DONE MATH

... And I'm actually sad about that:(
I know, I'm a freak. But there's something so comforting about going in to write a test, solving every problem, and being rewarded with a good mark after. Math is something that I feel like I get out exactly what I put in to it. It's comforting to know that I can work hard and get the marks I want.
I wish all of life was like that.

Also, that was my last course that I'll have with some of my grade 12 friends. All my smart contest class friends... bye:(

Honestly, I wish there were more math courses. They may be hard, and a lot of work, and not fun... Pretty boring at times. But I know exactly what's expected of me in them, and I do it. I get this extreme satifaction from solving problems and acing tests. It makes me feel in control of my life. And we all know that most of life's problems AREN'T like that. Solutions in the math world are much nicer than in the ones in the real world. I like that when you write a math test you can block out everything, and just focus on what's exactly in front of you. It's like setting aside all your issues for awhile, and having this little pool of freedom.

So even if I don't really LIKE math... I'm going to miss it, because it makes me feel safe.

Exam Week!!!!!

so I'm finally done my first (and fairly terrible) semester of grade ten. I think two of my favorite moments were my instances with my idiotic science teacher :P I believe i already told you about them though, (the "canada has tropical rain-forest, and not knowing whether india had coast line :S) >So my knew belief is that everything happens for a reason. So this weekend, basically all of my plans were canceled, but it allowed me to well go over to L's house and well......:$ But it was good, i had a very relaxing weekend, and i am now at my dads school for a second time to teach his kids a dance routine :P

post exam... sucky-ness

Hey Girls, so I'm sick.... and things just get better.
Guess what time of month it is :P
Yeah.


I was supposed to sing at a comedy fundraiser thing on Saturday... but I was too sick and my voice sounded gross.
And by gross I mean I mean I couldn't sing a note with out sounding like a dead cow.
Yeah.

Ohwell.
We got someone to cover for me, so that was okay.
But I actually had really wanted to do it :(

KATLIN CAME WITH ME TO YOUTH ON FRIDAY EVENING(lol, i hope you enjoyed that little intro to my exam :P)
That was fun!
Baking is always good.
And apparently I'm really good at Taboo ;)

I watched a really sad movie last night :(
It's called Beaches and it's about these two friends who are SOOOO different.
We should watch it together sometime, if we ever feel like we need a good cry and a half :P

I played hide-and-seek with Taja and Micah for a good half an hour this evening :)
Little kids are so much fun (when they want to be).

Oh guess what... more good news.
I'm not allowed to sleep in my own room anymore, I may not be able to eat any bread(that isn't gross), or any dairy products... or sugar anymore.
My life is going to suck.

And on that happy note.
I bid you all good night :P

whooooofffff

I'm tirrrrrreeddd. Kinda had a busy week. I was wanting to post so bad, but there has been zero internet in res all week for my computer - geemineeee. I'm now :) sitting in my room with my cat beside me :) :) :) :) :) I miss my cats when I'm at school...they should have a res cat. He/she could go from room to room, be cuddled by everyone, and make it soooooo much happier! haha, well at least I have an African Violet in my room. A teensy bit of greenery in the big TO.
I'm supposed to be starting an essay right now, but I have ZERO inspiration and so I thought I should check if the internet connected at home. it does thankfully <3
Strange how much one depends on the internet...wow. Before I went to school I almost never went on the internet. Computers meant educational computer games...oooooo, haha, like Carmen Sandiego!!!! I actually owe it to that game to remember without a doubt the chronology of some major ancient empires...best way to teach history EVER.
I think when I graduate I'm gonna play the whole game straight through, just for kicks. my grad wish ;)
So, I've got an audition coming up in two weeks' time...it's for a contemporary dance school - I'm excited :) I hope it'll be neat and I'm really looking forward to dancing with contemporary dancers.
anyways, guess what? I'm gonna be learning about RRSPs in math. It's for a research project, and I'm looking forward to actually understanding how investments and retirement plans actually work...not that I'm planning on retiring anytime soon :P
but gotta start saving if I want to EVER be able to...come to think of it, I don't really want to "retire," I just want to be able to live with some security in ze later yearzzz. yeah, that sounds about right...
better get onto it. tata for now

CARROTS! (+ hummus :P)

