House Rules

I really wish that I didn't have to be here. Math class is pointless if you know how to do it already. So if he wants to be rude and not let me type, then fine I will blog on pen and paper. Just look up once in a while and pretend I'm taking notes and it will be all good. Joy, another 3 hours of this class. Rolling my eyes would give away that I'm not taking math notes...
Anyway... I'm reading this book called House Rules (look Leschert, I punctuated it right!) by Jodi Picoult. One word. Amazing. She is my all time favorite author. Other books by her are My Sister's Keeper (also a movie) and Nineteen Minutes. SO FANTASTIC!!!

Anyway I am going to shorten this post and stop blabbing because I am so friggen behind!!!! I'm only on "H"... So disappointed in myself! I have excuses....-ish. I have been performing wonderful music!!! Ok, I better move on to I now (lol that soudns funny)

Oh oh oh and update on my life I'm supposed to be writing a reflection on this book... how ironic. But I would rather blog so.... as long as she doesn't walk by.... =P It's ok I went to parent teacher interviewy thingys and just got a whole bunch of praise.... ok it was more like

Teacher: Well we will be working on characterization
Mom: (to me) the book your reading should be good for that (to the teacher) House Rules?
Teacher: I haven't read that one, but I have read lots of others by Jodi Picoult. I love how she changes characters like that
*go on to talk about other books mentions above*
Teacher: But some of her books are kinda mature...
Mom: Yeah I keep those off her bookshelf
Me: *sitting there acting like I don't exist*

Yeah well that's my life!

Grenades

So I have been listening to the radio lately, and this song has been fairly popular. So, because I couldn't think of another "G" word, I'll show you my thoughts on the song

Grenade - by Bruno Mars

Easy come, easy go
That's just how you live, oh
Take, take, take it all,
But you never give
(ok, so I have to admit, this is pretty cool)
Should of known you was trouble from the first kiss,
Why were they open?
(seriously, dude, in order to know her eyes were open yours would have to be)

Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked,
Cause what you don't understand is
I’d catch a grenade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Uh.... I don't believe you!)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah) (Ok, maaaaaybe this one)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah) (No way man, he has way too much money for that)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh
I would go through all this pain,
Take a bullet straight through my brain,
  (Sure buddy, you just keep thinking that)
Yes, I would die for ya baby; (Oh I'm sure you would. Nice try.)
But you won't do the same (If only.)


No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue beat me till I'm numb
Tell the devil I said “hey” when you get back to where you're from
Mad woman, bad woman,
(Obviously, you don't love her. She's bad.)
That's just what you are, yeah,
You’ll smile in my face then rip the breaks out my car
(This verse is amazing! Best in the song)
(I just skipped the chorus again)
If my body was on fire, ooh
You’ d watch me burn down in flames
(Yes, I would. And so would she.)
You said you loved me you're a liar (Can't you take a hint?!?!)
Cause you never, ever, ever did baby...

F.... Wait I can't ruin the joke!

This post is going to be about joking. So be prepared to laugh.

What starts with F and ends in UCK?
firetruck!
\
Ok I got that off Facebook (I wish I wasn't such a Facebook addict... I can stop any time I want too!)

Now for one my very funny Uncle Bob (everyone has an uncle bob...) told me.

A man goes to a councillor and says he would like to go to university. The councillor says "I think you should take logic"
Man: Why would I take logic?
Councillor: Let me explain. Do you own a weed whacker?
Man:  Yes, I do in fact own a weed whacker.
C: Logic says that you have a well kept lawn.
Man: Yes, I have a relatively well kept lawn.
C: So, if you have a well kept lawn, logic says you own a fairly large house.
Man: Yes, my house is fairly large.
C: A fairly large house... ok, logic says you probably have kids.
Man: Yeah... I have kids.
C:  Ok, and logic says that you must be a heterosexual man.
Man: Wow! You got all that from the fact that I have a weed whacker! I'm going to take logic.

