So, tonight’s blog is about how there really is no blog. I have a headache the size of the mob of angry vacationers at Heathrow airport and Junior has no internet connection. He can’t even read the anti-blog! Poor dear. Scottie’s connection is out too. He needed a recipe to bake cookies that was online, but he couldn’t get it.

Nothing happened today, thank goodness. Perfect writing material for the anti-blog! I did really bad on my Chem test (I KNEW it before I got my mark) so I stayed in. Mr. Rumbolt said that he was really surprised (the mark will not be told). He later figured out that I’m better at numbers than concepts. But, oh my! What a dear he is. He let me stay after school to get some help. Because he had a phone call to make or something, we couldn’t get started right away. At about 3:35 or so, he started helping me. I was there until just about 5 o’clock. Junior was done wrestling and he was giving me a ride home, so he came to the door around 5 and said that he was ready when I was. Mr. Rumbolt is incredible. He’s such a good teacher one-on-one. I loved it! I think I actually understand it a little bit more now. He told me to read it all over tonight and if I ever have any questions, ask him.

Argh, Christmas gives me a headache. But enough of the anti-blog for tonight! I need to sleep away my troubles. Good night!

PS. The Snowball is tomorrow night. It’s Junior’s blog tomorrow, so I expect he’ll give a full report on how it went. I’m going to Junior’s to get ready. Man, I love having so many guy friends!

 
Today, Junior had wrestling and I had... Well, nothing. I didn’t need to tutor (last minute cancellation), so I just stayed in anyway. It turns out that Ryan was staying in (again) to finish off his research paper. So! I stayed with him. Junior offered to bring me around when he was done wrestling/whenever I was supposed to be done tutoring. He’s some nice. :)



Anywho, at about twenty after four, Junior came into the library and got me, and I went out to the truck. Ryan passed in his research paper, so he came out to the parking lot with me. Junior had given me his keys so that I could start the truck. I. Love. His. Truck. Trucks are my weakness. It’s an old Chevy. I LOVE Chevrolet, haha. Junior had to go to his locker to get something (was it his locker?). That’s why I got the keys. So, he came out, hopped in the truck, and we drove off. Because I spilled the Rice Krispies on the floor yesterday morning (ugh. I dropped the container that they were in, the container opened, and the cereal went EVERYWHERE), I had to go to the store to buy a new box. Junior was kind enough to give me a ride there.

We went to the store and got what we needed - AKA, I got cereal, scented body wash (coconut = yummy), a toothbrush, and yogurt, while Junior got some deodorant (and something else.. That I can’t remember). After leaving there, we ran across the road to the optometrist because my new glasses were supposed to be in soon and they hadn’t called me about them yet. It was about 4:55 and they close at five, haha. Luckily for me, my glasses were in! :D

So, I payed for my glasses and then Junior brought me home. The drive was so weird! I had my glasses on, and I could finally see clearly again. I haven’t been able to see through my glasses properly for a couple of months now. It was a GREAT change. I’m so glad Junior brought me down today!

I was at Nan and Pop’s for supper. As usual, Nan’s cooking was impeccable. When I got there, Cody text me to hang out. I said that I couldn’t because I had to tutor. THEN, Lisa text me and told me that she didn’t need me tonight because she was/is sick (get well soon, hun!). THEN, I text Cody and said that I could possibly hang out. THEN, Ryan text me and told me that he couldn’t do the project tomorrow because he had plans with Meghan. SO! I had to tell Cody that I couldn’t hang out tonight, but could maybe hang out this weekend. Maybe. Ryan and Meghan’s 17 month anniversary is tomorrow. Holy cow! They’re such a beautiful couple. It warms my heart to see them together. :)

Anywho, Ryan picked up Britt and I from Nan and Pop’s around 6:30 and dropped Britt off at Mom’s. We proceeded on to his house, where he finally ate supper and we tried to work on our project. We had to leave shortly after seven to pick up his brother at hockey. When we got back, we worked on our project and played a game of chess - simultaneously. It was great. Naturally, I lost. I’m awful at chess.

Ryan dropped me off at Mom’s (what a sweetheart. The Pathfinder is with Mom, and I didn’t take Dad’s truck, and I didn’t want to get Nan to pick me up. He offered to bring me home), and I came inside to chill with Nan and Britt. We watched Jeopardy, then Britt went to bed. Then, Nan and I watched some of the Canadian Tenors Christmas thing on CBC. They have gorgeous voices! Look them up on YouTube or something, because their talent must be shared. NOW, I’m sitting down, writing this.

I should go to bed though.. I have a Pre-cal test tomorrow, a Math test the next day, a Chem test on Friday, the A Separate Peace assignment due Friday, and a Chem lab due on Tuesday (of next week). At least I have our French class Christmas party to look forward to tomorrow afternoon! We’re missing Chem because of it. It’s going on from 12:14 or so to 3:16. All afternoon! Woot! Ms. Shortt is ordering pizza for us (and won’t let us pay. She says it’s our gift from her), and someone is bringing in a Wii or PS3, so we’ll be set.

And now I’m done. Good night!

PS. Here’s a picture of me with my new glasses. I like them. :D

My new glasses! Please be nice...
 
Waldon here, and today has finally lived up to my expectations.

Today was the second meeting, I believe, of the wrestling team. It was the first opportunity I had to go to a meeting. In all due regard, it was FUN. I had three partners over the course of the evening. Pat, Brandon and Dusty. Pat is almost 300 pounds, Brandon 260, and Dusty is 180. I'm 215 pounds. So you can tell I had an interesting time adjusting.

My knee is almost healed, or as healed as it's going to get, and it definitely wouldn't have worked out if it still hurt me like it did a week ago.

I actually don't know the name of the man that is teaching us, I just called him "Coach". He did something that I've never before had happen. He overpowered me without even TRYING. We were doing a move called "The Gut Wrencher", and yes- it IS just as unpleasant as it sounds, where you are next to a person on the floor with your arms pinning their arm in and squeezing them as hard as you can around the lowest rib (the floating rib) and rolling with them. Basically a horizontal Bear Hug making their elbow crush their own ribs.

After a minute or so of me intensive squeezing, Coach looked at me and said; "Is that all?"

My arms are strong enough to break ribs. I've taken a wire mesh cage and bent it, I've had separate people on my two arms and used them as weights. My arm's aren't weak. This guy is just insane.

Also, he has a completely rockin' stache. I think it could dominate a small nation with just it's awesome.

Besides this, I didn't really do much today. I got to spend lunch today with Bre again. :) I love going to the math help centre with her. Wrestling really dominated the whole "event" factor. So, I guess I'll head on out from here. Besides, I already lost a good portion of this post from a bad connection. I hate bad connections. They make me angry.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

WALDON SMASH!
