I can genuinely say that I'm enjoying school at this point. The days are going by quickly, I'm learning a lot, I get to spend time with my friends, and although I'm busy, I'm satisfied with where I am at this point in the year. Even though I'm going on the computer less and less, it doesn't feel like it's much of a difference.

Today I got invited to the Principal's List luncheon where the top students in the school are rewarded for their efforts. I'm really looking forward to going because they serve awesome food there, and I stole a whole bunch of cookies that lasted me a week last year. I was also invited to intend a problem-solving tournament that encourages kids to think in innovative ways in order to lead the world in the future. I don't know if I'm gonna go or not. I don't really want to give up my Saturday for something that's practically school - I'd rather play video games.

Thursday is gonna screw up my schedule. I have to present a slideshow to the student council and teachers after school, and it's supposedly going to take two or three hours. AAH, I don't have time for this shit. I want to talk to all my internet friends. If I do well in the presentation, I'll be able to win $5000 dollars for a charity, but I'll have to present my slideshow to the mayor and other people if I get into the finals, blargh.Good thing there are snackies as in incentive. On the day of the semi-finals, I have a whole bunch of tests to study for, so I'm hoping to knock off as much homework as I can today.

I think I'm gonna start working. It'll be on Saturdays, so I'll have to make up for the lost time by studying more on weekdays, I'll be at work on Saturday, and hopefully I'll be able to relax on Sundays. Somehow, I highly doubt that. I already made a contract with my school to tutor after school, and that will come into effect starting next year. I already committed myself to volunteering for a few local charities and businesses in return for extra credits. This I'm going to have to do in my free time, so I'll either do it on Sunday or after work. The pay is pretty good for my first job - $14 an hour - and I don't think this chance will come again for a long while. I just don't know if I'm up for it.

I wish we could unlock achievements in real life like we could in games. For example: Congratulations, you received an A on your report card for the first time! I'd work so much harder than I already am, and grind to godly levels. It'd make life a lot more fun, and it'd offer an incentive to people who want to do nothing but laze around on the couch all day.
5 basic facts about you
I'm a retart. The facts about myself I wrote last day actually weren't as basic as I thought, so I'll have to switch around the challenges.

1. I brush my teeth at least four times a day. They're still not white, fml.
2. I have really soft hair. I'm not even being conceited about this - I have people comment on my hair all the time and run their fingers through it and play with it. I don't really like it; I just hope that their hands are clean.
3. I try to be polite and courteous to everyone. There are certain people I don't like to associate myself with, but I'll do so in order to uphold my reputation - if I can.
4. If I very strongly dislike you, it's painfully obvious and you would have to be touched in the head to not realize it.
5. I'm very clingy and affectionate despite all my attempts to downplay it.
2: What is your stance on religion? Would you affiliate yourself with any? 
I don't have a problem with religion, though I support sciences. I believe that anything can be explained by science, but I won't say there isn't a higher power up there, either. People are entitled to have their opinions, and the same holds true for religion. As long as they're not forcing their views upon me, I am perfectly fine with it. The same goes for someone who supports science - I don't like it when Darwinists or whoever else, slam religious beliefs. There could be a god, there might not be, and I won't devote myself to a religion until I've witnessed a miracle of some sort with my own eyes. I like to come to my own conclusions using logical thinking, not accepting things the way they are simply because "the Bible says so."

I myself, am Buddhist. I follow the branch of Buddhism where there is no God, unlike my parents. I believe in self-fulfillment. My brain is wrapped completely around science, though, and I usually push religion to the back of my mind in favour of it. Don't get me wrong - I'd love to believe in something with all my heart, but I am not so blind that I will eat everything that is spoon fed to me by a man that died thousands upon thousands of years ago. Times change and so does the view of the human world. Science evolves - religion is stuck in the past.
Day 5 - Saddest Moment
When Dobby died. I cried while reading that scene, and I nearly started crying in the movie theatre.
If you were stranded on a deserted island, what five books would you take with you? Include one reason for each. 
1. The Survival Handbook by John Wiseman. This is essential to survival. If I was truly stranded, I wouldn't know how to make it out alive based on common sense alone.
2. 98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive by Cody Lundin. This is pretty self-explanatory; I need it to keep my ass alive.
3. The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey. This is one of my favourite novels and something that can stand alone. I don't want to bring a single book from a series and get frustrated because I didn't have the sequel with me.
4. Young Samurai by Chris Bradford. The same reason as The Monstrumologist.
5. Ranger's Apprentice by John Flanagan. The same reason as the above two.
 5. Favorite character from that game?
Pit because he's the first character I started out with and he's very versatile. He has a wide range of techniques that can be used in different combinations to gain the upper hand in any situation. If he could spike or meteor smash, he'd be placed a lot higher on the Tier List and would be a lot more fun to use. Either than that, I'm really happy with what his character has to offer.
Day Six: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever) 
I separate my real life from the internet, so I will do the same for this blog challenge. Yeah, it's a cheap way of getting around the number limit. This will be done in alphabetical order.