So, the next day he goes up to a friend of his and states he is going to take logic.
Friend: Why would you take logic?
Man: Let me explain. Do you own a weed whacker?
Friend: No.
Man: You're gay.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA SOOOOO FUNNY!!!! So now for my adventures in math class.  So we have a sub today, right? Now, Mr. T (as he actually calls himself, I think) left a review thing in our textbook to do. Well, I had already done it in my attempts to prove I did not need to be in this class (at the beginning of the year, and we are just getting to it NOW! urgh) and anyway I was DONE already. So the sub comes and stands behind me while I am blogging, and then gives me worksheets THAT WE HAD ALREADY DONE and said it was review. I hate math. No no, that's a lie. I hate math class. But it's all good now because I get to go to gym and dance. You guys should all throw a pity party for me. After 9 years of my life on music and yet I am getting instructed my a gym teacher who can't clap to the beat. SOOO painful. I should ask to do my harmony (a UNIVERSITY level music course) instead of learning how to clap on the beat. Can't believe it. I hate Friday's. Ok, I'm done with my pity party (I'm still waiting for cake!) Adios!

Extraordinary!

Extraordinary is one of those insanely spelled words (oh and sorry that I am behind... I will catch up eventually!) Some people say it like, extra-ordinary, or like extraordinary. How do you say it? Who knows. Anyway, now I will explain why I am so behind.

1. We had an exam on Wednesday during math (therefore unable to blog)

2. I have had festival. Therefore extremely busy performing.

3. I haven't had much sleep, because on Tuesday night I had to babysit (I actually enjoy doing it, so it's like free money), and then Wednesday night I had accompanying (which takes so much energy btw, I took my pulse onstage and it was like 140) and then piano lesson and then flute duet practice (yes, with Rosanne). And then last night I was so excited I could sleep because, because... Oh wait it's coming later...





ME AND ROSANNE GOT HONOURS ON OUR DUET!!! (Extraordinary!) Wooooooohooooo! I was so excited! We are going to celebrate by going to Dairy Queen and eating a whole ice cream cake by ourselves!!! (Apparently, as someone so rudely stated, that might make me fat, but I countered with the fact that I had recently joined the track team...)

Ok, since I am only on E, I better cut it of there. I will  get caught up, I will get caught up!


Oh, btw, I passed 2,000 views on my blog! Thank you guys so much! I shall take the time to shout out to all my new followers, thank you so much! I'm glad you have shown interest in my blog.... haha. Seriously, that's amazing. Help me reach 3,000! =D!

Drama Class!

This post is obscure and insanely funny. I will only say so once. You have been warned.

Drama Class. A class not for the weak of mind. A class that you will come down with a respiratory disease if you laugh at everything. I am going to give you a few scenerios, but feel free to leave now if you are pregnant, nursing, drinking wine/coffee, needing to pee, or have asthma.

Scenario 1: So we play an improv game called park bench. There is someone on the bench, and you pretend it's a stranger and have to make them leave. So I'm sitting there, you know, minding my own buisness and this girl comes up to me and says "You would go perfectly with my collection". CREEPED OUT!!! I would be running away from that bench.

Scenario 2: Another improv game. It's called freeze frame (you might of heard of this one....) So two people are on stage, acting out a scenario. Anyone can yell FREEZE and go and take one of there place, and change the scene. So I am laying on stage, looking up at the stars with my buddy Andy, when he starts to scream "That star is coming towards us! It's getting bigger! I bet it's a meteor, or a shooting star, or pluto, or..... MY MOTHER?!?!?!?" and then some guy (lets call him Trout) yells freeze. Wait, wait it gets better. He takes my place laying on the floor, then stars like trying to get away from that spot yelling "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY BED!" to Andy. Funny. Reeeeeeeally funny.

