OFSAA was AMAZINGLY SWEET
Massey came in 27th out of 179!!
posting pics now, and then going back to add more details because i know a few people (AMY) are quite anxious to see these!
And Emily has had her hair back/done all throughout this week as well! (ASTOUNDINGLY, she also put on eyeliner during our physics class today! =o)
OFSAA was definitly wonderful, although it's really hard to now remember everything.
It went way too short, for sure.
Bus ride there was fast (props to Ms. Zanin for going to the bathroom first! And then Jessie right after), played some cards, listened to some music, talked, >didn't get any studying that we had planned to do for bio done. Grocery store shopping was fun. Bought a lot of junk ($12 worth of those chocolate-mini eggs that Amy, Jessie and I split), and then got to the hotel, which was really nice, but the rooms weren't as big as they were in the other hotel last year. It didn't take long to get our rooms extremely messy.
Our relay did pretty decent too. Came in 22nd (out of 179 schools or something). Woooh :D
The pool/sauna/hot tub were really really nice as well, but I had only went there once. Went to Swiss Chalet after. The one in Windsor is a lot better, faserious. Didn't go to bed till 11ish after we watched the first episode of the two of 24 which was amaaazing, but incredibly sad. I cannot wait to watch the second epi tonight! And, apparently, I giggle in my sleep as well, according to Amy. We got up in the morning around 6:30am (thanks to my phone and the other alarm that was set because the stupid wakeup call was 30 minutes LATE), and couldn't stop laughing.
The second time Mr. Coulter gave us time to go out and do what we wanted, (on Tuesday) Jessie, Jenny and I stayed in our rooms the entire time, working on our hair/outfits/makeup (I did Jessie's makeup =D that was fun haha) before going out to a 'restuarant' later on in the evening. Mr. Coulter, while doing his room checks, walked in on Jessie blow-drying her hair with only her bra on haha. Whether he saw it or not, he did notice she ran to slam the bathroom door when he walked in. That was high-larious.
Arizona's was shit though, for sure. The only good service i got that night was in the bathroom where the toilets, taps, and soap, which were automatic. The sucky waitress also included the tip on her bill, which was horrible. Oh well, couldn't do much about it. Got back to the hotel, we were given time to go down to the pool, but we stayed at the room, and watched House (GAH I MISSED SCRUBS. hopefully Jason will bring me up to speed on that then) which was goood. We also watched Miami Ink until 11, and then laughed a bit for no reason before getting to sleep. Woke up at 5:30 because Amy had to take a shower (a record! 15 mins for shower, and shaving, and getting dressed!). Wake up call was late AGAIN. (I picked up the phone and said "Way to be on time"). Had to get all of our stuff ready because we were being checked out in the morning. I didn't have to swim on Wed though, which was really niiiice. I got to stay dry! :D
Beginning of the busride back sucked though. I *tried* studying for bio, but it was quite fruitless. But that's ok, because as soon as we got back on after stopping at a service station, I moved to the back to sit in between Jessie and Jenny (there wasn't enough room for Amy/Jessie/Jenny/Oliver/Andrew and I to sit together) who were sitting at the way back of the bus with the junior boys. We starting singing really random old upbeat songs that we hardly knew the words to, and everyone kinda caught on until we didn't remember the words anymore.
Many, many inside jokes. Confused a lot of people, which was amusing.
Can't think of anything else right now either, which sucks because a lot happened.
I'm really depressed that swimming's done.
Pro's of no swimming
+ No longer *really* smelling of chlorine. I'm sure it'll take a while to completely recover from it though
+ No more "hard" practices that we can complain about
+ No more getting up early in the morning to get ready for dryland
+ No more running at dryland
+ No more putting my hair up almost every day of the week
+ No more having to look like a bum every day
+ Skin's clearing up
+ "FREE" time after school
And I'm hating it.
BIO - O CANADA competition
was high-larious.
We spent 15 mins just getting new ideas/getting ready to do it, and then spent almost the rest of the two periods in the caf doing the competition. A few classes decided to come down and watch us, and Mr. Horton took many pictures (none of which i have unfortunitly).
The only reason why we didn't win was because the other class had insturments. And i'm pretty sure it was rigged. boooo.
Mr. P looked kinda pissed off at the end, which made it even more funny.
We also didn't have to do the quiz either! :D
The rest of the day was gooood. Anthro - Got to show the guys how to do pushups (we have this basketball net in our class and if you don't get the ball in, you have to do 10 pushups), Math - didn't take the quiz i missed (YES) and we just kinda chilled. Physics - did my law homework. Law - handed in my homework, played a card game that is called 400, but everyone just callls it the arab game with Jason/Jeremy/Xiao, and I won. English was great too, spent the entire time talking to Annie.
Leaving at 3 am on SUNDAY for my cruise =D
