A smell of wine and sweet perfume

Bonjour, bonjour, bonjour! Just an uber quick thing to say before I continue.......!

THANKS EVERYBODY FOR MAKING GLOW SUCH A SUCCESS, a sold out dance, we did it! ALL GRADE 10 AND 12 STUDENTS, BUY YOUR SENIOR SNOWBALL TICKETS BEFORE DEC. 3RD! It's going to be BETTER than GLOW! :D

Yeah, so even though it was errr two weeks ago? Glow was definitely the bomb and as a member of Grad Council it is my duty to talk about how awesome it was and continue to advertise for our upcoming events. OUR TRADITIONAL SENIOR SNOWBALL COMIN' UP, IT'S GONNA BE GREAT! Basically same info as (I should know, I stayed after school to help Genina finish the banner that went up in the plaza today - look out for it tomorrow if you're cool BD Hehehe.)

Honestly, so much to say but my mind is a very poor capsule for short term things :) UMMMM yes. Believe it or not, report cards are actually coming out soon, and despite my overly worrying about basically ALL of my classes, it seems I'm getting straight As... hopefully :( I swear, I was contemplating very, very, very dark things whenever I thought I wouldn't get an A in Law... and I actually was worried about this class more than all the others. More than Lit, more than English Honours. I've been testing soooo poorly despite handing in homework and projects worth full marks. I seriously need to do better though, I don't think I'm working as hard as I could be... well actually, I know I could be working a lot harder. Oh me.

LIT - 92% (That is AWESOME. I went up four percent!)
LAW - 91%(I dropped one percet but that's great considering how poorly I've been doing)
ENG H - 91%
(YEEEEEEESSSS!!!!!!!!!!)
Second semester classes - HOPEFULLY As!

I'm watching 90210 right now, and omg, it is so so so dirty. They might as well be showing the full on stuff they "trying" to censor. No point in showing like half a sex scene and then cutting off to the next scene, they basically showed all of it. I hate that about some shows, honestly.

Btw, because Claire took over the laptop when she came over to watch the Pacquiao fight, I was forced to watch Glee and I'm now pretty into it :( Can't believe it!

I'm totally going to bed now. I just stopped typing for 20 minutes to watch the rest of 90210 and now it's 11pm and I'm sleepy as heck. Gooooooooodnight person!

Picture you're the queen of everything

Studying for my Law test tomorrrow is a total fail so I gave up for a bit so I could update this 8-)

I love love love love Halloween, although I wasn't as hype for it as I was the last few years, not until I was about to get out of the house was I starting to get antsy. Actually, it could also have been earlier than that when Genina and I decided to completely change the lame decorations around our house, which simply included Halloween coloured streamers and two pumpkins. We arranged the two steamers around our front steps, and put this witch looking thing in the centre of them. We put a bowl of green and white foamy stuff with bugs inside of it, and then we found scary music to blare when the trick or treaters came :D It was my most creative year! This poor kid dressed in a Transformer's outfit got his Dad to ring the doorbell for him 'cause he was scared to go near the witch :( And that means it was a success! BWAHA.

The costumes at school this year were totally off the top. I loved how I saw something random every second. Next year, I'm going as a big old book. OR A HARRY POTTER STUDENT. This one girl dressed up as a Ravenclaw and that was the most epic thing I've ever seen in my entire life... A HOGWARTS STUDENT? That has my name written all over it. Either I'm that or a Clone... or Darth Vader. I'm leaning towards a Clone.... the outfits nicer.

So Amanjyot, Donald and Kim came over to trick or treat in my neighbourhood, and we started off really sucking. Our first few neighbours seriously didn't open their doors and it was a reaaaally slow start. AND OMG. We got to like fourth or fifth house, and these two boys that were seven or eight were already waiting at the door. We got the candy, but then they WOULD NOT STOP FOLLOWING US. We were nice and everything, but then they started shoving their plastic weapons in our faces and jumping out behind bushes or cars after we left houses we trick or treated at. Even when we yelled at them they wouldn't go away! Not until Genina grabbed the dude's plastic grim reaper stick thing and said she'd talk to their parents did they back off. Amanjyot yelled too. Sadly, we seventeen year olds stand no chance against YOUNG SEVEN YEAR OLDS. Not with plastic weapons at least!

I came hom with my regular two filled bags 8D. We tried watching Paranormal Activity but that didn't work out. Siiiiiiiiiigh. But we ordered Prom Night instead, and that was alrighty. But now I have candy laying around everywhereeee. Seriously. Especially since Genina got as much candy as I did, it's like a small explosion of candy occurred in the corner of my house.

And now that Halloween's over, everything that I put off is now facing me head on, and looking very ugly might I add. Granted, I finished my English (although this STUPID STUPID project won't be officially over until I present it) and all I kind of have left is to study for Law... which I'm screwed for... DLKJSFDLKSFDJ. UGH. I don't like school right now. I really really really don't. Everything's going waaaay too fast and I feel like I'm still going really slow. Especially on applying for things. Just bleh. Slow, slow, slow.

Homework list!

LIT (88%)
  • Hamlet monolgue

LAW (91%)

  • Study for test

ENG (??%)

  • Extended notes
  • Powerpoint
  • I hate the Spanish Inquisition :)

So that last one obviously wasn't homework, but I just had to put it out there.

I'm gonna keep on studying. Study, study, study!! No time to waste!

I really really wish that I had a really good book to read. 'Cause I haven't read one in a long time.

Sincerely,
Gelina (:
