some people have it much worse than you".
Okay fine. When you compare someone who has cancer, or AIDS, to me, then yes of course, they've got the worse one.
But just don't compare us. Don't say "look at that person, she can't walk".
I can see that she can't walk.
But if you go around comparing one sickness/disease/injury to another, something is always worse than what you have.
And as much as I hate to say this, it brings me down. It upsets me. I hate that I can't participate, can't do anything without pain.
My friends are the greatest. They help (sometimes), and one wanted to talk, but I said "I'd just cry". I did.
It's hard on them too.
And my family. I'm grumpy about it, which I just reflect at them.
They're in the firing line.
I hurt them with words, blame them.
It's not their fault. But it's not mine either.
It just happened.
So much money is spent on me, and as much as it can be justified, I have to justify it to myself. My parents don't say anything, but I know that I cost a lot.
I feel as if I'm the most expensive daughter - injury, glasses, lenses, face stuff etc.
I have good days and bad days, just like everyone. Mine are gauged in a slightly different manner.
Everyone has different opinions on it.
Do this
Do that
Go to this doctor
Actually, this one is better
Crutches
No crutches
All I want to do is yell at them. Aren't they meant to know? They are educated in this area and do you know how scary it is when they don't really know whats going on?
You probably don't.
But let me just say, it's a hell of a scary situation to be in.
You trust them and then they're like "no, sorry, we don't understand". Well, bitch, of you don't understand, then how am I, not-a-doctor-Lauren, meant to know what's happening?
Mmh, exactly.
So when someone asks "how I'm feeling" or "how my ankle is", I will link them to this page.

Day 97: January 24
I have finally decided what I want to do with my life.
Like, job wise.
Sort of.
Kinda.
Not really.
Okay, not at all.
But I know what kind of job I want.
I want to do something worthwhile. Something that helps. And yes, I realise that my dream sounds like a 12-year olds, "omg, I want to help the world", but so be it. I will prove you all wrong. It will be fun.
Today, as part of my 15th birthday present, I went to a Keeper for a day at Healesville Sanctuary. This is what opened my eyes, this is what set my sights. The main idea of the program was the learn about the endangered species of Victoria and conservation.
They focused mainly on the Helmeted Honeyeater and the Mountain Pygmy Possum.
The helmeted honeyeater is a black and yellow bird only found in Victoria (AUS). There were 50 birds left in the wild, but since then, breeding programs have seen more birds released. They are the Victorian faunal emblem and live in areas that are about 5km by 2km. $13,000 are spent on each honeyeater, per year, and they only have a 40% survival rate, due them not being conditioned to hiding and then being preyed on by large birds of prey.
Prior to 1966, the mountain pygmy possum was thought to be extinct. In 2006, the last remaining possums were taken from Mt. Bulla and put into a program at Healesville Sanctuary. Mountain pygmy possums live up in alpine regions and their homes have been taken away because of the ski resorts plonked on top of them. For 7 months of the year, pygmy possums hibernate under 1m of snow. As of now, there are 89 of these possums at the.
I could go on and on about the animals were learnt about and what-not, but I wont. (But we did learn about the tassie devils, who are also dwindling in numbers, due to a facial tumour they're getting. It's contagious).
The lady who took us, Megan, kept telling us about the conservation side of everything and the mindset needed. That's when I decided I need to actually do something. I need to do something that helps someone, whether it's an animal, a vegetable, a mineral or a person. I want to make a difference in the world, help someone realise their dreams, help them achieve it.

Day 96: January 23
Classes for 2013.
This has been a hug discussion point everytime I see one of my friends. Who will we be with? Our teachers? Will we be split up? Ecetera, ecetera.
Finally, our curiosity has ceased. We have found out our teachers and some of the people in our various classes, thanks to the power of technology.
Thanks internet.
What I don't understand is when teachers split friends up. Okay, I know they want us to make friends, but do they really think that by the time we've been at the school for three years, we'll make new friends? Maybe we'll talk to new people and be friendly with them, but I really don't think we'll make new friends that we see out of school. In grade 7 and even 8, it's perfectly fine to mix us up, but I think by the tim we reach year 10, they should just put us with our friends. It's not like we'll be with them every minute of everyday and we will interact with the others in our class.
I'm also pretty sure there's four types of classes:
1. Good teachers, bad people. This consists of mostly good teachers and maybe one or two friends (or none at all). The rest of the people are annoying bitches that you don't like and you shouldn't be forced to be around them.
2. Bad teacher, good people. This has quite good people, but shit teachers. ie. you'll have heaps of laughs, but not too much learning. Most people like this one.
3. Good teacher, good people. This is quite rare. Good teachers and good people. Quite an unusual combination, but it usually ends up that the shit people/badly behaved kids get the shit teachers.
4. Bad teachers, bad people. This is the worst, but quite rare. You get a shit group of people, as well as rude and irritating teachers. ie. being a loner with people yelling at you the whole year. Joyous.
Currently, I'm a mixture of 1 and 3. The teachers that I know, I'm happy with. I'm just hoping the other teachers are good too. Knowing my luck, they'll be absolute shit. Good optimism, Lauren. I have two of my best friends with me, and besides that, I don't know too many others.

