Yo, its Salma your checkin out at the moment.
Interests include:
-surfing aussie waters (you'll find me usually at manly or at my secret location)

-shredding guitar noise with my neighborhood band (to the dismay of my parents and their parents hahah)

-Photographing. Sometimes the world has too much beauty i feel faint that i cant capture it all. I get pissed off when i dont have my camera with me to capture awesome stuff.

- Simple things in life amaze me.

-Sitting alone and thinking about the world, or sitting by myself playing acoustic guitar in a park or something.

I have everything..except good grades!! PLZ HELP!

Journal #3

Mann i was thinking a couple of days ago how fricken lucky i am as a teen. I practically have everything all teens and young adults would only dream of. Its weird cause i seriously dont even know where all this money to buy them comes from but funnily enough i pay for them myself.... hmmm secret lender??? i dont know. I do have a casual job at a surf and skate shop, but i hardly work like once a week, even once a month for like 3 hours cause i have my year 12 exams now which is kinda more important than serving hot surfy guys and selling them surfboards and skateboards. So that job practically buys me my lunches. Although I have all these luxuries (listed below) i find it difficult to get top grades (i'll explain in detail after my "short" list below hehe)

Anyway so this is mostly what i got: (these are all purely mine and practically in my bedroom)
* Acer Laptop
* iPhone 3GS
* Massive 50 inch Panasonic plasma tv
* Canon 1000D DSLR camera
* Fender Stratocaster electric guitar
* Custom Gibson Les Paul electric Guitar
* Massive amplifier and a little version aswell so i dont cause drive my family insane :)
* Cort Earth 1500 acoustic guitar
* Ipod nano
* like 5 other mobiles still worth over $200 each(yes i change mobiles like every year)
* Pioneer Surround sound system with 10 speakers and subwoofers
* Armani, Chloe, Burberry, Boss, Guess and other designer labels- variety of clothes, bags, wallets and shoes (too many to individually list)
* Like a million outfits and party clothes
* Queen sized bed (ok maybe im not so cool on this one)

sooo im guessing u get the idea... BUT the real Problem is my BlOODY SCHOOL GRADES. Dont get me wrong im not a bad student, nor do i get spoilt by my parents ( i dont even go to a private school, not that i would want to cause public is the real deal!!). I sort of have to work my way to everything and sometimes i try really hard only to fail.

Ok so my grades aernt THAT bad. This year i got:
95% in Business Studies
80% in Economics
75% in Legal Studies
60% in adv english
and i failed Extension Maths :(

So im not TOO bad, but the maths and english ARE KILLING MY LIFE!! plus i should be studying now instead of writing this, which is partially the reason behind my crappy grades so ill sum up here and i want to know WHAT YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT ALL THIS and what i could do to STOP procatisnating and actually put my head down and study and also how to improve in extended responses if your awesome at them.

  • Listening to: Witchdoctor by Little Red (not my typical music)
  • Reading: more like skimming over my maths notes
  • Playing: riffs, solo's and melodies on my guitar
  • Eating: im actually cooking.. better check on it eeekk
  • Drinking: Water

Devious Info

  • Current Residence: Sydney, Australia
  • Favourite genre of music: Anything, depends on the mood of the situation and time.
  • Favourite style of art: Abstract
  • MP3 player of choice: Ipod- what would i do without it !!!!
  • Tools of the Trade: Canon 1000D
