CAREERS.
SCARY.
It really is. Our portfolio is due today, and I did it last minute - which is not like me. Usually, I'll do it the night before, yes, but not at eleven at night. Usually, I get home right away, work, eat while I work, then finish at about eight. Last night, however, I got home, and my cousin - Steph the awesome - wanted to go to MEC at King and Spadina. So, we ate a quick dinner, got out of my uniform and took the subway down. My mom said she would pick us up at the same subway station at eight. So, we went down to MEC and omg! IT'S HUGE. It's all supplied with stuff like snowboarding, kayaks, sporty clothing, thermal underwear, bike stuff, water bottles, camping stuff, etc. It was pretty cool. I discovered how much of a spoiled city kid I've becomed. It's quite sad. So, Steph vowed to un-city-fy me over the summer by taking me camping. Yippee. Sleeping on the cold earth in a bug-filled tent.
Doesn't sound that bad. Mais, my inner city kid is clenching. Oh well, I'll rough it. I will be un-citified!!! (I'm trying out the different spellings. Is it city-fied or citified?) Anyways, so we finished shopping - I got two pairs of thermal leggings, two hats and a booklight - with the giftcards I earned through the CN Tower Climb. Steph bought me a hat for Christmas, and a delicious hot chocolate with extra whipped cream, extra vanilla powder and extra chocolate sprinkles from Second Cup that we shared. Instead of taking a street car back to the subway station, like we did to get to MEC, we walked. We passed two theatres, a church and the CN Tower. We pretended like we were going to go see Dirty Dancing and the Sound of Music. People gave us weird looks, it was fun.
So, we almost missed our stop on the subway - but we didn't. That's the important thing. We were there right on time, then we went to my brother's hockey game, where we had an intense talk about environmentalism. It was interesting, but a lot of times my views are shared. Ie: Leather is bad. The cow was probably skinned alive or electrocuted vaginally or beheaded while conscious. This cow deserves to live its life. On the other hand, we can use this same cow for meat, which we've been doing since the beginning of time - basically. Then again, meat farms are the number one cause of global warming because of all the pollution they produce. I don't know. I guess I still eat cow, but I won't wear leather?
ANYWAYS. OFF TOPIC. We got home after the game at like 10:30. I showered, then started working on my portfolio. I finished at 1-ish. At least I finished. Sigh.
Now, Mr. Career Teacher is collecting the portfolios and doing interviews. I'm scared. REALLY scared. I'm going to fail miserably. Oh well...
Tonight, Megan, Gio and I are going mini-golfing. Yippee. (: Hopefully. Megan isn't in class, so I don't know if she's coming or not. And Gio is sick, so I'm not sure. If not, then I guess I'll hang out with Steph some more. Sharlene (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!) says I've been deprived. I probably have. Oh well. :P
I say that a lot.

Excitement GALORE!
AntiPrincess has been very busy people! Between my music project, my geography project, my english homework and my social life I've had virtually no blog time. Yesh, so this is my entire long weekend: Friday - SWIMMING [Blog Topic #1] Saturday - Shopping with mom + brother, ICK! + homework+ illness Sunday - illness+ trying to work Monday - working to my strongest ability while coughing in my deathbed.
No, beloved readers, I am not dying. I simply have killer migranes [once again, not literally], an incredibly stuffy nose and a really sore throat. Still, I needed a social life so I went swimming on Friday with QS, Sofia, Arjel and Vanessa. It was way beyond awesome.
The little cowards all wore one pieces except for Sofia and moi; mais, we had sooooooooooo much fun. We went on the slides like forty thousand times, they disapproved of every hot guy i pointed out, spent time in the hot tub and sauna, and played with piggy pig. The most memorable moment of the night was probably trying to float on giant float-boards, while we were playing monkey in the middle between 5 people. It was hilarious, and awesomely fun. I'll try blogging about it more later, I really am just summarizing and am not really willing atm to explain all our inside jokes to the worldwideweb.
Then Saturday through Monday I was sick and mostly working on my music project. Woo hoo. What fun.
