Agh I got cheesed today (just a while ago too). I was working on inserting photos into the last few pages of the annual and then all of a sudden, my left felt really COLD and WET. Then my automatic reaction was to reach down and touch whatever it was... and to my surprise.. IT WAS A PIECE OF GOOEY CHEESE!! I have no idea where it originated from considering everyone in the room had little or no cheese at all. I'm disturbed.



On Wednesday, I suddenly had to do an in-class essay in English related to some incident that didn't really relate to me and probably the majority of the students. We had to write an in-class argumentive essay, but we had the chance to prepare the outline. After marking it (probably after a week after; the marks were already handed in), she suddenly comes to class feeling all depressed and upset about the fact that she merely SUSPECTS someone for using a pre-written essay. So now, the essay we had to write was supposedly about how you felt at the time you got betrayed or trust was broken. Then... yes, she asked for ways to solve the problem but I didn't write any, since in these sort of circumstances, there are few or none solutions.



Big Will was in charge of creating the grad collage but it seems like Mo2 didn't approve of its quality so instead, she decided to put it into her own hands and do it herself. She sent it to me late at night, but I fell asleep by then. Instead, I woke up at 6 and started to work on the left over page which I had to do since the pictures she used cannot be repeated and we needed another spread of candids. SO, I had to look through all my pictures and found that there were no more left because Mo2 used them all. But I kept working anyways until a bit over 10. I was late for my class then, and I still didn't get it done... -_- I went and stole some grad pics from the grad mural and asked some hongers for some photos. Attempted to finish them that night, but couldn't do to lack of pictures (STILL!) so I gathered some photos people were able to send me and old photos that Shi2 took. Finally, I stayed up till 6am to finish it. Boy. Tis horrid stress when you have 80+ layers and you try to wait as patiently as possible.. XD~



I'm tired now. I'm still mad for being cheesed. I think I'll go enjoy my day today by slacking off and treat myself to some quality time with my photoshop... My poor blog is crying for a new look. ~_~

Two weeks worth of stuff to say... I've forgotten most of it but where should I start.



Last LAST week... I was helper in Japanese class so I had to do the interview. I totally screwed up, answering with one word answers. Yearbook photos happened on the same day after school. Our class this year was extra big, causing us to take forever to line-up for the photo. And like every year, not everyone shows up... it was still packed either way. Moni got to sit in the same area as she did last year as for I, I had to take the COUCH with these OTHER UGRY PEOPLE I DIDN'T LIKE. Worst of all, this particular girl in the class (fat+ugly) "placed" herself on the arm of the couch to pose all... (the best word would be slutty). And she couldn't stop talking loudly when the photo guy was placing us. Now to add onto the ugliness, our advisor was asked to sprawl across the front of the picture with a rose in his mouth. Super nasty stuff imagine: fat, ugly guy w/ rose in his mouth lying sprawled in front of you.... eghrehgh..



There was a bio midterm on that same week. Sucked. Then there was the Wellness Show Orientation too w/ Mo2. We were dragged around with a big group of people trying to hear this really quiet lady speak. We gave up at the end though... That coming Sunday was the actual Wellness Show. We went. It was blah. The first half, we did surveys. Then I was sent upstairs for some boring back-uping where I just sat around in front of meeting rooms for a half n hour or so. That shift was over. Next shift was Information Desk. The shift before us didn't leave us any information so we were clued out on what to do. Unluckily, the supervisor was some geek that kept bothering us. So instead, we got the customers to go and bother him. We dragged Shi2 to come, and she did. Before it was over, we were given a bag of free goodies and the chance to go and sample everything at the show, or at least, what was left of it. Before we left, we noticed a shift labeled "Ottawa" having a party so we felt stupid and screamed meaningless questions and demands at them. Some answered us, some tried to ignore us. After all that, we enjoyed A&W food. Nummy.



Last Wednesday... I labeled it as "a retarded day" (I even wrote that in my Agenda :p). I had a spare first thing, so I got to sleep in. Got to school and found out I was chosen for the Student Forums. There went my Geo class. We filled out a survey and had a discussion. Tony, and Andu C. were there screwing around. Lunch--I had to finish up the in-class Geo assignment I missed. In Japanese, we had some Chinese guy as our substitute (due to IB Interviews) that didn't know Japanese (and in the past known to not be able to teach Math or any Sciences). He constantly got mad at everyone but due to his lack of English, it was sort of hard for him to find the right words to scold us with. Er so after in Bio we had another substitute. We were told to make a Crossword with our Nerve System definitions. To me the day didn't seem like a school day at all...



The day after, I took the LPI exam at school. The topics were all horrible. The only one I thought was best was "If you were to leave Canada and live in another country, what would be your reasons for doing so?"... and so I had to make up as many reasons as possible... The rest of the exam was quite straightforward though. But considering the essay is most important, meh, it doesn't matter.



Finally Friday... I didn't know we had a Geo test on coastlines! When I got to school (hoping it'd be a carefree day considering it was Friday) I was told of a TEST. So I probably flunked it, cuz it was hard. -_-;; After school, I went to sing K w/ Asapin, Elie and Jo. Weird little group it was but interesting. We dropped by for some bbtea before we went and bumped into a bunch of school friends. We went for all you can sing and waited forever for our fries delivery.



