you can tell when i'm bored if im posting twice in a day. oh man, Cassia is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO adorable!! she's such a good child. like, when you hand her over to someone else to hold, she doesn't cry. and oh my gawd....she is sooooo beooo-ti ful! like, Audrey (my cousin, and her mommy) took a picture of the two of us and at that point, she was like, whoa... and when i came down and saw her being changed, man...cute!! and, she didn't cry when she was being changed. y'know, how some babies scream their heads off? well, she just lies there and looks around and kicks her legs a little. AWWWWWW!!!

ok, i still haven't mailed my letter yet. arggg!!! i need to do it!! i'm so damn anxious!! hee hee hee! i wanna call jordan right now! he's at the music banquet. i wanna go! oh well. i actually would rather be here. hahah. i'm so complicated.
ok i have nothing to say....
i talked to jordan on icq. not jordan simard, but jordan, the guy from summer school. and....yeah. he's cool. not cool as in cool, but as in he's okay. he's pretty good at keeping a convo going. that's good. guys suck at keeping the convos going. well, at least the guys i know. *stupid yutat...*

i'm borrrred...ok, i'm gonna seal my letter. i'm really gonna do it this time!!

okay, my computer went down so that's why i didn't post for...11 days!! oh my frank....

so...let me see what i've done since then.did my bio slide test on the 22nd. it was so hard! i passed by one mark. how dissapointing. on the 23rd, i setted up the art show with carmen. it was so much fun! we were like rolling the fabric thingy around the pole instead of hanging it up like we're supposed to. and then we got dizzy and messy. on friday, our orchestra had the last rehersal before the concert. it was my first time playing snare drum with the ppl! also, the other percussion dude came. omg, he was sooooo nice!! i wish everyone was like him! but don't worry, my friends, who are reading this, i don't have a crush on him or anything. he's like, old. ish. but...yeah! he's really really nice and stuff. and when we played our stupid march song, i was SO horrible! we practised during break. he taught me how to play! it was cool! anyways, on saturday (25th) we had our concert. there were like 1100 ppl there!! scary...me and my stand partner did a pretty good job pretending to play! usually, we suck. we just sit there. but that night we were pretty good. and then the "encore". the drum part. i have to say, that went pretty good too. i mean, at the last part, i totally slowed down. i was going half the speed it was supposed to, but it doesn't matter, cuz it was cut time, and i was counting in 4/4 time, which is pretty close. i mean, beat-wise. and the whole thing (my part) sounded much better than the previous night. so...i'm glad.
on sunday, the ppl from the orchestra treated us to free lunch and bowling. it was fun!! at first, there were only two other ppl there, so i was really uncomfortable, cuz i don't really know them, but when bernard came, i just went up (to the bowling alley, cuz the adults were having dim sum) with him, and we got our bowling shoes and stuff. when more ppl came, we played, and then the really fun part began! i totally sucked!!! there were ten rounds, right? and the most you can get in each round is 10 points. so, my overall mark after TEN rounds was 17. 17!!! can you believe it?! man, i suck. the second time it was better- 21. but the last time, i got like 87! it was so cool!! and then that evening, i went to the madrigals recital. oh my frank, it was wonderful!! everyone's solos were also super-de-duper! jordan's solo was incredible. like, i knew he could sing well, but when he sang that first note of his song, i was just like "whoa...i never knew he was this good" like honestly, i was really shocked! and impressed!! and i really liked Witness. it was cool listening from the audience's point of view. you can hear like, all the parts equally.
on tuesday (28th) ppl from my english collage group came over to work, and have dinner. it was actually pretty fun. and yesterday, wedensday, we went to Lili's house. we made our paper mache eye, and had dinner and stuff. very productive. heh heh...well, it was! and today, i was supposed to go to TWO meetings: volunteer council, and art council, the new one. i'm applying for the Visual Arts Chairperson. i got the papers from Renee, and i told her i might be late, but i totally forgot! argg.g..and my mom picked me up from school, so, i guess that's sort of why i didn't go. *sigh*
but on a happier note, AUDREY IS COMING TODAY!!!! well, she's not here yet, but she will be, soon! and Larry! and Cassia! YEAAAYYYY!!!!! i can't waaaaiiittt!!! eeheeee hee heee hee hee! i'm hyper!
oh yea, forgot to mention, last night, i wrote to one of the hot twins from Cirque Du Soleil!! oh yes...heh heh...and i'm like, "so...you're coming to Toronto in August...when you have days off and you wanna hang out, please don't hesitate to give me a call! even though you don't know me...yet." and i left my number and email at the bottom of the page. so...i really hope he'll call me. REALLY. i'm like "i can show you around!" even though i have no idea where to go and stuff myself. i'm horrible at directions. *sigh* man...i hope he doesn't have a girlfriend or anything!! cuz y'know...i'm single...lol. and...he has a twin...y'know!! LOL!! anyways, i'm gonna end this post now, so i can seal it up and mail it. *grin!* ta-ta!!

