Hello! I thank you for stumbling upon my humble abode- probably by accident. But the thing is that you have visited me out of all of our fellow Wattpadders (which would be.... a big number) 

So, here's... me
~I live in the northern hemisphere
~I'm a hopeless romantic and a cynic- sounds quite contradictory, but... it's just me. 
    I always wish for happy endings, but I know that it's impossible.
~I am a procrastinator... So I apologize in advance for the snail paced uploading rate :P
~Cantabile: Italian musical term; "In a singing style"
~This is my first time writing... So feedback (encouragement and critique alike) is appreciated! ^__^
~"Knowing doesn't always mean believing, believing doesn't always mean knowing."
~"There are no true happy endings, only happy memories."
~I've never ever ever ever ever finished a book/story/novel before... It seems really amazing how someone can stick through with the whole idea (I usually lose interest/motivation/inspiration for it after the first few chapters)

BOOKS!
~I recommend: The Help by Kathryn Stockett
~First book I've ever read on Wattpad: The Last Dance by xoStardust (go check it out if you like historical romance!)

I might not be uploading as fast (if at all) these days, but that doesn't mean that I've disappeared off the face of the earth. I'm just spending more time reading since I've got a ton of schoolwork. So I'm not dead guys~! <3

The tests were ok... I messed up a bit on one of them but.. it's over and done with :)
I'm pretty old :( 11 (do you guys say junior or grade 11?) What about you? 
We move up a grade after summer break, just like you guys! But we have midterms/finals since our school year is divided into two. So, yeah, we do have them two weeks after christmas break ^__^
Summer camps are really fun, there are tons around here... Some at those universities and one at my school. The kids there are sooo cute too :3
I can't believe it.. I want to move to Australia... YOU GUYS ARE SO LUCKY TO COUNT POWER WALKING AS A SPORT =-=

Haha, why does it start on thursday? Don't you guys usually start the week on Monday or something?

@Cantabile Tests alright? What year are you in? And, after that question, when do you actually move up a grade then, because we start a new grade after each Summer Holiday, and obviously you cant have a major test right now because youve just come back from the two weeks holdiay at Christmas if you guys start a new grade at the beginning of the hear. Or maybe you can. I have no idea. 
Yea, power walking is actually a sport at my school. We do it for P.E in yr 9 to reduce costs. You can volunteer at summer camps? And fhey last for 4 WEEKS?! 
You are definitely right on that sentecne about not doin anything! i usually say that!
Yea, its cool going back to school. But the early mornings and the....MATHS AND SCIENCE! And, of course, the homework :( Sigh. I am going back to school on Thursday. I have gotten used to holidaying for a month.

Haha, yep! I finished all my tests the past week, so all I have to do is homework! 
Walking should totally count as a sport, I mean, those old ladies that speed walk dress up so snugly in their tracksuits and try to outwalk each other, don't they? ;)
And yes, we are bored to death by the end of the two months... *sigh... The first week is like "OH YEAH SCHOOL'S OUT TIME TO VOLUNTEER AT SUMMER CAMPS WITH LOTS OF ADORABLE KIDS IN IT" Second week "Awww, look at those cute kiddies!" Third week "Wow... they're really loud and hyper..." Fourth week "I can't wait for this week to end~"
And then, by the last week, you're like "Oh darn, I didn't do anything productive over the summer! Or exercise!" You're basically really glad that you're going back to school....
I would much prefer year round schooling with breaks inbetween each term!

@Cantabile Just TWO WEEKS? So short! But we don't get breaks if other people do exams. Lucky you don't have them. Spoiling your lovely week with homework. Tut tut. 
We had this "premiere's sporting challenge" in primary school, and we had to colour in bubbles of how many hours of exercise we did each week. The teacher was very lenient-walking around the shopping centre counts, walking counts, basically anything counts. So I coloured in a whole bunch. I love walking! The satisfaction of taking over the person infront of you. I sometimes try to walk faster than everyone else, because there's really nothing else to do. It leaves me puffing and hot when I arrive at the station. Good in winter. Bad in summer. Even worse with a heavy bag :( So, in conclusion, my favourite sport is walking to the station and trying to walk faster than everyone else. 

Well, we all have basically a bit more than two months (well, I think we have a week or two more than you guys) of holidays. We just have it more spread out than you. Because, as you said before, you HAVE A WHOLE TWO MONTHS OFF! You must be so bored by the end of it :) Well, I guess we ARE relaxed :) Ehehee.

Oh my goodness.. I'm so jealous...
Our Christmas break is two weeks...
But I get a full week off now because all the students have exam week next week and I don't have any exams XD too bad my teachers still give me homework...
My main source of exercise comes from walking too! So when our school asks us to keep track of the exercise that we do, guess what I write down? (other than making stuff up) --walking! It's a wonderful sport, no? :P

wait a second... Why do you guys have so many breaks?! We have two semesters too, but it's like.. breezing straight through with basically no breaks other than Christmas. We go from September to June, with two weeks off in December and then in March....
>_< whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... You guys sound so relaxed!

Eh, Northie, did I give an image of me as exercising often? Nay! Swimming those laps was the first time in YEARS. First time since my bro was born, and about a year beofe that. And my bro is two and a half. My main exercise on a school week is walking to the station. 15-20 mins of sorta power walking. 20 mins if you are really slow. So yea. But theres sport and P.E, but you get me point.

Oh, that 46 degrees was just a one timer. But yea, it can get pretty hot. No,our longest holiday is from about a week before Christmas until the end of January. It includes Christmas, New Year, and Australia Day. And then we have two weeks of holidays every 9-11 weeks. This divides the year in four Terms. Or two Semesters. How different are we compared to you? Are you enjoying holidays, and braving the cold for school? Oh, and cool air and fog recieved! Over and out, Southie.

@TheScribbler I find that excercising is kinda pointless since I usually come back home and proceed to laze around and eat a lot of junk food.. So... I've kinda given up on it :/ ehehe~

46 degrees Celsius is really hot.. like... summers are usually around or under 30... So unless you're talking about a human oven... :P Do you guys have a long break during winter then? when it's summer up north?
I welcome the virtual warm air, here's a bit of cool air and a ton of fog for you!

Yea, summer Christmas isnt really a big deal when you have it every year, though. Haha. Aka fat. I went swimming today, like properly, dodgily swimming laps after a few years of non swim activity. I stuffed myself with food afterwards. And, after eating, my mum casually said, 'You know one way to lose fat is to NOT eat that much after swimming?'. And then she said more about how we never really did that-we always ate and stuff. 
It's all nice to think warm, but when it was 46 or something degrees celsius? When you literally felt like you were in an oven? No. We could use abit of snow sometimes. :)

Yea, I HAVE heard of White Christmas, but just not in the circumstance of sitting at home on a hot Christmas listening to a song go on how wonderful a cold Christmas was. Oh, Frosty. I just know the line " Frosty the snowmaaan!" A snowman. A song bout a snowman. 
Ok, Southie. I will officially send a whoosh of hot, virtual Australian air to you :)
