Er, yeah. Thats what I’m listening to.

Where are all my affies? I think an affie check will be necessary soon. Not much has happened this week, that I can think of at least, but I definitely need to blog.

I’ve been working on a layout that was going to be a winter skin, but I think it’ll just be a web layout. I’ve also been having loads of history homework, as usual, and have been falling asleep in History class. Thankfully, the teacher opened the window today and let in a bit of fresh air. Om nom.

I’ve returned to Subeta, kinda. Its changed a bit and I don’t remember a lot from when I used to go on there a lot. That was a year ago, because I remember Morostide (Halloween). I love Subeta. Its like neopets with brilliant art, artists and a cbox. I haven’t tried taking art commissions there again though. Only on mweor.

Tomorrow I have a field trip to this infamous city. All the signs are in spanish because of how many immigrants, legal and illegal, live there. I’m going with my spanish class. We’ll be teaching adults and children at a literacy program english. A lot of them don’t even know how to write in spanish. It’ll be interesting…I’m not sure whether I want to teach the children or the adults. Hum. Wish me luck, I’m feeling intimidated.

Friday I’ll be seeing New Moon with some friends from my old school, pulling off the act of insane twilight fangirl and screaming with the rest. Hurhur. I think I’ll enjoy it. Bella gets depressed, and I’m not going through the happiest of days right now either. I never liked Jacob much, but wolves are cool. Except in the movie they seem to roar. o.O Wolves don’t roar…I guess werewolves do. *spolier* Oops.

So affies, visitors, peeps, home dawg skillets, wazzup wit you? I’m hoping for more than two comments on this one.

Swine is in the air!

Seems like half the school is out this week. Like, literally. There were somewhere between 100 and 200 people absent or dismissed by the end of the school day monday. Things haven’t changed much, except I don’t think any of my teachers were sick today. Well, no, they were sick, but they weren’t absent.

In art class we are moving onto painting. I feel bad because I rudely snatched a picture option (we’re painting famous paintings) from someone that they wanted, and in the process I looked like a fool because I lost my footing and way pretty much laying across the table. I like that person too, even though I don’t know them. *fail* I hope she’ll forgive me; I just couldn’t stand the idea of painting some stuck up princely rich bum…Oh well.

Tomorrow we’re going on a field trip to Shaker Village in New Hampshire. Its gonna be good, because I don’t have any classes or homework…And shakers are pretty cool. Its a shame its a dead religion now, they had some rather nifty ideas. If I wasn’t a christian, I’d want to be a shaker. Maybe.

Ah yes, no content. Sad, yes? I did go around to over twenty sites advertising the halloween contest though…And yesterday I redid the Death banner.

For spanish, tow other girls and I have a spanish blog. Tonight I wrote a rather amusing report on a rather entertaining event in minnesota. Check it out if you know spanish.

Food, glorious food…!

I have the song stuck in my head. x|

I’m eating Count Chocula. Nom nom. The little rice things look like the ghosts from pac-man. Anyhow, today I don’t have very much homework, so I’m going to try to get a lot done. I also need to find the notebook that I am writing my book in. It around here somewhere…

Anyhow, I’m off to get my homework done, and then I’ll be back to work on content. I’ve got to make up for not updating majorly in a while.

Plumes of pulverized poop squeaking past the poop scoop.

The helpful sign resides above a massive turd vat.

The defecation needs aeration!

The poop chute! You don’t want to take a ride on this slide…

…o.o

POOP CAT!

More pictures here, and larger sizes.

My mood worsens.

It doesn’t have so much to do with being robbed as it does with other things. I feel indifferent to the pilferer now.

I woke up at three in the morning with post nasal drip (snot in my throat) and a really sore throat. It killed killed killed to swallow. I managed to fall asleep and had a pleasant dream about going to a Coldplay concert, but I didn’t get past the second support band. Oh well, it was still cool. Unlike the other five or so concert dreams I’ve had, this one was indoor, in some elaborately furnished red theatre with wooden bleachers.

Anyhow, in the morning my brother and I got out to the bustop late. The bus hadn’t come yet, but when I got there I realized I’d left my homework folder in my room. I ran back to my house as fast as I could (I actually impressed myself by how fast I sped up. It was like run, run run, BAM! Supersonic speed!) and got to the door…to find it locked. I was spazzing out, and I attacked the door, hammering it with my fists as hard as I could hoping one of my parents would hear me so I could tell them to bring my folder to school.
Alas, whilst I was pounding, I heard the foreboding sound of a bus coming, and a few seconds later it went by. NUUU!! I turned around and traveled at the speed of sound back to my stuff at the bus stop with everybody probably watching me (*blush*) and followed everybody else on, giving the bus driver a weak smile.
While I was sitting on the bus I was feeling really bad. Not only was I sick, I was in a poor emotional state and on the verge of tears. When I got to school I realized I could call my dad and have him bring it in. He was coming to my school anyway to chaperone my brother’s field trip. Thank God, he got it in before I had my homework checked…*glomps God with relief*

The day ended on a light note with me taking a giant history exam and writing the best essay of my life. :D Here are some questions for you.

  1. Do you want to see pictures from my brother’s field trip to the sewer/waste treatment plant? xD POOP PICS! 8D
  2. Ever missed the bus?
  3. Should I keep making user lookups, guild layouts, and pet page layouts?

Figmint was stared way back on March 19th...some year. This site is mainly run by the infamous Frisby, a writer, artist, and of course, web designer. She an her co-owner Lauren are obsessed with Coldplay, but mostly their song Viva la Vida (which pwns), so you should be too.

Enjoy the site!