HOKI MO! it is nice to relax :)
This week was really loaded with school work and a lack of sleep. I will be pretty much done by monday night though :)
until next week...haha oh well.
I've been on that edge where it feels like you're about to have a cold... and you do everything you can to stop it haha
Last night was fun, went shopping, and then to celebrate my friend's birthday, and then watched a mooooovieee. Girl's night outs are always enjoyable to have ;)
somehow i managed to stay awake until 1:30 :S which shouldnt have been possible with my lack of sleep lol.
Today involved some light frolicking, much reading, and a bit of napping (on karla's bed hahahaha)
Anyways, Annie and i are currently having a jamming session ;D
see you lovelies soon!

since someone else wrote, i can too :P

So my exam starts in less than 10 minutes... I'm just sitting here, waiting to start.

HOW ON EARTH WILL I BE ABLE TO JUST DO THE EXAM WITH OUT BEING TEMPTED TO CHECK FACEBOOK OR JUST BROWSE THE WEB!?!?!

I feel pretty good about my exam, I know what I know, and what I don't... I guess it didn't matter enough for me to remember :P

Oh well.
After my exam is over, I'm going to go get my hair cut, and then probably going to take Katlin to youth to bake with me.
We might be able to drag Monika along.... we'll just have to wait and see ;)


6 MORE MINUTES TO KILL!!!!

Okay...

Well... what else can I tell you?
I painted my nails last night :P
They're grey now... which looks really good with my pretty blue flower ring(another thing I forgot to show you yesterday Kate!!!!).
lol. What else should I telllll you about my outfit to kill the remaining 4 minutes?

I'm wearing one of the tops I got with my Talize gift card :P
I'm really into a purple phase right now.
My lap top case is purple, my shirt is purple, my toothbrush bracelet that I'm wearing is purple, and my coat is purple too...
haha.
Yeeahhh...

2 MORE MINUTES!!!!!

I brought 5 pencils and 2 pens.... I hope it'll be enough :P
I just went to grab my water bottle... and now I HAVE 1 MINUTE LEFT!!!!!

never mind... it's one o'clock now!!!

Here goes!!!!!

so many places, not enough time...

I'm enjoying that I can do absolutely nothing today, and not even feel guilty. This week was death. But now I have a day off, and it feels great:)
So during my history exam, Mr. Mayot came over and handed me a travel book. He was like, "Oh, I picked this up for you. Wanna look through and choose somewhere to go?" ...that exam was good times lol. Soooo chill/funny/I'm gonna miss that class a ridiculous amount.
But yeah. Now I'm having a hard time figuring out where we should go. I wanted Egypt or Peru or Argentina, but my mom shot those down pretty fast... Now I'm thinking Spain/Portugal or Spain/Morocco. But like, it's SO hard to choose. And I have to think about which trip would have the most interesting tours and which trip would focus on what we're interested in.... I wish we could just show up there and explore haha. But that's not how school trips work. :(
Seriously though, how cool would Peru be. I'd remember that FOREVER.
My mom seems pretty against me going anywhere other than Europe though. She was going on about politics/non universal health care/polio and all... So yeah.
Spain would be awesome, don't get me wrong. I'd be thrilled to go ANYWHERE haha. It just wouldn't feel so "once in a lifetime" ish.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CHOOSE!!!! :S

rings and things and pretty wings...

I don't know, it rhymes :P

Last night mom went with me to spend some of my Talize gift card.
I LOVE THRIFT STORES.
I got two really cute tops :)
And two PRETTY RINGS!!

Katlin and I have a thing for rings... so I know she understands ;)


I had a really good voice lesson today.
I usually have them on Fridays, but my ONE exam is scheduled for Friday, at 1... and is supposed to go for 2 hours.
And my lesson time falls right in the smack dab middle of that time slot.

I'm singing Taylor the Latte Boy for a fundraiser that Gavin's friend is running,  and he's singing the response :P
Those of you who came to see my Summer Camp Concert will know what I'm talking about.
The other one of you... you know who you are :P
(SO MUCH LOVE AND NO NAMES NAMED!!!)

