Paramore!!!

Dear Paramore,

Thank you!
For welcoming me into your world, and providing awesome tunes for me to dance/rock out to.
For being an excuse to take a road trip with some gorgeous gals and avoid homework.
For selling wicked merch and delish burgers at your concert.
For being hilarious and humbling.
For having your Melbourne concert at an outside venue - at first worrying (due to the threatening rain clouds), but proving to be refreshingly cool (not due to the rain, due to the coolness).
For having Relient K as one of your support bands.
For being worth so much more than $82.95.
For being cool enough to invite a fan up on stage to sing with you guys (damn I wish that was me), and man she sure could air guitar!
For being passionate about our Lord.
For having fireworks - that was cool.
Basically, for one rockin' night! 

Love Sarah. xo

PS. If you don't know who Paramore are, get out from underneath that rock you're living under dude.. 

PPS. Check out Hayley's hilarious and inspiring tumblr.

PPPS. Playing God video out now! Eeeeperrrs it's awesome!

Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!

Leah Dieterich is awesome, and her blog thnxthnxthnx is also awesome!

I find her posts so hilarious and thought provoking. And I can so often relate!
I'm jealous that my Mum didn't tell me to write thank you notes. And then I want to do it anyway, but that would be unoriginal and nowhere near as interesting. But forgive me if I do teeter a little over the copy-cat line one day.. as I just love this idea too much. 


In summary, bravo to Leah D. And may you never stop sharing your thank yous.

Ahhh... :)

Today is a glorious day.

I can. I really can. 

Hooray! :D

Are you smarter than a 5th grader?

Today my Mum totally met this clever little girl. And taught her stuff about Space.

And yes, my Mum was totally smarter than her ;)

(but seriously, isn't she gorgeous?)

Ps. Is this show still on?? I never got to prove that I was smarter...

Procrastinating...

Where have I been lately, you ask?

Well, I've been doing this:

I have been trying to study for my year 12 VCE exams, and this Procrastination Chart represents my productivity perfectly!

But seriously! I do try! And then I look out the window or notice a freckle on my arm, and all concentration is lost. That's how desperate my brain is to think about something else. Anything else.

But I'm nearly done! In just a matter of days I will be finished school forever!! Except I do plan to go to Uni, but that's different because it's voluntary. And after school is finished, I will get to sleep in and eat TimTams and play music and play The Sims 3 and go running and bake cookies and watch all the Ellen I want and do everything I've craved for while studying! :)

Yippee!

Also, if you haven't seen the blog Hyperbole and a Half, check it out now! It's awesomely hilarious, and has been a very welcomed source of rest and funnies in between my studyness. I would also recommend starting with the 'Best of' column down the right hand side. It's like your own personal comedian :)

Anywho.. See you on the other side of freedom! :)
