Today is Tuesday.
Today I watched Play School and Bob the Builder.
Today I had dim sims for breakfast.
Today I went to Greenhills.
Today I saw a number of people I knew at Greenhills.
Today I played BEJEWELED BLITZ on Facebook. It is the most awesomest game EVER. But I suck at it.
Today I am going for a drive, hopefully, to Singleton with my uncle.
Today I am going to have dinner with my family.
Today my grandma is cooking PRAWNS. :)
Today will be the last day of freedom as from Wednesday onwards I will have to study my butt off for these stupid exams.
Today will be great when it's over.

The Branxton Joker!
Amy Edwards. Herald. Newcastle, N.S.W.: Sep 30, 2009. pg. 12
AT the tender age of 15, Branxton school girl Aprill Miles is about to go where even the most seasoned entertainer would fear to tread.
The year 10 Singleton High School student will take to the stage at Comedy on the Rox in Sydney next month to contest the finals of a stand-up, all-age comedy competition.
Comedy on the Rox is a regular haunt for stand-up comedy greats such as Judith Lucy, Julia Morris and Carl Baron.
Aprill is no stranger to the stage, enjoying theatre work since she was 12.
"Of all the performing arts, stand-up comedy would be the most nerve-racking," Aprill told Herald reporter Donna Sharpe.
" It's an added pressure being funny. You can't hide behind a script, a prop or a guitar. You feel really raw and if people don't like the joke then they pretty much don't like you."
Aprill has always aspired to a career in the performing arts.
"I've had a bit of a talent for making people laugh," she said.
After recently completing a comedy workshop in Newcastle, she received a "highly commended" evaluation.
"That spurred me on and I did some research about competitions and came across Comedy on the Rox," Aprill said.
Aprill travelled to Sydney two weeks ago where she competed in some heats, scored second place and landed herself a spot in the finals.
She lists among her comedy idols Julia Morris, Robin Williams, ventriloquist Nina Conti and Ross Noble.
Aprill said that to prepare for her routines she writes a "skeleton" of what she wants to say.
"When I get on stage, though, my mind is usually pretty blank and I do whatever comes out. Most of it is improvising and pretty much about my life observations and living in Branxton," she said.
"I rip myself off a bit. At 15 you have to be politically correct and can't cover a lot of topics the older people do."
