Yo guys,
I've been really all over the place lately, both figuratively and literally. haha. To start, I've decided against getting a job for the summer. As such I will need to save as much money as possible before my grad school funding starts coming in in September.
One way I am intending to do that is by biking everywhere all summer. This started a week or so ago and the amount of biking has steadily increased from about 5 minute trips to 30 minute trips. I really like biking. Ever since my housemate back in 2nd year got me a bike and convinced me to bike to school. Then in Saskatoon I was also too cheap to buy a bus pass, so I got a kijiji bike and biked 15 minutes to work each day. It was so good. Just the freedom of being able to bike wherever, whenever, for free is so great. Especially with this perfect Ottawa summer weather.
To enjoy the weather further I've signed up for a membership with a local tennis club. It was $50 for the entire season! So cheap! And I convinced JF to join too. xP. So I'll be playing all the time. We joined the ladder too, so about 8 games per month at least. The practice game we played last week was good. After having been off for a while I can relearn how to serve well. I ended up getting a number of aces! =D But it was a typical match for me where I kind of trail just behind the guy I'm playing. The score ended up being 8-7 for JF where he was only ever ahead by 1 or 2 games, but we ended up usually being tied. (5 deuces in one game. haha) He said "You've got a talent, I'm not sure what it is, but you've got it." I always say it was my brother's doing (if I started winning he got angry).
Speaking of anger, knitting is very relaxing. haha. Unless you're knitting a blanket! This thing is 16 x 17 squares right now (each square a 18x10 garter stitch knit square, worsted weight, acrylic, size 9 needles) so roughly about 40 inches by 40 inches. Roughly. The intention is for a sitting blanket when you're cold on a couch. Nearly done! Not... Estimated to be another 27-60 hours of non-stop knitting. But I'm done with 1 of the 3 colours, but I might want to do a final border in the 1st colour. I really don't want to buy more yarn though. lol. Can't wait to start other projects! =D
Finally, a project I'd like to start up is relearning how to play trombone! Now that I'm free / I'll be a grad student in September, I'd like to join a band, whichever one NF was in (a Carleton band I think). So I need to learn trombone again and my mother can come listen. This is also partially caused by my current favourite anime: "Hibike! Euphonium". It's so good!!! Today's episode was about a concert band marching competition and they packed up all the instruments in a moving truck and went to the competition. "the male students are very useful in these situations" or something. Very true. They didn't need to move all the percussion though. haha.
I'll ttyl about more stuff.

Dread and Joy
"I've dread this more than I've dreaded anything else in my entire life."
Well, I haven't dread this that much, but I didn't want it to happen. I'm starting to get behind in my school work... >.> I'm trying to be really keen and get things done, do readings, etc. For two or three days in a row now I have not done any work at home. Actually things I wanted to do and planned for that weren't homework are also being shirked.
I meant to go buy groceries yesterday after getting home from school, but, for the purposes of being home at a reasonable hour so I could call some people, I had to leave to play tennis with my brother before buying groceries. In the end I came home with two big bags of groceries from my parents' house. lol
All my labs this week seem to be introductory labs, not actually doing anything, so I haven't had to really do pre-labs except for my plant biology class and that lab is going to be a piece of cake. The entire semester just cutting up plants, staining them with dyes and then looking at them under the microscope. lol. interesting, easy and awesome. lol
Umm. Ya, last night when I got home around 7:20 I procrastinated until 8, but then I started doing more follow-up calls and getting more meetings set up. I got four more meetings scheduled and I have another guy to call later today that I texted yesterday. So, that is awesome. xP
The meeting I just had an hour ago went really well. MD is really cool. He is originally from India, but grew up in Dubai and now lives with his uncle in Barrhaven. It's a bit of a commute to Carleton from there, but that's cool. He doesn't have a cell phone yet though. xP He was really interested in getting involved. He even asked for another magazine so that he could share it with one of his friends!
So far so good. Got a lab to go to.

Getting Back on Track
Hey. Today, or rather this weekend I hope to do all my prelabs for the coming week. I have done none today. First I had a large helping of No Name Quick Oats which I bought 2.25kg of the other day. I also have a kilo of sugar, so I should be okay. After breakfast we went to the Food Court on 2nd floor University Centre on campus for follow-up training and data entry. There are so many people interested in meeting up with us again! It's so exciting! And I get to help! Both scary and very exciting. I can't wait to meet these people and talk with them. I'm kinda worried that my schedule will kill any free time I have though, so I may not end up being able to help very much... We had pizza for lunch. Don't ask about the last four pieces. I don't know what happened to them. >.> I put them down at the bus station then chased after a bus. Anyways, I bussed a really long way around the city to get to worship practice.
[I just realized I wasn't finished posting this. lol]
Worship practice was really good. It was me, AL's brother AL, PE and NE on worship team. We went through the songs quickly and went home early. They drove me home. Then I was going to go play tennis with my brother. JS had asked if he could borrow my racket. It wasn't home yet, so I made Kraft Dinner for supper. I ran off to tennis. I thought the courts were way closer than they are... We played. It was a lot of fun. I went to my parents'. Ate ice cream and got a drive home with leftovers. xP I need to go buy some food...

