My attempt to stay awake.

Okay so I'm in class, oyyy the teacher is saying something about computers... which yeah makes sense because this is a computer class. Dude's university is not really as exciting as I thought. Already I'm sooo tired! This is like when I was in my rush for IB Gah!!!! Half of my class is falling asleep. I'm sure some of them already are asleep. Let's see if I can find anyone... Darn, nope cuz I'm in a pretty bad angle. Yeah I know I shouldn't be blogging but I can't help it. If I don't my mind will wander to thoughts that aren't so happy right now.
Gosh I really want to go back to the times when things were much simpler. Life in high school was deffinitely better.
Wow, my prof is really slow through the slides. He JUST got to the second point on his slide. I still have to suffer through this for another hour! Alright I'm going to find something else to entertain me. Later peeps! lol

CNE

Woot really short post.
The only updates I have for you are
1. I pierced my cartilage! owwie
2. I start my other job at the CNE tomorrow. I will be a ticket seller. Exciting stuff woot!
Yepp that's all folks! later.

LEGAL AT LAST!!!

Okay so it was the day I finally turned into an adult in the eyes of this country. I'm officially legal now. EIGHTEEN! Eighteen years of breathing and watching the sun rise and moon rise. Eighteen years of doing who the hell knows what and now that I've been 18 for a day, all I can say is I'm pooped. Well that also may be because I'm still up at 1:30 in the morning.
I'm happy to say though that I've accomplished a few goals I set for myself before and when I turned 18. Firstly I donated blood before I turned 18 and I'm quite proud of that. Secondly I have now bought a scratch card by myself because I'm of age.
But that is all I shall post for now because I have a big day up ahead for me at my university! woot! G'nite all!

Got the Other Job as Well!

Okay well I knew I got the other job for over a week. This post is just a holy-cow-I-managed-to-survive kind of post.
Well if you didn't already know I applied to the evil corporation that is Mc Donald's. This I have to say might be my worst idea yet. I have officially finished my first week of training. It was 5 days of torture. At least my shifts didn't start too early. I work in the back/ kitchen area making the heart-attack burgers that you've all come to love. Yes, sometimes I'm ashamed that I'm adding to the obesity of the country for a few measly bucks but hey! a girls got to make money somehow!
Any who oh god was it a pain or what! I got trained by this old lady who would complain about everything! She complained about the manager saying she complained too much, which she did. Being the quick learner that I am I learned how to make all the burgers within the first day, or at least all the frequently ordered ones. The second day the old witch put me on the grill. Now if you have ever worked at a Mc Dee's you'd know what I'm talking about. It was this clunky machine with two presses. You'd place the meat on the flat HOT surface and then press the two buttons for the press to come down. I wasn't very good at this because well IT WAS MY FIRST TIME! Gah the old bat kept me on grill the entire day. The thing that I hate the most is that she knew I couldn't do it and so she kept making me do it. Okay so maybe it was something along the lines of tough love but still. Ugh soooo annoying! When the press comes up the meat has been cooked and so all the grease that was in the pattie is splattering everywhere and you have to season the meat by sticking you hand right above the patties, careful not to touch the press that is looming right above at an angle and "hammer shot" the seasoning on.
Oh the other thing that bothers me is the old bat won't ever clean the damn grill anymore! Oyy, she always makes me do it and then complains that I didn't do it well enough. Thank gosh I'm not working with her next week. but I probably will be at the end of August when I start at the CNE. BLAH!!!
Anywho's that enough Mc Dee's rant for today. Catch you all soon!

I Got The Job!

