Headache + Updates

Heeey, how's everyone?
I've been sick since last week and just got better in the last few days.
t'was a busy week.
Many many projects to turn in and I mostly ended up working up late at night till 3 in the morning.
Saturday morning, I had to get up early to go to this Chinese Knowledge Competitions. 100 questions. Multiple-Choice Questions. 52/100 of the Questions I wasn't sure at all (eeney-meeneey-minee-moe style), Some of the questions, I studied it but forgot... so I THINK I got it write but I'm not even sure. Only a few I'm sure I got right... like stuff like: Who is a NBA player, Yao Ming or George Bush .... Yep.
I fail.
Then that night we had our first concert of the year with the WIYSO.
It went sorta well. The stage was too small so they had to add an extra thing and that wooden improvised stage wasn't stable at all so it moved and shaked everytime the maestro moved (and he moves quite a lot) so our stands kept on shaking and I couldn't read the music on it. Finally our sheets ended up falling. x_x
anyways. We had a stand up ovation at the end. As always.
It was fun. (I kinda had to sit facing the audience so I could see everyone so it really stressed me out)
anyways. hope you guys have a great week.
I have 3 exams tomorrow (Math, Science, French) yuk.

she filmed my solo, I'll be putting it up soon! Cheers!!~

Problem with google.

Does anyone.... by clicking any link in google search end up ALWAYS on http://results2.google.com/???
I always have to click a second time to go on the right site.
I'm using Firefox. Does it have anything to do with it?

Just finished reading Tempted.

Gah, what can I say? This book made me cry.
The end left it hanging and I'm pissed cuz I want to know what happens next.
Bullpoopie. Like Zo would say.
A CHARACTER FRIGGEN DIES!!!!!! The outcome was totally unexpected and I really want to read Burned now. Yay. Another year of waiting impatiently.
The book was overall good. Stevie Rae kinda pissed me off at the beginning and all, like what's with the... anyways. no spoilers.

My School SUCKS.

You know why? We went on a "trip" today. Out of little Montreal island I live on. One hour of bus ride. We were 6 buses full of kids - grade 10. 250 of us maybe.
On our way back, we were caught up in traffic. Regular school buses leaves at 4:10. We managed to make them wait for us till maybe 4:30. That gave 4 of the 6 buses to arrive. We got there too... but only minutes after they left. And guess what? They didn't even take the time to find us a ride home.
"Call your parents to come pick you up." They said. "Meanwhile, you can stay here with the librarian while I drive home."...
So finally one of my friends' mom was really nice and offered me a ride. It saved me from waiting another 45 minutes in the cold.
I get home and I find out I have a 3 hour long chinese homework to do, due tomorrow. Violin pieces I haven't practiced. Also due tomorrow.
And (of course) a pile of homeworks/projects due next week.
FML.

Ps: A friend of mine finally passed me Tempted!!! I'm psyched!!! The book's pretty amazing so far. Much much better than the previous ones. I'm a bit more than half way done. Viva los Vampyres. haha.

Halloween 2009

Seriously, guys this year was by far the best Halloween ever!!
We were 5 girls as The little dead riding hood (me), Woman in the old times, Cowgirl, Soccer Player and Fifi -something.

We got plenty of candy (half a pillowcase full..) It was freezing cold but we had so much fun goofing around in the streets taking pics. We screamed on top of our lungs and laughed till we cried. We seemed drunk without a doubt. We sang High School Musical songs at doors and wished people "Merry Christmas".
We danced hours in the basement with booming music, disco ball and flashing lights that made me feel high. We ate candy and got hyperactive.
We watched Halloween at 1:30 in the morning and finally understood why the guys like the movie (which is a horrible one by the way). It was so bad we were falling asleep watching it. (Though I have to admit that if I were a guy I'd prob like the movie too..)
We talked, laughed and had a pillow fight. 
AND. Finally fell asleep around 4:30 in the morning. (which feels like 5:30 because of the time change)


Best Halloween night ever. (except for the movie part, maybe, but I had fun laughing at all the blood so)...
 How was YOUR Halloween?