Day 95: January 22
Is our life planned or do things just happen?
If we're baking a cake, it is already planned that we're going to burn ourselves or is it just something that's going to happen?
If things are planned, how far in advance are they planned?
Am I going to get married, or stay single?
Will I go through a divorce?
What will I get on my ENTER/ATAR score?
Is my subconscious the planner?
Is there a God who maybe plans it?*
If you make a plan, does someone, somewhere, know if you'll go through with it, or will it just happen, or not happen?
If I got to choose, I would like things not to be planned. Don't get me wrong, I love planning with a passion, but I just think for something as big as 'life', plans should be spontaneous. If your burn yourself, so be it. It hurts like a bitch, but you'll get over it.
But, if it is planned, does God/whoever/subconscious make sure everyone has a balance of good and bad things in their life? Like, you allocate ten good things to this person and maybe five bad things. For every two good things that happen, something bad with happen.
Also, who decides on the degree that the bad and/or good things happen? Because something as little as getting a detention can happen, but you could also end up breaking your leg. Maybe you'll go overseas, but you could also get an award.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If I have spelling mistakes/grammar issues, and I know there is many, please don't tell me about it. If there's a massive, glaring mistake, don't tell me about that either. Same goes with a small mistakes. I don't wanna hear. I'm sure your writing isn't perfect and I try as much as I can to make as few mistakes as possible. (As much as you may think that I go around spelling things incorrectly on purpose, I actually don't).
I do apologise for my paragraphing, or lack thereof. I am really bad with deciding when to break the paragraph, so it's either done really randomly, or not at all.

Fast Fact: My grandpa was a doctor (GP).
Now I'm going to mess around with the editing settings to figure out how to put a background on.
If we're baking a cake, it is already planned that we're going to burn ourselves or is it just something that's going to happen?
If things are planned, how far in advance are they planned?
Am I going to get married, or stay single?
Will I go through a divorce?
What will I get on my ENTER/ATAR score?
Is my subconscious the planner?
Is there a God who maybe plans it?*
If you make a plan, does someone, somewhere, know if you'll go through with it, or will it just happen, or not happen?
If I got to choose, I would like things not to be planned. Don't get me wrong, I love planning with a passion, but I just think for something as big as 'life', plans should be spontaneous. If your burn yourself, so be it. It hurts like a bitch, but you'll get over it.
But, if it is planned, does God/whoever/subconscious make sure everyone has a balance of good and bad things in their life? Like, you allocate ten good things to this person and maybe five bad things. For every two good things that happen, something bad with happen.
Also, who decides on the degree that the bad and/or good things happen? Because something as little as getting a detention can happen, but you could also end up breaking your leg. Maybe you'll go overseas, but you could also get an award.

