Sonics a-plenty

I am now in possession of THREE sonic screwdrivers. Thankfully each of them is different. I have a 9th/10th Doctor one, a River Song one, and an 11th Doctor one. My mom got me (and Aki!) the 10th Doctor one, my dad got me the River one, and Linda got me the 11th Doctor one. My mom got me one because she was on Think Geek and I saw it and was like Aki wants that, and so do I, so she was like "Okay I'll get you both one" Then I felt bad because I didn't want to make her pay for it, so I payed for one. Then I had mentioned the River one to Jessie and said I may want it, so she told my dad who had asked her for gift ideas for me, so I got that one too. Then somehow Linda found out about how much I liked Doctor Who and ended up getting me the 11th Doctor one, along with an EPIC barometer, which I will post about later. So, now I somehow have 3 sonic screwdrivers. I'm not complaining, I am just stating. I also got some awesome Doctor Who shirts. And, since this entry is so short, I'll include some pictures:

SONICS!

SHIRT! (With some wonderful Hitchhiker's Guide books in the background)

I don't have the polos here, so here's a link to them, I got the black Dalek one and the navy TARDIS one.

And since I haven't actually gotten this one yet, I'll post the web link to it. TARDIS space program shirt


And to think I only became a whovian a few months ago...Now I have all of this stuff! It's awesome!

So as you may or may not know, my sister is in town. That's great. There's only one problem. She cares about being with her friends more than being with me. I really want to hang out with her. She hangs out with me in between being with her friends. For example, if she was doing something with someone from 6-9, then something with someone from 930-fuckifiknow o'clock, she would only hang out with me between 9 and 930, even though for most of these plans she has the ability to change the time if she wants. She just doesn't want to, she cares about them more. Or when she comes back at like 1:30 AM, she says we should watch some DW, and then after one episode she gets "tired" and says she's going to bed. Then I go and I see her in her room on her computer for the next hour and a half. I end up going to bed before her in those situations normally.

It's just kind of annoying how she doesn't have me as a priority ever. I mean I understand not always having me as a priority, she has to have her friends there sometimes, but it's the fact that she never does which annoys me and makes me kind of sad. I know that if the situations were reversed, I would definitely make time for her. But, she'd rather go out and get drunk and high with her friends. I guess that's more fun than being with her brother.

Why I don't game

ALL OF MY FUCKING FRIENDS PLAY VIDEO GAMES!! ALL OF THEM!! It's actually kind of annoying how much of a thing it is to them. And then I get shit from some of them over how much I love Doctor Who and stuff while they love their video games JUST AS MUCH IF NOT MORE!

But the question we're trying to answer here is why I don't play.

Here are the reasons I've gotten:

1. I know FOR A FACT that if I liked one, I would get addicted. - I'm horrible at managing my time, and if I had video games to distract me, my grades would go down to like 0s all the time because I would never get work done. That needs to not happen okay? I already procrastinate enough

2. I also don't really see the appeal of them - They don't do anything incredibly constructive. They just don't seem fun to me.

3. Other people - When you enter into the world of video games, you obviously have other people there. I don't like talking to other people (like actually, I'm AFRAID to as you all know from reading mah blawg). And also everyone will be like comparing their scores and shit to yours and since I generally suck at video games, I will inevitably feel inferior.

4. Money - video games cost money. You know what I don't have? Money. My parents (ESPECIALLY MY FATHER) hate to buy me things unless it's a holiday, so that's a problem. I don't want to be playing the same games over and over again or whatnot.

5. Fuck all of you I don't want to play bitches - I think this reason speaks for itself

And that, my lovely humans, is why I do not play video games. You may think I'm some sort of mutant crazy savage beast, but it's the truth. I am quite sorry, but please stop trying to get me to play.



P.S. Since it's break, I have gotten a very nice break from games. This entry was actually just a random idea I had, and wasn't really brought on by anything. But, when I get back to school, I know I will have to see those fucking games again. Why...merrr.

