HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Yesterday, I had Thanksgiving with my aunt's family! It was so much fun! We talked about so many things and the food was great! My cousin made me eat calloo (sp?) which is some mashed up spinach and looks nasty. It tasted alright. Then we had janny cake! It's one of my favourite foods.
Now today, we have to go to my mom's side of the family to do what she calls "flower giving." Basically, we just go there so her aunts can appreciate our company and stuff while they are still alive... O.o We also have ice-cream cake! My sister graduated (her commencement is on Oct. 21st), so my mom's side of the family, specifically my aunt, wanted her to have a party. She doesn't want one, so we decided that if we get a cake and bring it while everyone's there, then they would stop asking her about it.
Anyways, school has been, well school! It's so hard to pay attention. I think I failed my Biology short test today. I knew I saw everything in the text book as I did the test, but I didn't remember anything! I never even completed all of my homework in days, and I really don't even care! What ever happened to me doing my homework dilgently?!
I officially hate group projects. My friend and I got suckered into a group, and it was just horrible! We were supossed to meet at the library last Saturday, but they couldn't make it. It was so stressful! We got a 20/28, which was the lowest mark in our class. It's pretty good, but not if you need an 80% average for a certain school... -_-'
I guess I should make a greater effort to finish everything. I really tried today! Really!
Scool today!
I start school today. I am in my final year of high school. If I try to be happy and a positive person about it, maybe it will be more enjoyable. Anyways, now that marks matter I'm going to be a study maniac. Last time I became this (in grade 9) my mom started to yell at me and told me to have some fun. She said something about wasting my youth. Meh, I'll comment on your sites later. Comments (0) |

Hello
I've never been on in so long. I've been working at least 10 hours every single day at a clothing store since last Monday. I took today off.
It's at the CNE(Canadian National Exhibition.) But, these people are so ridiculus! I don't even know where to start.
Ok, it's like an underground job, my cousin and I call it a sweatshop. They (the people at the clothing store) told us that we weren't allowed to take any days off, or leave early because we cannot work there if we do. Then, last week, they started taking people off. They were all like, we have too much people, so they fired the old ladies. Then on Saturday, we thought we were getting off at 8pm. We always start at 9am though... Anyways, they then told us that we have to leave at 9 or 10. Some girls got so angry that they left at 9 and never came back. I could understand why they left. After they heard that we can't take any days off, or leave early. Anyways, one woman wanted to take Sunday off to spend time with her son, and that's how I found out all about this thing.
So, I went home one day, and told my mom about it, and she got all angry. So, while I was at work, she called the labour ministry, and it ended up that the clothing store isn't even who we really work for! We work for a temporary job agency, and we are allowed to take days off, and leave early if we want to. So, I took today off (just to spite the clothing store people and I think they know I know too much) and I'm quitting on Saturday.
But, my idiotic mom (I should feel like a horrible daughter to be saying this, but I really don't care) she was all like how I should stay until Monday even though SHE was the one who was talking about how sleazy these people were and how she didn't come to Canada for her children to get jobs like this. Then she went on to say how I should work some more days to buy her something (if she wants more stuff then she should go back to work,) even though this isn't a real job! This morning she told me how I shouldn't be complaining about the job and yelling at me because of how many Caribbean and other immigrants have to do the lower jobs and how us Canadians complain how they get all the jobs yet we won't take them ourselves. I really wanted to smack her after this. First of all, I already know this, but I DON'T complain about jobs that I wouldn't do! First of all, she even told me in the past that I have to get an education so I could get a good job. And now she's complaining that I am to prissy to do lower jobs and that I complain about immigrants taking those jobs even though I don't! Why would I complain about jobs that my own relatives took in order to get into Canada!
She makes me so angry. She's such hypocrite. I would have considered to work a few more days, but now I won't just to spite her.
I can’t wait till next year! I better get into university so I can leave! My sister’s are moving out next September too, to live in Toronto. I don’t think this is a good environment for me to be growing up in. She said something about how she was forced to do nursing and wake up early when she worked late to take care of my siblings and I. I didn’t ask to be born. If she didn’t want kids, she should have got her tubes tied.
