When the pimp's in the crib ma

Drop it like it's hot.

Hey ya'll. How is everybody going? Studying? Yes?
Well I've been neglecting my blog for a while, so sorry to all you guys who casually visit and find that I have nothing to offer. Story of my life. Anyway.

What to say...what to say...
Well, Hannah has a boyfriend! No, I'm joking. But she sure is getting more action than me. Oh, that girl is a heart breaker. Hard to believe, I know. She's interacted with more boys than I have. So much so that she gives me relationship advice. Relationship advice from a twelve year old! Helene has sunk to a new low.

Helene: Well I kinda like this guy...
Hannah: Well, what you do is you add him on Bebo and tell him to send you Luv.

Anyway, it's suiting that I'm the annoying, teasing big sister who constantly has to read the conversations she has with boys on msn. She goes on the laptop for half the day and, when I don't have work, I usually go see what she's doing. Well, the other day, I looked over her shoulder to see if she was watching the new Vlog by communitychannel, or downloading some terrible music, and she closed the conversation window she was having. Oh, you can tell there was something going on there. So I fought over her for the laptop going, "Oooo, who you talking to? Your boyfriend? Can I meet your boyfriend? What's his name?"

I can't tell you the rest of the story because I know Hannah reads this and she will yell at me.

I'm sorry I left you hanging. But hey, I thought you sourced enough entertainment from me admitting that Hannah gives me advice on boys.

See you all soon,
Helene

Some people think I'm bonkers, but I just think I'm free

Hey everybody.
Long time no talk aye? How have you all been? Studying more than me I hope.
I've been M.I.A because I caught a bad case of the flu. Possibly swine.
Haha, well, I'm pretty sure it isn't swine but I just like saying it because I get to go into 'quarantine'. And we all know what that means. No interaction with Hannah whatsoever.

Yeah, Mum went a bit OTT when she saw the Tamiflu the Doctor prescribed me. She didn't permit Hannah any physical contact with me. She bought some Glen 20 home and "sanitised the air". Oh wait, no! Glen 20 doesn't sanitise the air! The Oust 3 in 1 does that. Obviously I've been bed-ridden long enough to know that advertisement back to front. Anyway, so Mum sanitised heaps of surfaces. She also bought those little dettol hand wash things which don't need water so Hannah can carry them around.

Over the past few days, I've been exploiting my sickness. "Well, how do you do that?" I hear you ask. Well, the only loser in it is Hannah.
I've been settling arguments by coughing on things. For e.g. Dad brought home two of those 4 in 1 pens that he bought from Officeworks. Only one of them had all the colours necessary for school. Dad put it on my desk while I was studying and I was like, "Oh yeah, cool, thanks Dad." And then Hannah comes barging in and goes, "Helene can I swap with you?" and well...here's how it went down:

Hannah: Helene, can I swap with you?
Helene: Why?
Hannah: Just cos.
Helene: Why?
Hannah: I don't like the colours on my one!
Helene: Well I like the colours on my one. What are the colours on your one?
Hannah: Green and purple and stuff.
Helene: Those colours sound just fine.
Hannah: No they aren't! I want to use my pen for school. I need it for school!
Helene: Whose school life is more important right now?!
Hannah: Just give me the stupid pen!
Helene: No, it's my pen! I got it first!

I saw her grabbing for the pen. Think of all this in slow motion guys. And then I did the only thing I knew would secure my future with that pen. You know it. I coughed on it. Quite a lot as well.

And then Hannah stormed away and was like "FINE. I'LL USE THAT GREEN AND PURPLE PEN."


Yes, it's fun being sick when you're me.

Adios Amigos,
Helene

Heyoo...I'm tired of using technology (see what I did there?)

Hey good lookings.
I just finished reading all your updates from the last time I went on the interweb. You guys write a whole lot. I am now officially up to date with all your lives. I am such a dedicated blog follower. Thank me later.
And thanks for the suggestions homies. I think I'm going to take a break from blogging about Hannah today. So, right.

1. Jamie; lol, you had me there!

2. Minh Chau, that thing about that guy asking me out to breakfast was years ago. I was 15 dude. I was scared shitless. Never bring that up again. *Cringes*.

