I went to a POP concert... That apparently was a benefit concert for Haiti... Remember Haiti?

Today was my last day of co-op. Except I'm not completely done, because I still have to get my time sheet signed by my supervisor sometime this week, but I also have to do an exit interview type thing tomorrow.

Hopefully my mom will be able to pick me up and such. As I have to do some little things in the afternoon. YEAH.

My sister leaves for New York tomorrow. I'm all "oooh". She booked her flight for 6:10 or something, so my dad has to drive her to the airport IN THE MORNING! I'm sure it's going to be intense, with my dad being tired and such. It happens.

So today I went to a concert. I went for The New Cities, but they only played four songs? Yes. The rest of the bands were... Danny Fernandes, Jesse Lebelle, Emily Osment and Alyssa Reid. I got to meet the main singers of each act, and it was "thank you" and move on. It wasn't like "OMG! I HATE YOU ON HANNAH MONTANA!" Etc. etc.

It's not that I HATE Osment herself... It's just the SHOW. I mean, they overact EVERYTHING! It's like living in a tween's bedroom during a sleepover with loads of energy drinks.

Yes.

Back to co-op: I got fifty dollars in credit for my account. They were all "we did this" and I'm all "THANKS!" And I handed them my letter of thanks, where I mention Jack Bauer. I cannot keep my THOUGHTS to myself. I mean, even if it's a FORMAL setting, I can't keep it that. It's difficult being in my life.

NOT REALLY.

It's just kind of embarrassing rereading answer tests and such. As you can imagine.

ETC.

My back/neck hurts. INTENSE! I don't know.

So hey...

Yeah.

It's okay. Really. (truth)

I'm working on a big powerpoint that I have to present tomorrow.

As in, I'm juuuuuuuuuuust opening the powerpoint program and starting the presentation. It's okay though, because it's my last BIG presentation for high school, and and and I don't mind too much.

Truth!

Although I can really see myself staying up late to finish it... Yes.

But as I said before... It's okay.

Today I listened to music, and did my work at co-op. I also had a really funny time in second period, where I started to laugh a lot. I also annoyed this guy who sits across from me, I think. Not just I THINK, but I KNOW. But that's okay! My teacher did mention about doing our review for our class on HARRY POTTER. And she was all, "thanks for the idea!" So yeah! -bows-

It's fun stuff.

Magazine past!

Reading through the magazines I've got in my room right now, I have noticed that No Doubt was still heavily in everything, as was Simple Plan. I mean, they could be now, but I don't buy them to know. And when I saw teen magazines, I'm talking about lameo M, J-14 and whatever else I could get my grubby hands on in my past.

SHEESH. I'm all "I actually BOUGHT THESE?!" and my sister laughed, telling me I would say the same thing to the magazines I've got now.

I cannot imagine saying that! The magazines I buy now have SUBSTANCE!

Yes, that's why you can't even follow the fashion advice a few months after. BECAUSE YOU KNOW, I'm so up to the minute with fashion! *rolls eyes* I'm just saying, in a general thing. Because I guess you could follow the health advice, etc. etc. Unless it's from the past and it's all "throw up your meals!" I don't have any magazines that say that, but eh eh!

Although I was looking through one of my mom's magazines from... the early 80s, and one had a LOT of advertisements for cigarettes! It blew my mind how much there was. The view on smoking sure has changed. Yes.

I'm really glad tomorrow is Friday. Today I wanted to leave co-op early, but I couldn't: I was the only one working alongside my supervisor. So I couldn't exactly just ditch/leave. I did leave early (as in, 15 minutes) that allowed me to scoot over across the road and buy a book.

A BOOK I WON'T READ SO I CAN GET SOME CREDIT FOR IT. Yeah!

As credit is awesome.

I picked a book yesterday on what I wanted the store to buy (it was YA, I had the final choice) and so I put it on hold. Except the girl who dropped them off never came around to pick up her cheque and confirm the order, so I can't get it yet. It's a book on Ophelia! AS IN, her untold story! It looks interesting, so I was like "ooh". Ophelia is the tragic character from Hamlet, of course. I mean, just one of the many in that play. ETC.

