Just after it snowed

Tuesday 3^rd February 2009

Hey everyone

It snowed a few days ago. Me and Cinty had a snow ball fight and it was tones of fun. But they don’t let use throw them at school. I understood why when I saw a girl with a broken arm. She’d slipped on the ice when she was playing in a snow ball fight. They really need to be more careful. I remember last time the hospitals where full of people who had slipped on the ice and either broken bones or sprained something. An odd thing happed on the news tonight. They said that 2 boys, aged 11 and 12 went missing like 11 years ago and they where found only a short while ago. They where taken away from their Mother when they where little (by their Father) and they’ve all been living in the mourntains in a little…shed. When they finally where reunited with their Mother they said “We want to go back and live with Dad and live in the mountains!” WOW! I understand why they would do that though. I mean no school for 11 years! They must be pretty dumb… a_+b =…. BANG *head blown off by pressure*. I made a little comic today. It has me and my mate Jeffa in it and just a random teacher that is called Miss Charles. And no I don’t know anyone who is called Miss Charles. I only have about 23 more days here. That isn’t very long (I know that time can go really fast). I kind of got a crush on a boy in my class. His name is Maxons. He has blonde hair and is cute. He was talking to me today and I was just nodding and then when he asked me to repeat what he just said I was like “HUH?” And everyone was laughing! J . I like running around in the cold cause it warms me up and then I don’t feel so cold. School is going good. I am understanding a little more everyday, and everyone is good. Well almost everyone. I mean you get the occasional idiot that thinks that he can beat me at mouthing off (in either English or French). Then it usally turns to violence and EVERYONE knows how I love a good fight. I’ve never punched someone in the face or kneed anyone in the balls before *evil grin* but there’s a first time for everything! But I won’t break any bones. I don’t want to do that. That’s why I don’t hit ‘em. I am worried that I am going to break them. There are some really adorable boys in my grade but they can get really annoying. The one in my class just loves to hit me over the back of my head, and no matter what I do he never stops. But he is cute and Jacinta thinks he’s REALLY cute, so I can’t kill him properly. There’s 2 more cute kids, both are in Jacinta’s class, and their names are Ronan and Matture. Ronan has a twin that is taller than him, but he is actually a few minutes older. He had brown hair and brown eyes, a big nose, and a narrow face with sticky-outty cheek bones. Matture has blonde hair and yellow eyes! He has a little nose and his hair is always in a spike, and his teeth are a little crocked. Plus his voice is really shrill cause it’s cracking (even cuter!!). When I was in Science we where all quiet and I had just turned on the lights (I am right near the door and that’s where the lights switches are) when there was a knock at the door. It opened and there was Yanik and Matture. Apparently I am supposed to be in love with Yanik but he is SO not cute, sexy or hot. He is like a pig the is on women’s legs!! And he had a huge zit that he popped and then it was all red and when Jacinta told me this I said he was a married Indian women! Not that there’s anything wrong with the red dot. In fact I think it’s… mysterious, not to mention it brings out their eyes. Ok back to the class, Yanik and Matture said something to the class. Stumbled and then laughed, we all laughed too. Then when they had finished Matture said goodbye and just as he was about to close the door he saw me and shrieked BYE! I just giggled and said bye back. He’s just TOO CUTE!!!! But he drives Jacinta up the wall, like Tomah (that guy who likes to hit me in the back of the head) does to me. I miss Australia a lot but I will be home soon. I got hit by loads of snow balls, thanks to the boys who like to torture me! My nails are getting longer so now I can claw at them. Other than that nothing much has happened. I am finishing off EVIL GUENIUS again and hopefully I will fully understand it this time (everyone has code names and it gets confusing!) and if I don’t then I’ll just have to read it again!!! But I better go to bed cause Jacinta is really tired. We got a new internet place that is in the tourist buorow that is just down the street from our house so that should make things a lot easier when it comes to email!! LOVE YOU ALL

P.S. Just below all this is the 1^st and 2^nd bits to a song that I like!

Hey there Delilah what’s it like in New York City?