Day 94: January 21
P S Y C H (O L O G Y) + A LITTLE BIT ON PSYCHIATRY
So when you type 'Psychiatry and Psychology' into google, lots of hard-to-read shit comes up. Too many big words, for which I need a dictionary to explain, but then the dictionary uses big words etc. I know there's a difference and one you have a medical degree/can give out medication, but I always forget which is which. But, I remembered, so here is a definition for both of them, in relatively easy terms.
PSYCHIATRY: This is dedicated to the study, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mental disorders. A psychiatrist has a proper medical degree, which involves six years of general medicine and then further study to look at mental disorders and emotions.
PSYCHOLOGY: This branch of science studies human behaviour, emotions and (sometimes) mental disorders. A psychologist does not have a medical degree, although will have a verification document of some sort (maybe a diploma).
This one-sided chat is going to be about psychology, but I had to define that so a) I wouldn't get mixed up, and b) people reading this (HO HO), know (maybe) what I'm rambling on about.
Shrink Head-Shrinker Guru Therapist Couch Doctor Inquisitor
These are all names for a psychologist. Now I've been to my fair share of shrinks over the years. (I used to have terrible temper tantrums, so my mom took me to a psychologist). My first one was when I was seven, just before I left to come here. I remember she was nice and I used to play with her sandbox thingy and she had a pink pad of paper she wrote her notes on. I remember leaving her. She gave me a scroll of her pink paper, with something on it, maybe a picture, I don't remember. In the past 8 years, I think I've been to maybe 2-3 shrinks. All female, funnily enough.
My opinion might've been different when I was younger, but now I know one thing. Psychology is just another way to mess people around. That's how I look at it. I mean, it's a person to talk to and get opinions from, but how much can they really help? I just feel like they're brainwashing you. Like they're inventing a different you in their mind, a you that doesn't have the disorder/disability/whatever it is. They want you to become that person and to become that person, you have to take away or change certain aspects of your life. It's like they're saying "Stop all that business. Don't think. Don't do that. Do this instead. Substitute this for this."
They're human beings, just like us. They have feelings and problems, just like us. They're just the same, except for their title. But, I do wish, in some aspects, that I was like one [a psychologist]. I wish I could read people the way I read a book. Of course, I wouldn't want to get into their heads and tell them what to do, but I'd just like to read a person and make an analyst in my own mind. I think each person is a psychologist to themselves. They have power over their thought, emotions and behaviours. They can tell themselves what to do and what not to do. They can psych themselves up for something as easily as they psych themselves out of something.
But you know what? If someone can so easily exert power over themselves and psych themselves out of something, imagine what other people have the power of doing, even groups of people. It's like at a football match and you're on one side and you're telling yourself to run to the other goal. But there are twenty other people on the team, telling you that you're not good enough, you can't do it, you'll never make it. This is what a psychologist is like, except some might say they're building you up, not down. But again, what I think they're doing is just telling you to change, in essence, they want you to be a different person, they're breaking down a person that once was to make a new person that is.
That is my opinion on psychology. It's definitely not set in stone and I think some of my belief (a very small amount) stems from Brennan and Booth's hate of it (Bones). I could change my mind at any moment on this matter and go from hating it to loving it. Quite unlikely, but it could happen. I believe that for some people, psychology is the only way. Some people believe that psychology is the only way. I apologise if some of this doesn't make sense - I just write what comes to my head. I would love to hear people's opinions of my opinion and what they think.

Day 93: January 20
Many things to discuss today:
I have officially lived in Australia for 8 years. This time eight years ago, I was actually probably flying, but this is official enough. If you've just tuned in, I am originally from South Africa and came here when I was 7. I have also been here, in Australia, for longer than I lived in South Africa, which was my birth country. Weird stuff.
Yesterday, I saw Jennifer Hawkins. For the people who don't know who she is, she is an Australian-born international model. Yesterday, as my mom and I were strolling along the streets of Sydney, we came across the auditions for Australia's Next Top Model. I love the auditions and might even make an appearance to watch at the Melbourne ones. Anyway. I was walking past, and then Jen is right there!! Oh my god. Also, Alex Perry. BUT OMG, I SAW JENNIFER HAWKINS. She seems like one of those people, like Miranda Kerr, who is effortlessly flawless in appearance as well as personality. Exciting stuff.
I am not a virgin anymore. Not a Max Brenner virgin anymore. Just to make this clear, I have NOT had sex, but for the first time, I went to Max Brenner. I went for breakfast and had the belgium waffles with strawberries, chocolate, ice-cream (vanilla) and banana. I also had a white hot chocolate with waffle balls. Just one thing: how can something as superficial as chocolate make someone so happy?
OMG GUYS THANK YOU THANK YOU. THANKS TO THE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY LOOK AT THIS BLOG, I HAVE HAD 708 PAGEVIEWS. I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE THIS MANY PAGEVIEWS, SINCE I'VE ONLY HAD THIS BLOG FOR A SHORT TIME. I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO COMES ON HERE, WHETHER YOU'VE SEEN ONE WORD, ONE ENTRY, THREE ENTRIES, OR YOU REGULARLY VISIT. I LOVE YOU ALL <3 I WOULD SERIOUSLY SEND A THANK-YOU TO PEOPLE SEPARATELY, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, IT DOESN'T SAY WHO THE PEOPLE ARE. BUT, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN, I WILL SEND YOU A PERSONALISED THANK-YOU.

