My life...
Note to self: Don't start reading a good book at midnight when you have blogging to do...
Anyways, I haven't blogged for two(three) days now, which is a new low for me(since I started blogging again). I've been doing fairly consistent daily(nightly) updates, but the last few days have been rather busy. So, I'm just going to give you all a brief recap of the last two days, and see what happens from there. I have to warn you though, my memory might be a little shaky.
Monday: The final concert of Corem Deo! Yeah, the concert was alright. Nothing to brag about, but nothing to be ashamed about either. To me, the choir just didn't seem...Passionate, or excited about what they were singing. It didn't have a lot of heart behind it. The reasons for that could be many, the one that comes to mind most quickly is the director, judging from various reports that I've heard. Who knows, though? Really, though, I can't say I came for the concert...At all. Yeah, social interaction is high on my list of priorities at the moment. I have a lot to learn about people, but above that, it's just tons of fun just being with your friends. Wow, learning and fun combined. A educator's dream come true. I think that school's should set a period, every day, just for hanging out with friends. Yeah, it won't happen, but it would be awesome. Even though I'm homeschooled...Wendy's was hilarious. I got a lot of free stuff that night...Hey, I didn't ask for any of it, it was offered. Except for Tineke's fries. And her M&Ms. And her frosty. And Rachel's iced cap. And Kathleen's frosty. And Andrea's frosty. Well, some of it was offered anyways. And I had to WORK for that free frosty. Which means it wasn't really free. W\e. Anyways, happy birthday to Sharlene, and thanks for the absolutely random hug...Yeah, thanks to the rest of you for your hugs too, but they weren't exactly random. Brittni, you really need to hang out with all of us cool people for a change :P. Oh, thanks to the Van Pelt family for giving me a ride. I would give you some sort of reward, but really, I have no idea what, so I'll just go with a public thank you. Thank you. KathleenD, stop hanging out with that guy!! :P. Rachel, your paper thingies were awesome. I still have them, so I'll probably put them on my wall sometime...By sometime, I mean tonight after this post. Well, Monday is over...
Tuesday: Hmm....Stayed at home, doing logic all day(Traditional Logic, yes, school). Played some sweet games with my grandparents from B.C.(they're going home tomorrow), made milkshakes, that didn't turn out as awesome as they could have. And Katie! I really need to talk to you. I'll probably send you an email...You probably don't even read my blog 8-)(rolling eye smiley). So yeah, we were playing spoons and UNO, and stuff, while drinking strawberry milkshakes, which reminds me that I need to go buy some fruit this week. Actually maybe not. I have to goto the bank anyways, since I need to get some money for bowling the weekend. Bringing up another subject, I'm planning on planning a party. You're all invited, if it happens. Except for people I don't know, that just randomly read my blog. Unless you feel like introducing yourself. Use the comment box or send me an email. Otherwise, well, you're not getting any of the details. If there is any details to send. We'll see what happens. Anyways, after the games, I...What did I do? Uhm...I must have done something between 9:30 and like, 11:30...I have no idea. Bleah. There goes two hours of my life 8-). Anyways, then I read this awesomeish book, and then I came down here, noticed it was like, 1:00, decided to post anyways, and then started writing.
So, I had this really weird daydream on Monday, while I was listening to the choir. Hmm....Maybe I'll do this in fiction form...Or not. Anyways, I was imagining I was part of the choir, and I was a tenor(the coolest part in a choir, obviously). So, I tried to reach this really high note, but then I went flat or something, and like, it was really loud. So then the choir director was like, yeah, you're totally not part of this choir anymore. And I was like, well, this was the first time I screwed up, give me a break. And then (s?)he was like, no, get out. So then I had to walk down this really massive aisle, carrying my folder, or something. Everyone was like, totally silent, and I had to walk out. Just...In front of everyone, and I didn't even have a ride home. (end story). The weird part about this whole thing is, it totally makes me really sad, for no reason. Like, even when I'm writing this, I'm getting all choked up. I'm probably going insane...
Interlude: In an attempt to take my crown of Checkers King away from me, I was challenged, by Vic, to a 2\3 checkers match. I accepted, and proceeded to quickly and decisively win the first game, giving me the one game advantage. The second game did not fare so well, as, in a series of unfortunate oversights and miscalculations, I let my opponent snatch the advantage away from me early on, and ultimately the game was against me. The third, and final game, proved to be the most interesting. Both sides were deadlocked early on, with only a few kills. Things opened up a bit, and then it went crazy. Advantages began to swing from side to side, but near the end, it appeared that Vic had the upper hand, with five kings against three. Keith took a blow when Vic forced him into a king exchange, making the odds four against two. A blunder by Vic, however, made the game more evenly matched, with three against two. In the final minutes of the game, things were looking grim for Keith, with both of his kings covered. However, with a brilliant tactical move, Keith sacrificed one of his kings, but turned that into a one-two kill. The game was even, one on one. Even the most hardened checkers player has to admit, king vs king games are extremely boring, and generally take up too much time for it to be worth it. Vic opened up the dealings with a proposal, and in the end, it was a draw game. The results of the negotiation are as follows: Vic and Keith are now co-Kings, with both having an equal share of the power. Challenges will be met by either party, and in case either party loses the challenge, the title will be given up by both.
End of interlude.
