Recapitulation for 2005

Due to some outside influence (namely Jess), I have decided to directly copy someone else's idea of having a recap on the now previous year.

ahem

Term One, The Nastiness

Although it is somewhat vague in my mind, I remember being nasty. (I know you're nodding your heads, I was born with the gift of a psychic!) This was also the term when I was still very immature. I think it was because of the year seven influence.

I played Softball and Catherine Phillip's dad told me to hold the bat a little closer since the swing would come around faster. We were playing some weird school that had a stupid pitcher who could pitch fast.

Term Two, Dregs of Nastiness and Rain

So anyway, I think I was still really nasty and bitchy in term two. I think I must have diverted my nastiness to some other person. I sound so mean. In retrospect, I still think I am, but it's diluted. Like Nick's blood in Across the Wall! I'm becoming random.

In Term Two, it rained a lot. Figures, it was winter.

Term Three, The Blurry Term

Term Three was blurry, hence the name. I can't remember much about it. I remember that I played Volleyball with Wensi. I also found out that my serves get really dodgy and that I can't slide, even with the aid of knee thingees. In hindsight, this term was probably the term of revelations. Revelations meaning I realised things about people/things. It wasn't also one-way, I think it could be said that people realised things about yours truly. It's quite sad really.

I was quite proud that I got an A+ in Geography. It was in that big project thing. It proves that I am not entirely dumb in Geography, even though I seem to be very lax in it.

Term Four, the Freshest

I can remember certain things very well in Term Four. I can remember that I actually like it when it rains in summer. Although it's not very pleasant when it rains in summer (because the trams get really yucky), I liked the smell and freshness of the air. (I sound so poetic... not!) I found out some surprising things like Mrs Johnston is really observant. Now that's not something we get to find out everyday, is it? The bitchiness and nastiness died down on my part. Things were on and off. (I'm not making sense but hey, I wasn't good at english) I learnt more about yours truly this term.

In this term, I made an effort too look good at Speech Night. Can you believe it? I actually ironed my shirt, skirt and tie. So proud! My skirt was actually presentable too. Though, my tights were still itching.


I suppose this year has been a successful year. Had I the chance to go back and live 2005 again, I think I could make things a whole lot better and less hurtful. Unfortunately, I have no such power, so we all have to live with the scars. If it makes things any better, I'm still licking my wounds.

It's time to close the chapter on 2005 (I had to copy a common phrase) and embrace 2006! I will make an effort for this year to be memorable but who knows how it'll turn out. Maybe next year I won't even blog. In that case, I'm not sure if anyone will know if 2006 has been successful.

(This was supposed to have an abrupt ending)
