Caitlin – but it’s to represent his hotness! Like that guy from the bible…ummm Sampson. OOH! He’s naked here!
Alex- Can I see?
Megan – he’s not naked. He has a fuckin blanket over his fuckin dick. You know what? If I was a cartoon character I’d root him.
Caitlin – ooh look their riding different coloured horses. So she’s the baddy and he’s the good one.
Megan – it’s a fucking cartoon … so who’s the one he ends up rooting?
Caitlin – that one <points> the one in the bushes. See, what happens; is she’s just walking around…in the woods

Megan – he’s her bitch basically
Caitlin - well yeah. Anyway. Um. And then he’s like if we want to be together then theres this challenge and then pretty much she’s gonna turn me into hideous creatures and you have to prove you still love me

Caitlin – I can believe that.
Megan – how old do I look with makeup on?
Caitlin – ummm 19
Megan – hmm… tori?
Tori – I haven’t been paying much attention, writing conversations down is actually incredibly hard on my fingersss )):
Caitlin – I know what victoria’s doing. She’s trying to distract us because, from from mike…because she likes mike. That’s alliteration… not alliteration, assonance, because like and mike rhyme!
Caitlin’s just kinda staring at me right now, with that evil look she has, where she wants me to tell her some juicy gossip story about my non-existant love life *facepalm*
Caitlin – non existant my bottom
Alex - WHAT?!!! I came into that conversation at the wrong time!
Megan – I wish my bottom was non-existant
Caitlin has now died of laughter. What a shame. No more questions.
Caitlin – I resurrected myself. So, hows mike?
Megan – so who’s miiiikkeee??!!!! Mike mike mike mike mike.
Caitlin - he’s written songs about her.
Tori – what?! No he hasn’t!!
Megan – Alex, who’s mike?
Alex – ahhh I dunno, just some guy on dailybooth. Tori! Why doesn’t the blur tool ever work?
Tori- - I don’t know
Caitlin – because it’s a tool! Haha!
Tori – no Caitlin. That’s not funny.
Megan - I wanna expel the fat from my body
Tori- don’t we all
Mgan – I want lypo…
Caitlin –so, victoria… <expectant look>
Megan - I wanna know who this mike character is… is he hot?
Tori - <nods>
Alex – that’s AAALLLLLL that matters
Megan – as long as they’re hot and good in the sack I’m happy.
Tori – why didn’t I just record this conversation then type it up later???
Caitlin – because you’re a goober-head
Tori – damnit!
That was the end of our lesson. Like our photography conversations?
*facepalm* Caitlin won’t shut up… I shall kill her <evil look>
- Tori
DFTBA
PS; Caitlin is deranged, i'm not in love with ANYONE. And me and Mike haven't even talked enough for me to say we're just mates, so he's an acquaintance. Tommy, however, haha i love that kid he's a legend
tori - so for those of you who follow me on DB would know, i have an english essay due today.
megan - ''english essays suck. they should be banned''
tori - she also has the essay due, being in my english class and all.
so we've wagged the first 5 lessons of the day to sit in the library working on our essays.
our word limit is 2000, i've done 500. *dies*
megan - yeah well i've done...194 words...so i'm basically lying in my grave at this present time...
tori - okay, sure you have a good point there megan. and for those of you wondering, megan isnt like italic mann,
she isnt a figment of my imagination. megan is real thankyouverymuch.
megan - damn right nig :D
tori - yes, to many of the questioning people out there i say 'HA!' i do have friends! and they ARE real!
anyway, on with the blogging-ness
we have to compare two texts, this book called 'never let me go', and the worst movie of all time 'blade runner'.
okay, so it's not the WORST movie of all time, i'm sure there's one with worse camera techniques and lighting... and worse everything. but it's horrible top try and analyse.
megan - think 80s sci-fi absolute crap... its so painfull
tori - now, shut up, i know i should be working on my essay right now rather than blogging.
but, quite honestly, i can't be fucked.
ooh, shock horror. tori swore.
tori is very angry right now.
she lacketh the motivation to get off her fat arse and write her essay.
megan - u don't have a fat arse u goober :P
tori - so what?
it'll get done..
it's only due in, oh, you know, 2hours 15minutes
... i'm screwed.
megan - as am I...