Then came Tuesday - NIAGARA FALLSSSSSSSS!!!! Woo! It was hilarious. We went to learn about geography... Psh, yeah right. I was on the bus with QM with QS and Sofia in front of us, Sara beside us and Arjel and Emmerz behind us. It was hilarious - we played truth or dare, listened to music, and laughed at the randoms on the highway. Then, we visited the Welland Canal, boring much? It was probably the second most boring experience of my life. After the Welland Canal we continued to the Niagara Escarpment and took a hike. Downhill was fine - everybody was complaining though. We finally got to the river and it was beautiful and the scenery was amazing. Then we got stuck on a rock about a metre from shore, it was sooooo funny because at first, the water was really low and we all could walk to the rock. So we did, and then a current of water came rushing in and we were STUCK on the rock. LOL! Yepsh, then, we all got 15 minutes or so to take pictures on the rocks and stuff - our teachers are very understanding about the fact that we are GIRLS. So, I went the farthest and we took loads of pictures. I'll upload a few of my favourites later.. [Insert Pictures Here] Yepsh, then we hiked uphill and nobody was complaining, because we were too busy PANTING! Mr Capps got us lost and took us around in circles on the steepest hill of the entire escarpment! When we finally got un-lost, we'd lost like half an hour of our lunch. Then we had 12 flights to climb, and then we got to sit in a field - which I rather enjoyed - for a few minutes while we were waiting for the other class to catch up. Hmmmmmmm. What was next? Oh my gosh. QS just showed me a link for a video called "Zombie Strippers" I'm kinda scared. In what messed up fantasy do you want to do a zombie or watch a zombie strip for that matter? Perverted! Anyways, yesh. So then we left the escarpment and went to Clifton Hill where we got an hour for lunch! So, our little group set off; little not. Group Includes: Megan, Pamela [QM], Giovanna[QS], Sofia, Arjel, Emily [Emmerz], Diana, Sara and Rebecca. We passed the Hard Rock Cafe on the way to the Hershey Factory and took a picture with all the stars. Then Hershey factory, we met my future husband - Mr Hershey - and we took loads of pictures. Then, we actually went on Cliffton Hill and went to Wendy's for lunch. After a few hours of eating lunch [30 minutes, EXAGERATION] we went our seperate ways. Rebecca+ Gio = shopping; Sofia + Megan + Sara + me = FUN HOUSE!; Pam + Arjel = icecream while they wait for us; Diana + Emmerz = Unknown.
Funhouse was AWESOME!!!! I'll post more later, I'm really not in the blogging mood right now. Au revoir.
dISASTROUSLY,

Concert + RUGBY!!!!!

Bored in BTT... x5
Once upon this disaster called life, I am so bored!!!
Oh. Mon. Dieu.
We're learning about MS Access, and it is the slowest, most boring thing in the world. Even my CPR-C course was more interesting!!! YAWNFEST! Oh yay! HERE COMES GIO! :D Lol, we're talking about our husbands - the Jonas Brothers. Nooooooooooo, I'm not writing a prayer in French, GIO! Gosh, can you believe she thought I was writing a prayer in French simply because I started with "oh mon Dieu"? I have no life. It's not my fault... I am so bored and because Access isn't working, we get the next half hour to do whatever we want. Well, we're supposed to be searching recipes for our countries but I'll just ask my friends. My school has an international picnic every year, and my country was the Philippines. :) It'll be a sitch! I have so many Filipino friends, it's not even funny. I'm trying to learn tagalog, unfortunately I only know two things. Kamusta ka? Lol, for all you people who don't know Filipino, it means how are you? So, yeah, I'll just ask them for a recipe or dessert or something then they can come over and we can have a Filipino party. :) Woo hoo! Lol. Anyways.... B. O. R. E. D. O. M.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bored.
Truth is, I'm quite smitten at the moment. But nobody needs to know that minor fact. Lol.
Grrrr, I have reach for the top practice today after school. I think. I'm pretty sure. (Turns out, I did... But no game on Thursday. :D )
Want to hear something funny?