Day 91: January 18
After-Smells. So these are like after tastes, except you smell it. When someone whooshes past you, you can smell them. Which sounds totally creepy, but you can. When that person is like a couple of steps in front of you, they leave a sort of smell. It's like when you've eaten a piece of liquorice and you swallow it and then you have that taste in your mouth for a bit. That's what an after-smell is, except it's much briefer and not actually a real thing.

Day 90: January 17
I have been on the stairs that led me down to Bondi Beach. I have walked on the sand at Bondi Beach. I have swum at Bondi Beach.
All the hot girls and guys were in the water with their tanned skin and bikini-ready bodies and I was, just, well there. I was in my black tankini and pale, but not Irish pale skin. But, zero cares were with me. The water was amazing, and oh my god, there were actually waves (take note melbourne). The waves were brilliant and everytime one came close, you chose to swim with it - escentially going body boarding - or go against it and just get dumped. Both were fun and more often than not I just liked standing there to get hit by the waves. Fun times! There were people everywhere and everytime you moved, you had to play a game of 'avoid the humans'. Rather enjoyable, especially when you got hit in the face with someones foot. The land wasn't as bad, except for the occasional game of 'dodge the flying sand and water droplets as small children come rushing by'. Also, sand. I normally hate sand because it gets EVERYWHERE, but this sand is an exception. It still gets everywhere, but I like it. Myabe because it's white, rather than the brown of Melbourne sand. #nohate. Or maybe just because it's from Bondi. I also saw Maxi from Bondi Rescue. Whoooop! (If it wasn't him' it was one of the main people, because I recognised him. I have this weird recognition with people's faces). Some people have seriously pretty bathers and others, well, let me just say they need to get their eyes checkd. That is all, and once again, let me say I swam at Bondi.
Ninety things I can see from where I'm sitting at Bondi Beach:
1. Seagulls
2. Beach hire Umbrella
3. An octopus towel
4. Plastic water bottle

Day 89: January 16
I have a problem with denim skirts. I think they should be banished forever and ever. For one, they're not even pretty. Secondly, they come in awkward lengths - either long or super short. Both make them impractical and inconvenient to wear. Also, they're icky and not good for any sort of weather. They're just really awkward and I don't like the person that made them.

Day 88: January 15
AIRPLANES + FLYING + FOOD + MAPS + ALSO AIRPORTS + PILOTS
I love aeroplanes. Not exactly the exact aeroplane, I just love being in them. I love sitting in them and looking down - everything is spread out underneath you like a map. It's like at one stage - when you're on the ground, - you're part of the big bad world, but once you're up in the air, it's like you leave it all behind. When you're in the plane, it feels as if you're floating, looking at the world below you.
Also, clouds. Clouds are amazing, especially if you're sitting on, above, below (in an aeroplane) or in them. I love it when you're cruising along and then suddnely, you view is blocked by thick fog. I also like siting there and you're just surrounded by them. They're so beautiful. It make me feel as if I'm sitting on white-fluffiness.
I also have this thing for aeroplane food. I love it. Not for taste, although it is good, I kind of like it's compact-ness and it's all just so cute.
I love love love airports. I love them just because there is ALWAYS something going on there - whether it's 1am or 1pm. Airports can also be very happy places. Obviously, there's the [sad] departures too, but if you come back in a couple of months, those [sad] departures are happy arrivals. Also, my love of airports tie in with my favourite quote. The quote - from Love Actually is said by High Grant, or the prime minister, during the starting sequence of the film. He states that love actually is all around. You can find it in old friends, good friends, mothers & daughters, fathers & sons. The beginning of the quote goes like this, "Whenever I get gloomy about the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport". It's so true. Arrival gates, whether at Heathrow or Melbourne, or anywhere in the world, are really happy places. Whether you haven't seen the person for 1 week or 3 months, it's always exciting to see them.
Aeroplanes are really weird. They're like giant mechanical winged birds, expect that aeroplane wings don't flap.
Besides that fact that I'm not allowed*, I really wouldn't like to be a pilot. Like, in theory, it would be aweosme, but I think I might be a bit scared to have that kind of pressure on me. Actually, on second thoughts, if I learnt to deal with the pressure, I would love to be a pilot. *Although, I'm not allowed to be a pilot, because pilots have to have 20/20 vision and this is something I do not possess.
Last thing: We were out for lunch on our first day in Sydney and the place we went to was all set up for a wedding. After a few hours of us being there, people started to arrive. We all took bets on who we thought the groom was. I was right :) Her dress was amazing and their wedding car was a kombi!!