I’m a thousand miles away but tonight you look so pretty

Yes you do

Time square can’t shine as bright as you

I swear it’s true

Hey there Delilah don’t you worry about the distance

I’m right here if you get lonely give this song another listen

Close your eyes

Listen to my voice it’s my disguise

I’m by your side

BORNING DAY

Saturday 31^st January 2009

Hey everyone

Nothing interesting is happening. I’m in Maths and I’m bored shit-less (even though it’s my favourite class here) so I decided to write for my blog. Things here are cold. It’s about -3 degrees outside. Sue and me are gonna go swimming and then I should be doing Internet, but I’m not sure. I got another letter from Mum yesterday. She said it’s raining a lot and the lawn is basically up to her eye-balls, so if I was at home I would probably get lost in the grass. Jeffery also sent me a letter (FINALLY!!!) It was unpaid mail though so it took longer to get here. He wrote his on the 16^th and Mum wrote hers’ on the 23^rd, that’s 7 days difference and they both got here at the same time! Jeff said it rained for the first time in 2 years and now everything’s green. Here, if it rains, the water freezes before it can be sucked into the ground (more like cement). I’m looking out the window and the crows seem to be excited about something. About half an hour ago we had Music. I got scarred cause they had a test and I had to do it too. We are singing a song and me and my friend didn’t have enough time so we’re on next week. So here’s the song:

Jolie Louise

Ma jolie how do you do

Mon nom est Jean Guy Thibautt Leroux

I come from East of Gatineau

My name is Jean Guy ma jolie

J’ai maison á la fontaine where we can live

If you marry me

Une belle maison á la fontaine where we can live

You and me, oh Louise

Ma jolie Louise

Ma jolie Louise

So now I gotta go home so I can have something to eat. Miss everyone and I am having fun. I’ll be home soon!! LOVE YOU ALL

Another Day In France

Vie De Classe

Well it’s about -3 degrees outside and about 20 or something in this classroom. The boy opposite me just poked his tongue out at me but I know he’s just pissed, at this class. Not surprised. In vie de classe all we do is talk about how the class is doing. Like who is being bullied by who and who is being a bitch. Nothing new. The teacher was shocked when I told her we didn’t have classes like this in Australia. I mean we have councilling where you spill your guts to a complete stranger, but we don’t have the WHOLE class there to listen to you. Lots of kids are still staring at my Aussie tattoos that I wore for Australia day, yesterday. Today I took my left ears’ stud out and put in my feather ear ring. Remember the one that I wore when you, Shan and me went fishing Mum? They’ve also been pointing at that too. When I was in China I bought a shit-load of jewellery. I bought a necklace that had a metal ball with a smaller ball inside it. Mum thought it was great and I am wearing that now too. Now they’re talking about me in the class. Asking what affect I have on them and all that shit. Translation, I’m screwed. Not that I have done anything bad. I try to get a long with all of them but they can get a little annoying. There’s loads of talking. I think they like me, I HOPE they like me. I had a good lunch yesterday. This packet/pocket thing that was battered/fried. The inside was egg and a yummy sauce. The pocket itself was made out of cows’ leg, I think. That was companied with steamed (canned veggies that have been heated) vegetables that tasted alright. We had my 2^nd favourite desert. My favourite is a little tub (like a yougert tub) of chocolate moose with whipped cream on top. It’s called a Dannette. My 2^nd favourite is a chocolate eclier. YUM!!! Like chocolate moose that is surrounded by a puff pastry that pretty much desolves in your mouth. And to top it all off it has chocolate icing on the top. Mouth watering! Other than that nothing is happening and I better get ready to go to my next class.

1:22p.m. A few seconds into Science

Ok so lunch has just finished. I’m 113 pages into the book CARRIE written by Stephen King. Very good book. This’ll be my 2^nd time, reading it, and I now understand more. Mum says she read the book and watched the movie (I think) and she said it was ok (I think!). She also said Stephen King was in a car accident and his writing changed. She said she read/watched Christine and she liked it, but when she read Diary of a Cannibal she hated it. Christine was before the car crash and Diary of a Cannibal was after. I haven’t seen or read either of them so I wouldn’t know. I have read Carrie and watched the 1974 movie and the 2007 remake. I’ve also watched Pet Semetary and Pet Semetary 2. Both where good. I remember reading/watching something about the little boy who played Gage. I think he became a famous child actor but when he got to his teens he started to experiment with drugs and he died in his early 20’s, I think. At lunch we had a similar dish to the one that we had in my… second week of school here. It’s like a beef stew and it also has noodles. They’re like the ones you get in a Chinese/Tai take away box. Not too bad I liked yesterdays more. They’re having a Science test today so that’s why I am not participating.

LOVE
