I'm going to the library today to work on some projects. Yeah. My presentation on To Kill A Mockingbird, where I'm suppose to trace Jem's growth and lessons learned through the novel, isn't quite as hard as I originally though, after I got it sorted out. By "sorted out", I mean getting a piece of paper for each age, drawing different sized stickman with an age over it, and scribbling "Events:" on one side and "Lessons:" on the other. Katie and I then each started scanning half of the book to find these events and lessons.
Personally, that book sort of bothers me, because both of the plot lines have a dead end. The books whole purpose seems to be to be controversial. I think the problem is that I was expecting more of it. If I wasn't expecting much of it, I probably would have enjoyed it far more. Grrr. My mind does stupid things.
My walls are now a nice, even shade of green. I figured out that my room isn't a puzzle that only fits together one way, but one of the puzzles that you slide the pieces so there's a gap.
Believe it or not, Christmas break has seemed an eternity long. New Years eve was a week ago. Christmas Eve was two weeks ago. I still have four days, and by the looks of people's facebook statuses, I will be spending it like most other IB kids: doing last minute projects.
Tomorrow I'm going to Fredericton for the day, then hanging out Sam and Katie, and then having some sort of social gathering in Colin's basement with a bunch of people. I'm hesitant to call it a party, because who knows what we could end up doing. Last time it ended up being a dance party, where Sam sat in the fridge for half the time.
I should probably get my stuff ready to go the the library. I should take my camera. Uptown is pretty (but icy) in the winter. I can fit it in with markers, paper, pencil crayons, etc that I find necessary to work on my projects.
Love,
