Perth kids!

[now i'm lost]

just wondering.
what schools do you all go to? what year are you in?
what subjects do you do? what are your aspirations?
do you have a job? where?......etc.

i did go to churchlands. I've just finished year 12. Yay, i dont have to go to school ever again. I was a special music student and i also did photography, media, drama, and stuff like that.
I wanna be a rock star. I'm currently in a metal band! heheheh, on the second last day of school we did a gig and played a whole heap of metallica covers. Alot of fun! Thats not necessarily the direction i want my music to head but its something.
I work at subway in innaloo. umn.....yeah, theres not much to say about that......

[Bree To Blame]

Okay well technically Im not a kid -but I act like one so....

I went to Kalamunda Senior High, graduated in '98.
I did sit the TEE... I studied subjects like Japanese, and Human Biol, and Art (which is my passion).
I dont have a job, currently, as Im studying Art and Design at TAFE (Carine campus) and its getting near assessment time which means mega stress trying to finish off assignments.
Submitting a folio for admission to study Graphic Design next year. If I get that sorted and accepted, then thats my next three years sorted.

Id love to be a rockstar as Poodleboy said, but at the moment the band hasnt had a practice in a month, and i havent got time for writing new songs... d'oh.
I wanna be an Art director/layout designer for a big magazine.

I am Bree, I am 20 years old, and I am a chocoholic.

I'm sitting my f**king TEE at the moment.  It's such a f**king pain in the neck.  I've decided that I'm not going to study so i'm going in cold turkey.  Got through my English and Maths exams today and yesterday but i've still got Political & Legal Studies and Art to go.  

F**k something needs to be done about the West Australian TEE Art course system. I's full of absolute s**t.  Firstly for people who chose do do Graphic Design or anything similar as studio discipline there is no relief from the crap dished out by simple minded, one eyed contemporary art markers.  They have absolutely no idea concerning the area and the principles involved.  Everytime: "No interrelationships to artists studied in this design brief".  How the f**k are you supposed to incorporate something from French Impressionsim into a poster for a musical event?  Anyways; If I get started I won't stop.

I have no musical talent as yet but extreme respect and admiration of those who do.  I love writing songs and poetry, particularily those concerned with social commentry.  I hated my English teacher this year and last year and the year before as it was the same f**king arsehole.  Every single essay: "C-, try simplifying the context and language in your essays."  What the f**k was wrong with them?  Is it my fault the f**khead with a god damn degree does understand the subject that he is supposed to be teaching and be the head of f**king department for?  Yeah again; if I get started I won't stop.

I am self employed and run my own multimedia production business.  ABN 86 092 265 022 "Impulse Productions".  Hoping to study Multimedia Design at either Curtin, Swinburne or Monash Universities next year.  See where that takes me.

Makes you wonder what exactly awaits in the not so distant future.

i tend to not play with kids that arent in some way indie kids, *waves, yew knows who yew are*, although us at the jebs BORED, cannot define indie, or properly use this werd in full context, i still would like to think and call myself one.. amen...

[apple gerl]

school: methodist ladies' college in claremont...yes, feel free to laugh....it is so bad. i'm scarred for life..
its a good school as far as subjects and stuff goes, but fark me, i hate all the snobbery and rules and restrictions. especially how anal they are about appearance..i'm not reeally one of those students that teachers like very much.

year: 11. one more year to go... =/

subjects: TEE human biol, foundies maths, art, english and geography. i hate maths and geogs with a passion (changing to history next year) and i love art + english.

aspirations: i know exactly what i want to do with my life, but i'm not sure if i'll get it. apart from wanting to travel heaps [i'm thinking of going away backpacking for a year at the end of 2002] i want to be a music journalist/gig promoter/band manager etc etc...definately music industry based. ideally i'd love to write for juice magazine like my frend bron does but yeh..that's setting my sights pretty high. i'm hugely ambitious.

job: not one that pays, but i do a lot of stuff like helping out festival/mushroom records on the street team, writing cd/live reviews for rockus, headquarters magazine, i used to write fer bubblehead/bubblehead international.. blah blah

i want to werk at subway! *jealous* hehe

[Jess]

I'm in Year 11 at Carine High.. It's a hole and all the people there are teenybopping shits or surfers. Steer clear, peoples.

Subjects I'm doing are English Lit, Human Biology, History, Intro Calc, Early Childhood Studies and Independant Living. But that's only for another week, next year I'll be doing Lit, HB, History, Applicable Maths and Photography.

Currently unemployed, looking (half-heartedly) for a job.. Have a couple of non-paying thingies like the FMR street team (with Alex, although we haven't done anything in aaages), etc.

Aspirations: As far as the rest of my life goes I really have no idea.. Short term plans include paying off my goddamned holiday, saving up for another one for next September, moving to Melbourne after year 12.. That's about all the plans I have at the moment, as far as work / uni goes I have no fucking clue..
