My teachers aren't like that, but say that you want to be like JFK and get a gentleman's C at Harvard. Halloween was postponed until today because of the Hurricane. Which made really stressed out because, you know, Nanowrimo. But then I woke up at six in the morning and wrote 1,004 words. Such is life.

Man, I'm sorry, Red.
Spanish class took a rather wrong turn today when Z began insulting Obama in Spanish, leading to a half-Spanish, half-English, very loud argument about our presidential candidates. We didn't get much Spanish done.

I am feeling incredibly uplifted right now because I've got Vienna Teng's "Blue Caravan" playing right now- which is exquisite, like all Vienna Teng.
I am going to my grandmother's farm today- three hundred acres of woods and fields in the heart of North Carolina. I can't wait.
I want the election to be over so bad. I can't even say it.

Yeah. I hate all these ads and how the politics are dividing every one.

ALL THE NEWS IS ABOUT ELECTIONS. MOST OF US KNOW WHO WE'RE GOING TO VOTE FOR, PEOPLE. Sorry, I've been using capitals a lot.

Jah, I don't know why Obama and Romney think they're really going to change people's minds now. Or maybe not so much change their minds as convince them to vote at all. I know lots of people who are very conservative minded but don't vote often. They say Hispanic voter turnout could determine the election.
There are likely people who are still undecided. The candidates each hope to win those votes.

Does anybody have any magic crystal ball prediction on who's going to win the popular vote? Or whether the Electoral and the Popular votes are going to split?
(November 3, 2012 - 7:09 am)
Nope, sorry, I left my crystal ball in Narnia.

That's a good thing. Because I don't know to go with what I want or what is most likely going to happen. Which is the same thing.
On another note, we had a substitute gym teacher. DISASTER. Okay, we go outside. Does attendance, mispronounces half the names and forgets a kid. We play ultimate frisbee, and the field is puny. We argue about which set of cones is the side line. Someone gets the teacher. The following conversation ensues:
Teacher: This is the endzone.
Einstein: We know where the endzone is, we want to know where the side line is.
Teacher: This is the endzone.
Everyone: The endzone's not the side line. We want to know where the side line is.
Teacher: What's a side line?
E**: The side line is the line on the side of the field.
Teacher: This is the endzone.
And on and on in the fashion.

At lunch, my Hetalia fangirl friends (just about all of my friends at lunch who are girls) were naming everyone Hetalia characters. I ended up being Switzerland, of all countries. The reason was I was looking at a picture of various Hetalia characters. There was a caption under Switzerland that said something along the lines of how he didn't love anyone, which caused me to go into one of my "Love is pointless" rants (which my friends have probably memorized. I like ranting.). Thus, they named me Switzerland. I ended up accidentally cinching the title by eating my friend's veggie chips and telling her after she told me to go buy my own: Well, I don't want to buy my own. That's too expensive. And you never eat them anyway. I don't want to see good food go to waste. It's also good money going to waste. I can't help it if I am a cheapskate by nature. And said friends started laughing really hard. And saying that Switzerland is really cheap.
And guess who my supposed little sister is? The guy with the deepest voice in the school. I don't know, I can't really picture "Titania" in a bow.

I made enemies with my dishwasher yesterday. I loaded the dishwasher, my mom and I went for a walk, and when we came back tendrils of foam were all across the kitchen floor. Heehee. I had used the wrong kind of soap. And inside the dishwasher was stuffed to the gills with soap. It was semi-funny.

I served geriatric homo sapiens turkey to the third power today!

As you can tell by my location, it's show week. Which is very exciting. Except my high school likes late night rehearsals and three ginormous set pieces they trust teenagers to move in five minutes. So I'm losing sleep and have no time for anything and I'm just stressed. I hate that stress that comes with a play.
Before you people ask, it's Noises Off and I'm on tech crew.

My condolences. A cupcake to sustain you (yes, Listening Daisy did coin this.):
