i usually spend my sundays sitting at home doing homework or dancing around to crazy greek music but suprisingly yesterday i found myself with 2 of my greek school friends, sitting in a large building ,with "free the pathenon marbles" written on it,half asleep. As a VCE student for VSL's modern greek i was made to go to a talk about our exams for NEXT YEAR with my greek school class. Effie, effie and i caught the train to lonsdale st so listen to 3 people talk to a group of unintrested greek students for 2 hours yesterday ... so im going to tell you about it O_O :D

i didnt know melbourne central was on lonsdale street, so when we got off the train and asked the person working in the cafe for directions to lonsdale street he stared at us as if we were something unusual. We, of course, were only familiar with the greek part of lonsdale street, the part that has greek music blaring from its stores, the best giros in melb and just as good cakes next door, and the big white building that has "free the pathenon marbles" on it. After the talk was over we went to stale ...stal ....damn forgot what its called to get giros, and by the time we were half way through our lamb and chicken giros we were STUFFED. Our teacher dragged us to the cake shop next door and made fed us cakes until we thought we would spew and then we circled melbourne central 'till we decided to catch the train back home. We waited at caufield station for one of the effie's bf to meet her, which took an hour because there were people protesting on the tracks. HONESTLY, who protests on train tracks?? by the time i got home it was 5, and i was so tired and full that i went to sleep.

i think im going to spend these holidays either preparing for my 16th, formal shopping or watching the entire season of bones ....again O_O
'till next time...TOODLES!

thes na kanoume sxesi? NO!

*waves*

sometimes i totally forget i have a lj and today i was sitting here in my warm little seat thinking i havent spoken to char in ages and then POP! i remembered my lj which is quite amusing actually :p

so whats new? well absolutely nothing :| im still walking around weirdly because of my foot and it is still bandaged ... because of this i cant go anywhere much and i stay home and watch soccer repeats that my mum tapes, even though i watch most of the matches live, lol.
all i can really say is ... well ... GO THE SOCCEROOS! because even though they are ranked 44th in the world, and have only been in the world cup twice (not with the same players lol) they're still in and they kick butt :D
its quite funny watching my mum curse and scream at the tv when the socceroos are winning, im the only one supporting them in my household, and when they win i get to rub it in. Mum goes that its all a fluke and they'll get out of the world cup next match and they wont win another match for the rest of thier lives and i reply that the greeks were worse ranked in the euro and they won it :D ... and then lost to australia lmao.

ok enough world cup talk, and since thats all i seem to be doing lately (i blame the foot *shakes fist* ) i will leave my lj alone and hope that they beat italy on tuesday morning :DDDDDD

TATA!
OH, and as for the weird title its a greek song meaning you wanna start a relationship? and i dont, well not with him anyway :p

oh nooooes!

wednesday is officially bad luck day. i dont know where to begin ...

my mum took x rays of her arm and few days ago she picked them up from the doctors. Yesterday morning my cousin called and told her that she must go see the doctors who took her xrays because its urgent, she came home announcing that she is going to need a HUGE ASS NEEDLE injected into her arm/ armpit area because somethings MEGA WRONG. by the time she told us this i was home with a REAL SCREWED UP FOOT. we were in p.e and our american student teacher was teaching us how to play "american football". so he showed us techniques and it was all good until it was tackling time. WE WERNT MEANT TO TACKLE, we were meant to HUG, but what does my friend do? she wanted to DEMONSTRATE. ... she didnt hug tackle ... she TACKLED like most rugby players do. So before i knew it i was on the ground, her arms wrapped around me and groaning in pain because my left foot caned when i tried moving it. Chas tried getting me up but i yelled at him (being the idiot that i am) and then yelled some more when my actual teacher tried to hep me. Then i went crazy, people got scared because they didnt know whether i was laughing or crying ...to tell you the truth i dont know either! so the took me to sick bay, me muttering every swear word from every language i knew, and tried getting in contact with my parents to take me home. Several teachers walked in to talk to me and by then i was crying of laughter and they were like O_o? getting me up and going was funny, the crutches were waaay to big so i kept falling back onto the bed .. we settled for a WHEELCHAIR that had a FLAT TYRE to get me to the car. my p.e teacher pushed me to the car and whe i got in it, he hopped onto the wheelchair and got a kids help taking him back inside... it was funny to watch lol.

