*headdesk*

If I decided to do the play (which I'll admit is kinda stupid) I  just remembered my audition is tomorrow. I did that so I wouldn't have to come back after my spare. Uugh. Man.

I'm just like I was to do the play cause you know it's fun (sometimes) and at the end, the whole after party is totally awesomenesst. Like seriously. With the musical, I had soo much fun during the preformances and after party, and I was so sad it was over. But now ... hmm ... I dont know what to do. *headdesk*

Okay, I have resultted to this


*shakes head*

eta: OMG BRITNEY SPEARS SHAVED HER HEAD.

AHAHAHAHA.

So we got our matchmaker results today ahah. Man ... weird really. But I DIDN'T GET THE SAME IDIOT PEOPLE AS LAST YEAR *dances*.

For my number one, I got this guy who I dont really talk to, but he talks to my BFF all of the time, cause they both play hockey and like to chat, and we went to middle school together, but then these girls in my gym class are like "aww you'd made a cut couple" and I'm like ... o_O.

At the bottom of the page, there are two guys who are your "mystery match" and they only give the first name, and not the last, and then the printout number of their match maker, and grade (but they put the grade beside each person) and I was like "ooh" cause maybe I thought it was this guy who I think is sorta cute, but then there's just a problem where there are at least 3 other guys in our grade with his name. I was like >.< THAT HELPS ALOT.

And then apparantly this guy is in the same gym period as I am (which I had no clue about honestly) and I was watching his class do archery (cause I ditched my teacher to do badminton instead of soccer, but my and the two girls i was with got bored of it and didn't want to have to join in in soccer) so we went and just watched the archery on the other side. And yeah, it was so cute cause he sucks so much lmfao. The teacher is like "[insert his last name here] you plan on shooting those arrows today!?"

haha.

On another note, my bitch of a cooking teacher gave my group 50% on our cookies we made today because we apparantly "doubled the receipie", which admitandlty we did but we had to cause it was supposed to be dough and it looked honestly like icing for cake/cookies and shit. I was ticked. It's like pfft, f u too lol. But we accidently doubnled the butter too and well, it was sooo greasy lol. She already doesn't like me beacuse I asked to go to my locker yesterday to get my work cause I forgot it, and apparantly, she hates when ppl do that. 

Idiot.

Anyhoo, I chopped all of my hair off ^__^. Well sorta. I cut 5/6 inches off I beleive. And it was halfway down my back. I have no clue to be honest how much the hairdresser acctually cut off; the girl said she was cutting 3 but it's way more than that.

Anyways, my dad boought a new monitor, a Samsung 19" flat screen, and the resolution is 1024x768, just like my old, small monitor (somehere around 13" i think, dunno) was set at, but now when I make graphics and such, I do everything the same, and even my old graphics look so pixely. Like it's weird. And the graphisc are just huge man. I swear a 700x110 regular HPFF banner is freaking like 900x250 on my old monitor. I swear. It was such a shock, and a hard time, to make teh first thing with this monitor. But yeah.

My question, if anyone feels free or even cares to answer, (which I'm sure I could find by googling but am too lazy), do the bigger your screen in (same resloltuion mind you) well, enlarge things a lot?? 

lol. Like when I asked for that one-line critique from Kay on TDA, she said I might have a problem with oversharpening, but I didn't think so at the time, but I got my new monitor yesterday, and I was like =O "she's right!!!!" I was like "ewwww" when I looked at one graphic. *shudders*.

OMG YAY. In TA last week we had to fill out these Valentine Day Match Maker bubble sheets out, and we did them last year but I got literally nerdy, just plain, not my type guys, and so this year I slightly changed my preferences (so I wouldn't really get the same ppl) and so yeah. We get them tomorrow at lunch. It's nuts. We have to go to teh gym and go to the appropriate table with our last name, and my table, weirdly, has the most people with that range of letters. Yeesh. I'm so excited. I'm so ready for a good laugh. But it's $2 gah. I'm broke.

And on another side note, yay I'm 5'3 now ahah. My liscence says 5'2 and I got it in October .. so hmm .. *looks around* I wonder if I'm still growing???

