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!

I had a really clever title

Somehow I forgot, so your stuck with that. First off, I'm glad Craig has a dinosaur friend. I also made that dinosaur the background on my phone. I had the same boring, uneventful week. Sounds like you guys had a pretty awesome one though.  I've only ever been in a Shakespeare play, never seen one in a big fancy theater! Adam I can't believe how much fun your having at college, hope it stays like that! I can't believe that kid fell out of his chair, so good! This is going to be a lot smaller than I thought. School photo day was Friday, which is something I hate more than anything. Lets just say I don't photo well, at all. On an extremely sad note, death seems to be a trend this week. That boy, Jamey, who committed suicide because people were bulling him about being gay. Just horrible. I found out the night before international peace day. People the next day were using gay as an insult and it really hit a nerve. I felt so sorry for the parents of that boy and I wanted to tell those kids that they needed a language check. Also, today was the memorial for my neighbor who died of cancer. I didn't know her well so I couldn't feel too upset, but I'm still pretty sad about it. She was a nice, fragile old lady. She died almost a year ago if I remember correctly.

However, Nerd Factor is awesome! I watched the winning videos, and they're great. Really hilarious. I love Thomas Jefferson: The Musical. So hilarious. I wish I had something interesting to write about...Oh I have another question for you guys, but first may I say, I love your responses to the 'hero' question. This weeks question: In your opinion, what regions are most powerful? Why? And What makes a world power? Those are just some questions that came up in my History class, and I think it would be interesting to see your opinions. Also, a great website my teacher showed me:

I think its very interesting. One more thing before I go. Remember when I told you my sister went to Australia? Well she might be going on another trip like that with the same program, but to Italy, Sicily, and Greece. I'm so jealous, but I'm not old enough yet. On that note, I bid you a good

Bye!♥
