Today was pretty good, if working on World History is considered good. After food court and Michael's it was Jason's house for modelling clay madness. I discovered the guinea pigs. They are so much better than hamsters. Mainly because hamsters are nocturnal and don't make any sounds. Of course guinea pigs need more caring. But still. They were exchaging little guinea pig calls. Can hamsters exchange little hamster calls? No. They just sleep on each other in a corner. But still, hamsters are cute in their own right.

I have to try to work projects as consistently as possible to avoid the eventual weekend cram of projects. (Which will probably happen anyway >_<)

Doomsday

So the Latin test turned out for the better. I have to start studying for Certamen hardcore again. It's on Wednesday. That Wednesday will be fun, but not the next. On November 2 I have a World History presentation, which will all be smushed in this weekend again. On November 9 I ahve a Comp Sci test, which won't be too bad.

But then there's November the 10th. That day. Won't be very enjoyable. I have a Chemistry project due. Stupid asthetically pleasing but stuffed with information brochure. Fine. But then there's that Biology Unit Test. I can handle both, since I have a lunch period to brace for Biology. But then there's also that World History Unit test the next period after Biology. Damn.

Then we have our Biology project due the Friday after that. I wouldn't have minded it that much if some of youse teachers would give us projects earlier, and the rest later. But no. Stupid report card deadlines.

K.O.

I knew there was to be some horrible forthcoming test when we skipped 10 chapters in Latin to crazy translations, but I never realised how much it would own me. I didn't study for a whole grammar section because I didn't know it would be on the test, so I probably lost a handful marks there already.

I didn't know that phrase too. I just wasn't as creative.

All the Punies ran away!

I guess I should've have ignored all my homework until today. I think I have a lot to carry back to school tomorrow...

Team America was cool, in that immature humour sort of way. I felt really bad sneaking in, mostly because the whole staff seemed to be gathered outside the theatre as we came out. But then again there was this mom and her 8 year old kid in there...

Ew, Lovecraft's stories are getting more disturbing. I guess I just so happened to read the not-so-disgusting ones first.

Time tells me.

I lost my agenda sometime this weekend and began to panic. Because then I wouldn't know what pages the homework is on and then I'd have to ask people. The horror! But Jason conveniently dropped by the world history room and found it, and according to him Mr. Bower was like "Whatever." I'm just glad Jason found it before some other random person, to whom Mr. Bower's expression would most likely be the same.

To the melody of Love Shack by B-52
I found a faded book on the shelf of the store, that read Madness Within by LOOOOOOOOOVECRAFT! H.P. Lovecraft!
He's a crazy little writer, took a lot of drugs
wrote a lot about monsters and gods and bugs~~
So I bought the the book, it's as big as a whale,
now I've gone mad from the terrifying tale!
It's about Cthulhu, who eats about twenty
but dont't look at its eye, or you'll see plenty!

Ha...

I just realised how un-noticable the Word of the Moment was so I moved it. Yay.

In the Hall of the Mountain King

Lunchtime conversation between Vincent and John Molloy = Gophers and the theory of the evolution of our sexual organs.

Someone composed a song for H.P. Lovecraft using Love Shack by B-52. Laff.

I only found out today that the Latin trivia would be in a week. Maybe I should start studying. *shifty eyes here*

Schooled

It's only funny because it's a real manga of the game.

There are lot of homework and tests coming up. It's sort of depressing thinking about it, so I'll just have to work it off slowly...

The holdays this year are really different. I think the P.A. Day we usually get after Jan exams is pushed ahead, making it redundant. Christmas holday is completely in December, and we go back to school in the beginning of January. Easter is in March...that shouldn't happen. They took away that special Friday we usually get with March Break. :(

First Codified Laws

In Mesopotamia if you were a wife and you disregarded your duties, trashed the house, disrespected your husband and such, you can get "thrown in the water". Also if you are married to a husband but didn't have the proper contracts then, I quote, "You are no wife!" Hummurabi was a genious. Other laws involve oxen goring stuff, and having to actually refer to your children as "your children" in order for them to be recognized your children, if you had children with your wife and your female slave, then it would be the slave's children you should be refering to as your children in order for them to be recognized, so that they can inherit some of your possesions.

Wonderland was today, and it was fun, in that pretty cold weather kind-of-way.

I finally went on Tomb Raider, which was great, and SkyRider, which I just never bothered to go to before. I also tried Shockwave, which had the most confusing and random pattern of all the spinning-y rides.

The Fly was a classic. We were intentionally shouting the whole time, causing a rather small amount of disturbance. (ha) We bought the photo because it was a classic.

It's not recommended going onto White Water Canyon while's it's cold, windy, and raining. Not like us.