I think I'm going through another one of my weird clothing phases... and I'm kind of enjoy it :D
I'm hoping I'm not as disastrous fashion wise as I was 3 years ago.
I'm thinking that was the last time I went through an EXTREME weird clothing phase...

confused?

so... today was going fabulous for the first time in a while i just felt really relieved. until.......... i got an email. dont you hate that? when an email stresses you out lol. it was about my volunteering. I just took it as me not doing a good job or something...
But thankfully my dear next door dormer came in and settled me haha.
So yeah, i think i ought to return to my floaty relieved state :D
No worries allowed ;)

study break

I don't want to look at another review sheet or study note ever.
Ahhhhhh why do we need exams D:

Also, as much as I love history, I'm super annoyed with it atm. We learned everything that's on the exam within the last 3 days. Somehow that doesn't make sense to me. I should be REVIEWING tonight, not looking at a topic for the first time. Or so I thought at least.

Yeah so, I have a lot of stuff to do still. -.-

Blahhh exams are so stressful this year. I feel like I'm under so much pressure to do well in these courses, because they pretty much determine the rest of my life. I NEED those marks, for scholarships and just to get accepted in the first place. Not like I have the slightest clue what I want to apply for. But math is vital no matter what. So I gotta ace this exam, it's my last shot:S

Okay, time to go search the cupboards for chocolate chips to sooth my pain.... ;)

top o' the morrrrnin' to yeh!

hi all. Happy Robbie Burns Day. :) I'm not scottish but there are a bunch of people in my school with scottish blood who are havin quite the time haha...one guy even borrowed a kilt and has worn it all day :P
weeelll, I just have time for a short post, then off to next class, but today our former academic principal is coming to visit (finally, we never got to say thanks or farewell for his retirement)...tee hee, he's scottish. A very fitting day to pay tribute to him. But I'm supposed to say a few words and give him a card...yikes, I'm nerrrrvous.
but, I gotta run, so I wish you all a wonderful day. And my nails are of medium length Rachel, haha, just for reference ;) but I can totally commiserate with you - not fun to have super short stubs! Good thinking with the colours :)

purple nails... and other details of life

I babysat for my (NOW PERMANENT!!!!) voice teacher Saturday evening.
Her kids are SOOO cute :)

lol.
Her 5 year old boy drew me an esophogus.
There are diagrams to look forward too in the journal ;)
It was a great eveing!
And my ipods battery life lasted just long enough!!!!
It died less than 10mins before they got home, at 11:30pm.

The next day there was a totally awesome potluck at church.
There was actually SO much I could eat.
Mennonites sure know how to make good food :D
mmmm...

I also ate a whole package of Swedish berries this weekend, a role of lifesavers, and I suckered  my mom into buying me sourpatch kids this evening.

I really need to keep my nails shorter for piano now(lol Maya, we've switched places, you with you glorious long nails... that might not be long now... but were last time I saw you... but whatever, you know what I'm getting at) so I've decided that if I can't have my nails long, I might as well keep the colourful. It's a bit of a consolation.
But I'm not really a big fan of short nails on me... but I'm getting used to it.
So to help with the process I bought 2 new nail polishes this evening.
A bright purple one, and a light shimmery green.
I haven't tried the green one yet, but I'm reeeeally liking the purple one, but it's taking forever to dry properly.
Which is kind of annoying.

Also... I HAVE AN EXAM!!!
lol.
I should maybe study for it... but I don't really feel like it :P


I asked Amanda if we could continue with lessons after my 6 weeks, AND SHE SAID YES :D :D :D
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!

I STILL HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT AIDA.
and i really really really want to.
like now.

give me my life back...

Guess who studied ALL day yesterday...
I legit sat in my room, only leaving to get food from the kitchen.
But the sad part is... I didn't even get that much done.
I know, it was terrible:(
So yeah. That was fun. NOT. And then today there was this little "mock meet" for the developmental and precomps. It was so ridiculously long and tedious. Gah. Those kids can hardly make it through a normal practice with lots of work to do, so sitting and watching EVERY routine for EVERY kid pretty much killed them. They were SO bored (as was I), and a few of them just CAN NOT sit still or focus. It drives me crazy!!
Also, way too many of them came late. IT'S A SUNDAY, THERE'S NO EXCUSE. Especially because it was the mock meet. I just don't see how they think it's okay to show up half an hour into it, and just jump into everything with no warm up. AND, a few of them told me they hadn't even eaten breakfast. Come on parents, put a little more effort into it. This is a serious program, and they need to understand that before they commit to it.
Ugh, sorry, rant done.
I'm just so frustrated by the whole developmental program.
On a more positive note, I got to stay with Alex after for the last hour. I really appreciate all the time I get with him, because I feel like I learn a lot of valuable stuff. He's a smart guy, and a good spotter. If I could, I'd come in just to shadow his group, FOR FREE. It would be great experience for me:)
Okay, time for a nap lol. More procrastinating;)