in real life 

1. dad
2. mom
3. Jennie
4. Kathleen
5. Shania

My parents are a given, so I'll elaborate here instead of in the list so I can lump the reasons together. I wouldn't be anything without my parents, and I'm eternally grateful for everything they have done for me. I honestly can't believe how they could even stand me - even I get angry at myself for being such a dumb bitch. I don't think I could ever repay them, but despite knowing this, there are times when I still make them upset. I can always count on them for everything, and it's painful to say that I can hardly do a thing for them. They hold me together, they break me apart, they pick up all the pieces and make me strong. Of course there will be times when I'm annoyed beyond belief at them, but I know how much they care for me. I know they would do anything in their power to make me happy despite their limited resources. I'm so lucky to have such loving parents.

My best friends are also a given, so I'll lump the reasons together here. I don't have to hide anything from them. I don't to look or act an certain way, I don't don't have to speak a certain way and I don't have to think a certain way. Around them, I can simply be myself, and they accept all of it. They make me laugh and smile, they help me when I'm in a rut, and they're so full of life that I can't help but feel happy around them. We always have a lot of things to talk about because we relate so well, but we don't mind sitting in a comfortable silence. I wish I could've listed all my other friends because I don't like to put a price on friendship, but these three were the first to pop into my head.

the internet

I don't really give a shit about anyone except for RCK on the internet, so my list is comprised solely of RCK, and Kim. She's an ex-family member though, so she counts. I think RCK + Kim already knows how much I love them, so I won't elaborate too much on them. I'm actually supposed to be doing homework, but I'm wasting time writing this blog.

1. Alex - The moment I met you, we clicked, I think. We got along right off the bat despite the fact that we hardly knew a thing about each other. You're a bit of a nut-case, but that doesn't change the fact that I love talking to you.You always had such a fresh and interesting way of saying things that brought a smile to my face. We don't talk as much as we used to, but when we did, you never failed to make me laugh. I think you're absolutely amazing and that it's ridiculous that you have a self-esteem problem, but we all have our reasons and I respect that. Just know that although we exchange few words nowadays, I'll always be there for you. We won't let things get awkward, right?

2. Jay - It must've been fate that you joined RCK in the way you did, and I don't think I'll ever get over that. I'm grateful that you did, though. We don't talk much unless either of us has a problem or a common goal, but I love talking to you even if it's about something serious and upsetting. You're hilarious and I'm always laughing at the things you say even if they're not that funny simply because it's you. I like that you're into poetry even though you're a guy, and I really admire that because I only know one other guy - excluding my English teacher - that appreciates literature as much as you do. If you ever need anyone to rant to or just talk to, I'm here.

3. Kim - I still remember how we met, and it's crazy that we managed to become friends. I still have to thank Andy for introducing us. You always brought a smile to my face and I can talk to you about absolutely anything. You were always there for me when others weren't, and I love spending time with you, Skyping with you, and acting stupid. I actually don't mind being bored as long as you're around even though I complain about the fact that there's nothing to do. I'm so sorry for ever lying to you over a year ago, but I hope that despite it all, we can still stay friends. I consider you to be one of my best friends, and I hope that will always hold true.

4. Kuku - I've known you since I was 12. I never expected us to become such good friends, but fate - if you believe it - has a strange way of twisting things.You're the only person I met three years ago that I still talk to now. I remember there was a point in our friendship when we didn't talk to each other for months for no reason; we just drifted apart. I don't know how I ever went that long without talking to you. I always have a lot of fun talking to you because you act so immature and it makes me laugh. I know you have a lot of things to deal with, but I'll always listen to you. I'm no good in the advice department, but I'm happy to lend an ear. You're one of my best friends, and I hope that our friendship will always stay strong.

5. Wei - I met you like what, a week ago? Already I consider you to be one of my closest friends. I didn't think we'd ever become friends, like I said, but I'm glad I was proved wrong. School's getting in the way and we don't seem to get on much at the same time anymore, but I hope our friendship won't fade away during that time. When I get on MSN and you're not on, I get sad and wonder where you are.You're so fun to talk to, full of wisdom, yet at the same time, really immature, and I never get bored when I'm with you. I never knew that you had a wide range of hobbies and interests, and I'm honestly eager to get to know you better. I already wrote a blog entry about you, so I'm not sure what else to say that isn't repetitive.
