5-I thought it looked different. I seemed to remember the old stickers being somewhat faded and tattered from old age. Thank you for settling the issue

(8) Faded, yes, though surprisingly, not tattered. (The car, on the other hand….) But there are other differences. Through the magic of digital editing, this sticker is considerably larger and has added text.

(10) ladygaladriel, the car bumper is mine, which HAWK saw when I was visiting in June. I do indeed have an actual Muse Academy bumper sticker, purchased from our online shop, Musery Loves Company. The one in the picture was digitally affixed, because mine is too faded and too small to show up well in the graphic. I also had to shift the Muses around a little in order to add the “My child is an honor student” line.

16-Well, since everyone is smart, you’d have to be much smarter than a normal honor student to be an honor student at MA. Either that, or almost everyone would be an honor student, so it wouldn’t really mean much if you said that you were an honor student.

A question of my own: If everyone at MA is an honor student, do they need to say that they’re honor students? Because, basically what the term means is that you’re smarter than most of the other students at your school. If everyone is as smart as you are, you’re not an honor student, because to be an honor student, you have to be smarter than everyone else.

If there were a real Muse Academy, I probably wouldn’t be an honors student anymore, just a regular one, haha. There are some very smart people on here.

Doctor Who is a British TV show produced by the BBC. The Doctor is an alien time traveler, a Time Lord, one of the last of his race. His nemisis are daleks (exterminate!) which (according to the intro info I got from someone) are mostly his nemisis because he keeps annoying them. He can regenerate (read: excuse to have different actors play him if one leaves the show. There have been ten Doctors so far I think. He usually has some sort of companion because it is lonely being the Doctor. He travels in a Tardis (or is it TARDIS, I’m not sure) which outwardly appears to be a blue phone booth. I know someone here at college who has a paper on her door that looks like a Tardis. it is great.

(44) Most of my favorite Photoshop books and magazines are published in England, hence tutorials on various techniques, particularly those involving metallics, often feature Daleks — without a hint of explanation as to what they are.

I always wonder how many American readers scratch their heads in befuddlement. Though I suppose the Photoshop-geek populace may comprise a higher proportion of Doctor Who enthusiasts than the population at large.

Somewhere on the Internet I once found a pattern for knitters to recreate The Scarf.

I also found a knitting pattern, randomly, for a recreation of some robot from Doctor Who? I don’t have the foggiest idea who it might be, but it was quite cute, the little plush robot.

My sleep schedule is seriously messed up right now. Yesterday I fell asleep from 1pm-5pm, mostly because I wasn’t feeling well. Then, the extra four hours of sleep I’d already had, plus my desire to read the three Twilight books I had to read now that I finally had a chance to, meant that I didn’t get to sleep until 6am. Yes. 6am. And I finished both New Moon and Eclipse in that time period, thank you very much.

So, anyways, when I finished Eclipse I decided that I had better get some sleep, because I assumed that my mom would be waking me up in a few hours to go to the Labor Day pancake breakfast out at the lake like we’d been planning, and I’d much rather have two hours of sleep then none. Luckily for me, though, my parents decided that I just wasn’t feeling well (true) and decided to go without me. I didn’t wake up until noon.

It still feels like it’s about two in the afternoon for me. -sigh-

7~ Mm hmm, I didn’t know you had a child!! Unless you mean all of us, of course. Although, I’m not sure if I’d even do that well at MA, I’m a horrible student that distrusts anything that smacks of school. Even though I’ve technically never been there.

Well, tomorrow I’m going on the first day of school field trip for a small school that some friends have (as in, it’s their school). We’re going to a water park. Apparently “waer park” means something totally different in Wisconsin than it does in Maryland. In Maryland what I take it to mean is a place with lots of rides, like roller coasters that go through the water.
Here they seem to think that it means to go to a lake. Makes sense, really. Around here when someone asks where you live/are staying they ask it as in “what lake are you near?” I feel so weird here. Even though I do love WI, it’s just not the same as home.

75~ Probably a good thing.

