Things to watch out for at night: ipods & aliens

So I was surfing Youtube and I just remembered something that happened to me last week that I forgot to tell you people (like anyones reading this, but wtvr)

So its like 3 am, and I've just woken up for no reason that I can remember. I try to go back to sleep by turning over. A few minutes after atempting this, I see a flash. I look up and see my ipod flashing in it's iPod dock.

Dock is out to get you.

Anyways, I found this slightly odd seeing as I was neither controling it, nor was anything I was able to see.

After flashing every few seconds for a few more times, my first thought, like any other normal human's would be, was 'omg, aliens'.

At this point, I was a bit worried, like wondering if I was hallucinating.. cause WHY would it be flashing? While debating weither I should take the chance to get up and see what was wrong with it.. I hear a quiet BOOM in the background (coming from outside) and the little red light (on the side) flashes off.. now I was like "OMG OMG ALIENS!!" cause really, what else could it be?

So, I guess at some point I must have fallen asleep. And as it turned out, there was a storm and a transformer exploaded and that was why the ipod was flashing.. heh. Guess I overreacted.

EMMYS - 2007 THE BEST & WORST

So, you've seen the worst through my eyes. Now it is time: to see the BEST. WOOT.

So, I figured I'd to the ol' "Save the best for last" thing. So my favourite of the night will be last (no scrolling down & peeking ;] )


Lemme just say that reds and whites were IN this year.

Let's start with

Kristen Bell (from Veronica Mars) wearing Yigal Azrouel.


She looks great.


Next: Portia DeRossi (aka Ellen's girlfriend) in Azzaro





Next: Julia Louis-Dreyfus in Narciso Rodriguez

LOVE the colour. =D


Next: Helen Mirren


Common, I hope I look as good as she does when Im her age.

Next: Christina Aguliera in Valentino

She looks so fab. It could double as a wedding dress xD
(The one in the yellow ain't looking so hot tho =P )

Next: Mariska Hargitay (from Law & Order)


I love the simple black dressed, you can't go wrong with em (maybe someone should tell that to Hayden Panetiere and Vanessa Williams?)

But my absolute FAVOURITE of the night was:

-insert drumroll here-


Ali Larter! (from Heroes)




I love the colour, and it fits her perfectly.

Emmys 2007 - BEST & WORST

Hello, Peeps.

I did my homework last night, by watching the Emmys. Now, when I watch the Emmys, or anyaward show, the only thing I care about is what people are wearing. Screw the awards for best actor.. I have the Best and Worst of the Emmys '07.

So, I figured we'd do the worst first, because best for last, eh?

So starting off - now, there's no particular order, cause, well they're all equaly bad- *Drum roll, please*

Miss. Cheerleader - Hayden Panettiere.

Ohh. It's so sad, because she's so pretty.

Hayden's Marc Bouwer ensemble is actually a pretty nice colour, and minus the garbage bag/curtain she's got wrapped around her, it'd be a nice dress.


Next: Vanessa Williams.

How many pecocks do you think she had to pluck to make this number?

And, next: Jenna Fischer

A "gorgeous" emsemble. It's very... a la tablecloth.

En, suite:
Laura Bennett.

Unfortunately, she forgot to follow her own advice (dress like you mean it)

(& doesn't that guy in the background look like Nigel Lithgow?)

Next: Felicity Huffman

Now, I do actually like the dress. But only a few can pull it off, and she's not one of them..

My first thought when I saw her in it was "Oh, what a nice advertisement for anorexia"

Next: Becki Newton


Oh God, another friggin mermaid dress. With lace. This is one case where two negatives definately don't make a possitive

Next: Marie Louis Parker

=( She looked soo cute sitting down (seriously not joking)
But when you buy a dressed is supposed to look good, standing up too, eh?


The bottom half of her dress looks like a:

a) curtain

b) tablecloth

c)lamp shade cover

Next: Elizabeth Perkins

Ooh. The insults are endless. It's like she dressed up to go on a picnic, or to a ...farm, and then decided "Hey! Let's go to the Emmys!"


I think those are the main ones.. Now, there are a few honorable mentions, that didn't quite make the cut.

