May 16, 2002 - So sick. Saw Friends, so harsh for Ross

May 15, 2002 - I haven't been updating much lately since I'm doing bad in school right now - wonder why I'm slacking so much - must be because of pA or Tiger Hong. You two dingdongs lol j/k.

May 10, 2002 - Was one of the funnest days I've had in a long time. It felt exactly like Friends since there was six of us. Lol I'm Ross.

May 8, 2002 - There is a lot of ppl who scored high on my friend test which leads me to conclude several possibilities: 1. Some ppls took the test lots 2. Everyone figured out the right answrs collectively 3. The test was too easy 4. My friends know me so well =) I'm leaning towards the last one myself :p.

May 1, 2002 - I was so bored and didn't want to study for my exams and I played Mindmaze (in Encarta) lol. yikes. I'm prttey tired, heading to bed early tonight.

April 29, 2002 - Had to reformat again because of a stupid e-mail virus.

April 20, 2002 - I am exhausted from the tower climb I did. I ran up the Calgary Tower 16 times today, hard but I could have done better. I�m sort of satisfied though because it was a pretty good experience. I met some old classmates from my junior high. My quads cramped up harsh so I had to stop for a while (30 min around) which cost me a couple attempts at more climbs and the elevator waits in the beginning were long. Next year, I�m going to do so much better because I�m going to train my butt off for it. I need more leg strength and endurance training. This past week in school has been pretty low-key, been mostly able to get to sleep earlier than later. IB Exams are getting real close, nervous because I am really not ready for them at all. Hopefully I can pull decent marks. English midterm and Social unification of Germany and Italy on Monday.

April 19, 2002 - I am so nervous about tomorrow, hope I acheive my goal...ahhh thanks to all my friends and teachers who helped me out for tomorrow.

April 14, 2002 - Ate so much sushi today, yummy =). Ate some pizza too when I got home too lol:p.

April 13, 2002 - IB final exams are coming up in about 3 wekks, ack. Been getting a little bit more sleep lately and my marks have inched up a bit. I might even make honor roll if I work my ass off for the last couple weeks of school. Feeling good about my upcoming Tower Climb since I've been working out a lot(endurance training) and playing badminton. The date of when I'm leaving on my trip to Europe is July 8 and I'll be back August 13. Don't know my full trip itinerary but when I do I'll put it up. Hoping to get lots of practice speaking French and enjoying the sights and culuture of Europe. Got 12 hours of sleep last night - yay.

April 5, 2002 - Back with ever more of my life stories due to increased demand by my faithful readers. One of thses days I might even be convinced to post some of my writing e.g. poems on my site if I'm brave enough. So much things have been happening this week, it's been a whirlwind. In Bio30 and Math31, we finish the normal curriculum by Apr 15 and start studying for IB exams. Very stressful because of my marks but I gave up badminton to concentrate on studies. Been sleeping a bit ealrier lately since tuesday and I've changed my bad habits - mostly. Today was pretty memorable in a long time. After school, I went to the library downtown to start looking for saocial topicsw/ Patrick and Jason. There was a huge protest right outside the library too which included lots of cop cars, bikes, and cops in riot gear. The memorable part was when Patrick said to Roxanna: PUT YOUR PANTS BACK ON. LOL I laughed so hard, trying to keep it in b/c I didn't want to get kicked out of the library. Officially Cindy turned 17 on the 3rd so happy bday again - Note: I was the first to say it heh. Time to find some desert b/c I'm getting hungry again.

March 30, 2002 - Watched Three Musketeers yeaterday night lol, it's kind of nice to be able to enjoy a classic film like that in peace. Got big load of hw to do. I might be going to Europe for a month!! Pretty excited.

March 27, 2002 � Haven�t been able to update in a while because my computer got so messed up I couldn�t even start it up so I�ve spent most of my time fixing it up from scratch. Monday I went to the y to play basketball but everybody else (not me) was so late. Heh I was early � so early. Got a good workout to on the circuit machines. Sore the next day but not today except for my legs a bit because I did so much running. Went reallllly early today to Cindy�s house for her birthday party. I was 45 min early, lol, told you guys that I would be on time =). Charades was so fun! Lol I still think there was a conspiracy and that we won. Jones, that pepper was really hot, made my eyes burn and almost made me gag. Tired now. Hope Karen and Lilian get better from their stomach flu.

March 12, 2002 - Did really good on my social test on the French Revolution, thanks to some frenzied and prepared studying. Napoleon - what a guy. Math mark is so bad. To all those who remembered me in junior high they will be shocked. I was like the math geek and all with like 95 in it. Bio mark is okay middle of the class. English - Macbeth unit test tomorrow - ahh!. Massive crunch time coming up. Did okay in badminton today. Hope I make it.

