Hello everyone! :D
I figured that it was time for an update! It's been about two weeks or something since I last posted, so yes, it's definitely time!
This week has been, like, the weirdest one ever. You know how there's those 'normal' weeks, the 'strange' weeks, and then the 'plain out weird' weeks? Well, this week definitely classifies as 'plain out weird'.
It started fully out on Monday. My brothers and I were doing school work, and Mum's got music on somewhere in the house, and then we realise that there was someone knocking at the door. So Mum answers it, and it's one of the neighbours, who then goes on to tell us that someone entered the apartment block and stole one of out bikes.
About ten minutes later after looking at the car space, Mum came up, and I decided to head out and see if I could find the person/the bike. I thought I might find them near by, because they stole the bike that had two completely flat tires, and was kinda small.
Of course, I didn't find it. I spent half an hour walking around, attempting to see if I could find the bike, but whoever had stolen it must've gotten the hell out of the area. But I went to my friend's cafe that was near by and asked if they had seen the bike, because I lot of people stop by there.
They hadn't, but they gave me an old bike of theirs that had been sitting in the cafe for ages. one of the tires was completely dead, and the chain needed fixing, so I wheeled it home and presented it to my brother. (We're fixing it up at the moment!)
And that was the start to what would prove to be my weirdest week in a long time.
The next day I went to the Ballet to see Coppelia, which is now my all time favourite! It was very touching, and very sad at the same time. I got to meet some of the dancers and get my programmed signed, which was really cool!
And then the weird thing. :P
So normally the homeschoolers who go to the ballet are very well behaved. No talking, no running around, jumping on seats, nothing.
This time, however, was very different. There was a family in front of us, who's daughter kept using her phone even when the intermissions were over and the next part of the performance had started. She was very annoying, and I had to stop myself from kicking her seat.
Then there were some girls who kept talking loudly about how people were dressed and how strange some people looked. They were awful.
The next day my brother and I went out busking. So normally busking is a bit strange from time to time, but it's expected.
Anyway, so someone, once I had finished my first round, came up with a bag of food, gave it to me, said that I sounded lovely, then walked off. After that I had this other group of people come up and start overly questioning me on the music I was singing.
I also had this lady attempt to sell me perfume by spraying it on me as I walked past. That was pretty strange. And any way, there was no way she was going to sell me any of that, I hate perfume.
And those were probably the weirdest of the things that happened this week.
I'm also applying for Uni at the moment, which is kinda scary. I still have to get some references and write up my C.V. I still think having to give them my C.V is kinda strange, because I can't see why they'd need it, but oh well.
I've also been invited to do some stiltwalking at various festivals and such around the city, and my first one is in late October. They'll be some of my first 'proper' Circus gigs, which I'm pretty excited about! Not to mention I'm finally getting my own pair of stilts at the end of next week, so I'm super duper hyped for that! I'll definitely have to get some photos and videos of them for you guys.
Well, I have to go, got another post to write up for you guys. :3
Love y'all!

Fathers Day + More...
Good evening everyone!
How are you all? I'm feeling pretty well, I just finished school and I'm up to date with my Uni Prep, so feeling rather accomplished at the moment! I'm also feeling kinda proud of my re-edition of the super cute Bubble Ponytails with Beanie by Cute Girls Hairstyles.
Fathers Day was pretty fun! We went to my friend's house for brunch, which was cool. We had tortia, chipolatas, carrot cake, sticky buns, and a whole ton of other really yummy food. I also got to watch Episode 2 from the first Sherlock Holmes TV series (The Blind Banker), which was so cool! It was my first ever Sherlock to watch, and I really want to watch more of it! We left the house with some leftover food, a bike seat (for my dad's bike) and a gift for Dad.
After that we went busking. I was pretty sleepy for some reason, so I went home, but I stopped off and bought one of the new minifigure bags from series 14. I got the Spider Lady, who is my favourite.
We didn't really have a proper dinner because everyone had stuffed themselves at brunch, so we all sat around. I finally managed to finish 20 Thousand Leagues Under The Seas - I read 26 chapters in one day to finish it!
After my brothers went to sleep my parents and I watched Gattaca, which we had borrowed from the library. It was such a good movie, and I liked the futuristic feel about it! I felt sorry for (*SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT AND WISH TO*) real Jerome, especially at the end of the movie. Vincent was also a pretty cool character in it, he's a good example of how wrong some things can be.
The scarey thing is that I can see society going that way in the future if we give it the chance!
And that was our Fathers Day!
Also, my friend Leilani and I made another mini-movie. She called it the Spooky Walk, and I still think that she could've came up with a better name, but oh well. This is our Halloween video, since she will probably be in India when Halloween actually comes around.
Also, I might be getting MineCraft at the end of the year! Depending on what happens with my school stuff - eg, how organized I am with my planning with school and all that - I might be able to buy it for PC. So I was thinking that maybe, once I'm into the flow of it and all that, I might make some video tutorials on how to use it. I'll only be allowed to play it during School holidays, but they happen often enough that I should be able to make a few videos between terms.
So I'll keep you guys updated on that, and we'll see what happens!
Anyway, I should probably get off now, and write some more of Guardian Angel and figure out who should be my accompanist for my WAAPA audition.
Stay well, and I'll see you all soon!

