oh, boxing day.
i only got a TH rainjacket. disappointed. :[
my parents and i got to metrotown at eight, just when it opened and wandered around in the stores, looking for sales.
the lineups for lululemon, tna/aritzia, zara, ae, guess, armani, and various other stores were absolutely crazy.
however, my dad wanted to go to armani and my mom wanted to go to guess so i ended up lining up for them while they shopped in other stores. oh, not to mention hold their jackets, bags, and all the clothes they bought. >>;;
then, we drove to rc but couldn't find a parking space. therefore, we had to go back home. :[
as soon as i got home, my elem school friend phoned me and dragged me out to downtown with her. the snow, rain, and slush was just crazy. crossing each street involved hopping around on little pieces of ice or sinking into deep mud/water mixed puddles. oh, and i forgot to bring a hat, getting a brain freeze wasn't exactly awesome.
there were a lot of good sales. except, none of us bought anything.
while we sat in tim hortons waiting for her dad to pick us up [she's from the northwest territories so her dad's driving in vancouver snow is epic], she had a good long rant about transition. i felt so.. discriminated and insulted. everything she said about transition was bad. from her, regular HS is all about popularity, fashion, guys, sports, and absolutely no academics. labelling us "abnormal and ugly" crossed the line, a little too much. i had pics from the physics lab on my phone and when she looked at them, she nearly barfed out her donut and hot chocolate. she then spent the next .. i have no idea how long talking about how ugly my bf is. that was just...
i don't know, but i feel like that if i really went to regular HS, i'd be an outcast and nobody that my friend labelled all the people that didn't care about fashion, popularity, etc. i felt like punching her in the face when she continued to discuss about my fashion statements and boyfriend choosing. does it really matter that i don't wear true religion jeans and tna jackets? that i don't spend an hour in the morning doing my hair and makeup? and that my bf is uglier than yours?
does it really MATTER?
because in my opinion, it's just stupid bothering about that stuff when i have history essays to write and hamlet to read.
sigh, anyway, i'm not going to go on ranting about what she was ranting about. >>;; if that makes sense.
oh, have i mentioned?
SEVEN POUNDS IS SO GOOD. :]
but the ending is sooo sad. ><"
LOL
omfg.
i went out to shovel all that snow. it took me 2 hrs.
when i just started shoveling with my dad, my neighbor's family came by to go tobogganing with their little daughter. my neighbor also happens to be this guy from my elementary school class.
so, when they saw my dad and i shoveling, the dad told me that he can get his son to help and let my dad go back home. no matter how much i refused, he still called his son.
so we started shoveling all this snow, without much talking.
it just bothered me...
how he can shovel snow at twice the rate of me.
and it made me realize how unfit i am, all that eating in front of my laptop all day long just doesn't make me stronger. i used to be almost as fit as him.
and half way when i was panting my head off, i think he realized how weak i got, and told me to stop while he finishes.
being me, i naturally didn't listen to him. but i eventually gave up and stood there, watching him.
now i'm collapsing with boxes of snacks. T_T
have i mentioned?
i believe i should start exercising.
it's finally christmas. and the snow haven't melted yet. XD
on wed, i walked around my neighborhood with my elementary school best friend and gave out christmas presents to our good old dlg friends. it seemed nice meeting them again, chatting and catching up on all the high school drama that i missed. but, it felt slightly awkward as they mentioned their new churchill friends and talked amongst themselves. i felt left out, like an outcast. on top of that, for the first time, i felt clueless to what they were talking about. i used to know absolutely everything, from the latest gossip to the last math assignment. anyhow, it was nice seeing them again.
and, they're having a reunion next tuesday. but, i don't think i'm going. =[
i think christmas eve was a lot better, my parents and i went out to eat brunch and came back to have a snowball fight. it was so fun even though i got pwned by my dad. XD
sigh, today's christmas and i'm sitting here, playing cards online.
omgomgomgomg, IT'S BOXING DAY TMRW.
