<[Because hardly any of you would know what I'm talking about:

Newsquiz is a competition where teams from opposing schools read a week's worth of the local paper The Townsville Bulletin, memorise as much as they can, and then answer a series of twenty questions. I know it probably sounds urgh, but it's a lot of fun.

Anyway...for the fourth year running, my team's won! I'm so excited, because there was a lot of pressure on us to perform this year and this'll be my last year of being able to compete (I graduate from Year 12 the day before my 17th birthday, and the comp's only open to schools). Not only that, but we were up against the toughest team (besides us, of course!) in the competition - Pimlico State High. Their team captain just happens to be an ex-SMMC girl (SMMC = Saint Margaret Mary's College, which is the school I go to) with a very deep-seated grudge against our school. The competition is always very fierce, and this year the game was particularly close - we won by one point. The final score was 9-8.

I'm just glad it's over. I've been stressing all week, and now I can relax, gloat a little and focus on schoolwork.]>

Yeah. It's one of those "planned community" dealies. It's named for the balance of people and nature and the founder's wife's mother. It's pretty cool but I'm sick of the 'hey u guyzz do teh ppl n harmony liv in harmony??? hahahahaha' jokes from the redneck slurmoids at my school.

Slurmoids = coolest word ever.

Harmony sounds like a nice place to live. The jokes, however, sound a little lame.

I'd like to thank the often bizarre but ever cool author Francesca Lia Block for inserting it into my vernacular.

Yeah...except for the nutjobs, assjacks and the guy who lives next to me who apparently wants to bone me (flattering but...no). The nature's nice. I prefer the school to my neighborhood solely because of my friends. We're a weird bunch. xP

I know 'teh'...xp.

I've never heard that one before. Speaking of that, my mom knows more about chatspeak than I do.

I have a LiveJournal and happen to be a member of metaquotes, so I learn a lot of chatspeak. My mother knows...lol. I think that's it.