Let's start with Paula Abdul. Aside from the piece of fabric that screams "Look at my right boob!" it really isn't bad. Nice, white, clean. (But can anyone say 'Janet Jackson'?)

The next honorable mention is: Minnie Driver (heh, funny name ;D )

Now, the dress doesn't look bad on her, its just the colour, I think it's too bright. (Look at the guy I circled, he's like "AHHH! My EYES!")

Tomarrow, ill be doing my list for best dressed, and also any other worst dressed that I forgot.

Later!

Gym Class Heroes

Heyah.


So a few funny things happened this week.

First. On Tuesday, we had gym. Now, I dunno if you've ever seen a bunch of girls jumping around trying to catch a football..but lemme tell you, its hilarious.

So two teams are "playing" football in the gym, on girl manages to catch the football, runs for about 3 seconds before she trips over her own feet.. BUT while she was tripping, she still managed to hold onto the football! And where would she land? Right in the..N ZONE!!

She banged into the wall and everything.. it was hilarious - the highlight of my day.

--

Yesterday, Friday, I had gym again and we're still doing football. The weather was nice, so we were forced by the gym teacher to play football outside.
Now, lets get this out of the way, my team sucks. On my team we have:
a goth, a rugby player, a coughfatcough person, and this girl who hurt her ankle and therefore can't run. Oh and there's me. Sure I'm not horrible at sports, but it was like 10 am, and I saw no point in running for ball that I probably wouldn't catch anyway. Now, we were playing against this team that wasn't so great either, but they were still way better than we were.

SOOO. A girl on the opposite team (the one that tripped into the Nzone & got a touchdown) is basically the only one playing.. So Miss. Gym-teacher notices this and says to another player on the team (let's call her "Nash"):

"Hey!! Nash!! Help her out!!"

So Nash, at this point is thinking of an excuse.. now I've heared some great excuses. Everything from "My dog ate it" to "I'm late cause I didn't know the bell was going to ring".

So after about 3 minutes of thinking Nash says:

"I, uh, I had an..itch"

I laughed for 5 minutes after I heared that & I'm still laughing.


So that is basically all of the funny stories of this week.. until next time.

Tash

This is why I rock

Hey

So, I was surfing youtube (a favourite hobby of mine) and I happend to come accross this video:




It rocks.. (hehe)

The movie clips are from Hot Fuzz, which is one of the best movies ever.


**Oh, an PS, if you haven't seen the movie yet, I recomend you don't watch theses videos, cause they show scenes from the end of the movie also

Im gonna go do more youtube-surfing now. LAter!

(five minutes later)

OMG. I found another video, but this one's cooler (for me, at least)

Linkin Park & Hot Fuzz : IN ONE VIDEO = OMG AWESOMENESS!!

It's a bit of a sappy video, but I laughed the whole way through it xP
(& I can hear Katie laughing at the 'cutlery' right now, and Kris laughing at the 'Cuddle Monkey' hehe..)

Here's another one: (again, its a bit of a spoiler)

Its all the best scenes put together in a "non-swearing-version" which, in my opinion, makes it even funnier. (Try to read lips ;)




Enjoy!

Alloha for now.

Boringness

I had a bad day today. My classes were:

Commercial Art
History
Math
French

Let's start with Commercial Art. At the beginning of the class, the teacher said we were going to use the computers that class. We didn't. And did you know there's a program just for brainstorming?! (like making the bubbles and putting your ideas in them. Who buys that?! Me and Vikal played I spy again. I won 2 out of 2.

In history our teacher told us the grossest story. I won't tell you now but if you want to hear it, let me know. Also there's this guy that has to do with history and his name is Magellan. The teacher made this joke about those "gellin'" insoles. She was like "Are you gellin'? No, not gellin', I'm Ma-Gellin' ". Hahaha, well you had to be there.

Then was math. Oh man, math. Boringest class ever aside from french.

French. Boring class #1.

Yup so that was my day. Full of boringness and I spy.

Jorge (or Juan)

Well yesterday I didn't feel like writing cause I didn't have much to say but I will include yesterday and today in this blog.

