Now that the swimming season is over, there is the swimming banquet to look forward to. And boy am I anticipating this one. One phrase seems to summarize what I'm doing this year and that is "sticking it to The Man." It's so fun taunting Kalie over what I'm going to do. She thinks I'm going to wear a dress, but I'm actually going to wear a green tuxedo (hopefully). I do not tell her this. I tell her my outfit is a secret/surprise. I have a date to the dance. When telling her (and the other girls around me) that I had asked someone and "they" agreed, the girls wouldn't stop asking me who "he" was. I'm sorry, but Jessica doesn't have a Y chromosome. I do not tell Kalie this. I tell her my date is a secret/surprise. It's hilarious. I suspect they'll bug me about it until the banquet. Stick it to The Man, yo.
This weekend is the TAME competition. I'm pretty excited. Said date will also be there. w00+
Next weekend I have that art contest which I haven't finished the entry for. I hope Caitlee actually comes.
Weekend after that is that math competition said date convinced me to sign up for.
Grab the book closest to you at this particular moment.
For me, that would be Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner.
Go to page 123, and write three sentences from it starting with the 5th sentence down the page:
Many other sentences, especially for violent crime, were lengthened. The total effect was dramatic. By 2000, more than two million people were in prison, roughly four times the number as of 1972.
For the past couple days I've been watching all the AMV Hell videos on youtube. Here's a sampling of some of the clips from AMV Hell 3. This particular person really seemed to like the Azumanga Daioh ones, but I assure you, there plenty of variety in the entire thing.
