TWO DOWN. FINALLY.

XD I started exams two weeks ago and I only just now finished two of them. Computers was the other day (and I did...dismally. 78% or so on it. ;_;'). French finished up this morning. That went okay, I think. We had to write two short, informal essays for the second part. XD I forgot all the names of everyone in the stupid books we were writing the essays about except for the main characters. So for Maria Chapdelaine, I was like..."She married Eutrope Gagnon because the...other guy from America...lived too far away" except a hell of a lot better. And then the second one was about how Meursault couldn't get married and I forgot his girlfriend's name, even though I spend a good 175/275 words talking about her. XD; I rock. And though I hate to admit it, I'm going to miss French. ;_;'

Anyway. Then lunch. Then computers, where I just spend an hour typing up my artist's statement since I just suck like that. (Attention span suuuuuuuuuuuucks today.) And I went gangster. I was all "crap this isn't long enough. Well, if I change the font to Tahoma, it'll be bigga" and then flipped out on myself. And then I printed it.

Now I'm writing an LJ entry instead of studying, which I should do since I only know Dada and Surrealism. (That's sad because I did my presentation on an Abstract Expressionist and now I don't know the movement at all.)

I'm going to go study now. I have twenty minutes before the exam. Go me.

edit: Lol, got some studying in. I'm so failing. :D But anyway. THIS IS MY PHYSICS TEACHER'S WALLPAPER. IT'S VERY DISTRACTING WHILE YOU'RE TRYING TO PRESENT. DX (Schincariol is his name so he has it "because it's the name of the beer too" but...)

Omg, I need a break from Physics, seriously. XD;

So today was...well, uneventful. Despite going to bed relatively early last night, I was still incredibly tired when I woke up this morning. x_x; I'm glad today is Thursday. I can just come home and SLEEP tomorrow night.

So, Physics was boring. Like a good little student (lol, I typed "stupid"), I studied the four questions we were to have on it the night before, so I didn't even need to cram. I ended up just given quick explanations about the questions to the people who came in without having studied. The people I usually just end up cramming with every morning.

The exam itself was really good today! We were kind of fretting because the questions (which he gave us BEFOREHAND ♥) seemed far too easy. There was one question using 2 point source waves, which I actually had to teach myself last night because I didn't understand it. I had originally written little cheat notes so that I'd know what each letter in the equation stood for, but I didn't even need that since I remembered, so I ended up using the pretty new formula sheet he photocopied for all of us (the one I made!) and all went well. The next question was just one using Coulomb's Law. We all thought it might be the--well, not hard but long--problem that was on the take-home test. But...no. There weren't even two different values for the charges. o_o; It was stupidly easy. The third question was kind of like the "lab" we did yesterday, except much easier. We just graphed a straight line, came up with a statement about the relationship, and then rewrote the equation using the slope we'd already found. The last question was RIGHT OUT OF OUR TEST on momentum. :D I'd done that question as practise last night so I practically remembered all the values. XD; I ACED that section of the exam.

Next was, well, spare, since I didn't have French. Followed Alyssa down to the caf and sat with Kura, Heather, and other people. I ended up writing out my exam notes for French. It took all of second period and most of third period (I continued after heading up to art) to finish the formation and usage of the subjunctive tense. XD; I'll probably finish that up tomorrow night. In art I was reminded that I have to do a second pencil drawing since I don't have any life drawings...shit! I'd forgotten all about that, so I guess I'll be half-assing one over the next week as I study for exams. That also means my weekend is absolutely packed. XD;

Computers was just...boring. I didn't even end up getting her to come check out my CPT since I can still do that tomorrow. I spent most of it looking up information about the physics of hovercrafts for my Physics CPT. Even though we present on Monday, he wants our presentation basically finished for tomorrow because he thinks we're all retards who can't work Powerpoint on his laptop. 9_9; It took most of the night to finish the research, but with Dean's help we got it all done and I just finished getting it all typed up in point form. Now I just have to bring that into a makeshift Powerpoint presentation. I figure so long as I have a basic outline of the Powerpoint to bring in and test tomorrow, it'll work fine. I mean, I have no doubt it will work, but we can edit this one later and at least we'll know for sure. I dunno. The handout won't be done for tomorrow though.