Okay people's this is going to be a short one. So I applied to the CNE for the position of ticket seller and I got it! woot! The only things left for me to do is get a criminal background check, because apparently Ontario has the highest amount of identity theft. Eeek! Anywho and after the background check I have to attend orientation. That's about it.
I've also applied to Mc. Donald's and I have no clue what is happening with that because one person is saying that I'm going to be hired and the other says that I've ALREADY been hired. Sooooo confusing. Anyways hopefully it works out. If not then the Ex if good enough for me. =)

Turmoils of the Heart

Okay so it's been a while since I've dated anyone, 8 months to be exact and so now all of the sudden I have news that a bunch of guys like me. I know, I know big whoop. To all those who aren't into rants about love and feelings well then this is my WARNING to you to stop reading. I mean it STOP NOW before it's too late.
Alright then, well since you've continued to read on I'm going to believe that you are at least slightly interested in my predicament. Well today I had to tell one of the guys that liked me (we`ll call him guy 1) that I didn't feel the same way. This issue came about when my friend S decided that it would be a brilliant plan for me to bring him to the baseball game last Thursday. Well, what I'd like to add is that I've turned this guy down oh so many times before and had managed to escape when S decides to re-open this already shut door. Oyy anyways that was horrible to do because I feel bad. I'm not the kind of person who likes to ACTUALLY hurt people, especially their feelings. *sigh* I left his work with a guilty conscience. BTW yeah we had planned to hang out during his lunch break because A. I have super strict parents who don`t let me go out at night, especially with boys, and B. this gave me a specific time frame to work with so I could escape (I know I sound so mean! ugh!).
So now here is part two. Guy 2, well I like guy 2, a significant amount. The only issue is that he does stuff that I`m not supportive of. Well I don`t like smoking but I can`t really use that as a point of comparison because guy 1 and 2 both smoke. Guy 2 though also does weed often. These past 2 days when that he`s been talking to me he hasn`t lit up but still it`s something that he`s going to end up doing again. But see Guy 2 makes me really happy. He makes me feel good about myself and I`m just generally a more happy person. Guy 1 on the other hand doesn`t make me happy but is more sullen and mature. The one thing that guy 1 did that made me turn him down is the fact that he doesn`t understand how my family works. Like I`ve previously mentioned I`m an only child and so my parents are very protective of me, not to mention I`m a female.
Oh well I`m falling for guy 2 and hopefully things go well. I really miss my girl S she`s gone for 6 weeks and yeah I miss talking to her about these problems. I hope she gets back soon. Anywho that`s it for me. Night night bloggers!

The Job Hunt

So with Canada's booming economy and the exportation of jobs to third world countries because they have a cheaper labour market, this year's job hunt has become extremely difficult. Today my friends and I went downtown to the CNE in hopes to find a job. Today was their job fair and although that sounds like it would have been located in a major hall with posters explaining job positions and such, we sadly came to realize that it was nothing of the sort. In fact the "job fair" (if one can call it such) was located in a dingy room thing where the line up twisted and turned and stretched far outside the actual building itself. Ugh it was insane. I think my friends and I waited around one and a half hours to FINALLY get to the desk and that only gets me an group interview and my resume handed in. Honestly that kind of blows.
Now don't get me wrong, it's not like the CNE is the only place that I've applied to that has given me this impression. I've applied to pretty much all the stored in the major mall close to my house and well no one has called me back yet. I've also applied to a Mc Donald's, a factory line... pretty much anywhere I could have I've applied and yet not one phone call back for an interview. It can get quite frustrating sometimes. And I'm not alone in this issue my guy friend D is having the same problems as well.

So to end off my blog today I will quote my ingeneous friend S... *said in high pitch, enthusiastic child voice* "Snakes are people too!"

A Time for Change... in the Sanctuary

So here are the photos I promised of prom. Yes I realize that there are no one's actual face is showing but that's for confidentiality and privacy reasons.
The pictures go as follows:

1. The limo we took to prom with it's pretty lights.
2. The place we had our prom.
3. The place we ate.
4. The prom king and queen's dance

In other news, the photoshop class I ended up taking was pointless because it was for old people who take way to long to learn a concept. Thus the "teacher", if one can even call him that (no offence intended), said that he refuses to teach me because it would just be a waste of my time and money. Saturday's are free again!