Okay, so my birthday party - March break. I come back to school and I have geography on the Tuesday. My friend, Angie, has my geography teacher on the Monday, period 2. Apparently she told him to ask me how my party was and they want me to think of something funny. I'm accepting ideas. I can't exactly think of anything funny on the spot. People tell me I'm funny, personally, I don't see how. My sense of humour is really dorky. Anyways, so I ask Gio (she's starting to be a regular) and she says: "Say we sung Kumbuhyah around a camp fire. Say I was there, and he'll believe you." Funny huh? It was one of those "you had to be there" moments.
Speaking of my birthday party, we watched Good Luck Chuck, right? Holy crap, the funny comments! For all you who've seen it, you know how the girl's name is Carol? Yeah, well, when we were watching it there was like 30 kids in my living room. My friend Carol was sitting on the floor, and Dane Cook is like: "Oh Carol!" You should've heard the laughter, we could not STOP laughing. Literally. It was so funny. All the guys (who don't know her) were probably thinking WTF?! Oh well, it was so funny. And Gio is obsessed with penguins, right? So at the beginning of my party, we were all telling everybody lies about each other... [It said, right? before but I just noticed how many times I've said that in the last paragraph. :P] I don't know the full story but Angie ended up telling me that Gio gets horny with penguins. (Lmao, she's so angry for me telling you readers all this.) So... Anyways, whenever there were penguins, we were like: "Gio! STOP GETTING HORNY!" or "Gio... We know you love them." I was sitting behind the couch on my awesome chair, and Angie was in front of me making all these comments with yours truly and my good friend Michael was sitting beside her going "wtf?" It was too funny...
Anyways, yeah. I had a blast. Soooo many funny moments. :P
So, for all you who are reading this - thanks. :) For all you who are looking at the date going what the f$#*? I was originally writing this on the Wednesday... so the 19th, but then the bell rang to let us out of class and I didn't get to finish it. Also, why I added some stuff as to what happened.
You know what? Nobody reads this anyways.
Toodles,

B...T...T... AGAIN!
Snow day - AGAIN... And my teacher fails to show up for school so instead of doing work, we get a free day. Supply teacher (aka dragon twitch twitch) is breathing down my neck so I have to be careful about not getting caught doin my blogg, updatin my bloggy pals, right bloggy pals? RIGHT! Lol, I know - I am the lamest person in the world. After a while, you get used to it...
WHICH REMINDS ME!!! Okay, don't take this offensively or racistly, cause my geography teacher - he's just like that...
I'm in AP Geography.. (not bragging)... which means Advanced Placement. It's like for the esp. smart... Which I'm not but yeah.. So, he leaves to go photo copy something for us cause we're lazy asses, and he says that we can either copy notes and stay in class or photo copy notes, discuss it and then go to the caf. Woo Hoo. :D So, he goes to photo copy the notes, and this girl (I go to an all girl's school) goes and writes: "Yo, whats poppin' G?" on the overhead sheet. Also, this girl in my class hides in the cupboard - FUNNY! - and our teacher comes back in... He a) doesn't notice that she's gone, b) cries, "WHY IS THE WINDOW OPEN?!" (we later told him that she jumped out the window) c) reads the sheet.
Hands out photo copies. "You girls are alll SSOOOOO gangster."
"No, sir... It's -"
"Right, sorry... You're so gangstaaa"
We all laugh for a good five minutes. He finishes handing out the sheets.
"Girls..." Sigh. "You know wonderbread?"
Weird and confused looks, "Um... yeeeeeees?"
"You know how white it is?"
WTF IS HE SAYING? "Yeah."
"Well... You're all whiter than wonderbread."
Omg. We could NOT, literally NOT, stop laughing.
Then of course, he found the girl and we all went to the caf.
Anyways, more funny moments.
Did I mention the green lemons? Oui.
Morgan? Nope.
Okay, so me and my friend go into choir. And it usually starts at 7:30 AM. We walk in like 5 minutes late, and we hear our conductor/ VP playing the piano, so we assumed we were late. There's like 2 people there, ok? It was like: "Oh, we're not interrupting." So we sit down closer to the front than usual. He greets us and says, "Morgan." I, think nothing of it, but my friend says, "Sir, it's Megan..." So he looks at us and gives us a confused look? I'm like: "It's Megan, Sir." And he's like: "Noooo! Morgan is good morning in German." So we start laughing, funny, funny, funny...
