Thursday: the count-down is official
Posted Mar 10, 2005
1 full day.
So here I was lifting a heavy ten pound weight when our trainer took it away. I was happy to be rid of the cumbersome thing, and thanked him for his mercy until he returned with a basketball for me. All right. A b-ball, how heavy could that be?
I lifted and it was very heavy; my sore arms gave out and seemed to be pulled out of the sockets. I glanced aghasted at it and began whining a lot about the weight.
He let my go one for a while, then quietly informed me that because of the strenous workout the day before, he judged it best for me to start the routine with an eight pound ball instead of the ten pounds that I was used to.
What a joke. 
Anyhow, moving on.
I made a culture for fruitflies with the biology teacher at lunchtime for my sister's tree frogs. It was pretty easy and fun, though I spilt some oatmeal. First you pour two small cups of flaky white oatmeal into the glass jar, then you water it (tranformation: blue dye to tell apart the fruitflies from their food!) sprinkle two pinches of yeast on and hah you're all done with the food.
Use a little net frame to place gently (like a fence) in the jar for the husks, then cork it with something that will allow gas exchange and presto, a may fly's haven!
I must have too much time. They'll hatch. In a week or so I suppose.
Cheers

Today I outdid myself.
In fact, I didn't even do much, except maybe going for the same volleyball as this guy and getting wacked with his body weight. It felt like being carried by a train, and stories of me getting knocked down spread until the end of the school day.
What a week it's been.
Anyhow, I've been multi-tasking between A Tale of Two Cities and MacBeth (not to mention chem homework) so imagine my surprise when I picked up to read Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency that I found out why the characters sounded so familiar in MacBeth!
Mr. Cawley (thane of), Mrs. Sunderland the woman with french accent missing her cat (King of the place), and Richard MACDUFF (the main char)!!
My life is complete. I love Douglas Adams.
I will drive myself insane someday.
Two days until the SAT's. I shall wilt.
G'day, darlings.

Yay first of all, I'm extremely pround to say that I do know the day of the week, hence the subj. Let's move on shall we?
Anyway, the morning started off as a beautiful prospect... We burned stuff in Chemistry!! It was the flame test for line emissions and all that but we got to mess with (ahhh) fire !
In gym, the oh so despised class, we had to do 3 sets of 12 modified (for the girls anyway) push-ups. If I was the desperate kind, I'd use steroids but I'm not, thankfully.
So on and so forth, it started snowing during the first block and then stopped while I was trying to drop dead playing volleyball (and getting hit by the ball) I used to duck but since last year I was kicked in the face instead of merely on the head, I decided to just face the music.
Since the blizzard stopped 
I am stuck here typing. Boy what a social life.
Speaking social life, I just got asked to go to the movies (yay cinemas) by my friend after the sats which are looming up very rapidly 3 days left!!
I'm breaking down now, cya

Let's start slow and gain momentum as we go on
In sociology we studied serial killer profiling and crimanal justice
This dude in Kansas named BTK was really a wierd sicko, I cannot understand how people would be so fooled by their own warped fantasies that they'd get off on binding, torturing and killing others.
*shudders*
Guess I'll be revisited by nightmares.
We'll be starting on Hamlet in Literature class and I have already finished Wuthering Heights and shall certainly get more into A Tale of Two Cities than I had today [4 chapters, congrats to me]
Not a spectacularly auspicious start, but on the morrow I feel that there's a beautiful day (and 4 days until the big testing: da da dum, the SATs) coming so I better take cover, lemme check my schedule
physical education right in the morn, argh!
ttyl sweetlings!

didn't quite understand the fundamental theorum in the packet. there's a french vocab quiz on the morrow. i'll need to film down winter concert. reading this new Redwall book (Rakkety Tam) by Jacques, pretty funny so far. it's not as good a series as i remembered 2 yrs old. was a little hard to keep up w/ the mole's dialogue. how things have changed. i must be growing up and outta that stage. still laughing at the Salamandastron hares though, wot wot. always will. hm, how things have not changed. i love ya, fool. i've a fond place in my heart for fitz, also. it just occured to me that rasputin is a good screen name, heh. that's about it for today. i must have a smiley to cheer me up. or re-watch monty python's quet for the holy grail, yah. Scarlett says "i'll worry about it tommorrow" that's my gal. the procrastinator, lol!