I’ve discovered that when walking alone in town it is much easier to put on the persona of “yes, I know where I’m going and why. Even if I look like a total freak I’m not so stop staring” if I’m drowning out most of the excess noise with an iPod. Easier to ignore people if you don’t have to hear ’em. *is still a country bumpkin* Hmm, maybe this’ll be good for my “acting skills”. I love being dramatic, so why not use it in a practical situation? I still don’t like being in town, although it’s getting easier.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I’ve not really read the blog that much, urgh, many posts and new threads since I was here all of two days ago. I’ll catch up. Eventually. Maybe. Whatever.

So, as you can see, I’m no longer totally depressed about being in Wisconsin, altough the situation I’m in is largely the same. Only better, the library is open again. That’s a good thing. Way good.

I’m also having a hard time focusing today. I was really tired earlier and never really did get caught up on that, I was running on a root beer float high for a bit, but now I’m crashing again. Maybe I won’t try to go all the way around the lake. Never mind, I might go to the park later and read Canterbury Tales in the swing set. If they have a swing set, I can’t remember.
Whatever. Maybe I won’t. Maybe I’ll see if I can find anything on tv that isn’t Hannah Montana, the Jonas Brothers or spongebob. Eew.

I love the sanity of MuseBlog.

76- You do know that sanity and MuseBlog are antonyms, right?

Well, I know that most of you guys have never experienced hurricane season. But this has been one to remember… so far. Fay churned up all of Florida except my area. Gustav is currently tearing up the Louisiana area. Hanna is gonna go up the east coast of the US. (Heads up if you live on the east coast, this one’s going all the way to Maine) Ike is heading my way but won’t be here for weeks. And Josefina just formed and who knows what it’ll do. *sigh* What fun!

On the brighter side, life is good down here. I (obviously) haven’t been on for a while, and… uh… well I geuss that’s all.

I had my first ever high school class today. It was okay, but sort of weird, because most people in the class were two years older then me, except for S and K, from my soccer team, and they weren’t at my table.

So, yeah. It was weird. Oh, and I really liked doing my math homework, even though it was kind of boring. I actually would have done tomorrow’s homework too, except I couldn’t.

86- Hurricane: My area (Up near NYC) hasn’t been hit hard since 1938, so we’re waiting for the overdue catastrophe. I’m kind of sad about that, and the fact that if global warming rises sea level any I’ll be underwater. I can see why it’s silly to build on the water, especially directly in the dunes, like those rich people over on the East End. But I’ve also decided that, paradoxically, I don’t think I could live away from the water.
So I need a houseboat.

Google Chrome: Google’s new cutting edge browser.
I’ve just begun to try it out, but I’m using it right now, and it is very interesting. They’ve turned tabs into something on a whole new level of interactivity, and although it’s still in Beta, anyone of you could use it. I can’t wait to see some sort of Firefox Chrome hybrid baby that has all the stability and addons of Firefox, with the new breakthrough design and possibility of Chrome. There’s also a comic online that explains how they’ve made it much more crash proof.
Bonus: Remember the shrinking comment box escapade? In chrome, you can change the size of the box!

Soccer practice today! Yay! Sadly, I strained my leg muscle. And even worse it’s my left leg. I strained it while playing soccer at school. We play all out soccer. No referee. Fouls every three second, no one cares, handballs, no one cares. So, I was with the ball, jumping over unintentional fouls, slides, and fallen people, and all of a sudden, this kid in front of the goal, he shoved me, my foot slipped on the ball, and I just avoided a broken leg. He didn’t even know how to play soccer, and he intentionally fouled me. Luckily, there haven’t been any really serious injuries. I’ve prolly gotten the worse of them, being the goalie and mid-field. There is this one kid who can do a bicycle kick. It’s insanely awesome. Another punted it out into the field (we get about 1/16 of the size to play soccer on during recess) and it went all the way into the creek.

He gets tuna sometimes though. So let’s just say we have one to simplify things. And then we got a kitten. And then Willy died. And then we had one. And now we have another. So we only have two. Plus Fred, whom I should go feed now.

Well, most of us just got home from school.

I had an okay day. The entire school went to a nearby natural area and hung out all day to celebrate the end of the first 6 days of school. Then we got back to school, where each team dressed up in their costumes (my team wore lab coats and colored safety goggles) and went to the gym for fear factor. It was so disgusting. They had to eat pig’s feet (!!!), horseradish shakes, and Spam/Sardine sandwiches. Yuck.

