A little more depth...

A day in the life of me, in POINT FORM.

- Woke up, and a few seconds later, the garbage bins outside the residence were being DISPOSED of. Man, I have to say, that loud noise is just DE.LIGHT.FUL. (Although it wasn't that bad. EXCEPT, if I were to be sleeping when that happened, I'd be awoken with FEAR IN MA HEART. Just kidding.

- Went on the computer, and checked some stuff. Attempted to get on the student portal, but my password was wrong. (I changed it just before I left, and I couldn't even remember what it was. Fail.

- Had a shower and got ready for the day. I was going to wear an Our Lady Peace shirt, but changed to my comic book shirt. It was cool, because when I did, as I was walking to find something, Eugene, one of the people in residence, was all, "nice shirt!" and it was cool. I was all suave and said, "nice black shirt!' as I was passing by. I AM COOL.

- Went on the computer and just puttered around until 11:45. Went outside with my bathroom mate, and waited while she smoked. Went inside the school... Where the above mentioned point happened.

- I got my student id and that was fun. (except not.)

- Went to go find the gym. Found it. Went somewhere else to wait until 1. Went back into the gym. Had orientation. Listened to people talk and just feel awkward. A lot of people are bubbly. And I felt like sitting by people and going, "hey!" but I was sitting with some people from residence, and it was kind of like ... To date, the only people I "REALLY" hung out with were... *counts* five people. Except only one of them am I REALLY like, HEY with. And not even my REAL hey, just... hi. I think, I need to meet people with the same interests!

- Got separated from the pack, and went to my individual program. Except not, because they shoved all us general people TOGETHER. Which was sad, because the person I was like, "what's your name?" to (oh, I know. GREAT conversation starter), she wasn't even in my SPECIFIC program. FAIL. (but she did sit next to me at the orientation bit for our programs. She went to school in Thunder Bay!) BUT ANYWAY. (I added the above in, which was a tangent of epic proportions): As we were walking to said classroom, some guy beside me walking was all, "The weather was so nice before..." and I was like, "it was hot in the college". OH YES, stellar conversation! I never talked to him again.

- After that, I waited around, because I was going to ask the MAIN LADY a question, due to not being able to get on the student portal due to my password fail, but the girl talking to her was having the same problem. So I did some eavesdropping, and as she was leaving, I was like, "are you going to the IT place?" and she was all, "yes" and I was like, "I'm going to come with you". OH, I am just SO STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. Anyway, we talked as we were walking there, and she lives in the city, etc. etc. It was nice because she is actually IN MY PROGRAM. So, it's nice to see that I'll know someone in at least one of my classes. Yeap!

- Went to the IT place, where I got my password changed. And asked about the wifi. Not that helpful, but whatcha gonna do? The nice thing was, the girl waited for me while I was doing mine! She didn't just RUN OFF just because she was done! So I liked that. Some people seem to do that, and it's ... worthy.

- After we were done there, we walked down stairs, where we separated, and I went to the bookstore. I was meeting Alexis, my bathroom mate there, so I was just like dodododo in line. She came. I went in. I stood in line (a long one, I might add. There was a girl at the door, bouncer style, letting people in and out. Haha.). As I stood in line, someone from residence was there, as he still needed to get some stuff. And we talked for a moment, before a lady came up and was all, "any assistance?" And because I ordered my stuff online, she let me stand in the middle of the store (not as lonely as it sounds), so I didn't have to stand in line. She just collected my stuff from the shelf by the cash machine, and gave it to me. Oh the coolness of ordering online. The only sucky thing about that was, I wasn't able to talk to the guy from residence for a longer while.