Ouch

So, apparently Mickey was not trained the way all 6 of my other dogs were. You cannot touch him while he is eating, or he will bite the fuck out of you. And he did bite the fuck out of me. My entire left thumb from the bottom of my nail to the middle of the knuckle has a gash in it which is bleeding like a mofo. It also hurts a lot. I do not like dogs who bite. I get nervous around them and then have no idea what to do. I like my other four dogs who you can do anything with and they don't really give a fuck. I would say return him but that's just not fair. But this is a real problem that isn't good at all. My thumb would also add that it would prefer to not be bleeding and stop hurting so much.



Why am I bleeding so much.

Things I wish Clara was

We have no idea who this mysterious Clara is from the Christmas special of Doctor Who, only that she exists in multiple places in time as the same, but different, person.

Here are some things I wish she was but know she isn't:
1. JENNY!!! I really wish Clara was Jenny, the mysterious daughter of the Doctor from Series 4.

2. Susan Foreman! The Doctor's granddaughter from the first seasons of the classic series. She could be a newly regenerated form of her that somehow escaped the timelocked Gallifrey.

3. Romanadvoratrelundar. If Clara were somehow a regeneration of Romana that escaped the timelock somehow, that would just be EPIC. Jenna would actually have made a good actress for Romana if she had somehow been actressing back in the 1970s, so it doesn't seem too far out that Clara could have some how been Romana and had forgotten (in some strange Doctor Who way) that she was a Time Lord. That would have been awesome!

4. I rather liked my theory and was proud of myself that I came up with it, so if I had been right that would have been awesome too.


But what they did with her is AWESOME as well!




Run. Run you clever boy...and remember.

My computer sucks

Well, I can't watch anymore videos online or do anymore video calls because my computer is stupid. I have no fucking clue what's wrong. It just doesn't work. Every time I attempt to watch a video, it works for the first few seconds, and then it starts lagging like crazy. And whenever I try to video chat with anyone it works for the first few seconds and then I start swedishing. This doesn't happen on any of the other computers in my house, only mine. It's really fucking annoying. I've tried everything to fix it, and nothing works. I've posted on various places on the internet asking for help, and no one has any idea what the fuck is going on. I don't want to have to take it to the apple store and potentially get a new computer, but I may have to. FUCK EVERYTHING. Mehhh this really sucks I hate when my computer stops working. Welp, time to back up and schedule a genius bar appointment...merrr.

NEW DOCTOR WHO IN LESS THAN 6 HOURS

JKHDLSAJKHL YAY!!! Also, I just found this picture, it's funny how true it is. SHERLOCK WHY MUST YOU NOT BE AIRING UNTIL 2014!? WHY DO YOU HATE US SO MUCH???

Anyway, I'll either update this entry or make a new one after I watch new Who.

Also, Merry Holidays to anyone reading! I'm Jewish, and since it's Christmas, tonight is going to consist of Chinese food with my dad, sister, and sister's college roommate (I get to meet her for the first time, Jessie is quite excited about that for some reason), and Doctor Who. But to anyone celebrating: Enjoy! Have a wonderful holiday season!

I've decided I'm going to just edit this entry:

SPOILERS!!! AKI DO NOT READ THIS PART!!!

BAHH I JUST DIED OF GENIUS OVERLOAD

Ohmygod. That was good. That was so good. I love Clara. She is now my favorite companion. EMAJKDSHAKSDJ. I WAS WRONG BUT ALSO RIGHT!!! They aren't "the same" person per se, but they are. Clara Oswin Oswald. That is BRILLIANT! Fucking Stephen Moffat. Run you clever boy, and remember. HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT WAS AMAZING!! I love what they're doing with "Clara Oswald." That's just amazing. The girl twice dead. I don't even fucking know. IT NEEDS TO BE APRIL NOW!!! I NEED TO KNOW WHO CLARA IS!!! Clara Oswin Oswald. I can't get over the GENIUS involved in this. STEPHEN MOFFAT I OFFICIALLY LOVE YOU!! CLARA WHO ARE YOU!? APRIL CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH!!! MEHRAJKSAHDKLSAHFAAD I NEED MORE DOCTOR WHO!!!