Then, my friend S (who got second), got some of the Spam sandwich stuck in her braces. Double yuck.

Oh, and there was a dance after that, but it was absolutely awful. It was 10 minutes long, and they played a total of three songs: Thriller, I Like Big Butts, and some song I had never heard of.

Hello, I’m still alive, I’m sure you’ll be sorry to hear.

Well, lets see, what have I been up to? *thinks* Okay.
I did not go to the water park, instead I went to Old World Wisconsin with my Mom (who got the day off because her brother took grandma into Madison instead).
Yesterday I mostly sat around the house and was bored. Mom went to a friend’s house that evening to see some of her high school pals and grandma and I went to the session at the Irish pub. Mom convinced her that it most likely wasn’t going to be a bunch of people getting as drunk as they possibly could, instead it was just to play music, so she relented (although her first reaction was, “Eew Fern, you don’t actually want to go to a bar?!?!?!?!?!?!”).
I did play, and it was fun.

So, how’s life with you? I am, at present, unhappy.
I just walked two miles for absolutely nothing. I thought I was going to be able to go to the library, but it was closed. Another walk back. Grr. I shouldn’t say nothing though, I gained being totally sweaty and now know that the library closes early today and tomorrow. Grr again.

So, how goes the MuseBlog?

Luckily, though, I have the whole weekend to relax! Well, not the whole weekend; tomorrow night I have to house-sit (alone!) for my friends. Which mean I’m going to be all alone in their big old creaky spooky house. I’ll probably spend the whole time watching Hornblower and fall asleep on the couch.

I was watching this cool show on the History channel about these guys who found lines in the Torah that may predict the future and stuff. OK, not a good explanation. Once a page was found in the torah and vertically, horizontally and diagonally they found the passages “The Towers” “Bin Laden” “they will be crumbled” and “2001” in the same page. The people who found this also found pages that state that Hussein was hiding WMDs in the Beq’aa Valley in Lebanon and also that the world will end in 2012 when a comet hits the earth. Its total bullcrap, of course, but its kind of interesting.

In other news, my family in Baton Rouge, LA have no power and a tree fell on top of the house next to them. My grandparents live in New Orleans and went to stay with them during Gustav, and when they got back, it turns out that their house suffered no damage and that they would probably have a better state of living if they had just stayed in New Orleans- which is pronounced New Orlins, by the way. (Just to clear up some debate on the Accents thread. Although locals usually say N’awlins).

My mom is making honey cake for Rosh Hashanah and it smells freaking awesome.

149) I lost respect for the history channel when they started putting on shows like “HISTORY OF HOT DOGS” and “STUFF THAT COULD POTENTIALLY HAPPEN”.It’s all such sensationalistic programming for the most part. A shame, since they’ve made a lot of good shows in the past.

Hi!

Just stopping by to let you know I’m still alive.

I’m crazily busy and don’t have a lot of time to blog, even now. Sorry.

I’m throwing together an announcement I’ll post right after this, and then I’ll be flying to a couple of other threads. I don’t know how much time I have left on the computer.

By the way, T. S. Hanna went over today. Lots of rain (I measured 3.5 inches) and some gusty winds. Some leaves and small sticks down, and some tall plants are still leaning South

You’re friend,

ATTENTION ALL SEEKING JOBS IN MUSEICA AND ZEMTEE: NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!

MUSEICA

Museica is a nation in the â€œMuse Worldâ€. We have created a form of government and a Constitution. We run the country and solve problems that arise.

The Nation is divided into Nine provinces named after the Muses. Each is run by a Governing Muser (GM). We need to elect 6 new Governing Musers, one for each of: AEIOU, Bo, Crraw, Feather, Mimi, and Pwt.

There are three Prime Musers (PMs) who look after national matters. We currently have all three of those positions filled.

There are three Chief Justices, or CJs. We need to elect all three.

And thereâ€™s the House of Commons (HoC), of which every citizen excepting those who hold one of the above positions is a member. The HoC creates and votes on laws.

If you would like a position, submit your request on the Museica thread (Click here) and you will be put on the ballot for the next election.