Spreading Chritsmas Spirit: Prep
Evening everyone! :D
How are you? :3 Have you ad a good week? Looking forwards to the weekend? I am, as it means I get to do more circus training!
As you may remember from my shower thoughts post, I want to re-introduce Christmas spirit into the world, and at the moment I'm doing a "prep" for it.
My prep is basically sitting down and thinking about what could I do for the eight weeks (remember, I hope to start in November! :D) And then writing it as a plan.
Here's my current plan for the challenge:
Week one: give compliments
Week two: make cookies and give them to neighbours
Week three: give someone some chocolate
Week four: (still blank - need something for here! :P)
Week five: give inspirational messages to strangers
Week six: make Christmas cards/decorations for friends/family/strangers
Week seven: give money to homeless
Week eight: help someone
So that's my current plan! I was thinking about making week four "take someone out for lunch/give them money for lunch". not sure yet, but hopefully I shall. It'll also depend on how much money I have...
My dad has been made redundant for the second time this year, which sucks. :/ He has work for a while, but then he has to find a new job. I was thinking that maybe I should find a short job, and help support the family while dad finds a new job... but the only one I can think of that I could do is a LEGO Message Boards moderator, but I have to be 18 for that... any ideas from you guys? c:
I have to go, got other stuff to do. See you all later,

Music Monday
Good morning! :D How are you all? I'm currently enjoying the early morning sun whilst wrapped in a blanket. XD
So, it's Music Monday again! I wasn't actually going to post anything for it, but I changed my week plan after hearing the new album that my parents won. So, you guys get a new favourite of mine to listen to! :D
The song is by Kitty, Daisy and Lewis. They're a family band who's music is influenced by styles like Rock and Roll, Rockabilly, Swing, Hawaiian, blues, etc. I heard them for the first time in 2013, and I've enjoyed their music ever since.
Their new album, "The Third", was released recently, and my parents won a copy of it along with tickets to see the band live. Unfortunately my brothers and I couldn't go too, but we got to listen to the album.
The song for this music is "Whenever You See Me", which is the first song on the album. I love the feeling in the song and the tempo, and I can see some pretty awesome characters being formed in my minds eye just from thinking about the song...
Another few good songs done by them are "Going up the Country", "Messing with my life", "Bitchin' in the Kitchen" and "It ain't your Business".
Plus they record all their albums at home. How cool is that?!
Okay, I'd better go, I was supposed to have started school half an hour ago...
Bye!