wow, i haven't blogged in a looooong time!
ok, the spring concert was GREAT!!!! orchestra was so good! y'all should've heard us! especially Lord of the Dance!! damn, we were good! eehhee hehehehe!!! i regret the fact that i didn't have a chance to listen to any of the second half performances, except for the wind ensemble, because i was in choir. i really really wanted to! especially the sixtet and Roger's solo. my parents said he was REALLY good! anyways, i'm gonna go to the madrigals concert on the 26th, just so i can hear the sixtet. yay! i can't wait!
mrs. walsh is making us write this big report thingy that's worth 10%!! damn...i'm not good at writing. =( oh well... and she's forming these chamber groups now in our class and we're gonna have a recital in two weeks! tarrick and i are gonna do a duet! this is exciting! she'd better pick us a good song!! (cuz we don't get to pick)

i went to Ryan (Hua)'s party today. he's moving soon. anyway, it was pretty good. it was really uncomfortable at first, because, for like 3 hours, i was the only girl. but what was good is that i saw some ppl there i haven't seen in like, 3 years! Kyle, Johnny, Gavin...they all used to go to SAM, but they're not at ACI. tee hee! we played Mah Jong, and i didn't know how to play, and they were all teaching me (well, johnny and gavin) and it was fun! i sucked though. Ryan's puppy is soooo cute!! it's like, tiny and fluffy. i thought it was a pomeranian, but i eventually found out that it was a chiwawa (i know it's spelled wrong). and, omg, guess who i saw? Cameron! (that REALLY HOT percussion dude who used to go to our school? he was at the U of T concert) apparently, he's going out with Ryan's sister. *sigh* now im jealous. =(

argg...i wanna go to denny's house! (he's my cousin) i thought i'd be going around supper time, cuz one of my aunts is flying here from Hong Kong (i think), and we're supposed to pick her up from the airport and drive her to denny's house, cuz that's where she's staying. she still haven't arrived yet!!! bitch!! (sorry, i don't really like her)

anyways, i can't wait til tomorrow! i'm pretty sure i'm going to see Star Wars! yayy!! Hayden Christenson! he's hot!! tee hee!! and carmen said she'll come with me if she doesn't have to do her parenting project. i need to ask her about that...

anyways, that's all i need to blog about right now. argg...i'm so bored!!!
ta-ta-cheerio!

interesting fact#1: in the music video "Jaded" by Aerosmith, there are various performers by Cirque Du Soleil. apparently, the producer (i think, producer?) is a HUGE fan, hence...

interesting fact#2: CDS tickets for Varekai in Toronto is now on sale for the ppl who joined that club. (yay me!) tickets go on sale for the public on...damn, i forgot. i think it's friday.

interesting fact#3: they are staying in Toronto an extra 5 days! so, 10 extra performances! whoo hoo!!

