Hey there dudes and dudettes!
Well I am really really excited, it is almost 2009! Hurray!!!! I probably won't be able to write a post tomorrow as we are leaving early to go up to my Uncle's house.
So my next post will offically be on the 1st of January 2009!!! How awesome is that????
I am excited about 2009, grade 9 is coming!!!! That is awesome because I get to do: Drama, Music and History!! How cool is that????
Sorry about all the punctuation but I am that excited about 2009!!!!!
Well I didn't get any comments on my last post so I am assuming that some of you guys aren't so open about homosexuals and bisexuals? Ah well, don't stress over it....I'll win you over sometime soon, just joking, what you want to believe is your choice.
Now, what can I talk about??? Well I am reading a totally awesome book at the moment called 'Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants' it is all about friendship and is very touching.
In case I haven't told you guys this already I am eternally grateful to all my friends for being....well for being my friends! I love you all so much and you have all helped to shape me into what I am today, which is something good I hope!
So, here's the deal:
On the 1st of January I will write a post and on it I will tell you my New Year's Resolutions. Then my friends you can help me keep them! Ooh, what fun! But no pinching/tickling/anything else like that to try to get me to keep them...be gentle!
Well onto a totally different topic I am lovesick at the moment....You know how sometimes you just start wishing you had someone special or that you would have a majorly romantic moment...You know what I mean, you meet someone's eyes and everything just clicks into place.....That sort of thing. Well that's the way I am at the moment, but the problem is everytime I try to see my perfect guy his face is blank, I don't see anyone I know....It's driving me nuts!
Ah well, guys aren't everything right? Right? RIGHT?????????????????????????
Na, it's cool, I know they aren't everything....I would much rather get good grades and have awesome friends than have the perfect boyfriend.
Wait a moment, I already have the most awesome fantastic wonderful friends in the world, so that's ticked off my list......Now I just have to look after my friends and my grades in the new year and I'll be all set!
Anyway on a completely different topic I am now really really worried about my friend, Tristan, he hasn't contacted me or any of my other friends in 7/8 days, this is really unusual for him because usually he contacts either me or my friend Katarina every two days. I called his mobile but he didn't answer so I left him a voicemail message which he still hasn't returned.
Tristan, if you are reading this please call me or Katarina because I am really worried about you, I hope everything's ok, I hope you're ok, same with your family. Please just contact us, we are really worried about you. Hope you aren't sick or have any broken bones after Christmas. Please please please contact me, I miss you.
Anyway, that's my little message to Tristan....It's starting to worry me, though he is probably just mucking around with his family or visiting his grandparents or something. But still, you know, there's that little bit of worry in my mind.
But anyway, hope you guys manage to stay up till midnight tomorrow night....I sure will be!!!!! I can't wait, it's going to be awesome. Though what usually happens is I stay up till midnight and then shout out "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" and then I fall asleep almost straight away!! That's about the extent of my partying, it works for me anyway. Usually I'm asleep by 9:30 so midnight is really really really late for me...Which means I get ultra excited for the few days before New Year's Eve.
Now I have to go because I have people pestering me to hurry up and finish this post.
Hope you have an awesome New Year's Eve and I will speak to you in 2009....Just this once I am going to sign off differently (Sorry Lauren, this requires using your word!)
'Dios,
Jess! (Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited about 2009!!!!)

Great great great great great great great day!
Hey there guys and girls!
Well I had an awesome day today...I went to Southbank with Kitty and Ash and that was really really cool.
We went swimming, made sandcastles (it's a little kid thing but it's actually really fun!) then Kitty and I buried Ash and made her look like a mermaid....it actually looked really good! I was impressed at our artisitic ability!
We also had sand fights, but we were very careful not to hit other people....Ash and Kitty got more sand on them than I did because I didn't chase after them with sand (that's a perk of being a goody goody!)
We had donuts and other junk for lunch which was really cool. Then we swam some more and caught the bus to Garden City to do some shopping. Everything is really expensive at the moment, how annoying!
But anyways I brought this really cute skirt that is all flowery and summery, just like me! (I hope!)
