May is Kind of Bipolar This Year

     What to talk about when I don't know what to talk about. That is a question I struggle with every week, and somehow I always end up with a lengthy post about something. I'd really like to know how my brain works. Honestly, I wonder how anything gets done with the mass chaos that is my mind. 


     So yeah, our prom is coming up soon, the first of June, and no matter what Kayla says otherwise I am not particularly excited for it. I'm actually starting to get a bit anxious about it. Dances aren't really my thing, so I have this feeling that the whole affair is going to be nerve racking for me. I don't particularly like dancing, or large crowds of people, or dressing up, or the mainstream-type music that tends to get played at these things. It will probably end up being  blurred memory later on.


     June first is always Kayla's birthday (a major reason why I am consenting to go to prom) and I have been thinking of and working on what I am giving/doing for her. I have a really secret project that I'm working on, and I'm really hoping it turns out the way I am wanting it to. And a lot of ideas swirling in my head. 


     My summer vacation begins at the end of June after I write my final exam (hopefully on the 22) and goes to about the first week of September. Then I start university (scary thought). I don't know what I am going to do with my summer, aside from hopefully hopefully hopefully going to visit Hunter. Other than that, a lot of relaxing and swimming and staying up late and sleeping in. 


     Our May weather is kind of mixed up right now. It keeps going from nice and warm to rainy and cold. It's kind of annoying. I am actually kind of fond of the rainy weather. I've gotten to love storms, thunder, and lightning. It's weird because as a kid I was terrified of them.

     Your puppets turned out really amazing, Campion. I especially like the second one, it's got more of a defined body and detail than the first. Just goes to show that practice makes a better robot puppet. I wish we got to do cool things like that in art. When I took it waaay back in grade nine, the coolest thing we did was working with clay, which ended up a bust for me as my first project got ruined, and to make the grade up I had to make a second thing that was worse than the first one. 


     As for the Avengers, I haven't seen it but I've heard nothing but good things about it. It looks like a really cool movie. Lots of action and whatnot. I think I am most interested in being introduced to all of the characters, as I haven't seen any of the back story movies.


Anywho, hope you all have good weeks and weekends. Don't forget to be awesome!

Nine Days Till Christmas

Well my week has been pretty relaxed, probably since Chirstmas break starts soon. Today has been pretty epic though. I just got early acceptance to both the University of Ottawa and Lakehead University! I'm really excited about it. I'm not sure where I'll go in the end (I also have yet to hear from the University of Guelph), but I have like almost half a year to decide, so that's good.

The second sunflower plant finally bloomed yesterday and guess what? It's orange! I'm so glad that it made a flower. It actually grew a lot too and now the flower is too heavy for the stem, so I have to figure out a way to hold it up straight.

Tomorrow Deidra and I are going to go see the Nutcracker ballet. I'm really happy that we're going to see it because I've never actually been to a ballet before and I'm sure it's going to be amazing.

Adam, hope your finals are going/went well. Also, I haven't really been on youtube for a while so I completely forgot about P4A. I'll have to make sure to check it out tomorrow to show some support.

Wow, Katie. 7 hours of sorting is super intense, I would definitely not be able to do that. Also intensives sound pretty interesting and I think I played that game before, but I'm not very good with doing math games like that.

Kate, that's good that you get to see your brother again. Hopefully you'll be able to make a P4A video, too.

Kira, it's been a pretty mild winter so far to be honest, but we have had a bunch of snow so I took your advice and I was able to make a snowman a couple days ago, carrot nose and all. As for Christmas plans, just the usual relaxing and visiting with family with the potential for some fun stuff like skiing with my sister.

Campion, that sucks that the weather has been so bad, mother nature just likes to do that to spite everyone, eh?

DFTBA

PS- I just found out that the sequel to this book I really love finally came out. I've been waiting for it for over a year so this is really exciting. I'll have to try and get it ASAP. Today has been amazing, hope your days are going as well as mine!