Today my former "BFF" came in. When I saw her walk through the door, I was like "WHOAH". Haha, yes. I decided not to make it awkward with trying to ignore her or anything. I mean, I wouldn't do that, but yes. We talked, and she was all "did you see New Moon?" Haha, oh. Because I was still obsessed with Twilight when I stopped being friends with her. So I was all "TIMES HAVE CHANGED" etc. Yeah! Once she left, my supervisor went: "You looked so awkward when she was here!"

SERIOUSLY? MY BODY LANGUAGE WAS AWKWARD? I didn't know that! Sheesh. And this is what he said: "So what happened?" and I was like "we had an awkward falling out." And straight up, he said "did she hit on you?" I was like "..." Yes. So apparently he can read things. "It was noticeable the moment she walked in." !!! WHOAH. INTENSE.

ALTHOUGH! SHE SAID NERDFIGHTERS AND I WAS LIKE !!!!!!!!!!!!! I got so excited. Yeah! So maybe I can talk to her or something. =)

P.S: I love the long comments!

I bought a BIG drink today!!

Hello!

Glee is on tonight. I'm excited for it. I saw a preview for it, and they were all "you can't sing anymore" and Rachel was all "WHAT?!" And the doctor was all, "just kidding". Haha.

Today I was THISCLOSE to leaving early, but this girl brought in a BIG box full of YA books. And since I'm responsible for the YA section, I had to stay. "I had to stay"... As in, I had to stay until 4, guaranteed. Disappointing! Not really. After co-op, I went to Starbucks, and bought a strawberry and cream frapp. I bought a venti for SOME ODD REASON, and my eyes popped out of my face when I saw the size.

THAT WAS HUGE!

So I got two straws, and shared it with my sister.

(I know the reason why I got the venti. First off, I had the change, and secondly, it was just like, a few more dimes to get it. SO WHY NOT!?)

Right now there is this comedy thing on, and I want to watch it! So I will talk to you later blog. Expect some awesome stuff later this week.

- Possum

I had a chicken nugget happy meal today to support CHILDREN!

I watched Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. And after that, I watched an episode of Bones. It was very Smithsonian-ish. I loved Bones tonight! It made me happy to see two of my favorite characters FINALLY be awesome together! Truly.

Last night Glee was awesome.

Today at co-op, I played I Spy with my co-worker. You know those I Spy books? Well, we both went through pages, trying to find stuff. MAN! Those things are difficult! But it's cool to say I caught a few he didn't! And whenever I did find one, he was like "awesome". It was comical.

^__^

My friend's pregnant! She's only two weeks, but WHOAH. That kind of blows my mind. And this guy is all "get an abortion!" but she's all "NO! I AM AGAINST THAT!" The guy isn't even her boyfriend, just a friend. So yesh! I don't know what will happen with that, really. I hope she stops drinking and whatnot.

YEAH.

So I don't know. Today I was all "I KNOW WHO KARL MARX IS" and had to talk about the Russian Revolution to my Business class. Oh, the good stuff with that! It was cool to know some knowledge that the rest of my classmates didn't know, though! Oh thank you, history class! I also like when knowledge from other classes come into play. It's nice! Totally makes other classes actually useful.

It rained today. I saw an old friend on the bus. I waved. It was awkward. My heart rate went up. I got nervous.

Yeah.

In second period, we just discussed prejudices, and all that lovely stuff. So I had to pick a GROUP of people that have prejudices against them. After playing with the idea of doing a Justin Bieber fail thing, I decided on a group! And I was all "MORMONS! THEY HAVE INCEST IN THEIR FAMILIES!" So that was nice. I get to talk about that to my class tomorrow. My group member made me laugh a bit, because he was all "they keep on banging each other!" He has a way with words. It was amusing, a smidgen.

Well, I should get off. I am tuckered out.

I was going to buy some MORE books, but I couldn't find them. ;-;

I'm making a cake right now. It's currently in the oven, turning into some MOIST, SOLID goodness. It was just from the box, so it's not like, hours of effort. I'm pretty positive I mixed the entire thing and put it in the oven in less than ten minutes. Yeah, I am a smooth winner of epic proportions.

I also have to help my brother make cookies, as he's got a bake sale or something at school tomorrow. I say that I am a nice sister for doing that. Although my brother has a real talent for making GOOD cookies; Unburned, chocolately goodness in your mouth. I cannot do that.

