Well.
Oh god, wow I actually feel like I'm going to cry. That's a first.(not)
I wanted to write something really fantastic, and energising to everyone so that they could read it and kinda cheer up. But looks like that's not going to happen. Looks like I'm just going to tell everybody how much I actually hated them. Which is very little. :)
Right... Where to begin, where to begin. Why don't I start from the start of year 7.
I was a small korean kid with a bowl cut, coming to a new school, where everybody seemed to already know each other. You wouldn't believe how nervous I was. I didn't know whether I'd fit in, or whether I would be any good at the things they offer me at the school (Which I soon found out was, no... Unless it was something other than academics :P ). I didn't know anyone, except for my sister, but I didn't really particularly want to 'hang out' as they said in High School, with my sister. But I ended up doing that anyway. I joined a LEAP class, and I oggled at the timetable (it was fancy stuff at the time ok?). I was scared, rather bored because I didn't know anyone, (Except for Justin ;) We have a history) and suddenly, everyone and everything at High School seemed so intimidating. I soon got over that. My first real friend I got to know properly, was Nick. I still remember when I first saw him. He had his science book in front of his face, in hopes that Ms Cheung wouldn't see him and mark him off on the roll. I don't know what he was trying to achieve with that though, considering his name was written on the book. I remember thinking, 'What a weird kid'. Then turning back to my book filled with empty pages, and even emptier chairs at empty tables (Les Mis reference :D Anyone?). And from then on, things got a lot better. I met even more friends, (Nick seemed to be a friend magnet), and by the end of Year 7, and moving on to year 8, I had found a new set of friends. Suddenly, everything looked like it was going to be alright.
Year 8 came along, and I'm not sure that's when I first met my now permanent group of friends, but that is when I belive, me and Nick met Alfred, Patrick, Tallulah, Dan, Nasim, Claire, and ect. (Sorry I can't remember who else was there). Me and Nick would play handball, and that small group of friend would come and go as they pleased. And as the seasons rolled along, eventually, me and Nick veered away from the handbill courts, and we got integrated into a new society.
I was very happy then. I found new and interesting people. Holy shit, I found people who played Sax. Omg, another Piano player! FINALLY! HOLY SHIT THESE GUYS KNOW THAT KOREA
EXISTS! OMG THESE GUYS ARE AMAZING WTF!I had great fun, and even with all the drama that flew around the group like a small hurricane, and decided to sweep by every Band Tour (Cough Year 8 Cough), I had new friends. Something and people to look forward to at school. I learnt that people aren't always dickheads. I learnt that people can be really nice, and that I'm not the only pianist age 13. I learnt that holy shit there's so many good pianists out there.I found something that made me happy. Hell, I even managed to squeeze in a very short but rather tragic love life in-between there somewhere. Seriously don't ask me about that. I'm actually going to slap you if you do. :D. (And it was not your fault but mine, and it was your heart on the line *Go finish the lyrics to this chorus cause I can't be fucked to write them down*)
Year 8 was fun. Screw the reports. Screw all the drama that buzzed around like angry little wasps. Screw everything bad that happened then. Smile and cry because it happened.
Year 9 rolled around lazily, and wow, suddenly we're the half-seniors of Lyneham High. Funnily enough, Year 9 doesn't feel like such a long time ago. Teehee. Year 9 Band camp. That was funny. Lots of awkwardness, freaky David Power stuff, lots of morning coffee, and Taka's Breadroll, that made me, Jamie, Alfred AND Taka late to rollcall. The happy fun times bus rides, the creepy Witches in Britches, the epic performances <3 Steel & Amparito Roca, Just. A short, happy moment in my hopefully long life.
But... Year 10.
Although I've already said too much, I still feel like there's so much more I want to say. I want to thank people, I want to tell people I hate them, I want to tell people how I actually feel about them, I want to scream and cry and laugh and hug people. I want to run around outside, I want to ride to everyone's houses, I want to see everyone again, I want to relive my life as a year 10 again. As Julian actually said, I would do it all over again. I felt like Year 20 might never end. That it would be this one happy chapter in my life, repating over and over again. And eventually that might get boring, but just for everything that happened. There was so much I missed out on, so much I could have done. So much I SHOULD have done. but now everything is over. It's all over. And Year 10 is done. My final day as a Year 10 was Today. I don't know the date today. But I will (probably forget) always remember this day. Never have I met such better friends. And never could I ask any more from all of my friends. And I know you;'re all going to Dickson next year. Nearly all of you. Nearly. There are a few friends who are now leaving my side, to attend school at the other side of Canberra. Friends whom I may never see again. Maybe I'll see them at Graduation Assembly. Maybe I'll never see them again. Maybe I'll see them on the roads and then crash into them. Who knows. But I'm saying my goodbyes here on this blog. Because you guys were awesome. I'll never forget you.
Nick. Hey buddy. If you're reading this... well IDK, if you're reading this then just remember dude. You got a friend in me. When the road looks. Tough ahead, and you;re miles and miles from your nice warm - shit that's Toy Story (Doctor Who spoof :D). But. Hey friend. When you go to Bundah. Don't forget that weird hyperactive Korean Kid who was your best friend. I can't put into words how awesome our friendship was, and I won't try to describe how thankful I was that you and me were friends. Now that it's all coming to an end... well. See Ya buddy. Keep in touch yeah?

P.s
And with this, this blog, Over the Rainbow, and Under the Hill is officially on hiatus. Due to my lack of blog writing skills, and the rather unfortunate flooding of my house due to obsessive crying over the people I've lost who are going to Narabundah, this blog will officially cease until I say so. Which will be about until the next cool thing pops up.
Until then, Ta-ta