I also brought two packets of six bracelets, all proceeds going to 'Reach Out' which is a youth organisation. I got four of them and gave four to both Kitty and Ash. Two of them say words and the other two are just coloured bands.
My two word ones say: Strength and the other one says Respect.
I am glad I got those two words because those are two things that are very important to me. I believe that all people deserve Respect, no matter what. You also must have Respect for yourself and your opinons.
I believe that Strength is very important took. I don't think that anyone is born with Strength, I believe that it you grow strength, the strength to cope with anything life throws at you. I also believe that you need strength to help your friends and loved ones when things get tough for them. It can be hard trying to be a tower of strength, you need strength to be able to remain optimistic no matter what.
Hopefully I possess both those things! Respect and Strength, respect and strength, respect and strength.
After shopping we took the bus home so I got home at 4:30pm.....I've just been relaxing but now I'm ready to write!
Anyway, just surfing the web tonight I realised something. So many people have extremely narrow minds. I am going to lay down a few facts right now!
1. Homosexuals/bisexuals are not freaks
2. Being either homosexual or bisexual does not make a person bad or cruel
3. Homosexuals and bisexuals deserve respect just like straight people
4. Homosexuality and bisexuality have been traced back to DNA, so stop critcising homosexuals and bisexuals....They didn't do anything wrong!
5. Religion is a choice
6. People should not be allowed to try to convert people
7. Tolerance is the main thing taught in all religions but does anyone practise it?
That's about all the points I have to say at the moment, but I hope that makes you think!
I love you all but now I have to go have dinner.

Santa Claus Has Come To Town!
Hi there faithful blog followers!
Well I haven't written for ages! It's been a great last four days, Christmas has been come and gone! We now have to wait a whole another year to spend time with our families and.....who could forget? PRESENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know about you guys but I had a brilliant Christmas! I spent it with my grandparents up in Bundaberg. We were there with my parents, brother and uncle.
It was a small group compared to last year, when we had about 24 people at each meal (all family!)
We left home at 3:30pm on Christmas Eve and arrived at my grandparents' house at approximately 8:30pm that night. So nothing much happened that night except we settled in. We also found out that the Christmas Day church service started at 7:30am! Well after that startling news we decided to hit the sack, we needed all the sleep we could get!
I got the best room which was Grandma's study while Nick was stuck in with my uncle in the front bedroom where the traffic woke you promptly each morning at 3:30am. Ha! Sucked in brother!
Well the next day was CHRISTMAS DAY of course! I woke up early and found my Christmas stocking hanging on my cupboard door. It was absolutely full! Brilliant! Although I don't believe in Santa Claus and have told my parents so, they still fill my stocking as though Santa Claus has actually come, they are great parents that way!
I opened my stocking and found a beautiful white leather handbag, a 2009 Horse calender (I love horses) and a bar of dream chocolate!
Then it was time to get dressed in my Christmas dress and have a rushed breakfast before departing to church.
It was a horrible service, full of racist and sexist remarks, however that is what you get for having my grandfather as the pastor.
It was an agonizing two hours but I am used to it. Joy!
Though when we got home everything certainly brightened up! All of us worked together and fixed a delcious brunch (chicken, lollies, chocolate, biscuits, dip etc. etc.)
Once we had eaten that out on the patio near the Christmas Tree we got to the real business of the morning, opening presents! I got to be Santa and hand out the presents!
I got:
A hairclip and some cocount ice (Grandma and Grandpa)
A book and a Jay Jays gift card (Uncle Trevor)
A Paramore cd (Nick)
A Simpsons dvd (Mum & Dad)
A Princess Diaries book (Mum & Dad)
A MOBILE PHONE (Mum & Dad)
I got the best mobile phone in the world!!!!!! Well to me anyway, it is a red Motorola RAZR V3i, look it up on google images if you want to know what it looks like!
Anyways, then in the afternoon everyone had naps except for me (even the dog was asleep!) I mostly wrote my story, played with my mobile phone and made a video so I can show all my friends what the house looks like.