Exams-_-

OMG i miss you girls so much!!!!!!!!!
Its like not even fair:( So funny story, my science teacher is legit stupid!! Its actually kind of great. So a while ago when we were doing our unit on climate change, we were just going over different biomes and such that were in Canada. So she handed out this sheet with climatographs on them for different bioms in Canada. As i looked over them, i came across one saying "Tropical Rainforest" so thinking that that was a little strange i raised my hand and asked my teacher why there was Tropical rainforest down for bioms in Canada. She then tried to tell me that in fact canada had tropical rainforest, its in BC don't you know..... so i told her that BC did not have tropical rainforest, it was TEMPERATE rainforest. And then just on Friday, she was asked a question, although i didn't know what the actual question was, it had something to do with India and she didn't know if it had coast line or not -_- I wonder why i don't like science this year. I'm pretty sure my teacher hates me, i have a recent tendency of making her look really stupid in front of the class.

Well ill probably write later with exams coming up and all, but we need to hang out like really really soon!!!

fixed

MY FLUTE IS FIXED!!!!
It no longer sounds like a dying hippo :)

Yesterday my Gramma was nice enough to take me to my teacher. We drove all the way over, and then it took 30 seconds to fix.
She was just like "Let's see?Which key?OH.It's just a screw*twisttwist*this wasn't a problem last time*twisttwist*Alright, see you later!"
lol.
That was literally what went down. And then my Gramma and I had an adventure on the way home...
We totally went the wrong way.... got pretty lost...and then drove on the wrong side of the road... yeah.
I'm not planning of having that experience again any time soon.


When we finally got back to Gramma's place, we played a few card games, then went out for dinner.
AND THEN!!!
CHOIR :)

Yeah. Basically the highlight of my week, again.
Well, other than seeing my sistars... which just automatically ALWAYS trumps EVERYTHING.
Choir is just so entertaining.
I'm always pretty crazy, and surprised I don't get into more trouble... but whatever.
It's all fun, and I mean no harm :P

Choir is just that place where everyone can completely let loose!
I don't know.
The kids there are just so much fun.

THERE ARE 30 OF US THIS YEAR!
That's the biggest it's ever been!
And not only that, WE HAVE 2 ROWS OF GUYS!!!!!
Which totally beats our grand total of 3 last year :P

Yeah.
And now, I just get to wander around down town in -18 weather today.
Awesome.

hi

wow. it is such a blissful escape to read your posts...whilst eating a crunchy apple. my favourite.
weeeellllll, things are busy, but that ain't new. Math test coming up, chem and bio assignments, much to be done in yearbook and an english essay on the horizon. So, I cut out this one pretty snowflake, among many ogreish ones, in December (out of paper, in case it wasn't your first guess :P ) and it makes me happy whenever I see it. Like right now.
Man, today I was feeling happy (don't remember why exactly) and then two people came up to me, one after the other, and told me I looked tired. Way to ruin my awesome mo' peeps! grrrrr...but then I caught sight of my face in the mirror and got their meaning. I'm pretty darn sure I have some raccoon genetics in me, as far as the dark circles under my eyes go anyways. ;)
but who cares...
I miss you girls SO MUCH...'tis extremely sad that we are no longer spending friday afternoons walking sammy (I love him!!! poor fellow...I miss him :( ) and planning defense tactics. yeah, Penny's legs aren't getting any shorter, so I think we're pretty well prepared. haha
ooooooo, major shin splints. ouch. I dunno what else to do for them...I'm warming them up properly, massaging them, stretching, icing them...speaking of which, I should probs go ice them now...
buenos noches hermanas!
(ha, does that even work?? I have a spanish-speaking friend a few rooms down, shoulda checked with her first...too late X) )
love you all

NACHOS

Today was great :D
Probably because i napped for a bit lol.
Then woohoo off to frolicking with Commander, Pingping, and KK!
magic fries are wonderful!
so are nachos :P
YAYAAAYYYYAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Commander and mosby united again at last tomorrow :D
wooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhh!!!!
Oh and,
I can't wait to brush my teeth tonight!!! (rachel and katlin ;P

FLUTE DISASTER

MY FLUTE ISN'T WORKING!!!!
I had a leak, that was fixed at my lesson yesterday.
But now that same key, that she fixed, is even more messed up!!!!!!!!
Now instead of not closing all the way, it goes down, and then get's stuck and stays down!
So instead of one note sounding off, ALL of them do :(
It's absolutely horrible.
And I was actually motivated to practice today, but I couldn't stand playing when it sounded so awful.
Gah.
Not fun. Not fun at all.