- After that, Alexis decided she'd check out where her classes were, so I went with her, while carrying my books, and my arms were like ! They were in a box, so it wasn't THAT BAD, but it wasn't heaven, either. Alexis held it for me for awhile, too. After that, we went back to residence (getting lost, I might add), and .. I waited for her to smoke, and the guy from above, Vincent (his name) invited us to the common room to watch him play VIDEO GAMES! (With other people. Yeah.) So we went there after dropping the books off at my room and such. That was cool. I met another girl, and we talked while the game was on. Alexis left. I stayed. And then a girl who I'm hanging out with, asked if I wanted to come to dinner. So I said yes. And so we went to my room to get my bag, and then to her room so she could change. And then we went to these guys rooms to get them. I met someone named MICHAEL! I was like, cool! Although it was KIND OF AWKWARD for a moment, because Alex (the girl who got me), went to another guys room (through the bathroom) and I was just standing in the FIRST GUYS ROOM. And then I guess his roommate came in, and I was like ... Because he didn't know me! AND I WAS JUST STANDING THERE. So I was like, "hm... I'm waiting for Alex" and so we introduced ourselves. AGAIN, hand shaking! Yeah. So he went to change for dinner, and Michael was drinking a juice box, and Alex was all, "waste of money!!" and I was all, "I like juice boxes! THEY'RE INTERESTING!" and yeah.. Lame moment there. But so we went downstairs, where Alex realized she didn't have her lighter, and I didn't have Alexis. So I had to go to her room to get her, and so we went back downstairs. And walked to the cafe. I got chicken fried rice and an egg roll. And juice. It was okay. Although I don't think I'd order it again, per say. Some dinner stuff happened, and then we left the cafe.

- Alex and Alexis went to smoke, and I just stood with them. And then after that, we went through the school back to residence, and they smoked again. We went inside, where we checked the common room, but didn't see Vincent or anyone we actually KNEW. SO we went to his room (plus I wanted to ask if Eugene was coming on the bus tour) and saw Jessica was there, so we hung out for awhile. And after that, there was the back outside thing, where I went back to my room. And then I went to Alexis' room, to wait for the bus tour. And so I did. And then we left for the bus tour.

- I was going to buy my ticket, but the girl was nice enough to give it to me for FREE. Yeah! So we went on the bus, and I (actually) talked. But only for awhile. I didn't actually talk ON the bus, because a LOT of people were on it. And they weren't of the quiet variety (for the most part). But whenever we stopped, I did talk to the people around me. Yeah. I'm getting a bit better! Cheers for me.

- We stopped at a water thing. I asked a girl about what her mom was talking about the day before, and then went back on the bus. We went to a mall, where Alex, Alexis and I went to Tim Hortons in the food court. I got an iced cap. It was good. At the third (and last) stop, we went to the marina. I talked to Eugene about Winnipeg, and it was nice.

- We got back on the bus, and I was able to observe college LIFE. I also saw Algoma, my other option, and... Wow. NICE CAMPUS. Any regrets for choosing college instead? I don't know yet. We will see tomorrow.

- After that, we came back to the college, where I went inside, and moved my room around with my roommate. Now instead of one big OPEN space, we have separate little areas. It's pretty cool. I like it. It took awhile to actually get done, because we couldn't actually figure out how to do it. BUT we did it. And it worked out nice!

- And we talked. We went over the roommate contract, and did all that stuff. We discussed things, and it was nice. While I don't think Megan and I will be awesome friends, I think we'll be okay roommates. And that's nice. It works for me. I mean, I don't want to get sick of her or anything. And that could happen, if we were to hang out a lot or something. She's nice, though.

- I printed off my time table. Tomorrow I have three classes. Between my second and third one, I can come back here and eat lunch, and drop off my textbooks and binders. BOOYEAH.

- I had my shower. And now here I am, typing up my blog. I think I'll watch a video or two, and go to sleep.

My day.

I've got a headache.

Today, I...

• Had breakfast at a chinese food restaurant. French toast. I'm starting to like them... With lots of syrup.
• Bought a map of the world, cutting board and some pens with sticky notes on them for studying. (I was going to buy this collection of FOUR cereal bowls, but my mom said no! DISAPPOINTING!!)
• Bought a few books, INCLUDING a Harry Potter pop up book!
• I also bought a No Doubt CD.
• I sat outside the library and used their wifi for an hour. (I showed my mom some videos by the vlogbrothers: SHE LAUGHED a LOT when John was attempting to waxing his chin. (In a OUCH! kind of way.)
• I went to the mall and bought some bras. All the same kind, but in different colours, because I am unoriginal and lazy
• I had supper. It was good.
• I took a REALLY long nap. As I went to bed at like 4AM last night: I finished watching Veronica Mars (THE FIRST TIME EVER I SAW THE LAST EPISODE) and watched two episodes of The OC.
• I made some tea. And I had a smoothie my brother made me.
• I packed the majority of my clothes.
• I am on the computer.

