Raymer's Wood

Went to get report cards today. Was a mass of non-air-conditioned fun. I was confused because the "A-F" line wasn't visible from the back of the line, so I kinda tagged onto the "G-L" line. Later I learned that if I went in from the other entrance there was an easier chance to cut a lot of the line. Oh well.

Player's Best Long

Monday's was Frankie's. It was very Italian-y, and it was generally agreed that the calamari was the best. As opposed to the singing Frankie on their website.

Yesterday was officially the last day of high school. Buuut nothing really special happened. Except maybe when Arthur showed up with a box of popsicles. Went to Zaheer's house afterwards.

Denouement

Finished.

Two month wait until university begins. Exciting.
My brain is too tired to think about anything to type right now.

For future reference...

Mathematical Induction and Physical Conduction

School. Lots. Sucks. Busy.

How To Cage A Lion

According to the Schrodinger Method, I might not be in the actual school during my physics exam. Or something.

She Sells Seychelles by the Seashore

Summer was all, "Oops, it's my turn," and so now it's all hot and sunny. Yarr.

In the World Desk Reference (2004) I have, you get the hard facts on the state of some countries of the world. And it's usually depressing.
I mean, just economy-wise:

Afghanistan
Strengths: Very few, apart from illicit opium trade. Revalued currency issued in 2002. Overseas assets unfrozen from 2002.
Weaknesses: Decades of fighting: infrastructure, agriculture, and industry in ruins. Communication links damaged by earthquakes and devastated by bombing. Aid slow to materialize.

Somalia
Strengths: Very few. Export of livestock to Arabian peninsula resumed in the north. Inflow of money from Somalis abroad. Growing market in stolen food aid.
Weaknesses: Every commodity, except arms, in extremely short supply. Little economic potential in the south. Livestock destroyed by drought. Banditry, extortion, and kidnapping hamper aid agencies.

And the like. Meanwhile, back in Canada:

Weaknesses: Problems of competitiveness: higher taxes, more regulations, low productivity relative to NAFTA; other threats from globalization. Vulnerable to price fluctuations for raw material exports. Brain drain of professionals heading south.

Eeps, we are losing our brains to the U.S., and that's pretty sad. :(

On another note, from India's economic weaknesses:

The prestige of Bollywood has been damaged by allegations of underworld connections.

I had to look up the definition of "underworld". =\

I have pressure!

Lots and lots of crap coming up basically every day these next few weeks. I hate you so much, most of June.

In terms of the movies I saw the last week, I felt that The Emperor's Club had really good casting, and The DaVinci Code had not-so-good casting. The Emperor's Club also reflected the concept of karma consistently throughout the movie.

...yeah.

Glasses Glasses

I just watched all the clips of the Breakfast Club episode of X-Play. Sooooo good. ._O

I started playing Kingdom Hearts 2, borrowed from Arthur.

Prom was on Friday:

It was decent. Food wasn't.
Spiffy formalwear.
Slideshow was decent. Stupid chandelier.

I didn't know why early on the DJ kept interrupting songs instead of waiting in-between songs.

*music playing -
DJ: EXCUSE ME, COULD THE OWNER OF A RED TOYOTA PLEASE COME TO THE FRONT DOOR, YOUR CAR HAS JUST EXPLODED, THANK YOU.