March 11, 2002 - Bombed my math test, calculus is hard - I have to do more homeowork I guess. Haven't played badminton in a while - tryouts started after school today. My upcoming project will be one for the environment. I'll be fundraising soon for my Climb for Wilderness. Cheer me on because I'm going to break the record for youth climbs. Lol I'll probably die and fall back down the steps - hopefully I'll be ready for it. Goal: at least 100 bucks.

March 10, 2002 - It's 4 in the morning right now and I was talking to my buddy Phil on icq and I realized it's been a long time since I've done any serious work on my site. It's just that this new year seems to be different from years past. I think I've matured more in that some things aren't as important as they were before while other things are more important. This could be bad or good I guess it all depends on how I get through this. I view it as a personal challenge of my will to adapt. The bad habits of my life like procrastinating and going to bed so late should and must be changed in the near future. My soul searching hasn't quite come to an end but I know that the troubled times of the present will be overcome because my friends believe in me and because I believe in myself (mostly). Perseverance is a trait that I have and my close friends know that I don't give up, I absolutely hate giving up. It is the worst experience ever. Giving up is not an option, I believe in doing things completely. Why start something that you cannot or will not finish. It is noe 4:38 am and I was just yelled at by my parents so time for me to hit the sack and get some shut eye, I've got a long day ahead of me tomorrow.

March 2, 2002 - I got lots of sleep last night so I'm feeling much better and I'm ready to sleep more :P. Lots of homework this weekend because of my procrastinating has left tons to do. I've got to change that habit soon. I'm hungry - off to lunch I go.

February 18, 2002 - Been a while since I last updated, lots of things have been happening. Quick overview of what's happened: dinner at Taco Bell, reorganized my old stuff, grandmother went to Vietnam, been doing some more soul-searching, spent a great day with the guys. I've been sort of isolating myself lately to find my motivation again. I think that the repect of my peers will be the motivator for me. I'm a very competitive guy and I strive to be the best at what I do. I don't give up to easily so maybe if I can remind myslef of my nature I can do better in school.

February 9, 2002 - My namesake makes more and more sense everyday. Things seem to be a little on the negative side. I thought I had my life all figured out but then something life shattering happened (or many little changes happened). I've decided that I don't really give a flying *beep about what other people think. All I care about right now is school, life, friends, and family. Nothing will deter or make me waver my path that will threaten those.

January 28, 2002 - Surprising how a thing like WWF wrestling can get my mind off things and Stone Cold won too, what a guy. I think I see what my problem is - I just have to not let other people bother me, that's all I hope.

January 27, 2002 - Lately, I've been doing a lot of soul searching to try to understand the greater depths of what's really meaningful about life. Things seem surreal and I don't take much interest in too many things anymore. I've gone back to my roots to discover myself. Life isn't about staying up late and doing homework. If I'm not able to finish my homework I just let it be. Stress isn't something I want to be saddled with for the entirety of my high school experience. I'm going to have to make some big changes to better myself and prepare myself for when I go out on my own. My parents aren't always going to be there to help me up when I fall, and that is scary. When I'm in university away from home, I'm going to have to be more independent than ever before. Sure, we all say we're ready for university and that we can't wait to get away from our annoying parents and/or out little (insert pet peeve here e.g. brother). Starting right now I'm going to be a better person and there's going to be some great changes in how I deal with people from now on. I hope that I can fulfil this so off to work.

January 22, 2002 - Lately things have been pretty confusing. I don�t know what�s wrong with me. Ever since the Christmas holidays, I�ve been feeling out of sorts with myself. It�s like I�m detached from everything. The feeling is kind of like how Rocky felt you know in Rocky III when he lost and couldn�t come back. Apollo told him he had lost the �eye of the tiger�. I feel like that, like I�ve lost my edge or something, I�m not as competitive as I was before. I�m afraid I�ve been hobbled with complacency. I need something, anything to motivate me;I'm slacking off so much. My motivation last year used to be being numero uno in everything. I was the kid that every parent wanted, doing my homework and participating in school in every aspect. This year, I've found myself falling into a rut. It's like I've felt I don't have anything to prove anymore and it's unsettling. I'm too nusy right now to write any more as it is 1 in the morning so I'll add some more later (I wonder if anyone still reads this?).

January 13, 2002 - I pulled off 2 all nighters so I could finish my chemistry booklet on wed and thurs and I am still so tired. Yesterday went to big b-day party for 5 og my friends. Happy b-day to (alphabetical order) Karen, Kari, Michelle, Tina, and Yin. Got my new 'maximum coolness' computer (lol). Update later b/c it's 1 in the morning right now.

