Played the best game of soccer today! It was theee best.. Too bad, it's the last day.. muaha.. next unit, Volleyball. Aww we couldn't play badminton?!?! We're in the main gym! Anyway, about today, my cold seems to be going away. That's good.. We were outside and it was SOOOO foggy. The warm up was just across the field and back, then stretch.. It looked cold but I didn't feel cold at all. I was in shorts and t-shirt! Ran and ran and ran and ran.. OOO and you could see the sun through the mist and it's like a perfect circle. I've never seen the sun before. But with the mist, you can look straight at it. I scored a goal! I think it was Jordan, he kicked the ball at Cole's face. It deflected off, came in my direction I kicked it and GOAL!.. heh.. I checked Cole and got the ball.. That was good. He was like "JAMIE! I wanna give you a hi 5! That was good!. Come here HI 5!" and the ball goes in his direction ".....after I score this one".. and his hi 5 was a handshake.. heh.. I got an email from my english teacher. Gave us this website. Pretty cool
Went out to blade. Then played badminton with Simon. heh we used the beaten up feathered bird and the cork broke off and Jonathan kinda went a bit loony. Just hitting the cork all over the cul de sac brought so much joy =S? heh.. Jacob was kicking a football around and OUCH kicking that football hurts. I booted it back to him and Ahh.. my foot.. And Jacob SOMEHOW kicks the ball up in the air and it lands in the tree and gets STUCK.. Nothing ever gets stuck in that tree and his football gets stuck =_+..lol.. so I shake the tree and it comes tumbling down and then we can't find the bird coz Simon hit it up and it disappeared. heh.. it was up there... hmmm well I guess that's it for today... Can't wait for Thursday! muahaha
Really nice day today. It's been sunny since Friday. Very nice and cheerful ^^.. I woke up just a teensy weensy bit earlier today.. ha 9:45. Hey! It's before 10!!! That's a start.. I thought it was just gonna be a regular boring day. Wrote in Krissy and Diane's books and completed my art assignments and head down for lunch. While I was downstairs, I get a phone call. So I figure it's Lily coz she was at Krissy's. I was like "Are you at Krissys?" and she goes "Hmm.. yeh.. sorta" How can you sorta be at Krissy's.. She asks if I wanna go out. I had to switch phones coz that one was kinda crackly. Then she tells me to go up to my room coz there's a msg there. I was like "you're online?" and she says "just go" So I run upstairs and look at the screen and there's no msg. Then she's like "...ok now look out your window" I was like S=[... And both Krissy and Lily are standing outside. lol.. suprised me.. I ran down to eat my lunch and get changed. They went to Esso and then I met them at Erma. Bladed out and that wasn't a good idea. I couldn't do anything but blade. Ah well.. Lily called Tom and he brought his basketball and they played. Then Jack came and they played 2 on 2.. fun.. All of us walked to Giant foods to get a drink and then headed back. There was a girl walking towards us with a dog. I was like.. Is that Diane? And it was! She was walking Puffy. Ah... fun day..
Hmm didn't have the time to blog yesterday.. Was busy finishing up my title page..=S..Well the events for Texan Thursday were like bobbing for apples.. line dancing.. Jerica did some singing..I taped some of it. But then I also wanted to play badminton. I was standing on one side of the stage to get a frontal view of them dancing and David was on the other side of the stage..He was like [hand gestures] "You playing badminton?" and I lifted the camera up saying I had to tape and he was like [hand gestures again..lol] "ah screw taping"... Then he came over and talked to me.. I said I didn't have my racket and he said he brought 2.. Hm well the gym was too full so.. I continued recording.. Grrr I shall play next week.. Nothing shall stop me..>8D...hehe
Firehawk Friday Madness...
I am SOOO tired of soccer.. We've played it for 2 weeks.. Every single morning.. It's good coz it makes you run and get strenuous exercise.. But WHY NOT BADMINTON???!!? Every morning when we go outside, it's freeeezing.. then after it's too hot.. Last day of soccer is on Monday. Phew.. BUT then we start volleyball. =_=... We're in the main gym.. Why not badminton??! grr.. Today at lunch the events were 'loudest scream', 'longest squat', 'fastest drinker', 'straw throwing'[throwing the straw the furthest], 'Unravelling starburst in your mouth'... hmm. I didn't catch the final events coz Lily said I should take a break and we definately have enough footage for our video..So I went to the library to see what everyone was doing. Diane, Krissy, Wanta, David and Jr were there, "studying"/helping/shelving/talking...
