Work work work work! (and it's not even April!)

I'm stressing out over a ROUGH OUTLINE for an essay I have to write. Not a draft, but an outline.

So lame. So I'm going to write this quick, and put in 10 minutes for each point. I think that'll be enough. I mean, it's not this is my GOOD copy or anything.

Yeah. So today it was WARM out! Like 20'C nice! It was pretty amazing, believe me. There was still a breeze, so that made it nice. But when there wasn't any air coming at'cha, it was like "SUMMER IS HERE?!" It sucks because I think this weekend it's supposed to be really sucky, weather wise.

REAL WISE, it'll be cool because I'll be working on a script and off from school! =D I mean, I AM off from school on the weekend, but on Friday and Monday, no school! I never even knew Monday was an odd day to have off, but hey, I've got it off. It's cool. xD

Plus the following Thursday, I don't have any morning classes because of the good ol' literacy testing for grade ten students. Yay! That's nice, I think. Yeah.

AND ON THAT FOLLOWING MONDAY*, I've got a pizza party for my debate team! I even saw my teacher-supervisor on the CITY BUS today. Man, that was random. I was all "hey!" and she was all "hello" in her french accent. It was pretty exciting. Ha. So we discussed my plans for next year across from each other. Oh yeah, I was the annoying person on the bus who talked to someone else that wasn't even located close.

It works.

Here's a tweet that didn't make it to my twitter:

I made the detrimental decision to turn on my ipod when I got to my room last night.

Instead of sleeping, I listened to a MuggleCast podcast. Curses! Why can't I just have the willpower to GO TO SLEEP? Even now, I don't have the willpower to get to work. I just want to GET IT DONE, so I can hand it in tomorrow.

Gah-law. If I'm not done by 10PM, I am going to SHANK MYSELF.

Shank being described as "hit[ting] someone with a homemade knife" (Urbandictionary.com).

Does that sound pleasant? No. So I better get'erdone.

Yes!

* Date pending. One of my team members came up to me today before I left school to ask "when aren't you busy?" so yeap!

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.

Many things are lame in a cool cool world

Today, I started to laugh. Not because of something amusing that was happening in person, but because of the comments I got from yesterdays blog, in relation to who I like. I applaud both of you. One for being right, and the the other for being completely off base. It still made me laugh though. I ran to my sister when I got home to tell her both of the suggestions. It was just that funny.

So yesh!

I live in my life, fangirlin' it up. For both podcast personalities, AND prime minsters of my country.

Ah!

I can't see this happening. I know it was pretty popular when Trudeau was in office, but for Harper?

No.

I just finished watching Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I fell asleep halfway through (...) so I missed ALL the parts with Lavender and Ron. Curses! That always seems to happen. It's lame. I just CAN'T keep my eyes open when I watch a movie. It's all "I lull you to sleep, Possum" and it's kind of lame. Especially when I'm actually trying to watch something. This only happens when I'm home though: In the theater, I will WATCH!

I cut my finger doing dishes today. I was just putting my hand in for the VERY FIRST TIME (that wash) and BAM! I felt something stab my finger. So now I've got some bandages on, and it's kind of hurting still. That's so lame! There I was, trying to do a good deed, and BAM! CUTS ALL AROUND! (Except not all around.)

I phoned my dad asking to see if I could still do the dishes (... I was trying to get out of it) but I was told to continue forth. "When you put a bandaid on it, does it bleed through?" "I don't THINK so." "You're good to go." LAME! I'd MUCH rather be told to stop, or else I'll die.

Unless it's from something fun!

Yeah.

I had a retest on the brain today. I saw retest because I already took the first one, and wanted to see if I could do better. I couldn't. As much as the handy hints of Leah came into play (THANKS!) it was just TOO MUCH FOR MY BRAIN! Apparently my hippocampus can't retain information past a certain date. I took the test, and it WENT OUT THE DOOR! So that was lame. I was the only one who did the retest, too. Ha, she said the people who SHOULD'VE been there didn't even show up.

Isn't that how it is?

I also realized I've come to the point that when I get a 9/10 on an assignment, I'm disappointed. Seriously. I was all "!" and the girl sitting next to me was like "you're kidding". It's just disappointing when you don't get a 100% on something you thought you were going to get it on. You know?

I did get 100% on that brain assignment I've been working on for the past week. The one I slacked on last Monday? Yes! My teacher made a comment on the side: "You have a very interesting way of putting things. It's entertaining." It made me smile, because the way I talk/write, I do that in WORK, too! It kicks me in the ass during formal times, but whatever. As you could tell from this baby of work. ^_^

The HP movie is starting. "Who's Harry Potter?" "Uh, no one. A bit of a tosser, really." Haha, oh the conversation between Harry and the waitress! xD

I shall continue to sip my apple juice while contemplating my ability to read some books.