Often, I say to people, “can I roll there?”
being incredibly fit and all you can really afford to lessen your daily exercise…
Shut up you.
He’s right though, but in a way, he’s wrong
okay, sure, you keep thinking that
I will. Rolling is rather hard, and by rolling, just to clear things up. I mean the whole, rolling down a hill rolling, except, everywhere you would walk.
Rolling up stairs, for example, is extremely hard.
And uncomfortable
Where the hell are you going with this blog post?
The truth? I have no idea
Actually, I want to talk to you about something
What now?
Ummm, actually don’t worry.
Okay, I wont.
Moving on
I still haven’t completed my Flash project due to my computers increasing gayness and dying ability which it demonstrated just over a week ago.
Basically, as I’ve said before, it crashed, saving the majority of everything except my media.
I felt like throwing it through a window
Which would have been productive, as everything else would be lost then as well
Shut up italic mann, nobody likes you
You don’t even have a blog post without me
I could blog on my own if I wanted
No you couldn’t.
Yes I could.
And I will.
So today, tori did nothing, as usual. She sat around, in media, blogging instead of working, and thinking about Dailybooth and what she would do for her 100th picture.
Nope. I don’t like your blogging.
So I’m going to end this now.
The past two weeks I’ve been going crazy about whether or not I’m the only one in our year to not have finished anything that was due two weeks ago, let alone the stuff due THIS week!
But it’s all okay now, I’m back at school and all the other people have barely finished things either. Except for the select few who have brilliant work ethic and have finished the assignments we didn’t even know about yet.
My computer crashed yesterday morning, and all the animating I’d done on my media was lost. This means starting again yayyyy. I’ve got 4 of 8 voice overs on my computer. One I know is on the way, and so I still need 3. I’m getting in contact with someone who will hopefully be able to do a voice over for me (the legend!). which leaves it at two people.
I need 2 girls to do voice overs for my media production, which was due like three weeks ago
OH NOES!
[ reason number 1 that i am dieing ): ]
Meanwhile…
VEDA? Haha yeah oops… I did record one for the 27th, but it did nay get uploaded as YouTube no-likey my file. And I’ve figured I didn’t like that VEDA anyway so I’ll be re-recording the 27th tonight when I get home, and the 28th. Don’t expect any snazzy editing! I have work to do!
I certainly wont be doing any form of committed blogging or vlogging or.. slogging or whatever.
I truly have no time on my hands, and personally got bored with VEDA after day 18. But I promised myself I’d finish. So I will.
[i'm dieing/failing at VEDA]
I’m sitting in the senior centre during my study right now. With Lauren reading over my shoulder and quite recently exclaiming ‘Hey! Why am I in there?!’.
At lunch, some of the retarded male species in our year decided to put alfoil in the microwave. Therefore, when we went to heat our food up, and not seeing the foil, we looked back to the microwave to see small flames to the left of our food.
Wrenching open the door to salvage our lunch before it burnt a heap of smoke filled the senior centre.
[thus another reason i'm about to die, i'm going to be set on fire by the idiots of our year level]
Fun times. Our year can be so immature.
I feel like ending this as I used to end my emails when I was 14/15
Love Tori,
(Because Tori needs to be loved)

Do you want to die? Do you know someone who’s been in a ‘vegetable’ or non-responsive state for what seems like a painful eternity? Don’t you think it would be kinder if this person was allowed to have their peace with the world?
Nobody wants to die. The prospect seems so frightening. However, if your quality of life was reduced to either nothing, or simple and continuous pain...wouldn’t death seem to be the better option? I believe so.