As for today er yesterday (Saturday)... I wasted my whole day on RO. WHY? I SERIOUSLY DON'T KNOW!! All Shi2's fault for making me join this other server. We got around to make a party consisting of 4 people at the moment, which is kinda cool... Now that my weekend's gone, what am I to do. -___- I might be tempted to go about the same thing as I did yesterday later today too....

This has been quite the hectic week. Planned to work on Bio Proj. on Sunday, didn't happen. Stayed at home instead and studied Geo. Boo. Geo test turned out so-so. Then had a Math test Tuesday. Then came a Japanese test today. Goodness the matching was harder than the written, wtf! Paragraph writing was fun... only. Still got that project to do in addition to my Japanese project too due next Tuesday which we haven't started on... supposedly a group project. Working with a guy I don't wanna work with cuz I hate his guts. We are to create a 5 minute commercial on something environmental related. Something fun I suppose.... though there hasn't been much planning on it. Something related to water it seems...



Three events coming up this weekend too... Just so happens all are birthdays too. Der's on Friday, Eliza's on Saturday and Tony's on Sunday. Funny... Der's party is going to be held at Mike's house... we'll probably be playing MJ all day. Eliza's is suppose to start after 10pm... some surprise party. As for Tony's... yum cha (dim sum) and sing k. What a great variety. I like that. Now, I wonder if my parents will like that. Heh heh heh.



A lil rare pluggage to you and you for linking and I didn't even know... :x Banzai!

Last Sunday I was able to get a copy of Red and White FINALLY... waited forever for this. I got to watch the first part (first tape) on Monday... still have yet to watch the second most IMPORTANT part...



Well this whole week was stressing. Full of more unwanted ANNUAL-RELATED STRESS. Shouldn't of existed in the first place but some FAGGET (YES FAG DAMMIT) SAID TO LET THE "STUDENTS" DO IT INSTEAD OF HAVING THE EDITORS DO ALL THE WORK SUPPOSEDLY. Well, shove the middle finger up his nose and spit in his fag face cuz I'm sick and tired of his constant annoyance. It's just fricking first year teaching this course, who does he think he is? Goodness sake, he's a fuking newbie dick. He complains about the ladder that WE WERE APPOINTED TO DO and demands to have his ugly layout pages in the book due to "HIS" PREFERENCE. He gets so concerned he goes and talks to our Vice (aka. his best friend) about this and turns it into a BIG SITUATION. There's a reason why the editors are to create the ladder (aka. blueprints) of the book before the start of the production... but NO, THIS OLD FAT FACE THINKS HE COULD CHANGE THAT SO HE BRINGS IT FORWARD TO SOMEONE OF A HIGHER POWER. Who wouldn't want to BASH HIS FUKING HEAD IN WITH A FRIGGIN METAL POLE AT THAT MOMENT?! AND TO BUILD UP THE PROBLEM, a discussion about TEAM WORK and LEADERSHIP SHIT LECTURE comes OUT OF NOWHERE. Why can't he understand a simple concept: A pro and a newbie. A newbie works hard on their work. They think it's good in their eyes. A pro comes by and sees their hard work and sees that it's done well to them that's just the basics... but through the eyes of a pro, they could see beyond what a friggin newbie can see through experience which determines their judgement of how the pros themselves would work on the work in their way they know is most effective. BUT, HOW'S THIS RELATED TO WHAT THE INITIAL PROBLEM WAS? THE INITIAL PROBLEM WAS THIS PARTICULAR LAYOUT HE WANTED IN THE BOOK BUT WE DISAPPOVED AND WANTED TO CHANGE IT SO THE FRIGGIN LAYOUT HE WANTED WOULD BE IN THE BOOK BUT SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT DUE TO THE LACK OF SPACE IN THE BOOK... After the argument was over.... The solution that the Vice thought of was not a solution at all... it didn't change anything since we started the friggin argument. Absolutely nothing changed after the stupid conversation. The solution isn't even related to the problem at hand. The solution was to let the class decide the ladder. So, how is that related to this PARTICULAR SPREAD that's insignificantly at the end of the book to the rest of the other pages?!



I do think I feel better now. Even though the language was quite rude... I had no other way to express my current frustration.



Onto lighter things... On Wed, Mo2 and I went to the Career Fair. I was surprised at the number of digital arts-related colleges that increased this year. The majority of the booths were the same. The day after, Pre-Vanentines Day, we had to go to the gym for a Link Crew... Valentines event.. thingymajigger. One of my crew members came except Krista. I'll one day go chase out those hongers... and force the chocolate in their faces for not showing up... :p~ Later that night, we went to watch Hamlet at Langara. It was surprisingly easy to make your way around there. The play lasted for an hour and a half. Crazy stuff. The only good looking guy was Hamlet himself. He's quite the actor.