I love aeroplanes. Not exactly the exact aeroplane, I just love being in them. I love sitting in them and looking down - everything is spread out underneath you like a map. It's like at one stage - when you're on the ground, - you're part of the big bad world, but once you're up in the air, it's like you leave it all behind. When you're in the plane, it feels as if you're floating, looking at the world below you.
Also, clouds. Clouds are amazing, especially if you're sitting on, above, below (in an aeroplane) or in them. I love it when you're cruising along and then suddnely, you view is blocked by thick fog. I also like siting there and you're just surrounded by them. They're so beautiful. It make me feel as if I'm sitting on white-fluffiness.
I also have this thing for aeroplane food. I love it. Not for taste, although it is good, I kind of like it's compact-ness and it's all just so cute.
I love love love airports. I love them just because there is ALWAYS something going on there - whether it's 1am or 1pm. Airports can also be very happy places. Obviously, there's the [sad] departures too, but if you come back in a couple of months, those [sad] departures are happy arrivals. Also, my love of airports tie in with my favourite quote. The quote - from Love Actually is said by High Grant, or the prime minister, during the starting sequence of the film. He states that love actually is all around. You can find it in old friends, good friends, mothers & daughters, fathers & sons. The beginning of the quote goes like this, "Whenever I get gloomy about the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport". It's so true. Arrival gates, whether at Heathrow or Melbourne, or anywhere in the world, are really happy places. Whether you haven't seen the person for 1 week or 3 months, it's always exciting to see them.
Aeroplanes are really weird. They're like giant mechanical winged birds, expect that aeroplane wings don't flap.
Besides that fact that I'm not allowed*, I really wouldn't like to be a pilot. Like, in theory, it would be aweosme, but I think I might be a bit scared to have that kind of pressure on me. Actually, on second thoughts, if I learnt to deal with the pressure, I would love to be a pilot. *Although, I'm not allowed to be a pilot, because pilots have to have 20/20 vision and this is something I do not possess.
Last thing: We were out for lunch on our first day in Sydney and the place we went to was all set up for a wedding. After a few hours of us being there, people started to arrive. We all took bets on who we thought the groom was. I was right :) Her dress was amazing and their wedding car was a kombi!!

Day 87: January 14
- Tomorrow I am going to Sydney for 5 days. This means I won't be able to do my blog, as there is no internet in the place I'm staying. *crying face*. I will, however, write my lists on paper and then transfer them onto this blog when I get home. This way, the lists will be done on the appropriate days. I will try do tomorrows, although, I am leaving very early in the morning to catch the flight. See you guys in 5 days (: -
So last night, when I was trying to fall asleep, of course, my thoughts were going 100miles an hour (or kilometres/ers, whichever you prefer. I don't care). I was thinking that if I got free reign over my oral topic, what would I pick? I thought, maybe body image? I only got a little bit done in my head and here it is:
Body Image.
Being teenagers we suffer a lot from negative body image. Whether we're guys, girls, straight, bi, lesbian, pansexual, white, black, asian, Jewish, atheist, Muslim, Christian, tall, short, fat, skinny, someone, somewhere has said something bad about our bodies. Of course, there's also positive body image. People complimenting you on something - your eyes, hair, your butt, your curves, your cheekbones, your hands. Maybe they like your flat stomach. I don't know. They like something though. So in your head, you have two sides - positive and negative. Just like a battery. One side is yelling at you because they don't like something and the other side is complimenting another thing. This is the real problem. There are so many people, with so many opposing options, it's impossible to choose which to follow. It's quite easy to say "Oh, I'm going to follow my opinions and no-one elses", but this is easier said than done. It's like going to the shops and seeing a pair of shorts that you like. You try them on, and they're good, but not perfect. You try on the next pair, which is too loose, but you like the design more than the first one. See, there's so much to choose from, but they all differ slightly. Here's something I found on the internet (creds to Tumblr) about people's opinions of body image:
That is all.

- Doctors: Anorexia is an epidemic, people need to eat.
- Doctors: Obesity is an epidemic, people eat too much.
- Society: People have unhealthy body images, accept your body the way it is!
- Society: People should be more concerend about their health, exercise & eat right!
- Media: Celebrities are way too skinny, they are setting a bad example for young girls.
- Media: This singer gained 20 pounds, she must be really unhappy.
- People: Being too skinny is gross, real women have curves.
- People: Eww, fat rolls.
- Friends: You're so pretty, you're not fat.
- Friends: Eww I'm so gross, I need to lose weight.
- Family: Don't starve yourself, eat. It's not that hard.
- Family: You ate all of this for breakfast? What is wrong with you?
