Hello MEDL!
2013 is finally retiring and it has been such an interesting year for me, and I hope it has been too for you. I started intermediate, I changed the name of my second blog to Electra and Marian, and MEDL recently celebrated one year together. Even though if you all don't comment or share my blog posts, it's okay. My blogs are not about getting famous or anything, but for me to expose my passion of writing to the world wide web. But that doesn't mean you can't interact with the blog! Don't be afraid to comment or share my posts, or visit the MEDL page. I'll make sure to reply to all interactions made about my blogs.
While 2013 is still here, I'm finishing all the things that need to be done, like writing blog posts, and cleaning up. I'm also starting to write my New Year's Resolutions, and I will hopefully act up on them next year.
Since I want to expand my knowledge on the Spanish culture and understand what they're saying on Violetta, I'm learning Spanish by studying at home using books I find at the library. My goal is to speak fluently by the end of 2014, and I'm dreaming of either visiting Argentina or other Latin American countries. It's not a plan, it's a dream (only if my family has time and money, and a guide (because my family don't know much about places in Latin America)).
With a new year coming, you'll be expecting people to go crazy about it (*cough cough* me *cough*). Here are some sayings nearly everyone will be saying:
"New Year, New Me"
"I'll start a new healthy diet! And maybe fix up on my math skills!"
"I'll be more productive this year!"
"I won't forget to do the traditions when 00:00 strikes!"
That is all for 2013! Happy New Year everyone! Look after yourselves and God Bless!
Marian

FELIZ NAVIDAD! (25/12/13)
Today was beautiful.
I got the chance to spend some time with my close friends and loving family and have our first proper hosting of a party, and boy it takes a lot of hard work!
My parents were up early to organise and get everything ready while my sister and I were being lazy and playing Sims on my laptop. Procrastination and laziness are not the answers!
The party was very energetic and happy. The kids and a couple of teens were out in the backyard while the grown ups were inside. All of the families who were there exchanged gifts with each other and ate lots of food. I think I've eaten too much food because I feel like I've gained about 5 kilos today. I think we've found the one who's guilty in this case...
As I promised on my Facebook page, I took some snaps throughout my Christmas day.
This post actually ended up to be short. I guess not much happened than I expected it to be.
Thank you for reading and I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! And to those on the opposite side of the globe from New Zealand, I hope you all will have a very blessed day!

My Holiday So Far (17/12/13)
"Marian, how are your holidays going so far?"
Not too shabby. I'm totally loving the warm sun here in NZ, but the only problem is that I'm not getting out of the house much. I just stay inside blogging and dancing and using the laptop. But I'd like to show you some photos I took in the holidays.
Thanks for reading and looking! Don't forget to like the MEDL page for more updates:

Say Hello to Summer! (10/12/13)
Hello Marian's Everyday Life!
I finished my school year as a year seven and it feels pretty saddening (sorry for the corniness). Even if I'm not exactly a year thirteen yet, I feel like I'm not attending school any more in my life. School is where you fail, succeed, and enjoy your life as a student.
Enough with the saddening bits! Grrr...
Here's how my last day of school for 2013 went:
I came early to school for some reason. I wasn't really excited to go today, because Gwen wasn't planning to come to school because of her trip to India, and we didn't have a full day, which bugged me a bit about the day because I thought that it would ruin the routine a bit.
When I arrived my class and I did the usual classroom stuff (roll call, notices, etc.) and then tidied up the classroom. We stacked the tables up on one side because the carpet was going to get cleaned, moved the chairs into the gym because they needed it for prize giving later on, and had interval. Since Gwen wasn't present, Regina and I just played on Regina's phone and ate food.
The junior school (because the seniors had already left school earlier) had a prize giving for the year. It wasn't that bad because it was about congratulating the people who got what they deserved. My hands are still sore from clapping as I write today's update!
The prize giving took about a hour and a half to finish and the school went back to their form classes. My class sat down on the floor and received our reports, magazines, and special end of year goodie bags (Just so you know, magazines are what we call yearbooks). Like every other magazine, there's a page where everyone writes their signature. I only managed to get two people, Regina and another girl in my 2013 class, because we didn't have enough time to sign all books. Everybody hugged each other and said their farewells for the eight weeks to come of not hanging out at school and having a relaxing rest.
Pretty sad, isn't it? Well, that's what I think. I'm sorry if I probably ruined your happiness streak, or whatever mood you're in. All I can say left is that a load of other pupil and I just finished another chapter of our academic story, and getting ready for another chapter ahead. Thank you for reading and thanks to the people who helped me finish this journey of being a year seven.
Bye!

Christmas Par-tayy! (7/12/13)
I attended a Christmas party tonight and it was boring! Yay!
Nevermind. I actually had a lot of fun. I ate delicious food and danced with my friends and family.
At first, I didn't dance. But later on, I danced.
HELLO MISS OBVIOUS.
Sorry, I just want to fill up some space on today's blog post, so you all wouldn't be bored with a short one.
I
AM
BORED

Creating Board Games, Moving Houses, and Inactivity on EAM (24/11/13)
Hello Everyoneeeeee!
This week was really interesting, but has been the busiest of all so far in my life.
Here's why:
My family and I have had a rough journey trying to find a new house, because we had spent six- seven years in our old house, so it was time to change.
And when we finally found one, we moved into there, completed the stuff that we needed to do, and now I'm in the new house, typing today's post!
Meanwhile at school, the end of the academic year is coming to an end very soon. I think from now on we have two weeks of school left, which makes me very emotional (I just realised how cony that sounded, but I'm still gonna put that in) because this year was wonderful and it showed me that life has challenges that you can easily figure out a way to fix. So about my schooling life, we're finishing off bits and bobs and organising heaps of fun things.
On my other blog, Electra and Marian, we're currently having inactivity with the same reason here on MEDL. But, it will go active again on Friday this week! Yay!
Here is a photo I would like to show you all on what I did with my bedroom closet when my family and I first moved in:

I Forgot my P.E Gear! (22/11/13)
Jajajaja!
And later on I found out why everybody was clapping for me: I was score keeping! Oh, how exciting. It was actually fun getting to record the scores because you didn't have to embarrass yourself when you get a strike for not hitting the ball and everybody starts laughing at you, if you suck a sports like me. (which you probably don't. I bet you can even run a kilometer!)
I better go now. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
*Speaking from Friday, the 22nd of Nov.
That was just 'hahahaha' in Spanish.
Geez Marian, you really need to come up with interesting intros to your posts, not random laughing noises.
Oh well, let's get on.
Hello MEDL! Today* I wrote this post in a journal form. Enjoy!
22/11/13
P.E
I forgot my gear and now I'm sitting under a tree writing in this thing. Everybody is also sitting under a tree, but listening to the P.E teacher. They're going to play tee ball and I will later on score keep, so that's why I will keep this entry short.
All of a sudden as I was writing, everybody clapped for me. Um, for what reason? I don't know, hehe.
My butt hurts sitting on the tree's visible roots, and I'm guessing that everybody is going to start any minute of playing this game. Better get going, score keeping time!

