(no subject)
Oh wow. So tired. Um...okay so.
Houses:
Looked at houses in Wilmslow, Knutsford, Hale, Cheadle, Macclesfield, and one more I can't remember...yeah I know those names mean nothing to any of you, lol. Oh those are all villages outside of Manchester, by the way. Manchester being the second largest city in the UK and home to Manchester United and Manchester City football (i.e. soccer) teams.
Schools:
Looked at Abbey College...it was cool. Had a brief chat with their French teacher (Mme Gislaine) so she could do a little rush assessment of me. She said I was prolly university level (-squeal-) and I might be bored in their classes...but that she'd also loooove to have me, heh. Also looked at a school called Kings which was built in 1502...before our COUNTRY was established kids...blows my mind, I'll tell ya. Anyway so it was REALLY snobby and rugby-oriented but I talked to their Spanish/French department head in those two languages and apparently, spanish vocab aside, I'm pretty much fluent in those languages? Awesome. Then saw a school called Cheadle Hulme which reminded me a LOT of Archmere only it's about 100 years older than Shmere and made up of like 9 buildings and does grades K-12 and then the two A-levels which are like freshman/sophomore year of college. Nice. I kinda like Cheadle Hulme the best, to be honest, plus to be able to go to college courses but be in the same school as my little brothers and help them adapt would be nice I think.
Um I should REALLY be doing the Chem, Math, or Lit that I blew off all week (Yeah I did like...Spanish and French and French AP and that's it, hah).
I'm in NHS...nifty?
OH the teacher at Kings said that regardless of where I end up going to school, I should come in some day and speak to the kids my own age in Spanish or French and talk about issues America's facing (cause they do a national issue's module) and I was so flattered that she totally meant it! MAN that'd be so kick ass to get to teach in the languages I love...oh man.
Oh and they speak Castellano in the UK which really freaked me out cause it can be hard to understand at times. -shrugs-
The hotel soap or something is making my skin ITCH LIKE A MOTHER DEAR GODS I MIGHT DIE.
ugh. that was unpleasent. hot shower helped.
I missed a lot of people this week. Like...almost everyone. Notably...well you all know them.
When I got back home...I was welcomed warmly/excitedly on one hand and what my feeble and exhausted mind interprets as indifferent on the other:
"did you miss me?" -me, jokingly
"terribly" - please please please let that be said seriously
ha I listened to nothing but Blondie all week and it's great...all the songs running through my head...mmm.
Smoking age in England is 16...crazy.
Almost had an in-flight encounter with the boy in 23G...heh.
Met an INCREDIBLY beautiful girl in a café we ate in...so gorgeous...wish I'd taken a picture.
WAY WAY WAY too much time spent with my family. enough said.
Going in half-day tomorrow...screw the possibility of a demerit...I'll take it cause there is NO WAY I am able to get up for school tomorrow...my bioclock says it's 12:30 already...ha. nuts.
I'''''''''''m rambling...and I kinda want to see everyone tomorrow and I dunno I missed the bad with the good in a way even though the 3-9 rehearsal tomorrow isn't that exciting. We get a dinner break...right?
itching again...maybe England gave me some horrible flesh-eating rash? Cooooool.
I can do the accent almost perfectly...it comes REALLY naturally after you're surrounded by it for a week, heh. I had a lot of trouble not slipping into it when I was speaking to people, especially other kids.
Speaking of kids....happy anniversary to two of my personal favorite people!
Also...happy V-day one day in advance to all...
...ALSO Aaron turns EIGHTEEN the day after tomorrow AAAAHH!!! Not cool, man. ha 'cept it is VERY COOL.
DANA RAY MCCLOSKEY IM ME, CALL ME, EMAIL ME, SEND A PIGEON...I want to talk to yoooooou...-misses/loves-
hm that might be all.
P.s. - reading that book Tori told me about. It's awesome.