but, my mom said if the snow doesn't melt enough for our car to get out of the garage, we're not going shopping. -sniff-
therefore, i'm going to shovel snow in our driveway so that her car can get out tmrw. mwuaha.
shovelling snow, on christmas, what a great way to enjoy the holidays. >>;;
oh, have i mentioned?
i have stupid swimming lessons next week.
i just hate bronze cross. >=[
yay. 3 days 'till christmas, a white christmas. ;P
thursday night was the last last late night of this year. ^^
sleeping at 5 and waking up at, iunno, seven? wasn't nice. especially because we were suppose to go out for sushi the next day. after eating sushi, however, i went shopping for last minute christmas gifts. guess what? i nearly collapsed in the mall. no surprise. >>;;
winter break is just ever so relaxing, crashing for 16 hrs on fri night. and not doing anything on sat except go to art class is just.. awesome.
totally stress-free holidays.
even though i have hamlet test, history test, civics and bio provincials in january.
oh well, that doesn't matter. it's almost christmas.
ah, sunday morning. our car got stuck in the snow. :[
that meant, i had to shove snow for the whole stupid driveway for 3 hrs.
that tired me out like hell. not to mention, the driveway is pretty damn LONG. >:[
ooo, boxing day's coming up. ;P
shopping list timeeee. mwuahaha. >=D
i wish everyone merry christmas and happy new year. ;]]
and byebye to '08.
it's.. what, 3 in the morning?
my essay's due in 6 hrs or so.
i'm still missing the conclusion
i'd like to kill someone.
-kills-
all done.
oh, the prettiness of snow. it's a winter wonderland.
just as i thought i was going to die from forcing myself to write a test on hamlet, a play that i only "read" in class, daria says i have to get immunization shots. oh joy, i was so happy, all because i could skip the test. turns out, me and a bunch of other transies went to uhill and got our shots and came back and voila. they're still doing hamlet. but we managed to convince mr.zag to give us our test AFTER the winter break. yayyy. then again, i'm going forget all about hamlet by the end of the break, not that i knew hamlet in the first place.
our physics lab. horrible physics lab that i'm still stuck on doing the write-up, is completely retarded. just like every single other physics lab we had to do last year. and this year.
however, after the lab...
should i mention this?
yeah, maybe i should.
everyone managed to ditch and leave us with the pretty white snow. although the snow was pretty, the necklace's prettier. despite the fact that the snow is white while the necklace is, well, pink.
of course, i think the bus ride was more interesting. well, i never thought bus rides could be so.. awkward or what some people would call, romantic. it started off with an awkward silence and also ended with an awkward silence. however, the part inbetween was interesting. very interesting. somethings i would never imagine is possible..
especially on the bus...
he kissed me.
yes, for all you joa-clones, on the lips.
and the only comment i'll mention is, someone please get him chapsticks for xmas.
that's just the evil and cynical kathy you see everyday.
but other than that, it was really sweet. <3 imo of course.
the fact that it was on the bus, out of all places to get my first kiss, bothered me. XD
and the rest of the day is just, physics labbing
have i mentioned, i still didn't start my essay?
oh.my.gawd.
somewhat surprising, yet predictable.
1. Architect
2. Interior Designer
3. Drafter
4. Animator
5. Illustrator
interesting, no?
it makes me so art-sy.
the joys of careercruising.
i think i'm officially going to start blogging.
have a bet with me how long i can keep this up
.. i dare you.
anyway,
i almost gave up the thought that this year, a white christmas is impossible
.. until friday. it started, well, snowing. !!
considering i wrapped all my presents, i think i should get my tree out.
except, i'm way too lazy for that.
and of course, my report card was.. well, horrible.
but, i managed to get a B in history. amazing, huh?
then again, that was my lowest mark ever
so, my parents got upset, as always. not to mention they nearly killed me for barely getting an A in physics.
sometimes i wonder, can i even get into ubc like this?
even if i got in, would i survive?
honestly, with the rate i'm going at, i'm also going to fail university.
well, i think i should start writing my history essay.
despite the fact that it's due on thursday.