Pfftt... In Your Dreams... (14/11/13)
BYE EVERYONE I'M GOING TO ARGENTINA!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
...In my dreams!
I feel like living there and not in New Zealand because of my new favourite show, Violetta.
Like, I'm desperate. I would study hard in Spanish, save up money, and try to meet the cast! My lifetime and ultimate dream.
But I will miss NZ as much as I will miss my friends. Like Faith, Yasmin, Christa, Chloe, Harriet, JP, too many to count! I wish I could pack them into my suitcases without customs checking them out...
There are too many things happening in my life right now. I better quit dreaming and start doing (if I can). Relax, stay in control, and organise!
Jorge Blanco... Jorge Blanco... Jorge Blanco is gorgeous!
I
WANT
TO
HUG
HIM
NOW!
It's a necessity. Duhh?
If you don't even know what I'm talking about, here is a video about the show, 'Violetta'.
Well, that's the 2012 opening. Let me show you the 2013 opening:
The reason why one is in English and the other one is in Spanish is because this show is based in Argentina (hence the dream and whining of living in Argentina). Violetta is based on a girl's life which is based upon "music, love, and passion". It sound really girly, but I love that show.
Let me show you how gorgeous and handsome my favourite characters are:

EXAMS - DAY 2: (11/11/13)
Here is some more stuff from what I wrote after the exam yesterday:
Science Test
It took me so long to finish this test. My friends are finished and there's 10 minutes left as I write this. The next exam is in periods 4 and 5 and it's Social Studies. I'M GONNA FAIL IT. Why do the subjects that I suck at have to be together in one day? Argh! At least English and R.E were together on Friday... I feel like everyone is looking at me throughout the day, even though if I'm alone in my bedroom on nights. Me too lazy to write more. I'll talk to you later. BYEEEEEEE!
It's so late now that I'm not even changed into my PJs yet. Well, better go! See you MEDL!

EXAMS - DAY 1: (8/11/13)
Hello everyone! How are you all going?
I have just started my end of year exams on Friday, along with my fellow junior pupil who go to my school. We had two exams on that day, but it was pretty easy, to be honest. And in between those exam periods, we had breaks where we got to go to our normal classes.
I wrote some notes in my notebook on what happened that day in a normal timetable class. Here it is:
French:
I just finished my first exam for the three days. It was R.E and it was pretty easy, thanks to my primary school which was Catholic and where I received a bible to read and reflect with every week. I am currently in French now and we're supposed to be stuDYING but I am writing in this journal (hehe, rebel). The timetable for these exams is so messed up. I am in period three and right after this it's lunchtime and before this period we just had interval. Period four is the period before lunch. Anyway, I think that we just have to cope with it..
The three musketeers are sitting and starring at the miraculous view out on the window while suffocating on some dude behind us' deodorants. Gwen told us that he had like 3 sprays and 6 roll-ons just by turning around! What a collector. Regina's all like "Well, just buy the whole supermarket then, aye?" And what's more horrible is that he's sharing the roll-ons with another guy. Doesn't he know that that will spread germs? Meh, his fault...
Byee I have to go now class is getting busy!
a a a a a a a a a a a m m m m m m m m m

What the heck, Dorothy. Are you crazy?
Oh gosh, I better go to sleep now. Goodnight MEDL!

Being Miley Cyrus, Two Week Hiatus, and Halloween! (31/10/13)
Hey!
I'm back from the 'two week' hiatus. I cancelled the hiatus because I had a craving to blog again. And it sure does feel awesome! Here is what you guys have missed out on for this week:
I study at a Catholic school and we had R.E but my teacher had a dance practise at the same time for her other students so she took my class and I to the gym. The gym was split into two halves with a tarpaulin-like curtain because also at the same time there was a senior P.E class. The girls stayed at the half of the gym where the dance practise was and the boys were playing on the half where the P.E class was, until I saw one of the boys swinging on the ropes beside the huge curtain. My male classmate came out of the curtain and I asked if we were really allowed to swing on them. He apparently said yes and my friends and I followed him, and later did the rest of the girls.
I saw five swinging ropes on the left side and five others on the opposite side. I immediately went on one on the right side and had the best time of my academic life for now.
As we swooped and swung on the ropes I felt like Miley Cyrus in 'Wrecking Ball', minus the sledge-hammer licking and the nudity. I managed to crash into people and once into a person's butt and got torturous headaches and sore muscles. Despite all of that, it was still the best time in my academic life, and the most painful (physically).
After school Yasmin and Christa came to my house to watch a famous horror movie, 'The Ring'. We sat on the huge leather couch with a super large blanket covering us up and beside a makeshift table which was actually a chair filled with junk food. I can say that the movie wasn't that good, but we still had a wicked time. I even screamed just because of the 'Warning' sign about copyright before the movie ever started (I'm just plain crazy and full of sensitivity). After the movie we baked cupcakes but Christa and Yasmin had to leave early because we made them late thus the movie.
That was my day! I'm sorry that you just had to go through useless info about my Halloween, but I just can't stop blogging about how fun and enjoyable it was. Sadly, I didn't take any pics throughout the whole day, but I can just remember it.
Thank you for reading!
See you again soon,
Marian

The Scary PE Session (22/10/13)
Bon Soir from NZ!
Our school athletics is coming up next month and my P.E teacher decided to train my class with the sport high jump. And spoiler alert: the embarrassment spirit visited me!
Well, when it was my first turn, the bar was low, so I didn't do bad. Second turn, I kind of hesitated for one millisecond before I jumped, and then I performed the common scissor jump. My friend overheard my classmates when they were talking about me and my awkward hesitation but she also noticed that someone stood up for me like he does for others. Awww!
But this is when spirit of embarrassment swoops in - my teacher raised the bar higher by 1 metre and when I ran, I knocked down the bar (it was a rubber band actually) and everybody started to chuckle! Urgh... The embarrassment spirit is the worst spirit ever (don't count Satan) and it affects me on an everyday basis. But that's not gonna stop me... I hopped off the cushion that catches you after you jump and walked off like nothing happened at all. My mind was roaring out "haters gonna hate!"
Guys, don't let embarrassment ruin your self-esteem. Just show what you've got and let the haters hate because they're never gonna be as good as you!