So, tomorrow night I'm kind of free. I'll be going out with mom to buy the canvasses for my art CPT. Or maybe I'll just head out with dad and we can go over to Home Depot and get the stuff for the hovercraft. :\ That's my day Saturday--Dean will be coming over and we'll spend the whole day building the thing, I think. Then we just have to once-over the Powerpoint and play around to finalize the handout and we're done...! Oh, I can't wait. Since after this, the course is pretty much over until the multiple choice section of the exam, which isn't even until the end of the month. @_@

Now I guess I'll go half-ass that Powerpoint, finalize Alyssa's DVD, and study for tomorrow's exam. ;_; Crap, and I wanted to go to bed early. Maybe I'll leave the studying for tomorrow morning. Glancing at my exam notes, the stuff can be studied pretty quickly, I think, so long as I memorize the order to use equations for the problems.

Anyway, I'm off.

:D Phew, after my French orals today, I just feel a lot lighter. French is such a stressful course, especially this year, and now it's pretty much over. I want to get the review package for the course mostly out of the way tonight and then I don't have to worry about it except for my traditional last-minute review next week before the exam.

But I'll rewind. Mom woke me up early to say I was catching the bus. We left at 7:30 so...I didn't catch the bus, but I still got to school before 8, which was nice. :D Dean and I looked over the stuff for our Physics exam first thing and memorized some stuff. Today's exam was alright. The stuff we studied this morning was really easy--I breezed right though it. The rest of the exam was basically a lab report. He gave us the values of an experiment and we had to put it all together with a graph and figure out what everything meant. o_o; I think I did okay on that, though probably not quite perfect.

Then French. I was so nervous for some reason. xD Madame told us yesterday that I was going first, but when I got there, she'd posted lists for all the days of the order everyone was going. I ended up going second-last. o_o; Basically, all of us who went today just sat there talking the whole time. Mine went okay. I forgot my lines a couple times, but she didn't say anything after. Apparently for others she told them their faults and gave them the corrections after they finished, but she didn't say anything for me--good or bad. So I have no idea how I did. I hope I wasn't under time. @_@; Oh well. It's over and now I have spare second period for the next two days, basically. XD;

Art was pretty boring. I just fleshed out my CPT sketches a bit more and then spoke with Estabillo about it. I'll probably just be doing two similar paintings of the same scene, day and night. Apparently whatever the hell I came up with counts as Surrealism so, yay. :x I guess tomorrow I'll head out with mom or dad to buy canvasses and then...well, I guess this weekend I'll be painting. Or next week afterschool every night. Probably both. I also asked her if I would get my art supplies next semester. See, since I'm in a special art program at school, we paid a large fee at the beginning of high school that covers field trips, guest presentations, and basic art supplies for all four years of classes. I won't be taking art next semester so I wanted to know if I could still get the supplies anyway since I DID already pay for them. She said it was probable that I could and also said I could probably go on all the field trips too since I already paid for them as well. XD That'd be pretty cool, getting to go on the trips without even being in the class. Maybe I'll go on one next semester just for the hell of it, if I can. :D That'd be cool.

Lunch was hilarious. The stupid hat. XDDD; Omg.

And computers was just boring. The teacher wasn't there so I couldn't have her look over my CPT. ;_;' I ended up just organizing my art/computers binder and starting my notes for the computers exam. I got through all the vocab by the end of class. So boooring.

Now I'm home. Hooked my laptop up to the TV again so I could use the surround sound speakers for my music. xD I love that. No one's going to be home for most of the night because my mom is taking Bryan to the open house at St. Augustine's, the laptop school where he wants to go for his secondary education and dad has an early hockey game soooo...it'll just be me. :D~

Gonna work on that French, study Physics, maybe do something else, and haul my ass off to bed early tonight.

Today seemed to take forever to go by. @_@

Exams invoke stupid dreams in me. o_o; I had a dream last night that Dean and I had our Calculus II exam (wtf?) and were trying to register for it about an hour prior, but couldn't figure out where to register. The sad thing is, I had this dream LAST YEAR just before our Calculus exam. This one was like...the sequel, since either Dean or I at some point said, "Remember this same thing happened last year?" It was very confusing.

Anyway. I woke up late. For some reason my alarm didn't go off, so mom popped in at 7:20 to tell me to get up and dressed. So I did, and it was off to school with me.

I just dropped my coat in my locker and went into Physics as soon as I got there. We were scheduled to start our exam yesterday, but with the snow day, it started today. Now, he said he would keep the schedule as-is and simply have any missed exams on the Friday, since somehow he predicted the snow day. XD However, he changed his mind or something today and suddenly we were all re-reviewing the content for yesterday's exam.