Rolling in the Deep
Okay, so I'll admit that I'm not exactly the most up to date person when it comes to pop culture or new artists or anything. The other day I watched the Much Music video awards. Who is Adele..? That was my main question aside from many others. KFA said that she was pretty famous. lol. I haven't heard of her.
Anyways, Sunday was the church picnic at Vincent Massey Park. Another new brother and sister baptised showing their faith in Jesus and their choice to have a new life in Him. I was so happy for them. He had a young family and looked so excited to be getting baptised. I hope he sees how much his life is blessed.
I'd been really tempted ever since I got back from Toronto. A whole amazing week of doing something worthwhile and life changing for these children. There was no time for any sin. lol. Then I got back and there's been nothing but time. >.< And I can only be OCD so much of the day.
I actually ended up talking to RM who talked at Getaway about sin. He encouraged me.
Mostly all I have been doing is cleaning, watching anime, playing tennis, going to the hospital and sleeping. I saw my old Chemistry and Biology teacher today by the tennis courts. In an attempt to not be seen or recognized I avoided eye contact and removed my glasses. This worked for a little while, but he was doing stretches and so he had a lot of time to figure it out. GG asked about my summer and my jobs and stuff. In the end he went off jogging up and down Argue Drive. The thing was that I couldn't put my glasses back on because he would then see me wearing them. >.< So I had to play for a while without glasses. I actually think my sight has gotten a bit better. He doesn't know my brother yet, but he will. lol. He said to say hi to everyone, but I didn't want to text anyone and it's always really awkward saying someone says hello.
By the way, Adele has a few songs. The one that was nominated a lot 'Rolling in the Deep' is pretty good.
However, I actually saw my friend's cover first and I still think it is very good. Especially for them, it is one of their best covers so far. I think JG is getting better at singing. Although she apparently still hasn't had those singing lessons she said she would. >.>
Anyways,
Ttyl.

PS. YA was really cool. RL and DW were both there which was awesome. DW leaves in a few days for MacMaster. RL has a number of things to think / worry about but is content. Pray for them.
PPS. My mom is physically better. However, she isn't really thinking properly... So keep her in your prayers. She may be there for a few more days. She is not looking forward to it. She isn't sleeping during the nights. She doesn't like the hospital food. She has nothing to do with her time there. I don't want to see her in this state. I love her and want her to get better.

Physics "Test"
So.
Today I had a Physics Tutorial at 8:30. The way these tutorials work is that we work in pairs on some practice questions then we get a test relating to the practice questions.
YA, JC and ZB are in my Physics class and lab, so I am becoming friends with them. I knew of them while we were at MHS, but I never really hung out with them. (I knew a lot of people, but mostly just hung out with the giftees and the music kids and some drama kids.)
Did I mention how this physics class doesn't expect us to have taken Physics in high school..? So everything is very boring and I've already learned it.
Today's tutorial was about straight line motion.
There is a car going at a speed. It slows down with a constant acceleration. How far did the car travel while braking..?
So simple! >.>
I finished the "test" at 9:35. The class actually goes to 11:30 normally... So I went to the Loeb building (where my next class is, at 1.) and watched anime and blogged...
Lol... my calc teacher does this funny thing when we are semi-confused / not thinking for ourselves. He will write "?!...!" beside the question and tell us to think for ourselves. he writes out every single word of the lesson in fancy cursive on the board. Most teachers use a projector or even short forms of words, but not him. He also mispronounces some words... "ln", the natural logarithm is said "lawn". He says "lin". He says "constant" as "conistant". He's funny.
After school today I have to play tennis with my brother. I told him on Monday that we could play on Saturday and he said that was too far away, so I have to play him between school and YA, which means I'll have to have another shower in between. >.>
So, ya... Once physics' class time is up, I'll stop procrastinating and do some math homework until math class.
So. I'll talk to you later. (ttyl)

