[Good Bye Jon!]

It's 6pm right now. My dad, aunt, cousin and sis are in this same room enjoying the AC. This morning we didn't do much. Watched Chasing Liberty and the Wedding Planner this morning. Then waited for Jon and Tris to come. Had lunch at Moven Peak. Spaghetti...blechhhhh...wasn't what I expected it to be. I mean who puts peanuts in spaghetti?? It wasn't regular spaghetti. It had cream sauce with chicken, and bbq sauce..hmm what else was there..green peas...corn..baked mozzerella on top. I was gonna get the baked spaghetti from before.. But.. maybe they changed cooks or something? 2 years I haven't been back. Maybe.. haha..Tris and i had the same dish while Joey had lasagne. That was a bit more normal. Spinach, cheese, tomato...yes...Tristan's watching me type this and he's correcting every mistake. I'm like ARRRgh..Joey's singing "The Raking Song". hmm I wonder what she ate. Oh yeh.. Ice cream. You know heat and ice don't really go together. When the two meet it causes Joey's "annoyingness" After lunch, we went back to my grandparents and watched the "Under One Roof" tape we found. Haha back to the good ol' days. And here we are now.. sitting in this cold room. Actually it's not that cold. Just colder than outside. Jon's leaving to KL later or maybe has already left.

Tristan just showed me this site.. It tells you about your name. This is what my name is...

Description of Your First Name of: Jamie

Although the name Jamie creates the urge to be reliable and responsible, we emphasize that it causes procrastination, lack of confidence, and the inability to realize your goals and ambitions. This name, when combined with the last name, can frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses in the fluid systems, and worry or mental tension. As Jamie you are rather serious-minded, responsible, and stable. You have the gift of tact and diplomacy, and possess a charming, easy-going nature which endears you to others. You have a serious desire to understand the heart and mind of everyone, and could be very effective in a career or in volunteer work where you are handling people and serving in a humanitarian way. This name also gives you a love of home and family, and as a parent you would likely be fair and understanding.

[Reunion dinner II]

It's 10:38pm and most of the guests that came for dinner have left. Today was..meh.. I guess a pretty busy day. Follwed Colin to go fetch Tris from school.. came back then went out for lunch at some noodle place. Then came back to my grandparents and Jon fiddled with the computers. I put on Duplex, with Ben Stiller and Drew Barymoore...Barrymore..Barymore...blahhh...That was funny.. little old ladies are not to be trusted...or pitied...haha..anyway..my cousins left after that..Then my aunts and I went out to go run errands.. Collecting food for the dinner. Had to drive to so many places. It's like a little town that has everything and you just drive from spot to spot.. heh.....It would have been faster if there weren't so many crazy drivers on the road. When we were fetching my cousin from school there was this guy driving right smack in the middle of the road. I mean jeez.. MOVE! Dinner was great.. We played the story game, where everyone has to say a word and we make up a story. Hilarious...Jon's supposed to post it up on his site...that was pretty much the whole day..can't believe that...another day has passed.. We'll be heading to Penang this Friday. Colin and Shirley are gonna drive.. i think..I guess all i can do is... wade?? We shall see..My OTHER cousins, their mom and my grandmother are gonna meet us there. Jon's leaving for Melbourne on Thursday. Too bad he doesn't get to follow us to Penang. Back just in time for Winter.

[Change is gooooooood]

I did my hair yesterday. Cut it short.. well shorter.. also straightened it. I sent Lily the picture of me. Hmm yesterday I went to Ipoh Parade. Parkson Grand?? I get confused with the names. My aunt, sis and I walked around while my mom and dad did their foot reflexology? yeh something like that. Lotsa stuff to see. Still have to go back to that gift shop with the discount card. We couldn't get anything in there coz my OTHER aunt has a discount card for it and we didn't have it. I got more star paper for Krissy. Still figuring out what else. I don't think I can get a lot here. Wanna go back to Singapore to shop. Didn't see much rackets here either. Well there are some. Like Yonex Carbonex..Wilson.. no MP.=( After walking around we met my parents for lunch and then headed to the hairsalon. My uncle works there. Hair Port. Hmmm Sat for about 4 and a half hours.. They tugged, pulled, combed, brushed, cut, burned my hair. The hair dryer is soooooooooooooo hot. The hair iron is soooooooooo hot.. and the lady like doesn't care about your scalp or something. IT BURRRRRNS...I had dinner with my cousins. Colin, Jon and Tristan came over. Then we watched our home videos...then my aunt's videos..

[Arrival]

wow... I am back in Singapore. Well right now actually I'm in Ipoh, Malaysia, visiting my relatives. So where should I begin?? I left YVR Airport on Weds, 23rd. Siong Chin sent us to the airport and we checked in and had breakfast at Burger King. My dad found out that his palm pilot died. So that's his laptop and palm pilot that are dead. The custom officers weren't the nicest of people. We had to empty out our cameras, cd player, laptop, palms... They lady swabbed it with some cloth and that was it. I walked around the Van. Airport for a bit and couldn't figure out how to get to the other side of the glass where the shops where. lol. I ended up walking back to the waiting lounge. We finally got on the first plane. JAL, 9 hours to Narita Airport, Japan. That was a crappy flight. It was an old plane. No personal tv screen. I had to bear with it for 9 hours and they only put the movies on like 2 to 3 hours into the flight. They put on Along came Polly and then right after, Peter Pan. The only part I liked about Peter Pan was Peter. He's so cute!! When we were at Narita Airport, ew kinda got lost at the beginning. We weren't sure where to go. BUT we figured it out. Got a cart which was half the size. So cute! I took some pictures. But prob won't be able to post them up til I get back. My aunt took a picture of me this morning when I was online and I sent it to Wanta. So fast!!!! Anyway, we looked through some of the shops and of course everything's sold in yen. SO my dad and I walk to the bank or exchanging thingamajig and we exchange 20 CAD for i forgot how much in Japanese Yen. Like 1000 something.. 794??? Something like that. I got a Hagen Daz ice cream bar.. mm mm gooooood. Then we figured out that in order to use the internet in the airport you needed 100 yen in coins. So we had to split the bill. I got ANOTHER bar.. mmmmm *drool* ... After 3 hours of waiting, we left Narita at 6pm, Japan time for a 7 hour flight. This one was a lot better. Personal Tv Screen, Music, Games. I didn't play around with the games tho. I watched The Butterfly Effect. Really good movie. But it was kinda scary when you watch it alone with the headphones on and I couldn't hear it properly with the jet engine making all that noise so I turned it up but then when the scary bit comes I'm like WHOA. We arrived in Changi Airport, Singapore at 11:30pm I think. Or midnight. Got a taxi and as I walked out those doors. MAN it's so damn hot. FEEL THE HUMIDITY!!!!!!! My mom and aunt were still awake when we came home and we kinda woke my sister up too. I saw my cousins in the morning and called up my friends. We went to Suntec City for the Singapore Duck Tour. I still don't know why they call it a DUCK tour. Nothing to do with ducks. Probably coz it's like a car, boat...something.. It runs on land and on water. We learned some things about the Skyscrapers. Things you wouldn't learn in school. I mean I think tourists who visit probably will end up knowing more about Singapore than the kids who study here. All the skyscrapers and buildings were built to look like something. I also learnt that the Fountain of Wealth in the centre of the 5 Suntec Towers is like the centre of the palm and the five towers are like fingers. I went out for ice cream with Shujun opposite my grandmother's house. We went to coffee bean.. mm mm good. Great ice cream. Caught up to old times. Then we went back to my grandmother's place to grab my stuff and I was going to sleep over at Shujun's. We watched Win a Date with Tad Hamilton. So sweet. I like that movie. Just it was kinda......hmm short?? It's this girl, she wins a date with Tad Hamilton and they fall in love. But then her close friend likes her too. It gets complicating. Anyway, I was gonna fall asleep while watching that movie. Not coz it was boring, but I was feeling REALLY tired. My eyes were gonna close. I had to keep drinking water to stay awake. Aunty Avery sent me home that morning coz Shujun had to leave for school, Chemistry. For 6 whole hours. Eep..So I was home with my cousins, Sean and Ally.. oh yeh and Joey. My mom and dad went out for breakfast with some friends and when they came back, my mom and aunt went out to Holland Village. Then my dad ditched me to go to Sim Lim Square. So I was left babysitting my cousins and sis. Made a mess... Gave them hotdogs for lunch. Then they had freezies and it got all over. I just gave up after a while. That evening, we went to have dinner with Aunty Amy, Uncle Kevin and Linus. Forgot which mall it was. Got some stuff for Krissy and Diane. Still haven't found anything for Lily or Wanta and still searching for David's badminton polo. I've seen a few rackets. No MP99 just yet! I've seen Armotecs a lot. We left for Ipoh last night and ta da here I am. I guess I should end my PARAGRAPH now.. lol