So, we wrote that. It wasn't too bad. There was a surprise question on the Law of Conservation of Linear Momentum, which I'm pretty sure I guessed at right. I don't remember exactly what I wrote, but it was basically a less-detailed version of the law in the text book, as I learned when I looked it up after. I also never really memorized how lasers work properly, so I doubt I got full marks on that question. (The textbook was vague and the note he gave us was written terribly, so I really didn't get it. ;_;) I finished the exam rather quickly though and overall I think I did well on today's part. He updated our marks with all the crap we had to hand in after Christmas. My mark jumped up to 74%. ^_^ That still kinda sucks ass compared to my other marks this semester, but damnit, it's good enough for me since that should be fine for getting into York. (It's the only one that requires Physics, blech.)

Next was French. The last of the research projects were presented today, and she asked us who had oral exams tomorrow. I look at my watch and sure enough, tomorrow is the 17th. Greeeeeat. I raised my hand and somehow managed to end up going first tomorrow. So I have to memorize my monologue tonight. For some reason I thought the 17th was a Thursday. I'm worried about the monologue since when I handed it in, she said it was really short. o_o; I've read it out several times with a timer today, and got 4:15, 4:35, and 4:50 as my times. So hopefully, if I memorize it to be read slowly AND she counts the time it'll take me to remember exactly what to say (since I know I'll have at least one awkward pause tomorrow), then it'll be over 5 minutes. (She said we have major penalties if it's under 5 minutes, which will suck. o_o)

Art was boring. Just carved and sanded the whole time, along with getting assaulted by Julian's carving utensil. :x I...think I'm done. Either done or fed up with it, so I don't think I'll be continuing any longer. Besides, I need to start my CPT so I don't fall behind just before the end, which seems to happen every art course. I don't want to end art on a bad note since this is my last art course. ;_;'

In computers, I finished my CPT. She checked it the first time and managed to find an error (I'd forgotten to idiot-proof my search methods XD) and then when I fixed them with a line of code, she wasn't there for the rest of the class to come check it again. DX I wanted to just be done with it. Though, now that I am, I can have all three lunches on Wednesday and Thursday next week since I have no reason to go to that class after the exam. :D

Then I came home and it was cold outside. @_@; I changed, ate some food, memorized a few more lines of my French, and then got distracted by Notepad. It was open so I wrote out an entry. Go me.

I'm stupidly tired right now. I'd like to go take a nap, but I know if I do now, I'll just have problems sleeping tonight. But if I don't, I might be too tired to properly memorize this. ;_;' Not to mention I have to study for Physics again tonight too. I'd go take a half-hour nap now and tell my brother to wake me but...I know he'll forget so that's rather pointless. Oh well.

Back to French. At least since I'm going first, I get it out of the way and don't have to go back to class until...when, Friday? @_@ Yaaay.

LASERS ARE BORING.

Right, today started off with a very long Physics class. First, we watched an old video of footage taped off of CBC of David Suzuki's old show. (The Nature of Things, I think it's called?) It was about lasers. Then Shincariol put on another video, this one from 1987. o__o; It was terrible. He said beforehand that if anyone wanted to leave the class to go commit suicide, we could. Rofl, I know why he said it now--the video was so boring. They felt the need to explain the word "amplification" for a good six minutes. Um, we're a grade 12 university Physics class. I think we know what amplification is. XD;

This video was like a Powerpoint with ugly music and an annoying narrator. To make matters worse, there wasn't just one video on the tape. When the words "The End" appeared at the lower right-hand corner and the class broke out into a cheer, the teacher just laughed and told us there was more. And sure enough, it starts up again. Pretty much the EXACT same information, just with different pictures (sometimes) and different sound effects. The third time the video showed, Shincariol left the room for a moment. So someone ran up and hit fast forward and we zoomed through most of that video until the teacher came back. He walked in and the guy hit play, so it started back up with the narrator in mid-sentence. Shincariol either didn't notice or didn't say anything. XD Luckily, that was the last one. That class just crept by, though. @_@

So. French. I walked into the classroom to find all the desks separated the way they always are when we write tests or in-class assignments. o.o; There was a test on every desk that was titled "GRADE 12 FRENCH STANDARDIZED TEST" and so everyone was looking at each other with very "WTF" expressions. XD Madame explained when everyone was seated that she had been looking for a sight passage to put on our final exam when she came across this test from the 50s that she gives her 12s every year. o_o; So we wrote this exam in 25 minutes. It was...hard. Basically, it gave you an English sentence and the equivalent French sentence, except the French sentence had a blank in it and you had to translate that part of the English sentence into French to fill it.

