a new sound

Today i went and did some shopping at Koorong, i had to get some stuff and i saw the new album for a badn called Further Seems Forever and i listened to it on the way home and it sounds very different from the previous album called How To Start A Fire. I think themain difference is the singers, they have got a new singer who has given a different sound to the group but i do miss Jason Gleeson he has the best male voice i have ever heard. I wish he stayed with the band they are awesome. There new album is called Hide nothing it is a very good album one that will be in the cd player for a while.

summer season

Tonight was the beginning of the summer season of all the new stuff that would be replacing the old shows bcoz they have finished there seasons. It was good seeing That 70's Show back that is a funny show im glad that was back, i also found myself watching this new show on 10 at 7:30 called Summerland, from what i saw tonight it looks like a very cool show. It was sad to see that the kids parents died and there is this young boy that is always asking about where his parents have gone and how he wants to be with them, it must be the toughest situation especially when you are at a young age and you lose your parents. But its lookin like it could be a show that i would watch most of the time now that i've watched the first episode.

Howfully we will see some more as the summer season of tv continues.

i've hit a slump

For almost 1 year now i have been doing a program from the book Live Like A Jesus Freak and this program means that you will read the bible in 1 year, everyday you read a certain part in the book and by 1 year you should have read the whole thing. But recently probably in the last month or so that i have been doing nothing i have read it every night but sometimes its just something that has to be done, im not really reading what it says. I read it but i don't really think about what it is saying. That is something that i need to work on becasue i love reading the bible it can teach you so much that can help in your life and im just letting it go. Its just like im going through the motions every night before i go to sleep i have to read my bible for what ever part the book says so i do that but am i really reading the bible or am i just thinking that im reading the bible but really im not. This is something i need to work on and get back on track with both me and God, me and him had a nice chat last night and i hope that he will be able to help with this problem because i love reading my bible and recently i have fallen into the slump of just going through the motions.

If you wanted to know i got a msg from norths yesterday i was unsuccessful in making the jersey flegg squad which is fine i had a feeling that i wouldn't make it. So it looks like im going to play comp footy maybe with wenty next season and play A grade which is the highest level u can play, then go and try out for jersey flegg next year after a whole season of playing, the maybe i will be able to improve on a few things that like size.

what happened today

Today was pretty good, the pain in my mouth is slowly going away and the swelling is going down so i don't look like a monkey anymore. I'm getting sick of just eating jelly and yoghurt and ice cream all the time after a while its gets very boring and you just hate the taste because its all the same. Didn't do alot today went down to the video store to get some movies and ended up buying 3 DVD's: The Day After Tomorrow, School Of Rock and Spiderman 2, all very good movies. School of Rock is 1 of the greatest movies i have seen, i wish i went to a school like that it would be awesome, The Day After Tomorrow is always funny to see because you get to look at the funny things they did during the film like have wolves walking around after everything was frozen. Spiderman 2 is always gonna be an all time fav, its got everything that you want in a movie.

Well that is all i did today not alot but hopefully once the mouth is back to normal things might start to be normal again.

happy birthday mate

It was my best friend chris' 18th birthday yesterday and even though i had a fat mouth and was in alot of pain i made my way to his party. Even though i felt like crap i had an awesome time catching up with heaps of ppl that i went to primary school with and guys i had played soccer with when i was little. We have been friends since we were little so it was good to see him finally reach the 18 mark and so now we can go out to the pubs together, so that should be lots of fun.

Happy birthday chris

the fun begins

Well i'm now at home after gettin my 4 wisdom teeth taken out, i was only in the hospital for a couple of hours the surgery must of only taken 1-2 hours. Yesterday my mouth was so numb and i could not feel a thing which was good bcoz this morning i woke up in alot of pain, but with the help of pain killers and ice packs the pain has slowly decreased. Now its time to eat only soft foods like jelly and yoghurt so thats good i like eating them, i had scrabbled eggs for breakfast this morning which was good, i can eat food and i don't need anything put in a blender. Well the doc said i would b lilke this for the next 3-4 days so im glad i don't have school anymore i can just sit at home and watch tv.

The good thing is i oinly had 4 and they are all ggggoooonnnneeeee!!! so i don't have to do this ever again.

a long wait

It has been exactly 1 month since i tried out with the north sydney jersey flegg side and im starting to get a bit worried that i didn't make it into the squad. Which is alright now i thought about it and i know that i still have lots of time to play rep footy, it would just be nice to play again next year. You see the Karmichael Hunts and Benji Marshalls and Sonny Bill Williams playing in the NRL and they are all around the same age as me and are playing at the highest level you can get and im still stuck down the bottom.

Everyday i go out to check the mail to see if the letter from norths has come and everyday it has not been there, it sucks not knowing if you did or not. I reckon i played pretty good in the trial i made a few mistakes in defence that was because the other team always had an overlap on my side because my centre partner went off in the first 5 minutes with a cork and we had no reserves so i was always caught out by myself. But my attack was pretty good.

I don't know maybe i could go back and play club level for a year and try out next year, playing A Grade would be nice that would give me the chance to gain some more strength and skills ready for next years trials.

Well tomorrow is the big day, i have the joy of going under the knife and get all 4 wisdom teeth taken out. Mum is always telling me that it is a very painful procedure and my mouth will be very sore for the next couple of days but i will be ok i got some good pain killers and i get to eat ice cream and yoghurt so that is good. The bad part is i will miss out on my school friends christmas party and my best friend chris' 18th birthday party. I have known chris since i was a little ankle bitter and i am so angry that i am going to miss his big day just because i gotta get this stupid operation done.

oh well that is another sinkers story stay tuned till next time good bye

a new beginning

WOW , my first blog, its so exciting. I have been told that this is a good way of letting your feelings out instead of keeping them stuck in your head till you go crazy so I thought i might try it and see what happens. Well firstly I would just like to say it feels very weird to not be waking up at 730 every morning and going to school everyday, doing all the homework, being harassed by the teachers for not doing my homework in some ways it feels good to not be at school and but it also feels very strange because now it is time to move on to something new in my life and right now i don't think i know what im gonna do. The HSC was an experience that i would not like to have ever again, after the first week i just did not want to do anymore. I had both english papers foodtech and pdhpe and maths all in a 7 day period and i was both physically and mentally drained and i still had 1 exam left. But i did my last exam and on november 1 i was finished and it felt so good knowing that i didn't have to do another exam for a long time. I would like to thank B he helped so much during this period, not just in maths (by giving me the confidence to not just give up on every question but to just think about them and try and work them out the best i could and it helped heaps) but he also helped me focus on what was really important which was God, he always said that what ever happens its all part of his plan and i just have to follow it. That doesn't mean i didn't study, i think i did as much study in that 3 weeks leading up to the exams then i have ever done in my whole school career, we'll just have to wait and see how it all ends up. At first i was really disappointed when i finished because i knew in my mind that i would not be able to go and do what i really wanted to do which was go to the acpe and become a PE teacher. So now it looks like im going to TAFE next year which should be good and maybe after that something else might come up i don't know its all part of Gods plan and so far it looks pretty good. I used to think that after you finished year 12 it was party time and you didn't have to do anything except bludge around at home and do nothing till next year but i was sadly mistaken, now its find a job time and earning your own money to pay for things something that i wasn't really prepared for. I don't mind working i just have a low motivation to actually go out and find where the work is. Well maybe something will come up soon and we will move onto the next story in my life.

Till next time stay tuned to find out the next sinkers story