Oldies, The Elderly, Walking dictionary versions of Wikipedia, whatever you refer to them as, we all know who I’m talking about. The people who have ‘lived for ages’ and ‘know everything’. Over the past decade, the number of elderly people living to the age of 100 years has grown extremely fast. It could almost be said they’re invading. And soon the Guinness world book of records will have to heighten the record age to around 200 years.
I know one of these people. She’s 104 years old, and blames her success on the fact that she never had sugar in her tea. So go now and drink tea without sugar. I know you’ll wonder why you did it after. No matter what you might think after tasting that cup of tea, she still has her brain. She can function relatively well for a 104 year old, and doesn’t seem to be giving up on life too soon. She still remembers everyone’s name, that I love ice-skating, that I made her birthday card by hand for her 103rd and every detail of her life over the past 104 years. She lived through both wars, and now has over 80 direct family members.
You could say that her quality of life is rather high. She has much to live for, and is loved by many. But when it comes for her time to die, when she can no longer think, feel, see or hear... do you think she will be allowed to die? Allowed her right from birth to leave this world behind? Unfortunately this would not be allowed. Due to the rejection of the act of Euthanasia by 90% of the worlds government, she is not allowed to die simply because it’s kinder. If she dies momentarily, they have the right not to resuscitate her, but not to let her go to save her becoming a vegetable.
Now, it’s not as simple as, the patient cannot ask for death themselves, therefore they cannot allow themselves to be Euthanized. No, even when the patient is in so much pain they request death, the doctors cannot help them. So the only option is to give the patient enough morphine so they can no longer complain about the pain, and the overdose on morphine slowly kills them anyway. Would it not be kinder to allow Euthanasia in certain circumstances? I’m not suggesting that because older people are rising in numbers we need to cut back on a few of them, no of course I’m not. I’m simply saying, that if it’s so serious that the patient is not going to be able to continue living consciously, and it’s a proven fact that there is no hope of them returning to conscious sanity... euthanasia should be permitted.
Now, I know first hand how hard It is as a family member to have to make the decision when the doctors ask, ‘if she doesn’t make it...would you like us to let her go?’ as I’ve had to answer that question once before. So I cannot imagine the emotional pain it would cause someone who would have to make the decision that would allow a member of their family to be euthanized. I see both sides of this story. Because even if Euthanasia was allowed, then someone has to make the decision to let that person go. Either a doctor or someone who has known the patient all of their life needs to decide that this person should no longer live.
If an elderly man aged ninety, who has lived a very healthy life for the majority of his existence, suddenly suffers a major stroke that leaves him brain dead to the world. And you could donate four hundred dollars towards research or equipment that would save his life, would you do it?
But what if there is a twenty year old woman in the room next door, recently engaged, also brain dead after a major accident, but in a way not similar to the man in the room beside her. And you were told that four hundred dollars would be enough to save her. But you can’t donate to both patients. And the four hundred dollars will not suffice for both of them as they need different equipment or treatment.
Who would you save?; The twenty year old woman with another sixty years ahead of her, her fiancée sitting beside her and wondering why this has happened. Or the ninety year old man, whose wife has already passed before him, but who has over ten grandchildren he hasn’t even had a chance to meet yet. Tough decision isn’t it.
Of course, if four hundred dollars could not save them, if both of these patients wanted to die, they can not be saved. The woman’s fiancée and man’s children begging the doctors put an end to the agony that is to watch them connected to so many machines and tubes. No response or sound comes from the patient, except the constant beeping of the heart monitor and whirring of the machine which breathes for them.
That does not change the fact that these patients must continue their existence as it is, with no understanding or conscious thought as to what is happening. Because Euthanasia is not allowed, in some countries is even considered as murder, and the families and loved ones will have to watch the patients suffer as they slowly die, because the doctors have to try to keep them alive.
