OMG I MISS EVERYONE IN VICTORIA SOO MUCH!!! I will be back soon!!! Me coming back is actually what inspired me to write this post...
Of course. When something crappy happens, it's going to be the kind of thing that make you think that it could only ever happen to you. On my way back to Victoria, I wil be flying from Aberdeen to Paris, then Paris to Seattle, then Seattle to Victoria. I was stoked when I found out we got to go through Paris. I've never been to Paris!!! With our luck, we always end up staying for 4 hours at airports, and to be honest, I was actually looking forward to spending a few hours in Paris. Guess what? We have less then an hour to go through security, get our bags, find our terminal, stop for some croissants, throw away the cute little bag that the croissants come in, get to the terminal and then leave for Seattle. Wait, you still haven't heard the best part. Do you know how long we'll have to wait in the crappy Seattle airport? FIVE AND A HALF HOURS!!! Or course, it could only ever happen to me. Sigh.
Has stuff like that ever happened to you? Of course it has! We're middle school humans!!! You know what I'm talking about. The one day you 'forget' to bring your instrument to band, the band gets an awesome new song. Only when you don't go to school does all the important or fun stuff happen. ONLY when you decide that this saturday, you're going to go for a bike ride instead of going to the mall like you do every saturday, there's a huge sale in the store that you otherwise can't afford to shop at. You get the picture.
I am so jealous of the people who got to go on the bike trip to camp thunderbird. Why couldn't I go? I had to go to a wedding. In Scotland. OF COURSE, the people getting married have been together for over 23 years, and they choose the same weekend as my trip to get married.
I remember my worst day ever; the walk home in the rain. For those of you who don't remember me going on and on about it, I'll write the story here:
So, I was walking home and it had been an absolutely gorgeous day so far. All of a sudden, it start to hail. HAIL! It's smacking my face and bare arms and legs and eventually, it started to hurt. Then the hail stopped and was followed by the biggest downpour of rain I have ever seen. So, at this point, my shorts are soaking wet, my shirt is almost transparent (I picked a pretty bad day to wear a white t-shirt with a white camisole underneath, didn't I?), my makeup is streaming down my face and my 75$ sandals are probably ruined. The moment I step inside the house, the rain instantly stops. The sun comes out, the sky is blue, the clouds are whiter then most of the grade 7 girls' face when they found out they're not allowed to bring their hair straightener to camp thunderbird, and the birds are chirping. See, moments like these are the reason I'm atheist.
So, Scottish tea in hand (which is amazingly strong, like, you but the hot water in the mug, then you put the tea bag in for 5 seconds and it's te strongest tea I've ever had in my life. I'm not joking), I leave you yearning for the next post. AND FOR ME!!! See you guys soon! Unless we decide that it's not even worth waiting for the plane in Seattle and we end up residing there. lol.

I'll miss you!!!
By the way, I am leaving for Scotland tomorrow and there is a huge time difference, so what is a wednesday evening could be a thursday morning for you, so don't freak out if my post isn't on when you check, it'll be on later! Also, I will probably not have time to blog regularly, but I will blog AT LEAST once a week unless noted otherwise. I will be back to my regular blogging schedule on Monday, May 31st.
When I'm away, I will miss div. 8. I will miss the random outbursts, the teachers dismal attempt at trying to get us to shut up, the lectures we get about the area of circles, and the arguments we have about whether or not the stuff we're taught is true. Div. 8 is special. I mean, what other class is small enough to make substitutes think we're hiding people? What other class is close enough to know everything about each other? What other class is so dedicated to not doing math that they will make an effort to cause a giant big class discussion on something totally irrelevant to what we're doing? Well, I'm sure there may be other classes that are KIND OF like ours, but no one does it with the kind of swagga we got:P (no one on the corner has swagga like us, swagga like us, swagga swagga like us)
When I'm in Scotland, I know that all of my relatives will be shoving haggis and black pudding (no, black pudding isn't a dessert, it's a pigs stomach mixed with oats and pig blood) down my vegetarian throat, and I will be lectured constantly about how I'm going to shrivel up and die because I don't eat enough, but I'm used to that. My oh-so-supportive classmates are always mocking my vegetarian-ness. My all time favorite joke made about me is this, "of course she doesn't eat meat, if she ate meat it would be considered cannibalism". To some, this may sound mean, and you are totally right. BUT, the reason this is my favorite, is that it shows the person who used it really does have no life, except for sitting there and thinking about ways to insult people (well, mostly just me) to try and make himself appear cooler, LMFAO. Really, that's how low people stoop? Anyway, I know y'all are just jealous of my svelte, earthy energy, you're just to scared to admit it:P Seriously though, I wouldn't be me if I wasn't vegetarian:)
I know this is short, but it's late and I have to get up at 4 a.m. to catch a flight to seattle. Or is it San jose?? Uh-oh, I think the monday curse is effecting me...
Anyway, feeling sad, I leave you yearning for the next post. If there is one. lol.