But then again, it isn't technically MY flute, it belongs to my teacher.
But it's what I'm stuck playing for the time being.
And the sad thing is, it's better quality than my flute.
So as much as I want my own back, this one is actually better, and sounds nicer(when it actually works).



Nights hangout with Mosby, Andy and Katlin was pretty great :)
Even though Kate and I ended up skating way longer than was necessary, it was fun.

MMMM.
Magic fries are the best.
And if Katlin ever tries to tell you of them being less than magic, just ignore her.
She obviously doesn't know what she's talking about.


Also. I found my wallet that I lost.
I didn't really loose it... I just put it somewhere where I wouldn't have thought to look.
That's all.


p.s. I'm pretty proud of my spamming skillz. If anyone else feels the need to be facebooked spammed, let me know. I'm more than willing to oblige.

procrastinating, again.

So I thought I'd be smart last night, and go to bed at 9:30.
My plan: get a good sleep, wake up feeling motivated and get some homework/studying done.
Reality: wake up at 2:00am, get a horrible sleep, miss my alarm, NO HOMEWORK DONE.

And now I'm procrastingaing, again.

WHAT AM I DOING???!!! I have 4 exams, I can't afford to not study until the night before!!!


Okay, freak out done.
On another note, I'm sad this semester will be over. I'll miss history majorly. Like, that's the reason I get out of bed in the mornings:P And I'm just starting to become better friends with some people in Challenge and Change. People who I'll never have a class with again, since they're graduating. Makes me sad:(
I really need to ask about peer tutoring a history class. It would be epic.
I'm quite excited for eating fries tonight. Just sayin' ;)

OMGosh, GUESS WHAT!! We have 2 sections of air time for Strip the Streets! I won't be the one talking, because I work Monday nights and that's when it is. But still. I'm the behind the scenes person;)
Watch it. Next monday, on CTV.
And you can come with me and Rachel to the event if you want:)

lovelovelovelovelove

It's so good to finally be able to read something about your lives <3



I had my Aida audition over the weekend.
It went really well.
The movement part was super fun.
It was basically the same kind of style that Cats was last year, except more African :)
I liked that it actually made sense in my brain, and I remembered everything.
Usually I feel like I have to watch someone else while I'm performing, but this was good!

My vocal audition went well too.
I didn't mess up or anything, so that was definitely nice.


Micah's hates me.
Like for real.
And it's making me really sad :(
Also, he's very sick and has been hallucinating... so yeah.

10 and counting... for team Pingping :P

I am currently learning about vincent van gogh in abnormal psych right now lol. reminds me of art club :)
although... i'm learning about his personality disorder so it's not really related to art class... :P
Woweee, last week was filled with stupid stupid drama that i wasn't even directly involved in. Drama can be very draining when your group of friends is wrapped up in it -___-
college boys are dumb and drama causing!
BLAH.
Anyways, i have resolved to hang out with annie and her other buddieoos when my girlies are off with stupidheads :D

10 months today can you believe it???Seems like a long and short time at the same time.... if that makes sense...;)

I got my contact lenses finally!!! yayayayayyyyy!
I really need to get paid lol, stupiddddd getting paid late!
I feel like hitting up the beach :)
I also feel like going to the moovieesss.
I'm so excited to graduate! April!
University apps are in so now begins the painful waiting...
We should go toboganning soon!