OMIGOSH THIS IS SO EXCITING!!!!! i was just reading the discussion page (in my email, i get it by email) and this one person said if we wanted to write fanmail we could, and he/she posted the address!!!! ahhhhhhhHhhhhHHHH!!!!! i'm gonna write them a letter!!!! well, i think i'm gonna write Icarus a letter! or maybe the hot twins! hee hee heee heee!!! this is so exciting!!!

wow, the concert on friday night was AMAZING! we sang really really well, especially the last phrase of Witness! i couldn't stop smiling when we were getting off stage! =) and Neptune was pretty good too! well, we were all squished on the risers behind the curtains, trying to see Colin's face on the little tv screen. lol but everything went very smoothly. the last song, the tuba solo was incredible! it was funny at the end when that tuba guy went lower and lower, and then eventually went so low that we was laying on the ground. lol! AND that part where we dumped his spit (from playing) on that girl. lol nastay!! anyways, colin's conducting was excellent! the best i've ever seen! even better than gabriel -- and he's pretty good! i shook his hand afterwards! it was cool! =)
i noticed while i was reading everyone's blog, that jordan and carmen wrote the same thing in their blog -- the lyrics to Witness. hehehe!

anyways, after the concert, i was on icq, and i talked to that guy from a long time ago! (dingomanolove) i don't really know his real name. i haven't talked to him in like, i dunno...a LONG time. anyways, it was great! we had to much to talk about! =) he recently went to alaska, isn't that cool? and he's gonna buy an apartment soon and live with his mom. aww that's so sweet! well, he already has like, 2 or 3 apartments, and 3 (?) houses. i'm like "you're rich!" and then he's like "no, i need money!" or something like that. he's so nice! =) and then he's like "thats why i like you we're like two apples from the same appletree" and then i told him i hated apples, and then we had this big convo about fruits. i told him to try the kiwi jelly beans, cuz they are soooo yummy! and he said he'll try it. lol i also told him about the monkey on crack with a diaper rash thing. lol (i think he thought i was crazy...lol)

anyways..last night, i saw Spider-Man. it was really good! not REALLY really, but still, really good. =) confused? mmm....Tobey Maguire is so cool! hee hee hee! i love his name...=)

ok...well, i think i should go back to my homework now. stupid homework...ok well...ta-ta!

U of T concert tonight!! i'm sooo excited!! as i am typing, i have rollers in my hair. bahaha i look like a freak! buuut it's gonna look good (hopefully!) later when i take them out!

aaanyway, we're like 2/3 through our pig dissections. it's not as bad i thought it would be, which is good. our pig is so freakin small! and brown! well, at least it's not blue! (hahaha andy u SUCK!!) <-- he wouldn't read this so it doesn't matter.

so yesterday, i tried posting on the Cirque club for the first time, and i typed a pretty long post, and it didn't work!! arggg...i did copy it, but my mind was somewhere else and after i copied that, i copied something else, so my post which i copied was gone. blasted...*mutters* so i'm gonna try to post again tomorrow. i don't think i'll have time tonight. oh well...carmen and me are making plans to see Varekai in August when they come to Toronto! she said Will's coming back on the 16th from his Harvard Univ. trip. apparently, he want to go there. (tsktsk...smart ppl...) and the show that we're probably gonna see is actually on the 16th. well, we could see it on the 2nd, buuut...i dunno. i wanna go on the second. AND- i told my mom that Quidam was gonna be in Boston in August, and i REALLY wanna go see them! and i guess i thought Boston was in New York, so...a couple of hours drive, but no! it's aaall the way in Massachusets!! i can't even spell it!! i also have some family there, so, maybe we can visit them. my mom said she'll see. maaan, you have no idea how badly i want to go!! well, if my parents don't want to drive, maybe our group can go on a road trip and we can ALL go! what fun that'll be! *claps in excitement*

ok, i think i should go eat now...blog more...later!

wow, today's rehersal at St. Mike's College went great! two of the chaperons from the montreal trip was there, so was Cameron -- the percussion dude who used to go to our school. damn, he's fuckin hot!! tee hee!!
i didn't do any hw today. so pissed. stupid hw. and yutat. i'm really mad at him now. stupid....didn't even give me the movie....>=(
if i get a horrible mark, i'm gonna blame it all on him!!
so there!!

