Inspiration

It’s been about 6 months since my last entry. So I’d like to thank my friend Sam for inspiring me to update my blog after he posted his first blog post. Kudos to you, Sam! Oooh you got KUDOS, so lucky

Getting down to business, I’m now in university (Cue really late NEWSFLASH symbol) and in the Honours Environmental Studies Program. Fast forward to the end of my first semester, I got a 7 major average. This is not good because I need at least an 8 to stay in my program; I have to improve the average by May. So I decided to attend S.T.E.P.s programs:

They’re really useful for helping you study more effectively and making notes^^. I suggest it to everyone. Also, I ended up signing up with the Student Disability Services because of my epilepsy, so now I write my midterms and exams with them. I like the atmosphere a lot better, it’s more laid-back and less stressful so taking exams there mean I’m less likely to have a seizure triggered.

Another new thing: I’m now the Treasurer of the Environmental Studies club. It’s a lot of fun, there are a lot of social events (like movie nights and trips to Point Pelee) but we also do cleanups and donating to charities. Our first meeting was on Thursday January 21 2010 at 1pm (so if you saw me rushing around that say, that was why. HUzzah! Only having 5 minutes to eat before being rushes to class). We’re planning lots of events so I hope anyone that’d be interested in joining would let me know so I can keep you informed about what’s going on. It’s keeping me much busier than I thought it would. Cue example:

Monday I have a meeting at 10:30 with Dr. Graniero (our program head), Env Studies Commitee members and Env Studies Club members (including me) to discuss ways to make communication between the three easier.

Another new thing XD: I’ve moved into residence, Dun DUn DUN!!!! So on top of it all I’m no longer at home. People said they’d visit sometime but no one has DX. But yeah, my floormates are all really nice; I know a lot of them. They like to party though and can be quite loud (I can hear them from my room which is the opposite end of where the lounge is). Even though I requested a private room through SDS, I was given a roommate. She’s from Uganda which is really cool.

Anyways…I’m now cued up to the present so that’s about it for now. Jessica, signing off!!!!

Quick awesome Newsflash

I feel like spreading the news everywhere :O! This year, at youmacon 2009, TeamFourStar will be attending as guests. They include MasakoX, Taka, Kaiser, and Lanipator .

TeamFourStar are the creators of Dragonball Z the Abridged series. I can’t wait! Now I have to attend Youmacon -_-.

Edit: LittleKuriboh attended too!!!!! BEST. YOUMACON. EVER! (if you ignore the volunteer wench, that is)

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Comedy

So on Wednesday, I was invited by Liane and her family to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince at 10:15pm. I didn’t really enjoy the sixth book, but I wanted to see how the movie adaptation would turn out.

But, I went over to her house early to hang out. We rented Tales of Vesperia and spent all day playing it. @.@ Yuri is even more amazing in HD.

“Remember? Prepare to die, eggbear!”

One of the best lines in the game, said in his lovely falsetto voice, when mocking Karol XD. There are many other awesome things in that game, but I shall avoid posting them to avoid giving spoilage 8D.

So, after playing Tales of Vesperia all day (literally), we prepared to go wait in the extremely long line to go see the movie. It was really warm in line because they had us packed together like sardines ;o. We ended up with really good seats, though.

After two hours of waiting, there we are, sitting in our seats. The lights dim and the before-movie previews begin. Why? Oh why did they have to include the New Moon trailer?! It was scary >.<, but happy and elating when Edward said he was leaving Bella. *cackles maniacally*

Fast forward 15 minutes and the movie begins for real. It was quite strange…the whole movie was filled with light hearted jokes (not like the book at all) and then when it comes to Harry going with Dumbledore to get the Hocrux, it’s like someone flips a switch. It suddenly becomes angsty and they pile it on really thick; I left the movie disappointed. It seems like they cut out important scenes of the movie, made new events, and the ending seemed rushed to me.

Oh well, let’s hope Deathly Hallows part 1 and 2 will be better. Deathly Hallows…that was slightly disappointing, as a book, as well. The epilogue ruined the story for me. Albus Severus Potter? Blegh. Ginny and Harry? Yuck!

That’s it for now! This is a simple otaku signing off! *tries to be all news reporter-like*

Calculus

Zomg, I have a calculus test to fail tomorrow. Everyone wish me luck? I’m horrible with Max/min questions…and it’s been forever since we covered the other stuff that’s going to be on the test.

I really don’t like calculus…Mr Meloche is cool, the class is not.

In other news, I’ve joined the Bowling team at Massey. My first game will be next Tuesday. I can’t wait. Hopefully, I won’t get too nervous and leave the alley without even trying it..

Edit: I just know I didn’t pass…ugh. .

Amazing Race 09/Kintaro Walks Japan

So my family and I finished watching the Amazing Race 09 today. It was amazing, the hippies won . Go BJ and Tyler!!!

After the Amazing Race, I was poking around into what they were doing now. I found out that Tyler had a documentary made about his travels in Japan in 2004. It’s super interesting 8D. People should check it out:

It nice to know that (Tyler anyways) is always that bright, cheerful ball of energy. The documentary is really amazing; the people are super nice and it’s so beautiful…Kintaro is amazing :O. Anyways, just felt I should post this while I remembered. XD

Until my next post:

TTOW!!!
