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!

♡ 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! 

The Lovely Marina and the Diamonds (no, she is a solo artist. The 'Diamonds' are her fans).


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!