My 2 Week Holiday Review and First Day of Term 4 (14/10/13)
Hello hello MEDL!
The term 3 two week holiday for 2013 is finally over and I have just gone to school today for the first day of term 4. But I really don't want to explain how my day went first because I want to focus on my holiday for now.
I had a very boring two week holiday. I was always napping and trapping myself in my bedroom fixing up my blogs and room. But on the first day of the holidays I had an awesome start because I attended Yasmin's birthday party and it was so fun that I couldn't tame myself (just saying. The party didn't go THAT wild). On some days I cooked and baked and updated on Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest everyday (talk about boredom!)
That was a short paragraph about my holidays (I just can't stop mentioning the word 'holiday'. I'm sorry) but before we talk about my day, I haven't explained to you all how the school system in New Zealand (and probably some other countries) works: The school year is split into four terms (also known as a quarter or quadmester) and each term lasts about 9-12 weeks of school. Somehow, this year the length of the weeks per term shortened and became 9-10 weeks. I'm not exactly sure why they changed it. Maybe they respect pupil and gave them shorter weeks as a gift? Who knows...
Now finally onto my day! So my day went splendid despite the uniform change and I suddenly felt uncomfortable in my summer attire. I got to hang out with friends, start new modules in my subjects, and learn lots of new things. I'm excited for this term because later on we (my class and I) are gonna go to a beach and have a big day in at the end of this term! I'm excited already!

Now finally onto my day! So my day went splendid despite the uniform change and I suddenly felt uncomfortable in my summer attire. I got to hang out with friends, start new modules in my subjects, and learn lots of new things. I'm excited for this term because later on we (my class and I) are gonna go to a beach and have a big day in at the end of this term! I'm excited already!

♡ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE LOVELY MARINA DIAMANDIS ♡ (10/10/13)
Hello MEDL!
Today is my idol's birthday in the US and I would like to greet her ♡ Happy Birthday ♡ being one of her diamonds (fans). I truly love her and her music. The lyrics actually make sense because music nowadays is always about partying, drugs, alcohol, etc. I am listening to her album Electra Heart as I type and it just relaxes me. Ahh!
Anyway, another post will come out next Monday (Sunday if you live in the US) because I will start my last term of this year at school! So I'll see you all on Monday! Bye!

Term 3 Mission: COMPLETE (27/9/13)
Woohoo! Torture is over! But only for two weeks... And that means that I get to catch up on blogging and my reading and 'snoozing' (as one of my teachers would say). Last week on Electra and Marian I forgot to post TFWJM and I'm also planning to change the title on that segment because it's horrible and too long.
In any case, I have finally completed all of the things that I needed to do with school. Now it's the seniors' turn because they have to study for NCEA (this college exam you need to take if you want to go to university). Wish them luck for me guys because I have a lot of friends who are at their senior year of high school please!
There is not much to say about the last day of Term 3, guys. But all I think about is that there's only one term left of being a year seven and I'll miss this journey as it ends. I've met heaps of awesome people this year and have had accomplished several achievements so far. I promise not to get teary eyed like last year because this is just the beginning of a new journey for me and my fellow year sevens.
Let's get rid of the sappiness, shall we? Hehe! I hope you all have had a beautiful day today! Bye!

My very astonishing Barfday (13/9/13)
I celebrated my birthday on the Friday the 13th of the year. It wasn't actually scary as I would expect it to, but it was actually awesome! I had my favourite subjects on that day, including P.E and English (yes, I am an English nerd).
My day started off sorta bad because I showed up late to school and together with my form teacher. As I was walking to my classroom, I noticed that a couple of my classmates were spying outside. I knew that there was going to be a birthday surprise because my best friends were talking about it the other day. So I stopped in the middle of my tracks and pulled out my iPod to film my entrance into the room.
As I entered into the room my best friend Yasmin welcomed me in with a squeal-y birthday greeting and my other classmates followed, jumping and smiling. My other best friend Christa also greeted me with a hug and used her calm voice which rested my ears from all the commotion happening in the room. And as I went to my chair I saw the whiteboard filled with names and birthday greetings and I saw a list of good things about me which Christa wrote up on the right side of the whiteboard where there was heaps of space. It made me smile and I felt really lucky to celebrate my birthday on that day.
Later into the night, my friends and family and I were going to eat at a restaurant and it was delicious! We took a lot of photos (selfies, more like), ate some cake and food, opened up presents, and just enjoyed ourselves! Best birthday dinner yet!
As soon as the party was finished and we all went home, I was supremely exhausted and just wanted to skip my regular night time routine and just collapse onto my bed with my unclean face and teeth and in my dotty birthday dress. But I still had to drag myself into performing my boring routine. Aargh!
It actually didn't feel like a birthday to me. Instead, it felt like a happy-go-lucky day and everybody suddenly decided to scream in front of my face saying the same phrase, send me presents, and just went out for a random fancy dinner. It felt glamorous!

Emptying Out the Rubbish in the Rain (29/8/13)
At lunchtime today it was raining so my class and I had to go to our form classroom.
Yasmin, Christa, and I were eating and Yasmin decided to call Christa to prank our friend we like to call 'the Camper Guy', because he had a bag that was the same as a camper. Christa asked me if she wanted me to come along and she accepted.
The plan of the prank was to scream out the Camper Guy's name as we headed to the rubbish bin. Yasmin gave Christa and I some rubbish to throw away and after we said the Camper Guy's name, my form/English teacher noticed our loudness and she punished Christa and I to throw out everything from the rubbish bin to the outside rubbish bins. And as we got the the rubbish bins, I was laughing out loud as I saw Christa try to pick up a banana peel and throw it directly into the bin. I seeked for her permission to go back into the classroom and fetch Yasmin to help us. She agreed and I invited Yasmin out.
"What are you guys doing?"
"Trying to throw out the food scraps from the class bin to this bin." I answered.
"Why don't you just open up this rubbish bin and empty the whole lot of the class' one?" Yasmin suggested.
Christa and I followed Yasmin's commands and on our first attempt of opening up the outside rubbish bin was a fail but on the second attempt it was successful and we managed to empty out all of the trash in the class bin.
We finally finished and scattered back to the classroom. I'd make that a memory because it was so awkward!

