for terrible people.

This is bad and you should feel bad.

---

In fact, it's terrible.

---

What a waste.

Disregard it.

---

In other news, my math average dropped six percent with one test. I was almost impressed.

My French average is also sad. It is even sadder than my math average because it is a c-c-c-combo breaker.

However, what I truly regret to inform you is:
I have failed Lunch. :c

Someone tutor me? It's really hard, I don't get it at all...

---

Really, there's nothing to talk about. I'm posting because I want to get that other thing off the top of my blog.

ARCT is hard. Sonata Pathetique is going to give me carpal tunnel syndrome. Also, the books are ridiculously expensive and I have to buy everything separately.

Nylons are hard to put on and easy to make holes in.

Time is easy to lose but hard to find, much like...

... the gummy bear vitamins that were dropped and ran away. :c I hope they find a better life... under the table... or wherever they are now.

Godspeed, gummy bears. I wish you all the best.

I was going to say some things, but instead, have some funny stories.

My mother is now experiencing the feeling of 'my mom friended me on Facebook, WHAT DO.'

Yes, my grandmother just got Facebook.

She is interested in "whatever she can get."

---

Someone carded my dad at some store (again). He (the clerk) was genuinely confused. I don't understand how; my dad had shaved that day, but, seriously, the guy's balding and has grey hair. He's also forty-three. It is not hard to tell.

---

In the same vein, a window installation guy mistook my dad for my brother. A classmate has also mistaken my grandmother for my mom. (No, not the one that has Facebook. That one looks appropriately grandmother-like.)

Does anyone know any good place to get steady volunteer hours? Like... a volunteer 'job'.

---

Anyone like MMORPGs? COME PLAY MABINOGI WITH MEEEEEE IT IS AN AWESOME GAME. 8D If you want I will be lame and post screenshots.

Rachel's cruise ship sounded fun. :o I want to go on a cruiseeeee.

Each letter represents a different digit. Same letter equals same digit. If anyone can solve one before I do, I'll buy them a free bubble tea on our epic public transit adventure!

No, I'm not covertly trying to get anyone to do my SMS homework for me because I'm too lazy/stupid to do it myself. What are you talking about?

School tomorrow. D: SUMMER WHERE DID YOU GO.

Also I passed my piano exam with an 82. I now feel guilty, as this was the score I achieved after two years, while other people, after practicing for only a year, were able to achieve high nineties.

re: uhm.

I had a post written, but subsequently decided self-mockery would be more amusing.

Thus, here is the condensed version of the post you do not see:

"I am not deep because I am boring lol."

I should have just practiced piano instead; exam's the day after tomorrow.

A few things.

So I went to A Taste of the Danforth the other day.

It was salty.

Greek food is very salty. Flaming cheese is amusing but expensive. The lamb souvlaki did not taste like lamb, but the potato was delicious.

Crowds are fun, though, when I can see things other than people's backs.

---

Formula pattern scales must die.

Arpeggios must die.

Cadences must die.

Squeaky pedals and off-tune pianos must die.

Mostly the formula pattern scales, though.

---

On the bright side, my Shuckle will be more useful with the release of Gen 5! Yayyyy.

Breeding Pikachu is taking a long time. Stupid Natures. Stupid IV system.

---

Sheet music is expensive.

Maybe I'll start playing an MMORPG again after piano exam...? Or I'll continue with Pokémon... it's pretty boring making battle teams without anyone to actually battle, though.

Everyday life, I guess.

I wonder what the world would be like if it was squishier, and everything was softer and moldable and, well. You could squish it.

I guess I'd like it because it would give me at least an illusion of control.

Oh, and our bones would be weaker, but that's that.

---

I will probably pass my piano exam this time around! I passed the mock exam with 66.5%, which is... terrible, actually.

Well, you can't have everything.

As a result of this, I am now able to violate copyright law and listen to classical music illegally.

Yay, illegal classical music. Next thing you know they're going to send the classical music mafia after me.

They'd be snazzy-looking, too, in their pristine black suits and little bow ties! And they'd be known for their outrageous level of violins. And for blowing their instruments really skillfully...

. . .

... that tangent is stopping here.

---

I want a Shuckle. It will know Rest, Substitute, Toxic, and Stealth Rock. It will be perfectly EV trained in HP and have the remainder of its EVs split between Defense and Special Defense.

It will wall everything, except for poisons and burns.

IV breeding is way too troublesome, unless I find some way to figure it out. For one thing, there isn't even a reliable method to figure them out...

---

I'm still holding out for a squishier world here.

A change would be nice.

I am either content or bored.

Because, really, what's the difference (if you think about it enough)?

I should probably get a hobby. Any suggestions? (Disclaimer: I have no talent at photography, sadly. Believe me, I've tried.)

Writing is embarrassing. It's kind of like letting other people peek at your internal organs, except sometimes you lie about it and dye them purple or something to make them more exciting beforehand.

I've passed Careers and also Civics, probably, but am rather more doubtful about my upcoming piano exam.

I need to get out more. Somebody take me somewhere. ._.;

Oh, and I watched Despicable Me yesterday! It was good, although I admit I liked the beginning the best. The minions were pretty cute, but 3D kind of makes my eyes hurt.

My everyday life is kind of boring, isn't it? I should host a party and upload some pictures, or something. I heard that's all the rage nowadays.

---

So I met a guy whom I will call Smile online yesterday. He is apparently from England, apparently seventeen and kind of cute, and apparently a stoner. He also has some knowledge of Pokemon and apparently played the original Gold.

Unfortunately, he calls himself "depressive" and seems as easily impressed as everybody else. On the plus side, he gave me ten brownie points and told me about his textured wallpaper and pet traffic cone.

The traffic cone was kind of odd.

Since he admitted to having sociopathic tendencies and shows some common slip-ups in his presentation of himself online, he's most likely a normal, sane person who just happens to have a pet traffic cone and writes on his wallpaper in permanent marker.

Otherwise, he's a really fucking smart sociopath.

I love the Internet.

Hello.

I deleted the old blog because I no longer like it.

I started a new blog due to a surplus of inexistant spare time.

It is summer vacation.

I think I am failing Careers.

I must play the piano.

For now, that will be all.