audrey coming on may 30th. can't wait. gonna be awesome! can't wait to see cassia and larry too.
went on cirque du soleil website, and in the club thingy (cuz i joined it). found out that Varekai touring to Toronto in August. in Ontario Place. maybe i'll go again...just because i love them so much. spent like 2 hrs on the club reading ppl's discussion posts. very interesting...John G. (the guy fixing the lightbulb in the show, with the feathers in his butt) was actually discussed a lot, which is good, cuz i like him (not that way. he's an awesome actor). no one talked about the angel, who, in fact, was playing Icarus, the Greek dude who made wings with wax, remember? yeah...damn, he's hot. they also talked a lot about the twins. not the super hot ones, but the other ones. damn, i wish i had a twin.
oh, well...
Draco Veritas still did not have chapter 7 yet. *sigh* i'm so anxioussss!! for those of you who don't know what they are, they are fan fictions. harry potter ones, of course! argg...i wanna read fan fictions!!

ok, better go do homework.

now, how can i start this blog?
there's so much to write, but they don't relate to each other at all. i'll just be jumping all over the place! alright. let me start by saying, jordan, you finally blogged! congratulations! no one blogs anymore now. everyone's ditched their blog. freaks...not implying that my friend kate, and margaret are freaks, but...i meant it in a general sense.
ok.
pig dissections are on tuesday. i'm scared outta my mind!! like, im anxious and stuff, but y'know how i am with cutting things up and stuff...ugh...i constantly have this cringe inside me when i do something like that. i mean, the poor fetus hasn't even had a chance to live life! that's just murder...just like someone i know. i won't mention who...but...murderer.
last night i practised Lord of the Dance like 3 or 4 hours last night, cuz it was soooooo bad, and, well, it was better in class today. it wasn't that much better, but...meh. E for effort.
at lunch, micheal (that guy from montreal) brought his pictures! omg, the one with adrian and...jonathan (? which one, im not sure) sleeping. lol from the angle he took the picture, adrian looked like he wasn't wearing a shirt! AND they were sleeping pretty close together! oh my...lol! and he let me take a picture from him. the one in the underground mall, where i had no film left for it. it came out pretty nice. his pics are all really clear. ugh. i'm so jealous!
stupid orchestra...i have orchestra tonight. i HATE it!!! i haven't been for 2 weeks though, which is good. the first week, i was at gabriel's concert (which was pretty good, by the way), and the second week was at montreal. (being chased by riots! haha!) and now i have to go back. but i don't have to go next week again! yayy!! that's because agincourt singers are gonna perform at U of T.
and speaking of performances, i'm really excited of all the concerts that are happening this month! well, only two, but they're gonna be good two's!! there's a rehersal this sunday for girls for the UT one. ooohhh...it's at St. Michael's College for Boys. heh heh heh...i can't wait!! we're singing with the toronto wind symphony. that's as good as TSYO! damn, we're good! LOL
well, i'd better get going. gotta eat and stuff. (grrr) ta-ta-cheerio!!

i got my pictures from montreal back yesterday! YAYY!! most of them came out pretty good, as in not underexposed or anything. but all the pictures seem to be in not-that-good condition. i think it was just the camera's fault. stupid APS camera....next time, i'm bringing my own! i dun care if it's big and bulky! it takes good pictures!! heh heh...anyways...yeah, i brought them to school today and showed, like, eeeverryone! even adam, since he is in two of them. that was good, cuz that gave me an excuse to talk to him. there was an uncomfortable pause between us yesterday, and part of today. i didn't like it. so...yeah!

ok, i have to stop talking about my trip...