Headed to English after the bell and found out we had a sub. Booya! Mr Duncan. He's pretty good. Lol Tanner had his hood up like a jedi sorta and Kyle put his hood up and was like "Hey Tanner! May the force be with you~" lol he did that alien finger thing..Had to say a word that described how you were feeling when he called your name for attendance.. Part way through the class, like at 1:10pm, the PA system comes on saying that there's a code yellow. So everyone starts talking about it and stuff. Mr Duncan flicks all the lights off, locks the doors, shuts the blinds and we sit there in silence.. Well sorta.. Lotsa whispers.. And then the sub's like "This is a code yellow, everyone is to remain silent as if no one was here" So all of us are wondering what it is. At first I thought it was a drill. People were like shouting out "They're gonna shoot us!!!!".. hehe..But then they don't usually do drills for this kind of thing. Just earthquake and fire drills...Anyway, we sit there in darkness for like 8 minutes and Mr Emerson opens the door and looks at us as if we didn't have electricity, like there was a power outage or something. He's like "Is it not working?".. and flicks the lights on... Then he says "Wanted to inform you that there has been a bear siting on school grounds".. All of us rush to the windows when he leaves..lol someone yelled out "The bear's gonna shoot us!".. Said there was a little bear in the bushes and we were to stay in class. I was like nooOOOOOOOO.. We were in the portables so I figured we were stranded there. PA system came on again and Mr Fabiano said that people going to portables in block D had to meet in the cafeteria. Didn't say anything about the people IN the portables. Well we were dismissed and headed into the school building SAFE.. haha.. There were RCMP on school grounds searching for the bear. So funny when you walk down the hall and you hear all these people talking about a bear and that it's a big bear that can open doors.. -_-... Well that's something interesting that happened today.. Last I heard, there was another bear, a bigger one. Maybe mother and cub.. [shrugs]...Went to Krissy's after school and we hung out for a bit. Diane's sister's babysitting Jessy's dog.. sooo cute.. Puffy.. Ah.. Weekend.. b-e-a-utiful..
OMG! ARG.. I've been having all these comments from some site I don't know and first it started off with 2 comments, then 5, then a little more.. Now it's doubled the number of comments I have. That's about 200 over. ARG.. I've blocked SOOOO many IP addresses. What is it?!?!?
Had a meeting at lunch for broadcasting. IMPORTANT meeting. Mr Nguyen talked to Mr Fabiano and Emerson. They said they are willing to give us a budget for equipment. Jr had a list of equipment we may need and Esther helped us with that. Mr Nguyen told him to write up a proposal and we were like "How do you do that.. What IS a proposal?".. So we have to get that settled. Also said that he spoke to Mr Fabiano and Emerson about the videos. They have invited us to go check out how LA Matheson does their's and maybe we could get software and unwanted cameras or mics or anything at all since their budget is supposedly higher than ours. Thinking of doing that next week. But we need drivers. Hogen said he could drive. Only thing is he needs a car. I just asked David but he said he can only drive one passenger unless he has a teacher in the car. Eep would be scary if we had Mr Fabiano in the car with us. 8| Rushed out of that meeting to catch the events. They did hula hooping [see who can hula hoop the longest].. and.......and...pizza eating contest and a limbo contest. Just those events took up more than the entire lunch. The bell rang while the limbo was going on and I caught the very last bit. Hm but out of everything, I think the teachers pizza eating contest was the best. Hilarious.. Mr Huzyk, Mr Nguyen, Mr Fabiano and Mr Pocock...Tomorrow's Texan Thursday. Gonna be line dancing I think. That would be fun to watch.
Ahhh!! I forgot my hat! How could I forget my hat!!!! Lots of people wore hats today..A LOT of caps..heh.. Had P.E first block.. Soccer's starting to get a weeeee little bit easier. All the drills and running.. pant pant pant...Peter and I asked Mr Slade if we were ever gonna play badminton. There are 4 PE classes and if it's rainy out, there's the weight room, small gym, and half of the big gym for 2 other classes. Hoping Stickley's class could go out in the second block for soccer. Then we get badminton in the second block tmr.. [fingers crossed!].. Piercy's and Robinson's classes can go outside and weight room or... outside and small gym or something.. PULEEEEAASE!! Got more planning work today.. I have a timeline to do and a title page due Friday...