I wrote the test and found some parts easy--or so I thought, anyway. Others were hard--she even told us before hand that we probably wouldn't remember the word for "postman" since we hadn't done much vocabulary since elementary school (and most people learnt NOTHING in elementary school) but we couldn't look it up. So of course, when postman came up in the test, we all drew a blank. I think most people guessed "courrieur" (so, totally, amazingly wrong but...hey, how could I remember the word facteur which looks nothing like its English counterpart if I hadn't seen the word since...grade 5, maybe? Grade 4? I don't remember!). After time was up, we exchanged papers and graded them. The highest mark in our class was 34/75. o_o; I got the fourth highest--a 27/75, I believe. I made some stupid mistakes. XD Like in one part, where we had to write, "Go search," I wrote Allez and then forgot to add in the second verb. Good job, Erica. XD; I also forgot someone on another one, but I can't remember it now. Either way, our class sucked at it, but there were several things they never taught us on the test so...oh well. We got to leave class early because of it (10 minutes, but still) so it wasn't too bad. Plus, it doesn't count toward our marks. :D

Lunch was fun. I got pasta from the caf (even if it STILL took forever to get food with a 10 minute head start on the rest of the school) and it was good, but it burnt my tongue, which still hurts. XD; Then we were just talking for a bit and ichigo_kura was showing me some Dir en Grey songs. @_@ They were really good, especially the ones we were listening to near the end~

In Computers, I came SO close to finishing all my work for nearly the whole week. About halfway through, the fire alarm went off so we had to go outside. Triffy and I didn't have jackets so it was pretty cold, though more so for him since he was in a t-shirt and I at least had my sweater on. XD; They let us in fairly quickly though, and I don't think the fire department even came, since someone had seen the person pull the alarm, thus making it false. :x When we came back in, however, I didn't have enough time to perfect my code on that last assignment. Damnit, I swear I'm about 5 minutes away from completion, I just have to debug it. And tomorrow it'll take twice the time because I'll have to figure out what the hell I was doing today first. D:

In art, I actually accomplished quite a bit. I managed to nearly halt my respiration system (the masks we have to wear to ensure plaster dust doesn't get into our lungs are REALLY tight and I can't breathe properly at all while wearing mine), started and finished my sculpture design, got Julian to help me get my plaster mold out of the bucket it was molded in, and started carving. :D We cleaned up a good 20 minutes too early, though, so at the end of class everyone was just standing at the door for a good 10 minutes with nothing to do. XD

Dean came over to my house after school so we could get something done in Physics. We have so many projects to do before the end of the course. There's our CPT (major project, usually worth 15% of your final mark) which we have to BUILD something for, but we have no rubric, project guidelines, or instructions. We have an entire unit to do on our own regarding waves, and then we have several tests to do regarding said unit. Finally, we have a project to do on a "Canadian Contributor to Modern Physics." We have a list of people to choose from and we've never heard of any of them--on the weekend I took the initiative to Google these names. One of these guys doesn't even have a Wiki entry. @_@; I think we've chosen who we're doing for this project, but the school library doesn't have any books that mention him (I checked the other day during Art when everyone was on the trip) and it looks like this may be a tedious project. It's not a partner project, but Dean and I are just going to do the same person together and then put it together in two separate--but slightly different--papers. I'm probably forgetting some assignments here, too.

Um, anyway, I digress. We got home, grabbed some food, and sat down to work. We decided we would start by doing all of--or at least most of--the Physics questions he'd assigned for the independent unit. So I take out my sheet and we look over it. There is something wrong with it. Half the questions assigned are from the chapters BEFORE the unit--we already had our test on those! We tried to read the textbook (the Nelson one, so we were reading it from my laptop as a PDF file) but that proved too tedious since my resolution is so small and the pages are unreadable unless at 100%. x_x; That coupled with the fact that Dean and I just suck at studying means we gave up pretty quickly. We tried a self-quiz and failed it, so we kind of got distracted and ended up reading stuff from daily_sporfle. XD

We fairly quickly got ourselves back to Physics, though and decided to tackle one of the self-tests. After teaching ourselves the chapters it was on, we managed to get all but three marks. One was a question asking how plastic wrap sticks to a bowl (we figure that's in the Nelson textbook but my laptop was being a bitch and was taking forever to open PDF files so we skipped it) and the last was about lightning and comparing it to parallel plates or something like that. We can probably find that pretty easily in one of the textbooks so we're saving it for later...especially since Dean had to leave.