Fringe World Show
Hallo Everyone!
How are you this morning? Enjoying the rain? I sure am. :)
Karaoke went well on Sunday! :D It was loads of fun, and to my surprise and relief no one sung a Frozen song. The majority of the kids who turned up were between 2-13, and then there's me, the 15 year old. :P I don't think many of their parent's liked me that much, purely because I was the oldest. At least, that's what I thought from the way they looked at me.
I sung "Popular" from Wicked The Musical, and that was pretty fun! The tempo was faster than normal, which I found slightly distracting, but otherwise it was fine! At the end of the song someone said I should voice the next Disney Princess, and two other people told me I was awesome. :3
Anyway, to the original reason I began to write this post...
So I will assume that the majority of my readers will know about the Fringe World Show. If not, I highly recommend reading the Wikipedia Page on it. It'll give you an idea on what it's about. At least, what one of the Australian ones are like...
So some of you may remember when I was telling you about Clown Vs Ninja, yes? Or was that on Facebook? I can't remember. Anyway, last year I did two circus shows called Clowns Vs Ninja. I got to be one of the Ninja and did a very short 'solo' act, which you can watch here on my YT channel. I also have got quite a few photos from it...
Anyway, I have been alerted that we may be revising Clowns Vs Ninja for a kid's Fringe Show! My brother and I will be putting in our EOI forms next Thursday, and if there are enough people interested we will be going ahead with it! We need around 10-15 people for it to start, so I have my fingers crossed that it happens!
If it does, we'll be having to do lots of circus training, along with "Ninja stealth workshop"s, prop manipulations, stunt fighting, and so on. It's going to be loads of fun! Plus it will be my first proper circus show to ever be in, and not to mention my first time to perform in the Fringe, which is pretty exciting! I can't wait!
Here's two photos from one of the previous CvN shows:
Me performing in the first show.
Backstage prep a month before the show started. We were all trying on costumes that day and getting to know each other. That was also the day I decided to wear my green Ninjago t-shirt and met a fellow Ninjago fan...
Well, I must run, we're meant to tidying the house today. I also might pop down to the library, cause I have some books to return, and I might do some busking... it's the right day for it! Well, maybe not if I get rained on...
Stay safe, enjoy life and I'll see you all later!

That Sunny Day
Morning peeps! :D
Wow, I never realised my previous post would get so popular! It's got two more views than my Ninjago Monday one got! So, anyone joining the #SpreadingChristmasSpirit team? :P
It's been pretty nice down here since yesterday weather wise. :P It was literally spring weather, despite the fact we're still technically in winter. That said though I'm not going to complain too much, I'm getting tired of having to put on a pair of stockings every time I decide to wear a skirt.
Friday was kinda busy, I went into town to do busking and buy my friend a birthday present. She hadn't been talking to me for a while, but I still wanted to get her a present, so I went to my favourite Chocolate shop and bought her some chocolate.
Once I gave her the card she took it with even saying "Thank You", read the card, then looked at me with a tablet in hand and said "Hey, I'll show you my Instagram". I was slightly taken aback, and not mention surprised since this was the first time in two months that she'd said more than "Hello" to me, but hey, at least we're back on talking terms. Anyway, Happy sixteenth Birthday, Lulah-Bell!
Jujitsu's been going well, I'm getting ready for my next grading, which will be for the red-and-white belt. I've had a look at the grading sheet, and it's a lot more complicated than the brown-and-white. I have to do all my normal rolls and break-falls over obstacles. I can do the forward roll over an obstacle, but not any of the other rolls and falls. Reflexes are a lot longer now too, and I have no clue how I'm going to get them all memorized. Sensei Darren suggested sleeping with the sheet under my pillow to let it all soak into my head, but I don't think I'll do that... :P
I've also been having to help out a lot of the new people and the white belts, which has been pretty fun! I've been correcting their technique and giving them pointers. It's actually amazing, I never thought I'd be able to do that. XD I'm glad that Sensei Paul trusts me enough to let me look after them... :P
I went to Circus yesterday, and that was... well, meh. Yes, it was Meh. We had an extra two teachers there because my boss decided she needed to hire a replacement teacher for the day because one of the usual ones couldn't turn up that day, and then hired another teacher just in case the first replacement teacher didn't turn up. So we had way too many teachers for how many students turned up, which was kinda stupid I think. That said though those two replacement teachers weren't much help, they kinda stood around without any idea on what to do.
I'm now not getting my stilts until the end of this term, because my boss "forgot" that she was meant to be paying me with them instead of free classes. According to how much I'm meant to be getting paid, I actually should have got them at the end of Term 1. But I know that my boss doesn't like me that much, and that she's trying to keep me for as long as she can because she doesn't have to pay me the same rate as she has to pay the adult teachers. So once I get my stilts I'm going to quit teaching. And then I'm starting something new... dancing, I think.
Anyway, I had better go, breakfast is ready and we're going to karaoke with some friends. Damn, I forgot, I'm also meant to be having a shower...
Can't wait to go out and enjoy the sun. :3
Love y'all,
