Besancon I'm coming

Two more days and I'm going to France! I'm so excited, not only because we're going to some cute little village in France, Besancon, but also because I get to miss a math investigation AND the 12 minute run in P.E.!!

Today was one of my hyper-go-happy days and I was just in one of those really annoyingly jolly moods. I mean, even I find myself annoying sometimes! Like when I talk a lot in one go, I can actually hear this monolog playing inside my head:
"God, you sounded so stupid!"
"Because I had a lot to say."
"Why do I have so much to say?!"
"Because I'm hyper today."
"Ugh, this hyperness is getting others annoyed."

So I'm trying to be more in control of what I say and do, most preferably thinking before I act, like they told us to do in primary school. Only now do I understand what they're trying to shape our minds into: unannoying, friendly and polite little angels. Which I am so totally not. Ask some people. They probably think I'm a bitch. But who cares? Honestly, I live life for friends and all the happiness that the other aspects of it provide. I don't spent time dwelling on the shadows and the boredom...what kind of life would that be?

Anyway, a couple of things happened today, which when put on this blog, seems even more than it actually is. So...

1) I got a part in the drama production at our school! The play is called "Chatroom" and has altogether 6 actors in it: 3 girls and 3 boys. The day of the audition I was so nervous! Camilla and me were outside the room waiting for the people inside to call us in, and the whole time we were wondering whether or not we should just leave. Because there was this room FILLED with grade 11s or 12s (I couldn't tell) and our drama teacher, Mr. McAllister. But we didnt leave (we're so brave, see? :P). Camilla, Beatta and me did the auditions first where we had to sit backs towards each other in a kind of triangle and had these conversations. Our conversation topics were: Christina Aguilera and fur coats.
My head was so totally blank then. So I was the whole time saying, "We have the power to kill animals, so we should!" (I don't actually mean that, because we were suppose to argue, and since Camilla was saying how bad killing animals was, I just had to choose being the one for it...). Anyway I'm so happy I got the part!

2) We had this english assessment, where we had to read this short story then answer questions about it. There were altogether about 2 pages of questions and then a page of written work to do. The story was about this sniper who kills the enemy sniper, then finds out that its actually his brother he's killed. And we had to write this letter, pretending that we're the sniper and that we're writing to our mom from jail. There were a few parts where i was quite confused. But I have no idea how confused I really was until I have a look at my papers when I get them back...

3) Math common assessment baack!! I got 89% after I noticed that the teacher forgot to give me an extra mark (before I had 88%)...not much difference but still, it sounds better than 88%!! :D XZ was the BEST in the grade...I was so proud of her! She was quite thrilled that she got better than BAGUYANG (this guy she loathes and always wants to beat) and even gave me one of her treasured strawberry flavored bubble gums!! (lol she should get high marks more often, then i'll get bubblegums too!)

4) I had to go to the dentist to "wash" my teeth, since I have braces and things get stuck there (don't ask what sort of things). I got off at Stephansplatz and it only took about 2o minutes so I just went home after that.

I'm so freaking tired. And I think I still need to do some work. Shoot.
