I started a new story!
magic partitiomView it here.
In other news, I wrote a poem cause we're having a competition called Slam Poetry (look it up, it's rather common in many areas) and it apparently it scored very, very well (and the scoring was tough). ^^;;
Errrrrrmmmm.........
I finished reading Dragonsdawn. A few hentai (pervert) parts, but nothing too explicit. I started The Mote In God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. The book was published in 1974.
Um, yeah, not that much going on, I guess.

P.S. I got a 100 on a math test when I failed the quiz version of it! ^_^
My computer decided, once when I was restarting it because it was being stupid (I have an 800MHz iBook G3), that it wanted to stop on the loading log-in window part. And not move. No matter how many times we restarted it, etc., it just would not get passed there. So my dad copied some files from my computer onto a backup external 80 gig and then scrubbed my harddrive (after much difficulty with copying) and reinstalled OS 10.3. My computer worked after then, but some files got messed up in the file transfer (Halo keeps freezing) and Office X needs to be reinstalled soemtime.
In the meantime, I've been reading Dragonsdawn by Anne McCaffrey. She excellently descriptive and creative, and blends sci-fi and fantasy together very well. The book's about (apparently one in a series; kind of confusing because it's somewhere in the middle) a group of humans traveling to a new world called Pern, where they attempt to make a new start (apparently, they've messed up other worlds, from what I've seen), and while doing so, find out about these small repitilian creatures that look somewhat like mini-dragons (and I mean smaller than a cat). That's where I am about now, 1/4 of the way through, but, according to the summary, white stuff begins crashing into the planet and annihilating stuff. They then call in a top genetics person to turn them into larger animals, from Dragonet to Dragon, I believe.
Anyway, that's about it for now, I guess, besides the fact that my SCHOOL HAS NO RHYTHM AND CAN ONLY CLAP ON 1 AND 3 LIKE EVERYTHING'S A POLKA!!!
Oh, we also had a german festival yesterday, and there was a three-legged race that me and chib did good at because we're about the same height (he's just a teeny bit taller than I).
Yeah, anyway, that's it.

*gasp* I updated twice in two (three?) days!
THE APOCALYPSE IS NIGH!!!! *runs away screaming*
Okay, right, onto more profound topics!
Today was an activity day. I signed up for photography. It was cool, cause we learned all these techniques, and all we had were disposable cameras! Anyway, my friend James (aka Bosa Bosa) is also in photography, so I had him pose a couple times in the courtyard. First, I made it so that it looked like he was as big as a tree and was touching its top by angling my camera right and getting him to be at the right distance. Next, I made him look a lot smaller than a bush, made it seem like he was resting his head on a flower, and that he was half the size of a random, five-foot pole. I also took some pictures of leaves and stuff, a picture of a painter who was painting the railings, and posed for James' pictures too.
I did my direct examination and cross examination questions for a thing we're doing called mock trial (don't think I've explained it before), where we pretend we're in a court trial. My team is the defense team.
Our case is that a kid supposedly beat up another kid into a bloody pulp on the bus.
I have to do a direct examination, a cross examination, AND the closing speech. -_-;
In other news, Monoui no Kaisen isn't coming along too great, but oh well. I'll get out of this poopy writer's block in no time, if it's anything like normal.
And I'm really hungry. T-T
Tomorrow, we're going to the Maritime Center (aquarium thing that schools ALWAYS visit) to see an Imax film on volcanoes or something. Well, I get to miss 3/4 of school, so I'm okay with it. ^_^
Yeah, that's about it.

Wicked ruled!! It was SO awesome. Wow, it was really good. I haven't been able to stop listening to the soundtrack since.
The fieldtrip on Thursday to Mt. Holyoke was only good because I missed nearly the entire day...We spent 5 hours in total on the bus to and from there, and spent only an hour and a half there, and it was REALLY boring.
JG: Heh. Been a while since I've talked to you. ^^ And I actually wasn't too annoyed at the time, it was only when I got home I realized how jerky the people were...
Chapter 7 of Monoui no Kaisen isn't coming along too great; being sick kinda kills my inspiration. -_-; Oh, oops, I didn't mention that I got a really sucky cold a week ago and I even had to stay home on Tuesday....
