A sad Halloween!

Hay! (I know I spelled "hey" wrong)

So today's Halloween and I will not be going out to trick or treat because I have assignments to finish, but I will be handing out candy.

Today I was originally supposed to go to this Halloween party, and not it's not like those parties where you have beer and stuff like that. I was actually a volunteer thing. See, I'm part of this Halloween event planning team and part of a team member, you kind of have to go to the party. Well, I haven't been feeling well for the past few days and I think I may have caught a cold. Like yesterday after school, I lost my voice, and I just got my voice back this morning but my head still hurts a lot. My parents advised me not to go to the party because I am contagious and I can contaminate people, plus it's not going to be a fun party if you have a sick person walking around which will make the party even worse.

Anyhow, I emailed the team members and the youth workers, but they haven't replied back yet which is strange because usually they email you right away. Like yesterday when I got home, my parents were like go to sleep if you don't feel well. So I did and woke up at 9pm and immediately send them an email, but only to find out this morning that the email did not work. So I went to school today because I had to do a presentation, and emailed the members again that I can't come. When I got home, the first thing I did was email them that I can't come. I do feel bad that I gave them a short notice, but on Friday, I will go to the center and apologize. I called my mom and she was like don't worry they're just busy, but what if they don't get it?

I have to go now because I have to start studying for a test tomorrow. Have a safe and spooky Halloween.

Just another day...

Hey!

So I'm currently experiencing some writers block...again. I can't really think of anything to talk about today. Umm...well today at school, I was originally supposed to do THREE presentations today, well technically two.

The civics presentation isn't really a presentation, it's just one of those presentations where you show your video to the rest of the class. The only problem is that the video should be at least 20 minutes long, and our group is like less than 10. The thing is that each group consists of four people, and my friend and I got paired up with these two boys at default because everyone else was already in a group. What happened was that our group decided to split up the project, like my friend and I will do 10mins, and the other two boys will do 10 mins. So my friend and I do 10 minutes but, the video didn't flow well, it was very choppy. The other two boys did only 3 minutes, which got me so mad! The worst thing was that I'm the only one in our group who has a Mac, so I'm the only one that can edit and work on it. So, what happened was that today, one of the groups had a 40 minute presentation, and the other group had a 15 minute presentation, we were supposed to go third. Guess what happened! The speakers for some reason stopped working so we're presenting our tomorrow which is great for me so that I can edit and make it longer, but I'm still frustrated. Lately, I've been feeling like this.

I also did my English presentation today. I think it went okay, I'm still really nervous for the results though. You see, our group's skit is supposed to be dramatic, not comedic, but I played a panicking pregnant lady and I guess some of my actions and lines were funny to the audience. After awhile, during the presentation, I said something really funny and my group started giggling a bit, but they tried not to because it's not professional. My biggest fear was that the presentations had to be 15 minutes and our groups presentation at most is 5 minutes. However, the two other groups that went ahead of us, were also about 5 minutes which calmed me down because that way, we weren't the only ones that had a short skit. After the skit, I was like this.

For my French presentation, I didn't do mine because there wasn't enough time. Great. I actually really wanted to do my presentation today just to get it over with but now, there's even more pressure on me.

So now I have to get ready for tomorrows day. By the way, today is the last day of Hurricane Sandy here in Toronto so YAY!

Randoms...

As you can see, this is how I look like when I wake up in the morning. My hair is ALL over my face. I don't know why I took a picture of myself in the morning. Just another random picture...

Closer and U

Hey!

So I've been recently listening to Closer by Taeyeon and U by Taemin, both of these songs were from To The Beautiful You.

This video does not belong to me

OMG! I love this song so much. Taeyeon sounds so good here, like I knew that she would sound perfect because Taeyeon has by far the best voice in Snsd. I love the lyrics to this song, it's so meaningful, and it really reflects Jaehee and Taejoon's love story.

This video does not belong to me

Wow! What can I say Taemin has finally grown up into a man. I honestly had absolutely no idea he would sound so nice, I think it's because Taemin is mainly known for his dancing skills. When I first heard this song in the drama, I had no idea that it was Taemin, I thought it was just some random artist. But WOW, I really like his voice. I can't wait until the future when Taemin will release his single. 