ZEMTEE

Zemtee is a nation of sorts in the â€œMuse Worldâ€. Here we also have a form of government and a Constitution, and we also run the country and solve problems that arise.

In Zemtee, there are Nine Great Chiefs, Nine Governing Chiefs, and 3 Chief Justices. All positions are empty, and we need people for the House of Commons as well. All interested please head to the Zemtee thread (Click here)

Thank you,

Red-tailed HAWK

But sometimes it does happen with friends, anytime at all. It just comes out of nowhere. Maybe this is puberty. Nah, I was nine when it started. *sigh*

163- WHOA.

So basically, here in [snip] we didn’t get a summer, remember? We sat around wearing wool sweaters with the heat turned on in late August, and didn’t go swimming even once. But now that school has started and condemned everyone between the ages of five and eighteen to spend seven hours every day indoors, we get a whole week of glorious sunshine. It’s sort of like Indian Summer, only minus the regular summer.
But I like it, even though it’s late.

Anyway, I made good my housesitting prediction, or part of it. I didn’t fall asleep on the couch, but I did spend about four hours watching Hornblower episodes. It’s so nice to see them on a regular screen. YouTube is so pixely.

Hey.
I actually got to see Grandpa yesterday, he said it was okay for me to come to the hospital, so I did go. I’m glad I could, it was hard not being allowed.
Better news, he’s home today! They picked him up and he’s home now. I just came here for a little bit because I assume he’s going to be resting, and Grandma doesn’t need me underfoot. I carried everything in from the car, helped out with what I could, and now I’m out of the way.

So, that’s pretty much all.
Umm, and I played my concertina for the first hymn in Sunday school, but that’s not really that exciting. We got a message last night at 11 that if I wanted to bring an instrument to play one of the hymns that would be great, so this morning I practiced for a few minutes and brought it, three flats was not going to go over well with the fiddle, sorry.

Ugh, I’m tired. Way tired, I got to bed sometime after midnight, I don’t really know when, and then had to get up early-ish for church and took a walk with a friend and now I’m just tired in general and all the noise on the playground is bugging me this is a really horrible run-on sentence so I’ll stop now, and by the way- alphabet soup isn’t very good cold.
Wow. Aint’cha glad I’m here?

144) I’m sure it’;s normal. Earth Science will do that to you. No, seriously, if you think that you’re depressed, it will make you more depressed. I would keep on goin and make sure to smile. Always smile. It makes everything feel better. At least, it does for me.
Besides, you’re not really depressed if you care that you are depressed. When people are truly depressed, they don’t care, at least, that is what I’ve observed from various depressed peoples.

158) Oh. really? I’ve never had that problem. I’m sorry. I’m probubly not that much of a help. I’ve never had that problem. I’ve never felt the urge to be utterly gloomy, to think very dark thoughts, or write disturbing poetry. *shrug* Am I weird?
Well, anyway…… *hugs Zinc* Just keep your friends close and know we Musers are always here for you!

176 – Actually, I think I found some clay. I went downstairs to where my room used to be (most of my stuff is still down there) and got a bunch of random things that I haven’t played with in years, but will be waaaay more interesting then sitting in front of a computer for 8 hours straight. (Not that I don’t love Museblog, but it gives me headaches after too long. :()

But then I realized I didn’t have anywhere to put all my random stuff, so now I’m in the process of cleaning my room. I don’t mind cleaning my room, as long as I do it on my own terms without somebody breathing down my neck.

Anyways, that’s what I found to do. Thanks for the offer of the clay, though. I may have to take you up on that if the clay I found proves unworkable.

Random how-to of the day.

HOW TO COLOR POLYMER CLAY
1. Take a chunk of white or light clay
2a. If you have regular pastels on hand, scrape off some with something sharp, like a razor, and make some colory powder
2b. If you have oil pastels, scrape some off and mash it up into a colory mashed-up goo
3. Knead your colory powder or goo into your white clay
VoilÃ ! Colored clay!

It’s fun! I’ve tried yellow and purple so far.

190~ Meaning?? Is it as Meow said, that gays are banned from boy scouts? I mostly look at gay guys as just another person who’s not going to ask me out, so what? I would only be afrid of a lesbian if she were stalking me or something, but I’d be afraid of a guy doing that, too. So whatever, why would anyone be afraid of that?

