Baby you my everything

So.... school in a week. Didn't see this one coming so fast.

I finally got my school schedule today. I'm not too hapy to be quite honest. Well, okay, I am. I'm very happy with some things but the hugest thing is missing, a class I was SO looking forward to, and that my friends, is Law :( It's absence on my schedule is veeeeery conspicuous, and it ticks me off how it's supposed to be there but it isn't. Here's what my schedule looks like:

SEMESTER 1:

• Literature 12 - Blakely
• History 12 - Schieve
• SPARE
• English 12 H - Blessin
• Grad Transitions - Mastrioanni

SEMESTER 2:

• Comperative Civilizations 12 - Blessin
• Film Studies - Schieve
• Peer Tutoring 12 - Mumford
• French 12 - Young

And there are two huge things that are wrong with that schedule.

ONE: I have French 12 on there.... AGAIN. For everyone's information, I took that course when I was in Grade 11 and it was a nightmare, it was one of the heaviest course loads I've ever had and the amount of written work and deadlines was suffocating. I never wanted to take that course again, as I barely managed a 91, there's no way I would challenge or try to change that. So it CANNOT be on my schedule.

TWO: Once again, LAW is missing. I need that course more than I need half the classes on my schedule. And it ticks me off that a bunch of idiots are in that course, people who think it's an easy A, a bunch of potheads who don't do any work or pay any attention - and then there's me, someone who ACTUALLY NEED THIS COURSE, and someone who would ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION AND WORK HARD AND MOST LIKELY GET AN A (I hope I didn't jinx it) am stuck on the sidelines, sitting anxious and worried on the Wait List. I'm horrified. I'm angry. I'm so so so so worried.

After getting my schedule at 1 o'clock, I went straight to the school to take out French 12 and replace it with Law but no such luck... like I said, I'm on the freaking Wait List. I love Ms. Phelan though, she understands how much I need it, and she's been working really hard to get me into that course, and she put Genina and I first on the list, so if anybody drops out, Genina and I are in... 31 people are currently taking Law, and only 30 are supposed to be in it, max (if possible). Genina and I are number 32 and 33. Three people need to drop out of Law. Please, GOD PLEASE, if there is ANYBODY who doesn't need Law or is just taking it to eff around, DROP OUT, BECAUSE I NEED THIS FREAKING COURSE. I do not need French. I hate Ms. Young. I would never put myself through that horrible mess ever ever ever again.

On a brighter side of things... er... I can't quite think of any. Hold on a moment while I think. Hard.

Well, since I go back to school, that means there are new library books in the library! And I can take out as many books as I want and read and read and read :D Well, that's if time permits me, 'cause my first semester is hardcore :(

Er, After School tutoring begins again, and I get paid and I have a job again! But then again I usually sit down and do my own homework or office work for the librarians and that's utterly boring and I feel bad I'm getting paid for doing nothing :( I'll think again.

I get to see all my friends I haven't seen all summer again! But I don't think I've got any classes with KBAGG and that really depresses me :(

Okay, I should really stop, this is so not the bright side of things.

Oooh, there's my next Harry Potter dedicated blog!!! It would be my 60th blog since using this, so to celebrate it will be Harry Potter themed and all that hoo-ha! Yesss! Now that actually makes me happy.

I'm going to finish cleaning up my school stuff, since I started organizing my dividers and papers and pencil case, and now everything's a mess. So I'll write in this lataaaa.

Peace out and goodluck to all the seniors starting high school for the very last time come September the 8th :)

Yours, Gelina.

See me waiting for you on the corner of the street

All right, it's 1:13am and I'm going to attempt to write here, even though I'm probably not as capable as I should be if we're considering the past night's events and my foggy memory. I've settled down though, much better, not so much groggy. I'm writing pretty well so far, aren't I? I never cease to amaze my own self, I'm amazing.

All right, so a few days earlier, I actually woke up before noon.... or did I? Well, anyway, I woke up earlier than what I'm used to this summer to get to Kim's, and I watched, for the first time, American Pie from start to almost end - because let's face it, there's waaay too much doofus and dingbat things in those movies your brain probably loses brain cells every few minutes, I could hardly finish it. Well, I actually would've if the newly bought DVD collection (all 3 American Pies) didn't start freezing up, to poor Donald's dismay, as it was him who just bought it. But anyway. Not a bad film. Kind of stupid, buuuut not horrible. Hehe, because it started freezing up, we changed it to The Notebook, and KIM TOTALLY CRIED, HA, SUCKER. What a pansy. Jk Kim <3. Anyway, ordered from Pizza Hut (should've ordered lasagna instead of effing BACON PIZZA OR SOMETHING, 'CAUSE IT HAD ONIONS ON IT) and then quickly went to Macs to buy me my slurpie (or Donald did, the whole night was on him... I should try to pay him back). Really good day, anyway!

