May 7th, 2014: Brother's Birthday

May 7th, 2014 is officially my little brother 16th birthday. My family usually celebrates our birthdays on Thursday since everyone is home, so we didn't really do much today. I cruelly sang Happy Birthday to him at 12AM since I can't really sing when it has a reason. I wish I was at home more though today, I went out for more than 6hrs D= While its true my brother was at school, I just wish I was home when he got off! ^_^
I did end up trying to make something new today though. Since I have never tried crepes before and it was expensive but easy to make, I decided to give it a try and made them for my brother's birthday! It was interesting to make since they are very thin so it was very easy to burn them. The mix would dry up really quickly on the frying pan so I had to move quickly to make it into a thin flat circle. Out of the 6 I made, only 3 came out as a circle, one being more of a circle than the rest. They came out fine, It was good to eat. Wish I had fruits/whipped cream in the house though, it would have been more delicious that way, had to live with just Nutella in it.

I also made his a sign saying "Happy Birthday" made up of ducks that was after his favorite "Rubber Duck (sculpture)". Came up with the idea at 1AM and finished it by 2AM. It came out good, her was able to see the happy birthday under it so that s good.

That's all i have for today, wonder what I post about next time. Anime North 2014? Summer course? I don't know.!

Holiday Story 1

Back when the mountains were colder and when winter would arrive right on Christmas; there was a boy named Red. Just like he name he loved the colour red, his room, his clothes and even his eyes and hair were red. He had a burning passion for snowboarding ever since his family moved to the mountain side. He especially loved when winter rolled around, the snow would be just right for his family to go snowboarding. Everyday, he would run out of the house with his red snowboard, sometimes he would even miss breakfast just to go snowboarding! As he grew older, instead of riding the bus down the mountainside to go to school, he would snowboard his way down. That way he would be able to bring his snowboard to school and he would not have to be late since he always got to school earlier than the bus. Sometimes May, his friend who was also a snowboarder would tag along with him. One day, school was closed due to a blizzard that was passing by the area. Red was stuck at home because of the blizzard and had nothing to do. He wanted to be outside but he couldn't because he mom told him that he might be blown away. Just then, his family got a call from a local who asked if May was at their home. His mom answered no and May's father said that if they see her to please let them know. Red's mom asked Red if he knew were May was and Red said no. Red was worried about May because May always had difficulty keeping her balance. When the snow lightened up, Red got up and went out to search for May. He searched for hours and was searching along their daily route to school before he heard his name being shouted. He looked around and saw May popping out of what seemed to be an igloo except it was not an igloo but a big lump of snow. Red rushed over and ask where she had gone to in which she replied that she had left home early the previous day to practice her balance; the wind eventually strengthened and she lost her balance and twisted her ankle. She then mentioned how she then built an igloo and without a phone, she had to stay there all night. Luckily, all the children on the mountain side were told to keep a lighter with them just in case a situation like this were to happen. Eventually, Red and May laughed at the journey May had and then Red helped May back to her home by carrying her on his back. When May's ankle healed, Red started to help May get back on her board and helped her practice, that way she would be able to accompany him to school everyday from then on.

Friends (July 7th)

Yesterday, I attended an early birthday party of a friend. Actually, it didn't feel like a party, more like a hangout with cake, movie, canada-o-poly, and 7 friends. At first, it felt awkward to be around them again since school already ended 1 week ago and I haven't seen them since. As well as the fact that I had a slightly difficult week the week before. However, I'm better now thanks to two of my friends who helped me and tried cheering me up in their own different ways. ^_^However, I do hope that one of my friends who  I plan to meet up and talk to this week is feeling better ; - ; He was really down last week and I wasn't able to talk to him. However, since he told me the reason why, I can understand why he wanted to be alone last week.

Back to topic, it was at first weird/awkward being around them but as the "party" progress and we got into canada-o-poly, I felt more free? (if that the word that could describe it) around my friends. I wonder if its just because I myself feel a freed from the situation I was in, or because I can be myself around them since I wrote some of them letters... I don't know......

Side note:
FINALLY GOT TO WATCH THE AVENGERS! It was a good movie to watch! Really liked it! For me, the best part was probably when the Hulk was playing around with Locke. There was also a lot of food there too... Some of us wished our friend who eats a lot was there for once, but sadly she is on a trip in Mexico.... She will be back soon though!

Back on topic... again.
For some reason, it never really hit me that this party might be the last time I'll see some of my friends again. It never really occurred to me, I just felt like we would still meet up even after we graduated. One of those friends being a very good friend of mines who I have known since grade 5. She is going to a university in Quebec, so I won't be able to see her till she comes back to visit D=. I hope she passes me her address, I want to be able to send her a Christmas gift! Same goes to my other two friends going to Waterloo.

Gifts:
That day was a fun day, got the birthday girl a USB which I know she will use for sure at Sheridan, (because her USBs now are 4/8GBS). Don't know... when I think of gifts, I think of gifts which the receiver would find very good use for in the future. Whether its a USB, a pouch for phone/ipod/DS/headphones/change, keychains, charms, books anything! The thing about gifts like chocolate, flower, sketchbooks, perfume, pens, anything that can be used within a short period of time I find that yes they are good gifts, but once it used it you can't use it again. However, gifts that can be reused can last for a long time and I guess will be cherished more? I don't know my mind of thinking was weird. That still doesn't stop the dream of getting a 3DS THOUGH, MUST GET ONE BEFORE OCTOBER!!!!

P.S. Something, I tried to keep track of during that party was how many times I said the words "I" & "me". Just as a reference. 

Cleaning Day 1

First day at cleaning up and organizing the computer table, my side of bedroom & guest/storage room. Started with the computer table... There were TOO MANY THINGS on that table! Started throwing things on the floor to organize them. I decided to change the water pearls that I used to plant a mini plant. Thought that 1/8 of a small bag would probably fill 1/2 of a fish paste container. I just left it there so that the pearls could expand. When I came back to look at them, the container was all full.... There were too many now!

So after cleaning up the computer table I moved everything that wasn't suppose to be on that table to my room. I stumbled upon a lot of really old work while I was cleaning up. Some dated back to grade 9, it was nostalgic to find some past works as I could see how I progressed over a series of 4 years. I also found some past class photos as well, one from grade 3 & 5. I never didn't think that some of my classmates that I had this year would have been in my class back 9 years ago. Some changed a lot while some looked like they didn't change much. Otherwise, I only got to cleaning up the bookshelf in my room. Started moving all the art supplies from my bedroom to the guest/storage room (soon to be work room in October) for next year I suppose. Will continue clean up tomorrow!

I also somehow developed an allergy? or something to dust, sneezed a lot while I was cleaning.