January 10, 2002 - Not updating until stress is over, in maybe 2 weeks after exam week (got 8 bug exams over next two weeks) bye.

January 8, 2002 - Man, I'm in trouble this week already. It's 2 in the moring got hw so later.

January 2, 2002 - Happy New Year everyone!!! Same problem as the last time I was able to update - a 502 gateway error/timeout error. When I logged on to CP the other day I saw a member called DiefVote, lol I was like huh? I wonder who it is anyways. 2 months now :). Everyone is so depressed lately and seems like so many old friendships are breaking apart. Too hard to write about that so on a happier note I spent a quiet day with Lisa. I'm still waiting for my 'maximum coolness' computer, heh it will probably be ready for friday or saturday at the latest. Peace and goodwill to all.

December 29, 2001 - Haven't been able to update for a while because I kept getting a 502 Gateway eror...dunno what that is since I'm not an internet techie. My Christmas holiday is half over and I still haven't started my homework, been doing lots of thinking and worrying but now I think I'm all done and can start concentrating on life again. Plus I'm going to get a new computer so I'm all happy, lol I'm such a geek but yes I'm getting it custom designed and built for 'maximum coolness.'

December 25, 2001 - Merry Christmas everyone!!!

December 23, 2001 - Well, I survived the last week of school :p, barely though and I did bad on my last exams in all subjects. In french I got 60% (that's harsh), in math I didn't even finish my test, in biology, I couldn't finish all of the written response and in chemistry, I ran out of time (it was an ib energetics test). Now I got a huge load of homework for the holidays. There was a bright point however; I went to a party at and it was pretty fun, we exchanged presents and then just chillaxed :P. Spent some quality time with my friends. Some of them got totally drunk though and they were totally messed up. They couldn't walk straight, etc. I left at about 11:30 and dropped off Annie too since she didn't live that far away from me. Some fun times, I'd like to see the video we made during the party , heh I think it'l be pretty funny. Christmas is coming :P and I'm hoping to get a new computer because my brother always hogs the computer. Yesterday I spent a lot of time cleaning up my room and just taking it easy. I found some old school stuff from as far back as gr8. I was like holy cow, and then I dumped them and other old stuff. I went to sleep pretty early last night, I think it was 12:00 when I went to bed. Well today is going to be a family day: lunch with family plus relatives and dinner with family plus relatives. I'm back with more news, and it's now nearing midnight. I went to my little cousins house after lunch to help his dad with AOL and then I played on his playstation with him = fun. Had dinner and I'm back chatting and looking for a new computer.

December 18, 2001 - This is going to be a harsh week since it's the last week before Christmas break, my teachers are really putting us through the paces. It'll be hard for us all to make it through this week knowing that we then get 2 weeks of FREEDOM! Party time:), food, friends, presents, and all those other good things about the holidays. Hmmm, Patrick told me that DBZ isn't on anymore, too bad too, it was just getting to the interesting parts. I'm so tired lately, been thinking alot lately too, maybe have to rethink some things that my friends have told/advised me about. Did bad on my last math test on probability and on my last biology quiz on evolution. Overall, I'm beating Roxanna at Tetris :) lol, you're never going to beat me. I'm out, peace.

December 15, 2001 - It's been a while since I've updated because of so much homework. I was sick on a big day and I got behind for the rest of the week, right into next week too :(. Finally finished my christmas shopping, pretty proud of myself. I think this year sets a record for fastest christmas shopping finish ever. I'm going put lots here soon, right now just going to tweak a little things around here on my site in general.

December 7, 2001 - Hmm, today started off kind of hazy on account of I had to wake up early to get to school if I wanted a ride. Talked to Jessica, a trainer from last year's v-ball team for like an hour just catching up on everything. Then I went to French class = test, hope I did okay...got some bad marks in French lately and I got my French novel test on Tuesday, fudge. Math test coming up, better finish my homework :P. biology work period again=). Chemistry lab = frustrating b/c we only have 3 electronic balances for the whole class to use so yeah, lineup. Went to y2k Saigon and ate pho, good stuff, but kind of small and not filling, I think today was another record as Cindy pointed out, I was the only guy so the ratio was like 10 girls to 1 guy, lol. I can hear Patrick say "Action Jackson". Went to Dragon City, TD, talked and walked around. Today was actually quite alot of fun =).

December 6, 2001 - Just thought I'd put a couple of words in here before my show comes on. That presenter we had today was pretty good, better than what I thought he'd be. Made me think of what I want to do in the future and what options are available to us. Hehe, omg show's on...cya guys later.

