*Happy Sigh*

It's Friday! It's Friday! Yay!

Finally! ^^ It's been such a loooong week! I've had homework popping out of my ears! Incredible! >< Two projects both due for today! How worse can it get?! I think the history one counts more than the French one... But I think I ruined more the history one than the French one... ^^; 

Well, I found the history project 'pas de but' (pointless). Can't we do a more interesting project than this?! (Sorry for those who actually like this project... 'be surprised if people like that even exist though.) I've learned nothing from the project, I believe...  Hmm, maybe except the fact that a bibliography (meant for a project) is more complicated than I thought. Well, it's only the bibliography for the Internet websites... I think that's all about what I've learned. The rest, I practically copied and pasted the sentences (ssshhhhh). Well, I did read the sentences and choose a few and joined them together. *innocent smile*

Right. Hmm. Well, luckily, I've played DDR a few times, to make my week less boring. ... I feel sorry for Sai, who doesn't have DDR and who'd like to have one... Hehe! Guess whaaaat?! I got 'AA' at a five-feet song! Yay! And guess what the song is...?! Moonlight Shadow. How predictable. ^^

Oh yeah! I'm so lucky! Hehe! The music teacher chose me (along with 2 others) to play flute after school each week! It's like, a 'parascolaire' (out-of-school...? ^^;) group-orchestra. It'll be a great chance for me to improve! Well, I think the teacher chose those who can read the notes well, I guess. And I think I play rather loudly... I rather noticed that when I played wrong. You can especially hear me playing wrong ^^; Like, when I had trouble playing a part in the piece, and the teacher asked the flutes to play that part, I definitely made the made the flutes hear bad... ^^; I know that because it's the only time he said to us "Better catch on quick." or something like that, well, more mean-like, but something similar. Well, it's also possible that the other flutes had trouble too... Well, hmm, anyways.

Wow, I'd just realized how lucky can I appear with all my posts. Well, I'll say something bad gone in my week then! I lost both of my racquetball matches! Sniffles! I'm so going to have a bad mark this term in gym! T  T

Oh yeah, I can't wait for out Bishounen site! Well, the people that are going to check it are going to say "These girls are crazy." but who cares! It's going to be so fun!

So Free

I feel I'm homework-free today. Homework-free... what a nice thing happening ^^ Remarkable that how much work homework can take off. But you have to consider that I did my homework on the week-end, and we didn't really receive new homework to do this week yet. YET.

School is coming along fine... I had a better report card than expected. For a first term, that is. Normally, my first-term marks are the lowest of all terms. For once, I actually got nice marks in the first term. Hope the marks don't go down in the next terms... > >; Well, I'm pretty confident that I have a nice steady high mark in math. I pay more attention to not do stupid stupid stupid errors now in math exams. So yeah. 

Today, I was surprised how I improved in racquetball. (For more information, please check the post titled Ordinary?.) Yay, I really improved. ^^ I actually won both of my matches (against boys)! Hehe, I'm really improving. I want a re-match though. I know I can win a match now I lost at the precious gym class now. Maybe I could even win back both of them if I'm lucky. Wonder if re-matches are allowed though... *sigh* Naah, the re-matches wouldn't change the marks already done, but I guess I could play them just to win them... and I don't even know if that's possible. Each class, we only do 2 matches here, in the boys (including a few girls) group. The girls group, they've already done about 6 matches in two classes... Yikes, we take so much time... > >;

I am currently reading a book titled Midnight Predator. It's so good! ^^ 'Wonder if I could ever write as well as the author, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, of this book... Oh, and, since there's this novel project that our English teacher just gave us, (it includes 12 entries, yikes, and even worse, 5 orals...) I decided I would do this project on another book of Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. I'm so lucky, to be able to do this project on such a good book! Well, actually, I don't know if it's good or not, maybe less good the Midnight Predator, but I definitely expect it to be still good. The book is called Hawksong. Amelia gives such nice title to her books... and the titles represent so well their plot! 