Clara Oswin Oswald. That is just genius. I can't stop going over it in my mind. That is just amazing. Clara Oswin Oswald. I love it. I fucking love it. Clara Oswin Oswald.

Herp derp

So, I've been bored recently. It's winter break, so I don't have to go to school, but I also have nothing else really to do. I was invited ice skating today, but (I hope Rohun never reads this) I made up an excuse to get out of it because I didn't want to go because I fail at ice skating and the people who were going were too random. My sister and I ended up watching 3 episodes of Doctor Who, so it was all good (for me at least). Now I'm bored and don't really know what to do. It's almost Christmas! You know what that means? NEW DOCTOR WHO!!!! Yay!

But for the time being I'm just kind of being here with nothing to do. Boredom is annoying, but still better than school.


Why am I making this post when I have nothing to say...well I hope you all enjoyed my randomness

Also, I've started using Google Chrome now. Don't really know why. It's...interesting. I feel like I should be using Safari though. I feel like a traitor.

P.S. I'm apparently a swedish helicopter now.
P.P.S. WHAT IS THIS INFLUX OF VIEWS ON THIS BLOG!?? ARE PEOPLE ACTUALLY READING THIS?!
P.P.P.S. THE VIEWS ARE STILL INCREASING WHAT IS THIS?!? They all seem to be using Macs and are on Chrome...Seems like my friends.....Maybe it is....hmmm....mehhh
P.P.P.P.S. They seem to have stopped now...hmmmm...
P^5.S IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN!!! WHAT IS GOING ON!?! I'm not actually freaking out, but I am curious as to whom is reading. If, in fact, it is one of my friends, please tell me :P
P^6.S. At the rate this it's going, this entry is going to be the most viewed entry on this blog. WHO IS READING THIS REPEATEDLY!?
P^7.S. I'm an idiot. It was me the whole time....I somehow turned "track my pageviews" (as in it adds a pageview whenever I view it) back on. It's somewhat sad though...I wish it was someone else... :(... :P

Things I wish I could post but can't

Right now there is a thing I really want to post about, because I really need to talk to someone about it, but I can't because there is some information in it that is not mine to make public. I would talk to a friend, but I have no idea how to go about asking them for help. Yes, this post is awkward, but I do not know what else to say. I really want to make a post about this, but I can't for ethical reasons.


THIS IS NOT AN URGENT PROBLEM WITH ME. IT IS A (big) PROBLEM I HAVE WITH MY FAMILY. 

Ahhh new dog

GUESS WHAT?!? I'm potentially getting a 5th dog. It's like 98% going to happen. It all depends on Zuni, who can be a douchebag when meeting other dogs. But this new dog is SO CUTE!!! His name is Happy, but we're renaming him to Mickey (after Mickey Smith from Doctor Who). He is a rescue dog, so we don't know how old he is or what kind of dog he is, but we think he's a poodle mix of some sort. Here, have some pictures:

The cone is because he just got neutered and was picking at his stitches. BUT ISN'T HE ADORABLE?!

Annoyance

I have annoyances. They are varied in degree and type, but I have them

Here they are in no specific order:

1. THINK GEEK DENIED MY RETURN REQUEST!!! What??? I got the wrong thing in the mail and they aren't letting me return it to get the right thing. I don't even know. I really wanted that thing!! I don't want this gryffindor scarf...I want my Doctor Who T-shirt!! I just don't even understand this. You guys fucking screwed up and then you don't let anyone fix it. I just don't even understand why...
UPDATE: This happened while writing this, but I'll pretend like it didn't. Apparently the people who denied the request were very new and did it wrong. My mom called and got it straightened out. They're sending us the correct thing free and we get to keep the scarf. Jessie is incredibly happy about that.