Guess... Take a guess!

I can't remember parts of the brain. It just kind of goes over my head, and it's starting to get a little bit annoying. The only part I truly feel comfortable with is the amygdala. Seriously.

Grr!

There you go. That's exciting? I believe so! It's so very filled with YA, the only thing I can do is kind of smile. TRUE! Because YA is the SHIZ! THE SHIZ, I DECLARE!

I'm going to go to my school library tomorrow and take out a few books. I don't know what, but since I can't really go to my public library at the moment, why not? Exactly. I don't even know if that sentence makes sense, by the way. That's true.

So I got a crush! A few, actually. If you're able to guess WHO, I'll be like, "you're right!!"

Library fines, oh my.

Today is when I turn off my lights and sit in the dark for an hour at 8:30 to 9:30. Why you may ask? While I do have a liking for the dark when I'm attempting to sleep or get away from BRIGHT THINGS THAT MAKE MY HEAD POUND, today is the day of Earth Hour!

It's exciting.

So I've got my candles already set and ready to go. It's also kind of rainy and just 'bleh' outside, so I assume I would need candles anyway. Candles make a relaxed atmosphere, which rain kind of washes away.

Atmosphere being described as "a place is the general impression that you get of it". And if it's relaxing, it'd be an impression of RELAXATION! I don't know I went that far with that particular thought.

I woke up rather late today. I was shocked when I turned my head to my alarm clock thing: 2:33PM! What?! How could I sleep THAT late? I was surprised myself. All I did last night was read articles on Wikipedia and Encyclopedia Dramatica (which took an hour + out of my life), but still. You'd think I wouldn't waste my day away. >.>

I started to work on my essay, with preparations of my arguments like I would preparing for a debate. I don't know why I did this, but I got a lot more work done that I normally would. (I.E: I got my general points made up.) I got distracted by my library card, though. My fines at the moment are $30 dollars. That's ridiculous. Apparently I don't have the ability to return things on time. But I already knew that; common knowledge about Possum is well known to everyone (in my life).

I have to renew my library card. But because I don't even LIVE in the city where I go to school and BUY stuff, I have to PAY a FEE to USE the LIBRARY. That's ridiculous! Well, because I'm eighteen, you're allowed to get a card for free, but before I go about doing that, I have to pay my fines. I hate that. It's too much work. But I mean, it's my fault for not even returning the books on time, so I understand.

I just hate when fines accumulate. It's annoying.

Anyway, one of the features they have on the MY LIBRARY CARD section or whatever, is that you're allowed to see a limited reading history you have. Aka: What books you took out of the library. Looking over mine, I've got a LOT of Meg Cabot books. It's exciting, believe me. I've also got Sarah Dessen, Maureen Johnson, and randomly enough, John Green. I don't even remember reading a John Green novel before BEDA, but apparently I read An Abundance of Katherines. Or at least took it out of the library. Odd! Looking over the first few pages of my copy now, it's familiar. I just remember that I stopped reading it after the first chapter. Ooh, bad. I wonder why, though.

Probably because I had 50 other books to read! (Yes, in my one time take out of 50 books, there is a RECORD of those 50 books.) I was going to show you the list, but I don't know. If you're curious enough, just ask. (I know you probably will, Leah.) So yeah. Libraries are amazing, and I just wish I am able to go to them more often without a worry of money.

Which is ironic, because of the BEST THINGS about libraries is they're normally free.

Consequences of being a procrastinator of returning things, and living outside of city limits.

Curses.

Definitely wouldn't call this a blog entry! RAMBLINGS!

Hello folks.

Today is Friday. Just another one of those TGIF moments, I guess.

I stayed home from school today. I was tired, so when my mom asked if I was going, I said NO! So I went back to bed. It was fun.

Yeah.

True true.

I'm watching Matilda right now. My brother, sister and I were watching Dennis the Menace earlier. The antagonist of the story is TRES CREEPY! Without a doubt in my mind, it was all EW when he came on the screen. An amusing story, though. I laughed.

My sister mentioned they should make a Family Circus movie. I was like "no!" as that would make no sense, seriously. Do you read Family Circus? The circle cartoon?

Yeah.

I don't know.

Hm... I've got a hat on right now. YEAH! It's WHITE! And knitted. True true.

Oh well.

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.
