"have I told you already that I think your are starting off this journey toward your scholarly voice with excellent writing skills - good."This is followed by:
"I hoped to see your first attempt at summary here today? For Wed. please try to get up to exercise #7 (73)"Which roughly translates to: You are so fail because you haven't even attempted your homework, so do it now or else!
Is it wrong that I do not miss home?
I was there.
Faery Tale Online (FTO for short) is a text based RPG. There's a long queue to be born. Yes, your character gets born into a family. I signed up in January and didn't have a character until June. Well, I think that's all the background info you need.
Basically, I logged into FTO to find my parents murdered by my brother. Shock shock! I was pretty shocked, confused, and upset about this whole ordeal which was apparently sparked by my sister's attempt at killing our mother. Due to some poor wording the log showed this:
"Sister was killed by mother"
When in fact my sister was killed in her attempt to kill our mother. And in a flash, one of my brothers kills our father and mother because he thought that our mother intentionally killed our sister. A different brother tries to avenge for our parents but gets killed in the process.
Crazy huh?
Then we get a lot of craziness in the FTO forums, where it becomes a Team A vs. Team B issue depending on whose story you believed in.
Lumin, our almighty admin resurrected the parents and brother into a different location. My character also get teleported too. yay! She heard Jeuno (their god) speak to her! No way?! Yes way! Wow, don't I seem like a gamer nerd? I wonder how the rest of the colony will fend for themselves.
Today I cooked dinner for the family: dad, bro, and sis - because my mum is in Vancouver to visit my older brother and a friend of hers.
I cooked the bacon and peas, and eggs and tomatoes.
Sorry for such a short post but I have to get my homework done and go to sleep. I need to walk the dog and make breakfast tomorrow morning! How I miss my mother doing all this work.
As you can see here today, I have decided to switch to a different template. Obviously, I lack the skills to create my own template so I googled for one.
I like it.
Graduation
Very very happy! At approximately 8-9 o'clock on a wonderful Friday evening I received my diploma! May 22nd, that is. I also won some scholarships and I am very grateful to the scholarship donors; the money will greatly help towards my educational expenses.
Since my last name starts with a "W" I was veeery near the end of the line to walk up. When I mean veeery near the end, I mean second to last. My friend since kindergarten was last. He was very nervous. I was so happy that I could sit with him during the grad ceremony. Being able to have him by my side calmed my nervousness a bit... I think it may have been because he was more nervous than I was. I don't think he realized how important he was to me for those 3 hours. We aren't very close though. Oh well. I don't think I'll ever forget him though. We went to elementary school together for a short time because he had transferred to a different school in grade 3. We didn't go to the same school again until high school.
His memories: Taking my cookies at recess time.
My memories: He had very neat and girly writing. We all envied him.
That Person
I guess this is a little strange for me to post this since I never really talk about my personal feelings even on the internet. After the Graduation ceremony most of us grads gathered together at a party. I remember my feelings for that person started a year ago at a friend's party... it was also on the night of last years graduation ceremony.
A year ago, after that party... that person seemed to be avoiding me at school. I sensed that our friendship wasn't the same anymore. The air between us had changed.
So, it has been a year. A year of awkwardness. Yes, we were both awkward around each other for an entire year but yet neither of us has said a word about it. I think the ice between us has melted a bit since last year but the friendship is not the same as it was before that night.
I will truly miss this person when I leave. Maybe the time spent being away from this person will help me lose those feelings for this person. Maybe we can be friends again like before. I just want for things to be like before. None of that awkwardness.
Maybe I'm over thinking this. Maybe it is just me? Maybe this person doesn't think of me the same way I think of this person? Either way, I hope this ice between us melts while we are apart.
At the grad party, the person didn't talk to me much but I couldn't help but notice that this person would give me glances once in a while. Like, seriously, stop giving me hints because I am not going to be making the first move. I want for us to be friends again. It was better that way. This person has been known to be very wishy-washy and plays around with people, even I know that.
Next year, will I see this person again? Will it be at a party? Will it be exactly a year later?
This person is not the same person as my friend who sat beside me during the grad ceremony. ^^
I've been hearing about this thing called "Twitter" for a very long time now. My knowledge of Twitter was that it was basically just a status update. In other words, Facebook in the nude. But why is it so popular? Can't people just settle with Facebook and be down with it? So in order to solve this mystery I headed over to Twitter and created an account. Can't say that I'm very impressed. It really isn't all that interesting. Interestingly though, two status updates later I had already gained a grand total of two followers. Yes, TWO followers. Sadly, these were spam followers. Both accounts were something along the lines of "Brittney Sex Videos". Something Twitter has but Facebook doesn't. Good job to you, Twitter.
On another note, I've been making multiple test timetables for my year at UBC. They call these worklists， and are used to help you create a timetables with courses that you may want to register in. Afterworking on my friend's UNBC timetable for over an hour, we both concluded that the principal of our highschool must be amazing to be able to make a school wide timtable for 500+ students.
It is NOT EASY trying to get your courses to fit nicely. And I also have criterea such as no early mornings on Mondays and trying to get out of school by 3pm. So far my latest class ends at 5:00pm. Not that I can do anything about it since I'm working with a standard time table. I =do= have a worklist where my latest classes are at 3:30 but my lunch breaks would be weird. I will eventually get this sorted out. Just need to have my fingers crossed.
I think there is something in my left eye....