[Last day of Grade 9...done]

Sigh.. Grade 9 is officially over...This year was full of memories.. Been through OH SO MUCH... Made so many new friends.. Grade 8[Carolyn's gang], Grade 9[too many to name], Grade 10[Badminton people], Grade 11[Badminton people].. sigh..so many hardships.. so many fun times... so many birthdays.. so many all nighters.. so many phone calls.. so many laughs... so many cries... so many bad times.. so many good times..sigh.. Well I was thinking today was gonna be a regular day.. like go to classes sit through boring stuff and all.. Lily and I went to french. Mme Waterton bought 3 WHOLE cases of donuts!!!!!! 3 WHOLE cases! that's 36 donuts! for 2 classes of french.. Counting every class had about 5 people in each.. Ok maybe the block D class had more students that wanted to come to class.. "Good Students".. Our class was pathetic.. We had like 5 people.. wait lemme count.. Me, Lily, Wanta, Crystal, Chelsey, Andy, Jason, and Jonathan I think.. wait then Jon came a bit later.. We watched Meet the Parents... I ate a honey dip donut.. mm mm good.. Lily, Wanta and I left.. Ms Waterton was like ... are you guys leaving? and we're like yeh and she's like.. ok go.. I don't think she wanted us in class.. Well she didn't mind.. but she didn't mind us leaving either..We walked to the gym to see "KG".. Ms Robinson came out and was like "Aren't you guys supposed to be in class" ... Lily mumbled something under her voice.. We walked to the forest.. and then Krissy's portable.. Then second block came and we walked to Lily and Wanta's science class to find out their mark.. then left to go to Giant Foods.. to get some pop for our little "picnic".. I brought 2 bags of chips... We had just a little bit more time left.. so we walked up to David's SS class to see if he was in there.. and yes he was.. talked to him for a bit.. we kinda sneaked around school.. but hey so were a lot of other people.. psh they say we can't wander the halls but everyone does it??Anyway, it was just 15 mins left so we talked to him for a bit. There were 3 people in his class.. him, Joonhee and someone else.. kinda pathetic.. wonder why they still have the class..I got Mrs Shilliday to sign my yearbook..omg.. when David was talking to us.. GUESS WHO just HAD to show up?! The person I hoped NOT to meet today.. MR HUZYK.. I was skipping math.. I mean it's the last day of school.. Give us a break.. He was gonna go through the test and do grade 10 math [was gonna.. and DID].. I was talking and then Lily points to my left and goes.. there's Mr Huzyk.. I turn my head and quickly turn back.. i was like HOLY SH*T! I covered my face and guess what David does.. he yells how HEY MR HUZYK.. and he stops by.. dahhhh lol.. he looked at me and was like.. jamie! you bad girl! Hookie player!! lol.. thank god he was joking.. Lily told me he's strict.. ahh.. phew..thank god.. well what can he do.. UNLESS i have him for math next year.. noooooo.. i don't know which math teacher I want...Anyway.. lunch came.. It was a.. "pleasant" but short picnic.. They only made announcements like just before lunch to say that school was shortened.. sigh..It was like.. 10:55 to 11:35.. WHAT a short lunch.. But it didn't affect anything.. Jr got us to come to his English? SS class?? Only him and some other people there so his teacher let us in..Diane and Raman drew on the board.. Then Jr and Hogen went out to Giant foods to get food.. they brought back a WHOLE CASE of mini pepsi's.. those are so cute! like half the size of a regular can.. It's actually better.. BUT less pepsi.. more expensive? How does that work. JUST coz it's unusual, they sell it more expensive and hope people will be facinated by it. And those people are us.. ha..the way of life.. sigh..he gave them out to everyone.. so nice.. they bought a deck of cards.. Well Jr did.. he's like loaded..he gave them to Hogen after they were done.. I was playing badminton with Hogen's wrecked racket.. or was it Michaels.. Well anyway.. I used it. it was like smashed.. someone prob hit it and WHAM.. BENT! The strings were still tight tho.. just screwed up angle.. haha..i guess that kinda messes it up..Wanta and I shot a few shots around.. and then legresly comes out and tells us not to play.. -_-.. and then Wanta has to go to class...They were watching the industrial revolution.. ha.. POOR them.. that video was really boring.. actually most SS videos are boring.. Wanta sneaked out to come to our class.. lol.. which was right opposite hers anyway.. I play a few rounds of cards and then went downstairs with Hogen to play badminton.. Cept it's really hard to play with a low ceiling, so many people around you, a drafting coming from the doors coz they're open for ventilation.. and yeh the people.. and sharp objects around.. I kinda tapped Wanta's racket against a few things.. Well the school was pretty much deserted today.. OH YEH.. about the fire thing? It was true.. When I got to school, they had all the things in the library moved and I think the internet was down.. I wonder where they set the fire.. And because of that stupid fire, we didn't get to put our broadcast up!!!!!! DAMN! It was READY.. our FIRST and LAST video of the year.. With Mr Baxter and Mr Horn and the yearend and the interviews and ALL ARGHHHH.. All that work for nothing.. But great job everyone.. we had a pretty succesful year..After school, 2:25, but it was prob already 2:30 coz we were bugging.. actually.. Diane was bugging Jr to come over to my place..And then we finally left... we were all downstiars talking.. oh god i really hate keli.. He like shoves his yearbook in front of me and says YOU SIGN IT.. I'm like whoa.. pushy.. jeez.. i can't stand him.. I should have written something mean in his book. Well I signed my tag.. so he doesn't know it's me.. unless he asks someone.. I ran after Mr Slade to get him to sign my yearbook.. he was talking to me about badminton.. and hopefully we'll get to practice before our season starts.. How come no one else bothered to get badminton practice before?? Is our year the only year who is EXTREMELY crazy about badminton? If they were before, they would have gotten gym time already.. but nooooo.. i hope they start the badminton club.. Seniors have their badminton season in the fall.. that's good!! So we get more gym time.. i hope we get to play during their gym time!!! fingers crossed!!! I wanna play!!.. Mr Slade talks about the Summer and where he's going and stuff.. I didn't really like how he dragged the conversation on.. but it's nice talking to Mr Slade..I just kept knodding my head.. he asked me about Singapore.. and said that my english was good blahblahblah.. Not a lot of people seem to know that the first language in Singapore is English. They think, oh Asian country.. Chinese.. Mandrin.. Cantonese...Korean.. blahhh.. Well can't blame them I guess.. When I think Caucasian, I think English.. some prob have their own languages.. =).. Then I catch up with Ms Brown and got her to sign my book.. Darn.. all I need is Mr Baxter and Mr Leclair.. I don't think there are any other teachers I want to remember.. Oh DARN forgot Ms Waterton!! sigh... so many to think of.. anyway.. My cousins waiting for this post to end. Better end it off soon.. After school, my friends come over and we play with the GC.. Then looked through the yearbook.. talked.. Krissy and Lily went on the computer. We went out on the deck for a bit and Diane sprayed me with water..again.. Watched Gothika.. AGAIN.. It ain't really that scary the second time.. It's like Secret Window.. You watch it the first time, you get scared coz you don't know what's gonna happen.. The second time, you know exactly what happens next.. Cept I still jump.. lol i get all jittery.. That was pretty much my day.. I enjoyed it.. I still can't believe grade 9 is over.. feels too soon...I played speed with Diane and Krissy.. David had to leave.... A few minutes later we see him at the window waving his hands around.. then he looks like he's taking a picture and I'm like wha? He left his video camera here.. thank god he remembered.. or else it would have been here a long time..like the whole summer.. Ok MUST END THIS