After he left, I decided to finish that formula sheet for Physics. Somehow I managed to complete the second page in a matter of about...15 minutes? I really liked the way I did it, too, so I completely re-did the first page as well. I think I'm happy with the format. The first page is pretty busy and has a lot more on it than the second, since Kinematics and Dynamics go together best, but they also both have a ton of equations associated with them. I think it's pretty damn good, though, and it'll be really easy to fix or alter it if need be. I just hope the files themselves work--I know Shincariol uses Office 2003 and I saved the sheet twice. Once normally, so it'll work for sure with Office 2007, but I'm not sure about older versions? I know the new Word saves its files as *.docx but the Publisher file I saved had the same extension as the old ones do, so I dunno. I saved it again as a "Publisher 2000" file (I think...it was some year before '03) just to be safe, but when I did, it said I'd used some features that weren't available in that version, which is ridiculous since I only used tables and text boxes but...we'll see, I guess. XD And actually, I just remembered a bit I forgot to add on, so I'll do that now.

Yay, now I'm done. I was going to study art slides after doing all that, since the test is tomorrow, but I apparently don't have the URL. o_o; I'll probably do one more scan of my e-mail, recent LJ comments, and convo history with Triffy since I'm pretty sure he linked me to the Slide IDs once, but if I don't find it I'll just go to bed since it's already midnight. I may just go to bed anyway and perhaps ask to do the Slide ID test on my lunch another day? Hmm. Well, I'll decide later. For now, I'll just submit this entry.

Alarm clock, I hate you. :\ It's retarded. I set it for...6:50, was it? I wanted to have plenty of time to shower. I guess it was really quiet or not working today, because I woke up at 7:22 and had to do a double take to look at the time since mom said we were leaving at "7:30." ;_; So I got up, had a really quick shower, dried my hair, and walked out of the bathroom to get dressed when...the clock says 7:23. So either I showered and washed my hair in a minute, or my clock is retarded. o_o;

Anyway, today was fun. We had a supply in Physics, so we did nothing.

In French, we walked in and there were big sheets of paper around the room. Madame split us into groups and we had to write five different sentences continuing "If I ran away/escaped, it would be because..." :x We were so sure we were doing it wrong since our first two were so simple--"I'd run away if my parents hated me" and "I'd run away if I won a million dollars"--but Madame liked them. Then we got really retarded. "I'd run away if my family became cannibals" and "I'd run away if it rained fish." XD; The rest of ours were fairly normal though. Madame laughed so hard at the cannibal one though. X3

Art was interesting. Barely anyone was there at first since I think roughly half our class is in that one Philosophy homeroom, which was on a field trip today. o_o; So Estabillo brought us all out to her car so we could help carry in a bunch of mallets and bags of plaster. Then we all pushed tables together and made lots of noise, smashing the buckets previously filled with wet plaster (which has since dried) so that the plaster blocks would fall out. :D It was Vlad who finally found the best way--just dropping it on the floor over and over again, albeit from a height of about 3 cm.

Uuuh...lunch was okay. We talked about stuff for a long time and yelled at all the people who came around trying to sell us stuff. :B

Computers sucked. Couldn't concentrate.

Anime club was fun...we were gonna watch Death Note, but Chetty needed his laptop and the art department's laptop wouldn't project AVI videos through the projector for some reason. o_O; So some people crowded the laptop to watch Death Note and everyone else watched some gory Korean-dubbed-to-English movie. I just coloured. XD Also, this one girl spoilt Death Note for a lot of people--she gave out the major spoiler from volume 7 of the manga. :\ I wanted to spoil the ending of the whole series for her so bad, since she hasn't finished it and...honestly...who spoils things like that? NO ONE EVEN ASKED. x_o; At least if I'm gonna mention that kind of stuff, I make sure everyone wants to hear it and I don't just say it. Very inconsiderate. D:

Anyway, Alyssa went home early and then Dean and I went to the mall, bought food, and sat in the usual spot talking and eating. :B He spilt a ton of popcorn at one point and the woman sitting in the chair across from us was trying not to laugh at him. Then about 2 hours after we got there, mom came to pick me up and I left. But we stopped in at EB Games first--she asked if we'd be able to preorder a Wii from their next shipment, but the manager said no. ;_; However, she's going to call them tomorrow morning to see if they've gotten any in (since that's all he said we could do) and then if they do, I'll go during lunch to buy it and ask them to hold it afterward until she picks it up after work. o_x; I'm worried, though, since I won't get there until 12:30 at the earliest...and that'll probably be too late. But oh well...I've got Final Fantasy to occupy myself with, plus I want to read Eragon before the movie comes out.