Scenario 3: Ok, I had nothing to do with this one, which is probably why it's so funny =P. It was another improv game (they are so funny!) called Evil Twin. So, Jay-Jay and Trout were on stage. They were dating and going to "meet the parents". So it's all going fine, but then Trouts evil twin Morgan takes his place. Morgan insults the parents, calling them fat and ugly. Then Trout had to come back in a justify. Then Jay-Jay's evil twin comes in (Shea-bear) comes in and says "Now if you could just show us to our room, we need to get busy. Then Morgan comes in and says "You know what I'm going to be doing with her in there. Nevermind, I won't tell you, you will be hearing us anyway" Then the good twins come back and justify that they are going to be doing algebra homework. The mother says

"So you can do it on the table"

The evil twin comes back "Damn right we will do it RIGHT on the table!

Ok, that was funny =D

Catastrophic Canadians!

 
Look Mrs. Leschert, I made an alliteration! *rolls her eyes* Anyway, Day 3 of A-Z Blogging Challenge! I wasn't sure what to blog about today, so I consulted my trustworthy friends. They were were like "Cold!" "Cats!" "Caroling!" No, no, no I've already thought of those things! I need something that jumps! So we came up with Catastrophic Canadians! We ARE a troubled bunch....


When you think Canada, you probably think cold. Well, that much is true. It is cold here. But, some places are colder than others, for sure. For example, here in the praries, we still have, like, huge amounts of snow. So much, that my dog (miniture schnauzer) can jump our chain link fence. Because there is so much snow. In April. But people in places like Toronto and Vancouver complain if there is like 10 cm of snow. Pfftt.

Canadians: Exibit A (aka me) So my last status on Facebook was "I've been trying to get a tan, but I can only last a few minutes outside at a time without a coat" TRUE STORY

Exibit B: Justin Beiber. A disaster. That's all I have to say.

Exibit C: All of the politicians. Why do we need to have another election? Harper was fine... They didn't believe that his spending thingy was right or something like that and then all the other guys ganged up on him and now we have to spend MORE money on another election. I will be so pissed if Harper wins again and we just wasted all that money.... urgh.

Now, I will decipher a couple of myths/truths

Canadians say "eh" a lot. TRUE! But, it's not like you notice, really. Just the way you talk. And it's not exagerated or anything. It is usually followed by a ? as in eh? They some of the annoyances in my class will have competitions, where the first one to not end a sentence in eh? wins. REALLY annoying.

Canadians ride polar bears to school. Uhh, think this one through for a minute.

Canadians live in igloos Ok now this is getting insane. Over the top. NO MORE!!! NOOOOO MORE!!!



Now, I will take a moment to bring up another "C" word! Well, not really a word. *drumroll* My friend's blog! She is like.... a really good friend of mine! You know, the one that I talked about here, and here and a whole bunch of other places. You interested yet? You should be. Go check it out! Chocochan-chibiko. Look, even two C's!!!!! Ok I got to go, do my harmony =/ adios!

Big Bang Theory!

So, this is like my most recent obsession. A quick summary (for those of the blogging world that do not watch it as religiously as I do) it is about these four guys who are all like super nerds. Sheldon, a theoritical physicist with an IQ of 187, the uber geek that really sucks at telling sarcasm amoung many other things. Leonard, an experimental physicist with an IQ of 173, and probably the most level-headed of the group. He is the one that is always trying to have a relationship with women, and always fails. Oh and then there is this girl, Penny, who is the dumb blonde that hangs out with them because she gets free food. Anyway, if you still have no idea what the show is about, try watching it instead of trying to figure out what I just said =P

Now, quotes from the show! (Thanks to http://the-big-bang-theory.com/quotes/)

Howard: If it's "creepy" to use the Internet, military satellites, and robot aircraft to find a house full of gorgeous young models so I can drop in on them unexpected, then fine, I'm "creepy".
> this is the episode when Howard and Rajesh are trying to find the America's Top Model House

Sheldon: I made tea.
Leonard: I don't want tea.
Sheldon: I didn't make tea for you. This is my tea.
Leonard: Then why are you telling me?
Sheldon: It's a conversation starter.
Leonard: That's a lousy conversation starter.
Sheldon: Oh, is it? We're conversing. Checkmate.