~Top Hat Tuesday~
They had a 'Fear Factor' sorta thing today. People had to drink up stuff Ryan put together. Ingredients include: mustard, ketchup, olives [with the liquid], smoked oysters, tuna, coke, canned mandarins [with the juice], salt, sprinkles, cocoa powder... I think that's about it. Seemed like there was so much more. Blehhh [gag]..Videoed people gulping down oysters in coke!!?!? ECK.. Funny they were allowed to do this. After this week, Mr Fab's prob not gonna let us have any more fun this entire year.. Wonder if anyone got stomach aches or food poisoning.. Well.. looking forward to tmr.. Waikiki Wednesday..Wonder what's gonna happen.. David's gonna be hosting.. Wanta said something about hula hoops.. Prob some hula...hawaiian thing..Ick, I have to babysit later... 7pm to 10pm.. NOOOOOO
Have to start this portfolio thingamajig in Planning. Mr Stickley has like 3 sets/pages of notes and he only gets us to copy a page. He puts the notes up on the overhead and goes "ok! Don't copy this this this and this.. NO don't copy that! OR that!" Some kind of notes those are. So hard to write them down when they're all over. My page is full of chicken scratches...Now we have to start working on the portfolio, title page and all. Don't you think our "artistic abilities" are gonna be the same when we reach grade 12? Not better?
Anyway, today was Mexican Monday. The dress code was supposed to be either something Mexican or the colours green, white, and red. Cough cough.. only about 3 people in the entire school [1300 students] looked "Mexican-y". At lunch they had singing. Got people to come up and sing..hilarious..Right after, they had a pinnata [pinatta?]. Ryan was like "ok everyone! When the candy comes down, DON'T come crowding over to grab the candy. We will distribute it later." cough cough.. as if people were gonna do that and sure enough, everyone charges toward the candy like people who haven't eaten in forever..Well there's Mexican Monday.. I had to video the entire lunch hour.
Got news today from my relatives that my uncle has passed away. I wasn't there to see him but I'm sure his suffering has ended and he's in a better place now. Hope everyone is feeling ok over there......

Simon, Jay, Nolan and Adam are out in the rain right now playing hockey... Crazy people.. it's raining pretty hard too
Had our Terry Fox run today... It just HAD to be sunny.. tsk...Had gym first block.. Had to go out in the COOOOOOOLD.. Was freezing out there..Could see your breath..brrrrr..Had to do drills.. ECK.. But hey! I worked hard today!! I went for the ball! ah hA! hehe.. I gave myself an 8.. Mr Slade gave me a 9! Had to rush through my planning quiz.. which I did not quite get.. meh.. I managed to skip the run.[Hey, I donated a DOLLAR to that fund raiser] Was gonna walk it with Diane.. Jr gave me the camera to video.. We were like standing infront of the starting line to get a shot of the start when the run starts.. BAD IDEA! All these people come charging at you.. I was holding the camera and all these people are like coming up to it and sticking their hands all over...Hogen was like in the middle of it all.. Jr was like.. hey where did hogen go. .and he's like standing there waving at us.. Everyone was crossing over the division on the road and Mr Huzyk's like "Behind the yellow line.. Behind the yellow line! BEHIND THE YELLOW...... LINE!" Scary.. Mr Slade, of course came in first.. I think his timing was 8 minutes 16 seconds.. Was supposed to interview him after the run.. but too noisy.. So we did it after school..Mr Fabiano was in shorts and t-shirt as if he were gonna run. But did he? NO!! What was the point of that.. English... hmm. was ok. We had to write an essay on the character we chose from the short story "The Metaphor". Macrae doesn't believe in giving a lot of homework. Isn't that great.. oo yeh.. Stickley also said that she doesn't like sharing the portable with him.. hehe he was like grumbling about it this morning.. Art was pretty boring.. I couldn't draw! The warm up was A Memory AGAIN.. I couldn't put ANYTHING down on the paper so.. I skipped that.. will do it tmr.. Had to do double images.. Tried to get a man in a hat and a guy with a collared shirt. But Ms Mctavish said it was a bottle neck shirt.. I was like .. wha? and she brought me this book on Gothic Times?... I got me another sketchbook.. I love the new sketchbook.. ah.. i love new stationery.. hehe..pencils.. erasers.. I got a new kneadable eraser.. NOT stale. Mctavish always gives out stale erasers..anyway.. after school, I had to go do that interview.. Ick. I don't