The Best Time You've Had with a Reliever

It was a Monday.
The weather was stormy, thunder and lightening cracking through the heavens,
lighting up the sky with all its glory. Rain pounded against the cold glass windows,
everyone was either miserable or staring out the window to watch the show,
(unless you are Seamus and are now cowering under the desk after the first roar).

The reliever we had wasn't helping our combined moods, seeing as we had all merged into the two emotions, Boredom, from what we were supposed to be doing and, Frustration and Anger,
towards the horrid reliever, every so often she would scream out things like "Quiet" and
"Write more this is Pathetic!!". Every so often she would slowly, quietly, sneakily lean over your shoulder to check your work. You could tell when she was not happy, because you would be deaf in one ear for a full five minutes after.

That's when Isaac spotted it, "Wow, what are those things on the back of her neck, you know the one half hidden by her shirt collar" he whispered to Luke and Drew on either side of him. The news spread like wild fire through the classroom, whispered though powerful. Everyone when they could, were sneaking peaks and trying to find out what they were. Josh, one of the tallest in our class finally saw what they were, "There's tattoo's on different places, I think they're pressure points" he whispered.

That is when the reliever asked Bree if she could do up her necklace, which she had been failing to do up for the last ten minutes, as I looked around I realised why she had asked Bree, because everyone had a crazy glint in their eyes and their faces were of anticipation and wanting. As Bree did up her necklace she accidentally hit one of the points with a circular symbol above it,this made her very, very mad. When it was changed the woman screamed out in anger to everyone see could see, trying to leave them with the blame of something horrible they hadn't done. Bree, still standing behind her pushed another purposely this time with star.

As Bree went back to her seat, the teacher started smiling such an innocent smile and announced that we should now call her Rainbow Star. She grabbed something from her bag ducked under the desk and a few moments later popped back up again, when she did she was wearing long, flowing , bright coloured clothes, with a flower print hairband and her long hair flowing down her back. "Let's have some fun!" she yelled, she flipped a switch by her desk which made the lights dim down, a disco ball fall down and bright lights in the corners come out. She pulled a huge stereo out of a very small cupboard and started blasting some techno music.

Once we had had a good look around at the transformation, we saw the teacher in the middle of the cleared dancing space, doing the swim, the robot etc. Many people joined in, giant smiles on their faces. We danced so hard, that by the end of the period we were all exhausted and happy.
She flipped the switch and the lights disappeared and went and put the stereo back in the cupboard, and some people saw her push another pressure point as we all filed out.
The next class filed in, we heard from down the hall, loud voice saying "Is that a pink T-Shirt underneath your uniform!?!?!" It's good to be back. As long as it's not you.

Some Teasers

I thought I might just write some teasers because I couldn't be bothered going into to much and I didn't have time, so here they are:

Through the darkness, a deserted road appeared, a young man staggering down it,
the man had short cropped brown hair, and muscular arms and body.
The man was holding his arm and had blood oozing between his fingers and
out of quite a large gash in his leg.
The man's stagger was growing faster, his glances back making him increase his pace.
Like something or someone.
Was after him....


A cool autumn breeze lightly touched her face as she flipped the page of the
book she was reading. This girl was in her mid-teens, long silky blonde hair and the figure of a ballerina. Everyone thought that she was wasting her talent and her life for doing this.
This meaning, finding herself a book, rather than picking her recital music, wandering to her favourite tree in the park, rather than practicing. The tree was a large oak, it was the one over from the oldest oak in the area, it was huge and had a swing on one of its branches.
Sitting under the tree reading the good book until she was finished, she would this for days and days, over and over, until one day a man in a long, dark trench coat walked up to her and smiled, the smile went all the way up to his creul eyes, hidden under his hat....

Sunday with Friends

Jumping off the small grass embankment, knowing there was no way
to back out now, we all had to do it, it was too hot not too.
Walking across the golden sand, with Neil and Tess by my side.
Tess was Neil's dog, she was a black lab mix and in my opinion one of the cutest dogs ever.
Me chatting with Neil, and with Drew and Hilary wandering along behind.
We decided it was now, we were going to do it, Neil chucked a stick into the water
and Hilary and I raced in to try and beat Tess, me chickening out before it got
too far past my knees.
The Drew jumped in splashing everyone, as Neil waded towards us I decided
I would do it after him, he dived then I did, that's it, we did it.
Our clothes were soaked.
I knew it wasn't the best idea and had hoped against it happening, but it is nature....
I stayed swimming around for a while then Hilary came to join me, we were swimming
around to try and get rid of the numbness, we talked about the big thing that had just
happened and what she was going to do.
Then we got out, because the swimming hadn't done anything to keep us warm,
the guys were flirting hard out it was so funny.
That's when they noticed...
..My shorts were see-through.
.. I had worn white shorts..