And tonight was Ram and Rav's birthday bash, so I had to meet with Amanjyot first as she lived within walking distance of their place... went to McDonald's first to meet up with Garret and Ashley and I GOT TO SEE MY HERO, BESSIE, and I mooched off of nuggets and convinced Garret to get me a strawberry shake, yahootie! But, anyway. Walked to the party after an unusually long time spent at McDonald's, and the party was in full swing within like 20 minutes, and it is the reason behind my intro for this blog. I'm pretty upset I didn't get to stay there longer, had to run all the way back to Jyot's place in the middle of the night but was there in less than like five minutes... that was heart pounding, really.

Aaaand, everything in between or has happened afterwards is completely lost on me. I need more nights like that before summer ends, I feel it slipping away, it's effing depressing. I've barely crossed anything off of my "Things To Do in the Summer List" (mostly my fault as I put some impossible things on there). But there are some things I can do. I can't end the summer like this. I neeeeeed to change some things, look forward to some things, let go of some things, dang. I can feel it slipping still!

I'm still reading the HP series from first book to last, and right now I'm on the sixth, the second to last installment, the one with the recent release of the film, Half-Blood Prince... it's definitely one of my favourites in the series, I think the last two have got to be my favs, with the 4th and 5th trailing by an inch. I'm more than halfway done HBP, can't wait to get started on Deathly Hallows, but I can definitely wait to see the chaos ensue, and witness Dumbledore die :( That man is my hero! I really ought to have an entire blog dedicated to Harry Potter, Sheila's brilliant idea. Perhaps before the summer ends or after I've finished the series? I can't wait, it's going to resemble a love letter. I love Harry Potter and J.K. Rowling and really everything about that series. I can't wait to write this HP dedicated blog!

I'm betting myself that my school schedule arrives next week. I already lost my earlier bet, that I would get them some time THIS week, but it hasn't happened, and Friday's come and gone... isn't it always the second to last week of August? Ah well, I suppose now it'll just be the second to last week before summer ends... how depressing.

Summer isn't my favourite season, Spring is, but still, for once and possibly the first time in my life, I'm with everyone else when they wish that maybe summer wouldn't end (because I always look forward to school returning). I'm actually kind of dreading it. But let's put our minds away from that right now, before they stray to that really murky and inscrutable future before us, dear friends!

All right, write in this later, I should try and finish reading HBP6, or catch up with Sheila... I was totally ahead of her in re-reading the whole series, until I let a whole day of being out screw me over, and she absolutely caught up and over took me! Well, I shall finish before her, I freaking will!

Try reading this summer, any of you? All right. Seeya!
Gelina.

Want you to be the one and my only

Bonjour, bonjour, bonjour.

Despite my usual claims that I don't want to go back to school 'cause I'm graduating this year and blah blah blah, I must say that I'm dying out of my mind for my letter from the school. I want my schedule, I want my Passport of Education (if I'm lucky enough) and I want my Newsletter and Calendar and everything! I'm so lksdjflajsdf. I want to see if they changed my schedule from when I saw it on the last day of school, because it was perfect, but no doubt they've changed it up at least a little bit. Better not be big changes. I have History, Eng12H and my huge English-based courses in first semester, and I just want all the writing to be done as fast as possible. I will be so sick of writing when all this is over with, I just know it. :P

The mall yesterday was a totaaaaaal bust. I want to work at the book store :( SO BAD. IT'S LIKE MY DREAM JOB. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS STOCK AND STACK BOOKS, WORK THE REGISTER, YOU'RE JUST SURROUNDED BY BOOKS ALL DAY AND EVERYDAY. Plus you've got the Staff Recommendations which means the staff HAS to read... that is like, no problem for me at all. Of course in my case, they can just stick up A Tree Grows in Brooklyn on my recommendation plaque year round. Or To Kill A Mockingbird. One or the other.... best books I've read in my entire life, did I mention? LOL. Yes, I think I have. :P

I want to see The Time Traveller's Wife sososososososo bad :( It's a good book and it seems for once the movie has done the book some justice, so I have to give it a shot and make sure they have. LOL. Aaaand due to Amanjyot's persistence I must also see if Orphan is any good as well..... it probably isn't. HAHA.