So yesterday's bus ride to school wasn't eventful but funny things happened. There is this one Sec 5er guy who sits behind me and apparently he has been playing a Pokemon game on his game boy for a while now (he got sucked into the conspiracy) and so I heard the Pokemon tunes from behind me and I knew he was playing again (I even heard a 'GO MUDKIP' (which is a Pokemon)). ... Then all of a sudden, the guy screamed "I WON YOU GUYS" to the whole bus. Then one of the other guys in the back got up and went to ask the bus driver what his name was. (I thought his name was Jorge (pronounced Hor-hay)) The bus driver told him that he would tell everyone the next day.

Nothing else interesting happened that day.

This is a Mudkip. Cute eh?

Now for today...

I had my first history class today. My first impression of my teacher is that she didn't know how to put on make-up. She probably looks 10 years older than she actually is. But she's nice enough. Her name is Mrs.Clarke. By the way: I have History in English this year. I think I might prefer it in French. She gave us lots of home work for the first class.

I also got lots of home work in French and Math, I have all three (History, French and Math) classes and home work due tomorrow. ugh.

My English class was interesting enough though. My teacher was talking about metaphors and she said "You're a turnip" to Sacha (this annoying kid in my class). She was explaining how this metaphor wasn't a good one because it didn't mean anything. And Sacha says "what's a turnip?!" Haha he doesn't know what a turnip is. He thought she was insulting him. Then my teacher points to Chelsea and says "you're a tomato" and Chelsea started cracking up and turned as red as a tomato (I think my english teacher has magical powers). So everyone was staring at her and it just made her more red. So the teacher (who is the soccer coach) says "ok everyone, stop staring at her, I need her for soccer tryouts in 20 minutes. She needs her oxygen, let her breath". So then this kid named Daniel says "Too much oxygen can kill you". The teacher was like "umm thank you for that random fact".


So anyways, on the bus ride the guy asked the bus driver what his name was again and the bus driver (with his french-mexican accent) "I will tell you my name but it is not my real name. My name is Mr.Cool" (ha!). So the guy says "But what's your real name?" and the bus driver says "OK, my name is Juan" (pronounced ccchhhhhouuaan). For some reason I thought it was Jorge.

Yuppers so that's my 2 days worth of rambling. I'll tell you more next time.

First day back! Featuring banshees and evil teachers...

Hello Bloggers! Today was my first day of school, as you probably know, and I almost left you hanging there for a second just because I am so EXHAUSTED. But, Kristen made me swear on my CSI merchandise, so I decided to type up a little something before diving into bed and falling into a (hopefully) dreamless slumber.

So, we’ll start my day from the time that I woke up (6 AM!). I’d just like to say one significant fact, which is that I was completely frozen. I didn’t have my window open or anything, so I think it was just the shock that in just a couple short hours I would be thrust back into my own personal hell. Luckily, I had my new hair to keep me company, since I dyed it yesterday and it’s now tri-colored. Perchance I shall post some pictures up soon? We’ll see.

Anyway, before you read any further, you should know one thing…I go to a private all-girls catholic school. “Ah,” you say, “that definitely explains your weird tendencies and random blogs.” Why, yes, yes it does. In fact, every single weird thing about me was a direct result of going to my school. (That was just a gigantic lie, but let’s roll with it…)
So, I got to school early because my dad drove me, usually I take the train and the city bus since it’s downtown. But, it was peaceful, and nice, and I had time to check my class list and find my locker and everything. And then…the other girls started coming in, and the hallways were filled with so many shrieks and yells and “Oh My Gods!” that I think I’ve become permanently deaf in one ear. This is either a blessing, or a curse, I seriously can’t decide.