December 3, 2001 - Today I had to get up early to go to that U of A admission session - bad start. I rushed through the rest of my French novel because I was under the impression that there was going to be a test today, pbbbt turns out there wasn't. In math class tried to make some sense of probability. Spent lunch trying to figure out +, - molar enthalpies of neutralization reactions...fudge it, I got that wrong. Yesterday, I had a great anniversary with my girl :). I�m taking a nap now, can hardly keep my eyes open. Bye

November 12, 2001 - It's 12:15AM right now and still sick and I don't want to get sicker so I'm going to make this a pretty short entry. Well, I talked to a whole bunch of people today, got caught up: Lilian - to busy for me eh? We don't talk as much as we used to. Got homework left but screw it, I'm too tired to do it. I've actually written quite a lot in my Journal ever since I've started it. Lol, maybe in a decade or so, I can use it to write an autobiography. So somebody read them so I don't feel like I've wasted too much of my time on it. Oh and I've recently been working out now that cross-country is over. Man oh man...working out maybe twice a week on average is good for the bod :)...getting in pretty good shape :) Hmm looks like you can't put links inside text boxes so everyone just copy paste into address bar to get to Archive and new home page...bye...back again for night entry before I start French homework, updated friends page did a little more work on my new page. Bye

November 4, 2001 - I still got a lot of homework and I'm feeling pretty tired, I slept for 12 hours last night...that�s more than the entire week put together :P. I'm going to go see if I can find any HTML helpers b/c I'm bored w/ how this site looks.

November 3, 2001 - got on CP, name is Aznsmartiepants, same as on AA

October 27, 2001 - Wow I've got a lot to talk about today. I haven't updated too in a while so this should be an extra long post. I went to a video dance on Thursday, it was the first school dance I went too. It wasn't that bad, except for the part when the fire alarm went off and we had to wait outside in the fudging cold while they rechecked our stamps to make sure we had paid. Most of my friends were there and Tobi came from Aberhart too. Yesterday I went home right away because I was so tired. Then Jason, Patrick, and Renee called and we made plans. So we went to Saddledome first for that concert thing (Tobi, Tina, Jessica, Renee, Janice, Lisa, Matchy, Patrick, me) till 8 then Renee, Janice, Lisa, Matchy, Patrick, and me left. The girls went home and the guys went to Lindsay Park to meet up w/ Jason and Mike (Really, really sorry about missing our stop...feel so guilty...played b-ball till 11. I saw a real old friend on c-train home...Theresa...we haven't seen each other since Sansom (have I really changed that much hmmm?) I called her today but she wasn't home. I call cell later and we do something all right. Just to share something w/ y'all, I'm having a bad hair day...It's like an afro =)

October 25, 2001 - Haven't updated in a while, went to kicking dance tonight and I'm hungry so I'm going to get me some food. Bye

October 18, 2001 - Got home at like 6:30, so tired...I'm scared about how I did on that biology essay. I'm doing so bad this semester and I'm working my tail off to. Oh boy, I was sitting in my room today after I watched DBZ and I was thinking about life again. I don't even meet up with you old peeps at Pearson anymore. You guys are too hardcore for me :P...lol. I'll always remember the good and crazy times we had. Damn it all, I wish I never lost contact with you guys. Look at me, I'm getting all teary eyed..hehe..j/k j/k..off to do my calculus work in math...

October 17, 2001 - Been getting a fudge load of homework lately...I did like 8 hours of French homework last weekend and big essay I haven't started researching yet due in two days...Damn

October 13, 2001 - Got a lot of homework this weekend so yeah ttyl

October 11, 2001 - Spent 2hours 45min on math homework today. I hate math. Later

October 10, 2001 - Today I was very tired. I only got a couple hours sleep and all French class it was all I could do to stay awake. In the morning though, I had a biology work period but I couldn't sleep though because I didn't do any of the math homework from last night, which I did with Cindy that period. Chemistry was supposed to be a review of chem20 but I didn't remember any of the stuff he was talking about and apparently neither did our class. It took me like 40 min to do the last question on my Math trig test today and that was after the bell too. I think I did well though, worked my ass off at that quiz. Well I got a ton of Math homework and a major biology exam tomorrow so I'm out...I wonder if anyone is even reading this because I haven't got any new g-book entries so somebody sign it! I want to see a new entry soon. Bye

October 7/8, 2001 - It's midnight now so that's why there's a slash in my entry date. I'm pretty tired and I don't know quite why. I've been feeling depressed lately. I think that it might have something to do with me having a really bad throat infection. It's tough even to talk right now. Aiya, I'll post more later...too wasted to type right now...bye

October 6, 2001 - I'm really tired. Today I slept in, (told you guys I couldn't wake up that early) and went downtown to Treasures of China for dim sum then we went to Garage to play some pool...I'm still not doing good with my new style. Balls flew off the table everywhere, it was not a very pretty sight...At least I'm consistently okay :P. Went to Karen's house for cake and watched funny movie...took forever to get home and it was windy as hell by the time I got to Whitehorn station. I though I saw an old friend there but I decided it wasn't her, I could have sworn it was Parveen though...So I'm thinking of changing the look of my page again so that everything's tighter. Au revoir, and ta-ta for now...got to eat something.