Finally everyone woke up and Dad, Mum, Nick, Uncle Trevor and I went to the beach, it was awesome! The water was absolutely beautiful! The beach was almost deserted when we got in but by the time we got out it was packed!!! Though still gorgeous! We went to the Innes Park beach if anyone wants to know.
Then we had Christmas Dinner with all the trimmings and that was really nice.
So, on to Boxing Day which happens to be my Grandad's birthday.....We had breakfast and then Uncle Trevor and I went to the Boxing Day sales so he could get some shirts that were on sale.
However all the shops were closed! Pretty weird considering that the catalogues for those stores had advertised BOXING DAY SALES!!!!!!!! So we just went to Maccas and then went home.
The day was pretty fun and we went to the beach yet again which was awesome!!!!
That night we went to Sizzler's to celebrate Grandad's birthday and that was really really fun! The outfit I wore was:
Three quarter black tailored pants
A black high necked top with white trim
And
Black high heels
I think that this outfit would make awesome date outfit if it were a night-time date....
Anyways the next day (aka today) we ate an early breakfast and came home....
I am absolutely exhausted!!! I think I need a massive sleep before New Year's Eve... I am excited already about 2009, I think it holds promise!
Anyways, hope you guys had just as fun a Christmas as I did!
TTYL,
Jess
P.S: I know the date above this blog says that it is the 26th of December but it is really the 27th! It just says that because the time is really really stuffed up!

Everything is Perfect for Christmas
Hey there,
Well this may be the last post for a while and it will probably be a short one. There won't be any internet in Bundaberg which is where I will be from tomorrow until the 27th. We don't leave until 3:30 tomorrow afternoon (Christmas Eve) but I will be busy cooking all day with Mum, we are cooking a chicken to take for Christmas Day and meringues and stuff like that, it is going to be awesome!
I just want to let all you guys know that everything has been sorted out, I am very happy at the moment because I know now that ALL my friends are awesome, every single one of them, even the boy who caused me all this trouble.
He is truly sweet and has probably been reading my blog because he sent me a gorgeous apology which was his own personal version of the apology I wrote in my blog yesterday!
I guess everything has been worked out ready for Christmas, all my friends are the best and I am very very happy. I am looking forward to spending Christmas with my family and then spending some time just relaxing before coming back home.
After I come home everything is going to be busy before 2009 arrives, I am planning heaps of cool activities for me now that I have recovered from my first year of High School.
I have decided that I am going to do some New Year's Resolutions on New Year's Eve. I have always thought that this was a stupid tradition, I mean you never keep your resolutions anyway. But I have now realised that this tradition isn't silly, it's not about actually achieving your goals (though it's good if you do!) it's actually about acknowledging stuff you can improve on and making a promise to yourself that you will at least try to improve.
Well my promises (which I haven't figured out yet) are going to be done in front of all my friends. How will I do this? Well I will post my New Year's Resolutions on this blog. Then you can all help me to achieve them!
I am very excited about Christmas but I am also very tired, I don't know how much sleep I will get tomorrow night. I think I will be too excited! So I had better go to bed now.
If I don't talk to you guys until after Christmas I have five words to say to you guys:
MERRY CHRISTMAS HO HO HO!
And I have another four words for all my friends out there:
I LOVE YOU ALL!
Thanks for your wonderful response to my blog this year....I am truly in debt to all of you.
TTYL,
Jess.
Special shout-out to my friends: Kitty, Kit-Kat, Ash, Amy, Jen, Lauren, Morgan, Tristan and anyone else I may have missed.....You know how you are!! I love you all!
MERRY CHRISTMAS ONCE AGAIN!

Why are things not resolved?
Hello my little friends,
Well the title of this post says it all, why are things not resolved?
This problem is ongoing I want things to be better right now! But I don't know what to do, I have receieved so many emails from the boy in question but I do not know how to reply. So I have come to the conclusion that I am not going to reply to his emails until he tells me what I want to hear.
Perhaps you are wondering what that is? Well, it doesn't have to be these exact words it just has to have the feeling of sincerity.
I want to know that I am not being taken for granted, I want to know that he can support me. He's not a boyfriend, he's just a friend but I expect support from my friends. I expect them to give me everything I give them.