Life-.-

Hey so I haven't failed yet js lol
So my life right now is retarded. I don't have enough time and the walking zombie thing doesn't work for me unfortunately. I tend to very quickly turn into a sleeping zombie or just a retarded one:P neither of which are very useful.
So dance has been going really well (I think) I'm done all of my solos (i think i told you girls that) and everything else is getting there oh and ballet and point are done and are pretty great, i think, and it helps that my mom actually thinks I'm working hard and all that (and gives me credit for it) and on Friday during my exam class (we have a Friday class just for me and Angela to do all of the really hard exercises in the work in addition to our two regular ballet classes with the rest of the seniors) Angela was gone to Ottawa because her brother had a hockey tournament so she had to go to that and it was just me and my mom(oh goodness lol) and she said right now she thought id pass all the exercises that we did that day which is good. Also in senior open, we have ramps this year like for props in our dance and i get to slide down one, its very exciting lol.

School is not going so great... I'm totally exhausted all the time and i don't get nearly enough of my work done and i feel like all i want to do is sleep but i never have enough time to. Luckily i started preparing for my exams, like the first units in both math and science and they're not seeming like a totally foreign language maybe just like french or smart people language lol, so i don't think it will take me as long to study as i expected which is good. But even for exam week i have so many things i want to accomplish and the times getting shorter and shorter by the minute being filled up with things i have to do. Hopefully next semester will be a little easier on me.

Oh i also will be getting my dads old computer in my room cause he upgraded to a better one and so it will have the totally ghetto monitor and everything but it'll still be nice to have one in my room :) oh and as of right now lc is not a very nice person-.-(those are initials btw)
But I'm going to go to bed now and hopefully sleep soundly and i will try to blog on Wednesday although I'm not making any promises
Love you all so much times a billion

oh dear...

I need to post. I was hoping I'd find a good time to post, when some nice things are happening, but those haven't exactly happened and I haven't posted in way too long...so here goes. This'll be a short one, I'm at the end of my 'weekend' time. You know when you look forward to the weekend all week just to be able to get things done, and then all of a sudden it's the end of the weekend and nothing is done? welll.....
Everything seems to be at its apex of stress right now; I have had so many applications to fill out, for university programs, post-secondary dance programs, hopeful scholarships...things are buuuusy. Actually, if I were to detail everything else, it might sound funny. All the seemingly trivial stuff that I need to do that hasn't gotten done and that I'm exhausted about...wow, I can't even write. yup, I'm exhausted. Three days this week I went to bed at 12 and woke up at 6:30, so much homework and major tests etc, and I can't seem to recover. I'm a walking zombie...I know I'm walking, cause my shins are pretty painful and remind me that my nerves are in great working condition. yay for that anyways...
I just need to pull things together, focus on one moment at a time, and believe it or not I'm actually feeling a little better having written a bit of it down.
You girls never cease to make me feel better. I feel like I'm with you right now, and I'm putting on my toothbrush bracelet at this very moment. good, it's on...now, onto sewing pointe shoes so that my feet don't die.
love you all and miss you

hey pretty lady

Last night I decided to have a photoshoot with myself. I know, I'm lame. But it was fun:P
Here's what I ended up with...

happy(real)100

Congratulations girls, we've made it to 100!

I know I'm really enjoying this adventure of blogging.
I love having an extra way to keep in contact and know what everyone is doing.
Or, at least some of what everyone is doing.

These last 100 post have been full of everything.
Things change so fast.
I can't believe that we've already been for almost 6 months!

Happy 100 everyone!!!!

I love you girls.
Let's keep on blogging!

so annoyed -.-

I'm so sick of people ignoring me, ditching me, and just being lame friends.
Not you guys obviously:P
And I won't name names, since this IS the internet haha. But really, I want to just slap some people. As much as I love them, I'm also on the verge of completely giving up. We're drifting, and I don't even know if they care.

On another note... I have my C&C presentation, and I'm not even close to being ready. I should probably be practicing, since its worth 15% of my mark... Lol. But I'm so unmotivated. For EVERYTHING haha. All I wanna do is hang out with friends, gossip, laugh, get hugs, eat fries, listen to the Script's new album (so good!), sleep in...

I'm just not in the mood for all this LIFE crap. I need a holiday haha


OH!
Also, some music I want to share with you. All by The Script, since I love them.
Science and Faith
Walk Away
Nothing
For the First Time
Exit Wounds
This is Love

ARGH!!!

