No title.

Today my holidays come to an end, if you count the weekend as part of the school year.

So I'm getting as much out of it as possible, which can only mean one thing: I'm sitting here in my pajamas eating frozen blueberries and watching anime. Well, obviously I'm not reading and watching at the same time,but I was watching until very recently. I got up nice and early(ish) full of purpose to go out and, later on, do a bit of blogging, but I suddenly found myself at the computer at three o'clock and figured, oh well.

On to the news, I finished my registration and "welcome week" at the Prepa (High School, but from now on, it's called Prepa. Got it? Good.) and now I am officially a student of the UNAM, yay! This means that now I have my student ID that lets me do all sorts of cool things, like get into the school through the door and not by jumping a fence. Not that I've ever done that. Also, now I get discounts on lots of stuff, like museums and the movies. I mean, I always had a right to those discounts, but my student card thingy from secundaria was massive, so it was a real pain to carry around.

And I lost it.

Anyway, an interesting thing I discovered about the student IDs is that they taste absolutely disgusting, and the taste lingers in your mouth and is really, really hard to get out. Which is actually why I'm eating blueberries.

Moving on, yesterday I bought a really pretty wall scroll for my (white, ugly, plain, boring)wall. It's got the four houses of Hogwarts (from Harry Potter. Duh.) on it. And it's pretty. And I love it. And it was really expensive, so it'd better last quite a few years. Or somebody might get hurt.

Eww, the blueberries didn't work too well. So I gues I'll.... have some more!

See ya.

Give me a B!

Doodee doodee doooooo....

I'm bored. b o r e d e r o b

B...reakfast today was cereal
O...n my bed I sleep at night, or whenever I feel like it
R... is a pirate's favourite letter (get it? "arr"?
E...very day I eat more Nutella than I should (great stuff, great stuff)
D...ownstairs my sister yells and slams the fridge door

This blog is going downhill. You hear me? Downhill.

I was bored yesterday, too, so I watched the second hand tick its way around a clock for five minutes, just because I could.
Oh, no, wait. Yesterday I played board games and watched a movie with my cousins.
Then it must have been another day.

And another time, I satayed in bed until, like, two o'clock.

It's pathetic, I need school to pepper up my existence and make it worthwhile ( "make my existence worthwhile"? God! I sound like an emo teen! Or just a teen)

Hyper-ness

I got the results for my entrance exam today. You know how much I got? No? Want me to tell you? Yes? ...no? You don't care? Oh.

Well, anyway, and merely and simply for the record, I got 118 out of 128.
And for reference, the average was 64.


AHAHAHAHAHA!!!


Sorry.

On another note, two guys tied in first place, both of them with 127. They're both going to UNAM schools (but not to mine, so that's ok :D )

Well. That's it. I'm not a secondary student anymore.
I graduated yesterday.

Side note:
Ughhh, I feel all woozy because I ate too much for luch; I had about half a box of crackers with cream cheese, and veggie mix, and fish with more veggies, and a coffee, and a nectarine. And three popsicles. I can feel my skin stretching to form a little belly to accommodate the food :S
---

Right. I graduated. Uh.. there's not much to tell, actually. I can't seriously say I'm going to miss my school all that much; actually, the last few weeks I was getting pretty sick of it.

I see London, I see France...

I just had to write this real quick...

M. E. Serralde, read this and die of envy:

My sister went on a trip to Europe on behalf of her school, along with some of her classmates. She called today; she went to Paris and they saw Emma Watson!

Apparently they were just walking around on the street and they were a few meters apart; Emma looked at their group and smiled.

And then one of the guys in her group went up next to her as she looked at a painting and said, "Ah! C'est Picasso, eh?". She looked at him all, "Ummmm...."

Firedog


I was just looking out the window a few minutes ago, and saw my dog sleeping by the door. I couldn't resist and took a picture of her; she looks like the Firefox logo. Sort of. In my mind.

I wrote my entrance exam

My mother was bugging me to blog about my exam, so I might as well.

I mean, inspiration struck.

On Sunday I went off and wrote my entrance exam! Yay!
Actually, it was WAY easier than I thought it would be. Everybody in my class was studying like mad, and on the last few days they were quizzing each other on stuff I didn't know anything about ("Which is the most important producer of tomatoes?" "National or international?" ...huh?) and running around muttering the different phases of mitosis and meiosis to themselves.
I mean, yeah, I studied, but not about tomatoes. Just general stuff.
And you know? It worked out pretty well.
The day of the exam, I went to the place where I was to write it with my mom and my sister. My mom was all nervous, "Are you sure you have your pencils? And your eraser? Okay, okay." "Hey, do you have Kleenex?" "Are you feeling fine?" "So, which one is meiosis?" "What islands belong to the U.S.???" "Nervous? Eheeee!!!!". I overdid it (a bit :D, sorry, mom)
So I went, and lined up, and went to the classroom, and registered, and sat down and waited (and waited and waited and waited) for 3 o'clock to poke around the corner.
Finally, it came, and we all got our little exam booklets and answer sheets (There are ten versions, 'A' through 'J'; I got 'H') and started solving. at first I was sooo nervous, I was trembling like mad (and I found out, I have a nervous tick! It's on my left leg! Hurrah!) and couldn't really hold the pencil still. But then I started to read the exam and relaxed a lot, especially since I got Math first. I was all, "Hey! this is easy!" and by question number nine, I remember clearly, I had the urge of standing up and yelling, "Hey! I'm writing my exam! This is fun!" so I did.
Just kidding.
I swallowed the urge and stayed put.
By question 15, I realized that I'd had a little voice in my head going "Extra 21st chromosome, Down Syndrome! Extra 21st chromosome, Down Syndrome!" over and over, until I told it to shut up. And whaddaya know, question 49 was:

Down Syndrome is produced by:

A) Yaddayaddayadda
B) Your dog
C) You wanna watch a wierd anime? FLCL
D) The presence of all or part of an extra 21st chromosome
E) Chayotes make me puke

Or something like that. Anyway, I was all, "Hey! Cool!"

Anyway, I finished the exam all happy, and asked one of my friends, who happened to write it in the same room,
"How'd it go?"
"Uh... so-so. You?"
Great!!! "It was fine, I guess. I got stumped in that question about the prehispanic leader whose name means 'one who speaks loud'. I went with tlatoani, you?"