Here's my idea of the perfect apology, no matter what the crime is...This is what has to be done to win me back.
"Jess, I know what I did was wrong. It was terrible of me, I realise now exactly how special you are to me. Without your friendship/love I feel lost and alone. I need to know that you forgive me. I will do anything in my power to make amends for my mistake. I will even build a time machine to go back and solve the problem so none of this unpleasantness would ever occur. I hope that everything can go back to normal between us."
There that's the gist of it. I would love it if they made it really personal, I don't know. People are complicated, fake apologies are stupid same with apologies where you say you are sorry and then blame the other person for everything. You would be better off not apologising at all.
Anyways that's my big grumble. I just want things to be resolved but I'm not going to back down, definitely not. I remember my rant from last night....GIRL POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not backing down. I'm not going to let anyone boss me around. I'm not going to solve problems for someone if they take me for granted. I want to be needed but I also want people to help me as well! I want support and I want kindness....I want....I don't know what I want.
But I guess the one thing i do want is a sincere apology. Oh well, maybe it'll come tomorrow.
At least Christmas is coming, that'll cheer me up. And Kitty cheers me up too, I'm so glad we are friends! Our theme song is now 'We Are Family!'
I especially love the line that goes...'I've got all my sisters with me' except we can change it to 'I've got my sister with me!' We stick by each other through thick and thin and give each other all our support. Ash is another one of my great friends same with Amy and Lauren and Jen and.....I'm going to run out of room if I list all my great friends!!!!!!! I have too many!!!
After my sad post last night I got bombarded with emails and messages comforting me, I have the greatest friends in the world. I love you all, Kitty, Ash, Lauren, Amy, Jen....Everyone!!!!!!!! Thank you all for your love and support this year, I don't know where I'd be without you all, probably down a hole rocking back and forth and sucking my thumb!
I love you all.
TTYL,
Jess.

Girl Power!!!
Hi there everyone,
Well I am in a very different mood at the moment. It's rather a sad mood, because I have been hurt by one of my friends. It shouldn't be this way so close to Christmas but I guess that's the way life goes.
I don't want to write much of my day-to-day life at the moment but rather I want to write about something that I feel is very important, plus my day-to-day life is rather boring at the moment.
You are probably all wondering what I want to write about, well it is something I feel very strongly about at the moment....Girl Power. I want to talk about making sure that us girls aren't taken for granted by guys...and not just boyfriends either. Any guys out there, Dads, Grandads, friends, cousins, uncles. Anyone.
All this stems from something going on in my life at the moment. This friend problem, the friend who hurt me is a boy. Me and another friend (a girl) are working together to put up a united front to this friend and tell him that we won't be pushed around and taken for granted.
This boy called me a teachers pet. Now that doesn't sound like a big thing but to me it is as bad as being called any other name. To me a teachers pet represents everything I don't want to be. A suck-up, a lazy little insincere idiot.
I told this boy to stop calling me that but he just continued to mock me over and over again even when I shouted at him to stop it and told him that I would block him (this was on Facebook) or kill him m(that's how mad I was)
He mocked me more not taking me seriously at all. So I blocked him and sent him an email explaining how hurt I was and that I would only consider becoming his friend again if he apologised sincerely.
Well he sent me back a very insincere email where he said that he knew now that I was not a friend to be mocked. Well that really annoyed me because he should know that I can take a joke very well even if it's against myself but that when I say stop I mean stop. So I sent him back an email saying that I wouldn't accept that apology and that he shouldn't take me for granted etc. etc. Also my other friend said that the boy had been taking out his anger on her so I told him (by email) that we wouldn't be taken for granted and that if he continued to take out his anger on a girl who had only ever offered us both support than he stood to lose her too!
So girls stand up and let people know that you won't be taken for granted!!! That you deserve a good guy (whether it be a boyfriend or a friend) and that you are intelligent, gorgeous and don't deserve to be pushed around! Stand up and let your voice be heard, don't sit back and let guys push you around!!! We deserve just as much respect as they do and if a guy is ignoring you and your wishes completely than it isn't worth it!!! Tell them what you think of them and then give them ONE chance to apologise and fix their ways and if they don't then boot them out the door!!