2. This week is going by too slowly. I keep thinking it's the day after it actually is. Like I thought yesterday was wednesday and today was thursday and when I realize it's not I'm sad because Friday is another day away.

3. Señor is giving us a quiz on friday. He is doing this because we asked if friday could be a more fun class, and he said "Yes, it can be my kind of fun. I think I'll give you guys a quiz" No...just no. It's things like this which make me not want to take Spanish next year. Señor is just getting on my nerves and it needs to stop.

4. Dr. Andy is having us put together a mock trial for Galileo in less than a day and then we have a quiz the next day on IDs we just got on Monday. What?! I don't like history anyway, and now history is being unreasonable...anger.

5. Stuff. Vague stuff. Stuff with stuff things. Stuff kind of stuff that's annoying.

SO CLOSE TO FRIDAY YET FRIDAY IS SO FAR AWAY!!! MERRR

In which I panic about my future

I am not going to succeed in astronomy, which is the one thing I want to do with my life. Not one bit. Want to know why? Because I am not good at math. I mean I'm not horrible at it, but I'm not, by any stretch of the word, good at it. The problem is that I NEED to be good at it. If I can't do math, then I can't do astronomy. If I can't do astronomy, then my entire future is ruined. I seriously have no idea what I want to do with my life if I don't go into astronomy.

Math is a subject that I have a complicated relationship with. I'm good at it sometimes. Sometimes (a lot of the time) I suck at it. I can't do math under pressure at all (not even simple math), which is why I do so badly on math quizzes/tests. I'm just bad at anything under pressure though. Even simple things like reading and writing. I can't do them if there is any pressure on me. If I am given time to figure things out, I can generally do math. Another thing that helps me understand is to work backwards. If you give me the answer, and then tell me why and how you got it, then I always understand it better than just through example problems. But, math class isn't set up the way I want. We move fast through things and the teacher sucks. If I end the year with a B I will be surprised.

But, there's a problem there. I can't get a B in math. I need to do well, incredibly well, in math to succeed in what I want to do. I don't see myself succeeding in math right now...which means that I won't succeed in astronomy. Which means that I have to re-think my entire future.

Ever since I discovered astronomy, I never thought I would want to do anything else with my life. But, if I do not have the skills to be able to do professional astronomy, I HAVE to think of something else to do. The problem is...what? There isn't a single thing I love to do more than astronomy, and if I can't pursue that as my future...then what is my future anyway?

I really need to re-think some things right now...

I hate change

Hi everyone. This is a random entry that has nothing to do with real life, only with like my brain and subconscious and stuff, and those things like to worry, a lot. Probably too much, but I can't help it.

So, I have friends. At this point, they feel like stable friends. But, one of them said something the other day that worried the fuck out of me: Your friends change.

As in you have some friends sometimes, and then they go off and be friends with other people. This actually happens, I've seen it happen with my sister. She was BEST FRIENDS with this girl Lisa, and then around the end of her junior year, they just stopped. It was because my sister started hanging out with some people who Lisa didn't like. The fact that Jessie chose them over her kind of makes me wonder some things. If best friends can just chose people who new people over their best friends, it just makes me worry. What if my friends do this to me?

I don't want this to happen to me. This can't happen to me. I don't want my friends to go. I had so much trouble making friends, and I don't think I could do it again. I'm already seeing it start to happen now. New people are becoming friends with our group and I'm starting to feel like "What am I doing here?" No one there shares any of my main interests and it's all weird and such. I miss last year, like a lot. Most likely, by the end of the year, things will be a lot different. Then, by senior year, my friends will most likely be entirely different people...if I have any at all. I don't want them to stop being my friends, but apparently these things happen. But, I don't want it to happen to me.


Sorry if this made no sense. I don't think I conveyed what I was thinking very well. Sorry. But I hate change, just get that. Merrrhhhh


I end with this:

Friends

What r u doing

Friends

Stahp

I ruin things

Warning: vague

I ruin things. I really do. It was a good idea to try and make it work but of course I ruined it. I was happy for it to work, and then I go and ruin it. Yay...not. Sadness. I should stop doing things.