Waste of Time
Minna san, konnichiwa. (Hello everybody!)
Ok. I've procrastinated long enough.
I woke up at 9. Went to McD's to talk to Pastor DB, but I hadn't written my testimony or set any goals for the next year, so we didn't talk very long... So I went home, had breakfast, then JK (a different one with a very similar name, actually. my house mate) gave me a key for the house. I went to put it on my key chain.
I couldn't find it. I then thought I lost my keys and was all in a moderate panic. I was thinking I could say a prayer, do my testimony and goals, then look for my keys, or I could go to the tennis courts, which is really the only place that I could have left them other then in my bag, which I thought I had already checked.
I didn't really pray, then I went to the courts. They are pretty far away now actually...
That wasted like a good hour or so. I passed by MHS. It's a half day though, so I didn't see anyone...
I then found my keys in my other bag, my new one.
I had lunch and am now procrastinating by listening to Relient K songs on youtube...
Its been another hour or so. I wrote some stuff. It doesn't really seem like a testimony though... xP... It made me remember a bunch of stuff though, which is cool.

Yay! Alliteration! =D
>.> lame... I hate english...
Anyways, hey! Today was Saturday September 3rd. September... Ewww school in like half a week...
I had work, then worship practice, then tennis.
I moved out on Monday, right..? Then why have I been home three days in a row..? For free dinner..? No. For free meat..? No. Why..? Because my brother wants me to play tennis with him and my mom worries too much... >.>
So, ya. Worship practice today was amazing... xP Sometimes worship team is sooooo cool, but sometimes it is kinda annoying. Its usually really cool though. Playing bass and singing harmonies is a lot of fun.
This song is sooo cool. "Power Of Your Love" by Hillsong.
I like how we play it more then that version though. More bass and guitar. xP

OCBC Wedding
So, hey.
There are a number of things I could talk about, but I will limit the discussion to two main topics. The first topic is about first and last times.
So, I have had a very limited range of experiences, I think. I mean, I haven't ever been on a plane, been to Salem Storehouse, been to Anime Stop, driven(a real car), crossed the provincial border for the sole purpose of consuming alcoholic beverages legally, or had a full time job. However, this week with moving and stuff, there will be a lot of firsts and oddly, a couple lasts, at least for now.
A few firsts: moving(Aug 30), getting a bus pass (even though I only first bought bus tickets myself a couple months ago...), using a bus pass (Sept 1!), going to a wedding, broke a string on a tennis racket (yay!! my brother breaks them all the time because he 'hits too hard'), and going to university!
A couple lasts, at least for now: mowing the lawn, using bus tickets, having a window in my room (>.>) [it turns out I do have a window. so happy about that. xP] , and getting rides everywhere from my parents [I'm still getting a lot of rides, but it's a different attitude. More like "Can I drive you anywhere? Please."].
I guess some things are changing now... and I don't know what I'm feeling... it feels like I'm not feeling anything... but ya, the second topic is this: there was a wedding today.
For a couple and a half years now, I've gone to OCBC YF and other stuff. That is how long I've known KC and JK, or should I say Mr. and Mrs. J and KK. They were always the cool YA I looked up to (before I knew the younger YA, but I guess they are more like friends now. hehe) Today was the first wedding I've ever been to. It was warm. It was in a place in the middle of nowhere. It was emotional. It was fun / funny.
I was looking for a new youtube video to post. I typed "big bang" and this was the first song in the list:
Hehe. Wedding Dress by Tae Yang from Big Bang. The lyrics do not really relate to the situation of J and KK though... xP I mean, JK didn't just sneak into KC's life and sweep her away from some other guy or anything. He has spent a lot of quality time with her and they are always having fun. I hope their marriage lasts forever and that they can grow spiritually, encouraging each other every step of the way. I'm really glad I was invited and even working this morning isn't bad if you think of how cool the wedding was. If I had to miss it to work I would have missed something amazing.