October 5, 2001 - My life is starting to get very sad...I have so much hw to do this weekend and I want to go out tomorrow downtown to be with my friends and I'm going to Mike's for his birthday on Monday too. Man his party has been delayed like 2 or 3 times now...lol. His birthday was like 2 weeks ago. I went to the doctor at about 8 PM today and he said I was extremely sick and was surprised that I was still able to go to school for the past week. Shows you how much will power I got eh? lol, I knew I should have gone in sooner...but that's me...just too stubborn and impatient at waiting to see the doctor. I'm going now and taking my medicine so later. See ya ppls downtown tomorrow at dim sum. yay :)

October 4, 2001 - I'm back! Hey everybody how's everybody? I haven't been able to update this page in a while because of all my homework. This has been a crazy week...I got a 74 in math right now...not good for what I need. Man, I have to do so many more hours of volunteer work if I want a scholarship. Damn, my parents are so mad about my marks right now. Got to pull 100s, even that won't make them happy I bet. Got to go see ya ppls.

September 30, 2001 - I'm having a bad weekend. I haven't sold any of my Entertainment books yet and I have to sell them by tomorrow. I'm sick with a sore throat...I can hardly speak and this morning I sneezed blood...definitely not a good sign plus I got a ton of homework to do today. I'm tired and I still got my French homework to do and my math homework. I want to watch Blade tonight and it's going to be on at 8 so I got to do as much as I can right now so laters.

September 27, 2001 - Oh my god I actually finished most of my homework today and I'm going to be going to sleep tonight early, yay! I think that I am actually getting better now at cross-country. I felt real good after my practice today. That rest I got yesterday was really good for me. I did so bad on my math conic�s exam today. I was totally stumped by this question on parabolic curves...damn...I have a bad mark in math right now. I'm going to have to work my ass off to get back on track. Well, I think that I'm going to have to study now. Bye

September 26, 2001 - I didn't get much sleep yesterday night, only an hour in fact because I was cramming for my biology exam, I really got to do some homework so later. Way too much homework lately, but at least I have a life on the weekends. Bye

September 24, 2001 - Today has been pretty busy on account of homework and all. I'm like backed up in my homework till like a week ago. I'm doing like so bad in all my courses especially math. I know, I know I can't believe it either. I used to be so good at math, now it's my worst subject. Well, got a whole bunch of chemistry to do tonight so later.

September 23, 2001 - Hey everybody, how�s it going? I think that geocities has finally turned over a new leaf (unlike me, homework and me still don't mix) and has turned into a reliable service to which I can log onto every day. Anyway, I had a pretty good weekend, except that I haven't been able to sell my Entertainment books yet. Anyone who wants one e-mail me, the cost is $40 (I know, I know, it's a long shot that anyone will even bother about it, but a guy can hope, can't he). I promise to myself that I will turn over a new leaf and work harder. You are all my witnesses. See ya laters got to do homework at the last minute again.

September 22, 2001 - Wow geocities worked 2 days in a row, I'm on a roll baby. I hope that I can fill more in later. Bye

September 21, 2001 - Oh my god, how come geocities messes up my account so much. Today is the first time that I have been able to log on to edit my files since my last journal entry. Oh well what can you do eh? Anyways, a lot has happened since my last entry. Just to sum it up, I went out a lot (too much) and I started school. Man, school has been really harsh lately and I joined the cross-country team this year, its pretty rough on me because I haven't been doing any serious exercise over the summer. French 30 is a killer, math30 is actually hard now, bio20 pretty cool going quick though, chem20 is okay except that I�m not remembering the material when I do tests. My lockers in the Science hall again this year and I'm sharing it with Lilian. It's going to be a long year but hopefully fun, fun, fun. Going away now to stuff my face (I got to get a good diet going, I've been going to Mcdonalds and 7-11 way too much). Later everybody.

August 9, 2001 - So geocities crapped out on me again but at least it's working today. Went to Shooters yesterday, I finally played 9-ball for the first time. It's really interesting, hehe Patrick. You couldn't believe that I combo the 2 into the 9, did you? People who know me at all know that I go to sleep late so last night I decided to change. Now I'm trying to get to sleep before 1 or so.