This weekend my father and I have begun the incredible task of re-doing my room like I wanted to a while ago. I've planned this entire thing for about 3 + months now. I've drawn the sketches and designed my new bed and everything! I say re-doing instead of renovating or redecorating because I'm not going to be breaking down any wallls, but it's not as simple as just moving a couple of things around either. We are pretty much building my bed from scratch. We will be changing the entire layout of the room. And a lot of things are being thrown out. I'm currently very sore from all the work I've done. I've had to sand 9 pieces of wood (various lengths) and then paint them. Ugh painful.

Speaking of painful. I've been following the UEFA 2008 Euro cup very closely and today's game hurt me to watch. OMG how did the Netherlands lose to Russia. Obviously they were drugged or something! Comon this is the team that beat the two final teams of the World cup by 3 points each! Oyy, well at least I know that my friend "I" will be celebrating his teams win and will be telling people about how awesome Russia is. Tomorrow's game should be interesting, Italy versus Spain.

Anywho tune in next time for more of my rantings. Toodles for now!

Recap of The Events

So I'm currently talking to my friend right now who is wandering aimlessly outside trying to get home. She's being so silly, something about rubber boots for splashing but right now she is splashing in the puddles with her leather shoes.... Genius I know!
There was a horrible thunderstorm outside about an hour ago, thunder and lightning and lights flickering. It was like something out of a horrible weather movie. It's been like that for a couple of nights now. I don't really know what to say other than ugh it sucks.
Well prom is now officially over and done with. I am quite happy with it. It wasn't as amazing as movies and stories have made it out to be but it was still quite fun. I will post some photos up of the event some other day. Oh yeah, I eventually decided to go in the green dress.
Since prom is now done with I have also cut my hair to donate it to cancer. I kind of feel weird with my short hair. I think I look better with long hair so this will be one of the only times I'll have short hair again. Well at least until I'm really old and don't care and have kids and are married. Lol, But that's still some time away.
Lately I've been wanting to get a dog. A schnauzer to be exact (the ones that look like old men). I have mostly everything thought out, the name will be Scruffy, I want it to be a boy but a girl seems like a better choice as long as she is spayed/nutered. I want it to be slightly older than a puppy so around 12 weeks old so that all the training and necessary shots will have been dealt with. BUT the only thing stopping me is that my parents are absolutely against the idea of getting any pets that are not fish. It's because of the experience with dogs and cats when they were back in Vietnam, but still it's completely different. Also they don't want to have to deal with all the fur shedding and the walks and etc. that goes along with getting a pet.
I will get myself a doggie when I move out. I just don't know when that will be. It could take a while... 2-3 years if I'm lucky, 5-7 if I'm not.
Well I need to get some rest because I'm attending a photoshop class tomorrow with my mother. Hehehe I will be able to manipulate photos. This should be entertaining.
G'nite fellow bloggers!