So very sad.. and awgh Japanese are really scary people..Aww but the kid's so cute!! Forgot his name but he's still cute!! Lily fell asleep at like 10.. Krissy's brother went out to the Ikea sale and we were watching him put the stuff together..At around 12? 1am??2?? Walked out in the dark to look up at the stars.. so pweeeeeetty..And to cool off.. the heat just gets to you.. You know, I have never ever in my life seen the big dipper.. and I saw it for the first time last night.. yes.. very amazed..and Diane said it felt like a dome.. It DOES! We're all like trapped in this dome..We "girl talked" and there was pretty much nothing left to talk about.. Usually we talk about a whole lot.. But right now it's just concentrated on certain things.. I was so dead tired.. the heat just drains you.. Saturday afternoon.. phew.. and no more work to worry about..

[Grade 9 is finally over... or should i say already??]

I did my math final this morning.. I guess it was... meh.. ok.. I got 22.5 out of 25.. that's pretty good.. ain't it not??? BUT that was the written part.. For the MC.. hmmm 39? eep.. better than the Mock I guess.. So all together.. it's 82%... overall mark for the entire test.. don't think my mark for the whole course will drop that much... Mr Huzyk talked and talked and talked and talked the remaining part of the block..His voice makes me want to fall asleep.. Before the final, he switched all our seating plans.. He put Brandon next to me.. ha...Wonder why he had to switch all the seating arrangements on the second last day of school.. might as well call it last day.. At lunch, we went to Esso.. Got us some slushies.. mmmm.. it is SOOO hot out.. Did i mention yesterday it was 35 degrees out..phew~! Our lunch was pretty much nothing.. Now I'm in drafting actually found a computer that works!!! haaaaaa!! Still have to last the next block tho.. -___- [krissy's face.. haha] Unless Diane wants to skip the next block with me... god it's so boring in here....
-1pm-
sigh.. maybe I will skip the next block.. there's like NOTHING to do here.. Prob gonna go to Oishi with Alice..
-6:22pm-
hmm well i got back just a while ago from school.. Didn't think I'd stay THAT long.. hehe.. We were at our lockers.. OH YEH.. I went to the waterpark! With Alice and Kathy.. they were going to get Sushi then head down to Erma.. Thank God I caught them in time.. I was seeing if Diane would come with me.. But she wanted to watch the movie..They were watching Remember the Titans [or something] in Home Ec. Alice and I walked on the field into the sprinklers.. [lol alice..] Way better than the crappy water park that trinkles water.. Got soaked.. I was wearing white too.. Had my "jacket" tho.. good thing.. My jeans were so wet and heavy and it stuck to me.. It's still slightly damp now.. I walked back to school at 2:30... waited for Diane and Krissy.. Then Jr found us and was like "Are you guys gonna stay?" i was like what? Apparently they were staying after school to finish the broadcasting.. I got more people to sign my yearbook.. Jessy.. Esther..Sonya.. Jr, who took a while.. [lol Jr.. Yo(period)]...We hung around and waited for Esther.. Went into the theatre to film... i think it was the ending? Intro? or both.. for the FHTV video..lol Since Esther's got the key to the theatre, she knows what's around the theatre.. She found the remaining candy that Jr got confiscated.. lol handed them out to us.. [Thanks Jr! =)].. We hung out til around 5:45pm.. Talked.. Diane argued with Sam.. hmm what else did we do.. hmm took David a while to sign my yearbook..Well.. GRADE 9 IS OVER.. it's gone! No more!! Now... sigh. grade 10.. provincials... I shall rest my brain this summer and start again when school re-opens.. Sept 6th??? I'll have about 2 and a half weeks to spend with my friends here.. Not quite sure which date I'll be flying back.. Some time mid august.. OMG Krissy's mom is a scary driver.. it's so freaky sitting in her car.. I think her Dad is a scary driver too.. he drives so fast and then jams on the breaks.. Her mom drives even faster..I was like WHOA!!

Hopefully the people who are doing their tests are not done yet.omg this must be the slowest computer ever...it is so laggy..the space bar doesn't really work either...the french test was pretty easy... the only part that was hard was the written...we had to write a postcard.. we get year books at lunch...Lily said room 206...i must end this right here..coz this cpu is killing me..

Lily wrote zap on my hand.. Cept she didn't do a very good job writing.. David and Krissy said it looks like some chinese word.. heh..We were in the library "bugging" Jr and David.. heh.. After lunch, I did my final.. Those questions were confusing... They don't explain them clearly and it makes you think there are 2 possible answers.. Nothing like the Mock Final at all..We had a WHOLE block free.. doing nothing.. Ms Purewal didn't even let us out for break.. I played Slap Jack with Christy and Doni. [lol Doni.. WHACK.. OW~!].. Got more people to sign my yearbook..