like doing interviews.. Just knowing there's a camera pointing at you.. I like camera person.. BEHIND.. Well we got that done.. Had to go talk to Mr Fabiano and Emerson. Jr and I did that.. We were in the office and Jr had to go talk to Mr Williams. He was like wait here.. 2 seconds! and He left.. I was like.. ok.. hmm. And Emerson is like looking at me and he's like.. Can I help you? I mess up my words. Like everything just didn't ocome out properly.. Jr came back and we explained the broadcasting. He said they were just thinking about that. When Fabiano came out of his office, we were discussing it and him and Emerson kept exchanging looks as if we were a joke or something.. They showed us into Emerson's office and they were gonna show us a video. On the way in, FAB [I'm gonna call him that. I would like FAG but.. meh] kicks one of those garbage picker upper thingamajigs that was leaning against the wall by the door. It falls over and blocks the doorway.. he looks down at it and walks RIGHT OVER it. Jr and I looked at each other. I was like [HULLO??!!? Are WE supposed to pick that up?!?!?].. Jr picked it up and we watched their "oh so great" videos..Hmm well they were PRETTY impressive. But awgh didn't have to be like [Mr Fab to Mr Emerson] "HA you showed them THAT one".. I was like [err ok there.. w/e] .. They're like.. "We think it's a GREAT idea".... ".. and grade 8s and 9s did that!!!" Psh whatever we were in grade 9 last year and the only reason we didn't get the video up was coz the SCHOOL had some technical problems..The way they spoke to us was as if they wanted us to meet those expectations or else we suck and LA Mathesons better than FH.. geez.. Just coz BOTH of you are from a different school don't FH sucks or anything.. They were sorta heading towards that.. Jr and I walked out of there feeling very.. very.. weird.. Spoke to Mr Nguyen and he's like "well don't try to meet his expectations yet.. get more people.. and *nudge nudge* they have more equipment.. get him to buy us more cameras and give us a room!".. hehe.. Perrrrrfect plan... wow.. this post is taking forever.. Talking to 3 people and it's so much of a distraction.. lotsta talk about.... It's raining now.. A whole clear day and now the rain comes back..Heard there was thunder and lightning last night and the ground rumbled.. anyway.. time for bed..
oooo I wanna watch Sharktale.. or Sharkslayer.. I think I like the name Sharkslayer better...
Had to babysit this evening...But this time a different set of kids.. Joey's classmate, Kaylee. There were 4 kids.. WHY do families like to have 4 kids? Anyway, there's Amanda, who's in FH... grade 8.. She's really nice..Kaylee, Joey's friend....Mathew.. He wasn't too bad.. For a kid who plays with Curtis and Kyle.. and Andrew.. He's soooooooooo cute... And he kept saying he was hungry but his mom said he can't eat.. lol.. he was like "I'm hungry..".. no wait .."Ahm hungy"... 2 years old.. soo adorable.. I brought a video for them.. but he wasn't interested.. heh.. Wanted to watch Brother Bear.. Kaylee played it for him.. He had to go to bed at 7:30/8ish... But he didn't want to.. I was like OK TIME FOR BED.. and he's like gonna cry.. Thankfully Kaylee has her way of making him go to bed.. Amanda stopped the dvd and said that the bear went to sleep.. hehe..hm well pretty easy evening.. their dog is SO scary.. kept jumping on me.. ieesh..They fed him 3 bowls of cereal coz they forgot to buy dog food.. I was like.. hmm ok....
Hm.. We had a meeting in the info tech room at the beginning of lunch.. We were waiting out infront in the hall, me, Krissy, Jr, David, Wanta, Hogen.... Had to wait for Lily and Diane who got out of PE late.. We planned out who would video the Terry Fox run and Welcome back week.. ..Was hoping to be able to skip the run and do a few interviews.. Well Jr and Hogen are doing that.. We need to get a camera.. David hasn't even watched the videos from last year. Jr and I actually managed to get an interview of Mr Baxter.. lol David was like "I didn't watch it... and I DID have a Summer vacation so I might have taped over it".. My dad said I could use his camera so that means I can video Welcome Back week.. Not sure what's happening on Friday but Hogen and Jr will take care of that.. Hoping to get the video done on Friday and copied onto VHS on Friday so that we can show it on Monday..hm but then we have to get permission to show it...
Tmr's gonna be great.. double block of planning which I don't mind.. first thing lunch, badminton... double block of art in library.. perfect day...nothing can possibly ruin that..