I’m tired. Again, still, whichever it is.

197-I don’t think he’s saying that gay guys are bad, but I think they are banned from Boy Scouts. Not sure, though.

Seriously, the whole BSA “you have to believe in God” thing is just stupid. You don’t have to think God exists to like nature and sports and whatever else.

Hello. I am here. I have school. Homework is controlling my life.

The ads on myspace stalk people. They are always related to your profile or comments. I have a friend named Keith that I talk about a lot, and my ads are always about famous people named Keith. My friend is wiccan and hers are always trying to sell me rare books and crystal balls.

I like the song “The World Should Revolve Around Me” by Little Jackie. It’s like a girl power song. Haha!

I’m reading Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. It’s probably going to take a while because of school, but I think it’s really interesting so far. I’m around page 115, and the part with the rain off the coast of France just ended. (is there a thread where we can spoil this?)

204- Hitler was an IDIOT. He is the reason that Germany got such a bad name. Germans AND Japanese people were sent to concentration camps HERE. Although the conditions weren’t that bad, here, BUT THAT’S NOT THE POINT!!! My grandmother grew up during WWII! I oce read her a story about a girl that gets sent to a concentration camp, and she got all upset and had to go lie down. I’m ranting, but more than HALF of my heritage is German, and I am REALLY sensitive to people saying “Germans started WWll!” Then I correct them by saying that the Nazis started WWll, and then I get into an argument. And another thing- the Germans did not WILLINGLY fight in the Rev. War; the mercenary Hessians were FORCED to by their kings. And in WWI, they went to the aid of Austria because they had made a pact with them! They were trying to honor a deal! Geez LOUISE, people, GET THE GERMAN STEREOTYPE OUTTA YOUR HEADS!!! GERMANS NOW RUN WONDERFUL MUSEUMS, HAVE WONDERFUL CASTLES, AND ONE SCIENTIST FROM GERMANY TOOK UP ABOUT HALF OF AN ARTICLE FROM MUSE!!! PELICAN JAWS! PARROT FACES! STRUDEL BRAINS! MUFFIN HEADS! WAFFLE NOSES! MOUTH BREATHERS! BIG FAT JERKOS!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, so today, I biked home from school, I’ve got this huge heavy English textbook, and I stop in my mom’s work and I’m like, “Hey mother, can I put my backpack and huge heavy English textbook in your car so I don’t have to bike home with ’em” and she’s like “fine” and I’m like “cool” and then I hang out with my dad who’s in town briefly and drink Dr. Pepper because they don’t have root beer and then I go to this stupid online math orientation thing that taught me NOTHING and we get back to the pub* where I left my bike and I’m about to ride off and my mom’s like “hey Alice want to fill out this survey about the riverfront” so I’m like “sure” thinking hey a chance to rant about trying to bike in this town and of course the survey has nothing to do with that and I get all confused and eventually I go home and rant to Mother about the miseries of adolescence and then she’s like “hey I’m going to the country for the night” and I’m like “okay” and she leaves and I take a nice hot bath and then I’m like, “okay, where’s my backpack?”
And then I realize.
It’s in the car.
In the country.
Fifty miles away.

*My mom works in a pub, as I think I mentioned, but kids are allowed until 10 PM.

I got a new, absolutely rockin, CD today. I’m listening to it right now… so that was good. I started a new school today, it was pretty good. I ran into a bunch of friends from ages ago.

gotta go jam with the CD on the guitar now.

I don’t have time to read the entire thread, nor thoughtfully comment on everyone’s posts, but I just wanted to share something:

I have been riding my bike to school this year. I have to wake up a 1/2 hour earlier, but it’s definitely worth it. Just getting outside early in the morning is a really fantastic way to start the day, and everything is just so quiet, happy, and nature-ful, even if you live in a very urban area, like me.

I would recommend riding a bike to school to EVERYONE. I live 8 miles away from school, and a ton of gigantic hills lie between my house and school, but the exercise is really great. It takes me 40 minutes. If I took the bus, it would take me 30 minutes. (It depends on which bus, though. The 30-minute bus only comes in the morning, so in the afternoon I take a different bus and it takes over an hour because it doesn’t take the busway.)

