In Which I am Out of Character

     So like Kayla said, our prom was last Friday. All in all, it was a not bad experience. I wore a dress, and I admit I looked pretty damn good. It was uncomfortable though. Also, I danced, which shocked me a lot, considering I do not dance. What made it really awesome was that my boyfriend made scheming arrangements with my sister and mom, and he got me a corsage. It was really cute, and really surprising. Anywho, here is a picture of me:

     Our graduation is tomorrow, and I am not really all that excited for it. I mean, sure, we are graduating, but after we still have a weeks worth of school and exams to write. I just want it all to be over now. Speaking of things being over, I have completed the required hours for my co-op placement, which means that I can stop going any time I want. I think I am going to go next week for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I think I am going to find it difficult to leave those students.


     So it's almost been a year that we have all been merrily blogging together. According to our archives, Kate wrote our first post on June 27. It really makes you think. It doesn't feel like it's been that long. 


But I have a lot of work that I really need to get done, so I'm going to cut this post short. As usual, I hope you all have amazingtastic weekends, and don't forget to be awesome!

I wonder if a tail would improve my balance

Hey everyone. Hope your weeks have been going well. Grad photos were this week, which I almost completely forgot. Besides our individual ones we were allowed to sign up for buddy pictures so Deidra and I got some done, we did the Nerdfighters hand sign in one picture.

I did manage to finally go see Chronicle last weekend. It was pretty good, not exactly what I was expecting to see, but good none the less. I think I liked it because if by some chance some teens got super powers in real life I could see them behaving the same way the guys in the movie did.

Our teachers just informed us today that there's going to be a field trip to Thunder Bay on March 2nd to go view a bunch of science and medical labs. I'm really excited about it because I'm going into biology for university so I think it will be cool to go see what everything is like. We're even going to be seeing a DNA lab so that's cool.

My sister just showed me this song and it's already stuck in my head. It's called Somebody That I Used to Know (feat. Kimbra) by Gotye. You guys should check it out. Oh, and I only just realized that Martin Freeman, the guy who plays Watson in Sherlock, is also playing Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit. It's kind of strange I didn't realize it sooner I think, but I guess it makes sense because I only started watching Sherlock a while ago. Also just randomly wondering, do any of you guys watch the TV show The Walking Dead?

Adam, hope your tests went well. I've never even watched a rugby game on TV or in real life before (mostly because I'm not really into watching sports, but also because rugby isn't really as big here in Canada usually everything is about hockey) so it will be interesting to see those pictures if you post them.

Kate, I've often wondered what animals think when they see humans. I mean we stand upright, we have no tails, and we have no head-to-toe fur. Whereas we're completely fine with how we look it's very strange to think about it from an outside point of view.

I thought a bit about your question Deidra and I think I would choose a prehensile tail. It just seems like it would be useful to have an extra limb that can grab and hold stuff. Runners up: wings, gills, and a turtle shell.

DFTBA