I made cookies over the weekend, oatmeal coconut chocolate chip cookies, and while they weren't BURNED, they weren't picturesque. Plus the fact that I had some still in the oven when I went to make something in the oven didn't BODE well for the last batch. They didn't burn, but they did turn even more brown on the top. EPIC!

They're okay though... Cruncy more so than chewy.

Today I bought The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis at co-op. I actually just used my credit, so no money actually went into the exchange. It was nice. I was also going to buy Fahrenheit 451, but the copy I was hiding in some other section was NOT BEING NOTICEABLE! I guess I DID hide it well! And when I say HIDE IT, I just meant putting it somewhere where I could grab it later...

Man, I am a horrible person. But that copy of the book was three dollars cheaper than the other one! So why pay more? EXACTLY. I was just being savvy. Except y'know, ultimately failed. I'm going to have to keep on creepin', to see if I spot it. The same thing happened with The Catcher in the Rye. I'm always disappointing myself.

*sad face*

Today I got to listen to a hockey player TALK about GOALS. IT WAS SO BORING! All I did was go ... the entire time, and want to leave. Except I stayed! And when it was over, I went back to my class. As did two other students. I got to leave early though, and walk to the bus. It was nice, without the rushing! Except I WAS rushing, because my friend was ahead of me, so I was trying to catch up to her. I did! That was nice.

Except her best friend is dating the guy she likes, and it's causing some drama in her life. DRAMA SUCKS. AS do lame friends! DOWN WITH LAME FRIENDS, I DECLARE!!!1

TRUTH!

Well, I gotta go deal with that cake now. I hope it didn't burn too much!

Mhm.

Today is Thursday, and it's like Friday for me! WHY? Well Bob, I haven't got any school tomorrow! YAY!

So today we had a breakfast party in first period (where I sat alone, listening to music), AND in second, we learned about BILL 94 (what?! yeah...). IT WAS EXCITING!

Not really.

Today at co-op, my supervisor was all like, "if you see there isn't anything to do, you can just leave" and I was like "THANKS!" But I pretty much stayed there until 3:30, when he told me to go. Not in a mean way, but in a more "Hey! Start your weekend early."

SO JUST IN MY SHIRT AND A NOT EVEN REAL SWEATER, I had to shimmy over to Chapters, because it was starting to RAIN! Very sucky, let me tell you.

So in Chapters, I just kind of walked around, being a little fool. I did buy Charmed Thirds by Megan McCafferty, though! It was $4.99 in hardcover, so I thought that was nice. I have to wait until May to actually receive it though, `cause it wasn't in stock.

OHSWELLS. I can wait for Jessica Darling and Co!

Anyway, I found out my mom and brother went away for the weekend, so it's just my sister, dad and I home this weekend. This happens quite a bit, so it's not really OUT OF THE ORDINARY! It's just weird, because I don't know. So tomorrow I get to STAY HOME ALONE, and eat french fries! YUMMY.

Yeah.

I might get Wednesdays off!!!

I missed Glee last night.

Today my supervisor said that he might call me off on Wednesdays, due to it being a slow day. I was like "cool!" but I didn't want to see too excited about the whole situation. As I don't even know if he'll actually do it, AND if it's even allowed. But if so, exciting!

Because I mean, if I stay home for every Wednesday coming up until the end of the year (including morning classes, I mean), that is SEVEN absenses on my report card. AND! Since I only have ONE right now, that'd be EIGHT absenses for the entire semester! That doesn't seem SO much, does it? (I realize it is a bit high, but I've had MORE in my past high school experience. Seriously.)

Except missing every Wednesday is a bit sketchy behaviour. So even if I just miss co-op, that's not a whole lot of suck! So I'm kind of excited to see if he brings up the whole THING again.

So my aunt was moving today. So my mom and I helped her. Aka: I kept my little cousin entertained. We played stuff in her new backyard, played in her old room, AND she showed me her new yellow room. She's amusing. She was all "where's Maegan?" Aka: My sister. And I told her she WASN'T THERE, because I know EXACTLY how to answer questions! And she was like "oh". And then she was like "where's Bubby?" Aka: My dad. I don't know WHY she calls him that, but that's the way it goes. So I explained that he was with my sister, and I was just there. She's an adorkable little kid, I gotta say.

