death to Garfield

he hates this day, but to me it isnt so bad.


i went to school for the first time in a week today, because i was in Calgary last week. thankfully i was able to get my homework over email while i was there, so i am not as far behind as i could be. a week isnt really all that much to me, in terms of missing school and work.

anyway, i got up early to go to dryland training this morning, heading to the nearby field for sprint and agility training. its not so bad now; week before last we had to do minute long hill-sprints up a hill that could be classified as 'steep' with degrees to spare. this is all for ski racing, my sport of choice and passion. we finished at 8, and i had enough time to go home on my bike for a shower and breakfast. i dont have a class in the first block on monday, wednesday and friday, so i was in the clear for timing concerns.

when i got to school i spent my block reading Platinum Grit (see Links), which i probably shouldnt have done, and doing literary research for my own writing project. phys11 after that was... well, pretty boring, but thats better than nervewracking any day.
Writing 12 and History of Film 12 were after that, in the same block [(wah?!) (online courses... yeah)] and then normal history after that. we're learning about Ghandi, who is a prett sweet dude, actually. he certainly knew what he wanted. i wonder, as he was a resident of the British Empire for a time, was he knighted?

oh well. we had a grad meeting during lunch today, which was cool, because most of the class showed up to talk to each other industriously and ignore the people leading the meeting. i think we should just elect a board or something to plan prom and grad. goddam, i seriously dont care what color the balloons are. just let me bring a date and two guests, and we're cool.

i bought a brie-and-tomato sandwhich from the deli across the street for lunch. it was damn good, which is bad for me, in a way. i want to make my own at home, but brie is too goddam expensive to buy for sandwhiches every day. my life is way too hard as it is, and now there is no brie for me. *sigh*

i played World of Warcraft for almost a year, until about when i got out of school this summer. and you know what? i'm done with it. so i quit today, cancelling my account and everything. it felt kind of libertating, in a way. no longer having to go back to the endless LFG lines and tiresome grind to get that next level and spell... and i was only two away from the level cap... too bad! no more of my money for you, Blizzard! i hope your live-action Warcraft movie gets big bucks, because there is no more from me!

and now i will write about the apartheid in south africa. bye