[Last few games of badminton...made it theeee best]

Hmm well we presented our French project this morning. Right after Leona and Wanta, who ALWAYS go first. Maybe we would have gotten a better mark if we had gone first. We got 46 out of 50. Well 4 marks off.. ah well.. not bad...Had my written final for math in the second block. It turned out pretty easy actually... I was thinking hard like the mock final. But it was easier. I had to clear some things out tho. I've never asked a question for math during a test before...Got that over with..lol after the final, Mr Huzyk made us answer these questions.. he gave each of us a piece of fullscap paper.[line paper?] and he's like "I like/dislike math because________________" "What do I think I would get on the final?" "What do I think i would get on the final if I tried my best" "I want ___________for math next year becauase___________" "Advice to grade 9s next year" haha for that one I wrote.. Don't slack.. Don't pile work into one day [cram].. Don't get Mr Huzyk mad.. "What did Mr Huzyk do that helped with my math" "What didn't he do" "What he should do".. so on and so forth.. At lunch, there was the Japan meeting. I wasn't sure whether to go or not. I haven't talked it out with my parents yet coz my mom isn't here. I wasn't sure whether to put my name down on the sheet or not to. But I did. Wanta followed us. At first I was thinking, maybe I'll go play badminton with Wanta and ditch the meeting. I doubt I'll be going. What am I gonna do for those 2 weeks? If all my friends go, I'll be all alone! Ahhhhhh... But do I want to go to Japan? Do I?? It would be fun... but DO I??!? hmmmm I shall think about that.. The meeting lasted about 20mins.. dahhh Had only half an hour to play badminton. The gym was packed anyway. When we got there, there were people all over... On the courts.. along the side.. inbetween courts.. Lily and I managed to squeeze in.. haha.. Then Alex and some other guy left and we got half a court.. Played half court singles .. then David came and so did Kevin and we played "Half court mix??".. Kinda scary.. so little space to run.. so little space to reach.. I'm afraid I'm gonna hit someone... David was whacking birds at Diane again.. lol She was hiding behind Jr and when David smacked the bird he ducked down really fast and Diane screamed..lol that was funny..Next up.. science.. but we had nothing to do in science but wait to be called down for the Awards Assembly..it was sooooo hot in the theatre... i was gonna die.. lol Diane said she could feel the heat coming from me.. cough.. anyway.. I got into first class honours.. and I got a certificate for Visual Arts..so that makes 2 certificates for art.. since I got one at the Awards Ceremony for my 3 paintings..I wonder if I can get those back?? Maybe I'll go talk to Ms Mctavish.. I wonder if I'll get her next year.. Or is Ms Nickel better? hmmm...Ms Nickel seems to be teaching easy stuff.. like back to square one... But Mctavish marks really hard.. Took me a lot of effort to get my 90.1% and that's the highest.. phew.. But in Ms Nickels class, the highest is like 95%? 97%?? I could probably do better in Nickels.. But I don't wanna go back to easy stuff. I wanna learn more..hmm what next.. oh yeh Drafting.. oh god drafting was sooooo boring today.. BORING.. REALLY BORING.. must have been the most BORING block ever.. Alice skipped the day coz there was basically nothing to do in school today..Kathy was playing cards with the guys.. Soooo I decided to work on French.. I re-did my Final Review sheet #35... hmm I guess I got the right answers THIS time.. hehe.. I'm good.. I'm good...My French final's first thing in the morning tmr.. Science final right after lunch.. At the end of drafting I had to log on and copy my floor plan to disk..coz all the darn computers don't have domains.. They're getting ready to close the shop and the lab.. So on Friday, it's gonna be NOTHING.. for two whole blocks.. NOTHING at all! Maybe I'll skip on Friday after lunch.. nahhh..But there's absolutely nothing to do.. I have my MC final for math on Friday in the morning, after that.. I'm done.. kapesh [diane haaa].. finito.. fin!! gone.. Grade 9.. OVER..wow.. that was a fast year..on to grade 10.. eep.. Mr Huzyk's probably gonna do grade 10 math on Friday.. sigh..work work work -___-" give us a break.. After school, after I copied my floorplan, I rushed to the gym.. to find the nets all nicely set up.. Tho they were kinda low.. I was looking at them.. and I was like hmm something ain't right.. but what.. JoonHee was hanging around and he borrowed my racket to rally for a bit before he had to leave for prep?? something like that..he tightened the nets up and i was like there we go! David showed up. I asked him the night before whether he was gonna come, but he said he needed to study.. [somemore.. sigh tsktsk David.. stuffing your brain up with too much info that it goes the opposite way..stressssssss..hehe].. anyway, he came by, played with Mr. O and then with us for a bit.. I played with Krissy against Diane and Lily.. hmm I had some pretty good shots there.. I was on a rolllllleeee.. haha.. It was really really really really really REALLY warm .. no HOT in the gym.. I opened the doors but that didn't help.. Just let [lol I almost typed letted? what a word] more hot air in.. Krissy left and played with Alex.. while I played with Lily and Diane.. Jr came by for a bit.. he was like "You guys are still here??".. hmm....I went on Lilys side and played Kevin and Diane after... Then Kevin left and Jensen came on.. I was like ahhhhhhhh.. so was Diane.. haha.. Jensen just brings all the pressure into the game..But hey he was actually in a good mood today.. amazing.. he was.... NICE today! Whenever I do a good shot, he's like "ha Jamie! See I taught you that one." blahblahblahblah.. I don't remember what he taught me.. I don't remember him TEACHING me.. just advice.. strategy.. I got bits and pieces of info and strategy from a lot of people.. Mr Slade, Jensen, David, Harry, JoonHee... hmm who else... It was fun today.. tho Mr. O had to close the gym at 4.. that sucked.. would have had half an hour more!!! but nooOOOoo.. Lily was like.. I'm 45 mins early! She told her mom to come at 4:45.. hehe oops.. I waited with Diane, Lily and Krissy.. went to my locker and David came by to talk.. We went upstairs coz he needed to use the phone.. talked about his Chem Mock Final.. [and how studying didn't actually help!! haha.. or did it..hmm] Mr Huzyk was sitting outside marking our finals... I was like gasp you're marking our finals.. Is he a good teacher? I don't know. Math just ain't my most favourite subject.. Anyway.. May's waiting for this post to go up.. [lol May.. special.. and you aren't special if you didn't read all the way til the end.. But you have to be coz you're reading this.. UNLESS you don't .. and that goes on and on..]