Nancy


She's kind, she's sweet, she's funny and always seems to be thinking of someone else and how she can help them, so I'm there to help her. We tell each other everything that happens in our lives, even if we know the other might not react the way we wanted to our news.

Everyone is always going on about her height but its the thing I notice least when I'm around her. She loves writing songs and she's really good at it, she is a great pianist and passed grade 8 last year (which is quite a big deal). On brennyns birthday, because she couldn't see her on the day as she
Bobbie Nancy Robin Avon
goes to another school now, That I would bring them to her the next day.

With Bob, there was a plastic flower we thought looked nice for a belated present and it didn't exactly smell so hot, so we got like three different sprays for the inside, it smelt better but you would kind of shocke if you breathed it in, and we successfully intoxicated the library.

She is the one when she gets a dead line she sticks to it, even if others are mucking around she will be the one powering through with the work like its all so easy.

She's one of my closest friends, we have loads in common like Music, Song-Writing, and Galoop went the frog :-P

Nancy is absolutely great,
You can't find a flaw,
She is a great Best Friend

Future School

As the fog lifted....

I saw a huge towering dome, that made even the largest building look small.
The huge thing, made of metal and glass, so opposing, so frightening.
If or when you got up the courage to go inside the door was almost impossible to find.
Once I found the door, you needed certain identification to get through and into the institute within, this was an easier way for staff to find out which people were in class and who wasn't,
I thought as I picked up a brochure.

How did I get here I wondered, The last thing I remember before being here was, I was in the girls bathrooms at school with my friends. The next thing I knew the rest of the girls were banging on the door, it seemed that we had been locked in. We left Haley at the door to call for anyone that could help us, while the rest of us looked around for a way out of here, as all the bathrooms seem to smell really bad and have spitballs on the ceilings.
Some girls were trying to open the windows, that seemed jammed shut, I didn't have any job so i was running my hand along the walls to see if I would get inspired, but instead I fell through one of them and thats how I got here. Wherever here is.

I walked into this huge expanse of space, huge buildings towering over everyone
The thing that struck me was how everything looked cold, sterile, like even a dirty thought would detain you.
Teenagers whizzing by on some sort of hovering contraption, a silver disk they stood on,
with handlebars hovering in the cleched hand of the rider.
Everything was shiny metal, in the brochure it says that this dome
is not just here for looks but it is an all weather environment,
to help with less outside distractions to keep the pupils focus solely on their work.

I couldn't help but feel nervous at how apposing everything was.
As I turned to continue exploring, I saw a group of older boys,
hiding under the stairs to a building smoking, thinking they were hidden.
All of a sudden a hologram came seemingly out of thin air and surrounded the boys like a tornado.
Looks of shock and fright covered the boys faces as they knew they had been caught red handed.
As quickly as it had been there it was gone, the bouys were all looking very relieved, and thats when the ground fell from beneath them showing a hole that was so dark it seemed never-ending.

Passing the classrooms, the pupils seemed engrosed with what the teacher was telling them, some even leaning or shuffling closer, afraid to miss even one word.
As I looked again, I saw something quite strange, there was something wrong about the image I was seeing. The teacher, she seemed to be rippling with the slight breeze coming through the window, it had to be it, I had the best vision out of everyone I know.
Yes, I said in my head as I checked again, that has to be it, she's a holo-gram.
No one seemed to notice I was there until a strict looking teacher saw me and started walking straight for me. Hair done up in a severe bun on the back of her head, perfect, not a hair out of place, a black high waisted skirt and a white blouse, with high black stiletto heels, clicking along as she walks.

I was so scared I froze. Stiff as a bored, too scared to move.
Then my brain kicked in, I ran for the closest toilets I had hust walked past.
Sprinting in my school shoes was a challenge in itself, I saw her gesture to something, then all of a sudden whirring filled the air, I ran faster knowing this wasn't going to end well.
I finally reached it and slammed the door on my persuers, breathing hard, I sat down on one side of the room on a bench attached to the wall wondering what I should do now.
I walked around the room dragging my fingers along the walls to try and calm my mind, what was not helping the calming was the constant and loud banging and thudding on the door.
I continued to walk round.
I tripped on something I hadn't seen, and fell, I put my hand up to catch the wall,
But instead of holding myself up I fell straight through, leaving the splintering sound of wood as they had finally broken there way into the bathroom.
Peace.
Calm.
Quiet.

Bull...And I Can Run On Water

I went to Spain with a small group of mates; we were here to run with the bulls. We went out for a night on the town, looking for some good female company, we got totally wasted but had so much fun.