Awesome song of the moment btw (who's lyric I used in the title of my last blog): Break Even by The Script! IT'S LOVELY. What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you? What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're okay? Freaking lovely lyrics, I LISTEN TO THIS SONG EVERYDAY.

All right, I'm going to go, I've absolutely nothing left I want to say.
TA-TA, TOODLES, AU REVOIR, PEACE.

When a heart breaks, no it don't break even

Hullo.

I'll not lie, this week's been tough. Or just the past few days. I dunno. I don't feel like elaborating, I don't wanna think about it or dwell on it in any way at all but if I happen to burst an "ugh" or "as;ldkfja;lskjf" in the middle of this update then you'll know whatever's going on has just popped into my head and I'm frustrated with myself for thinking of it. So now you can count how many times it comes into my head. Wooooooooo. Not.

Shout out to my Dad, who's birthday is today. Love love love love you <3 Maybe I shouldn't say how old he is, that's private, LOL.

AADLKFJASLKDJF.

So hanging around the Mall has made me realize how close school's coming around - I got a whiff of all the school supplies on sale, all the people actually getting a head start and buying all that they need... that's usually a good feeling for me, a great one really, because going back to school and SHOPPING for back to school is like my second Christmas. But right now I just feel resigned. Resigned to my fate that I must graduate and leave high school and work hard and always feel tired and lose myself in books I don't want to lose myself in. Like textbooks, or notebooks or anything school related. I've got that sinking feeling in me, everytime I think about what used to make me so happy. I don't want to go back to school. I want to stay in high school forever :(

Sorry for that really emo thought. I just looove high school too much. I don't want to think about the future or University. (WHICH FREAKING ONE GELINA?) I just don't.

I BOUGHT A TACK BOARD TODAY, YAY! I've been wanting one for as long as Genina's been wanting one, HAHA. Problem is though, I'll probably have to share it with my older sister, and she's undoubtedly going to fill it up with lame college stuff that nobody cares about except for her - lame shhhhhtuff, as per usual. I'm gonna fill it up with my report card and pictures of cool stuff, like zebras. HAHA. Why is my report card NEVER on the fridge?! That's a good question for me to pose you know. My report card is totally fridge worthy, but it always gets stowed away :(

Speaking of my accomplishments on display, I WANT A FREAKING WALL IN THIS HOUSE SO I CAN PUT MY PLAQUES UP SOMEWHERE. They just lay on the sundeck, gathering dust. Who's ever going to see the awards I got if they're just going to sit there doing nothing? I think it's a waste. It's got to go on display so that my kids can see how awesome I was one day. Wow, this is really rather self-centered of me to say, hmm? Well, it's not my fault the plaques are pretty, I honestly think it should be on display largely for that reason... LOL.

lakdjffffffffsdasdfasdf.

SO THE MOVIE, THE UGLY TRUTH? TOTALLY AWESOME. I'm sorry if others didn't think the same but it was SUCH a feel good movie, it even made ME feel good when I thought I wouldn't feel good at all that day. I laughed so hard and clapped my hands at like every hilarious thing, I think all movies should be as feel good as that. LIKE MAMMA MIA TOO. I lurve Mamma Mia. Thank God I've got that on DVD now, HAHA.

One of the things To Do on my Things To Do This Summer list was to be as economically conscious as possible, and I think I can safely say that I have been doing a good job. Although I don't completely finish food that I buy which is a complete waste (where is your money's worth!?) and I've spent more than what I've budgeted, I always go for the cheaper things and consider my bank. I should put this on my list yearly, I bet you I've saved myself some precious dollars! Oooh look at me, I sound like a freaking adult. Whatever.

So I just came to realize that myself and Genina are the only ones in my family that aren't into sports... even my grandparents are into sports, even my own Mom. It's like tennis, basketball and hockey - that is the Holy Trinity of sports in this family, and I'm just not into aaaaaaany of it. Of course I do feel strong pride for Canadian teams, esp the Canucks, but tennis and basketball I couldn't care less about. Wow, some people might kill me for that, HAHA. Sorray. Those sports just aren't my thang.

All right, so I'm going to go. I'm surprised with myself, there isn't as much gibberish here as I thought there would be!

Goooodnight,
Gelina.