August 8, 2001 - Well, geocities has finally let me access my account again and I'm not sure how long my good fortune will last so I'll try to do as much as I can before logging off. So since my last entry, a lot of things have happened to me. I finished Physics at Viscount, did pretty good. Went out a little too much so I think I'm probably going to spend a quiet week now to get rested up *yawn*. I went to a Cindy's house for a really nice party (I think it was on the 27th of July), lots of fun =). Thanks to Karen for giving me a ride home at 1 in the morning. On the 3rd of August, a whole bunch of us (28?) went to lasertag. It was okay but the maze itself wasn't that big compared to some other ones I had been to before. Went to Cindy's house and hung out there for awhile. Got a ride home from her bf. My aunt just gave birth to a little girl (Annik). I started looking at my little driver's handbook so I can get my learners soon :P (I know, I know, I'm 16 and I don't even have my learners yet). Add some more stuff later but brother wants to use the comp again. Laters people!

July 19, 2001 - Feeling pretty tired, thankfully, my teach today postponed out physics exam. Study time now, sorry about my short and few entries but geocities is really messed sometimes.

July 16, 2001 - Fudge, I've been feeling so bad lately and I have no idea why. Starting last night I've decided I got to get to bed earlier and hope that it works. Let's see if I can recount all the things that have happened to me since my last entry. For some reason, I haven't been able to access my account since my last update and I have no idea why. Pissed me off big time, geocities didn't even e-mail me back about what the hell was wrong. Well I have a pretty poor memory so I'll just write what I remember. One of the recent things I remember was on Saturday (July 14). Woke up late and decided to clean out my closet (very dusty! *cough*cough*). Got a phone call and I remembered about the party at Karen's house. Went there, had a lot of fun.

July 11, 2001 - I haven't updated in a while so decided to put down some thoughts before I forget (I have a bad memory). So let me think about what's happened since my last entry here...hmmm...well on Monday I got back my unit test and I can't believe how many idiotic mistakes I made on it. Fudge, I could have done way better if I hadn't made them. On the other hand, the time I spent double-checking my answers really helped on the multiple-choice portion of the exam. Well, Physics is getting hard now. Our class is ahead of everybody else too which I found out yesterday when I needed help on some homework. We're like 30-40 pages ahead of everybody else. I was getting so pissed off because I didn't understand it at all. I figured out a couple questions when I was out at Boston Pizza for dinner but luckily I called Lilian when I got home and she helped me out on the ones I didn't know since she had the workbook. Anyways, turned out I only needed to go a step further to figure out a lot of the questions I didn't understand. Today, got homework big time - unit test coming up on vectors, dynamics, and kinematics in 2D. Peace.

July 8, 2001 - Very tired today because I stayed up late last night. Wasn't worth it though to stay up that late because I still have my Physics homework to do...fudge. It's all good though. Think I'll go play some b-ball now.

July 7, 2001 - As you can see I did some major renovating to all of my pages since today has been basically a 'catch up' day for me. It's been pretty busy for me recently what with school and the time involved getting home from school so...yeah. Today I was going to go to a Stampede breakfast thing but I woke up late so I decided not to go (I slept all the way till lunch almost). Talked to some of my friends, got a hair cut, played some b-ball with a neighbor. Watching Jackie Chan marathon right now, right now it's on 'First Strike'. I should start my homework soon, I think I'll have some pizza for dinner tonight. I haven't seen most of my friends for so long, should get together soon.

July 3, 2001 - Got a test tomorrow, got to study.

July 2, 2001 - Yesterday, I went to Canada Day celebrations at "Art on the Avenue" on 8th Ave. It was a lot different from what I expected, I was at this paper mache (spelling?) station and we finished off pretty quick then I got stuck doing face painting. Lol that was pretty funny since I had no experience whatsoever doing it. My specialty was rainbows :). I can now add face painting to my growing list of skills. I got a free T-shirt and free food (yummy). Today woke up and had to go to summer school at Viscount, so big and busy. I was registered in the afternoon physics 20 class and I didn't know anybody there at all. The class was boring, than I had to wait more than a hour to buy a Physics 20 textbook. Hate waiting in stupid line ups but I read somewhere that waiting in lineups takes up the most time after sleeping...wonder if that's true. Played b-ball and hockey after I got home like at 6:30 I think. Yeah, I'm going to go and do my homework now since it's past 11:00 already. I'm out of here.

June 30, 2001 - Went to Calaway Park yesterday, it was pretty fun but it was raining and sunny intermittently the entire day. Thankfully, I was prepared :), had an extra pair of socks, poncho, and a T-shirt. Hehe, wet socks make me grouchy and clean, dry socks are always good for morale. I'll add more later. Fun but when I got dropped off by Jones� dad, the stupid bus came late and I didn't get home for hour an a half, pissed me off.