ARRRRR.. So frustrated with the website. I managed to change the layout yesterday. But then I still don't quite get it. ARG. I changed it to another default template. Whoever said 'Change is good' was WRONG. I had my blog like PERRRRfect before. Change is BAD. Screws you all up. I think I'll stick with my old layout until I figure some more stuff out. Grrrr
My dad left for Singapore this afternoon while I was at school. My uncle isn't doing too well. A lot of hustle and bustle going on... When I got back from school yesterday, my mom told me that he was leaving the following day and that she might leave Weds or Friday, depending on when she can get her air ticket. Had all this information being crammed into my head. My sister and I were supposed to stay on our own for.. who knows how long.. My other uncle would have to stay with us in the night. We wouldn't see him around much coz he'd be out at work pretty much the entire day. I would have to walk to school and my sister would be dropped off. After school, since I end later than she does, her classmates mom would pick her up and she'd go to their house and I would have to rush home and either wait for their call or call them to see if my sister decides to stay or come back. We'd have to do the laundry, the dishes, pack lunch. Dinners, we weren't sure what was gonna happen. My mom made so many phone calls last night and we kept receiving calls too...She called Uncle Fandi to see if she can get them to cook us a meal everyday or every other day. But they are lawyers and they know the law. We were supposed to sign some sorta form to state that they will be watching over us and are responsible blah blah blah...incase we get injured or whatever. While she was doing that, I was helping my dad make fruit juice. My sister had a break down.. started crying..Too much to handle.. Being alone for so long and having to follow her friend home everyday and to Richmond every Wednesdays and only being able to come back after dinner.. And then I have school work... broadcasting... badminton.. and alllll that. My mom decided not to go... Hm..
cough cough.. improved? not quite yet....hmm.. I changed the layout.. or TRIED to.. seems better.. now I have to figure out how to put the comment box in it and make the link to past posts better.. the layout doesn't work in the past posts... =S... figure it out tmr.. awgh the calendar is so ugly.. ifi can't make it smaller.. i'll take it out..
The first week of grade 10 is over.. Hmm well not quite.. Started on Tuesday.. Next week shall be official.. Some people are already piled with work.. I haven't had any work.. I have PE, PLAN, ENG, VAG... Nothing much.. 1 provincial for English... Gonna be a hard 2nd semester.. SS, SCI, FR, MAH... =(.. I have been SOOOOOOOO bored this entire day.. I actually wish I had work.. Get used to the work.. Library opens on Monday.. Couldn't take a book out on Friday.. Hmm...wow.. I have nothing to say.. Only that Grade 10 seems like it's gonna be a boring year.. Grade 9 was like the best year ever.. all the badminton and friends and ... yeh all that.. Should start thinking of the broadcasting.. At the moment the only person who is really wanting to get started is Jr.. But we don't have access to any of the school's video cameras.. Mr Baxter said that he got the school 3 new video cameras.. Don't know which departement they went to. Maybe the art rooms... We have assemblies on Monday.. Yeeeeah.. miss english.. or part of it at least..Week after that would be Welcome back week.. Starting off with Mexican Monday, Tophat Tuesday, Waikiki Wednesday, Texan Thursday, and Firehawk Friday.. Wonder what we're gonna be doing.. I wouldn't know how to dress for that cept for the Firehawk one.. Ooo.. This year, the shirts are nicer than last years.. It was bright red with the school amblem on it.. This year they darkened the colour and changed the logo.. It's the same as the badminton shirt! They stole our design!! Meh, well it looks better.. I wanna get that shirt... wow I am like going on and on about useless crap..
Hm.. Had a 45min homeroom.. Mr Horn is soooooo slow.. Takes him forever to collect school fees.. Takes him forever to assign lockers.. People are already in the hall 10 minutes into homeroom and he's still going on and on.. All our lockers are mixed up this year.. We're like all over the school..My locker ain't far from my old one.. Just further down..But hey I got a top locker.. Had to change for gym and we didn't do anything. Stayed in the weight room the whole time.. SITTING.. my legs were aching when I got up.. Imagine sitting cross legged for 65 minutes.. Planning.. hm.. I actually learned something today..Mr Stickley said that the brain only starts functioning at 10 in the morning. And they've been keeping it from us this whole time! Also.. he said that if you work at a problem for 5 minutes, your brain gets hot for 15.. which means you have like all these things running through your mind and stuff.. but if you work at it for 15 minutes, it stays hot for 6 hours.. So if you have something you need to memorize.. or anything.. work on it longer... English is gonna be.. PHEW...Macrae's pretty nice.. She got us to write in paragraph form, a description of yourself.. I wrote to her saying that I absolutely hate speeches and presentations.. hehe..Well it's the truth! Maybe she'll just do group or partner presentations.. She's really nice.. so..that's good.. Art, hmm we did the usual... Contour lines.. still life.. drawing after drawing.. and they are all incomplete...heh.. Art kits haven't arrived yet..Prob on Monday.. This week's nothing much..I can't decide whether grade 10's gonna be great.. or if it's gonna suck.. Coz next semester I have Socials, Science, French and Math Honors.... That's gonna be H-E-double hockey sticks.. !!!!!!!!!