[-Title here-]

hmm well I couldn't think of a title for todays post so.. that will have to do.. haha.. had to do more materies AGAIN.. sigh I got 5 out of 10 on the first one!! 5!! Jeff was like.. Jamie.. didn't do so good this time.. heh..Jeff's actually pretty nice.. Gruenwald.. Greundwald.. Greunwald.. blehhh...Got full marks on the second one.. [but only coz Lily helped me out.. shhh.. but hey I got most of them right! just need to review my verbes]..forgot that it was a double block.. had to sit through all that french.. awgh..at lunch, we had the broadcasting meeting.. hmm i wonder what it's called.. FHTV??? I guess that's the best we can do right now.. We told Mr Nguyen what we were doing and what we had so far.. Did the interview with Mr Horn today.. we were gonna do it after school on Friday but then I think Mr Horn had something to do.. So we cancelled and did it today.. Took us almot the whole lunch just to finally get it all done.. jeez.. Mr Horn.. First of all..it as an interview on tape.. and Krissy was doing the interview.. I think Hogan wanted to video.. lol he really wants to be part of this.. He's like I'll do it! Me!! ME!! pick me! He like points to himself.. then David and Jr go.. NO.. lol.. and Hogan's like awww.. They write 3 questions on a sheet for Mr Horn to answer and he goes into some room and 20 mins later he comes out with a printed out sheet with all the questions answered.. then leaves to his office again.. jeez.. it's an INTERVIEW.. not a quiz... Jr knocks on his door again and tells him that it's an interview they're gonna film.. and he seemed so suprised.. -_-" oh god.. he spelled one wrong.. "won" tsktsktsk.. he put the wrong year on.. instead of 2005 he puts on 1995.. yeh our school gets invited BACK in time!! Anyway.. we finally found a quiet place to do the interview.. At first I thought Hogan was going to film.. Jr was like Hogan what are you doing.. and he's like.. I'm filming.. and Jr's like you're not even in the group.. lol and he hands me the camera.. I told him he could film if he wanted to.. but hey he gave it to me.. So i filmed... I think Krissy and Mr Horn were standing a bit far from each other.. Well we got it.. after most of our lunch was over... Got into Science to find all the chairs gone and the tables messed up.. had to rearrange them and do a mock final which i didn't even know we had.. took up most of the 2 blocks.. I got 105 out of 130.. still not even good enough.. not even an A.. like 80% or something..I guess if I reviewed and was SURE of the answers I could get a better mark.. will do that at lunch tmr.. Math... then.. wait~.. i have my math in the morning.. so screw that.. i'll review math later on.. tmr I have to get my french sorted out.. the videos done.. thanks to my dad.. even tho my part was REALLY bad.. i like looked at the screen for one second.. then look at my sheet then look at lily.. i was gonna die laughing....well we prob did better than anyone else will..so we're good..it's all good.. *inhale.. exhale*.. Hmm I talked to Josh today.. never ever talked to him before.. He was in Diane's art class... and was sanding Kitty's clay bow down.. He's like this is fun.. hmmm.. he talked to me and yeh.. ok.. my plan for tonight was to sleep at 10.. but i guess we have to scratch that..change it to 11..

[French...Science...MATH! ahhhh]

Hmm Lily's gonna come by soon to work on our french project.. sigh.. it's gonna be a busy day.. Don't know how long we're going to take.. Have to write the script, type it out, make a background, memorise, film, get 30second movie clips, put it together, copy to tape.. and all this is due Weds. Last week of school and it's so busy...Last week of school should be free, all exams over...but nooOOOoo.. after we're done the projeect today, IF we get done, I still have to study for science, math and french [again]... After getting the math mock final cleared up, i got SOME stuff understood..hmm.. well I guess I'll review more math tmr at lunch.. then he written part is on Tuesday.. Still not sure about the block order... hmm i've been living off pizza mini's for a while.. starting to taste weird..
-6pm-
hmm, I just got back from getting an ice cream cone with my friends.. Yeh i know, I'm supposed to be studying.. but but but... ok Lily came over, we worked on our script.. Actually she did most of the script.. I worked on the rating signs.. printed #s 4 and 5.. made it into a stencil and spray painted it.. Had to cut out a feather and paste it on.. When I took over the keyboard to write the Shrek review, Lily made 2 ogres.. so cute.. just they kinda blew away.. too small.. at around 5, we gave it a rest.. worked from 1 to 5.. i guess that's pretty good...right? We walked out to Esso to meet Diane and Krissy..Chesters was closed tho.. Do they normally close on Sundays?? I got ice cream from Java hut.. mmm.. I never knew Gina worked there.. and for a single scoop of ice cream, it's a lot..mm mm good..we walked around.. Lily got a pack of noodles.. [awgh Lily.. TAPE WORMS!!] The SFU student store was still on in the village.. strange..how long did they stay there for??? They cleared everything and opened it up again!? That was pretty much it.. We just walked around.. "hung out" rested our brains.. Now I have to go complete the script for french..

[Country Fair...Happy Birthday David!]

wow..it's late.. David, Krissy and Diane just left a while ago..We had a fun night..Tho when we were there at 4:30pm for the volunteering, they didn't have us [krissy and I] for candy bags at Erma.. Lily and I were put for jousting/car/slide.. no idea..so Krissy and Diane were in charge of getting tickets for the teacups while Lily and I were in charge of the jousting.. What a job for us girls to do.. jeez.. I collected tickets.. tried to get the annoying people to stop doing this.. stop doing that..We ended early.. Told the guy we had to leave.. Since I told David we were gonna be at Erma.. The 4 of us walked to Erma to get fooooood...Got hotdogs... We were gonna walk back.. Diane and I were like "I don't think we'll ever find David" and guess what.. He appears right infront of us.. I was like omg there he is.. Lily finally gives him his present.. lol.. the very.. "different" present.. lol lily.. This little big maroon box with Jr's red ribbon cut up.. haha! He sits down to open it.. lid comes off and he finds cotton.. leaves...candy [cough..the ones Lily rejected from the candy jars]..underneath that is another box.. which he opens to find a letter and a "spider".. he's like oh a spider ahhhh i'm so scared.. lol.. so he packs everything in nicely and finally gets the box shut and hands it to diane for one sec.. and she DROPS it.. Well anyway.. we walk to the village.. forgot what we did.. OH YEH we found a cel phone and David tries to call the people recorded in the phone.. but the first person.. Nikki? someone... some girl..whoever picked the phone up wasn't her.. lol.. some guy picked the phone up.. a while later, he calls back.. and I'm like errr... I tell David to give it to lost and found and he puts it in his pocket... lol we go to the village lost and found counter and hand it in..then spend the rest of our day walking around.. talking.. David got me ice cream.. awwwwww but he said he owed me.. coz I gave him a birthday present.. and he didn't.. well I did it out of "kindness? no.... niceness?? no..." blahhh... Julian, Adam, and Alex come by and we're talking to them.. Saw Tom a few times and he chased Diane around.. all the guys go for Diane.. cough LOL.. he takes her hat... she screams and runs after him.. and for someone who doesn't run a lot on the court, Diane can run [LOL DIANE!! I noticed that.. you need someone chasing you for you to move faster!! harhar!!] After a loooong time walking, we finally get to sit.. walked to FH to see if there was anything going on.. doors were locked so we headed back..David wanted to hang out with his other friends for a bit.. so he went with Regina, Annie [i think], Jennifer, hmmmmm.. and some other people for about an hour... told us to meet him at Quiznos.. when we got there, he was still talking to his friends and eating.. so we didn't want to budge in.. We played a round of mini golf to use up our remaining tickets... Then finally decided to go in and get him.. I was like "You can stay with your friends if you want" But he said "Gimme 5 mins".. hmm we waited about 15.. then he finally came.. he got balloons.. he still had a lot of tickets.. lol at the beginning.. when he came.. he told me " I bring money and they say I need a ticket for the food" Then we walk to one of the barbeque places and they collect money.. he's like.. jeez.. We try to use up our tickets and I had 3 left.. gave him one to balance it off.. He's like anyone else want ice cream?? Cotton Candy.. they were running out.. so it was all sugary and small.. walked back to my place to watch the year end concert on tape... talked for a bit and Diane wanted to watch The Ring.. when he saw the whole collection of DVDs.. he freaked.. he was like "I have 3 dvds" lol.. anyway..I asked my dad what time they had to leave and he said 11pm.. I was watching the clock.. then forgot about it.. then when I looked at it, it was 11:20.. I was like.. uh oh.. Diane called her place.. So did David.. but I think they wanted to watch the movie.. then Diane found out she needed a ride.. So Krissy called home.. couldn't get a ride.. in the end, David got his mom to meet them at Erma... I was like.. you're gonna walk to Erma? In the dark? At this hour? He's like yeh. .. walking in darkness is just like walking in daylight.... all in the mind.. i guess that's true.. I just don't like it.... well i wouldn't.. aww wow.. do you ever notice signs.. just stuff the average person wouldn't think about.. If the weather hadn't cleared in the afternoon.. which it just HAD to in the AFTERNOON.. just BEFORE the fair.. there wouldn't have been this fun filled evening.. I wouldn't have been able to hang out with Krissy, Lily, Diane and David.. I wouldn't have been able to eat ice cream or.. laugh or have fun.. my evening would have been on this cpu talking to people and I would prob be asleep right now... and it would feel like morning already coz sleep just passes time so fast.. ok.. must stop thinking... when it's past 12.. my mind goes weird.. think about that one.. lol..