Good Regular Day... (28/8/13)
Today was a normal school day for an average middle schooler. I went to maths, science, English, social studies, talked to my best friends and fellow pupil, blah, blah, blah...
I bet this was such a waste of your 16 seconds of your life here on the planet earth or how long you read this for. I'm sorry, but nothing special happened today.
Bye bye!

Rush! (27/9/13)
I'm going to skip the beginning of the day and write about what happened during and after interval (morning tea time).
My class and I were starting a new option today and it was French. My friends and I ended up late. It was no one's fault because we didn't know where it was.
We spent 15 minutes roaming around the school just to find the class. But someone, luckily, saved us. It was my special classmate's teacher aide. She told us where to go. It ended up to be in the opposite campus because our school has two main campuses, and I can't tell you because you might find out where I go to school.
So, again, we had to walk 15 minutes to the classroom. We missed 30 minutes just for walking. What a waste of energy!
As we walked into the unfamiliar classroom, my friends and I were sweating and tired to bits.
My French teacher, who was actually my neighbour's form teacher, growled at us, "why are you late for the first French lesson ever? Anyway, stand here and I'll sort out your seats."
So we followed her commands, but suddenly she told us to sit wherever we wanted.
I sat with Christa and Yasmin sat somewhere else because the seats next to us were already occupied.
I didn't last in the class for long because I had a confidential appointment somewhere. I missed out on two periods instead of one. But the next period, luckily, was a subject I didn't appreciate much. Yay!
Byeeeeee!

How to be a Heartbreaker (26/8/13)
This isn't actually about me, but it's about the class clown in my class. I can't name him because of privacy reasons. But let's just call him Bob, okay? So, as Health class was about to end today, Bob and his friends decided that he should ask all the girls out on a date in our class and also outside the class. He asked my best friend, Christa, out first. Of course, she rejected. Then, he asked my other best friend, Yasmin. She also did the same thing as Christa. He asked out the rest of the attractive girls in my class and they all said no, and by the time it was my turn, I immediately said that I had a boyfriend (which I don't, because I'm too young). Bob eventually said, "Oh, is it me?"
The class laughed. Even my best friends were too!
But then when class finished, it was time for lunch. And during that time, I told everyone who was in my class (except for the absentees today) that I didn't even have a boyfriend. Bob laughed and asked me again, "Can I go out with you then?"
I ignored and my friends and I just talked about something else and went to our final class as the day continued.
Bye bye!

5 Days Without Anything...
Hello everyone!
I haven't been blogging for FIVE DAYS STRAIGHT and I said that I would post everyday... What a klutz. I apologise. I should really manage my time and finish my chores and homework faster. But the good news is that later on I will post all of the unpublished entries. All tomorrow because I have to go to sleep and blah, blah, blah.
See you all!

Pretty Normal Day, I Guess... (23/8/13)
I cannot rate this day. Nothing interesting happened and I cannot recall that day. I'm sorry.
Bye bye, my Mariannettes!

Retreat! Let's Go to Retreat! (24/8/13)
I have done it again! I had forgotten to post yesterday and the day before's post. But this isn't the only one. I will do a series of my postponed posts tonight, and we can all become friends again! Yay!
Let's go!
I was looking forward to this day since last week. My teacher told my class and I that we were going on our first middle school/intermediate retreat. As soon as I got home that day I started to plan my outfit and organised what I needed to pack (which was only food and water, supposedly).
And when today came, I woke up with excitement. I haven't have a retreat since last year for the end of my elementary/primary years. And it was the perfect excuse to wear whatever you want, so I was pretty happy.
As soon as I got there I visited my old school with my best friends Christa and Yasmin since the venue was close to my old school. Christa and I went to the same school and Yasmin went to another so she felt a little bit awkward walking through the paths of our school.
Right after our little visit my class and another class started retreat and I'll just tell you what happened quickly so you don't have to read a bunch of words:
We played games called ice breakers, had some guest speakers talking about Faith and what they do in their everyday life, ate our lunch (of course), watched a couple of videos, got into groups to do activities, and during lunch Yasmin, Christa and I played Truth or Dare. I wanted to be dared myself so whenever I won or lost I would always be dared or asked what the truth was. It was interesting because I picked dares and they were all about saying 'hi' to the popular people.
Finally, the retreat ended and Yasmin, Christa and I went inside the school and visited the classrooms again and this time we went on new but huge swing that could fit up to six people. Yasmin was screaming her lungs out. I was also screaming, but not for the same reason and because I just wanted to scream.
That's it for this post and overall I had a day that I will never forget. Photos of Yasmin, Christa, and I are down below and bye bye, my Mariannettes!

Good Day (or evening) guys!
So I hope everyone enjoyed their day today and good luck!
Later on tonight I will post the delayed posts that I forgot to publish last week.
As I said on the Facebook page, the conditions of me posting everyday for two weeks are that I won't update on weekends and there will be postponed entries.
To start off with, I will post Thursday's first, Friday's second, and finally today's.
I will use present tense like today and future tense like tomorrow on behalf of that day.

What I Like (21/8/13)
Well, today was the same as yesterday (except that it was past tense). I played with my friends and talked to my crush. But we had this Science test which I told you in my last post was terribly hard and that was it, really.
But you should look forward to tomorrow's post because I have something exciting that will happen tomorrow...
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

What a Miracle! (20/8/13)
I apologise for not posting. I was actually revising for my Science test that was had today and it was terribly hard. I guess I didn't revise properly...
Other than that, I had an unexpected day. My old friends came back to me and invited me into their group like old times and my crush... well... he talked to me and he acted like I was his best friend. Both situations made me feel super special and happy. To me, friendships are very important because they're a source of happiness and without them, you would be nothing (except for family and life).
But I'll keep this post short because not much happened that day. So bye bye my Mariannettes!

Seems Swell.. (19/8/13)
It was a good day, except that all day I had such a stuffy nose and a swelled-up throat. It affected my memory and my ability to speak. So in class the only sounds I made were sniffing and mumbling and I would always get exhausted even though if I only spoke one word. But, thanks to Blogger and other social media sites, I can talk to others by typing. Yay!
Other than that, today was painless. It was just a regular school day. Nothing you can expect. Whatever. Science, English, Maths, Drama, meh...
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

So I am Shunned (18/8/13)
Hey everybody! I am back!
If you go on the Facebook page of this blog, you may have read that I have been going through some bumpy roads lately. That's the reason why I haven't been posting much on the blog, nor Electra and Marian (excluding TFWJM that happens every Friday) and you already know what happened to Marian the Anime and Vocaloid Lover (inactive).
So to make up to all the Mariannettes, I will be posting everyday for two weeks starting from Monday. But some posts will be pointless because it would mostly be everyday boring old stuff. This reminds me of the good old days when MEDL actually WAS MEDL because I posted everyday. But apart than that, MEDL is still the same. Let the good times roll! Hehe.
But, lots has been happening in my life that is not sad luckily. I have gained more friends and I find school easier. To me, social life is impeccably important because without friends and family, you wouldn't be able to achieve big things.
For example, Jane won the National Maths Competition and is entered into the internationals. She wouldn't be there only if her friends and family were supporting her. Helping her practise, yelling 'Go Jane!', and just loving her gratefully.
So I thank everybody for supporting me by reading my amateur blog posts and by even talking to me.

