So today in Fencing, since half the newbies didn't come (sucks for them!) they let the ones who were there go into full fencing dress and wield swords. There was something annoying about a part of the outfit they gave me, but... I had to live with it. They were going to order new things soon anyways, at least.
But the swords were fun. The way you're supposed to hold the sword, with the handle past your hand parallel with your arm, and then the certain positions and where it is supposed to poi
One of the things I am known for: My crazy blinking skills.
Basically, I can blink non-stop for a verrry long time. For some reason, no one has been able to top me at it in school. I'm like o.O when I'm the one getting that look. xP
Also panic is over. The homework got posted online and is due tomorrow. =D *douses fire*
The two are not related to each other in this case. =P
Death - A Spanish teacher died over the vacation. I didn't know her, but lots of my friends had her for a teacher and one was even in tears during English. So my condolences go out to those close to the teacher.
And since my Italian teacher is the head of the Foreign Language department, he didn't come into class today because of the death (but he did come to school).
On a livelier note:
Panic - OH NOOO My History teacher didn't put
Since Maj is failing... PHOTOBUCKET!
*will now take time to change URLs*
In other news my stomach was in pain this morning, but I feel better now. I even had a late breakfast (cuz I had no willpower to eat earlier). =D

So happy Thanksgiving, my people! If you celebrate it, at the least. If you don't... have a good day anyways. =D
So I'm thankful for:
- My family being here =)
- My friends from middle school
- My new friends in high school
- My relatives in Europe
- My teachers
- You BZPower weirdos
- Having an amazing meal today
- Lots of little tiny things that would take forever to list
What I'm not thankful for?
Maj not loading. x(
But yes, today was a good day. I'm stuffed, and I've
I hear Bionicle's gonna be discontinued. Not that I'm heavily affected by this. But still a bit saddening.
Anyways, I'm running out of stuff to blog about that's not about life. Cuz life is boooring.
*in before "blog about me!"*
Today in Fencing club we arranged flowers! For one and a half hours! =D
But getting onto why, the Fencing and Soccer teams held a fundraiser where they sold carnations to people. $2 for the first flower, and $1 for additional flowers. You could have it sent to a person anonymously or whatever. And all of them had little messages from the senders, they were so cute.
So we had to arrange the bouquets of one flower, some were of two or three flowers. And then staple the messages on.
One of t
So my brother says he saw this homeless guy digging through trash. So when the guy had something, he was like "What do we have here..." and then pulled out some sort of bottle.
His reaction to the bottle was, "Oh. Yeah."
So today, I had two observations/experiences with little kids on the train.
First, in the morning to school. This little boy and his parents got into the train, and despite the crowds found a seat. The little boy was on the mom's lap, and was pointing at stuff. Like how he pointed at my scarf and made some sort of noise, and his mom explained it was a scarf. He would ask all sorts of random questions about anything, like the train doors or what's in his lunch box.
Then then then this girl ar
We played jeopardy in History today to review for tomorrow's Midterm. We'd also played it a few weeks ago for a normal test. But, the highlight of the game was my team's name.
For the normal test review, we were "The Losers Who Win at Walmart."
Today, in the same group, we were "The Pirates of the Tofurkey Noodle Soup," or shortened to "The Tofurkey Pirates."
And guess what?
We had the most points the both times. (:<

So in art class, we started on our midterm, and we need to finish it by Friday. The entire class was silent, and everyone felt too awkward in the silence to pipe up. We're usually very chatty.
So, I need to focus somehow on my drawing. Since we can listen to music, I put on my headphones and shuffled my songs. First one I got was "Never Gonna Give You Up." When it came on, I jumped in and was impressed with myself.
So rickrolling oneself can be very useful. =D
Midterms are this week! I'm probably gonna do okay, just gotta study. Just not gonna stress myself out.
Tomorrow I have a math midterm. I would have had an Italian midterm, but since I got above a 90 on the last test that wasn't long ago, my teacher said I don't have to take the midterm. Joy!
Also, check the content block somewhere down... over... there. It has a list of characters, links to completed images, and bolded names are the characters I'm currently drawing. Today, I drew Gaara (it
This weekend, I should probably come up with some ideas for stories. So that over the midterm week and Thanksgiving vacation, I can actually get to writing. I haven't written anything not school-related for a while now, so I want to get back into that and improve some more.
If you want you can give me some starter ideas for stories that I could build on or use for inspiration. =D
So we were drawing an avocado, right? But I got bored with it, so I set it on fire.
And then I drew this kind of black torch holder thingie to hold up the flaming avocado. An offering to the gods!
Speaking of drawing, I got a drawing of Sebastian Michaelis done (will scan sooon). What character should I draw next? =D
I had this awesome idea for a blog theme. It was going to be epic.
Sadly, I can't recall it. >< I had it a few days ago when I wasn't at the comp (like, on the train maybe?), and when I got home I just completely forgot about it. And now I remember I even had an idea.
Grrrrr
Actually, first happy birthday to whoever was born on this day anywhere in the world. You people who celebrate Veterans Day, have a good one (especially if it's your birthday and you have off from school, wootwoot).
But a bigger happy birthday to Omega Blademan. He's 17... kinda old, don't you guys think? =P
102%. That's my Global History test score. Second best in the class (103 was highest >__>).
HAHAH
And I have my first meeting for Fencing club tomorrow. I'll be able to learn the sport finally! With these skills, I can get my.... revenge on a certain man.
I had three tests today: Global History, Biology, and Geometry. I was going to have Italian test too but I have the most awesome teacher ever so now it's on Monday.
People overreacted about the three tests for noooo reason. They weren't that difficult, in my opinion.
I have an essay due Monday in Global. All about Egypt, India, and China. D:
Uhh let's see... Oh I'm gonna be in a photoshoot tomorrow for my local hospital's annual report. Wooohoooo
And there's nothing awesome and not ch
I've been watching it recently.
Also, in school when I had free time, I finished a drawing of Sebastian. One guy recognized the reference image when I was starting, and he said "Oh it's the Black Butler guy, right?" and I'm like "Yeah! "
Maybe I should stop telling people it's from "Kuroshitsuji," and instead say "Black Butler" for language convenience? xP
I saw it on Friday... For a movie from 1968 it is scaryyyy ._. I was not expecting that.
But then again it also addresses interesting issues from the time period, which was the topic of discussion at the museum place I watched it at after the movie finished.
And I was with friends too so I had a shoulder to lean on during the movie. xP
uhhhh
But yeah, 93.14 overall average.
Lowest grade was 85 in English and PE, but in English the highest grade she gives at the beginning is a 90 so I'm satisfied. PE is just PE and isn't weighed that much anyways.
Highest grade was a 98 in Geometry. o___O
All other classes were 90's. So I'm goooood. B)
Also costume is almost complete. >=D