Sheldon: Why are you crying?
Penny: Because I'm stupid!
Sheldon: That's no reason to cry. One cries because one is sad. For example, I cry because others are stupid, and that makes me sad.

Rajesh: Why so glum, chum?
Sheldon: Apparently you can't hack into a government supercomputer and then try to buy uranium without the Department of Homeland Security tattling to your mother.

Zack: Is that the laser? It's bitchin'.
Sheldon: Yes. In 1917, when Albert Einstein established the theoretic foundation for the laser in his paper "Zur Quantentheorie de Strahlung, his fondest hope was that the resultant device be bitchin'.
> In order to get this quote, you would have to know that Zack is Penny's stupid tough guy boyfriend

Sheldon: I am not crazy, my mother had me tested.
> I use this line a lot.

Penny: I give up. He's impossible!
Sheldon: I can't be impossible; I exist! I think what you meant to say is, 'I give up; he's improbable'.

Now, if you didn't find any of these funny, you need to go watch the show. Then come back, and then you can say none of these are funny. But you won't. Because that would be lying =) Thanx for reading!

Achoo!!!!

It's my first day of A-Z Blogger Challenge, and I'm so excited! Look! I even followed to A-Z part of the rule! So today is April Fool's Day (I guess I could have titled it that), but, I didn't get to play a trick on anyone today... =( I was tempted though! My dad always talks about how he saran wrapped one of his co-workers van.... It's so easy to! You just go up to the car with a buddy, and toss over, under, over, under. And than the can't get their door's open..... haha it wouold be sooooooooo funny! And I was determined today was going to be the day!!! I actually got Rosanne and walked around the highschool parking lot with a roll of saran wrap scoping out potential victims... but it IS spring break...

BUT

There was one teacher's car... (ok, I'm not a stalker, she has her name on her licence plate -_-) But we would have had an audience of druggies... so we chickened.


Now the real reason for my title..... drum roll please *du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du*

RANDOM FUN FACTS ABOUT SNEEZES!!!
(haha I even forgot I used to do random questions/facts on Fridays... and it's Fridays =D)

  • You can sneeze at up to 100 miles per hour >Wow!!! That's one speedy sneeze!
  • Iguanas sneeze the most often of all animals on Earth
  • You can spray saliva and other particles up to 5 feet during a sneeze > ewwwwww!
  • It is impossible to sneeze in your sleep
  • Sneezing too hard can fracture a rib > now I'm kind of scared of sneezing... =S
  • Suppressing a sneeze can cause a blood vessel in your head or neck to burst > "yes sir, I would rather have your millions of germs all over my hand than have you burst a blood vessel or something"
  • Saying "lamp" or "cucumber" repeatedly when feeling a sneeze coming can actually stop it > hmm...

Did you know there are things that can make you sneeze? Like, weird things? For me, it's Dentyne Ice Gym. Like, not stick gum, but the other kind, in the packages? I always sneeze. But only once! So bizarre. Anyway here are some of them:
  • Sunshine > This one is a little questionable... Really?
  • Plucking your eyebrows > Apparently it has something to do with hitting a nerve =)
  • Working out > Exercise? Makes you sneeze? Who knew.
  • Making Love > HAHAHAHAHA not that I would know... Must be kind of awkward "Just give me a minute, I feel a sneeze coming on!" Wow, I wonder why? Never mind, don't really want to know...
And that's all I got for today. Again, thanks for reading! Always appreciate! And, if you did know, this A-Z Bloggers thingy is everyday of April, excepts Sundays I post, each starting with a different letter in alphabetical order. Actually, the last four sentences all began with my letter of the day! (btw, I included a video for your entertainment!)


Look! I'm being all computer geeky!
