I'm posting this because Sammy requested me to update my blog.

Today was the last day of school for the year 2012. I can't say it wasn't fun. Although it turned sorta ridiculous at times, like for example, when nuns suddenly danced with parols. My God. That was hilarious. Today was also the last day of exams. We had our test in Algebra yesterday. I'm going to fail, I just know it. I am not being pessimistic at all. Actually, I'm quite the opposite. I've been optimistic since last week. So that's cool.

I am feeling mildly dejected. It's probably because I won't be seeing another human for three weeks. Family members aren't considered human. They suck out your soul. Anyway, I really hate last days. They make me feel so melancholy and I would have trouble sleeping for a week. I get really overwhelmed about how I could miss a group of people so much. It's only been a few hours into Christmas vacation and I just want to go back to school. What can I say? Annoying people grow on me.

So over the course of the next few weeks, I will be updating about boring events and realizations that I will be having during the break. Let's all thank God that I just bought Emma by Jane Austen so I'll probably be posting about that soon.

7 days til Christmas
3 days til The End of the World

It's the last day of September! Someone wake up Billie Joe Armstrong! Okay, I realize I've just made the corniest joke of all time. Forgive me. Insanity has affected 63% of my brain.

So, I bought The Family Fang by Kevin Wilson last Friday. It was brilliant. I'm not even kidding. It contains a lot of bad words and other mature adult things so if you are my age and your parents are conservative, best not let them know you're reading it. Anyway, the book is about the Fang family and the parents, Caleb and Camille, they're these eclectic performance artists with a whole different view on contemporary art. Their children, Annie and Buster (Caleb and Camille call them Child A and Child B), have long since left them to their own devices. But, when their careers and lives have come crashing down on them, Annie and Buster are forced to retreat back to their parents' house. Basically, they all have an insane time. So in conclusion: KEVIN WILSON IS A GENIUS. GO READ THE FAMILY FANG NOW.

I wrote a depressing two-line poem about the going away of Ms. Rivera, our temporary English student teacher. Here it is:

Let's all wallow in despair,

Dig a hole and die there.

Pretty deep, huh? I'm kidding.

I haven't had anything to blog about so I'm very sorry for the lack of interesting things I put here.

Here's a tradgic GIF of a cat and a balloon to make up for it.

Hell Week is over. Basically, every exam week is hell week. Okay, maybe every week that isn't summer. Ha-ha. Anyway, it's been a shit Saturday so far. I was actually supposed to go "jogging" this morning with my parents, but, the rain was a bummer. My dad's been changing his lifestyle. He's dead set on getting thinner. I'm just going because there's a Saturday market where he jogs and he says there's a load of food there.

FUN FACT TO CHEER YOU UP: You are dying right now.

So on to other things, you'd think that a solo artist with no backing band on concerts would be boring. I mean, I think that. But, apparently, one man has proven me wrong. I watched Ed Sheeran's iTunes Festival performance and he is amazing. WATCH IT HERE NOW!