I need to stop thinking about things that have been said. Fuck all of this. I get way too insecure about myself sometimes and what I do. I need a break from people for a while. One more week...


Also I hate emotions.


Sorry for vagueness



P.S. Now to completely change the subject, the package has finally gotten to the post office. Potentially it will be delivered tomorrow. Yay
P.P.S. Aki should tell me whether or not I won the plaid contest thingy. Also you haven't been commenting recently so you should do that too.

I hate shipping #firstworldproblems

So apparently there is this new thing in the shipping world that combines UPS and USPS. It's called UPS SurePost or somefuck like that. So things were ordered from the internet, and shipped really quickly (surprisingly quickly) via UPS and it said the scheduled delivery date was 12/13/12. Yesterday, the package was apparently delivered to the local post office for delivery. So now they're delivering it? Wut. I assumed it would still come today, but the USPS tracking number I was given says they haven't even received the package NOW. IT SAID IT WAS DELIVERED TO THEM YESTERDAY. I hope it gets here before I go back to my dad's saturday night. What bugs me the most is that it moved from Columbus, OH to Pittsburgh in less than a day, and now it's in Pittsburgh and hasn't moved for more than a day...this is just bugging me so much. MERR

I know this could be considered me being impatient, and it is. But it's also the stupidity of it all. The post office is a few blocks from here, and they still haven't delivered it? IT'S IN FUCKING PITTSBURGH YOU COULD HAVE JUST DROVE TO MY HOUSE AND GIVEN IT TO ME. There is a chance it could come tomorrow, but at the rate it's going I don't think it will. This is why they need to invent teleportation. Then when you order something they teleport it to you. It would save money too, so it's a win-win situation. If only quantum physics didn't get in the way of everything.

Yes, Aki, this package includes your present. But it also includes some of my Chanukah presents. And, apparently from what I've read about surepost on the internet, it could be a while before you get your present, if it comes at all. I've read some about how many people's packages get lost this way. I hope it comes before winter break, but if not, I'll give it to you at driver's ed or something. Sorry!

In other happier news, I had like no classes today. I had math, then glass, then English. Normally today I would have had a double free after that, then chemistry after lunch, then a free last. But, Mr. Marx wasn't here again today (technically he was, but he started feeling really sick before lunch and then went home, so he didn't get to our class!), so I had a quadruple free for the last 4 periods. It was wonderful. I was even somewhat productive! We finished our chemistry lab! But, for most of it, I was just derping on my computer. Yay! If only winter break started tomorrow...but sadly we still have another week. Sadness :(. But, Jessie comes back on Saturday! Yay! I'm excited for that! Anyway, tomorrow is an event schedule so that sucks.

Hopefully the package comes at some point.

I don't even know what to write

Hi all. I have no idea what to write about today. Today was incredibly average. The only exciting thing was that Mathieu and I started the Dalek. Though that was pretty awesome. The mirrored glass we're using is gold, and it is basically the EXACT color of the Daleks in DW. Though we couldn't find any yellowish-gold beads for the balls, so they have to be blue. I think it will look interesting though. I'm excited! Also, fucking chemistry. There is one concept I don't fully get yet, and it has a perfect simulator for it, and all I need to do is mess around with the simulator to understand it. Guess what? The simulator is broken. I have tried everything to get it to work, other than switching operating systems, which isn't really an option anyway. Though, as I wrote that sentence I did just think of something: I have a double free tomorrow, and I think I'll try one of the computers in the library and see if it works. I hope it does.

EDIT: I just got it to work on my mom's computer. I have 2 reactions to that:
1. Yay!
2. Wtf?