Off to do homework, now~

I went to school today. Yay. Also, scratch that last entry. It wasn't food poisoning--the potatoes dad found were different ones from what ate so I'm back to not knowing what the hell was wrong. o_o; Mom wrote me a note to Nero explaining why I wasn't there for the unit test yesterday as well as mentioning my whole background with menstrual cramps and all that shit. So we're blaming my illness the last couple days on that (which it would've been anyway, if not for it hurting in a few other places as well :\).

So...in Physics, Shincariol asked where I was. I told him I was home. Then he asked if they'd figured out what was wrong with me. I told him it was endometriosis and he knew what it was. xD; Wasn't expecting that, though now that I think about it it makes sense since we studied the whole cycle and such in grade 9 science, which he's probably taught several times. Anyway, we continued the stupid lab in that class and that's it.

French went much, much better than expected. I walked in and she was yelling at Torti or something, so I was nervous since it seemed she was already in a bad mood--not the best thing when I had to convince her to let me write the test instead of taking a zero. XD; So I went up and gave her my mom's note and admit slip. Perfect timing--apparently her niece was scraped for endometriosis just the other week or something, so she knew all about it and that stuff. She also told me the pills I'm on won't work and that I'll have to be scraped too. (It's this surgery that might get rid of the problems--it gets rid of the spotting on the other organs or whatever, but not always and it can always come back so...mom wanted to try other options first. o_o) Anyway, she was really understanding and even let me write the test today...though I should've said I still felt like crap since for a moment there, I think she was going to either make up another one or omit it altogether or something. XD; Not sure when I'll do the oral parts.

Art wasn't very eventful. We aren't casting our plaster until Friday (or I'm not, anyway) and so we just looked over the slides for next week's test and looked at some famous sculptures on a powerpoint. o.o Then at one point the office buzzed in looking for Kura, but she wasn't there, so then instead of dropping it (like they ALWAYS do when someone's not in the class when they ask) they called schoolwide for her. o__o; So of course, that worried the hell out of us, thinking she'd gone missing or something. xD We tried texting her and calling, but to no avail. Then we tried calling Erica T. or her boyfriend to see if they knew anything (since Erica also wasn't in art) but they didn't pick up. Then one of the VPs came to get Kura's cell number from Caitlin. oO; We assumed she hadn't shown up for any classes or something (like, that she'd skipped first and third for some reason and since she wasn't in first, they'd called home to see if she was home ill and her mom got worried too...something like that since the series of events would've made sense). So when lunch came, we checked her locker, didn't find her. Then were set to go look at the mall since that's where we'd planned to go to lunch (or...where everyone else had planned; I haven't been there the last few days) and then found her in the caf. :x She'd skipped to keep Vanessa company since she wasn't feeling well, and didn't even know the office was looking for her. That's just...retarded--wouldn't someone from the office, if they were looking "so hard" for her...like...check the cafeteria? o_O;; So she went up to tell Estabillo where she'd been and came back and called her mom, too. Her mom had no idea either, so they hadn't even called her house to ask if she was home ill or something like that. xD We seriously have the worst administration team ever. Glad everything was fine, though~ :O

Lunch was pretty fun though. Crappy pizza, but Caitlin brought party crackers so that was interesting. xD They came with retarded little jokes, a sexy paper crown, and little prizes. Vanessa's had little mini clothespins. Kura's was a board game, though none of us had ANY idea how it worked since it came with little markers in different colours (for different players?) and this retarded board map...and I think it had a label in Chinese, so it was very confusing. o_O Mine was a really little pen, smaller than my finger. I gave it to Caitlin since it was pink and I didn't want it. xD;