[Broadcasting]

I had my french mock final this morning.. Half of the vocab.. actually... more than half the vocab we didn't even learn in the Livre.. How is Mme Waterton supposed to expect us to know it all...She's such a crappy french teacher.. not that she's a bad person.. she's nice.. just the french. NOT GOOD.. Anyway... Did some review in math.. I managed to get some questions answered.. Before class started, David ran by and he came in to talk to me.. Needed me to film Mr Baxter speaking for the intro of our broadcast coz he had a Chem tutorial at lunch..lol..who better to call than Jamie? He met me outside class and Jr & I went down to Mr Baxter's office.. I've never been in there before.. It's cool.. as in air conditioned.. hehe..Mrs Savory and some other teacher were laughing really loud.. for a really strict Vice Principal she can laugh.. lol! Well Jr had left a script for Mr B to read from which he didn't see.. so we taped it once.. He didn't have his lines memorized so the first one didn't sound very good.. He gave Jr a poster board to write on and he copied the script in large so we could pin it on the wall for him to read from.. That was much better.. too us about half an hour and then after we had to go to the band room to meet Jackie who was going to interview Mr Horn.. But she wasn't there and Mr Horn was busy anyway.. so we have to do that after school.. Mr Baxter also said something about filming someone to show at the commencement? Said he'd pull me out of either Science or Drafting to do so.. Either he forgot my classes or he changed his mind.. David asked me about it just before science.. weird..today he seems to be able to find me in my classes really easily..I'm like sitting in class and he just appears like he knows I'm supposed to be there.. creepy David.. I'm not sure how wet or rainy it is outside right now.. But it should be drying up.. PLEASE DON'T RAIN!!! I don't want this Country Fair to be ruined... The last 3 years were great.. It's a lot better if it weren't rainy.. All the stores and rides won't be able to open if it does rain..oo and the games outside Erma.. hmm my drafting projects almost done.. well it looks done.. I don't know what else to do..
LOL I just remembered.. yesterday, I was watching the video I recorded of the Year End and I was copying it to VHS ... LOL david!! hilarious.. I caught him and Mr Huzyk singing and dancing along to Do Wah Diddy... anyway the doorbell rang and I saw some guy walking to our front door.. didn't know him.. when my dad answered the intercom.. he blabblered something really loud and muffled and in some strange accent.. my dad was like what?? and he repeated it again.. My dad was all confused.. he walked to the front door and he repeated himself again.. He's like "I SAID.. So how are you doing" only it sounded like shohowjdchadoin... cept more muffled..

[Math.......]

Had my mock final this morning.. ahhhhhhh.. I breezed through the first part pretty easily.. but as i got to the final few questions... i just could NOT get it.. at all.. Took me a while.. well I would have gotten them better if I had more time but I didn't.. had like 15 mins left to do so many questions... Well overall both tests combine I did raise my mark... it was 4% more than my worst test.. I shall not say how much.. cough cough.. lol..At lunch, we had a meeting for the broadcasting project.. Right now.. hmm it's pretty much, me, Diane, Krissy, Lily, Wanta, David and Jr... no one else shows up for the meetings..Well the occational.. Sophia and Jackie.. other than that I don't see anyone else.. James and Wayne are definately out.. haven't heard from them in ages..our meeting about broadcasting soon turned into just chatting.. heh.. Diane was looking through Jr's jacket and binder.. and both David and Diane were playing with his jacket... Jr was like.. to them.. you guys are so similar.. i was like how are they similar? [getting the wrong idea here.. lol] After talking for about 10 mins.. really loudly too in the library..Could have gotten kicked out.. heh mean librarian.. I had science to complete and math to study for.. but.. i didn't have time coz i had to eat my lunch and my friends just wouldn't stay in one spot.. hmm my lunch was kinda.... hard.. well.. rock hard.. those pizza pocket things.. I don't know what my dad did to it.. but it was rock hard..and it tasted weird.. hmm.. thursday.. today I shall REALLY work on my math.. get that mark pushed up.. tho I doubt I'll push it up really high.. I'll just do what my mind can.. if it can't, it can't... I guess I'll work on my science in these two blocks... and prob get somemore of my drafting done.. my mark won't go down that low.. it can't possibly. I'm getting a high A for sure.. Simon told me I was getting a high A and I believe him..everyone else in here slacked off in their small projects and now they're working super hard on the final..[turns around]... well some of them are anyway... everyone else.. meh..cards..

When he kept missing the shots, Jenny was laughin and David was like shhhhhh Jenny.. stopstopstop.. hmm and that was lunch..

Fun games today.. just not with Jensen.. eep.. lol.. well i guess SOMEtimes it's fun to play with him... but you can never have fun when you DO play with him.. he just gets mad mad mad when you lose!!!sigh...

