"Turn Off The Sun & I'm Still Gonna Shine"

Sometimes tears say all there is to say / Sometimes you first scars wont ever fade away / Try to break my heart, well it's broke / Try to hang me high, well I'm choked / Wanted rain on me, well I'm soaked / Soaked to the skin

Sometimes we don't learn from our mistakes / Sometime we've no choice but to walk away / Try to break my heart, well it's broke / Try to hang me high, well I'm choked / Wanted rain on me, well I'm soaked / Soaked to the skin

- The End Where I Begin: The Script

I'm a little annoyed right now. See, I got a $20 iTunes gift card as a b'day pressie from my auntie, and yesterday afternoon I found a movie I wanted (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) and started to download it- the computer said it would take 4 hours.
Later on, my sister exits my iTunes and opens her own while this movie is still downloading. I go on, and find that while it's over half done, there are still 4 hours to go. I mean, it's great that it's still going, at least, and I haven't wasted 12 dollars, but still. Grrr.

I'm also happy, because I was given an A+ for my first Classics booklet (which was on the Wasps, by Aristophanes). I kind of want to do a Classics scholarship, because then I'll have a far bigger chance of getting into Vic Uni.

I know I've been going on about it a lot, which may be a little insensitive, but we're going on holiday on Saturday! Mum is super super excited, and I'm looking forward to it quite a lot :D
It's our first proper holiday in aaaages.
I mean, when I was a little kid, we used to go on holiday pretty much every year. In the first seven years of my life we went to Arizona, Fiji, The Gold Coast and England (twice), but now that Dad's gone we don't so much. Last time I went overseas was when I was 11, to visit Mum's family in Cornwall, and last time Mum went overseas was to Canada for five weeks in 2008.
So it will be gooood, because HOPEFULLY my sisters can refrain from fighting for once, and everyone will be happy (though if we can't even get along on Christmas Day- last year was monstrous- how can we get along for 10 days in a motorhome?).