So, since I got to school early and was basically one of the first people in my homeroom, I took advantage of that and got the best seat! It was right in the middle, right beside the window so the light came in and made my hair shine nicely. So after depositing my books, I finally locate some friends and we went around laughing and looking at new things and showing off my hair and – oh, traumatizing grade 7s. It’s a skill.
But, karma seems to have bitten me in the ass at this point, because I go back up to my homeroom (a bit late, because of my fooling around) and some evil girl, let’s call her Mary, has stolen my seat beside the window! Even though my books were in it and everything. So I confront her, and she gives me a sob story about already having to change seats twice and yadda yadda, I’m an idiot, yadda yadda, I have no friends. So finally I just get fed up of hearing her voice and give her my seat, which leaves me with the only seat left in the room, front row center, right in front of the teacher’s desk. I thought I would die. But, I’m a soldier; I will grin and bear it.

My stupid substitute homeroom teacher (who the hell has one of those on their first day?) wrongly accuses me of wearing eye makeup. Which is not allowed for the grade 10s this year, the opposite of all the other previous years…it figures.
I grin and bear it.
She lectures on about boring rules and reads the agenda rules, making a small emphasis on the rule which states “no unnatural hair colors”, and glancing in my direction.
I grin and bear it.
Then, I’m finally free…and now I’m just yawning and about to fall asleep on the keyboard. So I’m sorry to keep you hanging like this but I’ll continue tomorrow.Haha Kristen, this is something, isn’t it?

Tales of tenth grade (jour numero 2 & 3)

Heya Bloggers. This is Tash, as if you didn't know that.



So, second day of grade 10. Fun, fun, fun.

Nothing good happened. The end.


-Day 3-

Well, lets start before that.. as of last night, I have confirmed my theory that I can't walk out of my house without seeing someone from school.

I had to go to Bureau En Gros to get more school supplies.

In the 10 minutes that I was in the store I saw:

-New kid from history
-Girl from science
- "SAQ" (Theres a story behind the nick-name ;D Ill be sure to tell it soon)
- Bavanjeet (Katie'll tell you a story about this "very special (or creepy) person ;)

I also can't go to (as of today):

-Dagwoods (cause SAQ works there)
-IGA (either of them) (because EVERYONE that graduates from my school works there..i swear, its like a LPHS reunion when you walk in)
-The Canadiens hockey mechandise store near the food court at Fairview (cause this girl -that everyone calls Barbie [cause she's as fake/plastic/blah as one] - works there)
-La Belle Province

I think thats about it... and of course I can't go to Bureau En Gros..

So Im starting to think that maybe I should just deal with having to see all these freaks, cause, quite frankly, Im running out of disguises and theres not always an available tree or bolder to hide behind (or under).

So back to the school thing. I hate my bus driver.. she started taking a new route so now I miss like half of Reba. I swear that I could walk home from school faster.. like has she even heared of the gas petal?

So thats all the stories for today..theres probably more, but I forget them.
I have to do math homework now. -.-

Nice.

Sec 4, Day 2

Hello Bloggers! It was my second day of grade 10.

Today I met my Commercial Art teacher. She has a lisp and in her mouth it looks like she has some strange retainer, but I think she was wearing whitening strips (haha). She talks all professional-like and no one understands her. (We probably know more about computers than her). So to summarize, I think this class will be fun, but I don't really like her.

I also had math today. We took 3 pages of notes and did work. My partner is Vikal, he's hilarious. The whole class we played "I Spy". He told me to find something blue and it ended up being the teacher's eyeshadow (Am I good or what?)

After that was the bus ride home. There were about 5 people too many on our bus so they were all standing at the front, because there were no seats. The bus driver told everyone who wasn't on our bus to get out. No one did. The principal came and checked every one's bus passes. By this time, all the other buses had already left. Every day, we were getting to school late so the principal told everyone to go to their bus stops 15 minutes earlier from now on (ugh). The bus driver held his hands up like he was guilty of something and said "It's not my fault" with his heavy Mexican/French accent. Then someone yelled "CAN WE HURRY UP, I'M GONNA MISS REBA!" (Reba is on at 4:00, so this guy must watch it)

So anyways, hopefully I will change buses because mine is over-populated. I will miss my funny bus driver though. Here's a picture of what he looks like with his sun glasses that no one can take him seriously in.

A guy that looks like my bus driver

Well the guy in this picture looks better, but whatever, it's just a random guy I found.

So check out the blog tomorrow for Katie's post about her first day at school. :)