OOOOOOOOOooooooooooookay. Um...? What else?
Yeah, that's about it...
No donation's yet? PWEASE PEOPLE!
It's for a GREAT cause!
Oh, My, God!
Funniest moment of my life: "You cause awkward moments Pam!" "My life is awkward moments."
My new favourite quote. :)
Okee dokee then.
Au revoir,
AntiPrincess
PS: If anybody knows Miley Cyrus, do me a favour and slap her silly? Slap some sense into her, PLEASE! Like, honestly? I hate her. No offense to all you Miley Cyrus fans..

Bored in BTT x3
K, I know you readers will probably be bored with my "bored in BTT" blogs by now but... Hey... Your choice to read it. :P
You can very well not read this blog - but if you choose to read it - Thank you! (Cute smiley!) :)
Anyways... We started Microsoft Access Database today... Snorefest! Why would we, teenagers, need to use a database? Yesh; maybe when we're older but by then we'll have new technology and will probably forget we even took business!!! Oh well, maybe I can make a database of people I know and parties and plans and stuff - I remember everything anyways but oh well - it will help. My birthday is coming up and I FINALLY got everything planned - well, except wtf we're gonna do at my house. It's probably gonna be awkward... Just a little. Oh, who am I kidding? It's gonna be SUPER DUPER awkward! We're all going to get awkward fever. LMAO! You don't get the joke... I think it's my messed up super-nerd humour. :P
Maybe I will make a database. Or maybe not... I'll get bored and end up making one. Lol.
K, quick update:
Party soon. Check.
Oh! My brother's hockey team came in 3rd in houseleague. The last game that determined whether they came in 2nd or 3rd, they tied 7-7. Since the other team had more goals for, they came in 2nd... Still, 3rd is awesome... And they're still in the playoffs. And it was pretty funny because he has a bunch of friends in houseleague from select hockey and they were all talking during the games... Yelling at each other and such.
This week at my place it's like a family reunion. I swear, my house is a hotel. My aunt and uncle have a conference to go to for work this week (respectively) so they'll be staying at my house... I don't mind 'cause I never see them but it's a little bit funny when family comes all at once for 2 weeks straight, then nobody for 2 months. :P
Readers? You looking forward to March break? ME TOO! I can't wait... I already have plans - I have to take a CPR-C course for lifeguarding so... But other than that, I have my awesome birthday party, and I'll probably go swimming with some friends from work (as lifeguards) and probably at least two movies. Maybe even dinner or lunch with friends? I'm not sure yet... I'll probably update my blog quite a bit too... You know, keep my imaginary readers updated.
Lol... And if there are actual people reading this - sorry. :) Thanks for reading!
Happy March!,
AntiPrincess.
PS: VERY IMPORTANT!!! I am climbing the CN Tower to raise money for World Wildlife Fund, to help stop global warming. If you guys would donate money - it would be VERY much appreciated. Thanks!!!

Bored in BTT x2 (Gio's AWESOME Poem!)
Yesh, yesh... I know. Next class, I'll have something to do so don't worry... There won't be too many blog posts from business class for a while. Anyways... My friend Giovanna - ily<3 - wrote this amazing poem. And, I just got more work for next class... So there might be a blog for that class too. But then we start Access and Powerpoint, so that'll keep me busy for a few weeks. Then March Break. YAY! Anyways, Gio's poem... K. If you're a publisher - msg me! I write too. Good... I've won a few writing contests... YESH! Gio's poem. Right.
K; read:
A Burning Dream
A dream so big,
she aims so high!
Sky's the limit,
but why does she cry?
Doors are open,
but no one helps her through.
They don't understand
her desires are true.
She tries so hard
for what she wants the most.
To laugh and not cry,
and maybe even boast.
Presenting all options,
opportunties galore.
Giving her the chance
to show her stuff and soar.