Here are some suggestions for others who might want to bike:

1. Get a rack or a crate or something to put on the back of your bike. They’re easy to attach, and can carry backpacks, etc. My bike has a rack on the back, and I bungee-corded a crate to it. My backpack is usually around 30 pounds (yes, I weighed it), so this helps a lot. Beware, though, you must keep your weight balanced near the back of the bike to account for all of the weight of the backpack.

2. Get a light and/or reflectors. I leave my house at 6:30 am. This week, it has been relatively light outside, but since the sun is still rising, I use lights. It will just continue to get darker as the weeks go by, so lights are important. A flashing red light is great for the back of your bike — you can attach it to your backpack or “crate,” and if you have reflector strips those will really help visibility and make you safer. A light in front helps, too, because it helps you see in the dark. And always wear a helmet.

3. Your city/town/place of residence may have designated bike trails. It it does, try to utilize them. Even if it means you might have to bike a little farther to get to the trail, it will be much more fun to ride there than on streets. It’s also safer. When driving on streets, make sure you use hand signals for turning and always keep your eye on the cars. The majority of my ride is on really busy streets, and it’s especially important to ride carefully if it’s dark outside. When you’re riding on any street, stay at least two feet from the curb/edge of the road. If you’re riding in a particularly busy area, ALWAYS take up the entire lane. It’s very dangerous if you’re riding too close to the edge of the road — cars won’t give you enough room when passing you, and they could force you off the road, which leads to serious accidents.

….that’s really all I can think of right now, so I’m going to get back to my homework.

216- Sweet, so do I! -virtual high five- I’m only 25 minutes away if I take the flat route, and the route that would otherwise be quicker isn’t since I have to walk up the hill that is our Town. But it’s like, four miles, so it’s really great. Also I leave at the same time as I would to catch my bus, but I get there about fifteen minutes later and I can leave school as soon as I get out, instead of waiting ages for the bus to get out (conversely, I can stay after school if necessary and not miss my bus).

1. I have a bike basket which I put heavy books in sometimes, but usually I just wear my backpack. I would put a crate on the back, except that I just have a fender and I don’t want to break it. My basket’s pretty much huge anyways.

2. Wow. I haven’t yet experienced riding in the dark (I leave at 7:15), but tomorrow I have auditions which could go on for a while so tonight I’m going to install a light on the back. And yes, I wear a helmet.

3. We do have a trail, which is nice and flat, but of course it’s not a bike trail only, and it takes a longer time and at one point you have to get off and walk so as not to get your bike stuck in the cracks of the pier. Not to mention the railway tracks. And all the old people walking their dogs. But it’s more fun than riding on the road anyway, and of course it’s against the law to ride on the sidewalk. However, on the highway, there aren’t any bike lanes, and it feels dangerous enough on the sidewalk, so I never ever ever ever bike in the street. On the side streets, I bike, and try to obey the rules that I don’t know. I always mix up my hand signals and generally come away feeling like a menace to the public. Plus, in order to not go against the flow of traffic, you generally have to go up at least one hill, often very steep and lacking in a sidewalk. What are we supposed to do THEN? Walk in the street? Or bike on the sidewalk? It doesn’t seem fair to me that pedestrians have their own path, and cars have their own path, and bikes are only allowed on the cars’ path, which is VERY DANGEROUS especially if you’re too young to have read the driver’s manual.

I’m sorry. Very sensitive subject. I’m going to put on some nice warm socks now and do my homework.

Very funny story, do not read if you have liquids in your mouth:
Today my English teacher showed us the three plants he keeps in his classroom. He named them Tilda, Igor and Benjarmin. He says that they are indestructable because this was the first time he’d watered them since June and they were still green. Last year their vines grew halfway around the classroom on string loops hanging from the ceiling, but they stopped growing because they were growing away from the light. One vine stopped right under the Gumby toy that my teacher displays on his chalkboard.
His exact words:
“They turned back because they were afraid of Gumby. One night, Pokey jumped on the vines and beat them up.”

216/217- I haven’t ridden my bike to school yet, because it’s getting repaired. I might get a new one anyway, because my old one is really old, but anyway, I don’t know if I could. You’ll have to talk me into it, because I’m not sure I would want to have to get up earlier everyday to cross streets and such. I walk home everyday, but get dropped off, so I guess that evens things out a bit. Hmm. Should I bike both ways, or walk one way and get driven the other?