A Breath of Fresh Air

So it's been a while since I last posted but you all knew that I had my IB exams and so a girls got to focus. Well the good news is it's all over and done with! woot! No more IB no more school (for now)! Speaking of school.. I have officially decided to go to Ryerson University. Why you may ask? Well my offer from UofT was not what I had expected... They sent me to a program all the way over in Scarborough (it took me 1 and 1/2 hours to get up there) for a program that I didn't even really want (psychology). They also gave me another offer on the other side of town in Missisauga for Studies in Chemical and Physical Sciences.... well that wasn't going to float my boat and so I chose to go to Ryerson, the one school which actually gave me what I wanted (Medical Physics). York ended up giving me some program called Health Management... So that was also a "No".
The rest of my pals (who are currently on vacation in Cuba without me, I know!) well they're all going to different universities. That's kind of depressing me because these are people that I have come to know really well over the course of my high school life! Seriously we did pretty much everything together, they were there for me through all my hardships and now we're all heading off on our separate paths, which who knows when they'll cross again! S is going to York for the Schulich program (not too far but she's moving houses so it'll be difficult to see each other), P is going to McMaster for environmental sciences, D is going to U of Ottawa for Biology, and T is going to Waterloo for an engineering program. I kind of wish I could move out of the house next year like they all are but I can't afford to. I need to find a job and start making some money!
Which brings me to my job search... God is it ever hard to find a job! Well I have mass distributed my resume throughout the mall and I hope that someone, ANYONE will call me back and offer me a job. Yeah it's most likely due to the fact that I don't have prior experience in the retail business but if I don't ever get a job how will I gain said experience? Meanwhile everything is going up in cost. Apparently gas prices have hit an all time high at 128.5 a Lt. That just sucks! Luckily I don't drive yet.
That also means I have to rely on my parents to drive me places, like to pick up my prom dresses on Saturday. Yup they finally arrived last week on Thursday and I went for my fitting on Saturday. They will be ready this Saturday for me to pick up! When the girls get back from Cuba I will finally have a dress to show them for prom (which is exactly one week from today!). Super excited for it. From what I can tell we're having ours really late. Everyone else I know has had their prom already or will be having it this week some time. Doesn't matter though. It will still be awesome.
Well just one more thing to say before I leave. Today is D's birthday and he is turning eighteen. Yup we're all getting old. Anywho this tid bit is for you, so when you finally find out my blog you will discover that I in fact did mention your birthday! Feel special... because I swear it won't last too long. Yeah I do abuse him a little much... Hope you like the present I'm MAKING, that's right I'm making it... ugh so much effort, so much caring... can't breathe!

They're Getting Closer!!!

Oh My Gosh! So it's May 1st. MAY FIRST!!!! I'm going to die. The IB exams are next week. I have exactly 5 days to learn everything I need for the history exam because you can't study for an english commentary! In the mean time I also have to manage to learn and or know everything else from every other subject I am taking. Also my house is being over-run by ants and so I have to sleep on my stinkin' loft bed which I do like but am not use to because I've been sleeping on the floor for the past 3 years or so.
GAH the stress is getting to me. I have no idea how I'm going to handle this. No idea whatsoever. Although I think the best thing for me to do currently is to go to bed. I most likely won't. I'll prolly turn on my laptop and play with it for a while since it has been almost a day and a half since I've played with it.
I know! How do I manage to keep my hands away? Don't ask me I haven't an idea myself. Anyways I'll blog more later. Right now, my laptop is calling out to me. Blog you soon my fellow people in blogger land.

My love of electronics!!!

Yay laptop! Okay so the initial plan to write out my post is being scraped because it takes to much effort right now. Anyways so yup I have a brand new laptop. It's a tablet which basically means I can write on the screen. It's a lot of fun. I'm hoping I will be able to put it to good use next year when I go to univeristy. Well that's pretty much going to be my entire post because I dun wanna waste anymore of the battery on my laptop. Hope life is cruising for all you out there in cyber land because here in my world I need to get back to studying for my exams which are in exactly 7 days! SEVEN DAYS!!! AHHHHh it's a sign... if anyone has read Song of Solomon.... anywho til next time my avid readers!

Pointless Time Wasting

It's funny... well not that funny... how my parents just don't seem to understand how pointless it is for me to go to class these few weeks before the major exams. There are the few classes where I still believe attending will benefit me and so I go, but then there are those that honestly don't serve a purpose any more. For example, tomorrow (technically today) I have an English class last period, but my teacher is serving jury duty and the supply teacher told us last class that all we'll be doing is reading in class. It's going to be a READING PERIOD!!! ugh! During that duration of time I could be studying for other, more useful things such as the math exam that I may flunk, or the history exam that there's way too much information to study for. I really don't comprehend how they find it so important that I attend a class where I'm going to sit and do nothing. I've finally convinced her that I shouldn't be going to that class and so she is going to let me come home, but she was like if when I come home at 2 and you're not there then I'll hit you. I was like fine! Honestly there is nothing else I'm going to do. She has this notion that I don't want to be in school anymore and that I'm just skipping school and going off and partying or something. Honestly mother, I have only 4 weeks left of school... two of which are filled with exams. Why would I wait until there was only 4 weeks left to quit? This close to the end of my high school year? It's just not logical! Anywho I'm going to go back to my studying now.