so, yesterday, jordan, carmen, megan, and kate came up to my locker, and they were talking about the GPP in june. they're planning to gather a group of people (7?) and make each of us wear a certain colour. and then they're like "you're red." i wanted to be purple, cuz i like purple, but megan was already purple. and then i thought about it, and remember i always wanted to dye my hair red (well, i did, so there!!)? so i figured this would be an excellent oppotunity, so...i agreed! i'm really excited about it now! EEEE!!! hee hee hee!! i can't wait! im gonna take lotsa pictures, and be pretty, and get hyperrrr! yeaaaahhh!! *grin* i just hoooope my mom would let me go. she better!! heh heh heh!

anyways, today, the stupidest thing happened. the fire alarm went off at the end of school. maaan, it was freaky! i think my heart skipped a beat! *sigh* anyways, after that, i went to orchestra. i was soooooo bad. i've never played so horribly in orchestra all year! i seriously felt like i was gonna cry. *sigh* so i came home (after going to the dentist's) and practised like, 2 hrs. just that one song. it's a little better now, but it still sucks. i really want it to be good for the concert, because i really like this song, and i want us to play well so bad! urrrrgg...

oh, anyways, i'd better go now. maybe i'll practise some more...i've got a solo piece coming up too. stupid piano part...so damn hard...

i know you're all sick of me saying this, buuuuut i found another pair of twins on the Cirque Du Soleil program!! they're not as hot as the other pair (ohh...baby...) but they're twins nevertheless. AND!! i finally found someone who has the same birthday as me! i knew there would be one! well, not really, but i was hoping. anyways, yeah, but he's not like a hot guy or whatever. not even close, no offense. he's 26 years old. 27 in August. AND he's from Canada!!!! YAYYY!!!!

aaanyways, you're all probably wanting to know about adam. gawd, this is so dumb...
ok, so after 1st period this morning, i rushed to his locker, in hopes that he would be there (he has spare 2nd). so i see yvonne first, on the way, and we both go to his locker, and then i see him, i'm like "hey adam! u still wanna talk to me?" and i was really anxious, cuz y'know...it seemed really important. and then he sorta hesitated, and said "forget it." i was just like, *gasp!* so i'm like, ok, and then i left to go to yvonne's class, then my locker, which in at the opposite side of the school. by that time, i've been around the school once around. and then i went back to my class, which is aaaaallll the way back where adam's locker was (in the history/art hallway). and then we had to go to the library for that class, and i passed him on the way.
SO
4th period rolls around, and im going to my class. i see rachel, and i pull her aside to tell her, cuz i see adam there in the hall. midway, he shows up, cuz we're near the doorway, and rachel's like, "what were u gonna tell her?" and stuff, and he's like "it's nothing" and im like 'but i wanna knowww!" and then rachel left cuz she had class. so me and adam were there in that little corner, and he's like "ok, umm..do you know what lunch lina has?" Lina was my room mate from montreal, and i just met her there and i didn't know her that well. so i'm like "i don't know!" and he's "oh..okay.." and i'm like "is that all...?" and he paused for a tiny second, and said yeah. and then i was about to say something when stupid Henry Holland interfered!! that little...*mutters* oh well. so i siad bye, and left.

and that's the story. see, it's really stupid. i am 90% sure that was not what he initially wanted to say. i mean, can't he ask lina himself? and besides, why would he want to know her lunch schedual in montreal? and why did he ask me, of all people? *shakes head* oh well...whatever he really wants to tell me, he'll do it in his own time, i guess. i don't really care. but i was really really annoyed. so...yeah. that's it.

