But enough about the dark bilingual abyss. I have been practising for my French presentation tomorrow and I decided I needed a break. Since I haven't written for a while (I think?) I thought I would drop in and make sure everything's on the up and up.
Before my short term memory loss sets in:
DAVID: You will be pleased to know that I have eaten fewer cookies (though not entirely of my own accord).
It is healthy month at our res and I am slowly shrivelling away into nothingness. There's a challenge for every week. The first week was vegetarian, the second week was... I forget. I think it was no pop or no dessert. Yeah! It was no dessert. The third week was no pop. And this week is no carbs.
I think I'm dying! I miss cookies! I miss chocolate! I miss the salty, buttery goodness that is movie popcorn!
Luckily, this month is almost over and I will be compensating for my losses BIG TIME!
My accomplishments (they are few and far between in journalism, so I feel entitled to brag):
http://www.charlatan.ca/drupal/sites/default/files/issues/pdf/39_15.pdf Regardez le page 6! It was probably the most interesting story I've done so far.
I also got my profile assignment back from on Friday. I don't know if I've mentioned it. Basically, we were each assigned a person in our tutorial groups to interview, and we had to write a profile on them. It's supposed to be the biggest assignment of the year, worth 10%. And seeing as my marks are pitiful at best in all other aspects of this course, I was really hoping I wouldn't fail.
Well all my hard work paid off! Hallelujah, will wonders never cease? I got a 9/10.
To put it into perspective for the guys: This is not even like the new COD game to David. It's more like if David was being paid to play the COD game forever while being waited upon by dozens of Princess Leia's in gold bikinis (which, according to Friends, is an astronomical measure of greatness).
To put it into perspective for the girls: This isn't even like Rachel getting Jimmy Choo's for free. This is more like Jimmy Choo sending custom-made shoes for Rachel for free for the rest of her life.
I think I'll also throw this out there: I watched New Moon.
It was great! I'm not even a little embarrassed. I enjoyed that movie, hehe. I must say I'm a Jacob fan in movie. Edward is just pale and scrawny with hair in all the wrong places.
They have so much more money in New Moon and a new director so it's infinitely better than Twilight. Give it a chance! I was fully against watching it but I don't regret it at all. If anything, go to see shirtless Jacob! You will not be disappointed! Even if you're a guy, you should go and see what 30 extra pounds of pure muscle and 0% body fat will do to you.
But that's enough gushing. It's not really my style.
I suppose I should be getting back to work. Reading awaits! I have an appointment with the Fathers of Confederation. How riveting. Allow me to restrain my overflowing passion for the British North American Act. I float on clouds of joy at the signing of the Charlottetown Accord. Don't even get me started on the rebellion of 1837. Louis Riel, what a big hunk of man candy.
On that mouth-watering note, see you all at Christmas!