The Worst First Day Ever! (29/7/13)
I seriously rued this day. I hated it. 3 embarrassing moments, I didn't get to talk with my friends, and my classmates became boyfriend and girlfriend. They don't suit! I hate them together, just to be honest.
I apologise for not posting much in the holidays, all I got up to was no good. I was procrastinating to do my homework until the second week of the holidays. But I managed to get back on track and now all I have to worry about is my ICAS English test on Wednesday. I have posted about this last year and it's only if you wanna join or if you're in enrichment classes (which I'm not in by the way). Only two people are entering this competition, and it's me and the Queen Jock (I'm sorry, I can't help calling her Queen Jock. She's actually an all rounder, but I call her Queen Jock). I can't tell you her name, but all I'm revealing is that she's in my class. And that she's the queen of the jocks.
This is probably gonna be published like this because that's all I could say for now. Bye bye my Mariannettes!

Ice Skating 2013 (22/7/13)
Wheee! Today was so entertaining because my friends and I went ice skating at the portable ice skating rink!
Even though it was my fourth time, I still struggled to skate but luckily I didn't slip and fall. And this was my two friend's second and first time, and they were even better than me! I think they're more flexible than me because they're younger by 2 years.
The person (who was my mum's friend) who took us three to the ice skating rink also took us to the ice cream parlour across the road. I had cookie dough flavoured ice cream with hundreds and thousands, my friend, Hozanna, had strawberry ripple with hundreds and thousands; my other friend, Alliyah, had cookies and cream with nuts; and my mum's friend had a coffee-flavoured ice cream with a hard-chocolate dip.
We talked for a short but seemed like a long time while finishing up our delectable gelatos.
As we got up and ran to the car we drove off towards the close park one block away. We spent an hour running and playing around on the playground.
And then it was time to go home. It was probably the highlight of my 2-week school holidays.

MEDL Rewind (16/7/13)
So I was looking though several posts that I did last year, and using my powerful observation skills I can see some major differences about the posts today and the posts that I published last year.
I will do paragraphs of each difference. Let's go!
The Amount of Pictures that I post/School Photos
Last year I posted an awful amount of pictures of myself and even my school. As you may all know, I moved to an even bigger but stricter school. We students are not even allowed to bring cameras or phones, yet a tonne of pupil still manage to bring their devices (and in that group it includes me, but I use mine after/before school (my phone doesn't include a camera)) and sneak out taking selfies and calling and texting others during school time. As if I posted photos out of school, well, I would like to show you some now.
Playing Games
I miss doing and writing about this. It's so fun and I wish I can do it more. I always posted the things that me and Samantha I and E and Te Mania did. Samantha I and I had three handshakes, Jigwig was the game we always played at lunchtime and morning tea, no talking comps were always on, and for Golden Time our class would always have a game on. Don't worry about us four for now, we're still best friend with each other, even though if Samantha E is in Aussie and Sam I and Te Mania are in different classes from me.
Daily Posting
This is probably the biggest change of all. I made the wrong decision of posting everyday and that made my blog posts more boring because I had to think of something to write about each day. Blogging is one of my strong hobbies and strengths but it made my days worse. So that's why I made the decision to post whenever I had an interesting topic and some time to post, and I can say that I made the right decision.
Story Construction
Whenever I posted, I never had any drafts. I just went bongos and posted whatever went into my head. But now, I take a notebook and just wrote up a brainstorm and bam, I turned it into a blog post to update this blog. It was such a fabulous idea and I definitely don't regret it. I also learnt how to spell more and that improved my blog posts too.
That's about it! Without differences and improvements, everything would be boring and you'd never learn how to adapt into new situations.
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

But now, I take a notebook and just wrote up a brainstorm and bam, I turned it into a blog post to update this blog. It was such a fabulous idea and I definitely don't regret it. I also learnt how to spell more and that improved my blog posts too.
That's about it! Without differences and improvements, everything would be boring and you'd never learn how to adapt into new situations.
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

Goodbye, Term 2 (13/7/13)
Today is the first day of the Term 2 holidays. I really need a flashback... The term went too fast. I miss my classmates so much and the Spelling Bee that happened on Wednesday. This is the best term for me so far. Not just because of the fun and success that I have gained throughout this term, but also for the things that I have learnt.
And this is one of the things that I have learnt. And it had just happened recently. Or maybe a little too recently.
Let me tell you a little accident that happened yesterday...
As I walked down the classroom of my Graphics class to get stencils for my project, my classmate (who was also my classmate in my form class) said to me, "Hey best speller of the school!"
I replied, without even realising it, "Please don't call me that. It's embarrassing." and then I just walked off.
I heard him say "I'd like to be called that one day."
Guiltily, I turned back around and approached his desk.
"Hey, you can call me 'best speller of the school', but please call me Marian more."
I knew that Karma was gonna get me, and it hasn't gotten me back yet. I must be careful of what I'll do otherwise I'll get bad luck.
I wish I could just apologize to him now, but he doesn't know this blog and I can't talk to him now. But I wish at least his friends can see this and how desperate I am to apologize to him. But anyway, I'll do it now.
Dear Jude,
I'm sorry about yesterday. I have such a bad reputation when it comes to compliments and I have such low self-esteem. And this coming from a Virgo's mouth and thoughts, I would like it if you forgave me. I mean, it's the holidays now. We should be happy and relaxed.
To conclude this post, here is a piece of art of two girls swimming courtesy of Google Images.
I hope I don't cause any more chaos,
Marian