last night, i was looking at the Cirque program really carefully, cuz i wanted to know about those ppl. and i distictively remembered that there were these other two guys i said were hot (who wasn't the angel). so yesterday, i was looking at thier date of birth, cuz it's really interesting. (old ppl look young, and young ppl look old. lol!) and i saw one of the hot guy's (the one who smiled really big) date of birth. and i thought to myself 'hmmm...where have i seen that date before? it looks really familiar' and then i started looking around for other dates of birth, and then the other hot guy(without the big smile, only a nice charming one) came in, and then i saw his date of birth, and it was the same!! im like 'so that's where i've seen it!' and then i was like, 'omg, are they twins?!' so i looked at their faces, and gawd, they looked similar! and then i still wasn't positive, so i looked at their last names, just to be sure. and omg, they were the same. i can't believe it!! a hot guy with a twin! TWO hot guys!! *droooollllllll*

so i told like, everyone at school today, cuz nique wanted to see the program, and jordan's like, "mandy's horny for hot guys" or something like that i don't really remember. it was hilarious!! man...i have to go to montreal again..French guys are HOT!!! (no one agrees with me) and also Cirque Du Soleil guys are hot too! well, the young ones, at least. hahaha!! and i signed up for this club at the Cirque website, and they're gonna send me all these cool information!! wickedd!! i'm SO going to go again!!! hee hee hee!! mmm...hot guys...*drooollll*


oh, btw, i haven't seen adam today. i am dying of curiosity!! argg!! well, so is rachel! i wanna know! hopefully i'll see him tomorrow, cuz i have art when he has spare, and i'll pass by his locker, so...*crosses fingers!*

i came back from Montreal last nite, 6:15. we were an hour early. what's ironic is that throughout the entire trip we've been on time only once.
aaanyways, it was amazing!! even though it was really expensive and we had to pay for lunch and i got my thing, i can say that it has been one of the most memorable trips i've ever been on. let me tell you what happened:

(the first day) Wednesday: -got on bus
-went to Athens High school to perform
-ghetto school -practically everyone was smoking and stuff, but you know, there was this one hot guy...
-after, went to montreal
-had lunch
-i totally forgot what we did...
- that night, we watched the Montreal Symphony. They were soooo good!!
-i roomed w/ tracy (adrian's gf) amy and this other girl i just met, lina. they were all gr.12's but we became really close.

(a bad to good day) Thursday: -went to This elementary school to perform. gawd, they were soooo adorable!! whne mr. lum was conducting, they pretended to conduct, so then mr.lum taught them all how to conduct "floor, wall,wall, ceiling" and ms.walsh did some clapping excersises w/ them while other ppl set up. the best part was at the end- they loved us so much that they were asking us for autographs! hahaha! so there we were, signing and taking pictures. they were so cuuute!!
-ate lunch around olf montreal and walked around
-went to the notre dame cathedral, had a tour. the women who guided us (we were in 2 different groups) came on the bus w/ us, and we drove around old montreal like a bus tour, w/ that woman telling stuff. we went to this one church, or temple place, and only me and rachel got out to take pictures, from our bus. (there were 2) i think it was becuz it was rainy and not a very nice day.
-ate dinner at this really loud bar w/ tons of smokers and loud music and TVs. it was horrible. i felt horrible but...(next point)
-that night was the sole purpose (well, one of the sole purposes) why i came on this trip. we watched Cirque Du Soleil. now, how can i decribe this? it was in a big blue and yellow tent, much like the one you see near STC sometimes. another tent was for souveniers and snacks. inside the performing tent there there cords and stuff hanging and long sticks bunched up to one side where the performers can climb up. the main character (i think, cuz he kept coming out) was an angel, who had his wings stolen, and went from extremely graceful and beautiful to very weak. the acrobats were simply AMAZING, and everything was totally wonderful. i can't even describe it. the angel, the first moment i saw him, i knew he was a hot guy, and when i bought the program (cuz you have to buy them, it includes a cd rom. 12$) and i saw him, i was right! everyone agreed w/ me.
there were these 3 kids who did one act w/ these spinning things, and gosh, they were so cute! they were like, little and stuff. i think they're about 10 years old or so. i can check the program, but it's not w/ me at the moment. me and veronique each got a jester hat. it was expensive, but if i didn't get it, i would regret it forever. i know it.
the last act was w/ this wheel thingy and that was THE BEST!! i can't really describe it cuz you had to be there!! and when it finished they all came out and bowed, and we were all on our feet clapping and screaming and i was telling ppl how great this one guy looked with a six pack. oh baby..lol but of course, i like the angel the best! i mean, c'mon!! when we left, i was walking w/ nique, and we had the best time! it was sooo hilraious! we were like cracking jokes and everything! and then i tripped on a step, and almost fell!
-arrived at the hotel at quater to 12.

