slumberThe Good
I lost four days of my life helping organise a national debate tournament that my debate organisation FRIGGIN WON. Seriously. That made everything (including viewflist=240 and going to net cafes at 3 in the morning to do papers) worth it.
I just found out I could play DVDs on my computer! The reason I thought I couldn't was that I'd tried only once before, but it wouldn't work. So, yes. :D
There are other things, too. Can't remember. OH! Watching A Series of Unfortunate Events and making two Jude Law headers. :P
AND!!! Parents have agreed to apply for hosting a Belgian boy. I tried to convince them of it and had to talk with mother as the boy is not only gay, he's also an atheist and a vegetarian who smokes sometimes. If we get approved to host him, and I hope we do--I'm pretty close to the director of the organisation in charge of it--then he stays with us for a year starting July. *bounces*
The Bad
Bitterness. Am bitter. Bitter bitter bitter. I just need to say. Grrr.
You know I DESPISE it when I am USED. And I'm sure that wasn't the intention, but RAR, I still feel plenty used. AND I know it was ages ago, but still. There's a lot of frustration going on. What makes it worse is the negativity? Stems from my being an attention-whore, so. My fault, really.
Also. I passed up an opportunity to have a chance to go to London. :| Feel free to spork me, I SWEAR I'll try next year.
The Memey
Gacked from everyone else. Here are the ten things I've done that you most likely may not have.
Ten Things Meme
1. Chased the wrong car down the block and realising this only when I'd caught up with the car.
2. Gone to more countries with friends than with family before turning eighteen.
3. Almost been arrested in Thailand for playing cards in a bus.
4. Gone bathing in a room and spring full of naked girls. Regularly. For ten days.
5. Was in Singapore for a grand total of five minutes. Went back again in the same day, which is against the law.
6. Won a hundred thousand pesos in a raffle as solicitor's prize. My dad won the van.
7. Worn a Sailormoon outfit for school for three weeks.
8. Been within three feet of a celebrity I have a hideously big crush on, and gotten his autograph. (Ethan Zohn)
9. Spoken for seven minutes in a television show.
10. Fallen into a canal in Japan after making a wrong turn on a bike.

Well. If you could have gone and you didn't (and from what I see, not much reason) you are then rather stupid. I could have gone with you (in the luggage) and we could have had so much fun
stalking the royalty.Alas.
My dreams are dashed by your realisticness.