June 29, 2001 - I went to pick up my report card yesterday and I was very surprised. The time that I spent cramming before my final exams paid off a lot, I can tell you that. I totally aced my exams and picked up a 92 in science and a 95 in math...sweetness. Highest marks in class...totally unexpected. I raised my math mark from a 78 to a 95. Afterwards on the way home it rained, and not just light drizzling rain but a downpour and I got soaked to the bone. When I got home, I took a nap and then got ready for my friend Watson's b-day party (very fun). I went to the Honour Society ceremony after (lots and lots of food). Today I was at Calaway (is that how you spell it?) Park. I'll talk about it tomorrow...I'm too tired right now.

June 26, 2001 - It's been a while since I updated this page so...I'm putting down what I did this week. Over the weekend, I slept a lot then on Sunday went to Treasures of China with family. Yesterday, stupid bus was slow so I started jogging to next stop, I do that sometimes just to burn off a little energy. I hate waiting for anything. After 5 minutes of jogging I turn back and what do I see? I see the fudging bus coming. I made a split second decision to sprint to the upcoming stop instead of going back because I thought that I wouldn't make it that way. I barely made it, and I fell dozed off on the c-train, making me miss my stop. By the time I got to Treasures of China to find my friends they had already finished eating. After that we went to arcade at Eau Claire, then Garage (I played horrible, lost 6 games because I called the wrong pocket for the 8-ball..grr). Today I'm just going to stuff myself. Nothing to do really, bad weather again right now. Isn't this supposed to be nice and sunny? Screwed up weather again.

June 22, 2001 � Score, my final test was over today, as of 3:00 PM. Went to Shooters, now I'm owe my dad 20 bucks. I was very tired when I got home today and I felt...sort of depressed. When you get right down to it, there was no reason for me to feel that way. I accomplished a lot of what I wanted to do this year. I made some great friends this year and succeeded academically and athletically but I still feel almost as if I hadn't lived up to the expectations of my peers. I know that many of them think that I'm smart or a jock but I'm not. I feel as if I'm being put up on a pedestal and I don't mind being there but I feel that I have to live up to everybody's standards. Listen to me now...I should be a psychologist eh? Don't envy me at all, my life is a total mess. I've been quashing my emotions for so long that I don't even know what is going on right now. I think I'm going to take a little time off and reevaluate what life is and what I want out of it. I got to talk to some friends, take a walk, etc.

June 21, 2001 - I'm going to add a little to my little journal today. Last night when I was talking to Patrick, him and me were talking about the math tests the next day, and after a while I asked him about if he had a job. Turns out, he's going to be working at the Stampede. He told me that he thought that one of our other friends had an appointment after his and Jason's. Lol, the story was that after they finished their interviews, they thought that they heard them call a Mike Jones up, probably just coincidence. I stayed up pretty late last night and I was kind of studying...didn't really help me this afternoon though when I took the math test. I'm an idiot, I made so many mistakes. My social test is tomorrow too. Didn't really study for it today after school when I went to the library. Oh well. I'm getting broke now too after the last couple weeks after pool and such. More later...

June 20, 2001 - Hey there whoevers reading this, I have exams week as you probably figured out because I haven't been updating this site often. Anyways, I crammed for my science test and took the test yesterday...fudge, I didn't do as well as I wanted but my friends know that I set high standards for myself. Everyone wants to beat me, tch tch tch, don't you guys ever learn? I'm too good = skills, hehe. After I went to the library to study with Cindy and Lilian. The entire time we were there, minus the fire alarm thing, I did 5-6 questions, lol. I suck at math now. Played pool at Shooters, Lilian so happy that she beat me at a game (she got lucky) and then we went to watch Atlantis at the Coliseum. That is a funny movie, had us cracking up in our seats. I went to the Village Square public library but then I walked around a bit thinking about life in general. I went to my old school, Clarence Sansom and talked to some of my old teachers and I realized that I haven't talked to some of my old buddies for a long time. It's really crazy how high school has changed us, some for the better, some for the worst. When I got back to the library, I was going to study but then I saw Kevin, one of my old friends from last year and we started to talk. We went to Pearson and he showed me around a little. I went to the food court, had a slurpee, went back to the library. Got home and then I fell asleep around 7-8 don't remember. I got to go now...I'm feeling kind of sick. Today, there was some weird stuff going on today. Lilian, Patrick, Jason, and me were all mixed up about it, I'll talk more about it tomorrow.

June 16, 2001 - Yesterday I went downtown with some friends to have some fun after the last day of school. It was kind of weird being the only guy of the group. I think it was like 7 girls and me being the only guy. Went around a bit and played pool. Went to Shooters after but seems like Chris had already left so I went home. Saw a couple old friends on the c-train. Good luck to Tobi at her new school, Aberhart, next year and we'll all miss you! All of us got to get together soon and play some pool or something. Exam week coming up so I won't be putting much stuff on my site but I will add tidbits and such.