NEWS FLASH: I find people's ears and hair attractive! Aka: The back of their heads! I don't even have to LIKE THEM, and I find it AWESOME. Therefore, I need to find someone who's FRONT also makes me happy! Yes, it was quite a little epiphany on the bus this afternoon.

I can't say the person in front of me helped me reach that (he was smelly!), but it crossed my mind. YEAH. Nice nice.

Ahhhhhhhhh lovely. *thinks*

MY DAY

I'm so tired right now.

Today I read a few articles in business, discussed our independent study projects, and wrote "DFTBA" on my binder a few times over. In second period, a girl saw the binder, and asked what it stood for. I went into a long answer about nerdfighters in general, and came off as a TOTAL NERD.

Also, I think I gave the impression of a CULT LIKE MEMBER! "It's not like a cult though!" So we laughed about it for a bit. Yes. It was fun. We also reviewed for the test tomorrow, and it's fun. I feel like I should be studying RIGHT NOW, but I'm too tired.

And lazy.

It's really not a great combination to be. But what can I say?

I need to learn how to go to sleep early.

Today a boy came into my co-op. He was funny, and went on about some stuff. He wasn't just talking to me, but to my co-workers in general. Due to my general QUIET levels, he thought that I was annoyed with him, but I wasn't. He was pretty friendly, and I found him quite amusing. He especially made me laugh when he commented on my co-workers classy levels in wearing high socks with sandals. I like my co-worker, but it is still kind of funny to see him wearing that combination of foot wear.

Yes, truth.

Well, tomorrow I'm going to see Our Lady Peace, and I'm exicted. I'm sad I'm going to miss Glee, but I'll watch it on the internet or something. But right now, I'm going to shove some stuff in a box and see what else I can mail. TRUE TRUE.

P.S: I can hear my siblings discussing the take over of my room next year.

I gots credit!!

I was on the bus this afternoon, and I was listening to my ipod. My bus buddy wasn't on, so what else was I supposed to do? So yes, I was listening and just enjoying the TUNES that came from the earbuds into my ears!

So, it's near my stop, and I take off my earbuds. Because I mean, I don't want them on when I'm getting OFF the bus, or, god forbid, when I'm walking into co-op. So there I was, turning off my ipod, when I hear it.

I freeze, suddenly overcome with a fear to turn around. WHY?!?!?

Well, I heard a VOICE! A voice of a particular girl who ANNOYS me. I mean, I used to be on friendly terms with her, but when I was like "hey, I don't like you" to her friend, it was like "I DON'T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR EXISTENCE!"

(I didn't actually say "I don't like you" to her, by the way.)

So I kind of turn my head to CONFIRM my suspicions, and they were confirmed. Not only that, the girl sitting beside her was the SISTER of the girl previously mentioned. So it was all "turn around and stare straight ahead". I got so nervous! Like my heartrate went up, and I started to panic slightly.

Because the girl used to be friends with my sister, but when I stopped talking to her sister, my sister stopped talking to her, which caused some TENSION. (I realize that sounds REALLY confusing.)

Anyways, I don't know if they NOTICED me, but I noticed them! And it was an oddddddddd experience.

Also!: Today I brought in a few Garfield books into my co-op placement, and I got $31 dollars in credit! YES! It was exciting. So I made an account for myself, and felt proud of myself. I also bought Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone on cassette with that credit for $1.95 due to them being on sale. Yeah! I was planning on buying it earlier, but good thing I waited! True story.

Anyway, it was a good day. It went by quickly, and I'm surprised it's already the hour it is! Intense.

Afternoon = cool

I'm really tired right now, but I don't want to sleep. Glee is on at 8PM, and I actually want to sleep tonight for a reasonable amount of hours. Because last night I stayed up for awhile talking to someone, AND playing tetris! I was playing under my blanket, going "LINE! LINE! LINE! LINE!"

Plus I was downloading this THREE MINUTE video on youtube and it took like TWO + HOURS! SERIOUSLY! So lame. But it was well worth it! As it put a smile on my face.