Oh I forgot to mention I now have 2 dresses for prom! yay! Now all I have to do is save up the money to go... =S that might be troublesome. Anywho later bloggers!

Time is Still Ticking..

So not much to say lately... Today the guys had their playoffs (?) for badminton, and hopefully they did well.

I'm getting really sick right now. I don't know what I've caught but my throat is sore and scratchy, my nose is slightly clogged, and I've been sneezing a lot. Maybe allergies? Hopefully.

Today in my last period english class (I have two english classes) we (my classmates and I) played a trick on our teacher. We turned his desk around so that the side that he was suppose to sit at was facing the opposite direction. We then rearranged the items on his desk and waited to see how long it took for him to notice. It indeed took a while even though we were all laughing when he walked back into the room and we waited for him to figure it out before continuing.

Lately I've been having this urge to go shopping. I feel that my wardrobe isn't really complete. I still need a couple more essential items, I guess? I still want to purchase a nice spring jacket, a wide belt that I can wear with dresses and or long shirts, some jackets or blazers, and a few more basic shirts of varying colour. It would also be nice if I could buy my prom dress. That right now is the deciding factor of whether or not I go to prom.

Well I must get back to work. Hopefully all is well when this hectic school thing ends.

It's Going to be a Long Night

Well this blog goes out to Kaleidoughscope, I guess... Today during badminton Kaleidoughscope approached me and we started conversing. He mentioned that I would write this on my blog some time tonight wouldn't I? and so I responded with a "yes" and so here it is. I also promised I would write "I hate Kaleidoughscope". Hehehe
So tonight I must fight the daunting thing called sleep so that I may complete my math portfolio for tomorrow. I have completed my CAS portfolio though, a grand total of 354.75 hours! Such a relief to have that off my back now.
I seem to lately have this yearnng to go shopping. I really want to go the thrift store and splurge on some pretty items. Yes, I did say thrift store because I think that having to scrounge through racks and racks of clothing to find that perfect item is quite fun. It makes the item worth that much more in the end when you find it and are like "Hmm, I wonder why the person threw such a great piece away!" Yeah, maybe I'm crazy, or maybe I can see past that whole stereotype that everything at a thrift store is a rag. Someday people will realize how interesting and fun it is. I still have a couple of friend who think that thrift stores are gross and that they can't even begin to imagine touching, let alone wearing, the items on the rack. Oh but do you want to know what the best part about the thrift store is? NO TAX! =D You buy it at exactly the price that it says, no more, but sometimes even less.
Lately I've been trying to find pretty belts that I can wear around my waist to excentuate it, as well as pretty tops in bright colours. I'm also looking for a couple of great layering jackets with cute detailing on them. Yeah, lately I've been watching What Not to Wear and well it's slowly getting to me. Maybe I'll dress really badly for a while so that someone would nominate me so I can get $5000 to spend for a new wardrobe.
Anywho I must say good night now because that ugly math portfolio awaits. I'll be back soon with yet another rant about my life. Til then I salute you all!

Shortest Post Ever?

