   So, yesterday was interesting, ne?
Kicked off pretty nicely, I must say. Got to the bus stop to go to school, and got into a line for one of the doors to the bus (it opens all of them so we can get on faster, which is then regulated by extra transit people). The transit people then pointed out these little rubber footmats along the sidewalk. It seems people were getting sick or something from what people were bringing onto the bus on their shoes, so we were told to wipe our feet before getting on the bus.

Now, let me tell you that these mats were SMALL! I mean, they were like, 1'x1.5'! But, nevertheless, the bus came, opened the doors, and we all wiped our feet as we entered the bus - all rather ridiculous, I must say, yes. But yeah, after we were all filed in, the transit lady stuck her head in the door and tells us,
"Everyone, I want to thank you all for cooperating and wiping your feet. Have a good day, and enjoy your April Fool's Day."

It was about that point when the bus started moving away and we all just looked at each other . . . . . "we've just been had, haven't we?" So yeah, I got taken for a ride that day too, if that helps . . . . .

Aside from that, later in the day I got my Film essay back (which rocked), went home and finished watching the Kyoto arc of Rurouni Kenshin, and then went BACK to school in the evening for a Battle of the Bands that my friend was competing in.

The best part about that competition? I was the official cameraman for them! I mean, I just came to watch, but then my buddy was like, "hey, can you do this for us?" So I spent most of their set walking back and forth, snapping pictures of them. Oh, and I also held the toque of the keyboarder as well (Toque (n.): Canadian term for winter-type cap worn especially for skiing and the like; from what I remember, it may also be known as a "beanie"). I didn't get to stick around for the judging, but they got quite the crowd pop, so they should have done rather well . . . OH! And they had a Lite-Brite with their band name pegged into it!!! Haha!

So yeah, that was Thursday.
