Grey Days

Today the weather seemed to reflect my mood. It started of violently windy, which wasn't much of a reflection. However after I dragged myself out of bed at around midday, then the skies opened and it started to pour down with rain. That is what I was feeling. In just under two weeks I get to see the specialist in Auckland, but before this meeting I have to some study for my final exam which is Music. So I get to study hard on Italian music terms, and have to study some Musical Analysis. My aural skills are quite satisfactory enough according to my teacher then I can finally forget my exams and not have to worry until my results arrive.

English

I have my english exam this afternoon and I am absolutely freaking out. I've done a load of study but I still don't know if I'm ready yet. I'm already feeling the pressure. I have had to study things such as as Unfamiliar Texts, War Poetry and Films.

--------half a day passes----------

Well that exam wasn't so painful. I found that some of the questions were very similar to what I has studied so I had a good time in the exam. After I was interrogated by my English Teacher, he said that because I was so confident, I would be "Set up to fail" How Encouraging

1st Exam

I had my first exam this morning, Media Studies. It took me a long while to consider myself ready for this exam. In a final act of desperation I hurriedly read over my notes and model answers at the breakfast table. I anxiously watched the time on the stove and at 8:40 I finally left. Upon arriving at my exam I discovered several things

• I was the only one from my Media Studies Class in the Exam
• I wasn't in the Hall
• I had to share the classroom I was in, with the Year 13 Physics Exam

I must admit I was a little disappointed with my fellow class members.

Now that my first exam is over, Mum has given me the afternoon off so I can do a little relaxation before studying for my second exam which is english. So I have all of tomorrow to study for english, which is an afternoon examl.

Updates...Yay

Its been a while since I last posted and I am deeply ashamed of myself. School is finally finished for the Senior Classes and we had senior prizegiving last night and I myself recieved two prizes. I got First Place in Year 12 Media Studies and the Breezmere Prize for Services To Music. The only other year 12 to recieve a special prize was a girl in my Chem class. It was a truly fantastic night and I took a heap of pictures. The only let down was when the batteries in my camera died. It was an emotional night for some, teachers including. The classs of 2006 is sorry to leave our fine school. We also farewelled a few of the teaching staff who will be sorely missed. Now to get knuckled down and study for my first exam, which incidentally is Media Studies.

Back Envy

Today I discovered I may have a condition previously unknown to man. I think it is called Back Envy. Whenever I see someone with a straight back/spine I am incredibly jealous.
Today I finally got a letter from Starship Childrens Hospital confirming an appointment so I can finally get another professional opinion on the fate of my spine. Apparently surgery is going to be a final option. Its quite scary but also really neat at the same time.
So it will now be me and my Back Envy until I finish my exams.

Focus Change

i am going to change the main focus of my blog. For the time being, I am going to chronicle the incredible saga of my Scoliosis. My latest specialist appointment has revealed that recieving an operation/surgical treatment is by far the best option and will eliminate any further back problems including pain. My specialist from Tauranga asked if we had heard from the specialist surgeon in Auckland, he was very surprised that we hadn't. So sometime in the next few weeks we should expect to hear from him. Its all very exciting. And in other news my Aunt who also keeps a blog came and visited us for a few days. It was great to catch up with her because it seems that whenever she visits i am somewhere else and miss her totally. Today she left to go to her next destination; Wellington

Weekends a Coming

Friday is here. This afternoon I am seeing my Tauranga specialist regarding my spine. And tomorrow is gonna be the best day, because my aunt is coming up to visit. I haven't seen her for about four years becuase everytime she comes and visits, Im at National Youth Drama School.