BLAH!!!! Toronto Raptors lost today. Greatly dissapointed although we did come back from 20 point. behind to just 8-10 points behind. I must admit the New Orleans Hornets are really good. Mo Pete came back to home court finally. Aw I miss that guy. Such a great player... Can't understand why we traded him off. Hehehe yeah he misses us as much as we miss him. Can't blame him =P. I'm thinking I'm going to go buy myself a Raptors jersey as support.
I got myself yet another one of those stinking prom magazines. Yes, I'm still obsessing over finding that perfect dress after I lost my last one. It is quite depressing. I'm thinking of just going really simple but mommy keeps shooting down everything I point out. Bummer.
Tomorrow there is school, and lucky me the day after that both my CAS hours and my math portfolio will be due. Tons of fun isn't it?
Oh my friendD said that he wants to write a song with me! I'm excited. This should be fun. He's going to do the guitar/ song portion while I do the lyrical (?) portion.
Well I guess this is it for me tonight. G'nite gallaxy of stars!

Television Over-load

So it was a Friday today and so instead of doing any more work than I had to already I decided to indulged in some television. You know that box that flashes pictures really quickly with sound... the thing that I haven't really come into contact with since IB has taken my soul. Well lets just say that I indulged a little too much. Yeah I honestly just got off the television now and it's not even Friday anymore. Hehehe I managed to enjoy myself watching the following shows which have really inspired me and caused me to think. The first was What Not To Wear on TLC. I know! Such a funny show! I wish I could get $5000 to spend on clothing. But yes the transformation was impeccable. I was very happy with the results and kinda understood to the feeling that the girl was going through. She was 23 years old and engaged but dressed very trashy. She was an exotic dancer at one point in her life and kept most of the clothing. The most memorable thing about this episode was that the girl had this tail that she wore with everything! it was a tail with a tiny bell connected to the clip and she would wear it on her jeans, on her skirt, literally everything! I was bedazzled. But turns out she was a gorgeous girl underneath it all with a very childish attitude and brilliant sense of personality.

Following this shock of a show, and because I was too lazy to change the channel, I ended up watching this show called I Can Make You Thin with Paul McKenna, or something along those lines. Anywho the episode was about emotional eating, which I guess everyone suffers from. I found myself completely understanding what he was saying. And the amazing part was that this whole night I actually didn't snack on anything. I just drank water! It was shocking to me how his words rang true within me! He suggests that if one wants to lose weight that we take the time to savour our food instead of just gorging it down. This gives our body the time to process everything, as well as allows us to decide whether or not we feel full. He claims that what he is promoting is not a diet because you can eat whatever you like, just listen to how you're feeling and then follow those instincts.

And the last show, well not the last but almost last, that I watched and found quite interesting tonight was one on how Hollywood (on 20/20) has made situations such as rehab and drugs and drinking and made them into a game or a show. It is quite depressing looking at celebrities who are just one or two ages older than I am and seeing them get into car accidents, drinking and then puking their guts out, or dying from overdoses. Although abusing substances is not the only thing they do. Many celebrities end up exposing themselves which in turn lowers their value as a human. Also the show mentioned that many celebrities don't get the proper treatment that they need because the people around them, their "support system", rely on them to make money and so they can't afford to have the celebrities stay in the rehabs or else they may not have a career when they come back out.

All this got me thinking. You know back to that first show I watched with the 23 year old... well yeah NOW it makes sense why she dresses like a slut and such. Our perception of the media is so hidden behind tinted glasses that we don't stop to ask whether or not any of this, any of the things we are being shown is realistic or even healthy to our bodies. It seems that nowadays this idea of being rebellious and mistreating our bodies is a good thing. I'm quite saddened to see that this is my generation. These are the people I have to look up to. No I'm not saying that those are the only people out there, but they are the ones who usually end up getting front page news coverage, not so much the people out their dressed all proper and ate dinner with families and friends. Guess I'm a bit cynical about this right now but it is quite late. So I bid my farewell for tonight/ this morning, and I'll see you all on greener pastures!

It's That Time Again

It is that time again, the time to dig a grave and bury myself within it. Today we recieved our wonderful MATH PORTFOLIO!!! Woot what fun huh? Well actually I'm doomed to failure seing as I don't actually understand what the heck I'm doing! Ugh! Please kill me!