I'm kind of cold right now. So I'm wearing my sweater AND my robe. But it's my legs that are cold, and I'm wearing shorts. I should just go put on pjs, but I don't want to. Fail. -_-

ANYWAY!

Today my cousin came to my co-op today, bringing in books. As she was an English major, she had quite a bit! Plus she's moving away soon, so it was nice to see her. I suggested her some books, and that was cool, too! I told her that the vampires in the Black Dagger Brotherhood would make her forget Edward Cullen (she likes Twilight!) and she said: "Edward Cullen IS kind of corny." Haha, it was nice of her to say that. Except the store didn't have the first book in the series, so she didn't get it. lame! But at least I planted it in her mind!

Yeah!

AND! My supervisor let me go a half-hour early today! My sister was there, and he's like "you know what? Just go" and I was like "THANKS!" It totally redeemed his annoying qualities today. Because for some reason, he was kind of getting on my nerves. I blame this on my own PERSONAL problems, so that's okay.

Yesh!

Overall, it was an okay afternoon. The morning was okay, too. We finished The Grey Zone, and it wasn't as sucky as yesterday. As in, I got into it, and was like ! at the end. But my teacher lied, because it DIDN'T change the way I look at things. I pointed this out to some people at my table, and they agreed. "The anti-hype should be put into place!" But of course, they didn't really know too much about that.

Ah well!

- Possum

Movies... Fail... No... Yeah...

I didn't watch all those movies I was planning on! I only watched Hanging Up, which turned out to be a BUST OF LAME! Why are movies hyped up so much, but FALL FLAT ON THEIR FACES?! I'm looking at you, My Best Friend's Wedding.

This is where the anti-hype should come into play. Without a doubt in my mind, that is the RIGHT thing to do. To give credit to Hanging Up, I saw the preview, and thought it looked AWESOME. And I was like "It has Lisa Kudrow on it!" Yeah... That didn't change the sucky levels that movie brought on. I don't even think I watched the entire thing. I just kind of wandered off after awhile. It didn't help my mom wanted to watch it with me, so I had to REWIND it. Hah.

Confession: I got distraced by the nice weather!

Nice weather, yay!

It's kind of chilly in the morning, but it's okay in the afternoon. It's kind of hot! Especially when you're doing PHYSICAL work at co-op! Dundundun! No, ha. I just had to vacuum all the little corners and stuff in the bookshelf. It was repetitive and I took a really long time doing something that should've been done QUICK. (I had to go under every single shelf!)

I realize: I shouldn't be blogging about my co-op! I always read stuff in magazines about how blogging about your WORKPLACE is bad! But they will NEVER find out about this. (One of the reasons why I never mention my place by name! YES! Or even my REAL name! Dun dun dun.)

Yeah... Although it's not that hard to figure it out.

Today was an okay day, compared to last week. I took the bus to school, because I didn't want to deal with my dad, but it turned out my MOM was driving! So that was lame, but I was able to have some quality time with my ipod. So that was nice. Yeah. I kept on trying to see if I could see her when I was on the bus, but I didn't. It was kind of disappointing.

So today in second period, we were watching The Grey Zone. It's about World War Two, and all that lovely stuff. So there's this scene where David Arquette's character is beating up some guy! Because he had his watch on, when he's going into the "showers" and that's BAD! So David A's character is all "give me the watch" and the guy was all "TELL ME I WON'T DIE". Except you know... World War II = SUCKY TIMES FOR LIVING. So when the guy doesn't give David A the watch, he starts to punch him! LIKE VIOLENTLY!

And while this was going on, his WIFE (the guy being beat up) was SCREAMING! And I started to laugh at this, because it was ridiculous! I mean, I wasn't laughing at the guy being beat up, but the woman! It was nervous laughter, however. I felt bad for laughing. Because it's A SERIOUS movie, that my student teacher said would CHANGE MY LIFE.

As would Looking for Alaska, and stuff. Man, they do NOT put the anti-hype on these stuff.

So anyways, the woman gets shot from being a rukus, and this guy in my class was like "FINALLY! THANK YOU!" And the class kind of laughed, because it was funny. The guy in my class made it more funny than it actually was, by the way.

So, have you ever felt awkward about laughing at something in a movie that you SHOULDN'T even be laughing at?