[/pointless]

zomg I died my hair. Well my sister did, anyhoo. Since I had like bleach in my hair, the dye wasn't covering it, so my sister caked it on, and my hair is down to the middle of my back (it's soo long and annoying to take care of). Anyhoo, I just wanted it to match my natural hair color so that once my hair started growing, you wouldn't notice my roots, and my natural hair is dark, but my hair is now a good shade or two darker haha.

With a huge tint of red (iuno wtf the red came from ??)

And omg, when I was washing it out, it took forever and the water was sooo nasty lol. I was like aw man. It was like a narsty brown haha.

But yah. It looks good and I like it, but now I'm abnormally pale lol. I dont tan easily (which sucks). I'm ttempted to get a spray on tan, but I have the feeling that what happened to Ross on Friends when he got a spray on tan (fuking hallirioustststst episode ever, seriously) is going to happen to me also haha, =D Man that would sooo suck!

I went to Walmart today and bought hair dye. Yay. I've been dying to dye my hair brown for ages (I've highlighted it so many times it's pratically blonde). My natural hair is rather dark, so Im happy to be going back to that. Although I have a feeling it's going to turn out slightly reddish.

Ah well. It was only $10.

But yaay for the weekend. I've been waiting for the weekend to come since like ... monday lol.

Annd now I got a stomach ache slightly. Uugh. 

=(

*shakes head*

The one day my school doesn't have school, all of the schools in the division are closed. Why, you ask? It's -50 celcius out. Well it was earlier. Now as I look at the weather channel, its a bit warmer. And has been around -50 for the past 3 days. I woke up this mornign and my mom was like "schools are closed" and I was like "i dont even have school. we have an inservice." and then my sister's car wouldn't start this morning, and my house has 2 heaters going (like ones you plug into the wall) and I have an extra blanket or two thrown over me.

It's soo cold. I'm serious. Omg pfft. I'm watching the weather channel, and some city in Alberta was +13. As friggen if. 

Grr. Canada and it's stupid arctic winter air.

My sister is such a bitch. She is so annoying; I can't wait until she leaves for a week. It's going to be so peace and quiet. And a whole free week of the cmoputer without her writing her stupid papers. yes i know they're for school but she can't just waltz in every day, every hour saying "I need the computer." Uugh!!!!

Uugh. She is so annoying.

*headdesk*

I'm rather bored =(

I thought of a new story that I think would be fun to write out. It's set in the Marauder-era so I've been on the Lexicon for the past 2 hours gathering cannons and their years from that time era. How fun!! I honestly didn't know Narcissa was older than the Marauders lol. I always thought she was like the same age. I've read too many fanfictions where Lucius, Roddy, Bella, etc etc are all in the same year. But those were like written either loonnng times ago, or jsut the author either a) didn't know or b) is stupid.

Jkjk.

And I'm tired. Very tired. I asked my dad if I could take the car to school not next week, but the week after cuz my sister isn't going to be home (it's her car, which is a peice of crap lol), and he said no so I got kinda ticked. I made a big stink how he never takes me driving, so he said he'd take me Sunday before the Superbowl. At first he's like "well go at 10am" and I was like "pfft, you can but I'm sleeping in thank you."

Annd I dont have school monday *dances* yay. Haha so for the release of DH, the 20th is my BFF's birthday, and hopefully I will pass my road test by then, so I asked her if she was doing anything for her birthday and she's like no so I was like good, so I'm going to take her out for dinner (my treat) with prolly one other friend who wants to come and is a big HP nerd like me, and then we're going to head down to a midnight party near the mall at the bookstore. So yeah. Even if I dont pass my road test, I'm still taking the car. I aint taking no bus thats for damn sure.

Omg today in precal I was like o_O. I was so lost. I haven't done math in 7 months, and even though algebra is so easy for me, and we're just doing basics to refresh our memory, I cannot get these answers on the worksheet to be the same as the answer key for the life of me. I was like omg. *headdesk* I was doing it while watching 10 Things I Hate About You on tbs. I was getting annoyed, so I fell asleep sitting up on the couch ... and then again on the keyboard when i first got on the computer.

I am soo tired. And now my hands hurt from typing.

Okay when the title of HP7 was released, I had just finished my school's production and had not been on the computer yet in a while, so I heard of the title Deathly Hallows from the DJ on the RADIO!!!

Guess what!? 

