For all of you who don’t know it, tonight, from 8:30 to 9:30, is Earth Hour. Because we all want to save the planet, everyone should turn off all their lights (NB it is not really about saving electricity – just turning off your lights for one hour won’t really help, it’s about awareness and sending a message and getting into habits to not use as much energy). So, if you haven’t already signed up, go to http://www.earthhour.org/home/, and then turn your lights off for one hour tonight. And, so you have a fun time in the dark this evening, a few things you can do there…
Þ Share stories around a fire
Þ Take the dog for a night walk
Þ Play hide and seek in the garden
Þ Gather family and friends for a picnic under the stars
Þ Have dinner by candlelight
Þ Play truth or dare
Þ Think of other exciting things to do…
And have a good time, saving the Earth!!!
Well, I hope that was enlightening… and also, to all those of you present at tennis, daylight saving does NOT end this weekend, but at 3:00 am next Sunday. Last year they changed the dates, so that there was extra daylight saving…
Goodbye all, must get back to my science assignment, I’m sure it’s missing me more than I it. And don’t forget – lights out at 8:30!

Don't You Just Love Technology...
Don't you just love the way websites take so long to load? here i am, trying to do my work, and it's just being uncooperative. So rude. Instead, while I wait, I have decided to write a blog post. Because to work on science and english at once would be too much for my poor brain to cope with...
Back to the subject of loading websites... you then find that the html version of the article is exactly the same, you still can't see the pictures!!!!!!! Does anyone know how to see the pictures on ebsco host? Please tell!!!!!!!!!!
GUESS WHAT EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S OUT OF UNIFORM TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!! Big whoop, I know. Still, it's different. And i had to remind someone (unfortunately Siobhan doesn't read this post...). What are we all wearing? :p It's ok, I don't really want to know that much.
So... I am really bad at finding things to talk about on this thing... I don't have Emily's awesome rambling skills :p. I spose i could write a story like Millie... but that would take too long. i can never finish them very well anyway...
Have to go eat dinner, catch ya's all l8r... :p

I get the feeling i should be somewhere else right now...
hello again! would you look at that. another post!
Anyway... do you ever sit down at your desk, or at the computer desk (which might be the same thing), ready to do all that work you have waiting for you, when all of a sudden you're checking your email, writing a blog post, checking and commenting other peeps blogs, and other random things (like playing minesweeper)? and then, just when you've run out of things to do, and are feeling very tired and daunted by the work a head of, you start thinking about that really good book you're currently reading, and surely 15 more minutes wouldn't hurt? yea... that's happeneing to me now. despite having two assignments, two tests and SAC homework, i have spent the entire afternoon/ evening reading and blogging. oops. and then, on the weekend, i was all "i'm going to get stuck into it today!" but i never really did... i pretty much do my homework, but i just get stuck when it comes to starting assignments. they're so time consuming!
so, thanks for listening to my rant, which was probably not at all interesting, now i'm just going to check my email, have a shower, violin practice, read one more chapter, then get stuck into science... wait a minute, my phone just went off. brilliant!
oh, and to all those people that went to guys and dolls, hope you had fun, wish i was there :(
although nothing beats getting wet at beach sports... which happened to take place at the train sheds. don't ask. but i would NOT have minded missing geography... scarred for life

I Have a Blog
Yes. it's true. i have a blog. yay!
about the name... everything i could think of was either lame or unavailable, and i thought of "it's a mystery to me" (from a game i used to play), which was taken, but "It's A Mystery To Us All" wasn't, so i'm stuck with it, despite the fact i'll probs hate it in a few months. oh well. i'm not sure how much i'll use it anyway (as i say in my "about me).
so... have fun reading. or reading my comments on your own blog, as the case may be.
gah. i was about to say something... can't remeber now. i was too busy writing the ps. although why people write ps's in things like this, when you can just insert it before the end, i don't know. oh well. i do it anyway...

ps does anyone know if these things get deleted if you don't use it enough? please tell