[Happy Birthday to me! dahhhhhhhh =S]

Hmm ok.. too many things going on this week.. French project due next Weds which Lily and I have to video tape hopefully by this week... The only days we're free are Thursday and Sunday.. which means the script HAS to be written and done on Thursday and we HAVE to get it filmed on Sunday.. or else we have to push it on to Monday and hopefully get it done by Tuesday... next.. Math... I did the written part of my mock final today.. 8 questions..8 nightmares.. ahhh and Mr HUzyk only gave us half an hour to do that.. hmm ah well doesn't affect my mark so it won't go down.. hopefully with the MC questions I can get over 61% to push my first test up.. I think the MC questions are on Thursday.. Tmr I can't do anything coz there's badminton at lunch [and I am NOT going to miss it this time].. after school there's badminton til 4:30.. which means I'll be home around 5pm and 2 hours later I have to be at the year end concert filming til around 9pm or til whenever it ends..Thursday at lunch I have to continue studying for Math, French, Science..today I was trying to work on my Math.. but with so many people in the library talking and plus Diane and Lily were with me.. it's kinda hard to concentrate.. so i ended up not diong anything.. well I did accomplish ONE thing.. I got Lily to explain to me one of the questions in the mock.. Factoring.. hate that..i don't get why we have to know it.. Just coz some weirdo math geek created a formular that he thought was crazy doesn't mean we have to know it.. If I made up something would EVERYONE have to learn it?! I don't see how Factoring can help me..coz it doesn't.. Hmm It's my birthday!! Krissy gave me a card and a box of stars..Wanta already got me a card and the creepy bobble head dog.. Diane got me a beanie baby.. and some other stuff that shall not be named.. lol diane..hilarious.. Lily gave me my present in bits and pieces.. One she already printed out.. and yeh haha lily..still need to get that perfect picture of you know you!! Well I'm resting my poor brain from this morning.. Had to review Chem in science.. Atoms.blahhh.. At break Lily asked me this riddle [and diane this is for you too]>

Whoever Makes it
Tells it not
Whoever Takes it

Lily and I have to do a review on 2 movies and we picked HP and Shrek 2.. record that and then get two 30 second clips to put in for bonus marks...I did math today!!! Spent my entire lunch in the library working on math and only math.. aren't you so proud.. cough cough.. Well i got about 70 questions done in an hour..Still have about 90 to go.. phew..I have the first half of the mock tmr... and the MC on Thursday I think.. I can't wait for Weds.. Badminton after school [and I hope we play well not like how we did at the rec centre.] It seems I can play better in school.. The rec centre somehow takes my skill away.. Also on the same day is the FH Annual Year End Concert and Krissy's singing in it. I'm gonna borrow my dad's vid camera to get as much footage as I can for the broadcasting thing.. Maybe if i have the time and the patience I could try collecting the clips from David and Jr to edit and put together and see what they think of it...Tmr's my birthday.. wow.. 15.... 15 wonderful years on this planet.. in this solar system.. in the milky way.. in the universe.. eep.. 15!!! ahhhhh I remember being 7 years old and people asking me how old i was and I'd go "7 and a half"...Oh yeh also.. this Friday is the country fair..

[chilli peppers!]

Lily wasn't in french today.. i was all ALONE... but i survived..Went to the library at lunch to get STARTED on my math.. Hey i managed to get something done at last..i can't concentrate at home..We had Ms Purewal for science again.. and Jeff.. he brought yellow chilli peppers to class.. like a bag of them.. and he handed one out to Mark...and he took a huge bit out of the end and he looked at Jeff and chewed and he like rolled his eyes and got back to his work.. a few seconds later his face turned red and he ran out the door to the water fountain.. that was hilarious.. Michelle Petit and West took a huge bite too and they were like BAHHHHHHHH.. they like ran in and out of class.. lol hilarious.. Bruce and Kyle walked by our class and Mark gave it to Kyle and he took a bite.. WHY do people take such huge bites of a CHILLI PEPPER...Kyle and Bruce left.. and a few seconds later we see Kyle run back to the water fountain.. that's so funny.. He came back a few times...lol... when class was about to end the guys were smearing the juice from the chilli pepper on their cuts.. guys are really stupid.. do it once.. regret it.. and do it again?! Stacy was looking at my drawings.. like the ones that don't really look like anything [cubism?] and then eveyrone starts looking at them and they're all guessing what they think it is.. I find that cool.. where everyone looks at it at a different view.. maybe i'll be an art teacher! lol
-2:39pm-
Alice and Kathy are sitting next to me feeling really bored..Mr Lim's checking out assignments.. he's prob gonna collect them for marks.. and mine is messed.. i don't know whether to re draw something on paper and then do it.. or to just hand in the one that i drew with scaled down units which aren't right.. =(
-8:05pm-
Phew.. it's sooooo hot today. I had Diane and Krissy over after school and we walked out to Tim Hourtons to grab an Ice Capp.. mmmm so goooooood... We were sitting outside Tim Hourtons cooling off when we spot Jack, Kevin and Tom heading home from playing basketball. Diane called them over and we talked for a bit and decided to go to Jack's house to play air hockey.. He has an air hockey table!! and it's got that anti friction air blower thing.. lol.. it was fun.. tho Diane beat me 24-14.. =(.. ah well it was fun [diane you only scored once when i was gone!! har!! lol! ah well gj.. you beat me.. ] It was a LOOOONG walk to Jack and Tom's house in DA HOT SUN..but we made it.. Tom gave us popsicles.. how nice. I haven't seen the good side of Tom in a while. We left Jacks place at around 6:20pm, stopped by Jr Douglas Park to go on the see-saw.. lol.. that thing is scary.. LOL Diane.. up.. and down Ow.. up.. and down OW.. haha!
-12:20am-
LOL I just remembered..After school, Diane and I were walking and we saw David talking to Scott so we said hi..and talked to him for a bit then Jenny walks right up to him and [no hesitation] PUNCH! David was like WHOA...so was I.. Too bad Diane didn't see it... [You missed it!] I was.... amazed..lol.. She PUNCHED him right in the arm and David was like bending over covering his head.. and Jenny's like yelling again.. lol.. [just like she was with Joonhee just this time I could understand what she said] David like ran behind Diane when Scott grabbed hold of Jenny's fist. She looked like she was gonna attack him again. Jenny's really abusive. It's scary.. wow.. It's 2:21am now.. this post took me a while.. lol coz i was on the phone with Diane.. we were talking about badminton for so long... Can't wait to play on Sunday!

