Putting a raindate on fun~

On this faithful Wednesday, I had an early morning Biology exam with 100 multiple choice 15 matching and 10 short answer within the span of two hours. Of course I completed with ease and speed since I did not write anything down for short answers and guessed my way through all of the multiple choice. That is how true champions do things. For one of the written explanations, I described macrophages as "really big phages". This exam was only worth 10% of our final grade and I knew I was going to pass the course anyways so I decided not to study. Upon completion of the examination, we ventured down to the music rooms. At the music rooms I bumped into Luna and Ella. Ella and Luna had their choir auditions that day so I wished them the best of luck. After a while of frolicking in the halls I went home to get my running shoes for the first day of TJSL (Toronto Juniors Summer League) for ultimate frisbee.

Upon my return to school I proceeded to the food courts near my school. I met up with Ella, Luna, and Ping. It was Lan's birthday and I was supposed to meet up with them to play ultimate, hence the running shoes and shorts I was wearing. However as fate would have it, Sky went to the mall with a friend and Lan went to lunch with his Biology teacher. I was left alone. In wait of their reply for plans of regrouping, I talked to Ping, Luna, and Ella. Eventually Luna and Ping left as the rain came and it was decided that TJSL was canceled for the day. It definitely "rained" on Lan's party. So as I waited for their call I spoke with Ella as she awaited her mother's vehicle. We hadn't had a personal conversation in such a long period of time due to summative evaluations and examinations. We talked from four to five thirty straight just talking and talking about everything going on in our lives and things that have been on our minds. One idea would branch to another and eventually it'd be time for her to leave. I cannot tell you the contents of the conversation but I can truthfully say I was very glad I had that conversation with Ella. It brightened up my rainy day because I missed talking to her so much. She was one of few people I truly opened up to.

As Ella go into her car and left I had to sprint across the sidewalk and neighbouring school to get to the bus stop that would eventually take me to Lan's house. However it was raining and raining hard it was. As I reached the final light, the bus I needed to take just passed by. So I waited. The Brimley bus would not be considered particularly fast but it would no doubt come. That day is seemed like it would never come. Three of the same buses with the same number went down the other side of the street before mine had come. If I did not know better I would've thought the bus driver was driving around in circles to mess with me. By the time I got to Lan's house we played Devil May Cry 4 a very fun action RPG game, and some mahjong. For the first time I also got to play Punchout, and we play a bit of Rockband because we all love Rockband so much. unfortunately I had to sing. Being the brilliant singer I am, I sang under expert I am and still managed to pull 90's. It is such a shame that I have no ability to sing in real life.

As the clock struck nine, we bussed to Korean Barbecue where we would meet our fellow "home boys" to have Lan's 18th birthday dinner. However, it was scheduled for 10 o'clock and we arrived at 9:35 PM. Therefore, we waited outside like hobos and did stupid things in the rain. When everyone arrived we went inside and ate. During the course of the dinner all Sky, Pwner, and I did was sing songs performed by Flight of the Conchords, and say that's what she said after every single sentence we found humorous. At one point a girl said to Lan, who was pocking the palm of his hand, "Stop that, it's annoying." Sky and I automatically screamed "That's what she said!" and everyone at the table bursted out in laughter. At one point during the dinner I was so high I did the Spongebob magic routine, where you link your index and thumb of both hands and then "magically" have one of the circles formed enter the second circle. This was accompanied by catchy background music produced by my mouth. It was of course a lame act that I would've only done if I was extremely high. The night went well and I arrived home at 12:35AM. Lan had somehow come up with enough money to pay for all ten people. What I had bought Lan for his birthday was a hat I designed myself. The lesson I learned today is that gifts arn't measured by how much it costs but how much it means.