all i know is that i havent sprained an ankle and i havent broken anything, otherwise id be in more pain. my cousin is coming tonight to help me out and hopefully i'll have proper fitting crutches by then :D

my teacher says we dont need 2 legs, but me hopping everywhere proves that we do.

p.s - my friend spewed when we were going to film our version of romeo and juliet (boganized) :O so that adds to the list of badass wednesday :|

WE ARE ONE...BUT WE ARE MAAAAAAAAAANNYYYYYYYYYYY!

hello little passionfruit seeds!

i was meant to post my zoo experience on thursady but as you can see ... i didnt.
my stupid teacher says its better to go in June, since we're not organised ... um what? ok lets see ... you give us the freakin notice 3 or 4 days before we are meant to go, expect us to pay something like 25 bucks and then tell US we're not ORGANISED?! well...poo to you teacher, now we have to go in june, and thats a month away. yes teacher, take a month to get us organised *ahem*
ok, now that thats out of the way i'll tell you about my wonderful experience with the "leaders" Wed. afterschool the peer support leaders, SRC leaders and school captains of all kind gathered for a talk about leadership that started a 4 and finished a 6. it was the most BORINGEST THING EVER. half of us were drifting off when our guest speaker, mr principal "i climbed a mountain and went to hawaii ..leadership is great" ... dont even know his name was talking. To top it off they showed us a 2 minute video about geese O_O ...thanks teachers, tommorow we will come to school going "HONK HONK!" to show our appreciation. the best part of the whole thing was the red cordial. really.

on tuesday im going to crosscountry to run 3 km and collape ... and if i dont then, i will at greek dancing. cypriot dances are so much harder than the mainland greek ones.

i'll try to update soon :)

OMG UPDATE!

2006-05-01T08:42:40Z

hello journal and journal readers :p
i havent updated in a loooong time so here goes ...

im not sure if i told you all about my new class. 10a... no longer the greek/wog filled class a usually is, all the guys that once were in my class are now in 10e. last year it bugged me but now its ok. i met two really cool guys in 10a, they just came this year but they're really great.

emil is philipino, and he's kind of scary... epecially when he dances. he does hip thrusts that only strippers do and watches bring it on and copys the moves ... its hilarious! our class is studying romeo and juliet and he reminds me of mercucio in the movie...the scene where he is dancing in a skirt and short top decribes his crazy side perfectly lmao.

deckster is from zimbabwe (yes i know i didnt spell that correctly) and is a really relaxed cool type. he treats everyone fairly and he's mega smart O_O hehe mega is a greek tv channel :p

on saturday i went to tamara's house for a bonfire. Tim tam is one of my besties btw LOL. i had never been to a bonfire before so i didnt know what the hell she was on about... turns out it's ... a FIRE! we toasted marshmellows, ate a whole lot, went hypo on coke and ran away from her horny dog. there were about 13 people there. me, tim tam, samantha, deanna, bianca, alex, daniel, jess, chas, nick, emil, deckster, kylie and keith ..ok thats 14 O_o anyway ... the bonfire was great :D

tommorow is athletics day, and im not going :p wednesday i have a meeting after school about leadership thingo's and thursday im going to the zooooo for bio! i shall post again then with the full report :p

greek dancing in the living room :p

ok here's a MUCH needed update on my life since .... the last time i posted :p (my god that was LAST YEAR! :O lol)

im guessing i didnt write about new years day so i'll start off with that :p
so first of january came, i woke up at around 10 to get ready to go to my aunts house. I was all sticky and sweaty from the really hot night before so i got into summer clothing, thinking that it was going to be hot ... whoops! my mistake :oy: lol
i was at my aunt's house watching the will and grace marathon on arena with my cousins while my aunt and uncle were preparing a souvla and salads, potatoes and whatever else you could imagine for lunch. It wasnt sunny outside, but it was quite warm .... until it started bucketing down all of a sudden O_o
my cousin in laws sister couldnt get out of the car because she had a baby and she didnt want to get him sick so they were waiting in the car for what seemed like 15 minutes :lol:
we ate, we watched tv, we played table soccer?, we communicated ... 'twas good LOL