2nd Place Isn't THAT Bad (10/7/13)
Now, this is what I call interesting.
As I learnt that I was in the finals I started to scream, do gymnastics on my bed and stressed out immediately. But this was when it became better. Here's a review of my whole day in just one post.
While I was riding in a taxi I started getting the shivers. Was this gonna get worse or not? My thought was yes, since I didn't want to jinx it.
I finally went into the classroom for formtime and automatically, my teacher asked me, "Are you ready?"
"Yes, thank you Ms." I replied, even though she was married.
The rest of my classmates asked the same too.
"Are you ready, Marian? I'll help you train!" Offered one of my female classmates.
"Let's go!" I said excitedly.
We went into a corner and practised some words.
"Spell 'commandments', please."
"C-O-M-M-A-N-D-M-E-N-T-S!" I answered.
Then we spelt a couple of words until the bell rang and while in the middle of formtime my teacher spoke out "As you all know, Marian is going to compete in the Spelling Bee today at assembly".
I've heard that too much. For the past several days, she's been bragging about it. And I bet my classmates have been fed up with hearing the name "Marian" everyday.
Now, let's zoom into the assembly, shall we?
I was feeling nauseous and numb. I wasn't ready. But I had to do it for my own good. Spelling is the only strength that I can participate with in school. I'm too late for Netball and Hockey, Stage Challenge (dancing), and singing. But at least I am still with my fellow Writing Group.
It took a few items first then one of the deputy principals called up the finalists.
There were 4 of us (junior (me), sophomore, senior and teacher, who was apparently the head of faculty of English) and I was the 3rd contestant and my first word was "baccalaureate". Once I successfully spelled it I wowed the crowd. It was the loudest I've ever heard my school yell and cheer. My self-esteem went up by 99%, even I found my whole class (actually including the jocks! Aargh!) clapping and supporting me.
Later on the sophomore and the senior got eliminated and there was me versus the head of faculty of English.
"Contestant number 3, can you please spell 'Disingenuous'"
I struggled on this word. I missed the 's' next to the 'di'. So, to make my brain work, I paused for a little bit and failed. But I realised, failure is what makes you who you are. You can't succeed without failure.
Now back to the real story.
I ended up receiving a chocolate bar and later on in the last period I received a stationary set from the Head of Faculty of English.
This day was so stupendous and I thank the people who supported me and even went nervous and scared for me and to you Mariannettes for getting a taste of my spelling skills throughout posting posts every week.
Bye Bye Mariannettes!

Auckland Trip: Day Two (1/7/13)
Now, I am here in Rainbow Land. I forgot to write about my overnight trip in Auckland yesterday so now I'll do it.
As my family and I woke up to another adventurous and clear day, we ate breakfast (which was simply Dunkin Donuts). Man, that filled me up. I let my food digest then I hopped into the bath. It was a special time for me because at home we only have a shower.
After the rest of my family washed up we headed for the city, window shopping and hunting for a nice restaurant. After searching for a long time, we found a place to eat, which was in the Sky Tower. The name of the restaurant was Fortuna and it was a buffet. But my mum decided to walk around the city since Fortuna wasn't open yet for lunch. We went to a shop that sold special bread that my whole family loved. But out of the whole family, I was the member that loved their bread the most. I could taste the flavour and get hypnotized by even just thinking about it. Delicious!
Afterwards we went to a park that sadly didn't have playgrounds. Even though if I am growing, I still love playgrounds. But the good thing about the park was that it was peaceful and it had a huge fountain. We took a lot of pictures! (But these are just a couple).

For the moment I was waiting for finally came. We returned to the Sky Tower and ate at the buffet. I took lots of food, especially when it was dessert time. I picked up delectable chips with sauce, potato chips with sour cream dip, hot chocolate, ice cream, kumara and loads more food. Doesn't it just make your mouth water? Mine does... Geez...
Anyway, after the whole mouth-stuffing event, my family walked back to the hotel to retrieve our car with full and heavy stomachs.
When we reached the car, we went straight home. What a vacation! Best family vacation ever. I miss it too much now.
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

Auckland Trip: Day One (29/6/13)
My family and I like to go to Auckland for my dad's birthday. I think it turned into a ritual because we've been doing it for 2 years now. But I can now say that this one has been the busiest visit of all.
The first place we stopped at was Sylvia Park. We ate at umi restaurant and (do I really have to share what I ate?) ordered the lunch box while my family ordered the daily special lunchbox. It tingled my tastebuds because of the flavour and taste. I loved it.
We shopped and ran around the whole building until after stroke.
When my family and I arrived at the hotel we rested lazily on the beds and then when we got enough rest we went swimming in the coral blue water of the hotel's indoor pool, and even though it was 4ft deep, I still managed to swim to the bottom.
After I washed up and took a bath, the nightlights of the city were glowing like fireflies and my parents decided to go out with my sister and I and find some food to eat. We ended up at the foodcourt eating pizza and lasagna and japanese food. It was as delicious as the food we ate at Sylvia Park. Yum Yum.
And here I am now, writing this blog post sitting on one of the beds in the middle of our hotel room. What fun. Hehe!
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

Them Feels ;'( (26/6/13)
This is an experience I would like to share with you Mariannettes. It had happened to me today, and I hope I am not the only one who had this momentum before.
At Health class today there was a section in our Health books that read "Name a time when a friend let you down".
I immediately put my hand up and spoke quietly, holding back my tears "Mister, does it include a time that's actually happening now?"
My friend/classmate Harriet said "Is it me? Marian, I'm so sorry!" then she started to turn red and worried.
"You're not her friend! You're just in the same class as Marian!" My boy classmates exclaimed loudly.
"Hehe, of course it's not you, Harriet. You're still my loyal and fabulous friend though." I said trying to calm her down.
After all of the sort-of commotion, my teacher finally answered my answer. "Yes Marian. It can happen during now."
Everybody calmed down and started writing while my tears ran rapidly down my face onto my neck. I sniffed gently and covered my face so nobody ever suspected that I was crying, because I am the crybaby of the class. I'm never satisfied with my average life. It's annoying. I think it's got something to do with mood swings.
Anyway, at the end of the lesson Harriet asked me what was happening with me and my friend and who it was. The tears came back and I said "Samantha. Samantha Espinosa, my best friend. She left New Zealand and now I'm like a bundle of dirt. It wasn't her fault or my fault, it was nobody's fault. Her grandmother grew sick and her mum picked her up to live in Australia while her grandmother was healing herself. I miss her so much, but it still hurts me and affects my life severely."
It was interval and I sat with Christa and Yasmin, my new best friends. I felt much better throughout today and here I am now, listening to Marina and the Diamonds and sitting down writing and editing this post for MEDL.
Lots of you have felt the pain of losing a friend, wait, I mean, everybody has! And I am so glad to share that with you all Mariannettes. Bye for now!