WHY DO RESPONSIBILITIES NEVER END!!! DX
they're not even remotely enjoyable. and they take up so much damn time!!!!!! Dx
I just want to blow everything off. Jeezalooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lol
Back into doing things i have to do instead of what i want to do -______________-

1st Post of the New Year :D

Hey :D
so I am going to keep my resolution! OK so right now I'm supposed to be doing a science project but what ever its totally lame anyways! OK so a little update:

School has been interesting :P especially art class lol dance has been good, its so weird i was just thinking about it, we've only been back for a week :S it feels like forever right now.Oh i also have to show you my 2 point perspective room cause i got it back from my teacher, and i got 100% on it!!!!!!!!! :D so happy!!! Oh and funny story, so in science we watched "The Day After Tomorrow" the first two days back and before my science teacher started the movie she was like "pay attention cause we'll be referencing back to the movie as we do our unit on climate change". Then today, I told my dad what she had said and he was like "NASA has made a list of worst science movies... apparently "The Day After Tomorrow" was only out done by "2012" lolololol You gotta love stupid teachers:P Oh and then on friday, she started our our climate change unit and we were learning like why there are seasons and day and night.....nuf said?

Dance is going good, were just finishing up some numbers and I'm done all of my solos (Y) and i am in love with my lyrical solo (its to "glitter in the air" by Pink if you care). So today I performed competition numbers for the first time, not all of them just my ballet numbers for this thing at the studio called the ballerina tea party for all the little kids (like 3-5 years of age) basically to inspire them, so i did my point solo, point group and ballet group :) Ok so i dont know when the show case is yet, but as soon as i know ill let you girls know cause i really want you guys to come:D oh and I'm hopefully doing my advanced 1 in aproximately two months....

So on march break my dads going to Honduras or something for his bday (without me >:( i might add) and so he wants to get like scuba equipment and stuff and a sun shirt so he doesn't kill his skin and everything and so he and i might be taking a trip to Toronto together and go shopping, cause i want to go to lululemon, all i can say is that it will be interesting lol but I'm actually kind of excited (he wants to go to MEC lol) but yeah so I'm going to bed now but I'm going to try and write at least once a week :D (be proud lol)

oh and I'm a little excited for the potential ideas for my sweet sixteen lmao new years with Didi and Kate<3<3<3<3<3

Good night
love you girls lots

why did I ever hate skating??

I've fallen in love with this random pair of skates that I found in the basement. I guess they're mine now;)
I haven't been skating in like 3 years, but I went yesterday with Rachel, today with Taja (and Rachel lol) and I might go with them tomorrow, and maybe Tuesday. I'm a little obsessed ... but its ME, what do you expect:P
Yesterday was actually pretty epic and really really fun. And random lol.
Rachel and I went skating, and were planning to get hot chocolate. But on the way to Coffee Culture, we decided we'd rather have fries from Bobby O'brien's. And then that turned into wanting the 35 cent wing special too lol. So we had dinner there. Not our usual type of meal (sushi, pupusas, etc.) but kind of amazing nevertheless.
I woke up craving more fries this morning. They're kind of addicting.
Sorry I ruined the magic of them Rachel.. I can't help it that I'm a nerd and I know everything:P
Yeah so, thats pretty much my weekend so far. My hands are stained yellow from the chicken wings we ate tonight at Rachel's (MORE wings haha, whats with us this week) which is pretty random. And now I'm eating a chocolate bar that I found under the Christmas tree. It's really yummy lol. I don't even know who's it is, but oh well:P
I should probably go to bed soon. Somehow I never get enough sleep anymore.
Savannah has yet to keep her resolution...... Just sayin'

Explanation

I just wanted to explain why(if you noticed) that it says we have less posts than we used to.


On the blogger dashboard, it said that we had 100 posts. But if you looked at the blog itself, it would seem otherwise.
The reason being, sometimes someone would start a post, and then never actually publish it.
I won't name names, but we were all guilty at some point.
Most were just titles without entry's or a couple words, which were also in a later post by the same person.

So I took the liberty of deleting those.
I hope you are all okay with that.
Nothing is lost. All the content is in another post.
So I'm thinking what happened with those, is that someone would start writing, not have enough time to finish, and then just start another post later with all the same info and stuff in it.

I hope that makes sense.
I basically just wanted to let you know why we are no longer at 100 posts.

Lets get there again.
For real this time.

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!

Now I can blog without feeling like I'm taking over... and being the only one who writes anything :P

Being back at choir was soo fun.
Last night, and tonight.

lol. Monika's impromptu sleepover was pretty epic.
Superman is awesome.
BEST TV SHOW EVER.