Summer Summary
So, I have this friend who went to Japan and then China.
She wanted a full update off what I've done this summer, but apparently my blog is blocked in china..? so I had to email her a summary. It was also a response to her email so theres a couple other things too. xP
"blocked from china..?!? That's random.....
So, this summer, starting from the last week of June. So, I go to church and everything, so like I go to the Youth group and stuff, but now that I've graduated I get to go to the Young Adults (University Students) group. And during the summer I get to go to both. Also during the summer there are prayer meetings every week instead of only at the end of every month. Also in August I'm going on a missions trip to Brooklyn to help at a Vacation Bible School, so I've been reading more and doing more studies and memorizing more and praying more and stuff, so ya. That's been cool.
So, ya. Now that I've graduated and I havn't really seen anyone, I've been hanging out with the University guys. The last week of June he had something planned like every night, but I had work and softball and stuff, so I couldn't go, so I was going to tell my boss I didn't want to work night shifts anymore.
When I went to work to tell him, I found he was on vacation and the next two week's schedule was up. I had like 10/14 nights working... >.> I was kinda more upset then I should have been about that...
So I worked. A Lot. I even switched some shifts so that I could go to YA and YF, so I was working like 4-11 Fridays and 7-3 mornings on Saturday for two weeks.... xP
I told my boss I wanted to work a bit less. I was actually just working a lot because a guy quit, a guy was on vacations and we actually did need another guy to begin with...
During those two weeks, my friend decided he was moving out next year and I kinda wanted to too, so we began looking for a place.
I then realized how much it would cost and how I'd have to work and study and stuff. I should work as much as I can during the summer! Oops... I told my boss I wanted to work less... xP
I already have 2 months rent saved. and if I keep my scholarship I have enough saved for tuition already. I think its gonna be fun to live on my own (well, with 4 other guys, but still, not with my parents / brother) I'll get to shop for my own food, cook my own food, actually do my own chores and stuff.
So, ya we found this place on Woodroofe. It was cool, the other 3 guys were cool, but like, it's twice as far from Carleton as my house already is, and we'd have to take 2 buses to get to carleton...
The other place was this guy from church's house. It's behind the Farmboy on Merivale, so it's not that far and I can keep my jobs, if I want to. I kinda want a new job though... I've been there 2 years and I only make 15 cents more then minimum... And my other job is barely a job... While I'm at the courts I've just been reading. It's like 3 hours each week and there's almost nothing to do.
Ya. Today, just because I was thinking about them, I spent most of my day making cabbage rolls. lol... I had to go buy stuff, I had to cook it. In fact, it's still cooking. xP Half an hour left... I got the recipe from here: http://www.soscuisine.com/en/recipes/view/cabbage-rolls?sos_l=en&gpr_id=9432 and only changed it minimally because I had extra beef. I got like 784 grams or something. When I put it in to bake it looked tasty. Hehe. I burned some of it... I think the garlic got a little burned, and some of the beef got burned to the bottom of the pot, but I just didn't use the burned bit.
Ya... I don't really know how to cook, but I want to, so this was fun. xP It smells good. I'm actually in the kitchen as I'm typing this. I brought my laptop with the website up into the kitchen... xP Tomato juice is dripping out of the baking pan though, so that its going to burn in the oven... >.> I put too much in I guess.....
So, ya... I think I might get my G1 soon. xP maybe... I'm trying to make my friend get his at the same time, but he keeps procrastinating and stuff... His older sister (20*) doesn't have her G1 either and neither does my brother (16) so we kinda want to get them before our siblings do.
You should watch Pale Cocoon, Shinigami no Ballad, Howl's Moving Castle and Eve no Jikan. xP (OVA, 6 episodes, movie and 6 half-length episodes respectively)

Ya. Now... the cabbage rolls were good and I'll upload photos... Hehe. But I kinda sprained my ankle playing tennis, I think, and so I'm going to sleep now....
Today's bible study was cool.
"Hey AL. I don't like spraining ankles / wrists... It happens far too often. I don't have a girlfriend, but RL says Eclipse was a baaaad movie. xP"
She wanted a full update off what I've done this summer, but apparently my blog is blocked in china..? so I had to email her a summary. It was also a response to her email so theres a couple other things too. xP
"blocked from china..?!? That's random.....
So, this summer, starting from the last week of June. So, I go to church and everything, so like I go to the Youth group and stuff, but now that I've graduated I get to go to the Young Adults (University Students) group. And during the summer I get to go to both. Also during the summer there are prayer meetings every week instead of only at the end of every month. Also in August I'm going on a missions trip to Brooklyn to help at a Vacation Bible School, so I've been reading more and doing more studies and memorizing more and praying more and stuff, so ya. That's been cool.
So, ya. Now that I've graduated and I havn't really seen anyone, I've been hanging out with the University guys. The last week of June he had something planned like every night, but I had work and softball and stuff, so I couldn't go, so I was going to tell my boss I didn't want to work night shifts anymore.
When I went to work to tell him, I found he was on vacation and the next two week's schedule was up. I had like 10/14 nights working... >.> I was kinda more upset then I should have been about that...
So I worked. A Lot. I even switched some shifts so that I could go to YA and YF, so I was working like 4-11 Fridays and 7-3 mornings on Saturday for two weeks.... xP
I told my boss I wanted to work a bit less. I was actually just working a lot because a guy quit, a guy was on vacations and we actually did need another guy to begin with...
During those two weeks, my friend decided he was moving out next year and I kinda wanted to too, so we began looking for a place.
I then realized how much it would cost and how I'd have to work and study and stuff. I should work as much as I can during the summer! Oops... I told my boss I wanted to work less... xP
I already have 2 months rent saved. and if I keep my scholarship I have enough saved for tuition already. I think its gonna be fun to live on my own (well, with 4 other guys, but still, not with my parents / brother) I'll get to shop for my own food, cook my own food, actually do my own chores and stuff.
So, ya we found this place on Woodroofe. It was cool, the other 3 guys were cool, but like, it's twice as far from Carleton as my house already is, and we'd have to take 2 buses to get to carleton...
The other place was this guy from church's house. It's behind the Farmboy on Merivale, so it's not that far and I can keep my jobs, if I want to. I kinda want a new job though... I've been there 2 years and I only make 15 cents more then minimum... And my other job is barely a job... While I'm at the courts I've just been reading. It's like 3 hours each week and there's almost nothing to do.