222- Bike both ways. It really gives you a lot more flexibility. You don’t have to rely on your parents to drop you off at the right time, for one thing. Biking is a lot faster then walking, and while nothing is more relaxing than a nice long walk (well except for curling up in front of a fire with a book ), if you add a backpack or inclement weather, one’s desire to be home increases dramatically. Or at least mine does. Plus biking is cooler and more independent.

I liked living about a mile from my high school because I could walk there or back easily and therefore, despite not driving until the week before I left for college, I was fairly independent. Besides if I was feeling /really/ lazy there were city buses. That and most other places were also reachable by bus.

Hey everyone. Walking, riding bikes, hmm, what a topic. I want my bike. I really want it. I’ve been walking in town a good bit lately, and I wish I could ride instead, the traffic is really tame compared to home, lol, these midwesterners crack me up sometimes. I remember my grandpa complaining about “all the traffic” when we had three other cars on a back road that was actually a main highway………. I found that amusing back then, and I still do.

So. Let’s see, what’s new for me? Nothing. Not much anyway, perhaps such a minuscule amount that I myself have failed to notice it.

If you have time to sightsee I reccomend the science center, the ROM (royal Ontario Museum), The BATA shoe museum, and there’s a Polich festival this weekend (if you’re there that long) which sounds pretty cool. anyways, enjoy. The CNTower is over rated. have fun!

208- yes i can. i also think you are absolutely right.

I have realized my life’s calling. It is to be a host on TVO kids. it’s a childrens chanel for week days and on the weekends and evenings it is called TVO and has really cool stuff like miss marple mysteries. Anyways it would be the coolest job ever. For improv club at my school we are trying to come up with a name. The Team (which competes) and the club (which is just for fun) are the smae thing this year. My suggestion is “improvination” because there are so freaking many of us. what do you think? please cross your fingers, I hope my suggestion gets chosen.

there is, in the town I’m in right now, a beautiful Queen Anne’s style house. It would make an excellent Muse Academy, it’s near an apartment building that could serve as dorms, has several towers and is glorious in general. I had written up a great long post about it, but it got deleted, poo. Anyway, I got a few pictures of it and when I get home and get around to it I’ll send them in.

(HAWK, I’ll get them to you as well, it’s the building I was telling you about last month.)

Okay, I’m going to go now or in a little bit, the computer is acting weird and I’m annoyed at it. Grr.

202- Your not the only one.
Sadly, my mom thinks my addiction is bad. But it isn’t. For nobody knows anything about me here, yet you guys know more than anyone does. All of my friends don’t, no, strike that, CAN’T have conversations about Global Warming other than “I want to save the polar bears!” and such. They can’t talk about World Domination as if it were an everyday thing. They can’t add onto my stories, and I can’t add onto theirs. They marvel at the word “serendipitous” and think Molecular Gastronomy is the most boring thing in the world. They can’t have long, intelligent conversations with me about evolution. Or just listen to my rants, or talk about how much I loved a book. None of them have read Jonathan Strange & Mr.Norrel, can you believe it? They can’t talk about Star Wars with me, because most forget what the whole thing’s about, even if they just watched it 50 million times.

OK! Hello again everyone! Well, tonight, I probubly should have gotten more homework done, but it’s all for my Environmental Science class and that stuff isn’t due for…….
Assignment 1: 2 weeks
Assignment 2: 2 weeks
Assignment 3: Next Monday
So……… yeah………. and my Math homework was really frustrating tonight. My mother, the all powerful math teacher broke down trying to figure out 3 of my word problems. Of course, the good thing about discussing math with my mother is that I usually figure the answer out for myself by just talking about the problem. That happened for 2 of them. That last has everyone stumped. My math teacher is evil. My mother’s only response was that she hates word problems and has tried her best to dodge them throughout her career as best as she can.

237~ Not happening. I hate them with a bloody passion and always will. Yes, Robert, math does suck, contrary to the title of that book you pointed out once.

Soooooo. Not much has changed, did you expect it to?
I’ll be playing music tonight, that’s something good to look forward to, I’ll probably take my concertina too, it’s a pretty tame session, and they need more variety…..