June 14, 2001 - Awards ceremony tonight was short compared to the one at the Red and White Club. It only took just over an hour for the whole she-bang to wrap up. I picked up a French award and a Science one. Has anyone ever noticed that girls usually do better than the guys? Wonder what that could be about. I have to finish my last test tomorrow morning - French oral exam and still pretty nervous about it. Congratulations to those who got recognized like Matchy, Roxanna, Maeghan, etc.

June 13, 2001 - Got 2 more tests to do still! I'll add more stuff later between homework. So tired...I just want school to be over. That's some sweet stuff there:), didn't think I would get one. Damn I totally bombed my math test today because I didn't know how to do trig equations and I must have did okay on my social exam. I defined the terms okay but I only got 3 paragraphs done for the essay part of it. Fudge.

June 10, 2001 - It's been a while since I put something in here. Been pretty busy, I'm so far behind in math and our unit test is on Tuesday too!! Damn Mike for not sending me the science labs before he went camping...now what the fudge am I supposed to do? Our science unit test is on Tuesday and I'm supposed to use those labs to help me study. Next week I have so many tests and fudging its going to be a miracle if I do good on them. Lets see: I've got a test in math, 3 tests in French, a test in science, and two tests in social...fudge. High school really changes people, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worst. Ever since I came to Dief at the beginning of the year, I've seen that first hand as my old friends and I drifted apart. It sucks, I find it hard to even speak to some of them because I feel like strangers and I feel regret for that. On the positive side, I have made several good friends at Dief and so I guess life goes on. I got to start thinking about my summer plans too. Peace.

June 6, 2001 - Whoa...I stayed up late to do my social homework. Did nearly all of it last night. I feel like I'm a zombie right now. In science, we had another biology lab and I spent so much time trying to get a wet mount slide of an onion peel. lol in social the fire alarm went off again and that was weird because that's the only class we ever get fire drills in except for once. I am so far behind in math, its not even funny. I used to be so good at math, now it�s hard as hell. Slept a little in French class, that's when it was obvious I didn't get enough sleep because I was a little slow to catch up to everybody. It was like I know the answer! But it was already said...like 5 minutes ago. Stacey and I were both messed...not enough sleep...and Mike? He's just zooming through his homework like it was 2nd gr. stuff. I got to shape up or I'm going to fall asleep on my feet. Laters.

June 5, 2001 - Thank you to Jessica for her little toy thingamabob...took me by surprise, that's for sure...buts its cool. That kenny chair is really cool. hehe, anywho, I might be doing something Friday more to come gotta jet.

June 1, 2001 - I went to play pool today at Mike's. Sweetest tables there too, played for hour or two there. I went there with Pat, Mike, and Jason. We were all pretty much the same skill level and it was fun. I hadn't played pool prior to today for nearly a year. Skills are rusty :) but they there! Going to sleep early because I got to do a lot of things tomorrow.

May 29, 2001 - I'm going to cut down on what I say so as to save a little time for me to sleep:) Today started off bad and got kind of worst. Nearly slept in and almost missed my ride to school. If I had missed my ride to school I would have to take an hour and a half bus ride instead with weird people. No offence or anything but some bus people give others a bad name. So I went to French class and as usual, worked on my math. Next, I had math class in which we got kicked out of out normal class and had to go to this small classroom with tiny desks. There were some fun moments but mostly boredom. In social class we had like a 15 minute debate, lol, we were supposed to have a 50 minute one. Science class, did some work for a biology lab. Going on a field trip to Heritage Park, too bad we have to write an essay on the trip. I'm out, laters.

May 28, 2001 - A normal day really, I was as usual rushing to finish everything this morning. Those who have gotten to know me over the past years or so have found that I do that a lot. lol. Well anyways, I was in my math class and after the class bell rang two of my friends, Cindy and Lilian, came in and gave me a present. I was really surprised because my birthdays not until June 7 but I guess they decided to give me my present early. It was an awesome present by the way, never would have thought of it myself. Thank you Cindy and Lilian:) Their card was semi disturbing and semi funny. It had a picture of a di*k on the front and inside of it, it had all these funny things about the life of one. Phew that card got passed around math class for a while. Mike told me that Dom thought the card gave him the impression that the author was being weird while writing it, in other word he thought it was disturbing. French class was okay, watched this weird movie, kind of boring. In science class, had a quantum mechanics test (*shudder* - sounds scary), starting biology tomorrow. Social - work period so hung out in my friend�s CALM class till their teacher told me to leave. Didn't do any work in the work period besides visit friends :P. That's it for today.