Heh, I was watching Newlyweds... Jessica was preparing a Valentines Day suprise for Nick and she takes a huge candle out of the trunk of her car and goes. "mm I love the smell".. and her friend asks her "What's the smell" and she looks for the label and goes "o...it's unscented".. How much more 'blonde' can you get? Watched The Simple Life after that.. Weird show.. but somewhat interesting..
Ok.. must sleep now.. Earliest I've slept in so long..
I think the only course I am looking forward to this Semester is Art... Next semester won't be any better [cept for badminton]... I have homeroom with Mr Horn.. He is like really bad at explaining things.. "Anybody wanna map? guess not...... anybody wanna schedule paper thingy?... .....nvm...You need to have this signed.. Don't know why.. think it's stupid....".. lol.. Diane and I kept giving each other weird looks.. We usually get final schedules in homeroom to see if anything changed... Jin asked Mr Horn and he was like "no? what schedules" =_=....Then he opened the envelope and all our schedules were in there.. all nicely printed...One of my classes changed.. Like the room.. I have Planning and English in the same portable.. That sucks.. Don't like staying in the same place for very long..At least it's not one after anoter.. Get lunch between the two.. My gym class is.... well not that many people I talk to.. Simon from badminton.... Kristen... Jennifer...both Alice's.. Julian.. Adam.. hmm well I guess it won't be too bad.. Planning isn't a very big class so that's good.. Mr Stickley said that it's actually something you have to know.. Not like other courses... That's not to bad.. English.. I think isn't gonna be great.. Unless Macrae doesn't like speeches and presentations.. She likes groups so that's good.. If we do any presentations or speeches.. REALLY hope it's in pairs or groups.. Single speeches.. GAHHHHHHHH...Art.. now that's the only thing I look forward to.. Also badminton and the broadcasting...I have Kristen, Jessica, Alice, Jeremy in my class..Gonna be fun...Got an email from Jr about the broadcasting.. Was wondering if we should go look for Mr Nguyen.. Guess he beat me to it.. hehe..He has infotech 11 with Krissy and Lily...
After school, we were gonna go to Esso to get wedges or something.. The guy didn't have much so we went to Java Hut for ice cream.. mmm.. used up our vouchers... pretty good.. each of us had a double scoop.. had 10 dollars in the vouchers and someone paid a dollar to balance it off... Headed to Erma for a while.. It was sooooo hot.. Krissy, Lily and Diane were on the swings... heh I sat in the shade...
-8:35pm-
Hmm.. went rollerblading.. Tamara took Milly [Bunny Wabbit] out.. Put her in a cat leash and brought her for a walk...Linda was talking to her.. Everyone was out.. The knopps.. Amanda.. Tamara [mini one]...Eunice...Mags..... Chris was roller blading.. I never knew he could.. Not that well but he managed.. Ally built a "house" out of cardboard for Milly and we were watching her "escape".. Tamara talked to me.. She was like "I can't believe you're in grade 10 already... You're still so little.. like a child.." I was like [Thanks?].. Then she was like "So do you like any guys yet?" Now how was I supposed to answer that? I was like "Ummm.. errr. ehhhh.. hmmm" and she goes "You can tell me... I won't tell your mom.. "... [harhar]...
Spoke to Cain a few minutes ago...He was like "Saw your coach at the gym today" I was like [my coach? Mr Slade? wth but Mr Slade doesn't play.. and it's youth drop in so it can't be him.. then I was like.. OH Harry]... He said I don't listen to Harry.. Hm.. all he said was to hit harder.. Then I thought about it.. I DID listen to Harry when he coached.. Mix and Doubles... hehe spoke to Harry about that too.. Ooo Was talking to Jensen and he said that there's a girl from JH that played badminton.. I was like.. thinking thinking.. Then I was like Tina? Coz there was this girl in my homeroom named Tina and she looked SOOOOOO familliar.. She's from JH.. figured that out..But we aren't sure she's that great at badminton.. She got cut from the JH team.. and the girls on the JH team weren't THAT great when we played them..They were a bit of a challenge but not EXTREMELY great.. so Jensen and I came to the conclusion.. nah she ain't that great.. =P
School starts tmr... Today is the last day of my.. freedom??torture?? I can't decide which one... I'm stuck at my uncle's house when I could be going over to a friends for the afternoon for the last day of the Summer vacation...gonna be a looooong afternoon..