I've also improved on DDR! Yay! This is the week where I improve my stuff, hehe. ^^; I can actually get 'A' on five-feet songs now! Maybe it's not a lot for some of you DDR-experts out there, but it's sure enough for a girl that couldn't really get 'half-beats' before. Hope I'll improve even more! ^^

Oh yeah, reminder. (Shame on those who don't know and knows the person.) Next week Monday, it's the birthday of a friend of mine, so let's wish her 'happy birthday' in advance! ^^ As of her birthday present, hehe... ^_~ You'll see!

So Far Away

Last Tuesday, meaning November 11, which is also Remembrance Day, I got robbed. Actually, we got robbed. It was a day like any other, I suppose. An ordinary school day. Until I found out my school bag was missing. No, I didn't forget or something. I always leave my school bag in my locker. And it vanished when I arrived at my locker at 4 p.m., the end of school. 

When I arrived to my locker at that time, the person who shares her locker with me, Cath, also a very close friend, just stared at me and said, "Our lock's gone, all my bag's pockets are opened and my lollipops are gone!" I narrowed my eyebrows, "Is something else missing?" "No, I don't think so..." she answered, and continued packing her stuff. I glanced at the inside of the locker and noticed something was missing. "Cath, my school bag's gone, with my Spanish books in it..."

It seems so far away now. Even though it has just been two days. It seems like a week ago, a month, perhaps...

I felt frustrated. All the trouble I'm going to go through in Spanish Class. Ugh.

Yesterday, Mila told me she noticed cards scattered on the ground in front of the Sports Center of our school, outside. Stepped over. Dirty. Those were the cards from my school bag. Now, they're soaked with the rain from today. 

Today, I went to Kaithy's house to do a French project about a novel we read in French (duh) called Bilbo the Hobbit. Returning home, I decided to check at the Sports Center to see if they've found anything. Was it in vain? No. Not at all. I found my school leaning against the wall inside the Sports Center. What a relief. ^^

A few things were gone, but my Spanish books were in it. That was the most important for me. The things that were gone? My bus tickets... and my color crayons. Quite a strange thing to steal, actually. Well, the bag of lollipops are gone... Oh yeah, I need a new set of cards...

Ordinary?

A week has drift away since my last post. Be content with that.I don't see why I'm blogging, since I don't really have anything to say... I guess I'm blogging because I told myself I would blog at least once a week. Be content with it, or it could be worse. *glances at certain people*

It was an ordinary school week, I suppose. I guess, hmm, I'll put some of the courses and I'll just comment on them for this week.

French - French class is always the best taught, I believe. We have, for once, a teacher that explains very well and go at an appropriate rhythm. We did, um... actually, I never remember what we do in class. French is the class that remind me most how we teach in primary school. Maybe it's the fact that it's French. Naah, last year, with Mr. Gilbert, French class was seriously badly taught. No one ever understood anything he explained. A miracle I understood what he was teaching, I wonder why. Maybe it's just the examples he gave.

Math - Boring as always. Our math teacher explains so slowly. He doesn't seem to get that most of the class already understood what he was saying. Took him 45 minutes to correct something. A record? Never checked. Perhaps.

Gym - We are currently playing Racquetball. For those who ignore what Racquetball is, it's a sport that, er, you have a tennis-like racquet and you hit the ball on the wall when you share the same limited territory with your opponent, and you try to make the opponent lose. If you didn't catch that, it's OK. There's just one thing I'd like to complain about. I can't believe that our gym teacher put me in the boys group (along with some other girls, which none are my close friends), when I suck at it. OK, perhaps not that much, but I believe I can get a way better mark if I was in the girls team. I lost both of my matches! T  T Well, the first one was reasonable that I lost, but the second one was real close. Could've at least won that one. > >" Huh, and there's one thing Kaithy said that really make me *rolls eyes* when our gym teacher named me to go. "Hehe, proves you need a boyfriend." As IF.