As for today, the Bio Project Meet-up was canceled. I wanted to watch DareDevil w/ Shi2 since Mo2 was with Boom already. We were so lazy we got out at 4. I was reminded of the date and decided to use my Playdium coupon before the due date which was tomorrow. So we ditched the movie and went to Playdium and played for 2 hours (which was the deal on the coupon for $15). We played lots of KoF, Soul Calibur, Power Stone, Time Splitters 2, House of the Dead 2, Table Hockey and other stuff... it was worth the 15. We had fries and cola afterwards. She got Cocacola and I got Pepsi. Our own preferences.



Just a while ago, I attempted at WA3 again. Hee, I haven't played for so long I forgot where and what I was going/doing. So I wasted a lot of time wandering around, then I realized I needed or at least should level up. So I wandered some more for places to level up but I failed to find a good enough place. So I decided to go to where I was to go next which was Survey Point #17. I went in half way and left again... scared to have to fight Humpty and Dumpty again without level up at all, being no different then my last attempt. Oh I suppose I didn't mention I got whooped big time going against the two; level too low. I finally found a good place to level, but I was talking to my bro so I lost my train of thought and got beat by some barbaric monkey-like monsters which use this smash attack that takes off 1000, which in other words all my HP. :p~ And since there were 4 to start with, within two turns everyone's already dead. Not sure what happened there... *shrugs*

Ah, I didn't blog longer than I thought... I wanted to but I didn't get around to do it.. :/



Ohh Friday came around (last week) and midterms came and I fuked it. Moving on. Joined a bunch of peeps at the bbtea place across from Oakridge (I don't know what to refer it as)... had some "fun" I suppose. Afterwards, some of the gang left and what's left of us (grady,3-10-mil and myself) decided to go visit the Chinese New Year markety thingy at Landsdown. $2 entrance fee! Crazyness... It sucked in there. Grady said it smelled like toilets in there... Well my cousin was there helping out at a stand. Don't know his english name... We passed by a few times, eyeing the gigantic Qoo head. Then we finally got around to buy it. I bargined the price but lost the ching-chong-push for another $2. Then since it was the traditional chinese dinner day thingy, we all went home. Went to grandma's... my precious grad sweater I love was completely soaked in oil smell. I was really pissed off.. -_-;



Sunday comes around... I agreed on helping Sacha in moving her house belongings. Holy crap she had a lot. :p~ I don't feel like going into the details but woo... her neighbourhood was quite creepy when we first entered the area. The houses were build facing one way -- not the usual straight so it faces the other house across the street like a mirror. They were... diagonal... weird... both sides... facing different directions... so..soso... weird. Well we went back and forth from the new house and old. Big bunch of SG people were there... yadda.



Finally today, Grady was dying to go out. So we dragged a bunch of people... Jon Li (aka. Long John -- lol; long story) 3-10-thou and myself! Yay foursome goodness... We dropped by each and every one of our houses to pick up money and munchies... We then decided to try out the new K place in Burnaby. Whee, being ever so excited we went and found that the location was quite far however it was practically empty in there. In fact, we were the first customers of the day. The place was roomy and not too badly decorated. We waited a bit for their computers to warm up. The manager(slash boss?!) taught us how to use their funky machine. We then started with ALL YOU CAN SING. They used this new program that the other K places didn't use (which is goood)... their selection wasn't bad not was it good either. They were missing a few of our personal favourites, which was the disappointment. After around 3 hours, the machine starts to delete our songs... then it started to replay the "default" song with was er (translated as...) King of Karaoke (err heh heh) again and again, even when we tried to cancel it. Then we called service; they said that the machines were all busted so they had to reboot. We were upset, but then at that same time we requested a bigger room (just cuz it's fun that way :p)... We changed rooms and then tried again... this time it wouldn't even play. We tried for at least 15 minutes but it wouldn't work. We went out to complain and so they came in to try and fix it. Once again they rebooted and said to wait a bit. So we sat around, sang to ourselves and turned off the lights (heheh..). After who knows how bloody long, they come in and say that it can't be fixed and told us to return in 2 hours. They told us we didn't have to pay (HUZZAH) and then we received a VIP card! Grady got to keep it though.. ;_; They were nice people... 'cept that other girl was trying to be friendly but wasn't really polite. She talked all "jokingly" to us most of the time (perhaps because of age differences?)...



We were disappointed... we had so many song we wanted to sing after that... we were hungry though so we went to Crystal. Wandered around the food court for quite a while to figure out what to eat. We had some okay food (not the greatest stuff)... then we went to Sakura Media. Long John was so happy to see the place and went crazy. They were having a Chinese New Years sale at that time, and since I wanted to buy something anyways, I decided to pick up a few things myself. Long John picked up a cd and that cat thing from Love Hina Again and I got 2 Tokyo Mew Mew keychains (Ichigo and Zakuro) and Sumomo~! We still wanted to buy those figurines that were displayed outside. Grady wanted Sailor Saturn (why? o_O) and I wanted ELK GAH! O_O!... They said they didn't have anymore and told us to go to the Richmond one. Since it was so far from where we were, we decided to go tomorrow since the sale ends Sunday.



Phew...



kidd.NU was updated earlier this week. And yar, I'm starting up a fanlisting! Go meee~