Still wonder if I should have played hockey with Alex, Simon and Jay.. hmm..Hayley was playing with Mags.. and they had this huge blue ball that they were bouncing around.. Hayley like kept trying to get the ball and she wouldn't pass it to Mags.. I was like =_= Hayley, it's just a ball... Oh yeh.. I went over to Krissy's after we got back from my uncles.. Lily was playing some game on the computer.. we played speed....big 2....99.. really don't like that game, 99.. lol too much math involved.. [cough cough addition and subtraction =P]...Alex came by too..Diane was flipping through the yearbook and she kept laughing at what she wrote in there.. hehe.. Then she rode Alex's bike.. His seat is like SOOOO high...lol.. Diane was complaining about how the seat was weird and it pointed UP.. [LOL diane!]...Well.. Summer 2004 is over.. Gonna be a great grade 10...
I'm at Cain's house.. Really boring.. I had Bak Kut Teh? Had abc soup at home. I had nothing but water for dinner.. Saw Cain for like 10 minutes and he went out. Joey's playing video games.. everyone else is talk talk talking..Uncle Fandy let me use his computer.. =).. Talking to Diane and Yee Kor.. No one else interesting to talk to on..=(
Hmm Cain came back for like 5 minutes and then left again.. He asked me if I wanted a Sega Genesis? I was like.. A what? Showed me this console.. Sega.. We didn't look at it coz he had to go..
Played "family" badminton this morning. Ok these were the people in my "family" today. My mom, dad, me, Joey, Diane, David and Hogen [who unfortunately did not make it because his car broke down..poor guy] Anyway.. my mom and sis were waiting for my uncle to come while my dad got the rest of us in. David was like trying to hide his face.. lol.. All asian families and then there's David...Rallied with Diane, Jensen and David for a while then my dad and uncle got them to play a game. That was one exciting game.. hehe.. The JH coach came by today and I played with him.. Played with Diane.. my uncle wanted to play with us.. then my parents get us to come over to their court.. I was like... eh.. there are 5 free courts.. why must we go to that one? Even my uncle gave me a weird look.. lol.. so ah well .. we went there.. and played doubles..Jensen wanted to play singles with my uncle.. hehe .. He plays with like everyone and gets them to help him and he ends up being a lot better.. hmm.. one day left of freedom.. School starts tuesday.. 10:30am to 11:40am. ha.. nothing much..
Listening to Muse... Siong Chin said I'd like them. Didn't believe him at first.. Have to listen to their songs over and over before you like them. Have to go out for dinner later at Aunty Kheng Lee's... Another boring dinner.. Jojo said that we can bring the gamecube.. meh..
Only 2 days left of the Summer...School starts on Tuesday, 7th. Ahhhhhh. I'm only just starting to enjoy the badminton! I played today with Krissy and Diane. Rallied with Jensen.. lol Jensen kept doing drops to the left corner and Diane got so frustrated. She either didn't get it or got it at the last minute but raised it too high and I smashed. But most of my smashes hit the net!!! Noooo.. gotta work on that... Wasn't all bad.. Borrowed a bird from Esther. Ours was gonna fall apart.. heh.. She was like "Gotta return it k?" I was like yeh I will. Of course I will. Then I played doubles with Annie, Grace and Jenny.. I brought the bird with me! Played the game.. ha.. best 2 out of 3.. Jenny and I lost the first game 11 to 15.. Pretty close tho! Annie and Grace are supposed to be the best girls on the Senior team. Second game was bad bad bad bad bad.. 4 to 15 I think.. heh.. WHAT HAPPENED?!?! lol anyway.. I forget about the bird.. Annie and Grace take it.. This guy.. I think he's the one who schedules the badminton tournament. There's a 1st Annual Guildford Recreational Badminton Tournament from Sept 9th to 12th. Jenny wanted me to play doubles with her. Not sure if I should. I would. But then it's like.. Friday: 6pm Saturday: 8am Sunday: 9am... and they might have finals some other time. Thursday, don't think they're gonna have a game that day. I don't even know who's in the whole thing. They don't have enough entries and MAY not have it or re-schedule it to a later date so they can get more entries in. Don't know who has paid and entered the competition. =S. Well Jenny's pretty easy to play with. Girls are so much easier to play with.. lol they don't get frustrated and mad and arg.. Well... I'll consider.. got Jenny's email.. She said that if we actually get somewhere in the tournament, that she's gonna make me join the Senior team. I was like "gulp"...
Bailey was outside... Chris, Joey, Mags and Ally were out petting him. [He's a dog btw..lol].. So nice to see Christopher, who is such a bad kid actually be NICE for once... ok maybe he isn't THAT bad.. But he is an evil little kid.. I mean how can you possibly get expelled from school in grade 2! He has to take home schooling now..