Umm, and that’s about it. That and I’ve gotten used to crossing streets. Yes, at the age of sixteen Fern is finally not terrified of crossing streets alone in town without stoplights and walk signs. She can even walk now, as opposed to running and resisting the urge to scream. Yay me, and about time I may add.
Such goes life. I wonder if the library has Muse? We’ll be here until, Sunday, and I really, really want my Muse. And Cicada, and Cricket. And my bike, and my own comfortable bed, and, well, home, really. *sigh*

I have a new textbook. Es muy grande.
OH! OH GOD! My Spanish homework! -dies-

Anyway, I think I offended someone in Global Studies today… We had this assignment, which was to look at four topics (Global Warming, Abortion, Gay Marriage, and War) through the eyes of the four worldviews (Secular Humanism, Cosmic Humanism, Communism, and Christianity). We were doing this in groups of four.* Anyway, there were three of us who all basically agreed on the topics, and then this other girl, who was Christan, pro-life, and anti-gay marriage. We got along all right, I guess, until we got to Abortion, when she said “All life is precious” or something like that, and I tried to convince her of the horrors of factory-raised animals, and if all life is precious why does she eat factory-farmed meat, eggs, and milk?**
So yes. I hope I didn’t offend her too dreadfully.

* I feel that four is an important number in Global Studies. Did I tell you about the four key questions?
**I eat meat, eggs, and milk too, but all from small local farms.

252~ I have the one that is yellower. the large printing shows up well, because it has darker lines around, but after “the Lady Bunniful and Master Paul of Swinford” it’s hard to read, and that one can only get of they’re standing close and squinting a bit. The small wording isn’t as important, so it doesn’t really matter, but it would be nicer if it was a little darker. I love the drawings though, and they’re placed nicely, not in, umm, the wrong places, if y’know what I mean? Which is nice.
The design as a whole is nice and balanced and falls in a nice place on the shirt, it is light enough to not be really stark, but clear enough to be seen. the “Mostly Harmless” and “Muse Academy” ones are great, but I’ve noticed they fall a little low and are hard to see, at least on my girls’ shirts because of where they fall and how they fit it just doesn’t work as smoothly as it could. I’m not sure that you can control that though, can you? If so, maybe put those designs just a little higher, just half and inch would do.

Probably more information than you wanted, but there it is.

242) That was one reason why my mom doesn’t like them. She says that almost all of them are pointless circumstances. Like you could tell that the people who publish the textbooks are really having to work at finding something, ANYTHING to fit into the situation.

246) I don’t know. That’s how I used to look at it. bUt, actually, I kind of miss it. I liked my teacher, and all the kids in my class worked just perfectly together, I mean, everyone was supportive of each other. And we just all had fun with it. And, I mean, I’m awful at athletics. I must be the slowest runner in my grade and it’s not because I’m over weight or anything, because I’m not. My feet tend to go in, which effects my physical performance. Of course, I found that I didn’t have to be a good athletic in that class. Any liability I had was made up for with determination. And I even found that there were a few things I actually excelled at! Mostly defensive playing. So, seriously, if I had a chance, I would definately relive that class.

259- Look! A cameo!

258- The “I beg to differ” shirts came about when POSOC said he wanted a shirt that said “I beg to differ,” because he didn’t like school or something (I’m sort of unclear on that). Rebecca made one. And they’re awesome.

I haven’t been on MuseBlog in a while, have I? Meh, school.

Actually, school has been awesome. I love my school and friends so much, and June is going to be just miserable.

But, yeah, right now it’s going awesome.

Yay, Friday!
Yesterday was the first track meet of the season and I did okay. I don’t really have much to say.

actualy, today wasn’t so bad. In English we were analizing the first paragraph of one of (i think) James Joyce’s short stories. I was talking about what I though was the symbolism of the disused distillery. when I finnished the teacher just stared at me and said “you just predicted the end of the story.” I thought that was funny, as I hadn’t read the story.

I bought, wait for it, TWO sketch books today, for the price of less than one. there was a huge sale. yaaaaay! now I can do the art I was waiting to do.

I have an exciting weekend, I will ntell you about it when it has ended.