They certainly don't deserve you if they don't listen to you and support you!
Also, don't help them fix their problems unless they help you fix yours too. It has to be a two-way deal not just a thing for their convinence. You're not their mother!!!!
Anyway, just remember too little words:
GIRL POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I am in a very different mood at the moment. It's rather a sad mood, because I have been hurt by one of my friends. It shouldn't be this way so close to Christmas but I guess that's the way life goes.
I don't want to write much of my day-to-day life at the moment but rather I want to write about something that I feel is very important, plus my day-to-day life is rather boring at the moment.
You are probably all wondering what I want to write about, well it is something I feel very strongly about at the moment....Girl Power. I want to talk about making sure that us girls aren't taken for granted by guys...and not just boyfriends either. Any guys out there, Dads, Grandads, friends, cousins, uncles. Anyone.
All this stems from something going on in my life at the moment. This friend problem, the friend who hurt me is a boy. Me and another friend (a girl) are working together to put up a united front to this friend and tell him that we won't be pushed around and taken for granted.
This boy called me a teachers pet. Now that doesn't sound like a big thing but to me it is as bad as being called any other name. To me a teachers pet represents everything I don't want to be. A suck-up, a lazy little insincere idiot.
I told this boy to stop calling me that but he just continued to mock me over and over again even when I shouted at him to stop it and told him that I would block him (this was on Facebook) or kill him m(that's how mad I was)
He mocked me more not taking me seriously at all. So I blocked him and sent him an email explaining how hurt I was and that I would only consider becoming his friend again if he apologised sincerely.
Well he sent me back a very insincere email where he said that he knew now that I was not a friend to be mocked. Well that really annoyed me because he should know that I can take a joke very well even if it's against myself but that when I say stop I mean stop. So I sent him back an email saying that I wouldn't accept that apology and that he shouldn't take me for granted etc. etc. Also my other friend said that the boy had been taking out his anger on her so I told him (by email) that we wouldn't be taken for granted and that if he continued to take out his anger on a girl who had only ever offered us both support than he stood to lose her too!
So girls stand up and let people know that you won't be taken for granted!!! That you deserve a good guy (whether it be a boyfriend or a friend) and that you are intelligent, gorgeous and don't deserve to be pushed around! Stand up and let your voice be heard, don't sit back and let guys push you around!!! We deserve just as much respect as they do and if a guy is ignoring you and your wishes completely than it isn't worth it!!! Tell them what you think of them and then give them ONE chance to apologise and fix their ways and if they don't then boot them out the door!!

Happy Days (Hey that was a show!)
Hey there guys and girls!
Well this will be a short post because I am a little tired. I only got 7 1/2 hours sleep last night and I usually get 9 hours so I really want a big night's sleep tonight.
Well today was busy!!! Mum and I went out this morning to finish off the Christmas shopping, we finally bought the camera for Grandma and Grandpa which was great!! It is a gorgeous silver one and it is absolutely tiny!!! We also got them a camera bag, I hope they like it!!
I can't actually remember the other presents we bought, that's how tired I am!
But when we got home I just chilled out, I watched TV came on my laptop and just generally relaxed....It was great!!
Then Nick finally got home this afternoon and Alex came too....Not very expected on my part and I was not very happy to see him! I couldn't fully relax while those two were playing Guitar Hero on full volume!! Brothers!!!!
While Alex was there Mum and I locked ourselves in her room and wrapped heaps and heaps of Christmas presents.
Then Alex finally left and I could relax properly. I just chilled out completely again, I don't remember what I do....Boy am I forgetful tonight!!!!
But then at about 6:00 I went for a swim, it was gorgeous!!! The water was beautifully warm and I just had the best time......Hopefully I will have time to swim every day or at least every second day! I am trying to improve my backstoke which is my worst swimming stroke. Also I want to improve my speed in Butterfly.
Christmas is almost here and I am very very excited.....
CHRISTMAS IS COMING!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways, I'm going to bed (it's 8:40pm and I'm tired)
TTYL,
Jess (very, very tired but happy and looking forward to Christmas)