Let's stop there with the courses, shall we. There's not really a point of continuing when you don't really have anything to say.

DDR is fun. Definitely. I tried for my first time playing with two pads at the same time this morning. At the beginning, I got a 'D' with the easiest song possible. > >; After a while, came my surprise when I managed to get a 'AA' at a 3-feet-song. ^^ Bah, I'm still not in the league of Cyn (duh) or Kaithy. I guess I need loads more training.

Wow, guess I really had something to say.

Breathtaking

Halloween was yesterday, for those who don't know. So that means we went trick-or-treating. Was it fun, you would ask? 

"Hmm." would be the answer.

So let's start by explaining that answer with a lil' summary from yesterday night. Well, yes, we went trick-or-treating. We were five, including myself, Kaithy, Sai, Cath and Cath's brother. For those who have also gone trick-or-treating yesterday, you might have noticed that it rained. Well, let me precise myself. It only started to "rain" from 8-9 p.m. yesterday. By the way, that rain was not continuous, meaning it rained for a few minutes, then it stopped, and it continues to rain, then it stops, and so on, so forth. Anyways, I should start it chronologically, eh?

Well, first, we did Cath's street, then we did a neighboring street in which lived a friend and schoolmate of ours. There, we encountered Harry and Hermione (Harry Potter)! Oki, let me precise, mini Harry and Hermione. They're were so cute! ^^ We saw Hermione first, who was obvious from her bushy caramel hair and black cloak, running around the street for candies, but she was around 6 years old, I think, and she wore glasses. Behind her, we noticed Harry, who wasn't as obvious as Hermione, but the boy (around the same age as the lil' Hermione there) wore a black cloak too. Well, I give him points for the brown hair (though curly) and the glasses. And I definitely take off points because I noticed he did the fake scar on the wrong side. Too bad, they were cute anyways.

Then, we decided to go on Mindy's street, which was a few minutes walk. When we got there, it was not opened for Halloween. Oh yeah, we met a few people on the way. Then, our next goal was... Matthew's house. It was a few minutes walk also. Halfway came the rain I was talking about previously. Well, we still continued, call us crazy if you like. Guess if we actually met him. Y-E-S. But he was walking on the street, not at his house. It was seriously... um... never mind. It seriously started to rain on our way back to Cath's house though. Oh yeah, there was no Inu Yasha, but we still stayed until 11.

Now, what kind of title this thingy is this, may you ask.

I can't believe that... !!... Initial D finished soooooooo quickly!!!!!!! T T *sniffles* It only lasted around 5 hours! When it finished, I didn't even know! How can they do this to me! Unbelievable! After just watching it in the morning, and an hour from yesterday night, I finished it! Ahhh! Sis might finish it so fast, but me?! It's not long enough...!T T

'Initial D - stage two' was good. ^^ Cath, if you could only know the story! He actually lost a battle!! (Well, I kind of knew that before watching.) But losing that battle was really... touching. First time I saw his dad seriously care for him. His dad said he had to lose in order to improve, so duh, he lost a battle. Oh and, the ending song is a thing I'd like to mention. The first time I heard it, I finally fully understood what the main character was feeling. It was actually quite slow, kind of sad, mysterious. We hear it often in the film, and it truly makes this stage... I dunno, emotional. There was so many sad things in this stage, and that's mostly why I want to see the next stage!

Oh, and the drawing definitely improved. The characters have all grown, truly. (Ugggh, I finished it in a morning, can't believe it) And yes, it was definitely exciting. Breathtaking, as mentioned. And they just HAD to show a preview of the third stage. Sheesh! Don't they know that their preview makes some people want to continue watching even though they can't?! I want to know what happens! T  T The first stage did not make me expect it to continue that much, but this one, there's too many questions unanswered. Seriously. (Still can't believes she finished the film so quickly, when she expected to spend her time on it the whole week-end.)