ok ... so whats with the weird title? well it all happened on monday ....
i went to my friend samantha's house at 12 pm. i was meant to meet her and dee there and catch the bus to chadstone with them just so we can go crazy at the shops, but when i got there it was her mother and her oldest sister home. her mother explained that sammy went to get dee from her house so i sat down and watched a bit of dr phil :lmao: when they finally arrived we took off for the bus stop near her house, caught the bus and went to chadstone. We went NUTS there. at first we were normal, we went into the clothes shops and had a look through them, went across the street to eat maccas since the food court really didnt have anything that we wanted to eat. i guess we should have avoided maccas, we came back to chadstone shopping centre acting like complete twits lmao. We went into myer and went through all the body butters and perfume testers we could find and came out looking like oil sticks O_O. Samantha managed to find a tester of fake tan and sprayed me with it ... unevenly so now i have orange blotches on my legs which are starting to go away (yessss!). Me and dee decided to go buy chocolate milkshakes and went bargain hunting for them ... seriously we went to about 3 stand place - shops just to find the cheapest one there O_o. we settled for wendy's, bought out milkshakes and made our way home ... not knowing that the chocolate milkshakes would giveus a sudden HUGE boost of energy ... and thats where the greek dancing in the living room heading comes in lol.
my friend sammy has a 3 disc stereo system with a great subwoofer :roll: we were going nuts to since you've been gone and other kelly clarkson songs when the cd changed and gave us ... TRADITIONAL GREEK DANCING SONGS! :w00t: :lmao:
milkshake + loud kelly clarkson songs + greek tradtional music = 3 girls who are really hyper and are now blocking sammy's mother's view of the tv with thier greek dances :lmao:
we were dancing around the house, we were insane and not even drunk ... me and sam dont drink :p

to end it i will say that i got home safely, dad drove me ... but i was on a massive hyper mood for the rest of the day :lmao:

havent updated my journal in a long time ... but char told me to update it so here's another entry :p

on christmas day i went to my family friends house. Maria lives around the corner from me so we got there very easily :p. There were heaps of people there, some that i knew and some that i didnt know. We all ate food together... and when i mean food i mean LOTS of food ... lol
potatoes, souvla, chicken, rice, seafood, salads, breads from the top of my head :p and then about 2 hours later there were many cakes :D caaaaaaaake *drools*

maria's cousin melina brought a video camera with her so we running around filming people eating and talking lmao. we got told off so we went into her room and filmed our own mini movie ... which didnt endup getting finished and also proved that we all couldn't act for peanuts rofl!

umm i remember some of it

maria : marina, hows bob?
me : ahh it aint there for me, what about ... (wait whats his name?) TIM!
maria : he's been a bit of a player lately ...
( i had to run out of the room and slide a christmas card under the door)
me: oooh theres a letter
maria: wait man im putting on mascara... (melina zooms in on her face and made it come in from under, which looked awsome!)
me: MARIA! the letter!
maria: you have lipgloss?
me: get the letter!
maria: alright, fuck maaaan
(goes to get it, opens it)
maria: whats K-I-L-L?
me: it's KILL maria!
maria: AH! (pause) .... SHIT!!!!!!

end O_o
i must say the lines and acting was horrible ... but the cam work was awsome! WELL DONE MELINA! :roll:
(blame the lines on melina :p ... blame the bad acting on me and maria lmao)

i dont know which was sadder, the fact that we got so bored that we filmed a screwwy movie or the fact that we watched it back more than 10 times ...lol

I got out of bed at 9.20 to get ready to meet up with my friends at maccas (also known as mcdonalds) , dont ask me why they wanted to go to maccas at 10.30 in the morning, probably bcause they were going to catch the bus to mortialic later to go to the beach O_o. today was the worst weather for the beach, seriously.