The next morning I woke up and felt like a 10 ton anvil had dropped on my head, I looked at the clock,
Shit-take mushrooms, it was 12 already, not that it wasn’t surprising seeing as we only got back around 4 or 5. I slowly woke up all the guys, who were all spread out on the floor, having not made it to bed in time. I went over to Matt and kicked him in the ribs, after a gentle shaking not having woken him up, I then preceded to do this to the rest of the guys who were in various states of disarray. Though Pete I found in the bathroom clinging to the toilet.

I yelled and yelled until all of them were up, because all of them were up, because the running with the bulls is on at 1. After putting on our very dark shades and a hat we were ready, well as ready as you can be after a night like that.

We gathered with all the other daring guys from all over the world. The minute I saw the bull, fuming and scraping its front hoof on the hard ground, I instantly regretted last night. As they let the bull out of the pen all the men scrambled and sprinted down the road, as I looked back, the angry bull I saw had found some friends, who were also chasing us.

We soon got tired , me and my mates so we were the last, the bulls picked us off, each taking a person, as I ran I saw the wharf, the bull was so close behind, I could feel its warm breath on my neck, I jumped.
It was like I was running on water, I was safe I thought, bulls can’t swim, well that’s what I was thinking when it jumped in after me.

My Best Friend....


She is the randomest, craziest, most INSANE, Person I know!!!
We make up stupid little things we always say, our latest one is
"Grab it by the Horn!!" She is always so bubbly and energetic,
she is always ready for anything. If you can't picture her yet,
think the exact opposite of me! We have nothing but our humor in common.
She is a great singer and we always battle for the highest scores on singstar,
(Though I usually end up winning(I think its broken).
She has sympathy for no one but me, and that is only occasionally,
Like me she gets confused quite easily.
The last text I got from her, she was plucking the carpet or something crazy like that,
she was sticking a long piece of seletape onto the carpet, I think she thought she was
cleaning it. She is absolutely OBSESSED with Cherries!!
She has the shortest attention span, known to man and says the weirdest things out of the blue.
But that is just Sarah.

"Grab it by the tusk"

"How come you always get the village idiot who has to act out his directions"
"Go round the round-a-bout"

"Brian, my dog, drags his ass along the carpet, not anymore, we put wood flooring down,
3rd degree burns he has on his ass, Baboon Boy we call him"

"Get thy wads out for seuth"

"How can-eth you burn-eth the butter-eth-eth"

Most of the quotes were from the Lee Evan 2005 XL Tour

It our special movie thing we always watch together.
It never gets old and we know most of the words off by heart!!

Describing my dad Alec

He is very Talkative, once he starts talking it seems like he can't stop,
He talks and has an opinion on every subject you can think of.
He's so funny, when we have family gatherings, he's always the life of the party.
Everything would be so dull without him around, I will make sure he won't,
But apparently he's going to break dance at my 16th, not my 21st cause
if he does it then he'll probably break something.
He's always so fun and up for anything, he's a builder and has his own crew.
Even though he gets on my nerves sometimes, if you want to have fun though,
He's always there to have fun with.
He usually feels guilty that we don't see each other often,
So when I go up and see him he totally spoils me.
He's a great dad.

New Tricks Competition

I am soaring through the air, like a bird,
Yet very restricted, holding onto the handle bars
like I would never let go. I can't hold on
any longer my grip on the bike slips,
I am falling fast towards the solid road that awaits me.
But now I fill in the blanks , my mates and I were heading down
to a little competition to show off our new tricks.
When we got there, there was more people than usual, which we
thought nothing of because the love of throwing tricks was
spreading and going strong. First there were some old guys, flying
off the ramp, doing flips, 360 degree turns, and , so many new
ones. My friends and some other guys I had seen, were cheering
me on and kept pushing me to go up there and show off some
of my new tricks when I finally caved, everyone cheered
and yelled all excited for me and happy that the anticipation
was over. I wheeled my bike to the runway before the ramp,
looking down steep hill, I imagined the trick I was going to pull in my head,
It was a new one, secret, I started pedalling hard to get enough momentum
to pull it off, then I was in the air, now, here I am, Falling.
All the guys watch my progress in horror, for they know
this cannot end well, slowly falling, picking up speed,
now plummeting towards the ground, Its coming up to meet me,
I know I have to roll with the impact or I will break all
the bones in my body.
Here it comes, smack, the crunching impact hits me like a rock,
or thousands of them, people surround me, Pain,
Then only blackness

Movies


Well my friend Weezie and I went to see St. Trinains today

I think it was awesome!!!

It was so funny and definitely my type of movie.

I definitely recommend it

We went to see it because
Her grandma had the original series in black and white
That we recently watched and we really wanted to see it remade
I still think that the series though in black and white is still the tiniest bit better
But still a great movie


I won't spoil it for you so you'll just have to go see it yourself