Mufti Day Part 2 (21/6/13)
It was such an impeccably superb day because it was my intermediate school's first ever Mufti Day of the year. At my school I got told that we were not gonna have much mufti days every year, which made me feel really down. But luckily today was a mufti day, which made me light up my mood.
But Mufti Day was not the same as last years (and it wasn't much fun too). Instead, we still had to switch classes from room to room and this is intermediate/high school and last year was primary school, where you didn't have to switch classes everywhere. But we have changes...
I didn't take a photo of my outfit, but I'll describe it in text:
For my top I layered a purple long-sleeved shirt with a white collar alongside a white jumper that has a picture of two Russian dolls and above it it says "the love within" in sophisticated writing. And for my bottom I wore navy blue skinny jeans that unusually made my butt look bigger. And my shoes were just black below the knee boots. I thought that my outfit needed more so I added in a blue scarf and my famous rainbow bracelet and green beaded anklet given to me by Samantha. Gosh, I miss her so much.
To conclude this post, I can describe the day with one word. And that word is Blissful.
Bye bye my Mariannettes!

I'm a Turtle, not a Bee (14/6/13)
Yesterday there was a spelling bee at my school and I participated and I, unexpectedly, won! I bet a year eight who also did magnificently at spelling as well. I never would think that I would win over somebody a grade older than me. I eventually won a mini dictionary/thesaurus and a chocolate bar. The Spelling Bee was at lunchtime and after that we had English. When I told my teacher she shook my hand and, of course, congratulated me. My class also did the same and then after school everybody mimicked them. 'Til this day, everybody is still congratulating me, especially my parents, who are still calling me "Ate Maui the Champion";
meaning Ate as a big sister and Maui as my nickname.
Bye bye my Marianettes!

1 FULL YEAR OF MARIAN'S EVERYDAY LIFE! (12/6/13)
I've gotta keep calm for this post, but I can't. IT'S BEEN ONE FULL YEAR OF THIS MARIAN'S EVERYDAY LIFE BLOG! This blog seemed like I just made it 2 weeks ago. Time flies too fast. I need some time to develop into a better person, to be honest. But other than that, it's been an outstanding and interesting journey as I posted my daily adventures of my wicked life. Even though there are not much people reading my blog, I still appreciate it and love the people who actually read my blog. From now on, I will call you my Marianettes (and no, you are not named after the puppets, you are named after my blog readers).
To finish off this post, I would like to say another thank you for actually reading the blog of a young year seven who dreams to become the next J.K Rowling.
Here's my advice to my Marianettes: Save the best for last, so you can enjoy life at it's best.
Thank you for the FINAL time,
Marian Yao

MEDL 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TOMORROW! (11/6/13)
Tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of the Marian's Everyday Life blog! My apologies for not posting much nowadays... I don't exactly know why I'm not posting... Maybe I need a reality check...
Other than that, I'll try my very best to keep all of my blogs updated. Pretty promise.

What a Cool Day! (5/6/13)
Today was such a good day despite that I was given a Religious Ed and Science test. Both were pretty easy! We had drama today too and I actually made my class laugh! That boosted my self-esteem by... Hm... probably by 80%! Not that much to me, but it's efficient enough to make me happy. *Insert smiley face here*.
What has happened recently apart from that? Last Thursday I participated along with the other representatives from my school for LitQuiz that was held in Tauranga Intermediate school. Not far away from where I live that much. LitQuiz is a questionnaire about books. Others may think it's boring, but I find it fascinating that I am a bookworm and love literature. Even though we came near last, it was such an awesome experience. I wasn't there just to compete, but to also enjoy it and to also build up my book knowledge. I can join again next year since I am a Year 7 and Year 8s can join too.
I'm on a roll now! Bye!

ARMAGEDDON! (25/5/13)
Yesterday my family and I went to Hamilton for Armageddon! (actually, later I was going to split up with my family and go to Armageddon with my friends.) A portion of you would be thinking as you read this post, what is Armageddon? Firstly, it is not a movie. It's a convention for gamers, otakus, die-hard movie/show fans, people with an artistic flaw and an amazing sense of geekiness..
When my family and I rode down the roads of Hamilton in our grey Odyssey, our first stop was McDonalds to have our lunch since we didn't eat any of our snacks in the car. We all ordered the usual; dad with McGrilled, mum craving the Fillet-O-Fish burger, my sister with her Happy Meal of chicken nuggets (she's younger than me, so that's normal of her), and finally me, with the unhealthy choice of the famous cheeseburger combo. Sigh. But to make me more hungry, dad ordered two apple pies, which mum and dad ate later instead of me and mum.
After eating the scrumptious meal inside of our car, my parents dropped me off at the center where Armageddon was currently being held. Outside it didn't take me even a minute to find my friends who were looking and guiding after me.
Later on after we gave our tickets to the man, the convention was flooded with cosplayers. Princess Peach, Ghostbusters, and even a dalek! (of course there was a person inside controlling it.) I went around and examined the stalls and found that 97% of them were selling cosplay costumes and anime merchendise. And as I was looking around I saw Janet Varney and Meagan Smith. It actually brightened my day to even only get a glimpse of them both.
I bought Fairy Tail's Lucy Heartfilia's Leo celestial key and lots of American food like Lucky Charms cereal, Ring pop, PopTarts and Jelly Belly confectionery. Man, I can now say that I was on a sugar rush! I didn't have much money given to me but still managed to keep a biggish-small quantity of money.
When we concluded my parents picked me up and we went back to our home tired and hazy after our big trip which ate our time and money. Phew!

Permanently Deleted (18/5/13)
Since I absolutely have nothing to post about on my World of Turtles blog, I will delete it. Samantha E doesn't know about it but she never posts in it and I think she also forgot about it. But I'll make sure to message her online, since she lives in Australia and not in New Zealand anymore. *Teardrop* *sniff*.
So goodbye World of Turtles! May we remember you still even if you're deceased.

Nothing, really (17/5/13)
I have nothing to post about that's happening lately but I want to make sure this blog will be still active every week.
Like I said, I will post 2-3 times a week, but I have failed. I usually post once a week, which is honestly no enough. Grr.
But I can tell you what's happening with my school life from the beginning of the term. We had a day to celebrate the day when the school was first founded. Half of the events there were not really eye-catching but there was a haunted house and I kept on squealing. But at the end of the day there was a concert that had eating competitions and singers like Cameron Rota (who controls the girls with his cuteness) and Sam Yeoward (who's from our school) from The X Factor New Zealand.
Blah blah blah. Let's skip to today.
P.E was a blast. We played the annoying dodgeball. I was screaming uncontrollably because I kept on falling and getting hit. Terrible, but so entertaining.
But the main point of today was that we didn't have math! Weeeee!
I'm on the literacy side and maths is my worst enemy. I really hate it.
OKAY END OF POST! BYE!