Nine. One. One.
So, ya.
Today started off with work. I got a lot done, so the last two hours because both me and the other guy were bored, I went to work in Bakery. xP It's fun doing something different every once in a while.
I proceeded to do not much, including mowing the lawn and PvZ and Naruto and starting a bible study.
I then went to Tennis work. Not busy until the NCTA matches, but even then just full. I read another 40 pages or so. "He [the Christian] does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us." That line was powerful when I read it.
lol. When was the first time you called 911..? Mine was today. I thought it would be way more stressful and that piles of siren-bearing vehicles would rush over in a panic. No. Not really. The person I was speaking to was very calm and I don't think any vehicle showed up, at least for the 1.5 hours after I called that I was still there. KK (who is a hilarious person to play tennis with, or even just watch play tennis) told me to call 911 because of some weed smoking teenagers on a nearby park bench.
Ya. That was odd.
Ya. I have a lot of pictures to upload to facebook, so it may take a while....... I have like another 1300 left........
Ttyl. I guess.

"Hey AL. It's nearly August. *gasp* I still don't have a girlfriend."

Repetition.
I don't really like getting into a regular schedule. I find regular schedules way too boring. xP Spontaneity makes me happy. The only problem with spontaneity is that some things don't get done spontaneously... xP
I really enjoy taking trips. It causes the daily schedule to be put on hold for a week or so and when I get back I have to do some catch up, but it isn't a regular schedule again until I've caught up.
Anyways, the point is that my life is too repetative right now... work is basically a bunch of small repetative things and to top it off, I've been there for two years. I got a raise last week though... =D ... to 15 cents above minimum... >.>
Ya...
Today I woke up, eventually, went to work, went home, went to work (I was going to go straight from work, but it rained for a couple minutes, so I waited half an hour), dried the courts, played with my brother and then I've been on my laptop for a while.
Recently I've been watching "Shinigami no Ballad" as my extra anime. There are only 6 episodes, but it's a really cool show. It's about this shinigami who is kinda nosy and helps people with their lives.
At work I heard this song on the radio while I was preparing the lettuces (72 heads of iceburg... >.> so boring....).
Casting Crowns is a really cool band. If I ever end up going to Salem Storehouse (I've never gone, but AL has told me I should go...) then I'm gonna buy their CD.
So, ya... Ooooooh. So at the tennis courts people usually get there by bike. There wasn't any bike rack or anything before so people would have to bring them on to the courts, which is not allowed, or lock them to the fences, but there isn't that much room. A couple of days ago there appeared two new bike racks. I didn't think anyone had named them, so I took the initiative. xP
The one on the *looks at hands* left is the S.S. St. Laurier, and the one on the right is the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway. There is nothing wrong with those names, is there..? What would you have named them..? My brother thought they were ridiculous names. "You can't just make up a saint..!" I never said I did... That's just his name.
So, ya...