T_T
My poor friend! I was wondering what happened to her, and it ended up that she had to go to the hospital for an emergency surgery! I hope she gets better soon!
Yesterday, and the day before, I went to the movies. I saw John Tucker Must Die (I saw it before, but I finally saw the beginning) and The Decent on Thursday. Those creatures in the cave reminded me of Gollum. Then on Friday, since one of my cousin's is visiting from St. Kitts, we saw 'Step Up.' Well, actually it's because one of my cousins is obsessed with the male lead.
I feel like I wasted my summer. I'm going to go to 'The Taste of the Danforth' tomarrow, but the rest of the summer I will be working everyday. Except Sept 1-3. I have to go to an anime con.
Anyways, I feel as if all my energy is sucked out of me. My mom is so emo it's depressing. I don't like talking to her anymore because she always sounds so angry/irritated and makes me feel so sad.
What a day!
This morning I went to some tennis tournament! One of my sisters had a hook up from her university friend. It was soo much fun! But, hot! We really fit in well with the rich people. We didn't even look like commoners! Heh, my sister told me that I gotta stop with the manga. It's not my fault that most of my life lessons are learned from manga.
Some Aussie, his last name was Authers had some crazy tantrums as he played! First, he didn't get the ball over the net. So, he got all hot and bothered and kept hitting the ball, which kept hitting the net. Another time he got angry again and made his racket slide accross the court. Before we left, he got all tantrumy again, and hit the ball up straight into the air. It flew up, and the crowd was all like O.o (including me) These balls are travelling about 200km/h... And it flew up, and ended up landing in the bleachers. Luckily it didn't hit anyone. But, I wish it hit me. I could have gotten some compensation.
We left in between the match, and went to go visit my aunt. Then, we went home to pick up my brother and went to Denny's. The food there is so... heavy... I got myself some french toast. As we headed to drop my sister to the train station, my cousin called. She needed a drive home from her first aid classes. She's going to my sister's university next year for the nursing program. Anyways, we picked her up, and it ended up that we were wearing the same top we bought in the states! It was extra weird because when she called we we're passing by the place she needed to be picked up, and we don't even live in that city.
Anyways, it was a nice day. I updated my fanfic! Finally after two months! I think today's one of my friend's birthdays... I better send her an e-card just in case.
Ok, I got an 83 or so on my essay. I failed that stupid answer essay questions thingy. 14/30
-sigh- I ran out of time! If I had enough time, I could have at least gotten and 18 or higher. But, I feel uber confident that I did well on the literary terms part of the exam today.
I have a weird obsession with missing the 90s, so I bring this to you:
I miss the 90s! So much quality television and cartoons. I saw this video on youtube and thought it was hilarious.
I think Carmen is Canadian. ^^ lol
But, Cheif died a few years back. it's really sad T_T
Anywhoo, I gotta go. Walmarts an evil corp because I swear they are taking over the world. So is: Starbucks, MSN, Microsoft, McDonald's and there is probably a few more...
Heeheehee
I'm posting this in class. Yes, that's right folks, I'm at school! (Oh the horror!) Ok, I took a bunch of fun quizes.
But, what really sucks is that I stayed up till about 2:30am last night to finish ALL of my book report project thing. So, I have a whole lot of time to waste. Plus, I feel really sick. I shouldn't have drunk that stuff last night. It's making my stomach go funny. I feel so tired...
Anyways, my friend and I have decided that we will go to the evil corporation tomarrow. Wal-mart is the land of clothing patterns! It would make anyone go to the dark side. I decided that I will try to find some historical costumes patterns. I picked out some of them online: link I'm thinking the pirate, kimono and cape. I still have to post up a pic with me in my yukata. But, from this site, I want to make alot of these costumes! They are so pretty. ^_^
Anyways, I better get back to searching for guitar tabs. My friend and I might go to long and mcquade (a music store) to get a string for my now five string guitar. It really wasn't my fault. It was my mom's. She went in my room and touched stuff. -_-'
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

What a day!