;)



I'm having second thoughts about quitting glee...
New years was SO much fun!!!!
And I'd go through it all again, just for that feeling.
But I don't know if it would actually be worth it in the long run.

I JUST DON'T KNOW.

In class

Back into the rhythm... sort of..
School is weird so far lol.
I finished all my stupid paperwork at least :D
I'm nervous about my field ed placement :S
It starts friday.
I feel like life is getting too filled up with dumb things that waste my time already!!!!
My dads birthday is soon, CRAP- lol.
Yesterday was nice. After i finished all my paperstuffffff i hung out with Pingping and then went to the library and thennnnnnnnnnnnnnn (yup life gets better) I slept over at Rachel's houseeee :D :D
Superman is the best!
;)

withdrawl symptoms

I'm almost having second thoughts about gymnastics..
I miss just being in the gym. And being upside down. Running full speed at the vault. Pointing my toes extra hard on beam.
I miss having something that consumes my entire BEING.

Except... That's exactly what I wanted to leave behind. I ran away from it, because I was so scared that there wouldn't be anything left of me OTHER than gymnastics. I felt like gym was tearing me apart.

But now without it, all I can think about is how much I want it back.

I start craving things like just doing a handstand, or sitting in pike with overstraight legs, or presenting. I want to be that girl in a shiny gymsuit with gelled hair.

I debated what I would have to do to go back. I could do it, if I did it now.
And I know it's not worth it. I left because I didn't want that that anymore.
But I can't help thinking about how things COULD be.

...But I'm starting to remember all the things I loved about that place.

itunes

I just bought my first batch music from itunes :)
I didn't realize how much I really missed justed listening to music.
But now I'm lovng it.


new years eve was so much fun.
I'm really going to miss Glee... but I'm excited about all the other exciting things I get to do!
It's time to move on for now, but you never know, I may be back ;)


Apparently January is now 'no TV month' in our house.
It's going pretty well so far.
Taja's already leared to knit, and this morning we all made board games to play. Both of Micah's are superhero related, and Taja's was Strawberry Shortcake... I don't really know why :P But that's what she picked.
I think this is just what we needed. The kids had been spending WAY too much time infront of the set.


I'm counting on Savannah getting her act together and working on her resolution of ACTUALLY BLOGGING!!!!
Sooner than later would be nice...


Everything will be starting up soon.
I'm pretty glad about that.
I'm really lacking motivation for anything right now, so hopefully that will change when I actually have stuff to do.


I practiced the pianon for a whole hour today.
I'm pretty pleased about that.
I feel like if I stick with it I will actually be able to get me grade 8.

back to school....

It feels like we never even left that place. It's just right back into the crazy busy routine, except even more now because exams are coming... ugh.
Mr. Mayot is back, so I gave him his card. Which he liked. But I find it really weird that he just comes back and jumps into teaching again with no explanation. I guess I can see why he would want to pretend he was never gone, but I dunno... It just doesn`t feel right. And now I`ll never know where he was or what was wrong.
It WAS nice to see my school friends. Lunch was good lol, and I`ve missed Erin in physics. But the thrill of seeing them will last about until the end of the week, and then I`ll just be missing you girls:(
OH, plus I got asked out... sort of. Lol. Remind me to tell you about it sometime.

Okay I really need to go get ready for school. Anyone wanna join Rachel and I for skating on Friday?
Anyone have some skates I could borrow? :P

La Baie :P

I owe you a Montreal update!
It was really an amazing trip.
Being independent of any adult influence, and living with best friends is truly something else.
I'm going to miss them all more than ever now :\
Hmm some things we did--- FROLICKED!!!
I bought liquor for the first time lol.
we went to Old Montreal which was beautifullll.
We shopped till we dropped ;)
We went up to this big hill and you can literally see the wholee city!
We clubbed on new years in the tallest building in Montreal :D
not sketchy at all-very classy club.
There's so much more which will be documented in the journals but for now hopefully this is relatively satisfying to you :)
Living with pingping for four days really felt not stressful, and just... 'right':)
It's funny seeing french signs without any english everywhere.
Oh the title, its a joke at "The Bay" store in montreal lol. same with "Le gym" hahahaha, oh i will miss all the laughter from the last few days <3
