I had choir first...

and now I'm all happy and awake. I got up around 6 and was at the school about twenty-five after seven and we went over Bridge over Troubled Water and In Remembrance from Requiem and quickly over Dry Your Tears Afrika.
I am currently avoiding working in French, we're doing skits about mountain climbing related activities to familiarize ourselves with the vocab before we read Ch 4 of La Neige en Deuil and we have to find definitions then make a skit and use at least 30 of the 40 words on the list in it. Excuse me while I die. *dies*

Anyways, I have Bio next and we're doing the ear and discovering how mature my class is, when Ms Ng told her joke "Prince Charles has large pinnas (said pin-ahs)" we chuckled and thereafter whenever she mentioned the pinna at least someone would laugh. Don't get me start on the cochlea and cochlear duct, so ridiculous.

At lunch we have our second real debate meeting, featuring Anne on vocal hygiene then discussion groups for people going to U of A and to Western, which are at the same time so I won't have to research whether we should make people with "unhealthy lifestyles" pay for their health care!

In Social after lunch we'll write the Chapter 2/3 test and work on our mobiles and maybe present our Chapter summary video on democracies and hand out the associated tests and notes.

Then comes Spare and I'll go get my passport photos taken at Sears then go home and work on homework things.

I'm almost done my passport, all I need is to find my birth certificate so I can write some number from it on the application then get my identity validated by reliable people and then I can send it off with government issued cards and I'll be waiting with anticipation for the passport to come.

Dad was scoping flights for Stuttgart for the end of November and if we catch this seat sale we can get four people onto a flight from Calgary to Frankfurt, two hour lay-over in Frankfurt, then a 45 min flight to Stuttgart and basically the same thing back. I am le excited. :-D

Anyhow, I'm going to maybe consider doing some work for French, even though we have until next Monday to prepare for it so really work isn't entirely necessary at this time but suggested I guess.

Bye all!
Me.

I felt...

the Terry Fox assemblies Erica and I co-mced went rather well today. And the Leaders' Debate for our "election" was fun.
Thailand has the crazy for their military coup while the Prime Minister was off in New York to address the UN General Assembly.
Also, WTF with the Hungarian PM admitting to lying during the last election and posting the script of the recording at a closed-door party meeting on his blog?
And yeah, basically the world has the crazy.
Oh oh oh, Sam, Pete, Kees, Trevor, MP and I went over to Branton over lunch to show and tell Branton kids why they should join Debate at Branton and come to Abe too. T'was good fun.

Must go sleep for sickness afflicts me.

Bye for now,
Me.

After looking at the SUNIA photobucket....

and the recent flashbacks and cravings for the food, even from a certain dinner, I realize how much I miss it.

One More Thing!!!!

The make-up of the Germany Team this year has been finally determined, well mostly, I'm confused about one part but I'm sure I'll eventually get an explanation for it!!!
To represent Aberhart and Canada (as either Canada A or B) will be: Erin, Georgeanne, Kate, Kevin and myself.
I'll have more details Tuesday after the meeting to figure out the schedule and such definitively.

Til later,
Me.

Back after popular debate, my blog will have a real update.

Hello all. It's me! No, I haven't died or moved to a cabin in the backwoods without internet access, I just haven't really been inspired to update lately.
So, let's see... School's going pretty well: I have three classes with Kate so either we're going to drive each other nuts or get along really well or some permutation of such conditions, we share Social first, Spare second and Bio third, she has Chem last and I have French last. It's quite handy, actually, to not always have to know what class I have next because I can turn to Kate and we can usually figure it out between the two of us. And Social is just generally awesome, we watched a movie Thursday and Friday that featured a very very strange "game show" with the "contestants" being representatives of different ideologies (Absolute monarchy, Representative democracy, Communism, Socialism and Fascism) and yeah. It was very... unique. The Communist rep had a peculiar way of speaking that featured her pronouncing each syllable almost, very Shatner-singing-esque, while the Socialist was extraordinarily enthusiastic about everything and frequently couldn't contain her excitement and would flail her arms around and clap and bounce up and down and then the occasional shit-disturber Anarchy guy would come through and rant and rave and then run off stage.
My Bio teacher is very organized and has her own website which she posts many of her notes and links to animations and things on, which can show you what's happening so the manner that a nerve impulse travels down a neuron makes at least somewhat more sense than zero.
And I have Bandol but good friends in my class so we manage to not slam our heads on our desks too often, though her complete incomprehensibility and astronomically high heels are distracting.
Anyways, Kate's on her way to work on our video for Social and Georgeanne will be coming in about a half hour along with Sean and Gaby and assorted peoples to work on our video and alternately prepare posters for Take Back The Night tonight, which I'm very excited for, and I'm going to go eat some food to be able to be all energetic later on.
So, hopefully this update will keep the crazies pacified for a while.

Until then, bye!
Me.