[Finals]

hmm I'm trying to draw the house for my final for drafting.. but i'm not sure if this is what it's supposed to look like.. the criteria sheets don't exactly say much.. no help at all.. it just tells you what kind of rooms they are supposed to be but no dimensions.. just found out that the walls have to be a certain thickness.. sigh.. hmm.. Had math this morning and i could not concentrate at all.. I was staring at my notes... Yesterday i was gonna do the reviews but i didn't have my notes so i couldn't.. Today we had the full review to do.. every fourth question..Doni and I didn't know we had to do it without checking.. heh so we pretty much got everything right....lol Mr Huzyk left the room while we were working and Aman kept talking and talking and talking... Mr Huzyk walked back into class and whacked him on the head with a roll of paper.. it was so funny the way he did it..So today i have french hw... Math reviews to do [i wanted to get them done at lunch.. but nooOOoo].. heh at lunch we were walking around and we saw Sonya with her Chem. text book so we went to her class.. David and Jessy were there too.. Raman and Salina were sitting outside, so we stopped by to talk to them.. then Diane went inside to bug Sonya.. hmm i think we were making a lot of noise.. well Diane was.. people kept staring at us...oops.. o_-'' anyway.. should get back to my assignment..hmm i wonder who reads my blog....
-1pm-
*yawn*... so bored.. this assignment's so frustrating.. i keep staring at this black screen with white lines and there's so much work to do that i don't want to start.. Alice and Kathy aren't here.. they're prob skipping..usually when we have double block drafting in the morning, Alice would skip first block and sleep in... today.. it's after lunch so they prob had an extended lunch..
-2:30pm-
Hmm I found out that I'm doing my drawing by units and it turns out REALLY small.. but meh.. you can just scale it...sooooo bored...tooooo much drafting..
my head hurts
-3:37pm-
hmm When i got home.. I brought the trash and recycling box in and when i reached the side door.. my dad's keys were hanging from the slot.. i was like hmm.. and walked to the front to see if he was there but nope.. and i went inside and there he was reading a book.. i was like you left your keys outside.. hmm not good.. lol i'm reading horoscopes again.. this is my monthly>

Imagination is your best friend or worst enemy from the 1st to 6th. You're in heaven thinking someone loves you, or in hell imagining him or her with another. On the 7th and 8th, you get an answer to any questions that you might ask. In your book, this interlude could last forever. Seek closure or polish the perfect opening line on the 9th and 10th, and you're one step closer to permanence, whatever that means to you. Brief but perfect love affairs run their course between the 11th and 23rd. For partners making life plans together, the 16th, 17th and 18th give you an ideal launch window. Tell the world what you need to say, and don't keep any of the good stuff from each other. It sounds so trite yet feels so true to proclaim that world peace and universal harmony begin with a kiss between two people. In-laws and health care professionals ask tough questions on the 25th and 26th, but you pass the test. Nature itself is on your side throughout the weekend of the 26th. That makes it ever so much easier for romance to leap any social or professional obstacles between the 28th and 30th.
-9pm-
Just finished watching Canadian Idol.. man some people really suck.. i ain't no singer but my ears!!!.. Jerica Santos came on like at the end.. tho they didn't show her sing.. they should have!!! arg!! well she made it..

[feels so good to be playing on a court again]

French first thing in the morning.. eep.. veryveryvery boring.. Mme Waterton rushed to complete this chapter.. which prob took 3 days.. pft.. how can she expect us to get all the vocab memorised in 3 days.. we were supposed to play that circle game which we do for every unit.. she was watching the guys the whole time and the girls.. [tho Jon, Jason and Andy aren't counted as girls and they weren't playing]..yeh we picked fruits. and Amy LOL she was like let's be fruits.. and i was like ha.. fruits..why not vegetables! hehe.. The whole time we were calling out.. Orange Cherry! Pineapple Blueberry!! Blueberry Raspberry! ..hmm well we've got our fruits memorized now.. so much for french.. At lunch we were supposed to go to this Japan meeting.. like for the fieldtrip to Japan Spring 2005.. I was thinking.. find maybe it'll be like 10 mins.. but noOOOoo.. it took up most of lunch.. -_-"... so i missed badminton.. sigh..=(
Had to sit through science.. sooooo boring.. watched a video on astronauts and stuff.. and we HAD to answer questions.. sigh.. hate that.. makes you watch the video.. well i mean the video was interesting.. but the questions.. videos ain't fun when you have to answer questions or take notes.. FINALLY class ended and BADMINTON.. the only thing i was looking forward to today.. well there was something else.. but meh.. badminton was the highlight.. I played with Lily, Diane and Esther.. omg Esther is so scary.. she's really nice.. but really scary at the same time.. she was singing and singing and singing.. Diane and i were laughing so hard and then Diane starts being sarcastic and copying her and ahhhh hilarious.. lol we got her to play with Mr Slade while Jenny played with us.. then Lily left.. So I played with Jenny against Jensen and Diane.. I still can't get used to playing with or against Jensen.. he puts TOO much pressure on you.. lol when there's a shot that you are about to get but you aren't sure how to hit it you like go all wobbly.. LOL Diane did that and Jensen was behind her and he imitated her.. omg that was so funny..but even when Jensen ain't getting all mad i still get so much pressure playing against him... Same with Harry .. but not as bad.. those people need either someone older and more experienced than them, or someone who's just good...I don't think anyone else makes me feel so worked up and nervous.. hmm Diane and i played against David and Jenny... and David didn't have shoes..[tsktsk david!] he was sliding all over the court.. but hey he managed.. lol.. it was really warm in the gym today.. boiling..lol at the end.. David walked by me and he was like "Hey Jamie what's up" and he like sticks his hand out for a handshake.. lol i was like er hi and shook his hand.. hmm.. then Diane hides behind me and David's like staring me in the eyes.. Diane's mom dropped me off at Tim Hourtons and I got an ice capp.. mmmm soo goooooooooood.. hmm Joey called just now.. i was like "hello?" and there's this pause.. then she's like hello? and I'm like Joey? right? and she's like yeh..it's so silent in the background.. hmm well i guess maybe coz it was 8am in S'pore when she called.. aw have to wait til Sunday to play again.. =( Then Harry Potter and Shrek 2!!!

[Country Fair... Sandy Foster again?!]

There's a meeting after school for the country fair volunteers..and Sandy Foster's in charge.. -_-" Sandy Foster is the lady who was in charge of the Christmas Carnival at Erma.. and it was NOT good.. I was supposed to work for about 2 hours.. and she was SOMEwhere and i couldn't find her and no one took the next shift so i worked an extra hour and a half.. well i guess that adds to my CAPP hours.. I have about 13 or 15 hours.. i think..I got 74% on my math test yesterday.. eep.. well today in class Mr Huzyk was going over it and I found a question that he didn't check.. like he said that it was worth about 4 points.. coz there were 4 different answers.. But he gave me 1 coz I wrote the last answer on the answer sheet.. like it wasn't clear.. everyone else only wrote one answer.. and he said that he would check the scrap sheet of paper for your work and he'll give the marks for it... but he didn't!! So i handed him my work and i got my 4 marks! actually... 3 marks.. but still 7%!!!! My marks now pushed up to 81%... still not an A but I pushed it up.. =).....
-2:25pm-
phew.. i'm partway done my drawing.. i'm not even sure if i'm doing it right.. i mean it's so hard to measure square feet when it has to be exact.. i don't want my house to be easily drawn but then all squared..
-5:15pm-
I came home to a house with a changed living room.. the furniture just like.. switched spots.. at first i didn't even notice it.. i just walked right by.. but when i went to the fridge i was like WHOA..My dad must be really bored..heh.. look this is what i found for my horoscope>
