Kiwanis is done and over with, so now I have the Mother's Day recital to prepare for.
. . .T_____T
But anyway. I need help! :D I was informed that I need to say a little something to my mother before my performance.
What can I say? T____T
Worst comes to worst I'll find a short poem and just recite that. But I need to tell my teacher what I'll be saying by this Saturday...T_T;;;; When she told me I tried to squirm out of doing it, but no go.
Hmm. Hmmmm. T_T;;;;;
Ooooh!Does this mean I have an excuse for eating spoonfuls of ketchup now?
McDonald's here NEED to start serving rice. Sometimes I just really don't want a burger, but a good rice lunchbox (overflowing with good ol' MSG, of course).
I think I strained something. The muscles around my left hip aches whenever I move.
Mmm. So they found
Cecilia Zhang several days ago. No surprise; to be honest, who really expected her to still be alive? Yes, the hope bubble was there, but realistically...no. A tragedy nonetheless.
I feel for the hiker who stumbled upon her remains. How psychologically scarring. But it was lucky that her remains were even found.
Edith, her mother, and I were talking about it on the way home from the University yesterday - we placed our guess on it being an act of revenge [on the parents]. Probably something they did back in China, before they moved to Canada. Time to bring in the Chinese government and weed that murderer out! Let's just hope they don't botch it up.
Slightly off-topic: dear news article editors, why are you not doing your job? At least keep her name *consistent*. Cecilia, not Cecelia!
Dear
Adrienne Clarkson:
You bring shame to Chinese-Canadians with your lavish spending ways.
Get out of my sight.
Much love, Cecilia.
Dear
Liberal Party of Canada:
Ever since I discovered Canadian politics, I have been more or less supportive of your party. For the most part.
You disappoint me.
Much love, Cecilia.
P.S. I love your
"Canada" logo and all, but that still does not justify the ONE MILLION you spent on it. You may not have noticed, but hey, that's our money you're spending. Thank you for reading.
Dear Mr.
Paul Martin:
You sucked as a finance minister.
And as far as I can tell, you still suck. Except now you suck as a prime minister.
Much love, Cecilia.
Dear
Stephen Harper and
Conservative Party of Canada:
I never really cared about you guys. Okay, so when I was younger I supported Stephen Harper simply because he was Calgarian.
But now, it's time to kick some seriously corrupted Liberal butt.
Much love, Cecilia.
You are Maguro or Tuna! You are the Japanese
sweetheart. Everyone loves you! You know what
people like and you treat them to it.

Courtesy of Dilbert Newsletter 54.0, Induhvidual stories/quotes:
(1) I was working at a small family-owned company. At an all-hands meeting, the pointy-haired president of the company (the founder's son) announced that he had added a new employee to the staff: his daughter. "Now, some people might accuse me of incest, but this is actually a good business decision." There was a long pause before one of us wretches asked: "Uh...don't you mean 'nepotism'?"
(2) Boss pep talk: "Last year we were like lambs. This year we are going to be sheep!"
