Lord of the - I Don't Know

     This is probably going be a short post, because I am super tired and have to get up super early tomorrow. I have been staying up kind of late every night this week, which has been fun but also detrimental to my day life. I am staying at Kayla's tonight as we have to leave early in the morning for a school trip. My tiredness was not very helpful when we decided to watch the first Lord of the Rings movie, either. It was good, but I spent a good deal of time trying not to fall asleep (which I ended up doing a few times). I think I get the gist of the movie, so now everyone can get off my back about it. Now just to watch the next two.  -_-

     I never really answered my own question last week, as I wanted to hear your opinions. I was caught between the chameleonism and wings. I have always liked the idea of being able to fly, but after thinking about it for a bit I like chameleonism better. It would be an interesting skill to have, especially when trying to be sneaky.

     Katie, I don't really have any tricks for staying focused. I am usually quickly drawn into a book, so focusing on it isn't a problem. My advice would just be to find an interesting book that captures you. And if that isn't possible, eliminate all other distractions and set aside time specifically to read.
      Adam, I will never understand sports. Rugby looks like a very scary sport, not one that I think I could watch without constantly cringing. I mean, everybody just jumps onto one another; that cannot be safe at all. I hope you are enjoying The Great Gatsby, we read it in school this year and I loved it.
     Try not to worry much about the weather, Kate. It could always be worst, trust me. We have about three feet of snow here right now, and it's always blowing around or snowing more. I would give just about anything right now for there to be only 2 inches. Have fun with track, don't wear yourself out.

     I hope everyone has had a good week, and that your weekend is even better. Don't forget to be awesome!

White Christmas

So school is finally out today, it was pretty pointless to even be there seeing as we didn't do any work really, but I guess the free pancake breakfast made up for it. A little bit anyway. But now that's done (even though technically I have two essays and some math to work on, but I'm not thinking about that right now lalalalalala) and I'm in Thunder Bay for the holidays as per usual. We still have to decorate and finish wrapping presents since we just got here, but we have time and it'll be fun. My sister is back from Ottawa so that's nice, too. We're planning on doing a lot of fun stuff while she's here like baking, skating, making a snowman, and maybe skiing.

Campion, I honestly can't even imagine Christmas without snow, it just seems so wrong to me. Christmas is the time of year when its cold out with tons of snow so you have hot chocolate and play outside while being bundled up so much it's hard to walk, and toboggan down huge hills. We already have maybe a foot and a half of snow here.

Adam, I consider myself Canadian first and I also consider myself an Ontarian, but more than that I consider myself a Northern Ontarian because our province is so big and southern Ontario isn't really the same as northern Ontario. If that makes any sense.

On a completely different note have you guys seen the trailer for The Hobbit? I was so excited when I saw it, it feels like I've been waiting forever for the movie to come out (because of all the stupid delays and setbacks) and I still have to wait one year to see the first part, but that's better than before.

So yeah, Merry Christmas! DFTBA! And I haven't really seen anyone say that they don't celebrate Christmas, but if you don't (and for our readers who don't) Happy Chrismukkwanzaadan!