3. Wendy, I play heaps of things on my Wii. Whenever Hannah goes on the Wii, she announces that she is "Wii-ing" and then laughs to herself. Damn. And I said I wasn't going to blog about her today. Oh and I have Wii Sports and Wii Fit and another game which I haven't played yet. Fun-arama.

4. Hanson, sure, I'll give you the low-down on the female kind. Here you go:

WOMEN - UNCOVERING THE TRUTH
Often, men have voiced the opinion that women are overly complicated and impossible to 'understand'. To this, I'm not going to do the female thing and say, "Oh naaah, we're simple as," because that'd be a lie. Yeah, we're complicated. We actually do want gifts when we say that we'd much rather receive nothing for our birthday. When we say, "Piss off, get out of my life", half the time it translates to "Please say you're sorry so I can fall back in love with you." Sound familiar?

"So how do we decode this crazy female double-speak?" I hear you ask.
Well the answer is sort of double-speaky itself. I guess the only way you can 'understand' a girl is to really know the girl, i.e. to listen to her. If you can't decode her, then that basically says you never got to know her in the first place. Am I making myself clear? No? Sigh.

How about I tell you about the things that girls look for in guys. That better?

1. A sense of humour.
Much to your surprise, women actually do prefer their Arj Barkers over their Chace Crawfords. Sure, having stunning looks is all well and good, but making us laugh pretty much trumps all. Girls want someone they can have a good time with, not someone who sneaks off to the bathroom every half an hour to reapply their moisturiser.

2. Gentlemanly-ness.
Okay, women do like to be thought of as independent and strong-willed, but if you do something small like open the car door for us before we step out, I pretty much guarantee you that your lady-friend will melt for you.

3. Do not be up yourself.
"But why do some girls go for the arrogant idiots?" I'm pretty sure you said that in your mind Hanson. And here is le answer: we think we can change them. We go out with a guy who is a bit of an ignoramus and then when he falls madly in love with us and forgets his egocentric ways, we can take credit for making him an angel. Some girls are weird and do like the 'power' which arrogant men seem to have. But most girls, most of the 'good' girls, love the cute ones who spend hours writing up a poem for Valentine's Day.

I think that's all Hans Sona.
Good luck with the ladies *wink*.

See you later amigos,
Helene

hey good lookin', what you got cookin'? how's about cookin' something up with me?

stupid ad.
stuck in my head.

I didn't turn up at school today. Which might've been a bad thing considering I didn't do anything at home. I just played on the Wii and interwebbed it out.
I started getting a headache because Hannah got home from school.
So I ate some stuff, played a bit more Wii. Kinda made it better.
Hmmm I have nothing to write about. I'm surprised you guys even read this. All I talk about is Hannah being bossy to me and my boring school life, which mostly consists of studying.
Maybe I should write about current, controversial events.
Like, you know.... Um. Yeah, maybe I shouldn't make this blog a commentary on topical issues.
But, I would like to talk about something that you, my dear followers, are interested in. Suggestions? Please don't say "Oh write more about Hannah, I luurve Hannah" 'cause that would not be nice.
This used to be my haven away from her. She's ruined everything!

Oh and happy holidays everybody!
Study hard!
Helene

Duuude

How are you guys going?
Gotta tell you guys some news.
I bet you already heard about this, but my sister got into Sefton =). First emoticon of this blog. Woooo. But the heaps good thing is:
For her reward, we're getting a Wii. And you know what that means. Helene gets to play bowling every Saturday. Woohoo.
We're also getting a Wii Fit game thing so hopefully I'll be looking gooood by formal time.
Aunt, Uncle and cousins from Canadia are also over here in Australia. We had them over for dinner last night and my parents and aunts and uncles all sat around the dinner table and talked (very loudly). I think my Dad got a little tipsy. Ah, Asia families.
Oh and yipee my assessments are over for this term! Must. Start. Studying. For. Trials. Hmmm...
I would've made my blog a bit more personal today but my sister is sitting next to me so I shan't.
She always teases me when I write something down and then has to ask me about it. Like those inside jokes with people at school. She must go "Helene, who's that? What does that mean? Helene I have to know everything about your life why don't you tell me anything I have to know. Helene is that your boyfriend? Oooo. It's your boyfriend. Is she your best friend? Where does she live? Does she have a boyfriend?"

I will trade sisters with you any day. Actually, I'll put Hannah up for sale. Wait, I'll just give her away.

Anybody want Hannah? She got into Sefton =).