Good night!

A week! And a day?

I've been mulling over an idea for well... the last minute, and I'm thinking of GOING FOR IT. I'll see to it that more details will be put up shortly. It will be good. Well, I don't know about good, but it'll be interesting... Well, again, interesting is subjective, but it will just be something not like this.

INTRIGUING, HUH?

I don't know. Really, I don't.

Today I watched Psych with my sister (her first time! She liked it). I also watched some Nanny McPhee (where THREE people (i.e. my siblings and I) told her that a second one was out). Good times, I tell you! GOOD TIMES. I also made pizza for supper (cheese with green peppers), and had some marshmallows. YUMMY.

Oh, and my sister started cleaning up our room. She was trying to get me to pack up my clothes, but I told her I still have a week.

A WEEK.

THAT'S NOT A LONG TIME! So... I guess the countdown begins. Dun. Dun. Dun.

I don't know. Sheesh. Oh well...

*ignores biggest concern*

- Possum

I wasn't able to sleep in today. I woke up this morning to a PHONE CALL! So I jumped out of bed, and answered it. It was sad, really... but expected. I also work tomorrow. LE SIGH. LE SIGH.

At least I'll be able to... give my mom my first cheque!

YEAH.

Although I think she won't take the WHOLE THING. I mean, I worked for whatever-it-will-be-amount! Truth.

In other news, my brother has more of a social life than ME! And my mom was all, "you need to find friends that AREN'T on the internet!" but I just glazed over, as that concept is foreign to me. Ha, just kidding! So I was all, "mom! I'm hanging out with Elaneah soon enough!" So yeah! And I AM. We are going to the movies or something soon... Or maybe even BOWLING. #plans

But yes. Friendships from high school are fading away! FADING AWAY, I SAY! And I'm not that sad about it. I mean, it's kind of sad, but it's not like it was the BEST CIRCLE OF FRIENDS, EVER. You know? Yeah.

As I've said before, I need to find the niche! (I hope college or something HELPS with that.)

Oooh! I walked by a library today, and I saw an ad for a book sale! And I was all, "!! JUST LIKE LEAH!!" Hahaha. It's TRUE, that was my first thought. Sheesh. I've been conditioned to think of things in terms of my American twin! But I don't really mind it, per say! PER SAY OR NOT, WHOO HOO.

Yeah. I haven't seen Willow in a few days. She's outside, killing things. And I'm all, 'outside cat now?' And it's not particularly BAD, as Cosine is roaming the house safe! AND I didn't have to get rid of ANY OF THEM! *knocks on wood* I love ma cats.

I don't know.

So yeah! Enough.

My day yesterday

I didn't blog yesterday, because I was sleeping.

I was up until 5:30 in the morning working on the presentation from yesterdays blog. And I finished! I know I said I was going to do it at SCHOOL the next morning, but I REALLY needed it to be finished. So I was a spy, working extra hours! Yes.

And after my mom kind of shuffled me into the bathroom for shower time after I woke up, I was READY TO GO! I even had some extra time to eat toast with nutella, and have an interesting enough day.

My dad took me to Tim Horton's to buy some timbits, and... They didn't have much of a selection before 9AM. But that's okay, because it was just for classmates I'm not even friends with. But the girl who sits in front of me, who I talk to on a semi-regular basis now, I gave her three. As I am nice like that.

I also gave my second period class the leftovers, because I AM nice! And everyone was all, "thank you". Etc. etc. It felt good! So yes. Anyway, my presentation: It was good! I didn't talk as much about my slides as I anticipated I would, but my slides were interesting/informative enough that I didn't really have to.