A Nightmare
So... When was the last time you had a nightmare..?
If you asked me that yesterday I'd have to say something along the lines of "*shrug* idk..?"
In other words, I had a very vivid scary frightening nightmare last night... or actually, this morning, after I had already woke up... But then I went to sleep again... I woke up because, in my dream, my dad was like screeching at me... I should probably explain a little. I don't remember too much of the beggining, but the ending was very vivid...
My teeth felt loose. I tend to have this fear of my teeth falling out apparently... so ya, a little later, like my whole top jaw's teeth were pulled out because I touched them again... like they fell out as one piece and then separated into teeth. There was no blood or anything, but it was so scary. I was like feeling my teeth to see if they were actually gone. Like I could actually feel that they weren't there... I don't think I've ever actually felt something while dreaming........... Then I was freaking out, like, omg I need to talk to a dentist and an orthodontist or something and get new teeth because this is so scary.... Then like my dad walked in and like I couldn't talk. and then I couldn't understand what he was saying. Then I fell to the floor... like omg.... this is worse then death.....
pop. I'm awake. *reaches for teeth* Oh, thank god that was a dream......... wait what time is it..... clock reads "7:05", ie actually 6:55. I have to be at work for 7...
To top it off, I couldn't really breathe... like only shallow breaths.There's this like pain in my chaest when I breathe deeply... pneumonia...? I thought my apendix was exploding for like half an hour... but told myself to stop thinking about it. IT IS NOT MY APENDIX! I told myself. I feel that if I think I have anything I'll actually get it... so I always tell myself its actually nothing, deal with it, and then just move on, in pain / sickness.
So, ya... apparently I threw out my knife yesterday, by accident. So I needed another one. I was asking if there was an extra around and my boss walks in. He said there weren't any extra right now, so he lent me his............... I think I threw it out... >.< I havn't told him yet...... >.<
Tennis, PvZ, anime, bible study....

Good Blood Pressure
So, today was kinda boring...
I woke up late, cleaned, watched anime, played tennis, went to a prayer meeting among a few other things. My brother has a blister on a blister from playing tennis, so... xP kinda painful.....
Anyways, today, I'm not exactly sure how, me and my brother remembered this online series called "Making Fiends." It's rather funny. I think originally ND told me about it in like grade 6 (back when we were friends... >.>) when there were actually new episodes. Since then apparently it's been on Nickelodeon and there's a number of actual TV episodes which are more in depth and clearly had a higher budget, but the originals were way cooler... no random solo from Mr. Milk...
So, ya.
I recently finished watching a show that a friend had told me to watch about a year ago or something. I only started watching it because I didn't have anything else to watch. You see, when I'm bored I'll just go to animecrazy.net and watch a show, but if none of the shows I'm currently watching have a new episode I will watch an episode from another anime. I usually have one other anime that has been done for a while that I watch when there's nothing else to watch and I didn't have anything to watch, so I started watching the show he suggested. It was kinda depressing and gory, but actually a pretty cool anime...
Anyways, now I'm watching this show called "Ouran Highschool Host Club" because I've heard a number of people talk about it before and I kinda wanted to know what they were talking about. xP It's kinda funny. xP It's often a bit awkward... The show is about this poor girl who goes to this fancy rich school and stumbles upon the host club. They mistake her to be a guy and make her join the club because she broke an expensive vase and couldn't pay for it. The host club basically is a group of guys that get money from girls that will pay to talk to them / stare at them... Ummm.... so, now that they all know that she's actually a girl they have to cover up that fact so that she can stay in the club... Also the guys in the club kinda like her... Awkward...
So, ya...
Today I asked Pastor DB for another bible study book. There are 24 studies in it, so I'll have something to do now. I really want to be prepared for when we go on the missions trip to brooklyn in august. I kinda wanted to get a more begginer bible study book because it would probably be simpler and more useful, but this one will at least take up some of my spare time...
Anyways, I'm going to sleep so that I can wake up and have a fun Canada Day with the YA. xP

Bug Catcher's are Always the Weakest Pokemon Trainers... >.>
So. Hey.
I did not get to bed until like 1:30 yesterday... >.> but there is a good reason! I was talking through YC to a recent graduate of biochem at Carleton (which is what I'm doing) about stuff. I havn't thought about it today though...
I woke up at 10... or was it 11..? I watched anime (Bleach ftw!!), played tennis, had lunch..? then I went to work.
Work was boring, but I found a couple of caterpillers and a moth. I really like bugs... xP I always catch them expecting to keep them as pets. The caterpillers were really boring... so was the moth. They did almost nothing the whole like 4 hours I had them... They barely moved... I guess bugs are cold-blooded, eh? It's kinda cold in the back room........ Anyways, since they did nothing I decided to just let them go. I carried them outside and let them go...
I probably spent far too much time playing with those bugs while I was at work... xP
So, ya...
Since I'm planning to move out this year there are a few things I've been thinking about:
1. If I move out I have to pay rent.
2. If I have to pay rent, I have to work.
3. I have a job...
4. My timetable is kinda full... like 8-5 everyday doesn't really let me work 6:30-12, 10-4, or 3-11 shifts... (produce shifts)
4. If I stayed at my current work place I'd have to work both Saturday and Sunday every week............ (no thank you.)
5. I have to get a new job...
So... I'm going to have to get on that... I'll have to make a new resume, get some references and then go out and deliver them... Which I might do with RL if he still hasn't... >.>

