It's the Little Things

Woke up this morning at 630. Even with only about 6 hours of sleep, I felt so incredibly happy for some reason.
(was gonna text everyone "Rise and Shine" but I figured half of you would probably slap me :P)

Walking to school, drifting to one class after another, sometimes you feel like you're living a dream...

Relaxed lunchtimes in the quad
The smell of asian food in F7
Random tidbits of news and gossip
The sound of talking, laughter, screaming...
Just the fact that you know someone, that can wave to poeple as you walk along
That you belong somewhere...

It feels good.

It's hard to imagine life next year without all this. We can say we understand, but unless we truly experience the feeling of insignificance, we'll never really appreciate what we have.

Just the fact that you can detour through Jellie Park, and taste the beauty. And then there's Fendalton Library where a lot of pretty interesting things have happened...
And don't forget the Fish and Chip shop! =>the endless supply of heavenly Double Meats, Chicken burgers and fatty foods...Probably blown half my life savings there lol

I remember complaining in Year 11 how no one walks down Memorial. Now we've even formed this "Year 13 walking home club." It's so funny driving past and watching this group of wannabe adults glomping down the pathway...haha

Gotta love the ping-pong walks up and down Otara Road, round and round New World, or in some cases Chilcombe Street....
And then there's the roundabout. Way too many memories involving those four streets...

Guys, when we're like 99 with walking sticks, lets do the roundabout thing again aye?

Haha so many good times.
High school's been awesome, Burnside's been awesome.
Last week of term three. One more term. Let's make it amazing!

It's the little things that truly sparkle in life, if only you're willing to find it :D