Was suppose to play badminton yesterday, 5:30 to 8:45pm. But the gym was sooooooo full. People who signed up in the morning or called in, I suppose already paid and got in. That sucks. Should be like first come first serve. The lady at the counter didn't even let us sign in. That sucked. Harry, Jensen and Grace were there. Grace was like.. "Go there and ask them to sign you on again!" lol.. "You gotta go at least 5 times!".. Well we decided to leave. Went to Mc D's for "dinner".. Then we walked back to the gym to see if there was at least SOME space.. Nope.. so we left.. Bumped into Esther and Jenny outside the library and we talked.. Said that they don't have enough Sr girls on the team and asked if we were interested. Hmm.. Sr badminton is in the Fall and Jr is in the Spring.. wonder if I can do both. I'll probably suck so bad if I played with the Seniors tho...
Ok something REALLY stupid happened yesterday...I was outside blading.. Hayley, Amanda, Tamara and her sister were outside. Hayley had to follow Trevor to karate and she needed her gameboy. Amanda had it. Probably borrowed it or something. So Hayley gets Amanda to go get it for her and Amanda makes such a fuss over going inside to get it. She's like "I don't wanna go inside! I'll have to take my shoes off and go all the way upstairs!" Hayley keeps asking her for it but Amanda throws this fit.. jeeeeez... It's JUST a gameboy, go get it! And it belongs to Hayley.. Amanda was like "...so.. it doesn't belong to me.. why don't YOU go inside to get it" OBVIOUSLY Hayley can't go into someone elses house to get her gameboy.. So Hayley goes "Why don't you get your mom or dad or uncle to get it" And Amanda gives such a stupid reason "Coz they're BUSY watching tv" god!!! Really felt like slapping her..
Woke up this morning at 6:33am... heh. Played badminton from 7 to 9am.. sleeeepy -__-zzzz... hmm I met Jensen and Ke-li there. I waited there for about less than a minute and then Jenson shows up. We waited about 5 minutes. By there it was around 7:15.. So we decide to go phone him. Found out he was still sleeping.. heh.. So we go in and play... Rallying continuously is hard.. Makes you so tired whenyou keep hitting it back and forth and.. @_@.. Not that many people there. It's half a gym, 4 courts.. There were 2 guys from Seaquam, a korean family...2 little kids and their dad.. and another friend oftheirs.. we had one court.. Ok this korean guy, he has 2 sons and a daughter. I was sitting out watching Jensen rally Ke-li and he goes up to them and gets them to play doubles with his sons.. Then he looks at me.. I'm like "..... hi?" Gets me and his daughter to play mix with the 2 Seaquam guys.. Well they couldn't say no.. heh.. That wasn't a very fun game... heh.. Then I rallied that girl in singles and talked to her..She's from Surrey Christian.. Didn't play them last season.. Only in grade 8. Didn't get what grade she was in tho.. THEN her dad comes again and gets this old guy to play with us and Ju Yong, the girl, she comes to my side. lol.. Can tell she doesn't wanna play with her dad.. =P.. Well pretty good for 2 hours.. in the morning.. I need my sleep now.. =).. I rollerbladed this morning to..heh my workout for the day..
Hmm really strange.. It hailed just a few minutes ago.. The whole morning has been cloudy and just a little sun shining every now and then.. Then it started to hail and all the rain came pouring down really hard.. That is so strange.. BIG droplets of water splattering on the roof. I was out on the deck trying to catch hail.. lol.. When I came back upstairs.. Thunder boomed so loudly... That is sooooo unusual.. I rarely hear thunder here.. This is the 2nd time I've heard thunder that loud.. It didn't even rain for that long.. passing shower.. Turning into a tropical rainfall!!! =S
heh.. Badminton on Thursday[tmr] is 5:30pm to 8:45pm.. Jensen asked me this morning if I was gonna go. He was like "You gonna go tmr?" and right after.. he didn't give me any time to answer and he was like "yeh.. you need a ride" I mean even HE knows that it's so hard for me to get a ride. He said that there isn't a jam going there. But he wasn't sure if there was one coming back. sigh.. guess I'll have to stay home this Thursday again.. I can't wait for school to start. Then I won't need anyone to drive. I'll just stay back after school and play with the Sr's. Then I can walk back on my own...Hm but then Mr Slade is gonna start that club.. which is in Delta. Hopefully we can get rides.. or else that would suck so bad.. Can't play in Delta.. can't play at Guildford.. then there would be no point in school starting...