(a very interesting, scary and eventful day...)Friday: -went to the hard rock cafe for breeeakfast. it was sooo much fun! we danced a lot and laughed and took pictures! all the waiterrs we like, dancing. one of them was hot! i took a pic of him. heh heh heh!
- went to this musem place with lots of old buildings. (what's that word...?) we got this tour, in 3 different groups, and this indredible story of how that building came to be. it was mostly underground, cuz over a long period of time, ppl kept building stuff on top of it. like, walls and homes, and cemetaries. and everything was original! after that, we went to the biodome. i actually went there before, so i knew what was there, but it was fun all the same. the penguins were sooooo cute!!! i was with adam smits, right? and gosh, did he ever took a long time with the fishes! geez. well, i guess it's good for him, cuz he really likes it (we want to be a marine biologist) so i guess...that's good. but after a while i ditched him cuz he was too slow. lol well, he told me to go anyways, so that's good. mr. lum bought all these toys od penguins. it was really cute. lol he's such a kid, but it's allll good. im like that too.
-and then we went to this stadium place, i forgot what it was called, but we had to ride this thing up to the top, and it scene was really beautiful, cuz we were really high up and the sky was sunny and all. when we were there, we took lots of pics and looked outside. everything was small!
-and then we went to an Insectarium. me and mrs walsh were making up all these"tariums". she's like, "and then we will go to the poopytarium, and then the kittytarium" lol she's so funny!
-after the insectarium, which featured a couple of bugs havin sex, lots of tarantulas, one bug at the process of eating another bug, and trying to catch it (that one was SLOW! we didn't even get to see it catch, and we were there for like 45 minutes!) we went to eat dinner. it was at this chinese buffet. very nice.
- and so...we were allowed to have 3 hours of free time (from 6-9 pm) around old montreal and some other parts of it, i forget. but coincidently, the summit thing was also at six. and knowing me, i wanna know what was happening, so my group (me, jonathan yu, amy, and joanna) went to this store (Garage Clothing) which was located right in the middle of everything. holy shit, we were stuck there for an hour and a half, which was alright w/ me cuz that's my fav. store. but all these prtesters were right outside the window! there must've been like two hundred! and garbage were all over the road, people running around, and then suddenly people all started running in one direction!! 40 or 50 riot police were actually chasing them!! they were wearing helmets sheilds all those protection gear. it's lie a scene from television, only this was real. and omg, i actually witnessed two ppl lift up an innocent person's car, and turned it 90 degrees, rear facing the road. a couple of minutes later, the whole thing was on the other side! one guy was jogging by, and he actually stopped and graffitied the window of our store! i saw him!! and then ppl started running again, and the police chasing. it was actually scary! one of the ppl working in the store was practically yelling (or speaking loudly and very sternly), to get away from the door. anywho, after it cleared up a bit, our group decided that it was safe to to leave. so us four went really far, to this mall. we felt safe in the mall cuz there were other stores surrounding us, and...well, you know. we passed by our coaches on the way. they were in a HUGE traffic jam. when we were inside we called mr. lum to tell him we wre alright and stuff, and he said we were gonna meet and the same time same place. so we just stayed there til like 8:30 and went to the meeting place. ppl were still outside! all these police cars were there as well as some firetrucks (the two near where we were left after a while). i actually took a picture from joanna's camera. souvenier, you know...
rachel and shelby and...this other girl were there already, and rachel told me that their group was actually running with the protesters! it was freaky...but honestly, and i know this isn't the right thing, but i can't deny it, i kinda wish i were with them instead. it sounded really exciting. but i know, safe is good. after, we were heading to our bus, cuz apparently everyone else was there. i heard that the rioting ppl were like telling the police to dance and stuff, and this one guy actually took the police's helmet and shield and started dancing. and then he mooned the police, and then he jetted cuz the police were chasing after him really quick. and then there's this other guy who had a microphone. but i dunno what he was sayin in it.
-when we got to the bus, many ppl weren't there. our first concern was Aquila and Paulanne. apparently, they were just late. and then it was Nique. i think she got lost or something. i'm not really sure, but we were all really concerned. and then finally, she turned up. lastly, elliot was missing. nobody knew his cell phone number and stuff. after what seemed like a really long time, he showed up. he took a wrong turn or something and he got lost and had to make this big circle around the whole place, or something like that.
-that night, it was really fun becuz i was at adam's room, and they were playing yuker (sp?) with mrs. walsh, brennen, lina (my room mate!) and...yeah. and they were all watching the hockey game. it was pretty different cuz the other two nights, we were just i our own rooms, and me and tracy talked really late into the night. the second night, we talked til almost 4 in the morning! but it was really nice, talking to her. we got to know each other quite well, and she's a really great advice giver. =) anyways...

