Rrrr! Saaalmon!
Bonjour,
Yesterday my mom called when I got home from school and here's how the conversation went:
Her: Je vais te parler en francais parce qu'un de mes eleves est dans ma classe.
Me: *refuses to speak French back* OK...
Her: Est-ce que c'est d'accord si je reste un peu plus tard pour finir quelque chose?
Me: Yeah
Her: Superbe
Me: Good thinking on speaking French there, Mom, you wouldn't want the student to hear anything personal.
Her: ....Au revoir *click*
Heeeeee. I was so amused. I love her, but she is a tad insane.
I've got my PINK iPod nano working! Which is very surprising, seeing as how I suck at anything involving computers/electronics/anything with a wire. I was very proud. Nevermind that I missed the first step I had to do and subsequently lost 3 hours figuring it out...
AMG Mr. Way was our sub in chemistry yesterday! Best chemistry class this year. He's so awesome. I'd forgotten. And Deirdre wasn't there to hair-flip/skirt-lift. Aw. But hee when he stepped into the classroom I/Alex was/were like "....Julie's going to flip out" and baha.
My views on Excalibur -
8-year olds on crack filmed/directed it (this view was shared by Jake). The cuts are retarded. What's with all the nudity? What is with that Mordred guy?!??? Creepiest kid ever. King Arthur is a HORRIBLE actor. As is Merlin. And wtf eww Morgana sleeping with her brother? That's really really gross. I didn't think I'd ever say this, but I'd really rather have watched Beowulf.
My dad picked me up from work last night, and my aunt had given him something to give to me. Two pink straws from Baskin Robbins. I had NO idea I was this lame. No. Clue. (they actually have Baskin Robbins printed on the straw...just because something's pink doesn't mean I must own it. Especially when talking about straws.)
The picture on my potc calendar for October is so intense and hot! Johnny's all *rawr! brandishes sword* HOW CAN JIAQI NOT HAVE SEEN PIRATES????? Lucky for her (and me =D) we're watching it in music class next Friday. I'm psyched. Way better than Lion King...
We have a playing test Tuesday and I didn't bring home my trumpet. I knew this would happen. Last playing test I didn't practice until 5 minutes before class, and I got a really high mark. So I think the same is going to happen this time. Except it's not very likely it will work out for me. I'm pathetic.
And I have to do that notes assignment for Chemistry that we got a week ago, and I have to finish the notes assignment from yesterday, and I have to do all the math review (and actually understand it since there's another test...bah) and I have to write out the Excalibur answers in somewhat coherent sentences. That will be fun.
And I have to go to work for 3:00, but buses are stupid and so I have to catch one at 2:24 and then wait around for half an hour. If I took the next bus then I would be 5 minutes late. Fie upon it. Birds have it so easy.
I am hungry. Off to scavenge for something that tastes remotely good, i.e. NOT organic yogurt, chocolate soy drink, sticks-of-bran cereal, walnuts, or whole wheat english muffins. I love english muffins, and I like basically anything else whole wheat, but whole wheat english muffins are just not good.
Wishing you happy turkey love (as opposed to depressed turkey love...),

p.s. My mom's buying me a new bookshelf for my new room! I'm very excited. It's bright red and it fits in with my red/pink/orange/purple themed rooooom. But I don't think she'll buy it until we move, which makes sense, but is irritating because I want it NOW. Hmph.