The amount of teacher related annoyance is immense

What teachers am I annoyed at and why? I shall tell you:

1. Señor - Why am I annoyed at Señor? Because he is Señor, that should be enough. There are actual reasons too. The grammar quiz today was supposed to be on like 8 different verb tenses, and that we didn't have to know the past subjunctive...guess what 1/4 of the quiz was? Past subjunctive! And then the other part was indicatives vs. subjunctives and it was annoying. I spent most of my time studying the tenses I barely knew, like the present perfect and past perfect and future and stuff. I didn't realize there was going to be anything about indicative vs. subjunctive. WHY!??!? I failed that. And then he added a part on the end which was give a two paragraph alternate ending to the story we just read. Why? Because no one understood the story, so he gave us a quiz. His exact words were: I think this reading was a bit difficult for you guys, I think I should give you a quiz. I HATE teachers who do that, as I've said. Merrr

2. Mr. Hallas - Why him? Because he's just a bad teacher in general. But also, he's giving us a quiz right after we just had a quiz, and then a test next friday. WHICH IS THE DAY BEFORE WINTER BREAK WTF!!!

3. Dr. Sanders - Too much work at once. I'm not annoyed at this only because we're the class that barely gets any work, I would be annoyed at this amount of work at once anyway! We have other classes too, not just English. Merrrr

In other news, I finished my parrot! Yay! Dalek time tomorrow!

MORE AKI STUFF:
1. Fix your phone. I'm going to remind you until you do. Also, I'm not going to give you the surprise until you do. Hehehe incentives
2. Read Sarah's blog. I don't know whether or not you've been wondering what happened and why she made that random hiatus post, but now she explained, and it's a lot worse than I thought.
3. Provided you fix your phone beforehand, I now know what day I will have the surprise, Friday. Also, in case you haven't figured it out, the surprise is going to be your Christmas present, not like some random magical other thing.

Dr. Sanders, why so much work??

This is annoying. We're getting so much work for English this week! We have to re-do our essays from our finals by thursday, and by wednesday we have to write a 2 page mock hero epic. I don't even fucking know. I would be okay with these assignments if they didn't happen at the exact same time. I don't want to write about Beowulf anyway! Merr. Also the mock hero epic has to be ABOUT US. It has to be a satire type thing where we take a mundane situation and make it super duper exciting. But we have to make the language like Beowulf, with kennings and stuff. This is going to be a lot harder than she thinks. She was going to give us more time, but she got annoyed with some people at the end of class, so she didn't. I thought our class was supposed to be the one without all the work!!! Merrr.

Also, 2 things to communicate to Aki:
1. Fix your phone! Just do it...please? Texting is so much easier than emailing, and apparently my emails don't even get to you most of the time, which is why I am resorting to this!
2. Expect a surprise from me at some point within the next week or so...Don't worry, it's a good surprise!

Happy Chanukah!

It's Chanukah in a few hours, so that means presents. Tonight I'm probably not going to get anything, but it's still Chanukah, so that's fun.

Sadly I have to go to another dinner at a family friend's. This time it's going to be even more awkward than thanksgiving. Why? 2 main reasons:
1. Jessie isn't there
2. There is another guy my age...I'm horrible at talking to people my age unless they are my friends. Why...why must I have to do this.
I'm most likely going to have a terrible time tonight and merr. I hate social situations. Why must I be put in them so often? I barely know this kid. If only I had the ability to socialize. MERRRRRR. I just hate socializing. A lot. Can't I be happy with the friends I have right now?

Wish me luck

My average day and stuffs

Hello all. Today wasn't incredibly noteworthy. Some small things happened, but nothing like mind blowing.

