Point to Prove.

As always I have a point to prove. Whilst many a person will say "Why bother?" or "What's the point?" they are obviously not too familiar with the delicious feeling of victory....

Mum says I can't keep a blog, that I'm too lazy. She's probably right actually but it's more a lack of interesting things to say, I mean I know I talk a lot, but I'm the first to admit I have little to actually say. Guess it's not such an important thing, I have bits and pieces.

Monday is the Athletics carnival for our school. Apparently if I don't go I'll regret it for the rest of my life, at least that's what everyone is saying "OH IT'S YOUR LAST YEAR, YOU SIMPLY MUST!" perhaps in a slightly less formal manner but none the less.....I'm not going. I won't go, they'll make me run, jump and then do both together for hurdles and not only do I hate sport, I despise athleticism. People think it's great to be muscular and fit. It's not. Exercise kills-Look at Bruce Lee. Not only does it kill but for those it leaves alive they make the rest of us look bad. It makes us look tubby and lazy. No, exercise is bad for our self-esteem and I generally recommend we all avoid it. So instead I'll spend my day catching up on homework, fairly certain THAT is a must.

So now that I'm back from Germany, I've put all my study efforts into learning German as best I can. It turns out it is rather difficult to teach yourself a language so I've found help. I go to my classes in school, an extra German school on weekends (yep, I'm just that hardcore) and I badger my exchange family with random emails with enough grammatical errors to keep them correcting for weeks. Then on top of that I have enough German grammar books and textbooks to please any Teacher...I'm determined....I will get more than a 33. I must, mostly coz Mum's moving to Germany and I sense proficiency in German might be beneficial....I have been known to be wrong occasionally though....

Today I had my first shift at work for four months. It was seven hours long but surprisingly not too bad. I guess I really have no life because I was kind of looking forward to it, to see my friends though....not coz I was overly excited to sell fries and clean tables. It was good though and considering I need to earn quite a bit for next year's tripping through Europe, I think it's a good thing I like my job.

Well my point has been proven for tonight....I will keep a blog.....challenge accepted.

Hope all is well.