Another comment he made: The guy in my class, I mean: "Anyone else have a watch?" Aka: What to say to the other people. I was like hahaha.

It's a boring movie, by the way. I wasn't getting into it, due to NO CAPTIONS! and the light was making it hard to see ANYTHING. You'd think my school would be able to afford BLINDS! So yesh.

I wasn't expecting today to be a good day, but it turned out alright. It was quite nice. I actually felt all BLAH on the bus this morning, and I was THISCLOSE to crying! But I didn't, because I put my mind to other things. I fail at life, sometimes. Just sayin'.

I want my mother, now! As she is awesome. As is her OFFSPRING. =)

Hey-ay!

I bought The Shack, Thirst VOLUME ONE (just for credit purposes at my co-op) and an old edition of Glamour today.

Co-op was busy today! As soon as I shimmied through the door, I was busy. And I got really angry at one of my co-workers today. He was like "put these away" and "do that" and while it's my JOB to do that, I was like "!!!" PMS, how you suck.

So whenever he asked me to do something, I would curse silently in my head to him. So if anyone could READ MINDS today, I'd be a very angry person. Lovely, ain't it? Yeah.

I was able to pick out SIX books for a school to buy for their library! Since the YA section is "MY SECTION" (seriously, that's what it's called by my supervisor), I was able to "assist" the situation. Aka: I picked out books for them to buy for FEMALES. I was a little rushed in the last SECOND, so I grabbed a few random ones.

As chosen, here it is:

- 13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson
- How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot
- Feeling Sorry for Celia by Jaclyn Moriarty
- The Boyfriend List by E. Lockhart
- The Au Pairs by Melissa de la Cruz (last minute choice!)
- Pants on Fire by Meg Cabot

I was asked to organize the CURRENT EVENTS section, and I was like "sure!" Because I don't mind organzing a shelf, usually, because it passes the time much more quickly. But I wasn't even in the "F" section when the STUPID co-worker comes up to me and says: "When you're done with that, I have a big stack of books for you to put on the shelf."

And I was like (in my head), "C'MON! I'M ALREADY DOING SOMETHING ELSE!" But because it was YA, it was slightly better. So I just kind of left the current affairs to CALM DOWN. And I went to my lovely YA, and got distracted by some of the back covers: I want to read some of them!

But I was really bored by the ones that are like "I love him!" I don't really WANT to read LOVE STORIES right now. I want something with MORE to it, you know? Yeah.

So there is that: I need to read the Tomorrow series. It's so good, you're not disappointed. ^__^

I brush

I had a career fair type thing to do today, with my co-op class. While I thought I wouldn't be able to finish the poster board, I was able to! And even have pizza at lunch instead of working on it. I did have to sit through an annoying SKILLS CANADA presentation, but it was okay. It was just boring for me because while the skills is an interesting thing to get into, I KNOW I'm not going to do anything with that.

So some boring information during that time.

Today was a day where I was like "!". This morning I felt really BAD, and to distract myself, I brushed my teeth. Multiple times. I could've spent more time flossing, but whatever: I'll do that later. xD It's the thing to do!

RANDOM FACT THAT ANYONE CAN WORK WITH: I hate forgetting things at home!

Today I forgot some stuff I was supposed to hand in for co-op, but it was in my room. IN MY SOCK BASKET! Fail. That basket is a fail even more, at times time. There isn't even good socks in there! Pssh.

But I like socks. I need to buy some more.

- Julia

i finally did it.

I'm eating some pretzels right now, as I type this. As in, I'm chewing them and getting ready to swallow. Yummay!

There's just something about the salty treat that I love. True fact.

It was my dad's birthday today. So when he picked me up from work, I asked him where he wanted to eat. Because food = love on your birthday. Actually, food = love just in general. You can't deny that fact.

^__^

Today my dad and I went to a talk thing. This university student working on her PhD was there, so we did a survey thing for her. Or my dad did, anyways. I couldn't. I COULD'VE, but I didn't have the second requirement to do the survey. It was disappointing, because there was a prize of a $50 gift card to the mall. I did grab a few YOU'RE A GUEST IN THUNDER BAY for my American Twin. It wasn't a ploy her to see the awesome-ness of my city or anything--It was just so she'd have something to read about my city and the stores here!

