Happy holidays, my peeps.
Since I seem to be slightly too late, Merry holiday season!
For Christmas, I got a new hair straightener, new ipod speakers, and a ukulele. I can't wait to start serenading people with my ukulele. Any suggestions for songs I should learn?
I'm going to Sackville today because there's suppose to be a storm tomorrow. I fail to see the logic of getting snowed in in a small, sleepy town instead of getting snowed in at home. I'll probably get some homework done and practice my new instrument.
Off to packing!
Love,

Dear Santa, remember that flame thrower I asked for? I'm still waiting for it, buddy.
Dear Homework,
I know that no matter what I do, or how I treat you, you'll always be there for me. I know you'll never leave me. Even though I may walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you'll be by my side, pushing me closer and closer to insanity. You make me accomplish one thing in life: dedication. I am dedicated to nothing more than hating you, with a passion. You're like a dementor, sucking out my will to live.
Dear Hair Dye,
I'm currently kind of annoyed at you. I'm annoyed that I will have to put a fair bit of effort to get my hair back to blond. I tried to dye it tonight, and it got about one shade lighter, a sort of washed out brown. DAMN YOU, Hair Dye.
Dear Weather,
I understand that in Canada, weather is suppose to suck. But seriously, this whole snow, then rain, snow, then rain, snow, then rain thing is grinding on my nerves. Please just snow until spring, when rain doesn't cause hypothermia. The temperature would be nice between -1 and -5 degrees C, to maintain the snow, but not get too cold. Thank you for your consideration.
Dear Holiday Traffic,Just go die in a whole. Just because I'm busy *coughlazycough* and do my Christmas shopping on December 23rd, does not mean that I have to be punished.
Dear Guy from the parking lot today,
Did you even notice the three people sitting in that car you slammed repeatedly with your truck door? Are you that dense? It didn't occur to you,"Hey, maybe I shouldn't slam this truck door into that car again." It may have been a Jetta, but Jettas have feelings too! Sure, people who drive VWs tend to not be very threatening, but hitting a car with your door repeatedly is a douche move, if you didn't notice.
Dear Jersey Shore,
WHY
Figured that I'd do my complaining in letter form.
Cabaret was last night. There's just something more sophisticated about getting dressed up all semi-formal, going to the Delta, and then having all the crazy stuff that is a high school dance happen. I had an extreme amount of fun. I think this was because me and my other dateless friends were perfectly fine with our situation, and we had fun. I greatly enjoy being single. Now, my friends that did have dates... I agree with what Allan yelled down the hallway:"I saw you guys in there! Keep it PG!". My night did have a fair bit of,"Where's *insert name*? OH. *averts eyes*."
After convincing myself that I completely botched my audition and giving up all hope, the cast list came out today. And I made it into the chorus! I'm pretty pumped, because I think that Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat is an awesome musical, despite the lack of girl leads, and I've always kind of wanted to be a drama nerd. Congrats to Moriah for landing a role as a narrator! I sure you'll be, for lack of a better adjective, pretty badass.
I went to the mall today, and literally did nothing but sit in the food court for two hours with Katie, Sam, James, and James' (quiet) Swedish cousin, Will. James and I switched hats for a while, he had a hot pink toque while I felt like a gangster from the 1800's, or Bert from Mary Poppins. A girl from my social studies class somehow found us, and sat with us for a while. It was amusing when she walked up, because due to her hitting on him at cabaret last night, Will seriously tried to hide behind the collar of his jacket.
I have to wrap a bunch of presents tomorrow. And hopefully get my hair to a nicer shade.
Oh, and the last thing: Mom+Me+Coffee=the creation of the sport of "Full contact ice bowling"
That is all.
Love,

Memories.
Today in Social Studies we watched a story that was on 60 minutes Sunday night, about people with memories that can remember everything that ever happened to them. The host picked a date at random from several decades ago, and these people could remember what happened on those days. It also went into details about why we remember certain things. For example, when we hear shocking news, we get an adrenaline rush that causes us to remember things.
There's two dates I can remember from this year.
The first one I can remember is February 22. It was a Monday, and a week before March break. Robin's birthday was that day, it was Sam's birthday the day before. Sam had just transferred to Simonds, and I was left feeling pretty betrayed. It was also the day that my great uncle Elmo died, and it was the day after a kid from Simonds, John Churchill, had died from cancer. I think I remember this date because of all the events happening at once.
The second one is November 29th. I went to the library after school with Moriah to look up topics for our social studies essays, but we didn't actually look up anything. I tried to get internet on my ipod, but we were out of range of the library wi-fi. Moriah began taking pictures with my phone of the Chinese books. We then walked up to Tim Hortons and waited until a bus came. I ate a coconut cream donut and she ate a frosted cinnamon roll. We moved up to Kings Square and waited for the bus there. On the bus, we talked about our childhood crushes. Then I got picked up at the mall by my dad, we got home, and that's where I got the line,"Sit down, we have bad news." I went for about a two hour walk after that.
