September

Seems like its that time of the year.

Every day seems a little bit longer than the last.

Petals are unfurling on blossoming, vibrant flowers.

Temperatures rise from the chills of winter ever so slightly.

Educational institutions are giving their students a nice long break.

Manic fans urge their footy teams towards September glory.

Beds shed their thick quilts and electric blankets.

End of Year 12 is approaching rapidly.

Rejuvenate tired minds and bodies!


Its September, and the three weeks of break some of us have allows us many myraid and promising opportunities to improve ourselves before the final exams. Of course, its not unsual for us to feel let down at the end of it; promises of a practice exam a day, elaborate working schedules, discipline and determination, as well as plenty of sleep are often not met.

That should be fine; as long as we don't do anything ridiculously stupid, a bit of fun and unwinding after some pretty intense months of working, early mornings and late nights can only be good.

On a different note, Sam has kindly given me his camera phone footage of the 400m which I ran at house aths. It's funny how in the video it seems like we're not running that fast and it doesn't go for so long, but I can assure you felt like an absolute age. Note my staggering near the finish line :P Thanks Sammy!



Wish you all a great term break!