That's it for now, because I need alot of sleep.

Why SM WHY?

Hey!

So, I am just so tired of SM! You know why? Well it's because SM doesn't come to CANADA. I don't know why they don't come to Canada like it doesn't really make sense for SM Entertainment to hold auditions in Canada if they don't even come to perform. It really sucks cause it's like you already have two SM artists that are from Canada, Henry and Kris. It's like what more can Canada do to get SM to tour in Canada. Canada already has had flashmobs in Toronto, Montreal, Winnipeg, Vancouver, and Ottawa, and here are some of the videos of Canadian kpop flashmobs.

In Toronto

In Montreal

In Vancouver

In Winnipeg

Although all of these flashmobs were last year, SMTOWN still haven't come to Canada yet and I'm sitting here writing my blog crying.

But what really stinks is that Super Junior's leader Leeteuk even saw the flashmob and tweeted it on his twitter and still no SMTOWN in Canada.

Credit: to the rightful owner

I just don't understand how they go to FRANCE! Like I have nothing against France but it's just that most SM  artists barely know how to speak English and they go to FRANCE! Like, even Big Bang came to Canada during summer 2012. In fact, one of my friend who is a huge fan of Big Bang went to their concert. She asked me if I wanted to come with her but I had to say "no" because the tickets were way too expensive plus I had to do volunteering that day. I hope that SMTOWN seriously comes to Canada fast because bands like Super Junior and Snsd have been around the market for a long time and I'm afraid that by the time SMTOWN comes to Canada, their contract might be due and they disbanded. So I'm just praying that one day, SMTOWN will come to Canada...specifically Toronto.

Long Weekened

Hey!

So here in Toronto, we have a long weekend! Yay...wait no, it's just another excuse to give students more homework. So, I recently finished my commercial for English and I'm so glad that I'm done. So far there's not much updates of EXO, hopefully they're preparing for their comeback soon. I just found out that I have two followers on my blog! YAY! You know, I realize that I don't update my blog as often as other bloggers do but I do try my test.

Currently I'm experiencing some writers block so I'll just let my mind control my fingers. Umm... so you all know that I'm Canadian-Chinese, Canadian by citizenship so I'm watching Fei Cheng Wu Rao which is like the Chinese version of Take Me Out. Not as good as Take Me Out but it's still pretty good. So, like I said, it's autumn here in Canada and it's really pretty. I'm typing on my dad's Mac and I'm trying to figure this picture transfer thingy so yeah...but I can't since it only allows android, but I will finish typing this up on another computer.

Moi

Yes yes, I know I'm really dark for an East Asian. It's just a random picture I took on my webcam. Right now, I'm just re-watching EXO on Happy Camp. After that, I have to start on my other homework. So yeah... For some reason I'm been really obsessed with cute stuff. Like cute little stuffed toys from China. 

Sooo cute! (Credit:to the rightful owner)

I wish I had one. 

Oh well, ok so I actually have alot more to say, but I have to end it here because my mom is starting to get annoyed with me for not starting my homework.

So Tired

Hi...

So I am just so tired of school, of homework, of tests, of assignments/projects, skating, and everyone else!!
Like I got home from school and the first thing I did was sleep. I HATE MY LIFE. I hate how I put in so much effort and teachers don't even realize that. UGHH!

Another Day...

Hey!

So today I wrote my English and Civics test. The Civics test wasn't that hard, I thought that I did pretty well on it. The English test was also not too hard. I thought that I did everything pretty well except for the multiple choice questions which I thought was kind of hard, but I'm just glad that I finished it. I still have an essay that I have to type up, an assignment that's due this Friday, and study for a UNIT test that's tomorrow, although I'm not really stressing it. Next week, I still have even more assignments to finish, at least this week is a long weekend. Sometimes I honestly feel that weekends should be three days so that it gives students extra time to study and finish their homework, because during week days, teachers give us students so much homework, like it's crazy. Anyways, I have to type up my essay fast so that my tutor can edit it. Just so you know, I'm writing a blog that's about To the Beautiful You that is still pending. I upload it as soon as I finish typing it.