Ticking Clocks
So. Today was another wasted 24 hours, or at least I wasted 20 or so...
I didn't wake up until around 10. I read a chapter and a bit of Luke as well as Phillipians, but I guess I was kinda tired and didn't really absorb it all that much... I watched some anime and played around with my schedule for next year.
I drew a bunch of timetables with pencil crayons and pens. I have to take an "approved art credit", but I don't really know what it means by "approved art credit," so I think I'm gonna go to Carleton Wednesday and talk to someone... I tried fitting Japanese or even Mandarin into my schedule, but they wouldn't fit... I suppose I can always sign up for Saturday school again if I want to keep doing that, but it's kinda annoying to have to go Saturday mornings... Especially if I have homeowrk... I'd also have to take a placement test to determine which class I should take becuase I know more then absolutely nothing about Japanese... I played around with it for at least an hour or two then I was told to eat lunch before cleaning...
I havn't told my parents that I plan on moving out next year. I don't think I really realize what's going to happen because it's kinda a big thing and my parents, or at least my mom, want me to stay as long as possible, but I kinda want to live on my own or with some church buddies to just change it up I guess. I've never moved. I've lived in this house my whole life. Even if it's just down the road, moving out would be cool. Sure it would cost a bit and with my schedule I might not get to work as much, just trying it out for a bit would be cool. I could always move back if I need to.
So, I snuck out tonight and went to work to ask the slacker to switch shifts with me Friday and Saturday. He had plans with his friends Friday night, but that actually made him want to switch Saturday shifts. So, now I'm working 4-11 Friday and 8-4 Saturday... xP... but at least I don't have to find a replacement for worship team and I get to go to YF. The useless guy seems to have booked off Friday, so I may have to work that night... So much for YA this week. I hope we do something cool for Canada Day.
xP. I went to play tennis with my brother today and the other court steward wasn't there. I guess I was supposed to be working..? I showed up on time to work and left around the time I was supposed to, so I guess that counts..? I didn't have my key though, so I couldn't go into the lodge and sign off the hours. I may do that later this week.
I'm gonna try to even out my sleep schedule... Like go to sleep around 11:30-12 not 1ish and wake up 8ish not 10-11.
So, I've been playing with my timetable again. It seems I have 5 choices for which "Art" course I take. I think. Psychology, Philosophy, some English course, Film Studies, or Linguistics. If those are "Arts" then I'll get to decide...
So, ya...

"Hey AL, registering is hard and work is annoyingly time consuming... no time to look for girlfriends even..."
I didn't wake up until around 10. I read a chapter and a bit of Luke as well as Phillipians, but I guess I was kinda tired and didn't really absorb it all that much... I watched some anime and played around with my schedule for next year.
I drew a bunch of timetables with pencil crayons and pens. I have to take an "approved art credit", but I don't really know what it means by "approved art credit," so I think I'm gonna go to Carleton Wednesday and talk to someone... I tried fitting Japanese or even Mandarin into my schedule, but they wouldn't fit... I suppose I can always sign up for Saturday school again if I want to keep doing that, but it's kinda annoying to have to go Saturday mornings... Especially if I have homeowrk... I'd also have to take a placement test to determine which class I should take becuase I know more then absolutely nothing about Japanese... I played around with it for at least an hour or two then I was told to eat lunch before cleaning...
I havn't told my parents that I plan on moving out next year. I don't think I really realize what's going to happen because it's kinda a big thing and my parents, or at least my mom, want me to stay as long as possible, but I kinda want to live on my own or with some church buddies to just change it up I guess. I've never moved. I've lived in this house my whole life. Even if it's just down the road, moving out would be cool. Sure it would cost a bit and with my schedule I might not get to work as much, just trying it out for a bit would be cool. I could always move back if I need to.
So, I snuck out tonight and went to work to ask the slacker to switch shifts with me Friday and Saturday. He had plans with his friends Friday night, but that actually made him want to switch Saturday shifts. So, now I'm working 4-11 Friday and 8-4 Saturday... xP... but at least I don't have to find a replacement for worship team and I get to go to YF.