Revenge (6/5/13)
Term 1's sibling, Term 2, has now performed revenge on all students in the whole entire New Zealand.
Like every other student, I HATE FIRST DAYS. But I rethink that and if there were no first days, how would you go to school? Everything has to have a fresh beginning. Think of a book.
The question is, is it possible to make a second school day without a first day? Now this sounds coco loco.
Like every other first day, I was alone, (Well, a little bit.) hungry, tired, lazy, and forgetful that I was getting bags under my eyes (even though I do have them naturally) but luckily teachers didn't realize.
But overall, the rest of the day went normal. Going to school, study, going home. Simple as that. Bada bing bada boom. Cha ching. (whoops. You say that when you get money.)
Bye.

Haircut! (1/5/13)
Yesterday I have gotten a haircut! And I really look different that I don't want to show you all. Not because I think I'm sooo ugly like other girls (and I also think I'm not beautiful) but I look like Marian Yao, amateur blogger, future author/baker, and just a normal 11 year old for goodness sake.
Put that topic aside! My hair is trimmed up to my shoulders and is still black (of course) and is split-end free! Finally!
Here are some people who rock this haircut:

Go Away Term 1, I don't like you (19/4/13)
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT. It's been so annoying about going to school, do work and go home. And weekends are actually not enough for me to feel satisfied atleast.
IT'S THE HOLIDAYS DING DONG! Of course there are positives and negatives about this.
POSITIVE/S:
Do anything you want, really
NEGATIVE/S:
Play the game of forever aloneness (unless you have phones or social networks)
Do you see the clear picture now? Be honest please.
Just like what I said on my last blog entry I promise to update probably all of my blogs.
But there would be a problem with Marian the Anime and Vocaloid Lover. Late last year I quitted to watch anime or listen to vocaloid. But guess what? I've been watching 5 Centimetres per Second and I'm still a big fan of Korra and Avatar the Last Airbender! (Thanks Dad for encouraging me to watch it!) So watch out for more posts!

Final Week! (14/4/13)
This week is the final week of school so I might not post much because I'm making the final touches in my schoolwork and presentations. I really can't wait 'til the holidays, but I'm really gonna miss my friends, especially my best friend overseas now. Wish me luck for being forever alone this week and the beginning of term 2! Haha
Over the holidays I won't be doing much, so get ready for boring posts about home!
I will keep this and the SNNBNB blog active over the two weeks. Pretty promise.

Just Kidding! (2/4/13)
Dear bloggers,
APRIL FOOLS! Yesterday I posted a blog entry about deleting all of my blogs. Did't you guys check the date? You could've realized that it was April Fools day.
Why would I delete all of my blogs? Blogging is important to me and helps me to become a better writer. I will keep my blogs, but World of Turtles and Marian the Anime and Vocaloid Lover will be inactive. I was lying about talking to Samantha too. We have been chatting, but rarely. She told me that she has made new friends, but she promised that I'm still her bestfriend and I promised the same thing. But don't worry about me, I have made new friends too!
Anyway, I hope you guys had a prankful and wacko April Fools day.
From,
Marian

The Ultimate Race to Unicorn Island! (27/3/13)
I regret this day, at 8:55 am, I had to race against these other people to find our destiny!
RECOUNT TIME!
I will put my blog entry in a recount form. The characters are based on real people.
WARNING: MAY CAUSE DIZZINESS AND LAZINESS (if already lazy and dizzy, nothing will do to effect you).
As Mr Snuffley cut the starting rope, everyone raced like if it were the Hunger Games. Obviously, I was right behind because I did my best to conserve my energy. My friends, of course, were slower. But I thought that was enough.
Anyway, I carried on running to find my true destiny, and I ran like how I usually run away from my crush after having an awkward conversation with him.
There was a part on running track where a stream was. We were forced to run through the shallow stream and my shoes and shorts were terribly abused with green water (ew) that we nearly vomited (just kidding (mwahaha)). As we performed a u-turn we were back to the swampy water again. If I were my shoes and shorts, I would kick my whole entire body (if I could).
As I did my final lap I crossed the finish line (about time missy) and got a free apple. (I'm not sure why adults were handing out free apples. We could've paid for them, gosh) I was the 68th person to finish. And then I was performing my scary and evil laugh as my friends crossed the finish line. Poor friends.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okay! That's finished! How'd you like that? Hah? That was a good read, wasn't it? Be honest.
Farewell from Natalie Kinly (Marian).
RECOUNT TIME!

WARNING: MAY CAUSE DIZZINESS AND LAZINESS (if already lazy and dizzy, nothing will do to effect you).
As Mr Snuffley cut the starting rope, everyone raced like if it were the Hunger Games. Obviously, I was right behind because I did my best to conserve my energy. My friends, of course, were slower. But I thought that was enough.
Anyway, I carried on running to find my true destiny, and I ran like how I usually run away from my crush after having an awkward conversation with him.
There was a part on running track where a stream was. We were forced to run through the shallow stream and my shoes and shorts were terribly abused with green water (ew) that we nearly vomited (just kidding (mwahaha)). As we performed a u-turn we were back to the swampy water again. If I were my shoes and shorts, I would kick my whole entire body (if I could).
As I did my final lap I crossed the finish line (about time missy) and got a free apple. (I'm not sure why adults were handing out free apples. We could've paid for them, gosh) I was the 68th person to finish. And then I was performing my scary and evil laugh as my friends crossed the finish line. Poor friends.

Okay! That's finished! How'd you like that? Hah? That was a good read, wasn't it? Be honest.
Farewell from Natalie Kinly (Marian).

Wall Rennovation (22/3/13)
I have changed my bedroom walls. I know you haven't seen my old ones yet, but I have changed them.
It's not all of my walls, but it is 97% of it. The 3% left is full of awards from my primary years (I haven't won any awards at my new school!) and me wearing my school uniform. I shan't show you that.
You have realised that half of the pictures has Hello Kitty in it. I am a die-hard fan of her, and so is my mother. Father had bought the keychain holder from Japan and the rest was given to me for free.
There. My room.
Okay, Hasta La Vista!

My art corner. I haven't done something creative lately. |
My To-Do List and Hello Kitty Notepad |
Key Holder (although I use it for holding my headband and planner up) |
My dream catcher, perfectly above my bed |
My posters (fictional characters) |
My posters (real life people (personally, I'm not a fan of Tay-Tay Swiftie but I just like to collect any kind of posters) |