It's hard to take,
to stand up and hear:
"It's not what's best for you,
trust me, my dear."
So she's left alone,
with her burning dream.
Will she have the courage
to stand up and scream?
-Giovanna Campagna.
Okay, tell me that wasn't amazing?! It was, right? It connects so much and so much emotion shines through. Plus, it rhymes. :) My kind of poem. My personal favourite poet? Robert Frost - and Dr. Seus! ;) Lol.
Full credit to Gio!
Woo hoo! Loved it!
Anyways,
I'm gonna start this work... Joy. (Insert eye roll!)
Signing off.
AntiPrincess.
PS: Gio, you rock.. Maybe I'll post my poems? Nah...
Feb 19, 2008
Bored in BTT
Yes, I'm in business and I'm actually quite amazed that the board didn't block this site.
Stupid blocking, it's preventing me from playing games. Yesh, I get bored in Business cause, let's face it: I'm a computer geek, and I'm like four lessons ahead. Okay, one class, big difference! I was going to play the Impossible Quiz - fun, FUN, FUN! - but, naturally (insert eye roll) it's blocked. Zipadeedoodah! Lol. I love that movie. It's 4th Period too, so I'm out of my mind bored. Not to mention I have NO HOMEWORK! Yay. So that gives me the entire evening to practice my flute... What do you expect? I told you I was a geek. Not to mention a dork - but hello? Dorks are awesome! I know; it's like I'm saying that being popular is lame. But hey, who says a dork isn't popular? I'm not one of those dorks with the high suspenders and glasses - nothing against those people. I did have braces though - so now, my teeth are nice and straight. (Bright smile). Yesh... So... Boredom. B-O-R-E-D-O-M. Boredom is my kingdom. Tee hee. =] ... Well, it kinda rhymes. Oh give me a break, I'm bored. OUT OF MY MIND! Yesh, anyways. It's true, I am the Queen of Boredom. I do have a life. Which will bring me to my next topic: my life this weekend.
At the end of a four-day weekend, there comes Tuesday... And when Tuesday comes around, you hate it just as much as Monday after a four-day weekend. Nobody slept really well cause - UCK! - it's Monday eve... Tomorrow there's school. Plus when you sleep in till like 11 from being up till like 2 the night before, and you're going to bed 11 hours later (10) - you tend not to be tired... Anyways. Well, Thursday was V-day.. To be dreaded and boycotted. IT'S VALENTINES DAY! WOO HOO! NOT! It's just a stupid holiday made by the greeting card company... Honestly, if we got a day off - I wouldn't hate it so much. But we don't. So therefore, it's a stupid holiday with cupid and cutips... Sorry, I meant arrows. See - my mind is still in deadlock. Plus side - CANDY! Downside - this year, it's during Lent. Yesh, I'm a Catholic dork... [Don't judge.] And YESH! I use brackets alot... Once again - don't judge. ... Shoot darts at hearts! Boycott V Day!! Where was I? Oh! My weekend... Right... Thursday I did absolutely nothing. I stayed at home and came up with clever sayings (see above) with my friends as to why we hate Valentines day... Aka Single Awareness Day? Not my idea... So. Night. Morning. PA DAY! Yipee! That was NOT sarcastic! I call my best friend forever (not 4eva - forever) and we make plans for lunch at this caffe that has the best (I mean best!) hot cocoa in the entire universe. Demetres. We meet there at 2 and have large hot cocoas. Then we spilt for a pep. pizza and I buy us two small hot cocoas. We were there till 4 so you can imagine all the good times. Nosy nosies. NO! I will not go into details. Then we go back to my place and watch... um... what's it called?... RIGHT! Happy Feet! Yesh, we were bored and my dad stole all our DVD's and took them to the cottage, so we had a very low selection and decided to watch happy feet. About half way through the movie - after what's-his-face meets the little Spanish penguins - my brother comes down and wants to know if we want to go see One Missed Call. Me, hating horror movies, and her, loving them but loving me more... ily! <3... decided not to watch the horror movie, but instead Water Horse. We completely soaked our popcorn in butter - lol, popcorn soup - and laughed at all the little kids who were laughing and screaming and crying. Movie was done, and my brother's movie wasn't finished yet - he went with his friend from hockey, they're younger... If they were older, then we would SO go with them, lmao! - so