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!