So, ya...
Yesterday was really weird.
Let me start by saying when I'm hyper, I'm hyper. People often ask me if I'm drunk or high when I'm hyper. This is mostly because when I'm hyper Idon't use as much logic or thinking. Like, I'll make really impulsive decisions and stuff. I also want to run when I'm hyper or do some physical activity.
Tuesday after the softball game I was really hyper. Actually I became hyper in the last inning and was annoyed that I wouldn't get to bat again... Our team had like 13 people there and it was the bottom of the last inning. We were down by like 6 runs, so either we get 7 runs or we get 3 outs. Maximum of like 10 batters before either of those comes true. I was like the last one to bat the inning before, so ya...
After the game we went home and I was still hyper, it was still sunny and still warm. I wanted to play tennis. My brother was asleep... >.> I kinda left the house without telling anyone and went to the courts. There were no extra people there so I went into the lodge and got the members list. I called like 4 other teenaged guys I knew. None of them were at home. So that was no help. I ended up just hitting against the wall.
The wall isn't all that tall and I often lob the ball by accident... So I had to go fetch balls every once in a while. Because I was hyper I sprinted to get the balls. There's a feild behind the wall and it was like 9 pm, so it was getting dewy, so I kinda slipped while stopping. Normal people would just get up. I lay down. xP but I couldn't see the stars... it was still too bright.
The whole time I was at the wall I was texting my brother's girlfriend about playing tennis. She had never played. Me being hyper and really wanting to play, I asked her if she wanted to play tommorow (yesterday) and she agreed. xP...
So, yesterday, I went to school to study and hunt down some people to sign my yearbook. It is exam week by the way. So, I didn't get there until 10 or so. It was cloudy. I studied Physics for like 4 hours then went to the courts.
Me and CL 'played' for a bit. xP It was a learning experience. I had kinda felt bad all day because I was going to play tennis with / teach tennis to my brother's girlfriend without telling him and I was borrowing his racket without telling him because she didn't have one. We only 'played' for like half an hour though. It started pouring...
So, CL kinda lives kinda far away, so she had to take the bus home. We went to the bus stop nearby (one with a bus shelter thing) and waited 17 minutes for the bus. The school right beside the bus stop had just finished I guess and like 4 or 5 middle school kids were also there.
xP. Have you ever heard of people texting each other while in the same room..? Ya..? Have you ever done it yourself..? No..? Well I have now. A couple of the kids were speaking french. I commented on that, but by text. I mean you don't talk about people while they are standing right beside you, right? It was kinda funny. We were like having two conversations at once. *text to AL*
Anyways, the bus came. She got on. I walked home. I didn't have work again, because it was raining... xP
I had to study for my Bio exam that was today, but I had a headache and went to sleep before I was done studying...

"Hey AL. I wish I could lie in a field and look up at a starry sky every night. It really calms you down and gives you time to think about things... Like girlfriends... Which I don't have yet btw..."
So, ya. Today was my calc exam and I also had a softball game. The exam was pretty good. I didn't read one question properly, apparently, but it was pretty good otherwise. I think..? Mr. JP marked my summative and I got 100%! Yay! That should help my mark a bit.
In softball our team had a pretty amazing game. We used to lose like 20-0, but today we held them down to 6-1 and we always got people onto the bases, just not home. We are going to have a practice on Saturday to get ready for the playoffs. The only point was RT getting a homerun. XP...
So. Ya...

"So, AL. I start a lot of the paragraphs on my blog with so. This is now one of them, however, I still don't have a girlfriend."
Today, I spent a long time in the darkroom. And if I wasn't there for a minute or two, I was still counting to myself until I got back. One of the prints took five minutes. I went to my locker to get lunch in that time...
So, I'm done printing pictures for my project. Now I just need to analyze them. I will explain my project later. Everyone I've explained it to has thought it was cool. This is probably because it is quite simple to understand, whereas some projects are not... What is a zenith..?
So, ya. I got to see "The Lizard of Oz" today. It is definately written by TS and GSf. JC has fake abs drawn on. lol.
Oh, ya... I got a darth vader mask today... It's kinda hot. Also, it kinda is hard to project while wearing a mask...
So, today I had work at the tennis courts scheduled. It was cloudy and it appeared to have rained a little while ago when I got there at 4:50. Also, I kinda forgot the code for the alarm... Alarms are loud.....
Ya, I dried off two courts then it started pouring. I had only been there for an hour. I have now worked two and a half hours at the courts this year.
Lucky me.
I ended up watching shows on Family or YTV with my brother and having one duel with Duelmasters cards. Procrastinating is hard to avoid sometimes.
I will try to get something done now. Try.

I like this anime. The opening is annoying, but catchy and the ending is pretty cool. Mio plays bass. Her songs are way cooler then Yui's. XP