we walked around.AMC isn't exactly like yorkdale, it's JUST then theatre. But it's alot more comfy and the seats, it's like sitting on HEAVEN! Anyways, so we take the elevator (we're not lazy, there were no stairs!) and go up to the second floor. There, we see a light that keeps flickering, and both of us being quite fearful of the grudge, decide to go back down... We scare my brother and his friend coming out of the theatre, and practically run to get out of there. Naturally, my brother gives us all the horrorful details on the way home and when I turn on my cell phone and get the message: One Missed Call, I, of course, a) scream, b) throw the phone to my friend and c) demand that my mom keep it away from me! Anyways... That was Friday. Good times. I really enjoyed it. It was like the ultimate day. If I could redo any day of my life - it'd be that day. I probably would've said grad, except it was too sad to do over every day. Plus, my valedictorian speech prevented me from truly enjoying myself. And the hair and make up was TORCHOREOUS! So then Saturday, I didn't do anything. I started - notice I didn't say do - my homework, then stopped, then braided my hair then watched TV for like, a thousand hours. Then I went to church and yesh, that was my Saturday. Oooh! And the Leaf game. Can't believe we won. MIRACLE! Then Sunday comes - parents are at work, I sleep in till 11 (usual) and I make plans with my friends for 5ish. Actually, if you want percise, it was quarter to 6. So, my bff (the same one from Friday) and my other bff (I have quite a few) go to see Step Up 2 at Yorkdale aka dorkdale. IT WAS AMAZING!!! It was really good. Highly recommend it. 8/10. Yesh, I rate everything out of 10... Unfortunately (another eye roll), we saw an old friend... Well, we kinda hate each other but will tolerate each other so... We hung out with him and his friends, and laughed at him as he obviously has too much time because he rules at DDR - Dance Dance Revolution.. DUH! So, we got our popcorn and a mega-huge drink - mmmmm. iced tea - and went and got seats. Movie. Over. We were waiting for my mom to pick us up (yesh, I basically have a chauffer... but I NEVER take it for granted.. HONEST!) and went into indigo. I had a $10 gift card left over from Christmas so I bought a new book - guess which one? - and then we took some pics while waiting. Can you believe that my old "friend" wanted to play hide and seek in Indigo? CHYEAH! I know!! Anyways... So I went home, read till 2, went to bed and fell asleep. Monday - Family Day - once again, my parents were at work... So, my brother hogs the computer as I finish my homework and practice my flute. He tells me that his friend invited him to go play shinny and he leaves. I stay home for a while, my brother gets home, my mom gets home. We all head off to my brother's hockey game, which he ties 3-3. He didn't play - he's on a select team and a goalie, so the two goalies alternate, he'll play next game. Lately, they've been in a slug, like a 7 game losing streak, but before, they were AMAZING... Like 4-0 every game! Unforunately, that's the best they've done in a while. If they're reading this for some strange reason - sorry guys, you're not on a roll, now are you? Yeah...Then we came home and here I am. At school. Bored, near the end of class. Sorry about that - I started near the beginning, but then we took a break to correct some stuff and yeah. 10 minutes till I escape to freedom - well, to the public transit. Oh well... Tis better than school. Which reminds me, uuuuugh. Math.... I'm in AP - DORK! - advanced placement and part of that is writing a math competition. So I did that this morning in 1st period. To be honest with you, it wasn't THAT hard. I mean, it wasn't like 1+1 or anything (4, by the way. Lol. Jokes.) but only the latter parts were like E= mc(mc)... That's MC sqaured for you... Since, I don't know how to do superscript on blogs? Anyways... As a "break", today in math, after lunch, we went into the library and played Rush Hour - you know that game with the cars where you have to get the red car to the exit? YES! That! Anyways... I got to lvl 11 and pretty much gave up. I don't have that much patience. Anyways, I was going to pracitce that but I guess I'm out of time... How long is this blog?
K, well, my thoughts are now condensed.