(the last day) Saturday: - ate at the hotel again. checked out
- i almost died at breakfast cuz i had really bad cramps!
- drove to this underground mall place where we could shop for about 2 hrs.
- when we were at the underground mall, i took group pictures with all those ppl i hung out w/ the last 3 days, plus brennen and adam. hehehe adam's my puppy! lol anyways, it was really nice. but the weird thing came right after we took the pics. adam pulled me away and said he had to talk to me about something. i'm like, okayy...and then we wouldn't tell me, he's like, "later" so i'm like, okay, and then we separated. our shopping trip was really fun. it took my cramps away. most of the time. joanna said chocolate would make it better, so i popped some Lindt in my tumy, and off we went again. i didn't buy anything cuz i spent lots of money already. but i had fun. after our two hours, we went on the bus again, and headed home. stopped once (where i bought lunch cuz i didn't know we could've bought it at the mall). and then we headed home for real. i didn't see adam til a little later after we got off the bus, and our instruments put away (well, not mine). so i went up to him (and rachel and lina cuz they were there.) and we chatted a little, and then rachel went away and then i'm like to adam "so you have to tell me something?" and he said "yeah, but...later" so i gave him that weird look, and said okay. right now, i'm dying of curiosity. i wanna know!!!! =(
oh well, i'll ask him tomorrow at school.
so..yeah. what i learned from this trip was plenty.
- alicia is a bitch, and she wastes a lot of food. i can't stand her!!
- mr. caruana is a totally differnt person away from school...hahha he's funny. and...well...he swears casually.
- adam and michael sampson are such puppies! haha you know, their hair at the back? it's really short and fuzzy so...puppies! lol
- i'm pretty sure shelby and jonathan sum are going out. it just happened, like on the 3rd day of trip. really weird...
- there's more, but i don't think i should really say it...all in all this trip has been a wonderful experience. totally! i loooved it!!!! now i have to go to stupid school again. pooh.

oh. my. gosh.
i just got pictures from audrey!! it's of course, of Cassia. and just as i predicted, she is beeee-ooooo-tiful there's this one picture where it's just her, enlarged, and her eyes are open, gosh...she's SO pretty!! *tears forming in my eyes* she must be the most prettiest baby in the world!! (after me, of course! hahaha!! juuust joking!!)
*sigh* i can't WAIT til they come up here!!! i'll just sit there for hours on end, cuddling her...awww...
sweet little Cassia...two weeks and one day old...
and for those of you who wants to know the details, she looks very much like Larry (her daddy) but her skin's pretty dark. which is...odd. but i guess that's because Audrey's dark. and probably the computer might have something to do with the colour. oh well!! she adorable, just the same!!

anyways, while im blogging, i'll just mention that i'm going to Gabriel's concert tomorrow! i'm very excited about it! i can't wait to see my friends! (shut up!! i HAVE friends, ok?!)