And after seven hours of working on that powerpoint, I would hope so.

In second period, I had to present my DREAM school, and even THAT was okay. There wasn't that much people at school, due to the grad ceremony being that night, so ... okay. My teacher brought in pop for us, so that was all SIP! throughout the period. Yeah!

At co-op, I was able to get a few books for free, because there was a sale, and they were all, "just take some!" So that was nice. As one of my co-workers said, "it's your going away gift". And that's okay! I still have two days left... But that's okay.

Ooh, homework. I have some CREATIVE assignments to do. I think I'm going to do one of them on a bulletin board. I think it could look cool. Yeah! I just have to set some time and stuff down on doing it. And it WON'T be at night, as it's actually CREATIVE! I'll work on it on Monday and Tuesday.

Yeah!

I don't know what else to say...

I'll blog again later.. Maybe!

I creeped out my brother.

Hey hey hey hey! (I just said that aloud a few times, and weird!)

I have decided to learn how to play Blink by Chameleon Circuit on the guitar. While there will be no singing involved--that's left for my hammock fun time--I am sure it will be FUNTASTIC! Yeah! I'm excited, at least. So that's all that matters.

Sure.

Today I woke up, and realized that I was the only one home! But to some inspection that happened, I realized my brother was home. Sleeping. So in my act of Edward Cullen-ism, I went into his room. Yes, I sat by his head, watching him! I guess he must've sensed me near him, because he opened his eyes and JERKED BACK.

I SCARED HIM!

Which lets face it; Normal reaction to being creeped out! I guess Bella really ISN'T normal! Although we already know that... *rolls eyes*

Oh how I've been writing my actions lately. *types* Ooh, spooky dooky!

So I'm just on DFTBA Records website adding things to a cart I will NEVER BUY! It's like window shopping for the digital age! Obviously. Haha. I might get my mom to PURCHASE something for me, though. Yayay! That should be fun. Yeas. =)

Today I had a few naps, and did some other random stuff. Nothing major. I am just glad it's Saturday.

?? no life in this post

Today I had an in class co-op. It was nice. I got to leave early for a meeting. It was also nice.ish. I bought some stuff for my best friend's cat, and something for my best friend.

I had a test today. It was a-okay. I hope I did okay, at least. I wrote the long answer kind of weird. But whatcha gonna do when you are possum?


ETC.

I looked through the boxes of books in my room. I have a lot of good books! Some I didn't even know I had. I must read them. I also found a copy of a series I bought just recently. I was like "I already HAVE THIS?!" and kind of slapped myself on the head. Sigh.

I did find my old copies of The Last Vampire by Christopher Pike though. It made me feel proud to find them, all well read like that. ^__^

I was creeping on the facebook group for the residence hall next year. ohboy. I came across someone who LIKED harry potter and I had to resist the urge to scare them. As in, being too creepy.

ETC!

I listened to a bit of mugglecast. nothing to really scream about though. it did make me laugh. i gotta love that micah t. <3

Yes, i was a fangirl with that heart.

FORSHAME!

The time in my head at school (with drawing!)

*I wrote this throughout the day!*

Hey! POSSUM.

Possum likes Leah!

Updates throughout the day!

I bombed a test I took last week. Seriously. I got 69%! That's bad! That's almost a fail! I blame it on the long/short answers... As there was a math question. And math = fail.

When I get a test, I usually read through it first. Perhaps one of the reasons why I sucked on this test was because I didn't do my usual read through. !!!! Don't change up your usual routines!

Someone who looks through my binder would notice that...

1) I'm a messy person--I am not organized. Sure, I *was*, but as the semester went on, I just shoved things in the front.

2) I am obsessed with a girl named Leah. As there are PAGES with her name on it... Yes.

3) I like to write DFTBA a lot. Random person who is going through my binder wonders what it stands for.

4) I like cats and dogs. As I have a puppy and kitten calender. That has random things in the boxes provided.

5) My grade slips for business are really high, but slowly goes down throughout the semester. Senioritis? YES!