WOW! I totally forgot: I worked the cash machine today! I made a few mistakes with putting the amount of money the person was giving me (a hundred, opposed to ten), but it went okay. The thing I was MOST worried about (giving them change) wasn't much of a problem. This will probably change, because the people were giving me bills, opposed to loose change and stuff. OH MAN! PANIC! But I kept calm: Because Leah, Homer and Ellie were with me!

I think he was surprised when I said YES, I'LL DO IT! because he was all "... You'll have to use the calculator," that I CANNOT MASTER! But I was all "I'll do it!" Because I was thinking of the awesome trio that should come into my life, from Tennessee AND books! TRUE FACT!

But don't worry, I didn't grab the books on my city to get that to come true.

Worries and stress, oh my.

Today I was asked if I wanted to do the cashier machine. Again, I panicked and said I'd wait until next week.

His parting words, beyond the Easter greeting:

"Don't call in sick on Tuesday."

I don't know why I'm stressing out over this cashier machine! He even said I'm familiar with the debit card thing, because I use it. I was all "..." because I don't! I haven't used my debit card in a LONG time! So I wonder how that'll all go down next week. I'll keep you informed.

My sister let me swipe her debit card at the movies this evening, for practice. "You're going to slow!" She criticized my skillz! It was sad. But it was still fun swiping the card! I think the machine dealings will be okay. I mean, I've wanted to use one for SO LONG! (See childhood activities.)

Here are FIVE RANDOM FACTS ABOUT MY LIFE, TODAY!

1. I actually laughed out loud in the movies, to the point where it physically hurt me.
2. I had to work in groups during my two classes this morning. One for dissecting a part of the textbook to read aloud to the class, and another for planning out an experiment we're conducting next week: Two people of the same sex holding hands, to SEE the reaction of the folks in my school.
3. I got to school before 9AM today. I went on the computer to print off my outline I finished. (Not well, but it was done!)
4. I got a slice of pizza after school, today. It was yummy.
5. I contemplated buying a book on Canadian facts for my American Twin. It's non-fiction, and statistics. I didn't know if she would like it.

Oh the wonders of my life.

I want an orange, nao.

I saw Shutter Island this evening. I feel I have to read the book to get the full experience. I wasn't surprised at the ending, but at the same time, I feel like I need more information on the events that happened.

True. I like to read up on stuff that I just read/saw. That's why I like wikipedia so much.

Yeah, when I finish a book, I will shimmy into the wiki, to read about it.

THAT ISN'T A LIE!

A habit of Possum you now know!

I organized the self-help section at coop today. Oh wow, there is a LOT of "lose weight, now!" books. I'm all "..." because I had to ORGANIZE all of them. There was like a million "Zone" books. It was kind of frustrating, because I was running out of room with all of them being there.

Tres lame, I say.

I want an orange. A nice good orange that I can eat eat eat.

Opposed to just looking at it, I mean.

I've been using the double question marks a lot lately. I don't know why. I really don't.

WHICH REMINDS ME! BEDA SOON! I'm pretty excited for that. I'll be posting on the mj ning and having a jolly good time. I'll still be posting on here, though. Just so you know.

Heyheyhey!

I went to school today. My parents were like "stay home!" but I was all "I have to go!" So my mom was all "she's so stubborn just like you," and my dad was all "like me? More like you". Oh how they speak about me like I'm not even there.

So that's fun stuff. Today in school, I learned about some organizations for business related stuff (WTO, etc) and took a note on it. Except I wasn't really paying attention because I was trying to finish my psychology homework from Monday. Damn you, talking in class! (It ALWAYS comes to get you!) So that was interesting enough; I finished.

In psychology, we finished our "introduction on Freud". Except I KNOW about him, so it's nothing new. I guess that's what you get when do a course again...

I did read Cat in the Hat, today! My group had to SEE who was the Id, Superego and Ego. That was fun stuff, believe me. We went around our table reading the book. I have to say, I kept on thinking in rhyme after reading the story.

MHM.