Computers was pretty fun. Dean had a supply in Chem, so he followed me from his English class to my class when I went to get my binder just before the bell. :B He's good luck--the last time he skipped and came to my class, we got our updated marks for the first time. This time, it happened again. xD Titus handed back our marks and mine went up! I'm getting 98% now! ^___^ I went up at one point to see if she'd left her sheet that shows all the students and all the marks--she'd left it at my computer last time we got marks, but this time it was on her desk. I picked through a few things to find it, and...I'm getting highest! :DDD The guy who had higher than me before is getting 96 now, so I'm happy. *wanted the award* We also got everything back today. I only missed one point on that last test we had where I couldn't concentrate because of my pills. xD; And it wasn't even on any of the looping questions (which is sad because they were the ones I struggled to pay attention to as I worked them out, rofl). I also got almost everything done; I sent myself the rest of my program tonight to work it all out so I'll be done tomorrow. Don't want to fall behind again.

Bus ride home was uneventful. I had no work I could do so I listened to music and stared out the window. Walk home was a bit cold, but I got used to it. The snow was annoying, and it wasn't even fun snow because it was melting as it hit the ground. DX Bryan was home when I got home since he...apparently tripped over the cooler in the kitchen (when it was like...against the wall, and a wall none of us walk by, so I have no idea how he managed to trip over it) and he did something to his arm. Pulled it, I think he said. I call bullshit since I think he changed his mind on which arm he injured between the time I got home and when I actually asked him about it. (I thought he was just sick or something.) But yeah...he didn't even tell my parents he was staying home. oo; Mom called earlier and told him to start his homework and she'd had no idea he hadn't gone to school to actually get said homework. Kid says he tried calling both parents multiple times but he never got a hold of them. @_@;; Oh well, his problem, not mine.

Now I wanna get that program finished, put all my loose sheets into my binder, colour the Roxas picture I drew last night, and...shower. Then maybe sleep. I'm tired today.

I...had something to say but then I forgot what it was. o_o

I guess this makes this entry pretty pointless.

...

@_@ Um. Can't remember. I give up.

Anyway, stuff happened today too.

Killed my eyes with the strobe light in Physics. Got perfect on my Maria Chapdelaine questions in French. Had sushi at lunch. Got ahead in Computers again. And, um, supply in art so we did absolutely nothing. Caitlin and I rolled around laughing half the class at...um, everything.

Tomorrow, I finally have my appointment with the stupid pain clinic. They had an opening with the best doctor there, apparently, so I'm getting in a month or two earlier than I would be. But apparently they never treat people who have "just" menstrual cramps so watch them not be able to do anything about this. Lol, just my luck. :\ Anyway, I'm getting picked up at 11 for that and mom refuses to pick me up at the mall even though EVERYONE I know is skipping the student-staff hockey game. So after first, I think a bunch of us are going to the mall and then I have to trek back to school to get picked up. And then she'll end up dropping me off at the school afterwards, so I'll have to walk back to the mall after that too. xD; Oh well.

Um. Shall stay up for a bit until my brother comes home and then I'll make him to homework and go to be--. No, I can't go to bed, can I? He won't do homework unless I'm sitting there telling him to keep doing it every couple seconds. Damnit. Well, I'll think of something. But I have to make him do homework since we're going to watch my dad's hockey game tonight and mom wants all his work done before that.

Aaanyway. I think I might be hungry. I'm going to go stand in the kitchen until I figure out if I am or not.

It was so hard getting up this morning. I spoke with mom for a long time last night about stuff in general and she said she'd let me sleep in until 7:30 today since I really needed to keep studying Physics but I just couldn't concentrate and stuff because of the pills. ._.; I mean, easier to concentrate with them rather than without them but I get confused so much easier and it takes a lot longer to stumble my way through equations with them. :\ I'm getting sidetracked, though. Long story short, waking up sucked and cramps suck. XD

As a result, I got to school a bit late. I squeezed in the door right around Shincariol (and I say squeezed quite literally--he's big :x) as the bell rang and he handed me a test. So, I wrote it. And completely fucking blanked out. I'm so fucking lucky to sit next to Dean since he watched my test; I did the second question wrong somehow. So he told me I did it wrong and showed me the first step, which was basically which equation to use, and I did get it from there. And then at one point he caught me use the radius of the Earth instead of the mass of the Earth. And then I think one other thing I had to check with him for. Everything else I left blank or managed to get on my own. I think I at least passed. Maybe. I hope.