Anywho watched badminton games at my school today. The boys doubles A team didn't get to play which kinds of sucks because they're probably one of the better peoples on the team. We were so close to getting a perfect score today! ugh! We did lose one game though so... one point away?

So I watched the Raptors game today! Woot finally we won! 89-81 against Detroit. It was spectacular. I know hard to believe that a girl like me likes basketball but I do I really do. Anywho my favourite player would have to be Caulderon! He gave up his place in the starting line-up for the benefit of the team! Oh what a sweetheart!

Also I've in the past week or so I have watched the movie "Because I Said So" about a billion times. It's not that great a movie but for some reason I get this incredible yearning to watch it. Very strange. Well I don't have much else to say tonight... or this morning so I'm going to bed.

Adios Amigos!

The Crumbling of My Life

NOOOOOO!!!! So lets just say my dispair is because the dress I want was not attainable. They had none in my size. I'm just a little thin for their liking. Ha! Well actually I'm a size 2 while everything they had was above my size. Also the dress cost 250 dollars and so I sure as heck was not going to buy a size up and then go get it fixed. If I were to buy it it had better be perfect already, like the size 2 was. Anywho so yeah dissapointed that now I'm back at square number 1 with my whole search for a dress thing. Hopefully this will be over before IB exams begin.

This reminds me, all the work a.k.a. labs are piling up and there's only a month and a bit of school left before those darn exams start! I"m honestly freaking out inside. Funny huh seeing as I'm still here writing in this blog. But honestly though, if I didn't write on here I'm sure I would explode from all the stress. Anywho teachers are now on our backs about the CAS hours. Personally I must say DO NOT LEAVE THE HOURS TO THE LAST MINUTE!!! I have a couple of friends who are currently still scurrying around trying to find their few left over hours. It's slightly amusing but also sad. I swear the IBO set the number of hours required this high to torture us.

Yeah sure 150 hours that's no biggie, and while you're at it I'll throw you a 4000 word extended essay that you have to die to finish. OH and if that isn't enough I'll top that off with a TOK essay that's sure to make you go insane and want to pull your hair out! Good luck! Oh and don't forget to complete all the other assignments that are NOT extra and study hard for your exit exams. Much love, the sinister IBO head, who is actually the devil masking as a person.

UGH! But yeah I am a bit dramatic...

Anywho time to go suffer what is left of my life as an IB student. Good luck to all who are also enduring my pain and for those who are just amusing yourselves with my miserable life, I must say you're all very lucky!

To Sum Things Up

So at close to midnight yesterday I came to the realization that it was one of my other friend's birthday. Lets call her V. Well indeed it was V's birthday and I hadn't said happy birthday yet so I was freaking out. I figured that just saying happy birthday on her facebook account would suffice. Hopefully she won't kill me.
Anywho so the party yesterday was fun. Very cute waiters there. We dared one of our friends (lets call her P) to give a note to the really cute waiter with her phone number on it sealed with a kiss. It was very amusing, but she ended up not doing it. Kinda disappointed about that. P was like "No, I'm too shy." when clearly it wasn't meant to be anything. It would have been very amusing if she gave it to that cute waiter and he actually ended up calling her! Ahahaha yeah...
Woot in about 15 minutes or so I will be going to Fairview Mall to get my prom dress. So excited! I'm currently debating whether or not I should bring my beautiful gold shoes to try on with the dress or not. I wouldn't want them to get ruined or anything and it'll probably just end up being extra baggage that I'll have to drag home all the way from Fairview (which is pretty far from where I live). I don't have too much to say today. Oh there's school tomorrow ugh! Anywho I'm going to go grab a bite to eat before my friend gets here and we head off. Maybe I'll write a post later, or maybe I'll write one tomorrow. Til then I bid you adieu!

Perfecto!

