I finally submitted all my stuff for the writing competition today-
And had two tests.
I feel quasi relieved!
And now, to make plans for the weekend...I guess.
Nothing really to say, on this most auspicious of days.
*collapses*
Had philisophical arguement today...yay!
Made five dollars for tutoring Hally in Physics...yay!
Had World History today...YAY!
People like my changes to the film noir script...YAY!
I saw two of my old friends Carolyn Campbell and Georgia Brook from HC on the subway after I'd decided to
take the bus to Eglinton with Amy today, rather than going via Saint Clair West.
I'll try to unhermit myself this weekend...yay?
Ah. Oh the mundaneness of life.
I tend to complain that nothing "interesting" occurs in my life-
But when the "interesting" (read: not so nice things to deal with) occur...
I absolutely hate it.
I suppose it's the fact that we are never satisfied when we suffer from ennui.
Huh-freaking-zah.
But it feels like a slightly offbeat new wave funk song.
I've been getting into really quirky new wave-lately...just fits with my state of being.
Wootenany.
Oh my stars...
Yayness.
I get to see the musical soon, I honestly can't wait to hear Becky sing in it- I am fully convinced that she's going to be fabulous (and they kept my costume suggestions, even though I quit.).
It's almost March Break which fills me with such joy- I'm going to go on a sewing rampage.
...And now I have a philisophical discussion to go to...err...I mean guitar lesson.
Also, I am getting a Speaker's Union Hoodie (yes, I am a proud member of the debate club) as well as a Model UN shirt.
I am such a political keener, no?
But we've got to start on the book for Helikon...dammit!
So BSSers who want to submit stories/poetry/art/etc...plleeeease submit...*pointedly stares at Raven*.
Edit:
So my guitar teacher says:
"Oh I don't need advice from you, missy- I've had more ups and downs and experiences than you can even fathom?"
So I says to him, I say:
"I may not have had as many life experiences as you, but I can make a damn good cheesecake."
And we laughed for the longest while.
And life was good.
Tonight, I could see the stars outside.
I love staring at the stars-it reminds me of the finiteness and infiniteness of the universe.
I wish I could fall asleep in my backyard, but alas in Canada.
IT'S TOO COLD.