Today, I was pinning my bangs back when I heard "And the 7th HP book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows ..."

I totally perk RIGHT UP ....

"... Will be released July 21st."

I was like OMGOMGOMGOZOMZOMGOGMOM!!!!! From the same DJ on the radio too!! Yeesh man. It was like 8:10am. It's now 8:19am.

*dances* I take my road test on July 10th (or at least my first available day)

July is going to KICK ASS, my people! I'll be able to drive alone (if I pass of course, but screw that I'll prlly take the car anyway) to OOTP when it comes out opening night, AND NOW, I'll be able to drive to the bookstore too. Last time my dad had to wait up past midnight, and drive all the way to the store and pick me and my friend (who I dragged along and evidentally fell asleep in the children's section lmfao) and yeah. This time I'ma be like "Dad, hand me your keys. No need to wait up."

How friggen awesome is that? =D

I <3 driving lmfao.

And Harry Potter. And I'm so getting my tan on this summer. It's going to rocks ^__^

Well I have to leave for school in 10 mins, so must finish getting ready.

Lataz,
Bre

Okay so my dad's a Photographer right, and he did a wedding in September, and he gave me like 200 pics to fix up in Photoshop in September, and yeah I did them all and everything, (mainly just sharpened them all), so he printed out proofs for the couple to decide on, and put them in a photo album and everything and the couple returned them back to us a few days ago saying they wanted ALL OF THEM on the CD that my dad gave them along with the photo album, and wanted my dad to develop them for them.

So yeah. My dad went to this big photography place that prints pics and then the dude who was going to develop them was like "Ah, sir these are too small. They need to be 72 dpi and a 300 resolution." So my dad comes home and tells me and I was like "300 friggen resloution? are you serious?" They're all at 72 currently. Not only I dont know what the fuk dpi means lol (I think google said something about dots per inch) or something, but yeah. I changed one pic to 300 res. and it took like a minute or longer to load. I was like, "and she wants the entire CD done?" and he's like "yeah" and I laughed and was like "Yeah well they definately aint going to get these by tomorrow. Or possibly next week because I do not have the time or patience to do them all in one sitting."

And then the printing place said we needed to resize the image on the computer to the size we want. So I was like OKAY WTF!?? So I tried to do a simple 8x10 like the couple wanted, and my fucking stupid photoshop wont do 8x10. It will do 7x10 and 8x12, but not 8x10. And I tried to explain to my dad that the images dimensions (3072x2048) WONT ALLOW ME TO MAKE AN 8x10 UNLESS I CROP THEM AND I AINT DOING THAT FOR EVERY DAMN ONE!!!

But serious. 3072x2048? HOW IS THAT SMALL!??????

Idiots, I swear.

The Next Harry Potter

The BBC has announced that they will be launching a new reality series later this year in search of a "real" Harry Potter. The show will follow young students studying magic at a boarding school as they face off, showing their skills at varying card tricks and illusions. Someone will leave the show each week until only one remains and becomes the The Sorcerer's Apprentice.

Oh dear Lord!

How stupid is that!??

 *headdesk* *facepalm*

Yay!

Exams are officially over. My geo exam was fairly easy in my opinion. It only took me half an hour to do lol. Everyone was like "shiit I know I failed?" and then there's me "I think I got *hopefully* at least over 85-90%" lol. I will honestly be really surprised if I get lower than 85%. 

But now, I have a 5 day weekend. SWEETNESS. If you dont have exams monday or tuesday, you dont have to go to school, and then the entire school has wednesday off as a "Semester Break" So yayya!.

Omg my sister has been on the computer all day, all night for the past like 3/4 days. It's sooooooo annoying. I only get on for, I swear, 5-10 minutes at a time, which sucks cause I have an urge to write my story. I would print it out like I sometimes do with one-shots so I can continue writing it properly and all, but it's kinda longish and I dont want to use any ink. 

So yeah.

Boo.

Because I was bored, I went through my folder entitled Stories > 2006 NEW where I found a document called DreamLondonSkies. I was like hmm, so I opened it, typed in my password and began reading it. It was a document created on August 6th, 2006. I remember writing it; I was inspired by the title I had on my LJ at the time ...

I really like it, I've concluded. I love how I wrote certain parts, to me it just flows nicely.