6) "Does this person like Algonquin College? There's a college booklet for that school there.!"
(Note: I wasn't even planning to go there; I like useless stuff for projects.)

I hate when teachers say "generally the class did well". THEREFORE, I do not fit into that! Sheesh.

HA! My teacher just said: "I guess I'm a social loser because I sit up here in my classroom eating my lunch like a little troll." -- I couldn't help it, I burst out laughing.

My right shoulder hurts! Not even my shoulder, but below it. OUCH!

I couldn't fall asleep last night. My legs started to itch, and so I scratched it. But it didn't help! So I got up, turned on my light, and went searching for the lotion I knew was hiding somewhere. And I found it! So I slathered it on my legs and felt some relief! But it wasn't REALLY an instant relief, either.

TRUTH!

What's with the mega boom of saying TRUTH, TRUE and whatnot lately? I "blame" the influence of my BEDA buddies! True!

Should an opposite thing start? LIE!! XD

I know it's the ultimate form form of flattery, but I hate when people copy me! I'm not saying that I have claim on some words, but when you start saying "mon frere", "tres" and "XD" because I do, it's ANNOYING!

^^ I had someone in my head when I wrote that. It wasn't like me hating on you!

What do you want for your birthday, Leah?

WHOAH. The teacher is taking up a question that I did on the test that I failed!! The math one. I avoid eye contact and work on this random thing...

HAH! HE FAILED THE ANSWER, HIMSELF. So he's recollecting the test for those who did it!

I AM POSSUM! SEE ME HANG UPSIDE DOWN!

YEAH!

Because I had no co-op today, I was bored at lunch. As the library was closed, I had to hang out in my second period class getting caught up on work.

-

We're watching this video from the early '90s and this guy's SUPPOSED to be in high school is like 40! And he has a mullet.

My teacher went: "Get over the hair! You're going to look back at your hair in 10 years from now and cringe."

I can't stop giggling.
"Why do the lights have to go off?"
"Because some dirty stuff is about to happen."



^^ That's some ACTUAL drawings and stuff from the rest of my note! TRUTH! SEE ABOVE!

Anyway, that concludes the time in my brain at school!

My day, yet again... Original ? NO!

Hello!

Today I was home alone, yet again, so I decided to do some STUFF! This morning, it was nice out, so I decided to SPEND THE MORNING OUTSIDE. So of course, I grab a blanket and pillow, and settle down on the hammock.

With the blanket covering me.

HEY! I don't WANT to get skin cancer or anything!

So that was nice. I was listening to DFTBA Records Radio Hour and had some good laughs. Although Todd Williams can be a JERK sometimes. Just sayin'.

Anyway, after that, I decided to search through some tapes to find something to listen to. I DID. I listened to The Doors, WHAM!, Madonna and Alanis Morissette! Oh and a bit of The Spice Girls. Although it didn't have the BEST music by them, so I switched it to The Doors rather quickly. I was also going to start listening to Harry Potter, but I decided against it. Mostly because it would require FULL ATTENTION, and I wasn't really looking to do that.

So I didn't!

And during that time (aka: before going outside) I watched an episode of How I Met Your Mother, and went on the computer. ^__^

So after I came inside, I decided to work on my room! At first I was cleaning it, but I got the brilliant idea to PUT A COMPUTER IN THERE! So shoving things on my bed and away from the area where I was putting the computer, AWAY I WENT.

It worked! I talked on the computer for awhile with my friend, and saved some stuff to email. But when I decided to move my bed around, it was a good time for the computer to GO. So it did. And this is where my room starts getting a MAKEOVER! The bed was moved, and I started to pick stuff off the floor. I came across this IMPORTANT PAPER FOR SCHOOL NEXT YEAR, so I decided to go on the computer to check it out.

There, my American Twin was online! So I started to chat with her, and do my laundry. It was fun stuff!

And that's what I did.

Oh and I moved my bookshelf, which broke, and I don't know what to do about that. I just shoved it against the wall, so it doesn't BREAK ANYMORE!

And my family is home!