My day started with school. First period was my free that none of my friends had, so I finished up my English homework and was on reddit for the rest of the time. Then second period I had another free, but this one was the one with friends, even though I couldn't find most of them, and the ones I could find were playing video games. So I was on reddit for the whole time again. I had no problem with that.  Then math, then history (even though Dr. Andy wasn't there we still had to be in class...even though the other class didn't. WTF Dr. Andy?), then Chem, in which we built molecules, which was incredibly fun, even though Noah was a cheater, and kept being correct. Then lunch happened. I studied for Spanish while everyone else talked. Then I had Spanish...and Señor FORGOT ABOUT THE QUIZ!!! LOLOLOLOL. It was awesome. He came in and started talking about the story we are supposed to read for Monday, and none of us stopped him because obviously none of us wanted to take a quiz, then at the end of the class Bobby asked Señor "What happened to the quiz?" and Señor started slapping himself on the wrist and swearing in Spanish. He was looking at the quiz for the entire class period because it was in his book, but he still managed to forget about it. Woot! Then I had glass. Noah and Rohun came because their speech class was cancelled. Noah soldered some stuff, and Rohun had a lot of fun cutting glass. I finished gluing my parrot too! Now I need to grout it next class and I'm done with that motherfucker! THEN I BEGIN LE DALEK!!!

So that was my day. It wasn't incredibly exciting, but it wasn't a bad day. One of my friends wasn't in school though, and I was (and still am) worried about that friend. That friend says that my worrying only adds stress to the friend's (I am avoiding pronouns to not give away any hints on who this friend is) life and I should stop, but I don't really think that's possible. This friend is one of my best friends and I care a lot about them, so the worrying will continue. Now this friend isn't responding to texts or facebooks, so it's getting a bit worse...merrr.


P.S. Aki, fix your phone. Just reminding you

What the hell was I thinking?

Actually though. Squash? What? Why? How? Who? When? What? WHAT THE FUCK?

What made me sign up for it? Why did I think it was going to be a good idea? It wasn't. At all. For one, I sucked. A lot. Like more than anyone ever. For two, the coach hated me. He picked on me way more than he should have and I wanted to chop his fucking nuts off. MERRR. And for three, I didn't have a single moment of practice in which I had fun. Not one. I know that sounds harsh and like an exaggeration, but it really isn't. I hated every second. Every fucking second. I sucked at the sport, and it just wasn't fun.

Guess what? I'm quitting. Yay! I realized that PE isn't that bad. Coach C is awesome (and doesn't have a crazy accent that no one can understand and then proceed to get angry when I can't understand what the fuck he is saying), and I have people in the class 3rd trimester anyway. So, I'll be fine. The only problem is I have to give up 3 of my 5 double frees. :( I'll survive though, it's not like it's the end of the world, and it's a whole lot better than continuing squash.

It was an interesting idea that ended in a blaze fucking flames and shit, and I will never think of doing a sport again. PE FTW!!!

On a COMPLETELY separate note, I'm very glad I have an understanding family. I just read something about a father DISOWNING his daughter and cutting her contact with her entire family because she is an atheist. My dad isn't happy about my beliefs (or lack thereof) but he still loves me and accepts me as his son. I'm very glad about that. I'm also glad my friends who are religious don't care about the fact that I am an atheist and accept me for who I am as a person, and not what I believe in.

Also Aki where were you in school today?? I had to go through another math class all alone :( But we got to use fun calculators

Bahhh squash

What. Why did I do this? Why the hell am I so nervous for this? I really am though. I know the basics of how to play: ball against wall. But application of knowledge is something completely different. I'm going to die. Also, there are other people there. That makes it more annoying. MERRR. I hate other people. I'm going to do horribly.

Wish me luck, I'll update on how it went later if I'm still alive.

Decorative Glass just got 20x more awesome

So last week, we decided that Mathieu would join my glass class to make a Dalek (Doctor Who robot monster majigger). Today he made the sketch and realized that it was rather complicated, but he still wanted to do it. So, guess what? He enlisted my help! Now all I have to do is finish my parrot, which surprisingly I'm almost done with (I'm one of the first to be putting pieces on the board), and then we begin our epic Dalek creation! We've decided that we're going to be making it out of colored mirror glass, which is going to look amazing. A Dalek mirror? How awesome is that going to be? If only we could make two of them, that would be nice, but he already said he wanted to keep it. Though actually I think he should since I have no idea what I'd do with it. Now I get to have a friend in the class and be making some fun art. I'm excited to see how this will turn out. Expect some pictures in the (far) future, when we're done with it!