Bye!

I Hate My Life

Hi...

(Credit: to the rightful owner)

I have one UNIT test tomorrow for French, TWO UNIT tests next Monday, English and Civics, plus a science assignment, and a science UNIT test on Tuesday. Not only that, I still have to work on my cpts (basically it's a really big project that you start at the beginning of the semester, and it's due at the end of the semester), and my ISU (independent study unit). On top of all that, I have alot of pressure on me to do well because my parents expect so much from me.

School...

Hey...

So, I know that I've already told y'all that I have a all the hard subjects this semester?! Well guess what! Not only do I have all the heavy subjects this semester, but I also have a very heavy backpack! So, I have this huge science textbook that takes up more than half of the weight, plus I have 4 two inch binders, that are also heavy. I honestly wish that teachers would just cut down the amount of homework we have I mean, students in highschool already has quizzes, tests, projects/assignments, and not to mention EXAMS. Plus, what about the people who are in clubs and teams? Teachers are constantly telling us that we have to organize our time, well, how can we organize our time if you keep on giving us homework!? Also, weekends are days for students to relax at home and have some fun. I don't think teachers understand that students also need a life, it's not just all about staying a home and doing homework. Ughhhh!

For me, I can get really off topic. Like when I get home, I should  be doing this:

But in reality, I'll be doing this:

Honestly, it's like I'll be trying my best to do my homework and study for tests, but I just can't.

What's worse is that like I have East-Asian parents so they expect alot from me. Ever since grade seven, I started getting straight As, and last year in grade 9, my overall average is like 90%, so now my parents are expecting so much from me, and I'm only in GRADE 10. Sometimes I just want to shake my parents and tell them that I'm not a perfect student, but I'm trying, it's like you have to give me time. It's not like I'm Albert Einstein. Plus I'm in grade 10, like if I were in grade 11 or 12, then yeah it makes sense because universities do look at your grades when you go into grade 11. It's like OMG!

I have one UNIT test this week and TWO next week so I have to start studying.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey!

So happy Thanksgiving to all of you.

This year, I am really thankful of my family and all the things they've provided me. Yes, sometimes I do get into fights with my family, but without them, I would've never been able to survive. They've provided a home to live in, clothes to wear, and food to eat, but most importantly, they've given me the love and care I need. Thank you mom and dad.

Winter is Already Here?

Hey!

So I'm pretty sure that you all know by now that I live in Canada. It's only October and already I can feel the winter breeze as I walk to school. There was this one day when I was walking to my bus stop from school, and honestly, I thought I saw snow, or maybe it's because I wear glasses. Don't get me wrong, I love snow, like I still remember when I was in grade 5, and my friends and I would try and make these huge snowballs. It's weird how when you see people making snowmen on television, it seems so easy but in reality, it's not. I still remember when it took almost four people just to roll a snowball.

I found this video on youtube.com of a cartoon on how-to-build-a-snowman

I honestly thought that it was absolutely hilarious especially the part where it said you will need "snow." HAHAHAHA!!!! Of course, when building a snowman, you need snow. I guess it's because maybe this video is created for kids in like elementary school. 

I don't even know why I'm watching this in October. I shouldn't even been thinking about snow, I should think about school, and what I'm going to dress-up for Halloween this year. So, this year, I'm planning to dress up as Geisha. I have the costume already, it's just that I have to get face paint and the right make up on. I know that Geisha has really pale skin, and really red lips. I know this is going to make me sound dumb but, when I first heard of Geisha, I honestly thought that Geisha was some Chinese person because in the movie Memoirs of Geisha, the main character was played by Zhang ZiYi who is a notable Chinese actress.

If Geisha doesn't work out, then I'll dress up as Mulan. Hey they do have the same make up, plus there is also a make up tutorial of Mulan.

Oh WOW! I'm getting off topic here...

As I was saying, this year, winter is definitely coming soon, like today, my mom and I was out shopping and we got this winter coat ALREADY! Can you believe it? Weather is sure weird. Anyways if it's already snowing where you live, then have a safe winter, and don't slip and fall on your butt! Kekeke...