So yesterday I went to the mall with my friend to find that perfect prom dress... and well... I found it! Yay! It was a very perfect moment. My friend told me it was a tearing moment... lol how pretty I looked apparently. Anywho the store didn't have any more in my size, and we couldn't buy the one being sold because it had a lipstick stain on it and the straps that are used to hang up the dress was broken. The stuck-up manager lady said she'd give us a 15 dollar discount on it and that was it. Comon' that's not even enough to take it get cleaned! Also when we pointed out the mistakes that were on the dress she was so snooty about it! She was like oh but you have to cut off the straps anyways... What idiot in their right mind cuts off the straps of the dress (not the straps to wear)... how the heck are you suppose to hand you're dress up then??? Anywho so now I must wait until tomorrow to get my dress...

Mother also bought me a perfect pair of boots! It's one of those boots that are a must to every female's wardrobe. It is gorgeous and I love it. I've only recently discovered this whole infatuation with shoes thing that all females apparently have. I've spent so much money on shoes lately. I bought the sexiest most perfect gold open-toe pumps the other day to wear to prom which cost me about 80 dollars. Then I went to the trift store (Goodwill to be exact, and no I'm not ashamed, it's part of the whole going green thing) and got me a pair of knee high boots (pleather?) for just a mere 10 dollars! And finally yesterday the boots that Mom bought were 40 dollars and are ankle boots (suede)! Both boots are black in case you were wondering, but yes I love each and every one of the shoes.

Tonight I wil be going to a dinner party for my friend's birthday and will be able to use my brand new ankle boots. Woot! Oh the friend that came with me to the mall to find my perfect prom dress also came with me and my family to dinner at the Korean BBQ. Oh my was the wait long. Really fun as usual but still, the person seating us said that the wait would be 20 minutes, and he was, sadly, right... ugh I hate it when they're right!

these are not my shoes but similar. (My heel is so much sexier =P)

Universities of Doom

So I woke up today by the ringing of my cell phone. It was my friend. She's been accepted into Schulic (I hope that's how you spell it although probably not) and was very excited. I'm quite happy for her, but it could help but get me thinking about my prospective accpeptances. Had this wonderful school forgotten about little ol' me? So as is expected of me, I went onto their websites all eager and excited to see "decision pending" "no decision yet" and "in progress" on the sites of the universities I have chosen to apply for. It's such a let down. And so as a pick-me-up I went onto the website of the one and only school thus far logical enough to accept me to make me feel better. =D oh what a happy momment it was to get their acceptance. I would describe the feeling as that time when I was a child and I recieved all of the presents that I had wanted and then some... Sadly it's not the school that I want. Still waiting for that one envelope to truely make me the happiest person in the world. Hehe who would have thought that getting accepted into a school so you could take more tests and do more projects and give them YOUR money would make me happy. But apparently that's how it is in this society. Strange really...
Later today I plan to exert no effort whatsoever wrapping the presents that me and my friends got for my other friend's birthday. It should be quite entertaining... which reminds me... I stil don't know where we're going =S

Introduction to my life

This blog was inspired by the crazy commodities that have been occurring in my life as of late. I've had a sudden inspiration to go "green". You know, the whole save the planet, recycle your garbage and what not. So far it doesn't seem so bad. Actually, I'm having a lot of fun with this whole out look on life. So I guess along with my new found trail of going green this is a very late blogging rant about life as an IB (International Baccalaureate) student.

The life of an IB student at the end of the journey is not that much different from one who's just starting it. This horrible program officially begins to eat away at your social life, and personal life, and life altogether when you enter Grade 11. You enter not knowing that all they are doing is telling you completely fallacious promises. "Oh you'll get into great universities, the program is excellent and world renown, etc." but the one thing they forget to tell you is that you also must sign your soul away. It's one of the catches that come along with the program. Looking back now on the adventure of the program thus far I wouldn't say I regret taking the program, but indeed it is very rigorous.

In the end this is the life of an IB student. Those are the words that you'll chant. But the program is also guaranteed to teach you how to BS and procrastinate to the fullest.

Well that's it for today people, ta ta for now!
