Great expectations!, I hated that book. We had to read it in 9th and it sucked, i found it so difficult! (BookRags did most of the work for us). Besides the literature teacher hated me cause i always missed her classes to go to choir . We got to watch the movie also but it was R-rated and we had to skip some parts. But we never finished the book, we were suppoused to do so the following year but all the literature theachers were dismissed because they changed the International examinations, and thank god they don´t require Great Expectations!

It's so horrible! We have to take a test every week. We have to read eight chapters a week. Sparknotes is my hero! But our teacher gives us the most nit picky questions! Like "What is the color of Pip's shoes?" The color of your face after I burn Great Expectations!!!!! It's major suckage!

I had two midterms this week and I finally got a night's rest last night. It was good. hee hee. I also had that model thing due yesterday... it came out pretty well. I ended up doing the presentation board, because I certain guy in our group was soooo incompotent. Argh. Well, if we let him do it, we would all look like elementary kids, not third year architecture students. In other news, I carved my first pumpkin ever this week, ha ha. I attempted to carve the eiffel tower, but that didn't work too well. I think I'm going to buy a pumpkin this weekend and carve Jack from The Night Before Christmas.

God bless saturdays. My only day to sleep! It felt great. I went to bed really late though because I wanted to finish the Half Blood Prince. When I did finish though I couldn't go to sleep because I kept crying! Wonderful book. Beats the crap out of Great Expectations. My sister attempted to carve a Captain Jack pumpkin once. Yeah... that didn't turn out that good. So we stick wiht the regular pointy teeth and triangle eyes. Much easier.

Today in theater, we had to put Halloween makeup on someone. The person that did me made me look like the corpse bride! I had these dark circles around my eyes and I had stitches for my mouth. I ran on the bus so I could be the first one on. I scared the crap out of everybody! It was great!

Today we had like 32ºC it was so hot and i was stuck at school until 5 wearing the stupid uniform, luckily i went to beach afterwards, it was so nice!!, I really miss summer!! School sucked:I had 2 tests, one on chemistry (spanish) and one on language: We had to comment on a passage, stupid AICE!, and guess what the passage was about...GREAT EXPECTATIONS!!, it was a transcript from when Pip meets the convict for the first time, and the worst part is that having read it actually helped, as backgroud information, etc.. I think i did pretty well, but I´m quite blue today... I got a 5,50 on the listening part of french and now I´m sacared of having to sit for the DELF in november... but i spoke to the teacher and she said I´ll do fine, I´m so nervous!! Tomorrow we have a long jump test, it´s so fun!!, 3m is the passing grade which is not that much.

We had a test today called the benchmark test. We took the test for English today. We take the math tomorrow. Anywho, they had part of Great Expectations on this test too!! One of the guys yelled "I can't get away from it!" It was funny. We have a test on that book tomorrow actually. So many tests!!!

Gosh, I'm sorry for neglecting this board so much, my life has been so busy and getting my hands on a computer is sometimes the last thing on my mind. Once again, I HATE 7 AM classes! Especially when the professor hates it when we put him "on the spot"... Uh, that's what teachers are for. Gosh... I'm exahausted, I was in the woodshop for 8 hours... and I had to do of most of the drilling and it was definitely tiring. I'm covered in saw dust right now. We had to make bases for our final model. We went to the site, it's on a cliff on Pismo Beach. Apparentley POTC3 is filming there on Friday, according to my roommate. I guess Friday would be a good day to check out the site again. hee hee. Or Johnny watch.
Oh my gosh, and then two nights ago, my car wouldn't budge out of park... it was sooo annoying... but with the help of my friends and a day later, my brake switch was fixed and my car is drivable!! Yay. Remember one thing when you go to college: make friends with electrical engineers... hee hee. They most likely can fiz your car.

Well, yesterday wasn't a very pleasant day either. I got invited to a breakfast party because I got student of the month ^_^ It turns out the lady that invited us is the evil teacher that always gives me the death glares!!! I was so uncomfortable in there. I could feel her eyes peircing me!! Devil lady!!! Anywho, back to awesome news... Pirates 3! WeeHoo! You should go to Pismo Beach and be a geeky fan girl! I would. No screaming. That's annoying. I was in shock, but the girl behind me definitly was not!
Glad you car is fiz! Haha!

i havent had the best week either. First i've got the absolute worst case of poison ivy! It's so horrible. It's on my eyes, arm, ears and neck. It's so disgusting and keeping me from volleyball. I might not be able to go to the tournament on sat. But basket ball is starting soon which is making me happy! I missed my C-teamers!
i've got a spanish report due tomrrow! I didn't bring it home so i can't work on it. then i've got two tests tomrrow that i didn't exactly study for. Tomorrow's gonna be great! NOT!
That be really cool to see Johnny. When he was in Salt Lake, Utah i was supposed to be there to visit my cousins, who live really close to that city, but i never went cause we didn't have the time. I was mad, but was over it the next day.

Wait, why was Johnny in Utah? That is so random. Well folks, the Halloween partying has officially begun tonight. I don't know why tonight, but it just has.... and it will last till Tuesday night. It's crazy. I carved a better pumpkin tonight... I'm so proud of myself There is so much drama going on this week... apparently one of my friends likes me, but it's just so weird to me. You'd think that a blonde hair, blue eyed, surfer hippie would be dreamy.... ha ha. He's a great guy, but he just does way too much crazy stuff for my liking. I don't think I'm going tomorrow... but I hear that they put these barracades so that you can't see a thing. And some people come from San Diego and wait 6 hours just to have a chance of meeting someone famous. I guess I'll leave that responsiblity of being star-struck to them.

There was a girl in my theater class that carved a pumpkin and it had th3e skull nd the swords from Pirates on it! It was awesome! It looked exactly like it! There were a lot of cool ones. I could never carve something really cool. It'd be deformed if I did it.

I carved a Jack pumpkin from the Night Before Christmas... it came out pretty good. Yeah, my Eiffel tower pumpkin kinda got infested with a crap load of mold, so I had to throw it out... it sucks how it didn't last till Halloween.

My friend had a big fatty sleepover last night. It was pitch black outside and we played hide and go seek. Yes, a kids game, but where she lives is huge and you can hide anywhere. It was fun. Then we played Super Smash Brothers. Of course, I got the crap beat out of me by Kirby! Kirby and Pikachu ganged up on me! I lasted for long time though, so I was quite happy. We played a crap load of Halloween games too.

I guess seeing stuff from the Holocaust is a bit scary. I have no idea what's special about a jazz museum but my grandad can play the drums really good. He has jazz music in the background and he plays his little beat on the drums. I try, but I fail miserably. I'm dressing up like V for Halloween. All the kids will have no idea who I am. It happens every year! I was the Verizon Wireless guy one year.