I wrote about 10 minutes over the bell, so I got to French late. I was worried since as I was exchanged my books/binders in my locker after Physics, Irina showed up at her locker which is a few down the row from mine and jokingly accused me of skipping. When I said I'd been writing a test, she said Madame would be mad. DX She wasn't when I got to class, though, and I think it's just because of the subject of the test I was writing for. Suzie told her what I was doing and she thinks we're both insane for taking Physics as a course so...she sympathised. xD;

French itself was good. We took up all the Maria Chapdelaine questions from this week and last week. I got 45/50 on the first week (I got 5 off for handing them in a day late) and perfect on the second week. Plus I'm already finished the questions for next week. We spent the whole period correcting, save for a break in the middle when she explained the simplistic symbolism of the characters' surnames and then the end was used to work on the questions for next week. Which I've finished. xD Madame was happy~ And I'm damn proud of myself too. :x Since Physics is more or less a lost cause at this point, I only want to pass the damn course. That means I have to really bring up my French mark to include it in my university average.

Next was art. That was fairly uneventful. The class lasted forever and all we did was carve our stupid border pieces, Triffy and I. Dx Paul called his mom near the beginning, though, to ask if he'd gotten a Wii. The answer was yes, since she'd waited in line with Triffy's mom. That meant, of course, Triffy also got one. Buuut...if there was a line up AGAIN for it this week? I so didn't get one. Mom could only go during her lunch break, which at earliest was probably around 10, though it's more likely she went at 12 assuming she remembered to at all, but I think she would have. I believe she was planning on hitting an EB Games then, so maybe she would've succeeded? I don't know and it's not worth dwelling on. It's still taunting to have TP sitting right there on the coffee table but to be unable to play it. :|

Next was lunch, and my pizza was really good for once. I'd left my computers notes in my Physics binder, so Triffy let me study off of his. Haha, I accidentally took them out this morning instead of my formula/planetary sheet during the test this morning and confused the hell out of myself, since instead of seeing the masses of the planets, I saw arrays. Anyway, studying went well, but we got stuck on sorting arrays. Neither of us have successfully done the assignment for the unit (well, I haven't even looked at it, really, and Triffy hasn't got it working XD) so we both sat there trying to figure out how to do it, since it might be on the test. We worked right to the bell, figuring out only a little at a time since my mind kept coming to a halt and it was such a chore to keep thinking it through. (I'd just taken a pill 15-30 minutes before and it was kicking in, ack. XD)

The bell rang, so we made our way upstairs, and I continued trying to get it. I think I nearly did, too, but as I was all "hey wait, do we need another loop?" he just said, "Why don't we ask if this is actually on the test, now that we're here." So Titus flips through her copy of the test saying "nope" each time she read a question. It wasn't there. XD So we each grabbed a test and wrote~

I got stuck on the second question since it wanted a diagram and, well, I didn't know what to put for the diagram since wtf, it's an array. XD So I skipped it and the next one, which required far too much concentration for my mind to deal with then. Moved on and got the next two question. Had no idea what the hell was going on in the next one. So skipped it for the last question. Then went up and asked her about the two I didn't get. Got the first one pretty quick and she helped me understand the last one. I'd just been thinking too hard. So, I finished everything up but the one I'd understood, but skipped. It probably took the longest, since it gave two loops and a 2D array and I had to tell what it would output, which turned out to be:
( a pretty picture! )

o__x; Lol, I don't know why that was so hard, but it took me forever!

Anyway, during the test, Titus asked if anyone was in Shincariol's Physics class. I raised my hand, and I think someone else may have too. Then she asked if anyone wanted extra marks, so I was all "MEPLZKTHX ;__;" So she said to see her after the test. About five minutes later, I handed it in, and she told me what it was all about. Apparently he wants to make some changes to the 12U course's formula sheet, but it wasn't printing correctly and no one could figure out why. So my assignment over the weekend is to figure out why and fix it, or completely redo it so that it does print properly. And then I also have to revamp it so it can be printed on two legal size sheets of paper (since the paper it's printed on now is 8.5"x14", I think. So that gives me something to do this weekend.

That's it, I guess. Mom just called and mentioned my appointment with the pain clinic will hopefully be sometime next week, if I'm lucky. :x They finally got my referral, I believe, and she'll be calling again on Monday. I didn't ask her about the Wii, but she didn't bring it up herself, so I'm going to assume she forgot to go or else didn't get one. :\ Oh well. Looks like we're going to see Nightmare Before Christmas tonight, so that's good at least.

Gonna go play Okami.