Hey! So in co-op, they cleared off a section of a shelf, and the staff was able to put their recommendations. AND I WAS ABLE TO DO THAT, TOO! The only problem was that there had to be multiple copies of the book we were putting out, and that made a slight problem for ME. So my choices were, as follows:

• Jurassic Park
• The Princess Diaries
• Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I have to say, Harry Potter was a cop out. I couldn't think of anything else! I mean, HARRY POTTER is awesome, but there is so many other books out there. I was having trouble deciding, I'm going to admit. The funny thing about the whole thing is that all the other books are more Lee Child (I thought of you, Leah) and fantasy-esque novels. And there are mine: PINK COVERS AND ALL!

It's all good.

Today my dad locked the keys in the car! And this guy comes up to us all like "for 2o dollars I'll get them out for you" and I was all "..." That's just essentially PAYING for a car theft to break into your car! He was kind of sketchy, too. We didn't take up his AWESOME offer, though. We phoned my uncle who had a key, so we were able to get in FOR FREE. Which is nice.

OF COURSE.

So I was watching part of a documentary on tv today. It was all Love, Hate and Propaganda. It was pretty interesting, but it was like ! I think the way France was taking over by propaganda from the Nazis was intensely uncool. I mean, the whole WW2 is uncool, but that in particular was LAME. Sheesh.

People. You have to hate them sometimes.

Just some babbling about contemplating the absence of school in my life for tomorrow!

PROs and CONs of staying home tomorrow:

PROs:
I'll be able to sleep.
I won't be in school.
I won't infect anyone else! (As I think of others!)
My supervisor said that I could stay home, if need be.

CONs
I'll be missing school/co-op.
I won't be in school. I don't want to miss anything in my classes.
I'm not even that sick. So shouldn't I keep my "sick days" for when I'm like, incapable of getting out of bed?

So I don't know. It's just a thing in my mind right now. I was allowed to stay home today (something I really wanted to do) but I felt bad about just missing school like that. So I was kind of dead on my feet today. I was tired, too! Like I didn't even go to bed until like... 4AM (Mugglecast, of course) and y'know, that's fun.

It was okay, though. I just had some medicine in me. Aka: Why I was so sluggish. You notice how medicine does that to you?

I'm just kind of trying to convince myself something, so pay no attention to the blog.

Yay! I'm sick when Meg Cabot is sick. I LOVE IT. We have something in common! Awesome, amirite?

Yeah.

Cosine is looking at me right now. Cosine being my cat, of course. Cosine and Willow are getting that "cat look" now. I mean, they obviously looked like cats before, but now they're looking like ACTUAL CATS and not kittens! You know what I mean? I don't know if I even explained that right, but it's cool. I especially notice it when I get home and I see them both sitting on my bed looking at me.

YES! When I got home today, as I was making my bed (I had to get them off my blanket) they stayed! They just sat on my pillow and waited for me to finish. Once I was done that, they went back to their spot. And when I woke up this evening, they were still there.

I slept because I was tired, by the way. When you're sick, you really just want to do that!

But I think I'll be better for tomorrow. True that!

WARS!

I went to bed with wet hair last night and woke up to curls. Oddly enough, only on my left side. I guess that's where I slept on for most of the night. So when I woke up this morning, I was like "!!" So I didn't even brush my hair, but went with the curls. In other words, my hair was messy.

Today was a rainy day. My sister also forbid me to buy ANY! more books. You can say my room is a bit of a "book central" if you were going to talk like that. I however, don't see her point. I'm making a collection! A collection of books that will follow me through to the end of my life. Do you collect anything that you anticipate to be with you until the end of your days? EXACTLY! It's a big thing.

I'm kind of tired right now. I just want tomorrow evening to come so I can relax. Relaxing sounds fantabulous, actually. I expect to watch a new movies, read some stuff from a book and SLEEP! Doesn't that sound divine? I think so!

I had a marker war today. As in, my arm is covered in marker marks. From red, yellow, green and even blue, my arm is like WAZAH! Funny enough, when I walked into co-op and my co-worker saw that, he knew right away: "Marker war?" I guess they're pretty common. Do you know what they are? IF NOT: It's when someone has a marker, and it's A THING to write on the other person. I'm pretty keen on writing on people's clothes and neck. I go for the kill. It's amazing. What isn't amazing? The marker is A SHARPIE! It just doesn't come off like, super easy. ! LEGASP!

-_- So I looked pretty professional via arms today at work.

Ha. Work. Yeah.