Sadly, it's not finished and I had no clue as to where I was taking this story =(

I have a shrewd idea but I dont know. Dammit!

Ahh, I jsut remembered, I was supposed to write in detail about something which I promised in my last post.  But ahh screw it I dont remember lol.

Just that I drove to the theater lol. It took me 40 minutes lmfao!!! SO what, if I was going ilke 40 km/h?? I was being cautious and plus I had a slow ass guy in front of me lol.

OH YEAH, my drama exam.


But yeah. I made a banner for HPFF for my old story Sister, Sister. I'm redoing banners that I made myself, so yeah. I kind of jsut threw some weird styles together. It aint the greatest, but meh. The old one was uglier.

Omg my drama exam thing was yesterday. We kind of like preform in front of an audience who come at 7pm. It was an hour long. LOL, the funniest part of the show was when the lights when out for a scene change, and this girl tripped over a box, and literally flipped right over it. The ENTIRE audience laughed. It got more laughs than anything else in the show lmfao.

Yay I'm seeing Stomp The Yard tonite with Steph, and my dad is letting me drive =D

I'll write more details on the drama thing l8er on. Am gonna finish getting ready.

ttyl,
Bre <33

Wow first sem is almost over. I start my english exam on thursday and it's a 5 day exam, which kind of sucks. I asked my teacher what my mark was, but she wouldn't tell me straight forward. She just said you're between a 85-90%, without the exam, and going into the exam I have around a 68-69. Our exam is worth 20%, so if I do well, I should get mid-high 80's as a final mark. Geo on the other hand, well we did a project that was due last friday, but then he changed it to monday since like we worked good in class. And then on monday, he made it due for thursday, but then we're going to do our exam review or something, so he made it due for next monday. I usually do good on Geo tests. My last test I got 100% and last time he told us our mark in the class, I was sitting at a 92%.

So I'm quite happy.

Regrestration is like in a month and a half, on March 1st or 2nd usually. In grade 11, it's opional to take a type of science, and the choices are physics, chem, and bio. I was going to do bio since grade 12 bio is a University Entrance Credit. But I'm also taking grade 12 Foods, which is also a UEC. So I dont know. After high school, I was thinking of either going into law, pharmacology or like some type of journalism or something. But I dont know. Isn't like Pharmacology chem or something? Last year, although it could have just been b/c of my teacher, I sucked at the chem unit. But whatev. 

I dont know. I have a month and a half to decide, but I could always change it next year when I get my schedual. So I dont know. I hear bio is easy, but who knows. I'll decide sooner or later ... *lesigh*

Omg my drama exam, well it's sort of an exam. We put together like skits and do them for an audience at night. We have TWO GUYS in our class, and the grade 11 class has like 15 guys I swear. It's so stupid. Anyways, its on Thursday night, and we are so not completely ready. We're so bad *headdesk* It sucks ass so much. =(

Gah I just looked at the time, and it's already 9:15. Yeesh. I still need to take a shower, do my english homework and go to bed early. My alarm didn't go off this morning (at least I dont think it did lol) and I woke up at 8am. I have to leave by 8:30.

I think my alarm does go off in the morning, but I am seriously dead from being up all nite, I just shut if off w/o realizing, or remembering. It took me a few minutes to remember that my TV alarm did go off this morning, and that I shut it off after a few mins. =P

Ahh great, I just heard the shower start running. Dammit! =(

I made so many graphics today lol. I was so bored. 

I made:

6 banners & 4 sets lol. Okay that doesn't seem like a lot, but when they're all open in ur PS, with multiple versions of the same banner on more than one canvas to like add something, it seems like a lot lol

^__^

I'm so tired. I have to go to my grandma's tmo for new years dinner dealy thing. Fun =)

Ow. I played soccer in gym again today, and I like have no grip on my shoes, so I went and kicked the ball, slipped and landed on my ass, however with most of the pressure on my left wrist, since I used my arm to break most of my fall. That's the wrist that hurts so much. 

And to top it all off, I have a cold, it was like -45celcius I swear today, and I got kicked in my leg where my bruise is.

There was like NO ONE at school today. And I walked. 

My hair froze and I looked like a multicolored fruitcake >.< 

=(
