I go back Tuesday week. Hey you got one up on me now, i wanted to go see Cirque De Solei and th Lion King so... :D . All our geography teachers are youngish females. We have one older guy, Mr Gray ("'Ister Gway"... lol, unfortunatly he hasn't seen or read Dreamcatcher), but he's hysterical, he constantly tells us these out there stories when we're meant to working... Mrs Pinese is my fav teacher, she has all these catch phrases, we count how many times she uses them in a lesson ("Detrimental", "Riparian Zone" and "We're going off on a tangent")... that and the fact i usually get A's from her in geo and eng :D .

[Tari]

"We're goin off on a tangent." how often have i heard that one?!? my fav teacher isn't my teacher but she was last year. we nicknamed her the Evil Lady!!! and then theres Evil Lady's sidekick who is also pretty kewl.

we then nicknamed tose two and another Ed, Gonzi, and whatshisname. the 2 hyena's from the Lion King. simply bcoz the dont shut up and stop laughing. you no i mentioned the Science Block Offices. well all those teacher have nicknames in our group!! :D tis quite amusng simply bcoz we can talk bout em and they just walk past completely oblivious to it!! :D **evil laugh**

**evil laugh**
hmm yes.. quite evil *muhahaahahaahaahah... Gemini rubs her hands together in fiendish glee* We haven't made up names for our teachers...yet, but we still talk about them .... :eek: *shudder* i just thought about our deputy priciple, :p , he openly, in public, at assembly, picks his bum.......... :eek: and there's this joke that he has a hat fetish as he is ALWAYS wearing a hat, he dated another teacher at the school for a while and there were all these jokes along the lines of "Ohh Tony, put on the Akubra again... go on" lol ahh they we're funny at the time trust me :D

one of the girls in our class is trying to set our history teacher up with one of the teachers. i mean this is maye!!! he is thirty eight and losing his hair from pulling it out during our lessons!!!! nah Mr Maye is alright. cant diss him . . . . . . . . . much!!! :D

have you seen da movie Quills? or Merchant of Venice?

i'm a period piece fan. i love all da period piece movies. i bought Quills the other day and am looking for Merchant of Venice. it's a shakespeare performance.

Phantom of the Opera comes out on April 20th!!!!!!!! am HAPPY!!!! :D :eek:
**jumping up and down**

~Tari

P.S. is our turn to go crazy with posts!!!!! :D :eek:

[Gemini]

No i've never seen Quills, but i'm curious, i saw the History Channel Biography on the Marquis De Sade and he seemed... interesting to say the least :D I have seen Merchant of Venice, it was a BBC production and naturaly it was dull beyond belief (We studied Merchant in yr 10 for Eng, we had to perform excerpts, so much fun! Me and my friend did Launcelot and Old Gobbo, when they meet in the street, problem was i had an awful flu like thing ( :confused: :D ) at the time and i lost my voice halfway through, still got an A though! :D ) All i know about Phantom is that it's an opera and the guy who played the mormon in 'Angels in America' is in it, you sound like one of my friends, she is obsessed with those kinds of operas and musicals. BTW i was reading back over the thread, you are so lucky to have a friend who's read Pellinor, i don't, i have no one to talk to about them... cept for you guys a course :D . I know i should convince one to read them (Alison would probably thank me :D ) but non of them like fantasy all that much. :(

Marquid De Sade is quite interesting actually and the movie is really good. but i dont think i could read any of his works

I have seen Merchant of Venice, it was a BBC production and naturaly it was dull beyond belief

MErchant of Venice was a movie not the BBC produciton. all then are boring though. but im still searching for it.

We studied Hamlet last yr and am doin A Midsummer Nights Dream in drama his year and some other tragedy in Lit that has flown out of my head. Macbeth! thats it. yeh we had to perform exerts from hamlet and modernize it last yr so my friends and i did when Ophelia went mad and her brother confronts the king but we made it a highskool and i was da Queen! a total of 2 lines!!!1 yay!!! i was proud.

Last year we had to walk the entire cross country course in sport . . . merely coz they had nothing else for us to do. . . .and my friend Emma, who had just read the Gift and my friend Eliza who was waiting for my copy of it we spent the entire two hourse talking about it and when we go back from the walk we had all lost our voices. but tis good to have some1 to argue about the books with. or you could call them heated discussions.

All my friends read and most write fantasy also so tis really great in that aspect.

i soz i is tired and am goin to bed. nice talking to you though. :) **waves goodnight across the vast emptiness of Australia**

We're doing Macbeth this year too, i think we have to do a court type thing, where we make up a defending argument for Macbeth or something. In yr 11 last year we had to modernise Romeo and Juliet and we watched the Baz Luhurman film (love that movie!!!!!) and wrote an essay on it, it was so much fun. OMG :eek: .... 2 HOURS! our cross country is only 4 km and takes half an hour on average to walk, plus it's at the beach so it's a ton-o-fun. Hey you have a friend called Emma... sure it's not me? *shifty glace to left and right*... very common name it seems. Yet another sideline (sorry Alison!) have you ever googled yourself (ie put ur name into google and read what came out, go over to http://www.sffworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9798 to check out the thread, there are quite a few people with the same name as me it turns out... scary.) oh i've been tiring you out poor Tari, nite nite then, you're two hours behind me and you think it's late :D . I have to put my cat to bed anyways, Shadow is getting restless and is currently sitting in front of the computer screen, glaring at me. Better go then. :D

[Tari]

U're in yr 12 hey? i wanted to do Romeo and Juliet but they said no :( oh well. Our cross country is only something like 3.6km thorugh da bush near da skool but it was sport and we only walked it to get familiar with the course bcoz it was new plus tlaking non sotp doesn't help your intake of air does it!!! :D last yr my friend Elizabeth and i walked the entire course backwards. :D painful!!!! i dont recommend it.

Emma is quite common but mind u so it Rebecca. in my primary skool graduation class there were 2 of us and would have been 4 but she left da skool. Rebecca A B D and the one that left was C. coincidence? :eek:

Yes i soz bout leaving last ngiht but i was so tired for some unknown reason. i was doin homework all day. :( tis not fun. and i'm doin more work now. plus i si working til midnight tonight. . . . possibly i dunno if i'll bother goin depends on how tired i am. *shrugs*

Ciao 4 now
