I can't wait to sleep on a real bed again.

Well, I guess I'm starting to get back into the swing of things a little. My slow and relaxing summer is over, that's for sure. Not that I'm complaining. 

Since my last post I packed all my stuff at home. It took two days to go through everything and decide if I wanted to bring it, leave it, give it away, or throw it out. Deidra was a biiiiiiig help, even though I felt bad that the last time I spent with her this summer was doing that. (She swore she didn't mind, but I dunno). I also got my hands on a copy of X-men: First Class finally. And by Wednesday morning I was off to Ottawa. The trip was boring for the most part. There was a bunch of construction on the way there so we probably got delayed like half an hour.

Unfortunately, my bed won't be coming in until tomorrow so I actually ended up sleeping the past two days on a pile of cardboard and some blankets lol. It wasn't very comfortable at all, but I've slept in worse conditions. Tonight I (thankfully) get the air mattress since my parents are now staying at a hotel. 

I haven't finished sorting my room out yet but that will get done over the next couple of days. My clothes are all put away at least. 

I remember watching Rubber before, I quite enjoyed it actually. I think I just thought the whole thing was so funny and ridiculous because I mean, really, it's about a flipping tire. A tire that can apparently think and has super brain powers. 

Kate, I can't think of any ridiculously named cities or towns around where I live really. 

Fun fact of the day: Did you guys know that German Chocolate Cake isn't named that because it comes from Germany, it was named that because an American with the last name German made some chocolate thing that was part of the original recipe, so they named the cake after him. I didn't know that until a couple weeks ago.

Semi-Officially Done High School

So my graduation was today. (A lot of things seem to happen on Fridays for me don't they?) It was pretty exciting I guess. I got a couple awards and I didn't trip so that's good. Most of all though my graduation was just really hot and uncomfortable. The grad gowns were so suffocating I felt like I was being roasted. The only thing that made them okay is the fact that they looked like wizard robes. The grad caps were not bad except for the fact that, if you didn't already know, I have really thick curly hair so it trapped all the heat in my head. It honestly felt like I was wearing a winter hat.

My sister made me a red velvet cake though so that was awesome. Red velvet is my favourite kind of cake. I also got a couple gifts from my parents, and my grandparents too even though they couldn't come to my grad. Like Deidra said, grad hasn't really sunk in yet really because I still have a bunch of stuff left to do at school.

Katie good luck on finals! Adam I'm glad your exams went well. Kate I do that all the time, I always feel like just lazing around and wasting time when I have stuff to do. Also good luck with Drivers Ed. Deidra wow it totally doesn't feel like it's almost been a year. I honestly have really bad memory and thought that we had started in like August or something.

PS - I can't upload a picture because my internet is being mean, but that's okay because I looked kind of dorky in the grad cap anyway.
