Quick update, because I am teh lazy and also, I should be doing other things:
1) My sore throat was bothering me all through yesterday, and so we went to the doctor today. Now, I had been imagining all of these random horrible diseases I could have gotten (menengitis, flu, strep throat, a rash from eating berries covered with poison ivy or something) and it turns out that I have a cold.
Yeah, I felt kind of lame.
2) Took French II midterm today. It was pretty easy, I finished it in about an hour, and now all I have to do is wait for Mme. Swann to be available so I can be given the listening part. I was kind of alarmed to notice that there was ABSOLUTELY NO PAST TENSE WHATSOEVER being tested, though. I'm pretty sure it should have been on there. Not that I'm complaining, exactly, but it's slightly unnerving.
3) Apparently, the kids going on workcamp have to have plaster masks made of their faces and painted to look like fruit. Apparently, mom forgot when this was happening, and so I missed doing this with the rest of the group. Apparently, I have to go do this today. Apparently, this is going to involve FREAKING VASELINE SPREAD ALL OVER MY FACE FOR TWENTY MINUTES.
EW EW EW EW EW I HATE VASELINE IT CREEPS ME OUT LIEK WHOA AND IT'S GOING TO BE FREAKING ALL OVER MY FACE AND I'M ALREADY UNCOMFORTABLE ENOUGH WITH THIS STUPID SORE THROAT SO WHY EXACTLY MUST WE ADD VASELINE TO THE MIX?!?!!
*hides in corner*
EDIT: Actually, much as I hate to admit it, it wasn't that bad. I was incredibly freaked out by the Vaseline going over my EYES, and a little worried about it going over my mouth, but the actual time that my face was covered by plaster-of-paris wasn't that bad. It did feel nice to have it all off though.
4) Abbykins: Due to the fact that mom wants me to sleep tonight, I can't go with you to the midnight Potter party thing and mock Gryffindors. :( Actually, since we're getting our books at 7:30 AM on the 16th, it'd be kind of pointless for me to go because I don't think I'd be able to get the book yet, and I certainly don't intend to stay up all night if I'm not going to be able to read the book. Sorry... definitely next time, though. I'm not going to miss going to the 7th book party even if I have pneumonia (just watch that be prophetic. Curse you, Ironic Overpower.)
5) There is no five. I'm just messing with you.
